Iphone 5 under whelmed the world lol -- the tech sites are saying apple is playing catch up!!

Apple pointed out that I5 is lighter than S3 - Reuters put in bracket - I5 is a 4" phone. S3 is a 4.8" phone. How funny is that.

its like all the tech sites agree that all the features announced in I5 are already pre existing in other phones. So the new with the most new feature = Nokia 920 lol..

hey stranger --- are you underwhelmed also? Still want to try out the camera?

YES. Matte surface tend to show oily stain on it. I'm talking through my experience of using a matte black N9, matte black One X and glossy white Lumia 900. At the very least, glossy surface allows me to just wipe the oils away without too much of a problem. Matte surface on the other hand tend to be a hit or miss. Heck, my N9 are having quite a bit of non wipeable oil stains. Truly heartbreaking.

Don't get me wrong, matte surface is probably the best one to hold and look. It just oozes premium. But practical wise, I'd go for glossy phones. Preferably those with striking color, as to mask the fingerprints.

Sadly enough, my glossy white Lumia 900 have a deep scratch at the back, although not that obvious unless I truly looking for it, but still...heartbreaking nonetheless.

Last last I bought the original Nokia silicon case for Lumia 900, cyan color. Looks much better IMHO.

should i wait or just get note 2? cant tahan already la

Most ppl prefer highly saturated photos over natural looking ones. =/

Was at a chatime outlet here last night, wanted to take a photo of the place but cam was on wrong settings (close up), and guess what, can get bokeh.
Since i do close up photography of my anime figures i might attempt to try and get this effect without using DSLRs.

I just noticed there is no saturation and sharpness settings in the camera, or do i have to install some lens/plugin? I already have 6 lenses installed, basic stuff that are free, but later i wanna buy CameraPro and HDR lens plugin.

Anyone encounter below issue;

During screen off, if there is incoming SMS/Whatsapp/FB notification, there should be have alert tone and the screen will turn on to show the notification preview on top of the screen.

I am having the issue that sometime there is just alert tone, but the screen won’t turn on by itself?

Wondering is that normal or is that anyone encounters this issue too?

I am sorry that may i know what do you mean by pick up the phone?

Actually i left my phone on table, sometime phone will light up when there is incoming notification, but sometime not...
But always have sound

i very annoy sometimes even the keypad is locked it will unlock itself and u can hear the pop pop  sound of the touchscreen being touched while in pocket

incoming text message screen will lid whenever you pick up your phone within 5sec which is cool, no need to press the power on button am i right??

guys, i plan to take L920 by these package, would it be wise to take which:
*48plan?
*68plan?
*88plan?

I'll be tied for 24 months on this instalment scheme..
the rate is quite.. 10 sen per sms rather expensive and would 48plan suffice enough for moderate whatsapp? I am currently using maxis prepaid plan at the moment and this is my first smartphone.

is it wise to pay using instalment compared to straight buyout?

I am quite upset about the battery life issue.
I have this phone for almost 2 weeks. After fully charged, I turned on wifi and just checked a few times facebook and then whatsapp like exchanging 12 messages. in 2 hours it dropped to 88%. this morning it dropped to 77% (with everything turned off, except the phone itself while i slept last night). Now i turned on 3G (not even really browsing anything), with music on (listen with earphones) it dropped from 77% to 61% in 1 hour.

When days with only 2G, and no games (with all background apps turned off. no location, no wifi, no nfc, etc). It lasted a bout 1 day and 18 hours.

Wahh!! Where did u buy your Lumia?
