Well its time to get a new phone, i have been drooling over gs3 but now that i can get it im not sure if i should wait for note 2. will Note 2 have same features as gs3 just bigger screen?
 
I would wait for the Note II honestly. Especially in the US. It's a giant International Galaxy SIII only with integrated LTE radio.
 
Its personal taste I suppose, I don't know the Note 2 specs but I do know that I wouldn't want it as it would be too big for me.
If you want the bigger screen, wait.
If not, then get the GS3.
 
The SGS3 and the Note 2 are like comparing apples and oranges.
the Note 2 is like a mini computer, the SGS3 is a smart phone.
so what do you want? a mini computer or a smart phone?

Are you okay with the size of the note series?
 
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 vs Samsung Galaxy S3: Specs comparison

Samsung Galaxy S3 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (updated)

As you can see, chances are that the actual differences between these two smartphones will turn out to be not that important. Personally, I think of the Galaxy Note 2 as a bigger version of the Galaxy S3. Reports claim the design will be similar, the specs are rumored to be similar – and these rumors are backed up by logic as well. If you have small hands or don’t usually watch a lot of media on your smartphone, the best decision would be to get the Samsung Galaxy S3. If working with a 5.5-inch display and carrying a device with a fairly larger footprint is not a daunting task for you, go for the Galaxy Note 2. If the Note 2 follows the path we can forecast, the decision will surprisingly be that simple to make.
 
It is not only about specs this time. Note 2 is a huge phablet and not a phone per se. If you are ready to carry that around, go for it.
 
I love that Note man. I'm running my business while on the road - in the backseat of a car most of the time, I believe the size will help me.
Seriously considering trading my s3 when it comes out. They keep their value here in Indonesia. Can swap my s3 for a note 2 if i pay 45 euro extra. When it's released I will hover around the store for a couple of hours and try to get a feel for the thing.
 
I made a mistake buying the GS3.

...not that I hate the phone, but now I want the Note II.

So, I will be selling my GS3 in November and paying the ridiculously high out-of-contract price for the Note II.

Yeah, and then Motorola i will come out with and Intel CPU and you will have to buy that and so on, and so forth.
 
i have a Motorolla Xoom that i love so i really dont need a tablet. I guess i dont wanna get gs3 then turns out a missed a major feature in note. the size dont really matter to me as long as its top tech if note 2 is gs3 with better screen i guess ill go with gs3
 
From speculation, the Note 2 will have the same 1280x720 resolution. Which kinda sucks. The same resolution on a bigger screen.
