Hi everyone , i will finish highschool this year and i need a new phone and i cant spend 600 $ every year so i need a phone that i can carry around for 3 years ... i don't play games just surf the web and i need to take quick notes. So i have chosen 2 phones . 1st. Samsung galaxy note 2 (i know , cheap plastic bla bla i will buy a case) and 2nd LG Nexus 5. So quick notes battery and to hold for about 3 years. Thanks guys:D
Well I have a note 2 and it is a great phone. I would say maybe the note 2 as it has a bigger screen for typing and if you keep the stock rom it has a number of stock note taking features. The nexus 5 on the other hand is pretty and you would get the latest updates. Also as it is a popular phone you will have no problem finding cool mods for it.
Well i dont realy care for the looks and i am not so good at mods so i think i will go with the note 2 :D thanks
I would say note due to the Tethering functionality though the nexus series is still a great choice for on a budget high performance devices.
I think samsung is really perfect on you ,cause in Finland where i live there are several people switch using it not only for their samsung huolto but also the quality of mobile phone.
The Nexus 5 is an excellent choice. As a bonus, there are companies in China that produce hardened glass screen protectors that you can buy for about $8 on Ebay.
Reasons to consider the Nexus 5 over the Samsung Galaxy SII:
- Higher resolution screen (1080p vs 480p)
- Larger Screen (5" vs 4.3")
- Better processor (Quad core Snapdragon 800 Pro vs Dual Core Samsung Exynos)
- Better Graphics (Quad core Adreno 330 vs Quad core Mali 400)
- More RAM (2GB vs 1GB)
- Newer iteration of Android (4.4 vs 4.1)
