Btw... Was pretty excited about galaxy gear till found out only support galaxy series... Lame. Note 3 is what I expected to be but not sure to upgrade my note 2 or not... I can't be leaving my xzu in the drawer... If only... Just if only all the goodies note 3 features in xzu body... Haha. The galaxy gear makes smartwatch 2 not that smart after all.

I want the Galaxy Gear until I saw the price, battery life and only support high end Galaxies which will be useless if I jump ship.

I read it's about 1400? I'm still very tempted provided of it supports other phones. Last time Sony smart watch came out also claimed supports sony phones only.


QUOTE(icemessenger @ Sep 5 2013, 04:45 PM)
walao, so many people are buying note 3

QUOTE(gogo2 @ Sep 5 2013, 04:55 PM)
XZU is being rush out just before Note 3 because its hard to sell any phablet if Note 3 is out.

You're seeing the effect now.  brows.gif
*
Samsung really put in effort of making a phablet useful instead of just making it big.
Like xzu. So big screen + water dust resist. No multi windows. Just small apps. No extra smart features to fully utilize the big screen. The didn't go deep enough to make a phablet. Samsung is really putting the usage into consideration instead just boasting the outlook.
I'm sure most of the previous note users will miss all these if they switch to xzu like me. Haha.

how many times you really multi task like using both windows in a phone's screen, the xzu mini multi task for me is good enough, we can call out the calculator, voice recorder, take screen shot thru the tab function.

the big screen really shines when ur watching video, movie, reading ebook, surfing lowyat.net,  tongue.gif
*
Don't always multitasking with multi windows but it's good to have instead of switching between apps.

QUOTE(h11g @ Sep 5 2013, 06:28 PM)
that price is definitely expensive for a smart watch, anyways i really like the idea but i guess ill be really shy to talking to my watch in public, unless it becomes main stream~! haha  tongue.gif
*
Hope that's not the real rrp.
I would definitely use it to pick up calls all the time since I used a 7" tab to make calls before. Haha
Samsung made a very daring move, comparing to smart watch 2, the functions n specs of galaxy gear is like a few generations later. It makes me thinking the smartwatch 2 is just a mere watch with notifications.

sorry for many questions biggrin.gif
*
Of you can stick to Optimus for two years.. XZU will last you 5. Haha
Sbh 52 not out yet. Best price now should be 20xx.

QUOTE(Neomax3 @ Sep 6 2013, 12:35 PM)
Guys, need some help here.. what is the best SOT u get with ZU with wifi,3g ON or either one ON? in the midst of debate bout battery life of ZU with my friend here.. 3050mAh is sufficient?
*
Sot nearly 6 hours. If you are average user. The battery can easily pass a day use under stamina mode.

Nothing to be afraid of. Just a bug in reboot n easily solved by ensuring that you select optimized backlight ( if you have disabled it).  The overall benefits in the upgrade overwhelm this small issue
*
Really? I did not mess with the settings at all and my xzu just go into SOD randomly but I still can see very low light on the screen till I reset it then only it totally turn off.

QUOTE(gin&tonic @ Sep 6 2013, 08:08 PM)
OTA no sod. Everyone shud OTA to update. This is interesting.  hmm.gif

QUOTE(Hertz96 @ Sep 6 2013, 08:34 PM)
So far, happy to report that  have not experienced Fake Hang after OTA. Will observe and see whether got SOD.

Don't say too fast. I update tru pcc and even repaired the phone with pcc and sod happened a week later.

that's why it's not advisable to use the ori facebook app. besides the app wakes up the device to sync ever so often
get a dock~! or a magnetic charging cable.  flex.gif

QUOTE(franzcys @ Sep 12 2013, 02:02 PM)
LOL ...

That's why i never use FB on XZU lo ... use it on IP4 instead .

Not only that , i found that most of the Apps using more memory compare to Note2

Perhaps .... 3gb Ram would be an ideal solution ... or maybe 4gb
*
What's alternatives apps u guys use?
My xzu ram is now struggling at 5-600 Mb free!!!

uninstall everything. Root it. Then freeze all unused system apps that hogging the RAM

Else, have to upgrade to Note 3 with 3GB RAM.  drool.gif
*
Best solution but aren't there any apps to freeze unuse stuff?

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 12 2013, 02:26 PM)
The increase of resolution will impact the apps size, means will impact RAM usage.
Mine still ok. smile.gif

user posted image

and you left out around 600MB is still pretty ok. It is not like left out 200MB, then is troublesome.
*
Mine was around there till I installed gravity screen... Side bar... All these add on apps..

QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 12 2013, 02:30 PM)
Why would u say yr ram is struggling?  Ram is just space for apps to run. Low free ram means either lots of running apps or good memory utilization by the os. Lots of free ram is not entirely desirable in a modern os.
*
Because as the ram goes lower.. I every time I went back to home screen with home button... The widgets will slowly pop up..

QUOTE(h11g @ Sep 12 2013, 02:51 PM)
personally i use friendcaster. try it
the charging cable? i bought another dock just so i can have the cable remove. but i think some forumers posted the cable before.
*
Will try. Thanks

I use Titanium Backup Pro to freeze unused stuff
2GB RAM is not suitable to install all those fancy stuff.
*
QUOTE(un_id @ Sep 12 2013, 03:54 PM)
i don't think so, 2gb is still sufficient.. in my previous HTC One, i may use the fanciest launcher, with plenty widgets always on the multiple home screen, its all running smooth, and the RAM never completely hogged.. but for XZU, honestly the stock ROM is not that smooth… some jerking sometime.. oh well… but i never be in serious condition  in which it become really lag..

i think for some user, there are some apps thats hogging the RAM.. especially those free apps, be careful
*
So could be just stock Rom problem?
But If its hogging I still be able to see it on running apps right?
