For me i definitely will go for iPhone lor. Samsung come out phone too fast. Now is S3 then after awhile S4 or Note 2 come out ur S3 price will drop like scrap metal price and look at their OS support. iOS 6 still support 3Gs although there is some restriction of cos.
Wah this thread still alive. Damm long breath you all (including me..)
Btw gnote 2 is announcing lor, so if bought S3 then few mth down the road S4 come out lor. Looks like someone's note price gone for early Merdeka sales liao..
But I heard lots of ppl complaining on twitter on the stylus cos it easily drop it. A lot say I want to buy a brand new note but all I need is the pen... I wonder does it come with extra stylus...

lama lagi mar next year. i wonder if there are any success stories on using galaxy note 2 as a note taking device. i tried it on the ipad but its not good. u tend to rest your wrist on the ipad when writing and although the software "suppose" to differentiate your wrist and the pen, it doesn't do a good job. also when u write u can't write like normal paper, u tend to make your writing bigger then normal. i think note taking is total fail on the ipad. and i heard total fail on the note 1 too. but not yet tried it on the note 2 though. maybe got breakthrough? no? yes?
Try this out. I used it previously for note taking. This apps is fantastic. It has dictation if not mistaken. But too bad I'm using Evernote now cos it sync with my iPhone, iPad and MacBook.

First of all I want everybody to understand iphones after 3g which mean 3gs 4 and 4s and most probably 5 , are not real multitasking infact they're not multitasking , when you minimize an apps or whatever stuff ( by pressing home button) it actually minimize the apps and pause it , which mean its not running in backgroud , it just lets you launch faster the next time when you wan to use it . For example 3gs to turn on the wifi we have to go to settings right , we turn on wifi then instantly hit the home button without letting it search for network , will ur wifi be enabled ? NO , its because before it successfully searched for its wifi network then u hit the home button , therefore it went into pause mode , then its no longer running already , just paused there.
Care to explain why out of sudden talk about multitasking leh?Anyway I think by doing so it can save lots of resources from our phone. That's why the phone so smooth even running on single core or lower.

Yeah, anyway what video converter you guys use to convert video format and put into iTunes so that it can sync to iPhone? Still haven't learnt to sync videoÂ
Download a video player app call 0player. Once downloaded go to APP tab from iTunes scroll to the bottom the tap on the 0player icon. Drag and drop any video file to the white box on the right. That's it no need convert. 0player can play lots of movie file including RMVB, AVI, WMV, FLV and etc... Not only 0player lots of video apps also use this method it just that I prefer this app only.

i would like to change to a note from 4s but i will still feel the laggy when i play through my friend's note.. guess i'll just go for the new gen of iphone
Note still lag? Kinda surprise me. Im playing with S3 looks quite smooth... Maybe it's still new havent install any apps yet...
price drop happen to both platform, RRP will remain, but shop selling price is different.
to be fair, android has many manufacturer while ios have only one, so imo its normal the price drop is slower. If ios has many many manufacturer they will be the same.
edit: typo
No matter where u buy iPhone price won't be lower la. unless its more expensive. Outright phone can never cheaper than apple store or telco while apple Store and telco price is control by apple. Unless you are talking about telco package. iPhone price will never drop unless new phone launch...
for me, i already decided. gonna stick with my ip4s, coz design ip5 is ugly +_+ for those who want to see the leaked official video, check on youtube title as "iphone 5 booting up" its not rumors already. the phone is booting up with apple logo. how frustrating when i see iphone 5 speaker is same as Nokia N97 +_+
Seriously I never ever believe in those so call leak photo or video. Those ppl so damm free to create video just to cheat ppl don't know why. I think those who are involve in producing the ip5 has signa agreement with apple for not leaking any photo or image of the new phone. It's very strict in there too. I read somewhere last time abt this. Anyway that phone assemble all the leak parts as in the Internet haha. Even last time when ip4 launch all also say wtf so ugly even my 3GS is nicer but see now all also buying ip4 and accept dy... Haha!
you remind me, if I'm not mistaken last time they have this kinda gathering at uptown. How come now no more already. Last time I just newly bought iPhone then saw this gathering thread.
Haha, lets wait and see. I still remember when iPhone 4S was announced many people claim that it not worth the minor upgrade and many people scolding iPhone 4S but at the end the iPhone 4S sales still beat the record
Ya true. Every version also being criticize but end up selling like hot cakes and achieveming new record... I'm upgrading from 4-5 so worth the money i guess...
Everyone is expecting Apple to come out with revolutionary products every time. That is not gonna happen! Apple has revolutionalise the music industry with iPod and iTunes. It did it again with the iphone by changing the phone landscape. It did with the iPad.
You cannot expect Apple to create a "Jesus" phone every year. We might not even see another phone revolution in another 10 years or even our lifetime. What we all will see from now on is incremental update. Btw, have you ask yourself what kind revolution Samsung, Htc, Nokia or Motorola bring so far?
Haha nice said. Whatever apple come out sure got ppl condem but look its sold out again. Who cares how the design looks like, it's the software, smooth UI and apps availability that we care. now they have higher spec so the screen smoothness I bet nobody else can beat anymore.
