Re: All about gadgets - Smartphones, Tablets, Consoles anyth
Recently hooted a MIC 5.3inch PHICOMM i813 with snapdragon 1.2ghz cpu for my colleague.
UI experience is smooth, power juicy enuff, camera wise... err... even though with 5mpx AF camera, photo quality kind of little disappointing and picture capturing is laggy. But @ the price of 240 w/1yr warranty... cannot hiam liao lah.
For comparison with other makes with close specs...

Re: All about gadgets - Smartphones, Tablets, Consoles anyth
Surprisingly... when i was @ Little India last nite... saw quite a number of shops selling this...M.I.C, Indian brand..
MICROMAX Canvas HD A116 with mtk6589 quad core cpu, dual sim, 8mpx AF camera, 5inch 720x1280p HD Screen and 2000mah removable battery
http://www.gsmarena.com/micromax_a116_c ... d-5256.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
... priced about the same @ 250 range, but no warranty.
And this is one Indian maker product that has been around in the market for more than 6mths.
KARBONN(made by ZTE) Titanium S5, snapdragon quadcore 1.2ghz processor, 5inch 540 x 960p IPS screen, 8mpx AF camera, 2000mah battery...
http://www.gsmarena.com/karbonn_s5_titanium-5374.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
...priced @ about 250 range, warranty set only available thru Mustafa
Seems that there's a tough fight between the China and India budget makers.
And when Jap maker jumps in...

10hrs discharge from 2am. Wi-Fi on.Ed.YEO wrote:
Hmm... i wonder how does this guy manage to get 2% discharge over 7+ hours.
In his post, he mentioned that the phone was unplugged from charger before he goes to bed. No notifications to any of his social media comes in during his sleep, 4G all the while. His mobile is Xperia Z.
I don't get such a result even if set my phone auto on/off with a 5hrs break. Does underclock CPU helps this much?
Use 2% only on my g2.

Re: All about gadgets - Smartphones, Tablets, Consoles anyth
Although ur phone's CPU have a higher clocking frequency than Xperia Z, ur beefy 3000mah battery and other power management adjustments may play a part in giving u such a good score.sellwatch wrote:10hrs discharge from 2am. Wi-Fi on.

Re: All about gadgets - Smartphones, Tablets, Consoles anyth
Ohh... that was 2wks ago... now the price should be lesser than what i had paid... which as 600.
Immediately after my hoot... i saw @ one of the Harvey Norman store selling 2 red bills less than what i paid, 4 days later.
Mustafa price should be much a couple of red bills off than HN.

Re: All about gadgets - Smartphones, Tablets, Consoles anyth
Hooted a new phone for the new year.
Initially intend to give it to my mum for her use, since i had managed to customize abit with large icons on the start menu.
However.... it seems that i will have to hold it for the moment, so that i can perfect all the customization before passing it to her.
(duh... her old card needs a change, for micro sim)
A surprise find.
I thought that the double tap wake up phone feature is only available in LG phones. Surprisingly, the 525 comes with this!
Competitively priced @ under 200 with local NOKIA warranty, with addition of good quality camera that can capture low noise night shots, customizable start menus for the ease of use... a good snapper gift for old folks.
