Keep Note 2 or get nexus 4

Definitely. Look up some comparison videos and you'll see what I'm talking about me

Yea I pretty much decided to, but what I am thinking about doing now is trading my iPhone 5 att 16gb unlocked for a nexus 4 and some cash. I don't have anyone yet that has offered, but why keep the iphone 5?

Also I am feeling really good about getting the note 2 after seeing what Samsung offered up with the S4. I think the note 2 is still better than that.
 
Ok cool thanks for the info. Like I said I had the gnex and the battery life was not great so I am use to bad battery life. If I can get a normal days use out of it then it might just come into play. The only problem is the Google play store is saying 2-3 weeks before shipping on the 16gb model. That is a long time to wait if I had to return my note 2 this Saturday.

I ordered my n4 16 gb tuesday at 10 pm , while it said 2-3 weeks on the site, it will be here tomorrow

My friend has a note 2 and its nice and huge but the time I had to demo it side by side with the n4, there was virtually no difference in performance ...

The games that pushed the gpu looked identical with zero frame rate or slowdown issues

Exactly I was shocked but the better for me still have an awesome device that can keep up with anything they release maybe until the note 3 but I don't care.
 
I have pretty much eliminated touchwiz with nova launcher. Of course the setting and things like that can't be changed, but all the cartoon looking icons and things are gone. I also still feel like touchwiz holds the note 2 back. It could be so much snapper to do things like the nexus 4 is. Like I said a lot of the features are super useful and I would miss them, but there is another hand full of them that are crap and add unneeded bloat that slows the experience down and adds lag. Like you said in terms of LTE it can make up for some of the lag because it make browsing and anything using data super fast. I am on AT&T as well, and if I got the nexus 4 I would keep AT&T. That would mean data speeds would be just ok if not average.

Of course...Your comparing HSPA data to LTE, and on at&t theres a world of difference. Now T-mobile is a different story, my speeds while not as fast as LTE for the most part are still pretty darn fast in NYC, I see 15mbps down on the regular...lol that just fine for me when away from wifi, and it's fully unlimited for $70 a month!
Good in my book.
