QUOTE(Noobi3 @ Mar 17 2013, 02:50 PM) Not to sound like some fanboy but Samsung did get it right this time on Note2 in terms of matching the software n the hardware nicely . The battery life is excellent . Some might say cuz of the battery size . Not entirely true . My wife is using note2 and sgs3 LTE as her secondary phone . She always complaint her sgs3 can barely last her 12 hours of usage . So recently she bought the sgs3 extended battery by Samsung , 3000mah . Even so , by end of the day , battery left are almost equal for both phones , sgs3 being slightly more BUT note2 being her primary has SOT of triple or more of SGS3 with everything like fb , twitter , instagram , gmail synced while sgs3 only has gmail n whatsapp . Both phones r on the same telco , stock but rooted . Correct. Note 2 battery is excellent and the phone operating temperature is generally lower than others by 3-5 degree C. You don't feel the warmness unlike the other phones. My present phones - Butterfly, Xperia Z and Nexus 4 battery life is at best on average half that of the Note 2 even though the Note 2 battery size is 35-45% higher capacity |

QUOTE(lololzai @ Mar 17 2013, 03:05 PM) OMG! The card so easy to be dead? Only 64Gb for Sandisk? How about Sandisk's 32Gb and lower? If that's only happening to 64Gb then I'll go for the 32Gb or maybe Kingston's 64Gb. Based on my experience replacing the card 3 times , just follow these tips and you should be fine 1. If you wish to copy stuffs over to the card, do it in batches of say up to maximum 5gb per copy. Don't take shortcut and try to copy over at one go stuffs above 5 gb. Do your copying over few times 2. Do not remove stuffs while in recovery mode - eg attempting to delete your backups I have used Kingston too but sadly its write/read speeds is considerably slower up to 50% vs SanDisk last tested on its 32 GB cards Advantage of Sandisk - replacing cards is unlimited under warranty period; the staff told me I can replace it as many times as I wish |

QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Mar 24 2013, 04:34 PM) o.O, I rather buy the simcard and reload to buy the mobile internet instead roaming when traveling  For 1-2 days is ok. When I plan to stay for a week or more I will get local PP card |

That app not recommended Best is use WiFi file explorer or airdroid |

QUOTE(joytest @ Mar 26 2013, 03:49 PM) Wow, so you can actually boast of 5hr SOT coz you're staring at your phone in the office  Doesn't your boss  check on you ?  Actually sometimes I do wonder ( with exception of students ), how some of you working guys has the time to continually do postings here. Either you are too free on your job ( I'd say a positive bad sign) or you are misusing your time meant to do your job. When I was working, I only had the time to browse and post at night only and that is not even a daily routine |

QUOTE(SyathibiyMegat @ Mar 26 2013, 06:08 PM) Though it's recommended by Samsung itself? Between WiFi File Explorer and AirDroid, which one is the best? Thanks! My recommendations is WiFi file explorer as it transfer faster than airdroid Worth every sen I paid for it Samsung recommendations is not always the best. Test yourself to assess how BAD is android transfer This post has been edited by benny888: Mar 26 2013, 06:29 PM |
