Default Otterbox is BIGGER than the Zerolemon casing  |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jun 6 2013, 01:22 AM) Again it doesn't ship outside US or UK.  No need to think of charging phone every 1 1/2 days. This is great.  Eh I thought a few days back Amazon had some sale that ships worldwide? |

I have a suspicion that the Note 3 will come earlier this year, because there is some real competition on the horizon now. Start saving |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jun 6 2013, 01:34 AM) I think I have enough for the Note III but just feel sad to see I will lose out so much if I try to sell my Note II later. Bought at RM 2250, I think I will lose at least RM 1k. Give your niece?  |

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Jun 6 2013, 10:11 AM) i recall the stock weather widget can also display a little icon on my contact's birthday. but somehow, it's no longer there... anyone knows if this function is still there...? sometimes, this is the pain with Android and Samsung. like Reader Hub thingy i shared yesterday... suddenly a function can be removed... for Reader Hub, I can't seem to add my own ePub books anymore... *sigh* It's not just Samsung. This is typically the problem called vendor lock in. Once I was a junkie for a particular platform. Then one day I thought let me try and use a different program to read my file.....omg I couldn't despite converting... So since that day I look for portability as the main criterion for my stuff. That is why I use handynote instead of s-note and other non-vendor specific apps for the stuff I need to do. |

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Jun 6 2013, 10:55 AM) ya, that's why i worry about those extra functions that comes with Note 2... the notes... if export to image, becomes useless... then there's the add notes to photos... front and back... i wonder if its a new standard for images (as in just add into metafile data) or proprietary... ya, i guess i need to sort out what i should be using... handynote... hmmm... previously, i was using NoteEverything... very comprehensive. eBook reader. wow... moon reader has changed a lot since the last time i used it. but too bad it's kinda expensive if i wanna go pro. i dun mind paying usd1, if they have such sale... hahaha... For an app that you can re-use across all your phones, it's worth that pack of ciggies or 2-person portion of Hokkien Mee QUOTE(EdwinCodec @ Jun 6 2013, 11:09 AM) It's kinda good thou. At least it's better than Samsung's stock keyboard. I prefer the Samsung keyboard since it has the extra number row. I don't know why the stock Android keyboard does not provide that option.

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Jun 6 2013, 11:13 AM) Quite troublesome if the row of number does not exist on some keyboards, enables faster typing Yeah man. Even Swype doesn't have it. That's why initially I used Hacker's keyboard, which emulates a full kbd with Ctrl and esc and cursor keys, but not all apps recognise those key presses. And in portrait mode the keys are too cramped. Using only in landscape mode. Now after some ROM mucking about, using Samsung stock for a while. |

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Jun 6 2013, 11:19 AM) Was using Swype initially(Beta and Full) , until I realized that the 'gesture/slide' function is also available in the stock keyboard, back to stock it is  I released that I can type faster on stock too lolol. The layout of Swiftkey and Swype is too odd for my liking. One of the neat things about the samsung stock kbd is that if u dont use theswype ffunction u can set the swype action to emulate moving the cursor. Sadly it doesn't seem to work across all apps. |

Switch to desktop mode? No bar nothing. Just smaller fonts which you can zoom.

QUOTE(ZoidbergFry @ Jun 6 2013, 04:48 PM) Thats great to know  ,i tought im done for this time..any knowledge on how much the prices are? and i tought that every S pen only works for one specific note2 ? I don't recall exactly, could be RM99 or RM129. You can buy even the S-pen from Note 1 or Note 8.0 or 10.1 and it will still work since it's the same technology. |

QUOTE(solsekuin44 @ Jun 6 2013, 06:29 PM) Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 is not the Note 3 right? It's a mid range phone probably usedto gauge market acceptance for the size.... maybe suitable for people who want large text or a media player type device with phone functions. |

QUOTE(kurtkantoi @ Jun 6 2013, 08:15 PM) Ok. Silly me. The bumper aluminium is the culprit. This is the second case / protector that failed my Spen.  It's working after removal???? What was the problem with the first case? This is strange...aluminium is not magnetic (normally) .... |

QUOTE(((Xa))0102 @ Jun 6 2013, 09:16 PM) Oh, the i9205 is 16GB, i've tried it at Singtel this evening. And yes, it had 12GB+ internal memory space as compared to Note 2's 10GB+ So for SGD 700 vs SGD 1k (at launch) for Note 2, would you say it's worthwhile? |
