for me i know maxis 3g is great. how do u think i online so easily and often on lyn. credt goes to maxis 2.6mbps in most places and stable

2.6mbps lapsap......

but hor but hor... i can't really appreciate the maxis 3g leh... seem the speed still not as i suspected...
and then 1 dumb question, do we need to set the phone to 3g/3.5g mode to get the max out of the broadband?? i always on power saver mode currently and it only connect through gsm, will this affect the internet speed?? as till now i'm still wondering why we need to connect using 3g/3.5g other then video call??

summit..

rely on GSM max out u get EDGE speed... .. UMTS(3G/3.5G) run on different frequency...

But I never on my 3G on my phone.. except tethering...

to conserve battery use gsm mode certain area can achieve up to edge speed.

for nokia n8 for internet browsing will be under utlized. even load engadget website takes forever. so nokia n8 useful for 3g calls only

for n900 its fully utlize i can load website as fast as on computer using 3g. when load video the red bar load so fast.

sharing from my experience

Meaning to say that the browsing experience is inferior?..or that it is too powerful to b doing mediocre job/like web browsing?...

ohhhhhhhhhh..... so from what i experience i can get GPRS & EGPRS all these time...
ok ok... i will try dig deeper into those later... mean when we tethering it would be great using the 3g/3.5g to get the full internet speed...

@sklchan.. ya.. u are.. if ur place have Digi 3G+ coverage.. may get a bit faster experience.. but dont put too high hope on those HSDPA network..


Fuuu.. Digi smartplan with Asus A1 now.. real Garmin experience..... running Eclair...

depend on the network cap like digi easy plan cap at 384kbps. celcom prepaid also 384kbps but they are usually unlimited

edge speed if i am not wrong can achieve 238kbps and 3g up to 384kbps and 3.5g up to 7.2mbps or more

correct me if i am wrong

then hor... won't it be better we set the mode to dual mode in N8 so no need changing here and there?? (of coz not in power saver mode lah as it's predefine fixed setting)... not sure how smart N8 handling dual mode as my previous 5800xm quite dumb as it prefer more to connect through 3g network and when we travelling around the network mode keep switching and MOST of the time causing the phone "hang in term of connection" where can't receiving incoming call or msg... then sometime it hang with the network connection "zero signal strength" although we know the network signal is strong...

Sifu2..please comment on my shot

nice contrast photo

It will only make the power consumption worse.. once u are out of 3G coverage.. ur phone keep on searching for it all the time...

if u try to read ur user manual... u know the different of power require by UMTS network and GSM network.. a big different....

I said before.. like my phone.. wt 3G.. less than 1 day.. sao pei... without 3G.. about 2day+....

i'm disabling the power saver mode now and set to dual mode... let see how it perform later...

anyone trying NOT to reboot their N8 for VERY long time?? i'm still not testing on that and from what i've observed the RAM will getting lower and lower if u let the browser keep on for pro-long period also the sosial apps running at background....

hi guys, got some questions, if i turn to GSM only, the N8 wont try connect maxis 3g rite. cuz sumtime it auto connect.. i dun want when the bill came to me, it will be so expensive~

not exactly sure about symbian^3 mean of GSM there... but gsm only do include EDGE.. which still cost u data.. gprs too still data.... still can give u bill shock....

agree 110%.... i am on DiGi

auto connect is the same 2g , 3g wat g it will still auto connect.

under web and option set it to always ask so u will know when your phone tries to connect

i am using unlimited data + multi sim
