Being an android user with lots of surrounding iPhoners, they usually call me an Apple hater eventhough I've used iPad (lost it due to clumsiness). Sometimes its hard to explain to ppl this one simple question. "Why Android?"
Exactly.
Circumstances would only go worse when you mention the word "Nexus".
When ppl trying to ask you why do you choose Nexus?
I don't know why that's the most difficult thing I can ever explain about a phone. Prompt updates? ROMs...? Kernels...? Root...? Boot loader...? I would only say, Nexus can customize a lot and can tweak for good battery life.

Responses :
A. you sure boh...? Samsung cannot meh, also android mar!
B. Ohhh.... (Deep down there, I know they don't even understand a thing)
C. Cheh. iPhone also can jailbreak mar!

One thing about testing out experimental stuff on your phone, When you're trying to do something like keep rebooting to flash  and wipe cache and datas. My friends would go like "eh, you sohai, spoil lo! Also don't know wtf you doing." Even mounting a pendrive. He would like "wa! Can put pen drive ar! You don't act pro ar!" They wouldn't understand and kept nagging about what you're doing, calling you a phone geek sometimes. In saying this, I'm not a pro at tech stuffs, but when their Epal Aifon gone into some serious mess, I'm always the one they call first.

Being a Android enthusiast can sometimes be "unique"?
Wonder anyone else have experiences like mine. biggrin.gif

Guys, contrary to what you most use for wireless charging, i use a metrans MWT-03...

Works great, max charging temperature hits around 38-39 celcius. when it reaches 100% (i leave it on overnight) it idles at 34-35 celcius all the way (checked with battery monitor widget). other than a blinking blue led when it's charging, no complains aobut this charger thumbup.gif

Originally, i bought three units for my home, office, and car (wanted to mod it), but due to the amazing battery life of this thing even on stock rom and kernel, i only have to charge it at home, and it lasts me the whole day

Therefore, i'm selling my two other units, completely new in box, unopened, for RM75 each. Add RM10 for shipping for whole malaysia smile.gif

a bit of update: one reserved, one for sale (until i post in garage sale)

Here's a screenshot from BMW:

As u can see, charging (from a 750mAh motorola power adapter) takes around 3 hours (1grid=1hour) to get from 15%-100%, with temperature hitting 39.5c max (non air conditioned room, only window left open). Then it idles at around 32+c for the rest of the night.

I'm gonna leave this here for comparison wink.gif
