Hi Guys,
I made a 2 part video comparing my HTC One X with the Samsung Galaxy Note... Hope it will be useful
These are just my 2 cents
Ash
I really liked ur video...How was the white brightness on both and the contrast?

The one x was brighter bro but the notes got better blacks
Was wondering how the GPSs was on both phones. HTC is well-known for having great antennas in their phones whereas the Note (as well as GS2) have questionable GPS(but still better than GS1). Thoughts? How is the headphone audio for both phones? Which ones louder, better quality or both are relatively the same?
So far, you've nailed a lot more topics than expected. Those are 2 I actively look for in phones so some clarification would be appreciated.

And what about the COLOUR SATURATION and CONTRAST?Does the onex looks like WASHED out when compared to note like all other ips panels?
I am really in a big problem of buying a phone,and My preference is not colour accuracy,what i want is the awesome contrast and the poping colours of amoled.Thats why i am a bit inclind towards the note and also its BIG screen! !
Heres a link:-

On the above link the screen of onex looks more saturated than note
How is this possible that too to a ips panel?
I heard a lot abot its pentile,resolution isnt what should a 720p should show blah blah,,,,does it affect that much?My uses will be gaming,watching videos,browsing etc but NOTMUCH ebook reading.
BTW me too from india
I think the size of the screen of G Note makes the difference! For better I mean
Nice!
I think one x will be better than galaxy note if htc fix the browser bug

They are different.... especially in terms of size. galaxy note is huge and I would't use it as my primary phone .

GPS - Sorry bro, havent checked really so no idea on that and my htc is in the service centre so I cant check it now
Headphones - With bt headsets the HTC is of better quality (by a very thin margin) but as far as volume goes both are almost equal, I cant tell the difference as to which ones louder...
Hope I helped bro

Hah glad to meet a fellow indian
I know on paper the full rgb of the htc is superior to the note but I dont find the note inferior in anyway and for movies and games the true blacks of amoled just makes everything pop and I love it... the one x is amazing outdoors, the whites are better... its definitely a brighter screen.... I love em both but for movies theres no phone that id choose over the note

Hi. I use a sgs2 i9100, wondering if galaxy note is worth it. I need bigger screen for big thumbs /keyboard. Or is HTC one X the better? No amoled, smaller battery and screen, but higher screen DPI count.
The Note cost around 900usd
Please let me know what you think if you have a g. Note and had a sgs2

why dont you go see / try on hand.... for me its dam big, but by reviews its one of the most applauded device. i know many people who used it now have hard time going back to smalller screens.
Go for the One x or wait for s3.
Note is similar hardware to s2 aside from screen and higher processor speed but is huge. Seriously have you seen it? If screen size is your primary objective then you won't go wrong but ..
Depends on resolution vs bigger screen too. You get more screen real estate on an HD screen which neither the s2 or note have
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
I liked the note. Size isnt really a problem for me. The biggest negative fact was that the pen doesnt work on the capacitive keys. If size and the s-pen are a big necessity for you, id say go for it. Personally, I didnt find it worth it compared to the SGS2.

A workmate here has a Note and its a really nice phone. As everyone else mentioned, it seems quite large though but anyone I know who has one loves that feature. To me, its just a larger version of the SGS2 with a slightly faster processor with an S-Pen.
Depending on what you're looking for and your timeles, we are currently into that cusp of the quad core releases so you could always wait for HTC One or possibly SGS2.

yeh, I should, as these days one can try the phones (remember back in the day when all you could touch was a dummy phone?). But no need to. I know the size and weight. Actually I had a HTC Desire HD, it was around same weight. It is about the max weight, it was one of the many reasons i dumped the DHD and went to SGS2 (protruding camera lens was as well)

Sure I've seen it. Haven't 'seen' the HTC one X though. Im wondering if 'super amoled' is worse that SGS2's super amoled PLUS. I've <mostly> read the SGN does last longer than SGS2, even though it has 5.3" (+1") screen.
Oh, so hardware is pretty much the same as the SGS2 ? does that then mean:
-headphone/jack audio volume just TOO low ?
- microSD/internalSD/externalSD/memory and those folders like /emmc is all messed up ?
If those problems are on the Galaxy Note, then I might skip it, and look at the HTC One X. Only, I don't like I cannot put a 64gb microsd in it.

