Nokia Lumia 920 & 820, Cool!!

2013-05-12T19:10:00.000+08:00

Nokia has launched yet another set of Lumia series phones but with slight upgrade from its predecessors. It is Lumia 920 and 820 which is already on sale worldwide. Nokia didn't get the expected amount of sales but they still manage to bring back its genuine style and simplicity which makes all the past nokia-fans to be interested in buying this phone.

Lumia 920

Lumia 920 has suited one of the best optics from Carl Zeiss,PureView technology with the PureMotionHD+ display which gives the best quality of the screen and camera. The display is more crisp and has a better viewing pleasure compared to other smartphones eventhough both of its CPUs are only 1.5 dual-core GHz. Both Lumia 920 and 820 runs on Microsoft Windows 8 which has simple yet stylish tile interface which gives latest updates from facebook, twitter and any other social networks. But this OS is lack of new and popular apps because its only present in the market for past year so the apps are still under development which we can use in the near future. These are the more detailed info about Lumia 920 and 820 :

iPhone 5,Just an iPhone.

2012-11-04T17:50:00.003+08:00

Apple launched their new iPhone which is called iPhone 5 on 12 Sept with some of other music products like iPod Touch and Nano. They look awesome and unique but the Nano looks quite familiar with the one from Samsung. So any updates on any latest suing issues??i don't think there is any. Anyway,lets look at the iPhone 5. New iPhone,new processor,new blah blah and a lot of new features. But its the same iPhone on a new body piece. Its 0.5 inch taller than the older iPhone but it thinner 18% compared to its predecessor.

Apple has done an amazing work on its screen even though its still smaller and lack of ppi, some how they've managed to embed the sensors into the screen which makes the screen the only sensor for the phone. They've not changed the battery capacity but its new dual-core processor with some slight changes on its spec have given the phone an advantage of not killing the battery too much.

Even if there is some lacking in the new iPhone. Its still the best one yet and have high demands which can't be beaten by other companies. iPhone 5,just another iPhone by Apple or the best smartphone yet?

Galaxy Note 2,Overwhelming?

2012-09-03T13:25:00.004+08:00

Its been nearly a year since the launch of Samsung Galaxy Note which have amazed most of the smartphone companies and satisfied alot of users. Now, theres a new member in the family of Galaxy Notes, which is Note 2(N7100).

The specs are quite overwhelming for a smartphone, where it has 5.5 inches of super AMOLED suited with Quad-core 1.6GHz processor and a huge battery capacity to support the screen and the processor. Its body looks quite similar to Galaxy S3 but looks more bulky with less curves. By launching this phone, again Samsung have set a new standard for smartphones which will be challenge for other mobile companies to compete.

Nokia Lumia 900,Toughest Smartphone?

2012-06-26T18:53:00.001+08:00

Nokia has finally step up its game with its own unique kind of way by launching its Lumia Series which is powered by Windows OS. This latest series have 4 mobile phones,for now, which is Lumia 900,800,710 and 610. 710 and 610 has their own design but not like 900 and 800 which is has the same unibody design similar to its predecessor which is Nokia N9 .

So,the as the title says,toughest smartphone??physically it looks kinda tough with its polycarbonate unibody which is said to be scratchless. There are some tests done to determine the strength of the phone. But who knows,theres always a different story in different hands. Watch this video,if u want to know what i meant:

So,the unibody is quite an interesting feature to look at, but the one that i like the most is its interface. It uses Windows Phone 7.5 Mango,which is by the the latest OS by Microsoft. Eventhough its suited with a standard processing unit, which is only single-core 1.4 GHz processor, its still smooth without lags. The battery life is impressive and long lasting. Its one of the way Nokia attracts buyers with this
important aspect for users nowadays and it uses less energy cause it only has to fuel a single-core processor,not a dual or quad-core processor which sucks out all our battery life. It has internal 16gb memory,not much but i dont think its gonna be a problem.

