QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 16 2013, 09:43 PM) IMHO, this falls under wear and tear. My personal recommendation to you and everybody else is, please go and get a PROPER casing that covers the ENTIRE bezel. i would sacrifice some wear and tear showing for the sake of slimness and beauty... FYI "the chrome part" is called the bezel. Even that stalwart of slim nakedness, alexng2208 has admitted to a chip on the top bezel due to a fall, which was not enclosed by his semi naked top and bottom bezel back cover. instead of torturing myself with carrying a rubber brick LOL  |

Hello. Traded in my previous second hand water damaged, warranty voided note 2 for a new one.
Quick question. The retailer have yet to register the e warranty. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Will I be able to prolong the warranty period? Confused.  Edit: I can't seem to find any other suitable phone after using the Note 2. I guess it's true of what they say, "once u go big, u'll never go back"....

All the chat history are well backup. So if any media or file its better backup separately via es file explorer.btw...I do see my whatsapp messages on some contact dating to 2011. |

Last post before zzzz
QUOTE I have come back to Note 2 from S4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2325983 I got my S4 on day of release, and have just, yesterday, swapped it back for a Note 2 (plus cash). I had a Note 2 before the S4 and I liked the size of the screen etc. I was impressed with the S4, but after a while I noticed a few things that actually annoyed me intensely with it. Battery life is awful. It would last only around 5 hours, and that was not doing a lot, and would drop from 100% to around <10% in such a short time. The heat issues the S4 have are incredible, especially when charging. I actually wondered if one day the thing would burst in to flames. It would be uncomfortable to hold at times, especially on a warm day. It seemed to exacerbate the problem. Another thing, the screen in direct sunlight. Even though it would be set at the highest brightness, it still would not be bright enough, and because it would get warm, it would dim the display more to "save it" I guess that's AMOLED for ya. The Note 2 I have now, I got it at around 12 pm yesterday, and after setting it all up how I like it, programs, themes etc, after around 5 hours unplugged, it had only used around 16%. That was after messing with it a lot. Had that been the S4 it would be way down almost out of action and I'd have to charge it again. So, I'm sad to say, I only had the S4 for 23 days..... The S4 looks and feels nice in the hand, has some nice features, but I have to say, the Note 2 does it for me due to battery life. |
