Guys hows the color saturation on Persues Kernel 33.4. Read in Perseus thread that someone said it can be quite close to IPon retina screen. True or not?

its mind blasting

removes the hyper saturation of blues and greeeeeeens on the amoleds and give it a calibrated truely naturally amazing super nice "i can't live without perseus" color

might seems washed out at first, but its amazing in the end.

Just read the s4 thread.....so it's just faster n bigger than s3 with sw tweaks. I don't expect more than that so I'm not disappointed but for all those who expect thenextsupersexydesign were. laugh.gif

Note 2 ftw over everything else. All we need is an upgrade to 1080p and another half inch to pwn the next 3 generations of phones. brows.gif

Like i kept saying, wtf do u expect for a technology product? Faster,bigger,maybe better.....design doesn't really matter except when it gets too weird ass like that sharkfin shaped Ericsson or the lipstick shaped Nokia that it impacts its usability. Crapple is the one largely responsible for making the masses expect tech to look sexy.

Design nice or not is very subjective lor... Apple and Samsung is simple and "elegance".... I bet note 3 will have the same design lolx... Since S4 share the same look as note 2 but hope note 3 got no home and capacitive screen button... u know.. sometime when using s-pen want to tap "back" or "menu" button,... have to use finger

QUOTE(alexng2208 @ Mar 15 2013, 09:00 AM)
i wonder why is everyone complaining that GS4 and GS3 looks similar

when apple released 3G and 3GS, 4 and 4S it is even more similar, heck even down to the mm. that is even worse and lazy engineering. they just upped the proc and sometimes not even the memory, what crazy stuff is that

S4 let's you pause your movie without you knowing it. S4 has NFC and wireless charging for god's sake. S4 has a 441 ppi screen and the first non-nexus phone shipping with 4.2.2 (heck, even some nexus 4 phones is shipping wiht 4.2.1!)

blogs are saying that they are adding a bunch of useless features. well, siri is useless, so is facetime, so is 95% of the apps on both app stores! S4 has a pedometer built in for god's sake, that's like ipod nano in the iphone, which apple will call the invention fit for god himself/herself. what a load of crap.

samsung, from a 19% market share 2011, topped 30+% 2012 thanks to the success of the wildly successful S3. now they upped every single crap on that phone! its thinner, lighter, better FULL FREAKING HD screen (that's more than my TV), LTE, octa core, if this were an apple, those dumb apple-esq blogs (gizmodo / engadget) will be dripping saliva out of their nostrils and then line up since last month to buy the phone available next month.

this is absurd. S4 is revolutionary and rightly so. in what sense does any freaking iphone beat this? heck, htc one might be "way faster" as noted by engadget's blog but htc usually launches 1 phone then leave it to die without upgrades / accessories / terrible marketing / aluminium dents when u drop-em. in s4, if you crack the rear case, u go lyn and buy one for RM80

ok rant over. whoever says otherwise will never get to see a picture of my hot boss

additional rant which will make those apple fans say its useless but secretly want them. like how girls say they hate me but secretly want me so badly (during my uni years, not now) :

S Translator: translates nine different languages in real-time – both text to speech andspeech to text.
S Voice Drive: Control your phone with your voice while in the car – it can even read SMS messages and the like back to you.
S Travel
S Health: With accompanying accessories – S Band, Body Scale, and Heart Rate Monitor – the GS4 will help you get healthy. Given that you actually use the stuff, of course.
Air Call accept: simply wave your hand over the screen to answer a call. Neato.
Group Play: not as dirty as it sounds, this lets users share music, photos, documents, and games with devices around without the need for Wi-Fi or even a cellular AP. It's magic.
Share Music: Plays the same song on multiple devices in real-time.

