I hope that this can become some kind of reference for potential buyers, and I don't care how it stacks up to the nexus family. I know it's fast, i know the gpu is 72 cores, I know the front camera sucks, I know it's 1280x800, and I know that it has a stylus. I just have a few questions.
DOES IT GET HOT? - I have had an atrix 4g and an optimus 4x HD (tegra 2 and 3 respectively) and I need to know, from a USER, will I get overheat followed by godawful thermal throttling if I play, let's say, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite or N.O.V.A. 3 for 45 minutes plus? 2 hours? And how hot DOES it get? The 4x hd would reach 65 to 70 degrees (cpu) and as much as 56 degrees (battery). To the point where touching the back of the device instilled a feeling of alarm. This is my biggest point of hesitation on the note 7.
THE RAM - I know the ram has insane speed. (1600 ddr3l) Even so, it's still only 1gb. I will often Skype or hangouts while playing my games, maybe even swap back and forth between a couple browsers and craigslist, still during the games and Skype. That all happens on just 2 gigs of 440mhz ram on my note 2. Will this be possible on my evga note 7? Or will I have to adjust my multitasking?
I/O (storage speed) - Friend's generic Chinese quad core tablet (irrelevant model) gets awful storage speed, which will bottleneck his relatively nice quad core CPU when he runs intense emus, like Drastic DS or ppsspp. Emulators like this, as well as games that take up extra large amounts of internal storage like Modern Combat 4, are pretty much all I play. Do I have anything to worry about? Will this be a point of disappointment for the tn7?
Thank you all for your patience for a new and nooby user..