In my opinion, Nokia has gone down and submerged for too long and also been an 'underdog' for a long time. Its has been a rough pace for Nokia but now its time to rise back with its new Windows Phone. Eventhough its not on a same level as iPhone, but its worth a shot.

S3 vs. 4s vs. One X

2012-05-13T18:11:00.002+08:00

Samsung has launched its new Quad-Core phone which is the Galaxy S3. It is likely to be the rival phone for both the HTC One X and the upcoming iPhone 5. Samsung has set some high standards without going overboard on its hardware and physical characters. They have managed to level up with HTC and iPhone with lots of new features.

S3 has "S Beam" which is similar to iCloud but its for the Galaxy S3(for now). Samsung has come up with more user friendly techs such as the smart alert,smart stay and also the S Voice which is like Siri for iPhone 4S. The predecessor,Galaxy S2,has a much smaller screen compared to S3's 4.8 Super Amoled. Eventhough its a bigger screen,the pixels are quite low compared to 4S and One X. These are the more detailed comparison among the current rival for S3 :

Phones	Samsung Galaxy S3	HTC One X	iPhone 4S

In my opinion,Galaxy S3 has some plus points such as the smart alert,smart stay and a much better battery life compared to the iPhone and HTC. For now,maybe the S3 is a much better phone out there but I think,iPhone will come out with something more different and something we can't get our hands off. What do you think?

HTC One X, Worth buying?

2012-04-12T17:02:00.001+08:00

Hey everyone,theres a new mobile phone by HTC. Its the first phone suited with quad-core processor and new imageChip by HTC (going against apple abviously),its the HTC One X. So the phone is so smooth but i dont think it can beat the upcoming iphone 5 which also has quad-core(rumours). These are the specs :

Phones	HTC Sensation XL	HTC One X

Battery	Standard battery, Li-Ion 1600 mAh	Standard battery, Li-Ion 1800 mAh

The display is much better than other latest HTC phones and it comes with gorilla glass..at last!. Its screen is 4.7 inch, same as the Sensation XL, with better resolution. HTC now changed its lower keys to suit the IceCream Sandwich (android 4.0). Even with lots of new features from HTC, i feel like something is missing from the phone. Lack of design??maybe. So,the phone costs about $700-800 USD and RM1800-2000 in Malaysia. And you can notice that theres already some SECONDHAND HTC One X in the web. So whats the problem?

More comparisons will be uploaded soon.

iPad 2 vs. iPad(3/HD)

2012-03-11T16:23:00.000+08:00

Apple just came out with the latest generation of ipad and they are calling it iPad without any other specific names for it. Most of the bloggers and tech-addicts said it would be iPad HD but its not,eventhough the screen is hd. Now apple is following their footsteps on trending the same name for the gadgets they come up with.

Tablet	Apple iPad 2	Apple iPad (3/HD)	Difference(s)??
Display	9.7 inch screen with LED BacklitLED-backlit IPS TFT, 768 x 1024 pixels,(~132 ppi pixel density)	9.7 inch screen with LED BacklitLED-backlit IPS TFT, 1536 x 2048 pixels,(~264 ppi pixel density)	iPad 3 resolution is 4 times higher than iPad 2

Battery	Standard battery, Li-Po 6930 mAh (25 Wh)	Standard battery Li-Po 42.5 Wh	iPad 3 has a long-standing battery compared to iPad 2

So, you can clearly see the differences between them. iPad 3 is suited up with 4G and has a more boost on web browsing and surfing. Eventhough they look physically the same,the new iPad has a more powerfull specs under the hood. In my opinion, whoever planning to upgrade to iPad 3 from iPad 1 are well worth switching then others who are using iPad 2.

Save Malaysia, Stop LYNAS

2012-02-26T16:55:00.003+08:00

Everybody in facebook and twitter are posting about this Lynas thingy and i really dont know what was it until i found out about the activities this company are planning to do. An Australian company called LYNAS, is building a $230 million plant which process "rare earth" materials. This company built their plant in a location called Gebeng near the town of Kuantan, Pahang.

