QUOTE(ghoss @ Jan 29 2021, 03:26 AM) me too.. initially wanted to go for xiaomi mi 11 pro but now the mi 11 already show signs of heating problem. at first i was skeptical about samsung phone. the history of lag and exynos chip and heat issues. i just have 1 complaint for the s21 ultra. it only supports 25w fast charging. to me its not enough for the price that we are paying for the phone |

QUOTE(yayiyu99 @ Jan 29 2021, 10:19 AM) For me 25W is already fast enough and also good for your battery health. S21 ultra also has insane battery power so why you need much faster charger which can make your phone burnt. i understand your concern. however, super charging technology has became very matured already . battery health when super charging it is not an issue. since i've been using huawei super charging with my huawei p10 (huawei the one came out with super fast charging first , exclude qualcom QC3 la) for 3.5 years liao the battery on my p10 never failed until today. |

QUOTE(dh13 @ Jan 29 2021, 10:40 AM) You can still get the Launch Gift, but not more Galaxy Buds Live or Galaxy Buds Pro i dont think is software limit. i think they purposely use 25w only ..I hope it is software restrisction, who know they might change it in firmware / software update in the future.. but as long as i can use it for a full day when i am going out.. i am satistfied.. Currently using S10 and the battery life is not good... because samsung has the history of charging heat problem which causes battery explode. previous samsung phones battery life no good due to they inhouse exynos chip problem. (s20u exynos 990 vs SD865) thats why now new samsung phone come with very big battery pack to compensate the battery life issue. |

QUOTE(joeblow @ Jan 29 2021, 11:13 AM) Yes they should have done what oppo did. Spilt into 2 batteries. Could be a patent issue. think of it this way. wired charging = direct copper to copper connection to battery. = more efficient power conversion.Btw for charging, is wireless charging bad? Read somewhere wireless charging heats up the phone real bad. Direct charging or wireless charging better for phone? wireless charging = induction energy transfer. = lost off energy between transfer = less efficient, energy loss as heat. same goes to induction cooker top (electric) (50% energy conversion efficiency) VS gas cooker top (90% energy conversion efficiency.) for me i still prefer wired fast charging. instead of wireless charging solely because of energy transfer efficient and faster charging speed. (in this case samsung la). (other brand have super fast wireless charging 50w eg xiaomi/huawei) weeuweed liked this post

QUOTE(kradun @ Jan 29 2021, 11:28 AM) P10 just 22.5W, so the damage to battery wont be as great as those higher W charger. Even OPPO also put a disclaimer on their flash charge will degrade the battery faster. And if about battery never failed, my old iphone 4s still in working condition even todate. But if change phone every 1 or 2 year or not heavy gaming user then battery degrade slightly faster mayb wont cause any significant impact to the user also. yes huawei 22.5w charging considered nothing fast by today's standard. Then on samsung 25W charger, my experience with samsung M51 7000 mah battery and 25W charger usually can fully charge in 2hours, and can last me 2.5-3 days. Flash charge / quick charge is very fast when the battery life is below 50%, so when battery run low on juice just a quick refill of 10min can last me another half day, 25W also not really lagging behind too much, no right or wrong just depend on each people different usage. please bare in mind 4 years ago. huawei 22.5w charging vs samsung / apple 10/15w charging. yes we know that the super fast charging only effective when very low juice just charge 10/20 min then good to go. for a new more hours of use. compare to slow charging need to wait more time to get battery for few more hours of usage. super fast charging for me is super useful since i do not have the time to let the phone sit there and charge i go many other thing/work to do. |

QUOTE(joeblow @ Jan 29 2021, 01:01 PM) It was there since morning 12 midnight. You need to change the left one to online. But I don't think it matters. hahahYes fitbit 2 can still be redeemed. You get the anc when they deliver the phone. Fitbit2 for preorder you need to redeem via separate link. Someone posted it here and I don't have it on the phone. For the first 10k redemption. Not sure if Malaysia can sell 10k of s21? My phone only will arrive Sunday. Invoice and imei only retrievable then... Thanks for explanation. I guess I will just use wireless, protect wear and tear of USB c hole lol 😂 fun fact, did you know why samsung only use 15w wireless charging? due to they scared got heat issue with wireless charging when using high W charging. and wireless 15w charging . actual amount you charging to your phone using wireless charging only 8~10w. due to lost of efficiency (in theory la). hahha weeuweed liked this post

QUOTE(vexus @ Jan 29 2021, 01:04 PM) mi11pro maybe battery smaller than mi11. Need to house additional camera. Mi11 battery drain so badly, mi11pro even faster. very true. but donno miui 12.5 will help with battery management or not. because youtube review test all on MIUI 12.0 which is super laggy and battery hogger. |

QUOTE(Azureknight94 @ Jan 29 2021, 01:14 PM) After a year of using Exynos 990 (S20U and Note20U), Samsung finally did it right with the new Exynos 2100. nice one. Battery life on my new S21U is significantly better. 50% 4hours SOT. This is on full WiFi though. Will have to monitor the next few days and see what kind of battery life I get at work on 4g. Screen setting is QHD 120hz. planning to get it after MCO.... |

QUOTE(chaukeng @ Jan 30 2021, 01:39 PM) On the contrary, Mobile shops across Msia recorded high sales volume since the first MCO. Plenty of spare cash from prihatin. They have no choice. Need to buy for their kids for online study. Plus work from home people need to spend money to buy new phone and laptop. Since their current devices cant cope with technology demand. Zoom. Excel, remote desktop. Etc. Hence, computer and smart phone sales Sky rocketed |
