QUOTE(-kytz- @ Nov 15 2011, 10:50 PM) Told by who? actually this is 100% true..if u think carefully...it can be done..but no one said whether it is official or custom ROM right? Honestly though, I doubt it. Samsung is infamous for slow updates..and most likely they'll support their flagship models saja.   |

QUOTE(eXau5t @ Nov 16 2011, 10:41 PM) planning to get this phone this weekend. however my only concern is the touch screen is not gorilla glass. I always keep my phone in my pocket (with no other stuff) however the pressure in the pocket might be too extreme for normal touch screen phone to handle? look at our wallets, even bank cards cant stand our daily pressure lol. I'm just afraid that my screen might crack or something since its only a normal s-lcd glass bro you got gorilla glass doesnt mean its unbreakable..gorilla glass just makes it scratch resistant. its not scratch proof either. maybe if you put it inside a case at least it should withstand stronger pressure but will still break if u drop it...(depends on height and surface u drop it onto)This post has been edited by CyberKewl: Nov 16 2011, 10:45 PM |

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Nov 21 2011, 08:58 AM) So... this phone is left with 1GB of internal memory to download apps? How many apps roughly can it download? the only advantage of installing to internal vs sd card is that your apps load up faster during bootup and also theoretically should be faster than loading from microsd although the speed difference is not noticeable.I hear my friend saying that it's better to install apps in the internal memory instead of SD card for full functionality? |

QUOTE(IwanAGP @ Nov 21 2011, 08:16 PM) Same chipset but that 0.4GHz will matter a lot. 1GHz vs 1.4GHz is 40% increase. Don't play play the thing is if the game requires a more powerful GPU (for example shadowgun) that 40% increase probably won't mean a thing because you need a better GPU for that  |

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Nov 21 2011, 11:48 PM) shadow gun can run on sgw, can it run on HTC desire? :> Run is can run of course but not that smooth la compared to other higher end phones or even Tegra 2 tablet the EEE Pad Transformer. It still lags a bit in the Galaxy W but appears playable. |

QUOTE(gastacopz @ Nov 23 2011, 12:17 PM) i choose auto..the problem is...when i try G5..the speed is fast... try fix to WCDMA only rather than auto as auto tends to switch between the two. WCDMA will try to force it to 3G if possible. |

i keep seeing pple say why not add RM x to buy SGR or SGS+? then u will see this happen:
Person A: Why you buy SGW for RM 900 when you can add RM200 / 300 more to get SGR AP Assuming you bought SGR for RM 1100, then you get the same guy telling you this instead: Person A: Why you buy SGR for RM 1100, you could buy XXX by adding XXX then it goes on and on...hahaha |

QUOTE(IwanAGP @ Nov 23 2011, 07:48 PM) But you get Double Core, bigger screen, super amoled+(although someone said it doesn't look natural, who cares that's why..dual core = 2x price..haha...anyway that's why there's phones from all price ranges so u can choose according to budget..some actually prefer a smaller 3.7 inch screen cos easier to hold..SGS II might be too big for some...that's why iPon still using 3.5" - easier to reach and use with one hand. ), super slim, MONYET Glass (somemore ppl drop tested can survive waist height with no crack, faced down), 1080p video recording, this this that that. You got the last point there, Double the Money |

QUOTE(ekudz @ Nov 23 2011, 10:54 PM) correct but .. due to 1.7gb only internal memory .. cant install a lot of high end games .. your original statement stated cant play many games..not really accurate..if u meant CANNOT INSTALL MANY games then still incorrect unless you give specifics..now that you mention high end games, yes, but that's the way it is - its a budget phone..if want to install a lot of high end games get galaxy S II lor..price to pay..//just install blood and glory - 250MB .. |
