After using it for a month, here is my short review </p> <p align="left"><strong>NOTE :</strong> I am reviewing my phone, after some hands on experience on similar smartphones like Sony Ericsson Arc and LG Optimus 2X</p> <p align="left"><strong><font size="3">What’s Good :</font></strong></p> <ul> <li> <div align="left">Super AMOLED display is crystal clear. Pictures are ultra sharp and clear. You will love just to see the screen.</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">Gorilla Glass – Put it in your pocket, scratch it, place it on floor, whatever you do, the screen is clean without a single scratch.</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">Ultra fast – 1.2 GHz Dual Core processor on a phone . Previously I didn’t switch to an android phone, because of its performance issue in phones with lower processors <800 MHz. But this is stunningly fast. <br /> <br />1) Scroll a folder with 200 pictures in it – <strong>It is fast</strong> and shows all thumbnails <br />2) Scroll with 250+ contacts – <strong>It is fast</strong> <br />3) Play any 3D game – <strong>It is fast</strong> and doesn’t lag. <br /></div> </li> <li> <div align="left">16 GB built in memory and 1GB RAM (Normally you don’t need a separate SD card)</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">2 MP <strong>front</strong> camera which is very good for self shot and video calls</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">1080p video recording is very good.</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">As Light as feather – Just 116 grams, when you first hold the phone you will say ‘Hey it is very light weight’</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">Touch is very good, touch is very response, accurate and smooth. It feels like liquid.</div> </li> <li> <div align="left">Some good features in Samsung’s Touch Wiz 4.0. <br />1) Shortcut to disable data network <br />2) Lock screen wallpaper <br />3) Customizable home screen and app screen.</div> </li> </ul> <p><strong><font size="3">What’s Not So Good : (I have not mentioned BAD, intentionally)</font></strong></p> <ul> <li>Battery Life : <br />1) If you use it heavily it stands only for 1 Day. <br />2) But on moderate use it stands for 2 Days (Good for a smart phone) <br />3) If you use it just for few calls, it will come even for 4 Days.</li> <li>Head Phone : <br />1) Headphone quality is not bad, but for a smart phone of this price it doesn’t match. <br />2) Also it doesn’t fit properly in my ears.</li> <li>Picture Quality : 8 MP Camera quality is good, but not great. </li> <li>No Camera Key : As we have used a separate camera key in many phones. It looks odd.</li> <li>You need a really big pocket to put this phone – 4.3 inch phone is very difficult to manage, if you travel a lot.</li> <li>Some firmware issues, rarely doesn’t connect to Internet and doesn’t charge up and heats up – But all are fixed just by a restart. Hope Samsung will release a firmware update. </li> </ul> <p><strong><font color="#0000ff">Verdict : Best android phone yet or simply the best smart phone yet. To the envy of iPhone.</font></strong></p> <p><strong>Some Tips :</strong></p> <ul> <li>Don’t charge often, Do a full charge when the battery goes down fully.

Create your tab groups and then select the below option.</p> <ul> <li>Go to <strong>Firefox –> Options (Or Tools –> Options)</strong> </li> <li>In General tab, select ‘<strong>Show my windows and tabs from last time’</strong> in ‘<strong>When Firefox Starts</strong>’ option. </li> <li>Press ‘OK’. </li> </ul> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_JS7N046ZMHk/Tb0FrG1lmCI/AAAAAAAABGw/ySxmGUjTiQQ/s1600-h/2011-05-01-12-28-50%5B9%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="2011-05-01 12 28 50" border="0" alt="2011-05-01 12 28 50" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_JS7N046ZMHk/Tb0FrwPH5QI/AAAAAAAABG0/bUFeMmhvFaA/2011-05-01-12-28-50_thumb%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="470" height="378" /></a></p> </blockquote> <p>Now Close your Firefox without closing any tab and restart Firefox. <br />Your tab groups will be restored. <br />Hope this Helps. <br />Cool….<img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-hotsmile" alt="Hot smile" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_JS7N046ZMHk/Tb0FskddC-I/AAAAAAAABGQ/8YjRWBdzAn8/wlEmoticon-hotsmile%5B2%5D.png?imgmax=800" /></p> Karthik Chandrarajhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10274520141036718659noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-230842735819274721.post-58444555925872773352011-04-14T15:40:00.001+05:302012-02-04T14:34:53.235+05:30AMD - Best PC for Rs.50,000–Gaming PC– 2011 (Deprecated)<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
