I've been using celcom on my Z2 then earlier i switched it to my note 4, the signals went really poor. 1-2bars only and scores at max 1mb dl speed in speedtest. Then i did a phone restart,the signals now full all the time. Not even a drop and constantly on 3g. That is weird and i hope it consistently stays this way. unsure.gif

I don't think speed should be no 1 factor when considering the note 4 or any other note series.. You are comparing 2 very different phones. The Note 4 easily wins it for me with the S pen functionality,screen size and camera which was also why i got it at the first place. If you're looking for a fast fluid phone and don't care about the S pen,there are easily many other phones to choose from at lower price. Just saying smile.gif

Firmware stability too. Just look at all the issues zenfone 1st gen had. I presume it will only be slightly better on the zenfone 2. Lets see how the zenfone 2 performs in the coming months. ...

Yepp,that's one of many other reasons. biggrin.gif

haha, thats why, for myself, as in my own personal phone, I will go on with note series. For three generations(note2,3,4) it has not dissapointed m, so no reason to change, although Im really tempted by huawei these days. The mate 7 is seriously awesome but I didnt dare purchase it as im still wary of all these chinese brand. Lets see how its successor fares smile.gif

But lenovo, you pay me to use also i dont want la tongue.gif

True, don't let the spec sheets takes over you. Suddenly all these china new brands coming out with super speed selling at low price. Don't forget that the inner beauty is always more important. laugh.gif One must consider the build quality,softwares, the after sales service and the developer community behind it. The only potential china companies i see so far are Huawei and Xiaomi.

Have tempered glass on top but maybe not my luck this time. Really hit at the unprotected corners.
Luckily mine not dent. Only the glass crack. And surprisingly still able to use the screen.
Luckily still under warranty. They said make sure repair only at Samsung SC to prevent warranty void of the device. Plus my phone CSC code changes to THL from XME. Have to send back to Samsung.
Even with the tempered glass SP still not safe. Mine exactly hit the unprotected sides of the screen.
Have on top of it but the tempered glass does not crack. The screen does.  biggrin.gif
*
Remind me not to drop mine on tar road..... shakehead.gif
do you mind sharing what glass you had on? was it 0.3mm or thinner


On the other hand, does anyone know an effective way to stop google play from consuming battery? its been draining my N4 lately. Loli is really bad on battery even after a factory reset. If this goes on,i may have to consider downgrading back to kitkat sleep.gif

LOL, tar road is basically all the normal roads used by cars outside, all those little stones are glued together with tar, the result is a hard and rough surface your phone wouldn't like falling on.  laugh.gif

tar is the same black toxic thing that will be coating your lungs all over after sucking cigarettes for years laugh.gif

how about waze.. already fix or not?  hmm.gif

I just love that feeling when decided to shop for a new gadget. You must be excited brows.gif
I'd say white or bronze gold. Bronze gold is definitely fun to play with. You dont see many carry this color tongue.gif
But then it's up to you.
If i'm not mistaken, the black one has more curvier screen edge compared with others thus you may find a little more difficult in finding a fitting tp glass for it.

Ps : waze still has the graphical issue on lolipop

hahaha.. already decide to go with gold.. already call shop.. they say new restock..so dunno in box kit kat or lollipop..

now thinking to get what case.. prefer back case.. plan to get uag.. but i hear ppl say it will strach the note 4 side..even though using original uag..
*
thumbup.gif congrats with your choice

even if its on kitkat,you can ask the staff there to update for you to loli foc smile.gif
the case thing is very subjective. If you're gonna remove the phone a lot from the case,if not careful also will scratch the sensitive chrome sides. Just be extra careful. Perhaps back cases with rubberized bumper sides are safer.

UAG is good, but quite expensive
last time use on my s3, very nice
right now I using ringke fusion mint colour match with my gold note 4 laugh.gif

*side note, if you buy gold colour is quite difficult to buy casing to match note 4, good luck
got colour one ???

I saw the same thing on lelong before. Are they the same brand?

At 0.33 mm thickness, i can't imagine how it looks having the coloured sides pumped up replacing the original home button surface. Some pics of yours would be nice to feed my curiosity on that tongue.gif

I hate those colour tempered glass one, looks ugly doh.gif
but should be same laugh.gif
some forumer here using it
but I saw somebody using it on their iphone 6 say the colour metal break already
so better don't go with it, better go for slim / tough armor
else best choice, go for ringke fusion, a lot of us using it
before that I using slim armor gold colour, is nice but quite heavy and make my phone more bulky, harder to put inside pocket laugh.gif
*
I say if you get the gold note 4, don't go with the spigen neo. It looks boring and dull with the all black back. laugh.gif
I'm still using my ringke fusion but sometimes i feel like switching to my led flip case back. Changed my mind of selling it off, i think its good to keep extra different cases. Can switch case everytime your mood switches laugh.gif

so here are the steps

1. have an account and login before 11am
2. click the 1st link at 11am in order to get RM 50 / 100 voucher
3. add the item what I want, example 2nd link for s view case
4. checkout > select the coupon > pay remain price > wait for item to ship

that all right ?

1. Short say, it'll be better if you stay logged in before clicking the big Download button on the promo page that i linked you so it wouldn't prompt you to log in first in order to receive the coupon.You will lose the golden time to get one of the coupons. laugh.gif

2. The big button that says Download on that page yep. If successful, you will see a pop up page that congrats you for winning either one of the coupons. smile.gif

3/4. Yes, After winning the coupon, you will see the coupon in your coupon inventory. You have 7 days to use it before i goes expired from the time you got it. biggrin.gif

want to comment about waze, since. I have updated to lollipop on my note edge, no problem with what you guys experience, however I do root it and use the snapdragon version of note edge

Well since we're in note 4 thread means we are talking about the waze problem on note 4..... good for you that it works well on your note edge smile.gif

yes I am very well aware of that,  however these two are like siblings no? many review said that the only difference is the additional edge screen with some sottware complementing it, the rest is the same, is it?
*
They do share similar specs however these are still two different phones. Unless they were manufactured at the same time then we can argue on how come waze only works on one of them. laugh.gif The note edge is still a newer variation than note 4.

furthermore, if we want to rectify the problem, I think we can look from its nearest siblings, which in this case the note edge, unless u just want to whine "o i kenot use waze on lollipop so useless" maybe try to look out why note edge can and note 4 cannot, please dont be so arrogant with "this thread is xclusive only to note 4 ppl" mentality, i am just giving suggestion
*
Umm perhaps you're overreacted a little upon what i said? How was i arrogant? you're using the note edge. Why would i be arrogant with my humble note 4? im just stating the fact that we been focusing the waze problem on note 4 and well awared that other models does not suffer from this issue on lolipop. Relax and take a breeze... biggrin.gif

I think I am overreacting a little bit, sorry for that, its just ticks me when mentioning about this thread is for this, cannot discuss about other things here, again really2 sorry

On other side, both N4 and NE launched at sane time, its just that NE arrived in msia a bit later than N4 (too late imo). I am no developer, but maybe we can suggest them to see why NE on lolli can use waze but N4 cannot?
*
That's okay i go off topic too at times.It's labor day and im in extra good mood.Avengers 2 tonight anyone? (off topic laugh.gif )

and regarding the waze on NE and N4, maybe the blame should be on the people who did a flop job with the firmware on note 4 and then they realized it and fix their mixtake on NE. sweat.gif Can only wait for the next fw update for note 4 hopefully would solve it smile.gif
