QUOTE(benny888 @ Jun 14 2011, 09:22 AM) It is usually display that consumes the most battery usage is it a bug or does it really consume so much battery ? I did a test last night. Charged 100%. Shutdown and pull battery and wait for 5 mins. Turn on phone and disable data. Went to sleep and this is the resultsAndroid OS n android system can be reduced using cook roms. Default Rom takes a big portion sometimes up to 20 to 30 %. On cook Rom averages 5 to 10% Left with 96% after 7hrs plus |

QUOTE(DJFoo000 @ Jun 14 2011, 12:29 PM) lol don't obsess with battery usage la people. thanks a lot for the replies. Yes I'm not obsessing with the battery consumption in fact in all the android devices i've ever used SGS II is currently the best !!! Absolutely am in awe with its capabilities The battery usage is in percentage. It shows usage relative to each other. It does not show whether a certain app is eating a lot of power. It just shows how much more power it is using relative to other apps. An analogy for this is like me spending 50 sen on a candy, and RM2 on nasi lemak. In total Nasi Lemak is taking up 80% of my spending, and candies 20%. The comparison is relative, not absolute, meaning in my wallet there could be a RM100 note, so the spending is insignificant (relatively). |

QUOTE(mezzi-quan @ Jun 16 2011, 04:52 PM) well........im sory if i had offended you guys about my reviews on the sgsII, but wat im trying to say is jz dat i had actualy expected much more from sgs2....im nt trying to critisize sgs2 but i expected it to b at least on par wif the a5 chip...............sgs2 was previously dubbed as the 'most powerful phone in the world' when it was released and definitely i would had expected much more from sgs2, but it was released wif a tegra2 instead of other more powerful chips(mind you that tegra2 was released ages ago), and we had seen tegra2 getting pwned by other competing chips so badly....... out of curiosity is there any software that fully utilises any of the dual core power at the moment ? when you mentioned that powervr > adreno > tegra2 > mali ... is it based on pure benchmark figures or real world tests ? I believe the majority of consumers are not so concerned about pure numbers and rather feel the difference in processing power doing their day to day task ...n mind u, the a5 was released months ago in the form of ipad2 and i5 wil use exactly the same thing as that, n dis gives samsung a few months of head start to catch up on a5........n u shuld nt compare sgs2 wif i4 since they r both diffrent generations, instead the previous sgs1 was much more powerful than i4..... i am a huge fan of galaxy s n the reason why i skipped buying lg optimus 2x which is the first dual core phone is becos i wanted to wait for sgs2 n i expected much more frm sgs2 .......but instead the oni diffrence nw between sgs2 n optimus 2x is the SAMOLED screen n 1gb of ram........ n theres oni curently few types of chips..... ..powervr(ipad2 n, i5) > adreno(htc phones) > tegra2(optimus2x, sgs2)> mali(sgs2 exynos version)........cn u imagine the disapointment of seeing the much hyped and awaited "most powerful phone" sgs2 comes wif the lousiest chip........after waiting for so long....... long gone the days of galaxy s phones being the "most powerful phone"............ i am nt trying to condemn sgs2 or create trouble here......nor am i a fan of iphones .......i am just very disapointed that sgs2 didnt live up to its expectations, i dun mind spending a few hundred bucks more for a much powerful sgs2 using other chips instead of tegra2....... just my 2 cents |
