direct call, smart stay and smart alert are the best feature for me


hope samsung will continue implementing them on their next phones, not exclusively for s3

hope samsung will make wireless charging with all possible future models.....not only the s3

or to make it more accurate, make the wireless charging backplate available for more upcoming models

what if we just put only battery on top of it, would it charge the battery?  hmm.gif
*
that wouldn't work. because s3 itself doesn't support wireless charging, u need to buy a separate backplate for it

There are a few advantages of having wireless charging over cable:
1) charge without connecting the cable. Sometimes it's kinda difficult to get it in if you are not looking. Especially if you are using cases where it has protector rubber plugs that goes into the usb port on the phone.
2) You can reserve the cable for data transfer/adb related stuff when connected to your phone. Not sure if it would speed up the charging though.
3) usb connector at the bottom of the phone is quite inconvenient, at least for me. I have to use my phone rotated 180 deg. With wireless charging, I can have my phone laid flat in any orientation.
4) no more unplugging the cable if there is incoming call and your charging cable was not long enough. Just pick it up off the charging pad and answer. Put it back and it charges again. How convenient is that?
*
1) no comment about this. different people got different habits tongue.gif

2) we have wifi transfer for that

3) no comment about this as well. but for me i prefer the port to be at bottom instead of side like my HOX now, feels nicer to hold. and i dun get what you mean by rotate your phone 180 degrees?

4) er i not sure how this will happen. but for most people, if you wanna pick up your phone of course you are close to the phone to pick it up, and if you're able to pick it up, the cable should be long enough to reach your ears as well. unless you got superpower the phone can fly to your hand tongue.gif .

or u might be talking about the scenario where the phone is charging on the floor. this i can understand, because the cable lenght won't be long enough if you wanna stand and talk. but then, since you need to bend down to take the phone oso, y not just sit and talk tongue.gif

and this i'm not too sure about it, correct me if i'm wrong, constantly charging (stop and then charge again in short period) will shorten the batt life


unplugging cable and putting the phone back to dock.....both seems to be an equally "convenient" move for me

companies only look at normal users. not enthusiast like us

i think the winner will be the one that perfects the siri interface.  seriously. the next revolution after multitouch must be voice. that's how we have always been communicating before any of this. if iphone 5 just focus on one thing - to make siri perfect, i would be sold at hello.

honestly how many people out there use voice control? as in normal usage, like on the streets. IMO it looks pretty dumb for me. haven't spot any1 doing that yet

if lets say you're driving then its fine

True.  Maybe it's only during driving/cooking or when we have our hands full.  But during normal usage, our hands can be much faster than voice control laugh.gif

It's like what ppl say about wireless charging, seems to be useful, seems not.. Anyway manufacturers have to take the step regardless.  These will certainly be improved in the future. 
For wireless charging, wifi charging hotspots will be the future, but for voice control, I'm not sure how will it be in the future.  Some ideas people? sweat.gif
*
the future for voice control, much dumb and anti social people around us. imagine people talking to their phone only tongue.gif

anyway since voice control nowadays basicly communicates to a server to return result, it ain't really "intelligent" yet. need to wait till A.I is a reality

this is HTC's car mode

its dumb because tak biasa. like when u have your new s3 later, surely u feel malu tu showoff at first. but once u use to it its not so malu. same with voice. its dumb to be talking to your phone coz normally voice is only for humans. but once society accepts u talking to your phone, then peduli apa. voice is the next revolution. remember u heard it from me first.
*
but how long it take for society to accept this transition? 5 years? 10 years? AFAIK many people who buy smart phone nowadays din even fully utilize its usage

and i dun agree with u about the malu to show off part, i use my new phone on the streets and infront my friends like a boss whistling.gif

different case for voice control.....

ok, wrong example maybe. they don't utilize coz it still in its infancy (read: sucks). imagine if its reliable will u use it? in case u didn't notice, voice is fast. faster then the speed of touch. if u don't think it is, it is because at the moment voice is very cumbersome to use.

mentioned before, until its reliable like iron man's jarvis tongue.gif

ill go for 32gb maybe    hmm.gif

is it necessary to use memory card? since im not really store too much stuffs?
32gb on phone should be more than enough
*
32gb is more than enough for normal users


those who need more storage are going to fully utilize the phone multimedia capability. like putting in tons of movies, tv shows etc

been reading through and watching videos of previews and reviews

smart alert, smart stay and direct call are features i liked the most. have to admit no other phone offer this kind of functionality (in stock form)

the blue colour kind of attract me as well, have a very special tone to it. but i still kinda not satisfied with the back design, maybe a casing will solve it


and price of HOX dropping very fast, if i dun sell it now, i'm in for more loss
