McKay Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 It's currently around ?495. When it reaches ?400, I'll grab one. Personally I'd wait till the S6. This generation of flagships feel like interim devices before next-gen where they'll probably feature those Snapdragon 810's. The Octocore 64-bit processors. Right now the 801 is basically an overclocked 800. The Galaxy Note 3 benches higher than the Xperia Z2 in some tests. Dick Montage 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techbeck Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I am not touching any more of Samsung's devices. Bloated and ugly UI IMO. I am curious how much free space is available and how much the OS/Apps take up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did the same with Note3. They never sell snapdragon 800 based variants here. The Knox malware means bye bye custom ROMS or warranty. Has Samsung peaked and now on their way down?

satysin Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Just had a play with one in Phones4U and it is quite nice. TouchWiz has been changed a lot but it is still pretty crap. I would get one if I could get a Google Play Edition model in the UK. Sadly I cannot and I am far too lazy to bother with a custom ROM. Will stick with the Nexus 5 for now. Best Android experience.

They still make decent phones I think, their Knox rubbish has let them down though with the Note 3 and S5. One of the great things about getting a Samsung phone was you could pretty much count on great developer support for custom ROMS (minus Exynos variants). If the Note 4 has Knox or worse in October, I will be looking for a different phablet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asharae Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Is there much of a difference between the S4 and S5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted April 12, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted April 12, 2014 Is there much of a difference between the S4 and S5?besides more proprietary Samsung features that hardly anyone will use. Not really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionVoltss Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Im confused why after using the ' Shop Charge ' and running the phone down on first day it took from 1pm till 8pm to charge 100% ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
