QUOTE(blinky @ Feb 14 2014, 11:18 AM) Nope. Granted, the Note 3 is a hardware powerhouse and it is cramped with so many features, but how often do you actually use them? Sometimes, the user interface, the user experience and the OS just trumps the hardware. Agreed, I hardly use any of the Note 3 features except for swipe to screenshot. I'm just worried about losing the insane battery life of the Note 3. I'm not a fan of flashing ROMs (been there, done that, enough dy). Will see how my wife's Nexus 5 behaves for the next one week and then decide... or maybe I'll just go grab one later KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA

QUOTE(xKAIZERUx @ Feb 14 2014, 11:55 AM) Look what MKBHD did to his Note 3 and S4, he installed cyanogenmod. Samsung makes good hardware, but software are not their expertise. The BADA OS is dead, and Tizen will soon follow suit. either premature death or inevitable death after being ignored by developers. Oppo seem toward to right direction, come with cyanogenmod option. latest new about Samsung: Jolla engineer says lookout for SailFish OS on Samsung phones...

I also don't use all its features but "karate chop" See back my previous post on the battery life I had with my Nexus 5, occasional Whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram and browsing with Chrome gives battery life of 1 Day and 16 Hours with 2 hours plus SOT. Pretty amazing already cos this is pure Vanilla Android with nothing EXTRA running in background.

I know right??? Red came out 1 week after I got my Black and I was like "dayum". Well, what's most important is that the phone serves its true purpose to our daily life. Haha.

I'd gain a little hope back to Samsung, for rumor that their deal with Google to remove/minimize their UI, given that if Nexus line end rumor is correct.

Personal opinion for rooted phones: really feel those apps are not needed. Just need to understand what is preventing your phone from deep sleep/wakelocks and take appropriate actions for them. Might be useful for non-root phone.

Any background apps running? If on wifi, set wifi scanning off, on mobile try use 3g,reduce usage on lte. Any more info can provide?
