The perfect water resistant phone to own: Sony Xperia ZR

sony-xperia-zr-mobile-phone-large-3

After the launch of the Xperia Z, Sony has introduced another vibrant variant of Xperia Z series called the Xperia ZR. The Sony Xperia ZR also has amazing water resistant capacities. The ZR can also be termed the mini Z since it is inserted with features identical to the Xperia Z. The ability to design water and dust resistant phones is a boon in today’s time, with the fast paced life and the need to multi task; there are chances of the phone getting lost in a washing machine.

The Xperia ZR is equipped with 4.6 inch LCD screen of High Definition Reality make. The resolution is extremely powerful at 1280 x 720 pixels, the company has introduced world class technology features, and the OptiContrast panel is the latest innovative technology employed in the phone. This impressive technology has brought a closer bond between touch and screen sensor by merging the sensor on the primary frame. Sony Continue Reading →

Samsung Galaxy S 4 FOTA firmware update for LTE version released (in Hong Kong)

image

Samsung on their Hong Kong Facebook page published that they have rolled out their system firmware update for LTE VERSION of GS4.  The upgrade includes the following fixes:

1. The Weather widget performance:  indeed, when you reboot the device or doing other stuff around, you may find the weather widget not responding very quickly and sometimes it showed blank widget too. This update tries to fix this problem. But it seems after the update, I find it has the same problem of slow loading speed when the GS4 was booted.

2. Improvement on touchscreen performance: I am not quite sure what they mean by touchscreen improvement. I couldn’t spot substantial problem or difficulties maneuvering the 5 inch touch screen on the GS4.

3. Improved stability on the camera: Yes the camera was not stable sometimes especially when  you switch between different modes or when you access the camera from a different application such as camscanner. Sometimes it says the camera stops responding and not activated.

image

The updates came 2 weeks after the official launch of GS4. It seems to have solved some minor problems or failure that relate to its touchwiz UI and camera compatibility. However, Samsung is yet to solve the overheating problem surrounding its new GS4.

Samsung Galaxy S IV Flip Cover Light Blue Photo Review

IMG_5213

If you are thinking about getting a Flip Cover for your Galaxy S IV which has a 5 inch 1080p display, you might want to consider buying the official product from Samsung which originally debut along with Galaxy S IV at Radio City, New York on the launch date. The reason why we introduce the Flip Cover to you is that it is made out of very high quality and it is designed to fit the Galaxy S IV. Many may ask what the difference is between official and unofficial flip covers. Our simple reply is “compatibility” and “quality assurance”.

Fake Chinese Samsung Galaxy Note 2 hands on photo review

We reported earlier that one of the mainland Chinese imitation of the South Korean flagship Phablet in 2013. Now we accidentally got one of these very real, 99% real,  pirated model of the Galaxy Note 2.

image

It seems to us that the phone maker doesnt worry about using directly the brand name of Samsung. The Samsung logo is printed on both sides obviously and it looks real from every angle from far away.  No one can easily distinguish between the genuine and the fake product. Except for one thing, the fake one is actually slightly thicker than the originals, which is also barely visible.

image

image

As you can see from the above picture, the Samsung logo is clearly visible.  But if you pay attention,  you will find that the logo at the top of the screen is a bit misplaced and with solid color,  unlike the shiny silver printing on the original one. However, what’s funny about the colour of this note 2 is that it lacks the texture that the original one has. Therefore,  if you look close to it, you will find out this unknown color which us not availavle anywhere.

image

The menu and back button are just like the really one. But if you are aware, you will find that the lights are not concentrated. Instead,  the light seems to come from the home button’s direction.  Therefore, the production quality is not as good as the original one. Well, that’s to be expected. If you pull the S-Pen out, the difference is substantial. You will find the s-pen doesn’t work on the screen with all those floating functions and pointers. Also the S-pen is merely a stylus packaged with the shape of an s-pen.

image

Indeed,  this gadget is as fast as the Note 2 from Samsung, so if you get this fake one, you may not be able to differentiate between this and the original one.

image

We used the antutu benchmark software on this fake product and find out it has the same model name as the original one which is GT-N7100,  equivalent to the 3G version of the Note 2.
