Got myself a desktop charger with extra battery from http://www.superbuy.my/shop/p-202599-samsu...attery-kit.aspx

It's very convenient to have an extra battery where i can just swap and go whenever battery runs low

Ya very convenient. Actually, every phone you buy in Korea also comes with extra battery and external charger.
But Malaysia telco all cheap skate, don't want to give extras.

Anyway, RM189 is very expensive lo.
Personally I prefer desktop dock (can charge also). As I am always beside my PC.

That is standard price from Samsung for its battery cum charger since S4, Note 2 days
I bought original battery from EBay for about RM 109 vs RM 139 in Samsung retail
There are also plenty alternative generic batteries in ebay , dirt cheap average RM 20-40 only

dirt cheap RM20-40 I scare will explode.
IF exploded using cheap battery, Samsung WONT compensate you.

Anyway, any recommendation for GOOD and CHEAP charging dock like this?

Right. But you need a PC/Notebook with USB 3.0 port to take advantage of the higher transfer speed. I just transfer about 8 GB of movie files from my Vaio Pro 11 to the phone external SDCard and it just took under 5 mins. The Vaio comes with default USB 3.0 ports

comment pls. Still thinking it is not as sharp as others forumers...

Wow, what SD card you used? I'm using Transcend 32GB Class 10 already, but still slow when copying data although using USB3.0 transfer mode.

I tested it before, copying to internal storage for 1.8GB movie takes less than 1 minute. That's great.
But I take nearly 6 minutes to copy the same file into my phone external SD card.

I'm thinking of changing my SD card now, but it need to wait because I plan to buy the S-View cover first.

LG WANTS to get into the Knox game as well:

http://www.androidheadlines.com/2013/10/lg...d-to-lg-g2.html

When Blackberry had begun its downward spiral, crystal ball gazers everywhere started seeing the possibility of one day having an enterprise without any Blackberries. Since then many companies have offered up solutions, but so far Samsung’s Knox has been the most successful. Knox has even garnered the approval of the US Government, and is now allowing Samsung Galaxy phones to be used in government offices; a privilege long-held by Blackberry. Knox essentially works by isolating a “work environment,” a set of apps, a separate home screen launcher and more, from the rest of the phone. It utilizes the Secure Linux Kernel found within Android to do this, and ensures that no one outside of authorized users gains access to the phone without repercussions. This type of solution has lead to a new concept of bring your own device, or BYOD, and allows employees to use their personal phones at work all while keeping their personal information separate and secure work-related tasks and information. Seeing the obvious benefit that this provides to both users and manufacturers of smartphones, LG has announced their own similar solution, LG Gate.

It is ready stock?how many days u get it?

Android should avoid Knox altogether
Or atleast Samsung give us a choice whether we want to have Knox in our phone or not.

Err... about liquid armor. How do you know you applied? It's invisible right? You can't see the coating right?

test by scratching the screen with your keys or a blade 2 days after application of the screen protector.

I am using sandisk 64gb class 10

You will feel the friction but doesn't really affect your swiping experience.

Hi, just a quick note. Was reading on Anandtech's review on the Note 3, and during their display testing, it was noted that changing the screen mode to Movie (instead of Dynamic, standard etc) would make it more linear and controlled, not wildly oversaturated. Go check out the review if keen to read more

Actually, the only thing I might find a charging dock being useful IF it offers various connections such as multiple USB ports, micro SD slot (maybe), etc

Why are you so insecure about your Note 3's camera performance?

I will not save the extra bucks and risk of my life

Thanks.

I've made a few test just now. Using two cables, USB3.0 and USB2.0 original from Samsung into my USB3.0 port, I've tested copying an exactly 500MB file from C Drive (using SSD) into my internal and external storage (SDCard).

Here's the result.

-----------------
USB2.0 C: to Phone
Start 9:46:00
End 9:46:14
Total 14 Secs
Speed 35.74MB/s

USB2.0 C: to Card
Start 9:47:00
End 9:47:48
Total 48 Secs
Speed 10.42MB/s

-----------------
USB3.0 C: to Phone
Start 9:41:00
End 9:41:08
Total 8 Secs
Speed 62.50MB/s

USB3.0 C: to Card
Start 9:42:00
End 9:42:48
Total 48 Secs
Speed 10.42MB/s

Yeah, USB3.0 actually improve the transfer speed, although not too big in difference. And it quite fast for a single, big file.
Well, this is just a simple, not repeated test (result surely different if testing using 100 4KB files).

So, I think my card is not actually defect (hope so ), because I believe the standard class 10 is somewhere around 10MB/s. The speed is same either using 2.0 or 3.0.
This is surely not true if using the faster one, eg Sandisk Extreme Pro.
