Haha nice steady decrease
Couldn't see the S3 replacing the N7 though, totally different ball game.
Got the HOX here which I don't touch at home, the Nexus is a little gem

Means squat without screen time.

Have you been giving your phone any attention since you got your N7?

I don't know about you guys but I haven't been giving my phone ANY attention after I picked up my N7. I love this thing. I have the galaxy s2 skyrocket and it doesn't even compare to the joy I get out of my tablet.

it does now cuz jelly bean is now on it(;
I do, because I also got a SGS3 within days of it, making it 2 new devices. LOL
Nope lol.
And after a good while on my Tablet, When i pickup my SG2 if feels like its shrank lol.
I start to struggle to look at the screen and text lol
My Trophy, about the same as always ( I love my phone & the fact it runs WP7!) I have though dug out my old HD2 & flashed ICS to its nand memory as I have very little experience with Android and am loving it, I love being able to mess around with settings & tweak stuff, is making me more excited to get my Nexus 7 with all its quad core JellyBean goodness!!
Lol I know I have to squint when I look at the phone now. Also my s2 doesn't have HD screen so it looks like crap next to my N7. I love this thing.

Isn't the nexus the same as the N7? Pretty much I mean. I heard somewhere that its kind of like a blown up nexus running jelly bean? I never played around with a galaxy nexus.

My phone has lasted for 3 days without charging (since I got my N7)
First time ever
Yes and praise baby Jesus for that. Before this I was constantly checking the evo lte forums for some jelly bean, or even just some aosp love. The n7 has definitely distracted me from that. Now I just pick my phone to see if I have an lte signal

Interesting, mine is slower, about 3 times. Im on 4.1.2 now, not rooted. FB, Fliboard crashes all time. Screen is minimum and flickers again, battery cannot go over 4 hours. Internet speed, well cannot compare it with SGS3, meaning slower. In one word, very disapointed with this device. :banghead:

This phone destroys the Nexus 7

I got a nexus 7 for Christmas and don't even use it because of my nexus 4. I mean sure it has a bigger screen but it's slower and with the latest Paranoid Android update the screen on my nexus 4 is better as well!
I have a top of the line laptop and top of the line smartphone. Where does a dated tablet belong in this scenario? Maybe I could use it to watch Dragon Ball Z at the gym. Or load it up with porn and use it as a mobile fap station.
I think I'm just going to sell it, what do you guys think I could get for it? It's a mint 32gb wifi model.
Thanks a ton XDA!

You can't compare a phone with a tablet, but still I understand what you mean. The Nexus 7 is a value for money tablet with feature pack functionalities, but the screen is not up to par.

Why not use it for porn? Sounds fine to me. 7 inches is a usable size for anything sex-related (badum-tish)
the nexus 7 is much better for gaming(especially tegra optimized games) then the nexus 4.

dont think theres anything right now the adreno 320 can't handle. i mean come on, the unreal engine demo (epic citadel) ran on 60 fps on the N4. so it doesn't really make any difference. and the screen on the nexus 4 is significantly better than on the nexus 7.

My mate ran the spiderman man game on his nexus 7 and it lagged slightly, yet on my nexus 4 smooth as butter, yet it lags with vice city maxed out, not hard lag but in high intensity areas
But a lot of games are optimized for tegra and have added effects and graphics. I don't think he meant that it can't handle it, the nexus 4 is way more powerful. But games look better on the nexus 7.

Maybe wait for 4.2.2, because 4.2 runs like crap on Nexus 7.
I've noticed too that I'm not using my N7 much since I got the N4. For me though, it's more of a convenience thing. I kept close tabs on where the tablet was before I got the N4, but now I'm not caring as much where my wife leaves it.

Good decision. If not using it, sell it.
However, I use n7 more than n4 at home. I love my n7.

I absolutely despised the N7. Hated the screen, headphone out sound quality, and the build quality. I bought an iPad for my tablet needs. Most of the time you get what you pay for with the Nexus 4 being an exception. It's a sweet piece of hardware that's definitely under priced.

The Adreno 320 is way faster than Tegra 3, that's not the point. Gaming is still better on a tablet than a phone. Unless you have to tilt the device a lot .

