I put up some detailed information in post 1 under "Specs in Depth" regarding LTE battery control. You may want to check it out. Probably equivalent battery as Note 2.

You should spend abit less than RM200 for up to 13000mAh quality powerbanks, and not those RM 100 or less yet quoting 20k or 30k mAh.

13000mAh should give you up to 3 full charges for 3200mAh.

HAHAHA....well yes I'm not complaining, BUT:

the comment on the article:

Having a 64-bit processor in a phone is like owning a ferrari in Africa. Our roads are crap and u will never realize the true power of the ferrari even if you can afford one.

True, the Linux kernel can ‘morph’ between 32-bit and 64-bit instructions but as long as the rest of the software does not take advantage of the 64-bit instruction set, then the 64-bit processor becomes redundant.

I gotta admit, Touch ID is pretty cool.

Should be "wife's" or "wive's". The "v" spelling should have been the recently-deprecated version.




wives' = PLURAL....how many do you have ahhh? I am envious.

My Fujitsu F-02E has a fingerprint sensor too, it usually takes 2 swipes to authenticate. Then again maybe I have skin that varies between very dry and very oily.

The spec sheet says it's a proprietary sensor, so I don't know what kind of sensor it is. However the app "miLock" works very well with it.



To all,

I would like to suggest the app "miLock" if you need to control access to specific apps (eg Parental Control) but it doesn't control folder access.

Andrew_1980 what is the access control app you use? I asked you a couple of days ago in the XZU thread.

Ya strap a waterproof armband and get the S3 LTE you're all set man !!!!!!!!

You can but you need a newer SIM from like 2011 and later.

For Maxis, it works only on postpaid.

If you have to cut the sim it's probably from before 2011

At the expense of others saying I'm feeding the troll (you), you should be able to judge for yourself the experience with Android so far, and your Note 2 usage. Come on, every fruit product is a locked in walled garden. Some enjoy the experience.

I have read comments like "Android is so complex, I love my ixxx, it just works" all over the ipong thread. Well fine for them if they want it that way. There isn't any complexity in Android if you don't want it to be. If ipong was so simple, why the complaints of settings all over the place until it got fixed sometime in 6.x and maybe 7 ?

The money is yours. Follow your needs rather than peer pressure.

He's been well mannered so far, especially with his Note 2.

2 interesting links about 64 bits on your device

http://www.zdnet.com/the-iphone-5s-goes-64...ter-7000020497/

http://www.zdnet.com/2015-64-bit-arm-chips...ple-7000020524/

These articles both have some insightful thinking and also insightful comments.

It means that we will have full computing power almost like a desktop in our pockets one day in the near future. Now if only they could make it like the Poweblok concept.....

It seems the note3 has impacted sony's pricing on the xzu lte...allegedly it is going for 2088, but don't know if that's a parallel import set or not.

I think the ultimate test is whether u can sit properly n comfortably with the device in yr pocket.

I'm 5'7" and the note2 with an otterbox passes both conditions.

As I replied to some user in the XZU thread, its size is both its blessing and curse.

If you want a manbag, then I guess it's fine. You lose stylus functionality though.

Then again, you must MAKE.BELIEVE should you ever want to replace the screen.

TS of Note 1 thread also pissed off with Samsung .......


Anyway....

Preferred colors:

White and pure 19 19%
Black and classy 61 60%
Pink and feminine 10 10%
I'll wait for more colors 12 12%

Well look at the desktop market. It took about 5 years to transition SOFTWARE to run 64 bit goodness. You won't miss anything for at least 1 year on the mobile.

In fact, despite Windows 7 being 64 bit, M$ does recommend some programs remain at 32 bits for MORE FEATURES....coz even they haven't ported everything over. Maybe this year it will change, since we've got Windows 8.1 now.

Still, it's a good thing that fruity started the ball rolling. This was a big surprise for everybody, although practically useless for at least 1 year.
