QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 9 2013, 02:55 PM) If it is true that the "release" date is 25 Sep, we *should* be able to get it that day. If it is "launch" date then we will have a *release* date later just dunno whether the Telcos will have exclusive like the Note II. But some did manage to grab one without contract, me included, days before the official launch.  I got the Note 1 on day 2, and the Note 2 a day earlier   |

QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 9 2013, 02:56 PM) Nova launcher lorrrr..... I'm using 8 rows x 7 columns   8R x 7C ..... too much for me i think.  Still prefer the stock launcher. I think i have been "brainwashed" by TW now. Dun like the TW interface when first changing from HTC Sense but now find it good to use already.  |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 9 2013, 11:57 PM) That was last time, now I don't know ah. That was when 9 years ago when I was 18 and just masuk tertiary studies. I think my younger bro was studying there around that time, never heard him talking about that. I confirm with him later when i meet him. Let me re-emphasize I came from MMU and what I posted here based on hearsay.  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(owentan328 @ Sep 10 2013, 01:39 PM) yeah i know... yes, exactly, i dun buy my device based on hardware alone but its features. What the device can do, not what the device is made of. Smoothness of UI is nothing if the device cannot help us much in daily life coz i dun just flip here flip there just to enjoy the smooth UI.i personally think if everyone is going for the pure android look and feel, then whats the point of developing touchwiz and sense UI? we are comparing the smoothness of stock UI which utilize the hardware. not comparing just hardware. I want the convenience to write something down immediately during a call (or whenever) when there is no pen and paper around me. I want the flexibility of multi-windows when i can do multiple tasks at the same time. I want the screen to be bigger so that my aging eyes can see clearer. I want to be able to install different custom ROM (with different themes and features) whenever i am bored with the existing one. Yes, i do want the smoothness of UI but it is not my priority, as long as it is as smooth as my current Note II. Not to be brunt but the only nitpicking iPhone can do now is the "smoothness" of UI (if you insist) and the more content in their App Store/iTunes. oh.. and also the many accessories available for Apple devices. Sorry, not a droidfrag, just stating the fact. I just bought a MBA 2013 last month - enjoying the "smoothness UI" of MBA now.  |

QUOTE(WiLyi @ Sep 10 2013, 02:31 PM) I really don't understand, Note 3 is not even released nor available, yet there are so many bashing, if not because of the faux leather then about the UI. haha.... can't agree more. why bother come here bashing here and there - we are "brainwashed" by Samsung anyway, can only see the Note III is so PERFECT!!! Some people will buy a device for the hardware sake of future proof, some will buy it for the features and performance, and some will strike a balance in between. If there is a particular device that doesn't suits you then just stay away from it. I don't like i-devices therefore I have never bother to keep track on the news or lurk around the threads for the i-devices, because I don't even care about it. If someone come and bash this and that I can only come out with 2 reasons, is either they are jealous that their favorite brand doesn't offer what another brand offered. Or the second reason could just be they wanted this device so badly. Personally I used before HTC, Samsung and even LG and although I prefer HTC Sense UI over the other 2, but the overall performance, usability and features of Samsung beat the rest of it, especially with the Note series. So my advice to those who keep bashing on which device is better than which, is either you stay away from the device that you dislike, or you go and do your research and find a way to resolve the minor issue you have with the device (for god sake, there are plenty of solutions available which is free) Btw, miss out one good thing about Iphone - its UI is more intuitive, more suitable for novice smartphone user. No, I am not saying those Iphone users are novice, I am just saying its UI is very easy to get familiar with. Android is more for power users who want to do customisations to their phones. Few of my friends/colleagues who were Iphone users bought the S3 but complain it is "hard" to use - need to do a lot of settings. I think 2 of them change back to Iphone 5 after it was released, both are ladies. |

QUOTE(owentan328 @ Sep 10 2013, 02:52 PM) Why can't Samsung fan boys accept the fact that TW is not smooth enough. if we accept TW not smooth and laggy, then what? Dun buy Note III but buy HTC/Iphone? There are people talking about TW laggy  I dun care what ppl talk - it is me using my own Note II, not other ppl using it for me, so why bother. You can complain/bash/whatever you want - but a lot of us will still get the Note III and enjoy ourselves - happily ever after. |
