Several questions for those owning the Note 2

[finn5975]

Hi all. I read all 15 pages of the 'ask a question' thread and searched the others for answers and am left with these questions:

1. How is the screen at max brightness compared to the S3? I found the screen on the S3 to be dim.

2. How are the colors reproduced for accuracy on the Note 2? Would you say they are close to natural? Or over saturated?

3. Do you find that any pics you have brought over from previous smaller phones show less detail or are pixilated on the larger screen?

4. I am curious, if you take a screenshot on the Note 2 which has the huge display, how well would it look if then viewed in a smaller device?

5. Has anyone taken video at a loud venue like a concert? I am curious how the sound is on the video from a situation like that.

If anyone can answer any of these, I thank you so much!! I am SO excited for this phone!!

This guy talks about the screen here and says that he used to have the S3 and compared it side-by-side with the S3 screen

Haven't found a video talking about that yet.

Haven't seen mention of this either.

Most of the videos I've seen are usually fairly quiet, but I will try to take video next weekend. I'm going to a concert on the 27th. From what I've seen on the all of the test videos, it doesn't filter sound very well. There was a comparison with the iPhone 5 camera (for video recording) and the iPhone 5 seemed to have a much better ambient noise filter...but then again, the reviewer didn't mention if he went through the settings to adjust at all.