Well, that's a kind of shock, the pen doesnt work on the capacitative keys ? On the other hand..those buttons are okay for a big thumb. I had a Nokia 5800, and lost the ridiculous stringy plastic stylus many times. (typing on its' 3.2" screen w/o stylus was a fight).
I'm not sure waiting is always good, it means more 'research' on more/newer models as usual, and yet more considerations..and waiting. At the moment I have no time, but by summer, yes, that would be great. So I can hope for a price drop on SGN . Wonder if there's gonna be some sort of Galaxy Note 2 ?
I also use phone (SGS2) for viweing boks, pdf's, and more, so a rise in DPI screen resolution would be splendid. The other choice I am comtemplating is to get a cheap netbook, but I'm warned that they are not up for the thing I do. (yet the SGS2 does it) Neither is it time to buy a notebook/tab for me right now. As the fiance has 3 damn notebooks, i'd like to stick with a PC and a phone, and skip any net/notebook/tab. Those are much more than 178 grams
thanks for the advice, If anyone can comment more on the particular display, super amoled vs super amoled plus, or simpler said SGN vs SGS2 displays.
does the huge 5.3" comsume battery like crazy, is a 2500mah battery inferior for that big semi-tablet phone?
is a step back from super amoled plus to super amoled hd bad ? they are both pentile matrix displays ?
The SGN does have 'HD' as in half-HD display (1280*800 = 720p), and it records full-HD. Correct ?

This is not a real review just an honest one from a real person cause i feel most of the time these phone makers pay these companies to make the phones just seem better during reviews like when iphones always get the better reviews on every much better android phone its only what i and 7 of my friends think that jumped boat from the gs2 e4gt feel about the new evo and i don't expect anyone but the gs2 e4gt owners to understand this:
Screen:
*CONS-I really like both of these phones but when i got my evo yesterday and compared it to my gs2 on youtube videos and pics i could not help but to notice that the gs2 still has much better colors and just looks better period i still like the evo screen until i see them side by side then the evo looks as if its color has been washed or faded.in my option the gs2 e4gt wins hands down but i still like the evo,i tried different brightnesses as well but still so so.
*PROS-The evo has a much sharper picture due to being HD and all but not always noticeable.
Camera:
*CONS-i have seen so many reviews and commercials on how this camera is so great not the case im not trying to be the one to spoil this but if you came from the gs2 e4gt you would notice it right away,i used my micro sd from my last phone and seen some of my older pics from the gs2 e4gt and they look amazing and then i took at least 20 pics with all types of high settings and lighting and these pics are grainy and just not as good when compared hands down.
*PROS-This camera i has pretty good quality for the speed it takes the photos in.
Overall Phone ui:
*CONS-None so far
*PROS-The ui is clean and fluid much more than the gs2 e4gt because it was real zippy but never fluid so the evo wins this.
Thank you for this. I still have an ET4G and am thinking about getting an Evo lte

I agree my sister has a gs 2. I don't even think it's close the Samsung is way too colorful looks fake, oversaturated. EVO looks like my hd tv
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I notice it as well, I have the ET4G and the One X from At&t.
While the colors seem a little faded after looking at the samsung, they seem more realistic and clean on the One X.
The ET4G- Colors are bright and almost silly, looks like crayons. Font is HUGE even when changing it with apps, it doesn't change it all and it looks bad. This is definitely a nice phone but if there was such a thing as "smartphones for kids" then this would be it.
HTC One X- The most clear and clean picture I've ever seen, it was so nice I thought it was fake..like one of the display phones. The font is small and clean..I realize this has to do with resolution as well.
I know people are gonna go crazy, but as far as speed goes.. in everyday use I really can't notice a difference from the 3D to the ET4G to the One X. I'm not into running benchmarks and all that silly stuff because if I have to use a special app to tell me my new phone is faster, then the difference is extremely small.
Like i said i only expected the gs2 e4gt users to understand not someone that never owned it or just someone that looked at a gs2 or that saw a review and is repeating what they heard this is for the owners of the gs2 that really know what i mean.After using my gs2 even my Samsung led 55" tv looks bad the gs2 is the closest i have ever seen to real life colors on a screen.
Overall i still like this new evo but im not sure i feel like i used my upgrade wisely

