Samsung never fails to make my decision making tough.

Exynos version:
64 bit ready
Reportedly better camera
Better performance

SD version:
Better dev support
Reliable

I wish I could buy both so that I can get the best of two worlds. sad.gif

You can. Buy N910C at local then later go Singapore buy N910G. tongue.gif

I hope Samsung can better tune the HDR! It is not really good, sometimes over expose in light area, and generate more noise. Just before all night shoot I take all with and without but end up I pick all without.

You can easier fight back. Keep your phone idle to cooling down then test again.

My short review (in summary):

user posted image
  • Performance - the best QHD resolution phone I tested so far. Smoothness 95% as they is still slightly 3 seconds delay opening recent apps, the briefing add on is not well done especially the open effect, it is not pull out but jump out. Hmm... sometimes they is still slightly jittering when minimise apps and also during scrolling 2nd apps under multi window.
  • Real Camera - extremely awesome, I believe the best so far in day light, night shoot wise second best. Today later will do some comparison with iPhone 6 plus. The taken time is extremely fast, no single delay event at night.
  • Front camera - great for selfie, bright and clear. The wide selfie wise is not as easier to use as promote.
  • Screen quality - I give 95% as well. If you dimmer down the screen then you will notice they is slightly color shift at bottom part at white background. It is more easier to see the wave on bottom end when you put the phone horizontally and look closer to eye. I check others demo set at CS and all same. Please don't purposely check it if you never seen it. smile.gif But this is by far much much better than my previous Note 3 AMOLED screen. Beside this, the screen is absolutely awesome! The best AMOLED screen I ever seen and use.
  • QHD resolution - is this gimmick? Hardly to said, seriously I can't spot any differences compare with FHD. Oops! It is not like HD to FHD that kind of big differences wow!
  • Battery Life - surprisingly great! At least the SOT is better than Note 3.
  • Touchwiz UI - the best ever by Samsung. Flat nice design and finally can put folder inside apps drawer everywhere back not like initial release in S5 UI which can't. They is two draw back compare with S5. Why Samsung remove the color selection for folder! Also the new briefing is badly implement compare with S5 one. Beside this please implement way for disable or moving to bottom the S Finder and Quick Connect at notification, it is annoying as sometimes I do accidentally click it when clicking the clear button.
  • Samsung widget - I love all the Samsung widget, this time all well done with flat look semi transparency especially the main clock weather widget.
  • Bloatware - I don't find any extra Bloatware this time. Those keep complaining Samsung is bloat shall really go check it out before judge. Also if you use China phone especially Xiaomi then you will know what is really call bloat.
  • Loud Speaker - far louder and better than Note 3 but put back at real is really a big wrong decision. Why oh why you move from previous great bottom location to real. Now I truly miss my HTC One M8 awesome stereo loud speaker.
IN OVERALL I GIVE SCORES OF 95%. smile.gif

Andrew Great quick review..seriously I doubt one can find a 100% score smartphone
Every phone will sure had some cons n is a matter of how serious it is
If the cons affect your usage just avoid buying the phone

Thanks. smile.gif

Ya as they is never have 100% perfect things in world. smile.gif
