QUOTE(gin&tonic @ Jun 18 2013, 08:31 AM) All of us thought N2 & S3 will get 4.2.2 when S4 release. Looks like Samsung pull a fast one & may release only after N3 launch in Sept/Oct.  i shared earlier... i dun expect Note 2 to be getting that update so soon... coz otherwise, they won't have any good reason to sell Note 3. 4.2.2 should come with most of the things that S4 has got like dual camera recording, etc... they should all run fine on Note 2. and if note 3 dun have anything new and interesting to sell, they'd lose sales to Note 2. QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 18 2013, 08:41 AM) I'm wondering if sony releases the zu 6.44 in 2 weeks' time will samsung wait till oct? There is likely credible competition this year. The xz was released 1 mth befire s4 and htc1 at the same time as s4. Despite production issues htc1 is influencing buyers and so is the xz. I don't know what samsung thinks but I believe they shd be prepared with the note3. i think we can start to see price of smartphones going downwards...

ASP avg selling price going down is a good thing due to multiple suppliers unlike the processor market where intel is unchallenged. A note3 at rrp 2099 will be really sweet with 32gb and lte.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Jun 18 2013, 08:07 AM) Those of you who love the Note 2 will have no issues with the bigger 6 inch Note3. You will get use to it within a day. Having used the bigger 5.9 Vega, 6.1 Mate n 6.3 Mega I would say Note 2 size 5.5 seems small already Nowadays you see Sony, HTC n several China n Korean makers jumping into the 5.3 to 6.4 display sizes to capture a slice of this increasing market It is like what Steve Job had said, something along these lines " create something for the user who does not really know what they want" n having used it they just cannot accept anything else When Samsung released the 5.3 Note many expect it to fail. History had proven this wrong My first 5incher Dell Streak was a failure mainly due to its bad lag n mediocre performance.The Note easily dispose it off Note 2 is love at first sight for me. I wanted to like Note 1 so bad but I can't. The very look of it really turn me off. But with Note 2, ever since the announcement, I was counting the day for it to come to Malaysia. Now, 8 months later, still loving it. My previous phone was just 2". it feels so natural holding Note 2 as if I never had 2" phone before

QUOTE(Reventon @ Jun 18 2013, 12:20 AM) i really hope Note 3 will be under 6" , its really to large to handle if that big. I would most likely to skip and jump to another phone except it comes with even better battery life than current note 2. Yeah its suppose to be 5.99" so it just under 6" QUOTE(hooh888 @ Jun 18 2013, 09:45 AM) so now you're sentinel's promoter? haha. anyways i did use it for like an hour or 2 then removed it, drained my battery too damn fast and was lazy to learn and play around with settings as i was lazy during that time lol. and speaking of bkt, mr. joytest when's our bkt session?

The new updates from Samsung tend to drain battery juice faster.
