I have seen a few comparison video shots, and the OIS helps a lot. the g2 looks smoother. but the note 3 has 4K (not many people have 4K tv's. so that is a useless feature to most of us). i like the video feature track and zoom, since you can record a big picture and yet focus on an area specifically.Picture wise, from what i have seen, they are both even.equally fast to open and take pics/videos. but i will give the g2 a win.