Because other users may have jumped from et4g to the LTE? And he was sharing his thoughts or may be curious.as to others thoughts that own.one?
I still have my Epic 4gT and I agree blacks look more black but to me the colors do look emphasized. It's going to take us E4GT owners a while to get used to the new screen on the EVO. That being said I think the screen on the EVO is hands down better, its just more accurate AMD realistic. Camera is awesome on both devices, I'm not going to choose sides cause it really depends more on the photographer yielding the camera at this point (Evo takes way faster shots though). I can slightly tell the Evo is faster and Im a sense lover so nuff said. Now what I will say makes the Evo the better device is build quality, voice quality, and kickstand. This thing is solid, wich is the complete opposite of the E4GT. These are my opinions and may not be the same for you. But if your on the fence go ahead and get the Evo its future proof unlike the E4GT.

I like this new evo but after coming from the gs2 i feel like my new evos screen has no soul and colors look so blan and black looks like a dark grey i even thought my phone was defective but my friends phone is the same,someone would have to pay me to say this screen is better than the gs2 screen.
im not trying to be an ass just let down,pics taken on gs2 look sharper and the colors are much closer to real life and on the new evo they are good quality but not better and not even close to real life color,if you have both phones test this out in a lit area.
The screen is very important to me coming from the gs2 e4gt and i just cant get over it really might return this cause i dont want to waste an upgrade.

Hey some people like their colors brightter personally samoled screends make me feel like I'm tripping but only when looking at that phone. Lol to me that isn't real life looking to each his own though.
Can any one please confirm me that what are the advantages and dis advantages of the display of samsung galaxy s III? I've seen that many people are complaining about the display. But I think that the display is the best for now. Am I right or wrong? please say with detail
I think other people who's complaining about the pentil display were either a troll and jealous or just pretending that they could see those pixels and tell that the screen sucks!

Yes agree. it isnt matter of the resolution becouse our eye cant see the difference in res. on smallers displays, its the matter of quality, contrast and the technology of the display and for now AMOLED is the best.
Was it really necessary to start another thread on a matter that has been discussed to death.....have some consideration for the moderators who have to constantly scan these duplicates

@ op
to answer your query,
s3 has the better contrast,color saturation than any other mobile in this world.
s3 has a sharper screen than any other mobile in this world except hox(hox is sharpest).
s3 with 100% brightness is not on par with note or hox , it comes third.
I compared my Galaxy S3 to my Xperia S, the S3's screen looks over saturated, is that normal? Xperia S screen has more realistic colors. so bad that my S3 is more expensive
Super AMOLED ....

I did that, I played on the settings but no luck. The funny thing is that my Xperia S has 50% brightness, and it's more sharper, more realistic than the S3.
Man, I'm impressed with how many people that buy things without a LITTLE research.
For me, Super AMOLED is the best screen ever.
I just love the deep blacks and bright colors. I don't care that it doesn't look "realistic".
If you search a little bit, you'll see that super amoled oversaturate colors normaly.

The price of S3 drops down fast! It's getting closer to Xperia S price (I don't know if it's the same from the other countries), but here in my country, it's almost the same price now.

Of course it's sharper. It's a smaller screen running a higher resolution (720p rgb stripe vs pentile).
I can't comment on the colours, but I've usually had my sgs 2 and 3 set to the 'movie' preset and colours are pretty decent.
I myself dislike the Xperia S's screen. There's just something about it that doesn't look very clear to me. But that's just my 2 cents

Do you have an Xperia S? Please post if you have both phones and are very familiar with it. Again I respect your opinion but please post if you have both phones in your hand..
Well first of all I don't know why did you even buy a S3 if you have so much criticisms for it. You owned an Xperia S, which is a relative new phone, and you simply bought S3 when it came out. What does this tell us about you? That you know nuts about phone and when something screws up because you didn't do any research on it, you simply blame everyone else but yourself because you bought the phone on impulse, because of advertisements.
Everyone of us has our own preference. Your phone lags, that is probably because of the user, who is you. I rooted my S3, and even before I root, it doesn't even lag a second. And yes I used Xperia S before, I saw it in my face before deciding that it is not the phone for me and decided to go for S3.