What phone compliments the nexus 7

Currently using an iPhone 4s alongside my nexus 7, OK its nice to have best of both world type devices, but I would like to use my nexus to be able to use mighty text type apps so I think its time to grab another android phone, got an option locally a guy wants to swap his galaxy note, but I'm thinking this is pretty close in size, what would you recommend?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Galaxy Nexus all the way. The Nexus 4 is too fragile and not worth the hassle in my opinion. Sure it has a quad core processor and 2Gb of RAM, but honestly.. who uses that on a phone.
I would recommend the HTC One X, but seriously... After some of the stuff HTC have been doing nowadays, I struggle to recommend HTC.
I have an original GNote and can't imagine having any thing else. There is a bigger difference in size then you would think.
And remember "When you go Note, 4 inches is a joke".
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I am finding N4 compliments N7 greatly. Basically you get some great raw power on both devices, but the tegra in the N7 give way for different, but complimentary usage. Tegra exclusive games run with great power, while N4 runs non tegra with even greater power.
Maybe it was a design decision so that both devices have equal usage. XD
Well screen size is also a factor. I am not so interested in watching video on the N4. Still I find myself using both devices at once a lot. N7 definitely being the couch/bed lazy movie viewing device.

Anyone thinking about switching to the Nexus 5?

I was offered a trade for a 32gb Nexus 5 for my Note 3. I was wondering if anyone is also considering this. I am stuck between the two. The only thing thats keeping me from doing the trade is that the battery is awful on the Nexus 5. Just wanted some opinions on this. Thanks
Nope. U getting some extra cash (I mean 399 vs 650) cause straight trade doesn't make sense, might as well sell the note and buy a new nexus
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
Yea..uh..Nexus 5 is a cheaper phone. No way
sEnt from thE noTe 3
Definitely not worth the trade... If you wanted to you can just buy one used in a month for probably less than 300 and have both phones
agree with everyone here. just read all the reviews on both everywhere if you're still unsure. note 3 is still the best phone on the market. i was in your shoes too deliberating between the two and picked the note 3; very glad i did.
I'm sold on the Nexus 5 after I persuaded my coworker to get one, but I wouldn't even consider trading my note 3 for it.
The truth is I'm having some awful luck with my note. I'm on my 2cd device and I can't seem to stay connected to a wifi network. Plus the home button on both went from perfectly pushable to a sunk in button I have to mash with my fingernail. Sammy definitely didn't hit a home run as far as build quality imho.

The Nexus 5 looks like a fine phone for the price. But my Note 3 has worked flawlessly, and I'm happy to pay more for the bigger, higher-res phone.

That's weird, I've had zero wifi issues. I'm using the 5ghz channel of my buffalo ac router. I also tested the 2.4ghz and no issues.
This thread is all kinds of wrong. First the Note 3 is worth a considerable amount more than a Nexus 5. Second, this phone beats it in some important categories including screen, battery life and features.
And last but not least, stock Android blows. Especially the latest version with those big and ugly icons. Stock Android is super boring to me and too light on features.
Just my opinion but don't do it.

Even with the bloat I think the Note 3 is far superior to any of Nexus devices. I even think the S4 is as well.

Battery life on the Nexus 5 compared to the Note 3, is night and day. The N5 can't even last a day, not even close.
And I still love the deep Plasma blacks, and vibrant colors of AMOLED screens, I've seen the N5 in store, and it looks washed out in comparison.
Plus more RAM on the Note 3.

Making a phone with that small of a battery is like putting a 3 gallon gas tank on a car...almost not usable. 3,500-4,000 mah should be the standard on phones these days. You would be very disappointed with the trade.

Erica Griffin from YouTube did a mini review of the Nexus 5 and she was only about 3:30 uptime, 2:20 screen time and she was at 26% battery. It's a joke and even she was saying the same pretty much.
If you are a moderate to heavy user in any way, why would you even consider the Nexus 5?

I just returned my nexus 5 today. It's hard to use anything with a non amoled screen after you have used a phone with an amoled screen.
The nexus 5 camera was also horrible.
Sad part is, I bought the nexus 5 and gave my wife my note 3 and now she won't give it back, so it's back to the sgs4 for me