First of all,rare earth are the mineral sources which are RADIOACTIVE in nature. Meaning that breaking it or processing it would be really dangerous as it gives out radioactive material. This situation has been confronted decades ago by Malaysia where there was also a processing plant under Asian Rare Earth Sdn Bhd(ARE). This occured in Bukit Merah about 30-40 years ago and till now the government has been trying to clean up the waste products. Click here to know more Bukit Merah ARE plant.

Now, the same situation is going to take place again and they are going to dispose the radioactive materials in MALAYSIA! And its really not fair cause the Australian government is expecting the turn-over but not going to pay the "price",if you know what i mean. So,what happens if all of us are exposed to this radioactive material?? Thats the main question going on in our heads. Like it was before,most probably many of us could get leukemia, infant deaths, congenital disease and lead poisoning. This is a really serious issue, and please dont think that if your staying in KL,it doesnt really affect you in any way, cause the particles could spread 50km radius and doesn't stop spreading. The radiation will eventually go down but doesnt stop spreading. Visit http://savemalaysia-stoplynas.blogspot.com/ , http://stoplynas.org/ for more info. And people,please support Save Malaysia,Stop LYNAS(SMSL).

Please sign this petition for your support, TQ!

iPad/iPod/iPhone App : Temple Run

2012-02-21T22:59:00.000+08:00

Today's update is about a popular ipod/ipad game which is Temple Run . Its a really simple game and i dont know what is making it so addictive. The game is about running,you can clearly see in on its title and its due to the monkeys which are chasing your character in the game. The game is just about sliding,choosing the correct direction,timing and eventually,running away from that weird monkeys.

Main Menu

By collecting the coins,you can buy stuff or other characters,even upgrade your features so it could help you in the game. Even by collecting coins,you can gain multiple points and increase your multiplier when your coins increases. Its a really fun game to play. For me,i dont really see what is really making me addictive but i really enjoy it. Seriously sometimes we have to give the character a break,cause he/she been running for thousands of metres and still not tired of it.

Temple Run Store

Stats

And by the way,if im not mistaken(correct me if im wrong),the highest point achieved worldwide is about 2billion plus. So try to beat thatt. Anyways,enjoy the game. You can "like" Temple Run in Facebook and get updates about it here. Get it from AppStore here. Sorry for the low quality pictures.

Foursquare and PickMeUp

2012-02-18T14:42:00.000+08:00

Foursquare

I found out there's another app for iphone and android(i dont know is there any for blackberry) which is quite the same like Foursquare . But this app has its own special feature,its sharing your location in the form of a text message, email, facebook or even a messaging app like "WhatsApp".

This app uses a more easy way of finding others location,not like foursquare, PickMeUp is more pricise on giving out location info and direction to the exact location. Eventhough its mainly about sharing location to people,foursquare has its own UI which is interesting and you can earn points,badges and get to know places nearby with lots of discount.

There are still some bugs that are not fixed in both of the app but foursquare is much better in UI then PickMeUp and foursquare has a better 'social-like' UI. But eventually,both apps are quite usefull for our mobile phones. There wont be any regrets having these kind of apps. Also,have a look here on reviews about both apps

Dividend for Facebook users??

2012-02-07T17:14:00.000+08:00

As i saw the reviews,i found out facebook is making plenty of money from the day it is published..now over $4 billion annual revenue is recorded!!and it could be $10 or $15 billion annual revenue in coming 5 years or so.As i quote from yahoo..

Without me, and the other 844,999,999 people poking, liking and sharing on the site, Facebook would look like a scene from the postapocalyptic movie "The Day After Tomorrow": bleak, desolate and really quite sad. (Or MySpace, if that is easier to imagine.) Facebook surely would never be valued at anything close to $100 billion, which it very well could be in its coming initial public offering.