Last time Sammy fanboy laugh ifans.. .ip5 is just the same old design.. .just extend longer haha... now they can "laugh back" already la... design is really subjective la... many of em like nicer design but lousy specs haha... just tell them lor like a hot and sexy lady (out) but her heart very cruel, brutal, and garang (specs).. u want ar? hahaha

If notice closely, the s4 screen corner is slightly curve not a sharp corner like on s3 or note 2...somemore they bring back the infrared port ... and most of those features pack in S4 is just a software tweak in 4.2.2... dunno when they release for Note 2... and what is S-School?

QUOTE(antt00 @ Mar 15 2013, 09:06 AM)
The thing is, people are disappointed with S4. BUT no one is comparing with iphone, i mean who cares about them. tongue.gif

But seriously S4 itself is disappointing in terms of new things compared to previous phone releases from Samsung. S2 was superb. Note series was a different class of its own. S3 was not so good (didn't even make me look twice). S4 is just another letdown.

Can i still see a pic of your hot boss?  brows.gif

Disappointing? then should blame Samsung... It was Samsung itself done lot of works to get the hype so we of course expect something surprise from S4... who knows it turns out like that... mini note 2 with better specs doh.gif

4.2.2 got live S translate, smart pause, smart scroll

Remember to use the SHORT CABLE that comes with this powerbank. The short cable gives you consistent 1800 GCC reading (see post 3) while the long cable is only about 1000-1200.

that's true

i got so many cables (ori cables, oem cables, short, long, etc..), can test many many combo

powerbank need short + good quality cables only can achieve full speed potential

Yoobao original provide that cable

i also just got a sample from my supplier for oem powerbank cables + connector. 1800ma achieved biggrin.gif

my point exactly. those people who love and live by apple will never understand innovation outside their small circle. live translation of voice, apple doesn't even come close to understanding BM on siri (try saying: aku nak gi shopping kat klcc, camne ye?, i believe siri will reply: gtfo LOL). siri = gimmick. facetime = gimmick. but a very good overhyped gimmick

gaming = easy. devs build for 1 device running 1 hardware on 1 OS. hence the optimization. try true multitasking, like watching youtube then writting a memo transcript of said video on the other half of your screen. ios can't even handle that.

the reason they can be copied = open source and samsung not sue-crazy like our apple counterparts (tim cook is stopping all this lawsuits as he mentioned, is killing the industry)

lastly, i can talk whatever but do not need to prove whatever. i'm a keyboard warrior at its finest LOL joytest might attest to that LOL

Exactly. I never said iOS is perfect but they set a standard in the market. Notice you are picking minor flaws.

Many years ago remember when we talk about camera it was Sony Ericsson then later was Nokia , then motorola comes out with stylish design, LG all I remember is fridge, Samsung I remember is their speaker sound and ringtones.

But today android nothing much to wow anymore most features are same.
What you are trying to twist are call add on. The basic features must be in place then twist. Not twist all over neglect the basic features.

Like u said apps that suppose to be google and manufacturer optimized. These things not you to protect them until they do it.

Basic features are like
Interface
Copy/paste feature
Keyboard text prediction/ correction
Notifications ( too many notifications android lag)
Email (try forward mail on android it copy paste who is the previous sender info paste on new mail) I know u sure twist can send any file but those are optional or additional.
Camera (optimized auto)
Touchscreen sensitivity.

If samsung is so innovative they can work with the right people to create an improved version of android for Samsung setting their standard in the market.

Anyway this just my opinion no offense to anyone

No no, 4.2.2, smart scroll and smart pause are very good point. But its not something that attract me to buy a new phone knowing my current phone will probably have it as well.

Yup like i said on S2 thread. S4 is a good upgrade choice for current S2 users. But N2 users there is not much difference. Might as well hold on till N3 or S5.

I don't think we'll get any real surprise for note 3 since they innovated on the stylus already. We shd expect it like Intel's tick-tock iterative improvements until something revolutionary happens,probably foldable screen.

Fhd screen,faster cpu and larger battery,perhaps up to 6.3". Next revolution is 64bit ARM with higher addressable memory for 4gb/8gb ram. Then u can kiss yr notebook goodbye for most uses. See post 4 3rd para or something I have a link to an article about your phone being a computer.
