My phone is discharging fast. Like extremely fast. Like 5hrd to zero kinda fast without running any apps. Thoughts? I'm using cow bionic btw.

Great Review! But I have a small question, is both of your phone rooted?

Nice review

Any other known issues i should know about this phone ?

I'm considering to get either this or Galaxy S Plus

anyone encountered "Not registered to network" error message? just bought a galaxy w yesterday, got the same message when testing at shop, shop girl said its due to old sim card; so she cleaned the sim and restart and everything's ok. today same message pop up again, so we tried switching to another sim card, same "not registered to network" message. thanks!

how to move data from internal memory to external memory?must root the phone or what? sorry for asking..

root and flash cow's ROM to swap internal mem with external mem.

hhehe nobody reply to this.. but i did some digging and found something useful!

this is the list of what is safe and what is not to remove from your phone after rooting!!

enjoy!

is it the only option?how about stock phone like mine?

U can always try root and installing apps2sd app, tho i never tested it so i could not comment more than that..

so difficult ya...am do not want to void my warranty...so sad..

If u have the money why not going for the S Plus?
Bigger internal mem 8/16gb, AMOLED + Corning Glass somemore.. Other spec the same as W

go for S plus for sure! If you got $

DiGi? I only get that msg when i'm in my campus. No coverage

Since the other specs not so different i thought i might as well just get the Galaxy W, can save money

is the AMOLED really worth the extra buck ? can really notice different between Galaxy W and S Plus screen ?

and i just found out about Galaxy R, that one got dual core right ? i'm considering that one too now

How about S plus and Galaxy R ? which one is better ?
Price is almost the same right ?

But Galaxy R only got AP set

Well i tested my friend SGII, its screen does have better black, but then again W screen is no slouch either, way better than ACE & Y screen for sure..

If its me and i have the money i dont mind forgoing the AMOLED screen for a dual core cpu HP like R, my friend in SG is using it and he has no complaints
The thing that isnt that good is that in Msia its only AP right? hmmmm

Why do you compare single core to dual core. 512MB RAM to 1GB RAM. If you're ok with AP set, and got the budget, of course choose R la. But mind you. R is just 4.2" SLCD, not AMOLED

You know why they have better blacks? AMOLED/SUPER AMOLED/SUPER AMOLED HD/Anything that got 'AMOLED' shuts down the pixel when it's required to display black while LCD backlight will still be on all the time even if it's not displaying any colour.

I see, so W screen isnt that bad either

Yeah and more apps now performs better on dual cores right ?
I'm afraid if i get the W or S plus it wont be able to run newer apps and games properly, since it's only single core

yeah only AP, i wish samsung could release it oficially here

BTW are you using Galaxy W ? have any complaints about it ?
can demanding games like Dead Space and Gta run smoothly ?

haha sorry about that yeah R definitely better

if only there's an official non AP version

anyone here had experience with AP Samsung ?

nice info about AMOLED BTW, never knew that
