[NEWS] iPhone 4S

The news that everyone has been waiting for has arrived!

and frankly, we're a little disappointed...

Though we appreciate the processor n RAM n camera upgrade, but Apple should have gone all the way and come up with the iPhone 5 with the rumored bigger n better screens.

The iPhone 4S has great specs! dont get me wrong! but its similar to Samsung Galaxy S II. dont ya think?
and the SGS2 came out in May! so Apple had and extra 5 months to come up with something better than SGS2 and it even fails at doing that.

as the small screen (3.5") is really not comparable to SGS2's 4.3" SuperAMOLEDplus screen or HTC Sensation XE's 4.3" S-LCD screen..

Well, at least u can use ur iPhone 4 casings on ur new iPhone 4S! saves u abit of money, huh?

Here's a comparison of the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S

Expect the iPhone 4S to break ur bank, as previous iPhones have done everytime they were launched.
But remember to compare it with other top-of-the line Android smartphones if u're thinking of getting a new iOS, as the SGS2 is now only RM1850 and the HTC Sensation XE is expected to cost less than RM2100 as well

Cons: Blackberry Internet Service(BIS) is required to enjoy phone's features. Overpriced for its meager specs. Small screen at 2.44"

  

My say: Blackberry fans will love it, non-Blackberry fans will be curious why Blackberry even have fans. Sorry to say, I am not a Blackberry fan because i think for its meager specs, it is wayyy too overpriced. and u also cant use this phone to the fullest UNLESS u subscribe to BIS/BBM.

After a few days of using this phone, u automatically feel like an important person. constantly removing the phone from the pouch to check on ur emails and other notifications. Or is it just me..? haha

This phone is not for everyone. However, if you are a serious e-mail junkie and need push email and use BBM frequently, then this phone is ThePhoneForYou!

Latest OS for the Galaxy Ace is Gingerbread 2.3.4!

Pros: 3.5" TFT Screen! Standard connectivity available - GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth. smooth interface, 5mpx camera with LED flash! Gingerbread update 2.3.4 now available as seen in picture above! 800MHz CPU, hot-swappable Micro SD card slot(no need to switch off phone and remove battery), CHEAP!

 

Cons: poor video recording(only 15fps), no dedicated camera key, does not support Adobe Flash, TFT screen not as nice as SLCD, no front-facing camera.

  

My say: The best budget droid, in my opinion now has a Gingerbread update! What you get with the new Gingerbread update as compared to the previous Froyo OS on the phone

• improved battery life 
• ability to transfer most apps to SD

Its not a lot of improvement/changes but at least its something..and u know Samsung's doing something to ensure that your phone is up-to-date. 

One of the best droids under RM900, it has all the standard connectivity available. It also looks like the iPhone 4 abit, and its specs are good for its price. If you are a newbie to Android, then this phone is definitely ThePhoneForYou!

Competition: Huawei Ideos X5

[PHONE] Blackberry Bold Touch 9900 & Torch 9810

at last, for all you Blackberry users out there, u can rejoice with the official arrival of 2 brand new Blackberry phones. both phones are expected to reach our shores this THURSDAY 25th August 2011!

Blackberry Bold Touch 9900
RM2080 Original Brighstar
18 months warranty

Blackberry Torch 9810
RM1950 Original Brighstar
18 months warranty

Both phones come preloaded with the brand spanking new Blackberry OS7!
bear in mind, ALL previous models are unable to support this brand new OS7, so if you just bought a BB Bold 3 9780 or Torch 9800, u are kinda stuck forever on BB OS6... sorry...

However, neither of these phones come cheap(as BB phones are forever overpriced in my opinion..) 

and be sure to check that the BB u are intending to buy is ORIGINAL and distributed by BRIGHSTAR or any other telco (maxis, celcom, digi, umobile)

Brighstar warranty for blackberry is 18 months.

BB Bold 3 is still RM1350-1450


BB Torch 9800 is RM1650...i told u BBs are overpriced. =P

[APP] Lookout Mobile Security

Hello Smartphone users!

A smartphone is no longer just a phone. anything you can do on your computer or your laptop, you can do on your smartphone..well..almost everything..

and just like your pc or laptop, it is susceptible to various viruses and malware(malicious software) as mentioned in my previous post. (read HERE)

so how do you protect your phone from getting infected and getting all screwed up?

u either dont use your smartphone for any sort of internet browsing or downloading and avoid all risks altogether, OR,
you could take preventive measures and download n install a trusted AntiVirus app for phones like Lookout Mobile!

App official website -> https://www.mylookout.com/
App Market Download Link -> HERE

Unlike other antivirus apps which does the bare minimum (only scan for viruses), Lookout Mobile gives you some extra features!

The free version gives u access to 3 features. The premium version will have 4 extra features

1. Security Protection - Scans all applications and files for viruses
2. Backup and Restore - Backup personal data(contacts, pictures and call logs) to ur online account
3. Device Locator - Locate your missing phone via GPS tracking and alarm blaring

So how does the Device Locator work? whenever u've lost or missplaced ur phone, get online and login to their website >HERE< and simply go to the "Missing Device" tab and press "Locate" or "Scream". As long as your phone is switched On, the GPS will switch itself On and get u the device location and send it to u there and then using Google Maps. They will also immediately send u an email of the location of your phone to the email address you registered with as they record every action you have taken using this app.

The email that they sent to me when I tested the Locate function. Kinda accurate! =D

When u open the app in ur smartphone, the "Backup" function will only backup ur contacts. To backup ur pictures and call logs, u'll have to do it by logging in to their website.

The added features in the Premium(paid) version of the app includes these functions

1. Lock - remotely lock ur phone so that it cannot be accessed by other people other than urself
2. Wipe - if u think ur phone is gone for good, wipe all the data from ur phone.

However, if u are a frequent ROM flasher and u like to flash custom roms and mods to ur phone, I recommend u to "clear data" and uninstall this app first before flashing. Because, in my experience of flashing my (now lost/stolen) Samsung Galaxy S, this app intefered with my rom flashing and caused my phone to bootloop. Just remember to reinstall the app after u've finished flashing and it should be A-OK! =D

Highly recommended app for safety and security!
=D
