24hr sale

My colleague have data from professional battery testing but I don't want to trouble him.

Out of curiosity, are they using the same network? DRX settings make a big difference. I consider myself as a heavy users clocking 15GB this month and my Note Edge will last throughout the day until I get home and generally it still has 15-20% left. That would be around 10hrs.

It's Snapdragon 805

When's your delivery date, other has told me that their delivery date is much later compared to mine

It's too hard to throttle at application layer. If it's were to happen, I would think that it'll need root.

64kb is good for IM without pictures

There's a higher probability that drop call will happen during handover

Yes, it's faster but you'll need USB3.0 to utilize the additional speed. I bought it to future proof the card.

Finally got my original Note Edge flip case from Korea after 3 weeks. I'm disappointed with it though, it doesn't look premium and the back is quite thick. Paid US$40 for it.

Aussie version is SM-N910G whereas Malaysia version is SM-N910C. N910G supports most N910C bands and more (LTE 800 is not useful in Malaysia, it's used in UK). It'll be helpful when you roam to other countries. Also, Aussie version is a Category 6 phone which supports up to 300Mbps vs 150Mbps of Malaysia's version (Category 4).

Aussie consumer law mandate that all phone warranty is 2 years.

N910G:
LTE 700 / 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 TD-LTE 2300 / 2600

N910C:
LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600

Slight screen tone may not be accepted as I don't think that it's considered as defect; more like manufacturing variance. Unless the tone is really bad.

Check the warranty process, some will assist, some will refer you to Samsung Aussie

Can't see shit captain.

They should have used Sony A7s to shoot the video

I work in Telco industry and I'll share something that Note 4 and Note Edge owner doesn't like to hear, the antenna performance of these 2 units are poor. They don't meet my company's standard by 2-4dB depending on frequency and primary/secondary antenna.

In other words, Samsung S5, iPhone 6 and many other phones has better antenna.

A simple way to test is to use the same network for S5 and Note 4, put them side by side. Type in *#0011# and compare RSRP value. Note 4 and Note Edge will always show lower value (higher negative value).

Haven't checked Note 3 spec. What puzzles most of us is that there are so much space within these massive device to make good antennas but the performance is still poor.

May be they realise that no one can really check antenna performance hence it won't impede their sales. Apple products' antenna was bad, with iP6/6+, it improved by leaps and bounds.

Soft optimization may help but it won't make much difference.

The test methodology is quite complicated and it varies with frequency, primary/secondary antenna and a few more factors. I can't remember the figure on top of my head now.

Btw guys, don't worry if you can't find RSCP value, it's only available in 3G.

For 4G, you need to compare RSRP.

Just to also share, since my Note Edge is Category 6 phone and my network is configured with Carrier Aggregation, my signal icon is 4G+ rather than only 4G.

Not sure if you know OSI 7 layer, antenna capability is related to PHY layer performance. 3G or 4G is above the PHY layer.

To put it simply, if the antenna is poor, the signal strength will be poorer (less bars on your phone). When you have less bars, the voice call quality and data rate of your data session (download, FTP, YouTube, Facebook, and etc) is affected.

An analogy would be, imagine the antenna is your ear drum. If you have very good ear drum, you can hear better. After you hear the sound, then only your brain starts to process the info. If your ear drum is bad, it's very hard to hear anything hence there's not much for the brain to process.

I pretend to be

Strong signal, very good signal, and etc are subjective words; however the figures above can be used as a guide.

Also, RSRP is just a power measurement (how strong is the signal), RSRQ is the quality of the signal.

Back to the ear drum analogy, you can hear someone trying to shout into your ear at a club but you can't hear much because the background music is just too loud (interference).

A little birdy told me that Lollipop for N4 and NE (aussie version) will be released in Jan