I bought an S3 to know if it really beats the Xperia S. Now I know plain and simple Samsung is a "BIG LIAR" a company who put money on advertisement alone, but producing cheap phones. Regarding the lag issues, I visit one Samsung store just earlier, I tested their phones and mine also, same issue, my phone and "Samsung's store phone" has lag issues, now can you say "that is probably because of the user"? Xperia S is much smoother!

in that case a little research before buying would have enlightened you to the fact that amoled is known for its saturated colors, and a simple look in your phone settings would have led you to how to adjust them

You know sometimes "to see is to believe"
Damn, so all those reviews about how quick the S3 is must have been paid for Samsung marketing.... We've all been duped!!
I found a couple of G2 photosets on flickr. They look better than the older leaked photos.

Post any other pictures and videos you may find. I know some of you suckers already have the G2 from AT&T. Let me see what you're made of.
Thanks for the links! I am very interested to see how the camera compares to the Note 3. And these pictures look pretty good!
I was definitely going to get the Note 3 until I read it doesn't have OIS, now I am considering the G2... And the price is pretty good also. Only $575 off contract vs $725 for the Note 3 on AT&T.
Yes, those pics look awesome!!

No it doesnt, Note 3 has digital image stabilisation.
Yep, and in my opinion there is HUGE difference between that and hardware OIS...
Makes so many more of my pictures keepers.

Well I saw this yesterday
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Camera-shootout-Note-3-vs-Galaxy-S4-vs-G2-vs-iPhone-5-vs-One_id47239
I can't find any definitive proof that the Note 3 doesn't have OIS. The O in OIS stands for optical, so there is no such thing as a digital OIS. That's just simple image stabilization, without the O.
Nvm. Poopoo it doesn't have it. I wasn't planning on getting it anyway. No one bothers to mention it besides dpreview. At least I can rely on them to get the camera specs right.

So far the LG G2 is my fallback plan. The Xperia Z1 has established itself as having an awful camera, and screen, and is big and heavy for a small 5". The Note 3 is more of the same. I am sick of my cheap ass built Note 2 with squishy cover. No plans to upgrade to the same thing. My only hope is the Oppo N1 comes out to be amazing, and has a killer camera. All other companies have laid out their disappointing hands.
Any real world photos yet? I know a few of you have this beast

Yeah, I'd love to see more actual user pictures also!
I would like a bigger screen than my HTC One, but I really like the camera on it and want to see what the G2 is capable of....

There are already a bunch of shootouts and comparisons out there. The HTC camera has only 4MP so it looks blurry no matter what. It couldn't compare to 8MP cameras, much less the newer 13MP ones right now. HTC also has very bad processing with weird colors and heavy sharpening and noise removal. It was one of the best low light shooters on Android, but the G2 can compete with OIS, and has much better resolution.

Most of the pictures I've seen are from reviewers, not average users and that's what I'd like to see.
Just because the HTC One only has 4mp doesn't automatically mean blurry... I'm a crap photographer which I'll readily admit and I've got some great shots on the HTC One by just pointing and clicking. Here are a couple examples... If the G2 can do better, I'll be really happy with it! I'm tempted to head to an AT&T store this morning.

You are right in a way. I have HTC One too but pictures become blur as you start to zoom-in because it is only 4MP. Whereas 13MP on the other hand has 3 times more detail in the picture. And to make the point clear, in a common user perspective G2 can blow HTC one out of water (in camera).
A quick pic I took in my office yesterday. Auto settings, didn't change anything.

Some pics from yesterday, not really trying just pointing and shooting. Also i had changed my lcd density without setting the xposed framework to put the camera back at 480 so auto focus was confused the entire time.

Those look really good for just point and shoot! Thanks!
One more from breakfast today, its still overcast outside. (Coast)
