seems not bad, haven't update yet for my iphone 5

I read that ios7 causes a drop in ipong5 battery life.

Earlier today I posted a link to an Anandtech review of the device. He goes into great detail about 64 bits and performance, and what it holds for the future.

Interestingly, he predicts it will take 2 years before 64 bits becomes a major part of the ecosystem, and that Apple tried to jumpstart the whole process by adopting straight the ARMv8 instruction set instead of customizing their own stuff.

Curious, is it a normal practice to have the NFC antenna embedded in the battery, rather than the device itself?

From SG Note 3 manual:
"The battery contains a built-in NFC antenna. Handle the battery carefully to avoid
damaging the NFC antenna."

wow nobody actually want smart flip case? 

ok no problem, waiting you 2 good news
other can join too
but not if you get nano steinshell, back cover also got SP
I'm going, but no idea for time yet
go there kepo

The back cover, is it hard plastic made to look like leather, or plastic covered with real leather, or some fake leather-ish soft rubber material?

Ya, after get confirmation in Monday just decide the meet up timing.

Ah..ic, make sense. Thanks!
Any reason why it isn't embedded in the phone itself (like the radio,gps etc. antennas?)

sorry ah, i mentioned earlier i won't be able to meet up even if i actually won because my friend wants to get note 3 too but he needs to be some place else after buying so quite rush.

I think is soft plastic cover with faux leather.

Or just a plastic with leather texture feel.

So for sure no one knows. Weird, because even from reading all the IFC coverage news, none of the sites actually describe in detail what the back cover is actually like. I'd love to see it in real leather with a solid internal spine. Then it'll be hard to scratch, can develop a nice stained look, and actually feel nice in your hands. Compared to cheap crap disposable plastic feeling on S3, S4 and N2.

Confirm is not real leather, how many animal you gonna kill???

If leather will be faux leather.

For the previous SN2, I didn't use any SP as recommended by Samsung.
How many here uses a SP and felt it's actually no difference when using the SPen?

Want to know whether to buy SP or not for SN3.

They're gonna die anyway. I eat them. Daily. Don't mind if its faux leather. At least something nice to hold not crap cheap thin plastic that looks and feels like chap fan microwave oven box.

Die animal skin is rotten, cannot use as leather.

You need to peel the skin when the animal alive.

PETA might want to have a word with you... I still wish for leather. The leather ipad smart covers are sooooo nice.

I am happy back to Samsung, finally I can return back no SP life.
