Note 2, buffet screen, bigger battery, expandable memory and Samsung in my experience are easier to root and mess with. With the games out now more memory is needed if your a gamer. The external to internal memory swap has been the best thing ever for me

Note 2 wins because of bigger battery and SD card support. I'm picking mine up today!

Hands down...Note2. I moved from a OneX to the GN2. I thought the display difference would kill me. Not so, if you want to have decent batt time you have to reduce your brightness to around 45% on the OneX.
The Display on the Note2 is absolutely gorgeous. The GN2 is jammed packed with features that just are not on the DNA. Plus, I have access to SD card and Battery.
What it really comes down to is simple..... Carrier and Network. Consumers released their findings..Verizon has great cust service, AT&T has the best 4g network. I have a friend that has a DNA. Everytime he gets near me, he asks if he can play with my GN2. He said calls are clearer and the GN2 is faster.
Im settled for the year..this GN2 is going to be hard to put to sleep by the competiton. Next year Sammy is going to have displays out that will blow the LCD3 out of the water in Res, clarity, Contrast and Brightness.
This is the first device ive owned that is NOT plauged with bugs, gremlins and problems. Its a pleasure to pick up and use.

Dont they both have 2GB RAM?

But anyway, ive messed around with the Note2 and its simply amazing and thats why it gets my vote. If i didnt love the perfect package my S3 offered id switch over in a hearbeat.

Games dont get stored in RAM. The internal memory of the Note right now is 16gb only of which 10 or so are availbable for use. After Spiderman, Batman, Nova 2 and Dead Trigger thats about it. By using the external to internal swap i now have 64gb internal. I was just saying with no memory card slot thats not even possible on the DNA

What are you talking about when u say external to internal swap? I also have a 64gb sd card but the way you describe it seems like I might be able to install apps on it. Is this what you mean?

There is a way to flip flop the internal memory to external memory

That's what I said in another forum but no one had a clear answer besides the processor but in real world use its not noticeable
