Seriously bro. your post can smell sarcastic all over it.

But its ok, i learn to forgive and forget. move on. i cant control other people's behaviors and rudeness.

Why are newbies scared and just be a reader instead of joining in the discussion ?

You should know it well enough.

Cheers.

Seems to be that Ubuntu ARM got Mali-400 GPU drivers working.

yea … wow factor depends individual I guess….
A phone equipped with 8 cores and 2ghz processor speed  does not give me wow… it is just like enhance version of Note 2 LOL… what Im expecting samsung is to come out something that other phones don’t have LOL… something unique and useful like the function of the S-Pen for phablet, smart stay, smart rotation, palm swipe...  etc. Outlook wise, plastic or not, ugly or not.. not so important to me haha as long as the specs are WOW.. .and durable to use ok already

Well, we are at the limit of 32bit ARM. I suppose the best we can get is 3Gb RAM and a faster CPU, then FullHD display.

When 64bit ARM comes out, we should be able to leave our notebooks behind. Even then, with 3Gb RAM and 2GHz CPU, with Ubuntu or some linux, we can already replace our notebooks for some use caes.

So there isn't any really compelling reason for an upgrade since quad core and 2Gb is plenty fast performance. Well of course humanly we always want the latest shiny, so let's see if the spirit or the flesh is stronger hahahaha.

btw all, being TS, and being involved, is hard work. tongue.gif We will soon have a new version coming up, probably by tonight. I will need to sort some stuff out at work, and hopefully by tomorrow we will have the new version up and running.

Thank you for your support and contributions, keep the contributions coming.

Contributing has its rewards, like what tot31 has experienced. Let him tell you all about it after he comes back from the all-expenses paid reward.

Unfortunately, even with 2GHz and 3Gb of RAM, a computer still beats a smartphone completely..
Computer like mine, not top notch, just average, with 8GB of RAM and 3GHz still struggles with playing CRYSIS 3 at ultra settings.. With that said, for me in my opinion, I don't think in the near future smart phones will replace laptops, even more so desktops..
*
If you want to play Crysis, everything gets brought to its knees. The use case I meant was for stuff like mail checking, MS Office type stuff, and some light gaming of the mobile kind. I mean, you could probably play NFS 12 nicely with the next iteration of Note/Sn with the updated GPU in the next generation, but it should still be 32bit on the CPU side.

Crysis, IINM, is heavily GPU bound as well, and at this point you cannot compare PC-GPUs with mobile GPUs. Please try plugging 6pin PCIE power to your mobile for Crysis.

Editorial from AndroidPolice on the HTC One (M7)

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/02/19/ed...ild-a-year-ago/

The comments are reasonable and sound, saying that it's not compelling enough.

wanmya my phone is in an otterbox defender, lazy to disassemble the casing. Maybe others with naked phones or easily removable casings can help.

Even Anandtech is chiming in on M7
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6754/hands-o...one-formerly-m7

I'm aware this is N2 forum. Just an extract to understand what does "ultrapixel" mean. From the below, I don't think it really means anything, and it's just a 4MP camera with better low light level performance. But still, as described below, how do you now tell someone 4MP > 13MP ?

Abandoning the Megapixel Race and Shooting for Quality

I’ve buried it a bit, but one of the biggest headlining features of the HTC One is inclusion of a camera system that definitely goes against the prevailing industry smartphone imaging trend, in a very positive way. The trend has been smaller and smaller pixels on a smartphone CMOS for some time now, and as generations have marched on we’ve seen pixel sizes shrink from around 2 microns, to 1.65, to 1.4, to 1.1 which seems poised as the flavor of the year. More of smaller pixels lets an OEM sell a phone with more megapixels, but it’s fairly obvious that beyond 8 MP there’s not much sense in going way higher. In fact, even with the best possible diffraction limited optics operating under the constraints of a smartphone package, it’s impossible to resolve pixels that small. For so long megapixels has been the only figure of merit presented to consumers, and continually increasing that number, at the expense of other things arguably might not make sense. In a world increasingly dominated by photo sharing services which downscale images aggressively instagram (600 x 600) or pic.twitter (1024 x 2048 for the first party image sharing target) or Facebook, does 13 MP make sense?

HTC made camera a big emphasis with the previous One X, S, V, and other One series cameras with the first F/2.0 optical system which was shared across all devices. With the new HTC One has taken a huge risk and gone against the trend by keeping CMOS sensor size the same (1/3"), and moving to bigger 2.0 micron pixels, with the same F/2.0, 28mm (35 mm effective) optical system. The result is a camera that trades resolution we arguably can’t realize to begin with for dramatically better sensitivity in low light and better dynamic range.

Sony does seem to be the new darling for the dev community, since they released the kernel source. I just wonder if this includes the GPU drivers.

but they need to allow their warranty to be intact even if users root their devices in order to be our darling.  biggrin.gif  The Experia Z looks kinda refreshing with water-proof capability.  Might move from Samsung to try some other brand if i got the temptation to change phone later this year.  But definitely not HTC as it is still in my blacklist.  whistling.gif

Oh yeah, hmm.gif , Sony has a LARGE DISCLAIMER about warranty WHEN YOU REQUEST the bootloader unlock code. They state that there is NO WAY to revert to a pre-unlocked state so Sony CAN (WILL ?) reject your warranty claim.

So, given the so-called "evils" of Samsung and Sony, I'd take Samsung anyday due to their less restrictive practices. I am not banging the device, but the practice of the manufacturer that DOES NOT allow you to do as you like with your device. Again, there will be the practical consideration that 99.5% of the population doesn't care. Well I care.

yes, last time i was using Galaxy S.

thanks  thumbup.gif

Heheh, once you take something the size of the Note, you can't go back to anything smaller. It looks so puny.

Ok, 52 more posts to 2500. New home coming. I will announce.