In the company's S-1 filing, submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission this week, Facebook boasts about its statistics: annually, people "like" one trillion things; 91 billion photos are uploaded; half a billion people use Facebook on mobile phones; and hundreds of millions are annoyingly "poked."
So all this leaves me with a question: Where's my cut? I helped build this thing, too. Facebook laid the foundation of the house and put in the plumbing, but we put up the walls, picked out the furniture, painted and hung photos, and invited everyone over for dinner parties.

I for one would feel more comfortable with Facebook looking through my phonebook, wallet and underwear drawer if I knew I was going to get paid for it.
Jaron Lanier, one of the deepest thinkers on the impacts of technology on society and an "innovator in residence" at the Annenberg School at the University of Southern California, worries about companies like Facebook and Twitter not paying their users while the people lucky enough to work for them become rich from free user-generated content. Mr. Lanier says that as more money flows to those who build these networks, society distorts and divides. Those without the skills needed in this new economy - other than to tweet and post pictures - can fall further behind economically.

"The value comes from the people; none of it is self-created," Mr. Lanier said in an interview. He warns that if society doesn't devise economic solutions to social networks, there could be "serious social blowback."
Sure, $50 might not seem like a lot of money right now, but if Facebook continues to grow as it has in the past, its $4 billion in annual revenue could be in the tens of billions of dollars in a few years. If that happens, I should be expecting a dividend.

So, Mr. Zuckerberg, feel free to message me on Facebook, and I'll give you my address so you can send me a check - unless, as I suspect, you already know where I live.

So,with this kind of statement..i think most of the users of facebook has the rights to get some cash from the CEO..well,we all need cash right?? =D and nowadays,facebook-ing been a daily requirement in life for most of the teens out there.so why not??

HTC Sensation XL and XE

2012-02-04T01:03:00.000+08:00

Today im going to write a review on both Beats earphone featured mobile phones which are quite awesome actually. Its none other than HTC Sensation XE and Sensation XL. Its the only kind which has the beats earphone (excluding HTC Rezound which is available in USA only for Verizon). These are the specifications of both Sensations.

Battery	Standard battery, Li-Ion 1600 mAh	Standard battery, Li-Ion 1730 mAh

First of all,the main difference between both of this phones are the screens. Sensation XL has a bigger screen but the resolution goes to XE because the screen resolution is about 256 ppi compared to XL which has about 196 ppi. Eventhough the resolution is slighty lower than XE,the XL still has a much more vibrant screen than XE. Sensation XL carries its own luggage inside,which is 16gb internal memory without external while the XE has a more flexible feature by presence of 8gb internal and MMC slot. Sensation XL is suited with a smaller capacity battery and it has a single-core 1.5GHz processor making it a negative point compared to higher capacity battery and dual-core processor in XE.

For the pricing,in Malaysia, XL is around RM1700 to RM2000 and XE is around RM100 less than XL. In USA, XL is priced at $500 to $700 and XE is priced at about $50 to $100 cheaper.

So you will still wonder what is the conclusion??If it is for me,Sensation XE will be the best because it is present in 2 different colors, a better processor and the most important for me is the battery life. What will you choose??

Samsung Galaxy S3

2012-01-29T01:00:00.000+08:00

Rumored S3 screen

Leaked informations are saying that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S3 gonna set some new standards out there. Even the Galaxy Note will be low in standards to compete with the S3. Most probably an "iphone killer" i guess. Galaxy Note has indirectly stated that its company can surely make a big screened phone with high resolution, so there are some chances that Galaxy S3 will be suited with a big AMOLED or as the rumors says FOLED screen beating it predecessor and its coming rivals. Other big companies such as HTC and Apple are also suiting up the big screen and high perfomance processor. So,by this coming summer,the world will find out about the Galaxy S3 and its rival iPhone 5. Soon will be updated.


Could it be?
