Old guy Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Btw performance wise my htc one vs iPad Air...guess which lags less?:winky:
Detonator Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 I'm not buying any phone. I've got Nexus 5 and IT IS AWESOME cool. imo, Z2 > N5 or any other phone.
Old guy Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 cool. imo, Z2 > N5 or any other phone. Depends man Performance wise nexus will still beat it Battery wise it cool and camera is awesome Not to mention price is different and z2 is much newer
Sachin=GOD Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 cool. imo, Z2 > N5 or any other phone. Z2 is the latest one so it is better in certain aspects. Also, its a flagship device so its got a much better camera etc while N5 cost much less so they had to compromise at some level. But performance wise I don't think N5 is any less than Z2 or M8 or S5 etc.
Old guy Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 S=G or Sabby doods' date=' don't buy any phone yet. I think every company will release a UHD flagship next year. G3 is very premature.[/quote'] Deto...don't fall for qhd...it's a fad I am eyeing next moto flagship and I know specs wise it will me average but that is not what I am looking for anymore as performance wise anything from time of nexus 4 is good on android as software is getting more lighter every 6 months Honestly my phone is quicker now than it was when I bought it year ago and now I am getting very good price for it so thinking of selling it From this point on specs do not matter which is good thing
Detonator Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 What about sony z2 vs iphone ? I think it's fight between monster truck and desi Indian truck from 19 50 :giggle: Z2 imo, made android look awesome at it's best. Sony must have the crappiest marketing division ever. It shld be leading the segment. it pains me when some morons choosing S5 (exynos version which is worser than karbonn) over Z2. Samsung pays the top review sites I guess.

Moto's turnaround has been fantastic. The successor to Moto X will be a device to look out for - X had many promising features but being the first one, it wasn't refined. Next one should be good. Tell that to the manufacturers who are hellbent on increasing the size with every successive device or increasing megapixels in camera or RAM etc.

You go to any big electronics shop in India and the salesmen will be doing "Samsung Samsung Samsung" and will always tell you to buy Samsung over HTC/Sony/LG etc - they must get a hefty commission. When I went to buy N5 the guy told me that it is not a good phone and its not worth the money - I was like :wall: :wall:

Sony's interface has the least bloatware compared to touchwiz or sense. I have SP (running on 4.3 though) and it's on par with Nexus 4 and I m yet to get a lag. ofcourse Nexus 4 is faster and has a better camera. If you have a PS3 or sony smart TV's, sony phones are the ones to go. Screen mirroring and playing games with the PS3 controller is really cool.

I have Iron man, which is 1GB but the graphics are nintendo 64 level.
StriKe Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Google is taking over everything. They have taken over songza too. Next thing you know they will know when we take a dump or something. One reason I hate android is that for every little app' date=' why the heck do you need access to EVERYTHING?[/quote'] They categorize permission into single access, click on any permission while installing a application and you will know what it can do. For example: If a application requests to read your events from calender, it will have both write/edit permission too. Some newbie devs don't specific access while developing apps since during app development all access are granted in general. ~expert android dev velu can share some info :nice: ~ Make sure you download from well known application providers and developers, they are so many fake app in the market. Why are you comparing entry/mid level android mobile with premium Apple product? N5 are selling more than iPhone 5S at the moment I have seen 10 N5 compared to 1 5S so far. Same here after i see a samsung android mobile, i just want to flash custom rom. Ex: slimkat/cyanogen mod But touchwiz has certain features which are useful so this where xposed framework is awesome to work with :two_thumbs_up: :yay: 1 iPhone 5s sells for every 10 N5/M8/G3

Xposed module brings all features of custom rom into touchwiz samsung device, all you need is root access. yes i have heard a lot about xposed but never got chance to root because i am planning to sell my device soon :hmmm: i thought its nexus only
StriKe Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 yes i have heard a lot about xposed but never got chance to root because i am planning to sell my device soon :hmmm: i thought its nexus only Though i am using slimkat rom but Exposed framework is really useful :nice: Xposed was mainly developed for MTK Chipset based mobile where source code/drivers weren't released for devs to develop custom roms. So using Xpose framework + root on a MTK device, users can instal required custom rom features desperately and later releases Xposed started to support all devices
