Q. Hi... I want to buy a smart phone but I'm confused between Galaxy SII and Google Nexus Prime. I've seen tech specs of both the phones and I'm impressed by both but I can't buy two smart phones you see. So please tell me which would be the better phone among both.
And I've also heard that Samsung is about to release Galaxy SIII soon. So should I wait for some time till SIII gets released or should I buy a phone right now???
If you know the release date of Galaxy SIII then please let me know...
Thanks...
A. For this question, it depends completely on how bad and more importantly how soon you need a phone. The Samsung Galaxy SIII is rumored to sport 2GB of ram instead of 1GB, a 12 megapixel camera with a better lens of course, front facing camera better than the current version, a Super Amoled Plus HD display packing over 387 ppi, a Samsung 4412 chip set-which by the way is a quad core processor- that clocks at 2.0 GHZ, a 4.65 edge to edge display, LTE call quality and download speeds and of course running on android 4.0 Ice Cream. These are just a few specs. The Samsung Galaxy SIII will be announced at the CES conference in February next year, 2012. I have also heard that if they dont chose a quad-core chip set, they may just run a dual core 1.8GHZ Samsung exynos processor. I personally have chosen to wait for the Samsung galaxy SIII.I do want a new phone. But the cost of jumping or suspending contracts and trying to keep up with the latest cell phone is a luxury many cannot afford. My contract expires on the eve of the supposed realese date of this phone, so Im geeked! If you want the best, then just wait for it. But it will be again the best android phone on the market when it releases.
You have to wonder what platform they trying to lay out with a quad-core phone? The only reason we need dual core chipset phones right now are for capturing 1080p video. THATS IT!. Sure, we can surf, process and download info alot quicker than before, but its not generally needed. The additional cores and ram may serve for more demanding options and features in a phone like shooting 60 fps instead of 30fps which are in current dual core phones right now, creating a more media-like friendly phone or trying to fully incorporate your phone into your computer and various computer programs on your computer-all while your phone acts like a phone. The play field is open. But just like a car, with more power comes more demand for fuel or better fuel engineering. Im hoping that power management will be heavily revised in a phone that has 4 chipsets while operating on a LTE network. If the battery life on this upcoming quad core chipset phone acts anything like the available HTC dual core cell phones, its main audience will be hard core sammy fans. Carrying around a phone that dies 3hours just in standby mode is depressing. But Samsung does there homework pretty darn well.
Dude, just wait. Its so worth it
Which is better, the iPhone 4S or Samsung Galaxy S3? (ease of usability, graphics, functions)?
Q. I have both these phones in my possession, and am attempting to decide between the two. The iPhone 4S has been used for 1 year, while the S3 is (more or less) brand new.
A. hmmm.. this one is a hard one... okay, The Apple iPhone 4s and the Samsung galaxy both have their pro's and con's, to be honest i am a huge apple fan, i think thats like one of the most wonderfull products in the market, no one can deny that the iPhone changed the smartphones from how they look and are used, but thats not ur question, so lets jump to ur question,
9 Reasons That make the Apple iPhone 4s better
LENS
*Appreciably wider aperture
DISPLAY
*Two pixels share one subpixel
*A thing higher pixel density326ppi
MEMORY
*Substantially more internal storage64GB
PHYSICAL
*Vastly less body volume
*Sizably narrower
*Clearly shorter
OS
*Direct updates by OS vendor
CONNECTIVITY
*Noticeably faster uploads

Now its up to you, indeed the Samsung Galaxy S3 is a better phone but no matter what, im still very comfortable with my iPhone 4s, so imma stick to it.
Unlocked AT&T Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile?
Q. Hi, I have an unlocked At&t Samsung Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile, and I noticed that as I travel around, my status bar jumps from 4g/4g lte to an "E" icon, which from what I understand is 2G speeds. I know that I'll never get 4g "all the time", but right now it's pretty 50/50. So my question is... if I purchased a new T-Mobile phone, would I get more consistant 4g speeds, and less of the "e" icon? I read that they use different bands, so that is why I ask. Thank you, and please explain your answer, as I am not all that familiar with icons and bands.
A. Hi, I have an unlocked At&t Samsung Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile, and I noticed that as I travel around, my status bar jumps from 4g/4g lte to an "E" icon, which from what I understand is 2G speeds. I know that I'll never get 4g "all the time", but right now it's pretty 50/50. So my question is... if I purchased a new T-Mobile phone, would I get more consistant 4g speeds, and less of the "e" icon?
-------------- yes, correct.
Status symbols.... E means EDGE, 2G data. UMTS is 3G data, denoted by either a U or G on old phones, and 3G on a phone on modern phones. 4G comes in 2 forms. HSPA and LTE. HSPA, also known has fake 4G, uses 3G Technology to push a faster frequency "band". The old ITRU definition of a "g" change is when a company increases data speed 10x faster on newer technolgoy. Then in Spring 2011, ITRU changed their minds. Now only 10x faster speeds on same old technology classifies a "g" change... this is how in spring 2011, Sprint ATT and TMobile all magically became 4G overnight... seriously no joke... the new speed was called HSPA (high speed packet access). Before the definition change, HSPA was, before the change, called 3G+ or 3.5G or G+ on the phone. It then became 4G. Only Verizon stayed true to the old ITRU definition, which was faster speed on newer technology. Rather than investing in HSPA, they invested in this new Japanese technology called Long Term Evolution or LTE, which was 10X faster than HSPA and 100x faster than 3G. This is why, in 2013 now, Verizon is 95% 4G LTE, while Sprint and ATT and Tmobile is.. well.. pathetic... , still in the 30%s
the reason ATT/Straight Talk and any other GSM phone wont work consistently on Tmobile 3G and 4G HSPA is becuase of Tmobile itself. Not the phone. Tmobile 3G (and therefore 4G HSPA too from the above ITRU definition--remember, same technology just faster speed) uses frequency bands 2100 Mhz and 1700 Mhz ONLY.. just these 2 bands.. ATT and other GSM carriers of Planet earth are normally quad-band (4-band), using 850, 900, 1900, and 2100 MHz for 3G (and therefore 4G HSPA too).. Only tmobile is still, in 2013, still, omfg, still dual-band for 3G/4G HSPA... and why they suck and beggin for someone to buy them. Ok, anywho... Notice that only 2100Mhz match. ATT phones and GSM phones from other carriers do not have a 1700Mhz radio reciever. Only tmobile phones have that.
So.......... your 3G (and therefore 4G HSPA too) will be spotty depending on the tmobile cell tower in your area. Remember, a tmobile tower may give off 2100 Mhz AND 1700 MHZ or just 1700 or just 2100... if your in an area of a tower that only gives off 1700, then you are screwed.... you ill not have 4G HSPA... you will not have 3G... your phone will default to 2G... the big... fat... E....... LMAO!!! But, if your in an area where there is 2100 MHz, then you'll get 4G HSPA....
So..... if you get a true, honest to god, branded Tmobile phone... will you get constent 4g HSPA?
---------- YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why????
--------- cause true Tmobile phones have BOTH the 2100 and 1700 radios... therefore, no matter what the tmobile tower gives off, you will have constent 4G HSPA.... the only time you wont get 4G HSPA is when you near a tower that doesnt give off 2100 or 1700... or your in an outage... or dead.. lmao
