Nothing to be proud if getting even A+. The standards of marking has gone down so low that it is ridiculous. During my time in the 80 there were only less than a hundred top scorers. Nowadays is in five figures My wife has given up marking papers as she is literally force to give marks even for wrong answers. In our time you will get zero. Nowadays as long as you shown some terms n indicate some level of knowledge you can get partial marks Nowadays 70 marks n above you get A unlike 90 during my time So i always advise my friends that their child is compulsory to get full straight A to deem acceptable Do you know passing marks also reduce to mere 20 only for some subjects unlike 50 in the 80's My wife always tell her students as long as they can score a C4 in school there will get A. That is how bad our standards are these days
Yes I am aware about that. But I dont think 30k students are scoring straight As even at PMR. As far as I know only about 1000 students are scoring straight A's in SPM. But I have to agree with you the education level has deteriorated to such a low level..

I tried so many hd wallpaper apps and I personally think that Full hd wallpaper from android market is the best. It offers very clear,crisp and vivid wallpapers..

I have ask that before and no one knows as there is no known answer on what is the lifespan of the proximity sensor. For sure it will be shorten but whether it will be significant i don't know.

Looks disappointing. Only way s4 might amaze me is if keyboard accuracy like iphone, retina display, aluminum or titanium body, battery life similar to note 2 or better, resistive buttons like back and options, fm transmitter, camera performance at least a nokia n8 quality and spen technology without spen
If not I wont even consider it
Agree, I guess it's not really beneficial to change to s4, since all the games on the note 2 are fairly smooth without lagging, well there are some games which lag, but majority are acceptable.. There is no other complains on the note 2 i guess, except for that screen rotation bug.. For me the only way the s4 will impress me is that it is cheaper than the note 2, so in that case I can sell my note 2 and buy the s4 without topping up any money..

For those people who say that iphone 5 no lag. So here is my experience.. Since I can't afford an iphone 5, so I tested out in the shop.. I open an app, no problem smooth, the second app.. Still no problem, third app, still smooth, but the fourth app, bam it lags alot. What does it shows, there is no phone in the market that never lags.. Yes, maybe to open one app there is no lag, but I don't believe that iphone 5 can handle multi tasking like note 2 can.. For sure, most games are optimized for iphone users, because iphone 5 has no other variants, unlike on the android market, there are so many android phones, hence, the game companies can't be wasting resources to optimize all the android smartphones.. The key is optimization, and yes in my previous posts, I also stated that even with 20 cores is also redundant, and useless unless the app developers optimize it for the respective android smartphones..

Thank you. Sensible post. Do however note that whenever we speak of anything beyond ARM quad, eg x64-type multi cores, it is meaningless for the foreseeable future since no one has been able to bring down power consumption to fit into anything smaller than an ultrabook. It is a CISC vs RISC thing and not comparable. However, iirc, ps3 has/had ? 32 cores or was it more, but using extremely simple compute units called "Cells" but i don't see anymore commercial applications of this technology anymore.
So let's all be accurate when discussing technology.
Thanks for all your posts, I am learning so many english words everyday.. I hope by the end of this year, everybody would definitely be equipped with a myriad of bombastic words..

I regretted downloading games from the wapshop from gameloft.. I paid the same amount as in the google app store, but the wapshop never update the games which I bought..

Does the apps on the Samsung Apps store get updated at the same time as the same app in the Google Play Store? Or does it even gets updated? If yes, that don't mind purchasing apps off the app store.. Thanks..

This is the ZeroLemon Extended battery 9300mah, which is 3 times the original capacity of the note 2. But the nice thing about this battery is that it is relatively cheap, only US39.99. And is not that thick either..

anyone facing problem on difficulties to connect to internet after updating the latest firmware?
If you have difficulty of connecting to the internet, try dialing *#0011#. Hit the right hand side menu button, and then hit on WIFI. If it is turned on, please hit once on the power save mode, to turn it off, since we do not want the connection of go into deep sleep.. So turn it off.. Hope that helps.

Acutally even 6 inches is not really an issue.. As you know they say, the bigger the better.. For me size is not an issue, it is the screen clarity and performance, because that is what matters most, as people always look at your screen first, its the first impression that matters.. And as the saying goes, " There is no second chance for first impression"
