Samsung Galaxy Note II -vs- iPhone 5?

I had Android phones before Sprint got the iPhone. I liked them, however hated the TERRIBLE battery life, and plain styling back then. (Had the Epic, Evo, EVO 3D, etc.) I also hated how they always froze, and had problems.

I got the 4S the day it came out for Sprint, and up until the day the 5 came out (Got that too, obv.), I didn't have a single problem, never froze, reset, etc. Same with my 5, but unfortunately there's still no jailbreak for it. Everyone knows, the stock iPhone UI is kind of plain, which is why I jailbreak it.

I was browsing the Sprint site, and saw the new Galaxy Note 2, and love it. The specs seem pretty competitive, if not better than the iPhone 5.

Can anyone give me some real reviews on it who's played with both? Please don't bother if your an Android fanboy or Apple fanboy. I don't want "samsung is way better f*ck iphone" you know? Thanks!

(Eligable for my upgrade, so i'm considering getting one)

I have used both, the Galaxy Note ii actually has better battery life, also faster processor, more expandable

it also has NFC support, and a significantly larger display.

This is a very very good question and I see where you are struggling deciding. I own a review site and so I have played with both. Both phones, (in the Note's case - mini tablet) have their ups and downs. If you are looking for something that is user friendly and small and very easy to use; definitely go with the iPhone. On the other hand, if you want something with a huge screen and something to show off with and use for nearly anything - on the go, definitely go with the Note. (the Note's battery life is really good, considering how big it is.)

Personally, I can never come to buy an iPhone just simply because they are so simple to use. People say that the iPhone is for stupid people, I wouldnt go as far as saying that but it is for sure just too easy to use and it doesn't make you think at all. But in the end its up to you, I gave you my personal opinion and the pros on each phone… I guess its time to decide.

I have done a lot of research on the iPhone when i was comparing it to the S3.in the end i decided to get the S3 because of the bigger screen, better battery life and the performance is better.

The Note II is better then the S3, thus, iPhone < S3 < Note II.

I'd prefer the Galaxy Note 2 for a bigger screen and the amazing S Pen. It has a powerful hardware and much better battery life too. If you' d like some flexibility (free apps, expandable space, etc.) then buy the Galaxy Note 2. However if you'd like something easier to operate, the iPhone 5 is easier and more user friendly.
