Smartphone and Cellphone Wars

[K.I.L.L.]

Atat na ako bumili kagabi, okay na sana Lenovo P780 kaso HSDPA lang pala yun. Kahit HSPA+ na lang sana at wala LTe okay na eh kaso 2 gens late na technology nila sa mobile data system. Need address nang Lenovo yan. Sa buwisit ko muntik ko na bilhin CM Titan 2.0 eh. haha

I checked that phone out and I didn't like it. I just got rid of my Cosmos X and replaced it with a cheap Flare HD which is a pretty darn good phone in my opinion.

Here's a new smart watch.

I bought an iP5s then i sold it to my friend. Buti nalang nabenta ko at kumita pa ako ng 4k. Nag dalawang isip ako nung nagda drive na ako pauwi eh. Antay nalang ako ng ibang phones na lalabas or other Xperia flagship.

sana update din nila battery.. the bigger the screen.. the faster the battery drains..

yup.... un nga lang ang downside. kaya nila gawin sa ipad bakit sa iphone hindi.

[_Qwerty_]

LG top phone flops in sale...the back buttons a turn off.

Yan ang hindi ko maiintindihan. Based sa mga reviews nang mga techie/tech sites halos 9/10 eh gustong gusto G2, tapos taas pa rating sa US consumer awards. Hindi naman awkward gamitin, yung double tap astig din na feature, so easy to use. Siguro mas sanay pa rin nga sa dating buttons yung karamihan nang consumers. Although the non-expandable memory might be its biggest cons kasi uso na nga full hd movies/pics and video recordings. Nabibitin sila. Also, the google nexus 5 is basically the G2 kaya i'm sure kumain din sa benta nila yun, mura eh.

Or maybe tama nag post dito na magaling lang talaga Samsung sa marketing. hehe

Sir yung CM amber 2999 lang hspa+ na. Yun gamit ng mom ko pang data spot lang sa ipad nya. Ok naman at hindi ma lag.

Get the Flare instead of Titan. Yung Cosmos S okay din parang iPhone. But nothing beats the Omega HD2 :D

Ayaw ko yung less than 4.5inches yung screen kaya hindi puwede flare at amber. Baba pa battery. Plus joke ko lang yung sa CM, mas matibay pa myphone eh so yung vortex at agua iceberg mini baka puwed pa kapag nagkataon.

I'll wait for the reviews and performance of Kata i3 muna. Andun na halos yung mga need ko, at leats 8gb ROM, good battery (vs CM/myphone counterparts), 3.5G connectivity at least (both sims pa), 5" 720p Hd screen, 1gb RAM, nice pricing and xperia-like design.

Other choices are xperia sp and lg optimus g. Lamang Kata i3 because i'm getting tired of having 2 phones, mas gusto ko na dual sim phones talaga.

ang pinagkaiba siguro ng G2 sa Nexus5 is the support and update from Google. sa Nexus line kasi continous ang update and first to get the update parati straight from Google. so pure android experience

btw, enjoying my Nexus 5 and Nexus 7

Ang ayaw ko lang sa mga local brand natin is ang baba ng pixel density. Yun iba 1080p at 5inch screen pero pixel count wala pang 400. Yun dapat iaddress nila. Para mailaban against the giants. Yun na lang ang kulang.

understand that they have to balance price:features. They can spec anything they want but the price will rise and the question that will loom is: Will the consumers buy it when it's priced so close to first class brands like Sony, Samsung, LG etc.

Camera nila pangit din lens kaya misleading ang quality based on megapixels. Sa screen hindi kasi high-end IPS or LCD gamit nila kaya ganyan. But sa price puwede na imho. Sa RAM, GPU at battery quality sila nagtitipid at yung sa lens nga.

Saan ka bumili nexus 5? Oo, mas updated nexus lines tapos mas mura pa. hehe.

Android 4.4 for Galaxy Note 3 now seeding in India and Baltic region



The Exynos-powered Galaxy Notes 3 in Russia have been recently updated with KitKat, while today both Exynos and S800 Note 3 units in South Korea, India, and the Baltic region (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) are joining on the KitKat fun too.
We guess the update process will now be hitting full steam and may more countries will be joining those in a few days. Reportedly the OTA update weighs at about 360MB, so you might want to make sure you download it over Wi-Fi when the time comes.

Mukha ngan ganun kasi yung lowest 3 yun yung talaga heavy skinned UI eh. Nexus 5 tignan mo bloatware free kaya mataas natira. Buti na lang may mga 32 gb versions mga yan at may mga memory slots. hehe

Suprising lang yung Z1, talo pa BBZ30.

[crazy_boy]

Ginagawa ko sa android ko ngayon naka upload na sa cloud mga pictures ko since naka 3g naman ako. Para kahit 16gb lang solve na.

The reason why I chose nexus is because of the pure android experience. Walang mga bloatwares. So far I'm happy with it.

South Korea rules pre-installed phone bloatware must be deletable
Summary: New guidelines will require the industry to allow smartphone users the option to delete unnecessary pre-loaded applications, to rectify unreasonable practices and reduce inconvenience.

Smartphone users in South Korea will soon be able to have the option of deleting unnecessary pre-installed bloatware, thanks to new industry guidelines commencing in April.

"The move aims to rectify an abnormal practice that causes inconvenience to smartphone users and causes unfair competition among industry players," said the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning, in a press release.

The measure will also help give users more data storage and improve battery life, said the ministry.

Under the new guidelines, telcos are required to make most of their pre-installed apps deletable except for four necessary items related to Wi-Fi connectivity, near-field communication (NFC), the customer service center and the app store.

For example, Samsung's Galaxy S4 released by SK Telecom has a total of 80 apps pre-installed, including 25 apps loaded by the telco, 39 by Samsung and 16 by the OS provider Google, noted Yonhap News. When the new guidelines kick in, at least half of those apps can be deleted, it added.

For the ruling to be effective here, kailangan may magfile for execution ng decision in a Philippine court. Eh sino naman ang mabuting Pilipinong gagastos para dyan.

Yan din gusto ko sa Nexus experience. Kaya wait ko kay Kimstore price drop sa Nexus 7.

Ayoko na mag iOS. Masyadong restrictive. Mga movies ko galing ******* di ko naia-upload sa iPad or iPhone ko, sa Note 10.1 ko nalang nilalagay pwede pa ako ag multi-task.
