Into The Samsung company has two very good smartphone on the market-phablet: Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 2 . The difference is immediately evident is the screen: the first, in fact, has a diplay AMOLED display with full HD resolution and is 5 inches, the second one has a 5.5-inch HD AMOLED display. Many people wonder if the magnitude of Note 2 is not excessive, but this is a feature that may or may not, depending on personal tastes.

Into The Samsung Galaxy S4 has a Quad-Core 1.9 GHz Snapdragon 600, a RAM of 2 GB, 16 to 64 GB of memory, expandable up to 64 GB with a microSD removable battery is 2600 mAh, has support 4G LTE and Wi-Fi 802.11 ac. The operating system is A ndroid 2.2.2.

It would seem however that there are large differences between the two hardware phablet and that if on some characteristics wins S4, on the other notes 2.

G vs Optimus Note 2: software customizations by comparing ... - HDblog (Blog)

There is much talk often of software customizations, modifications that manufacturers make to Android and functionality that are implemented by companies within their own smartphones and tablets with Google Mobile system. Samsung and LG are definitely together with HTC, manufacturers that most smartphones customize not only adding more programs, but completely changing the home creating a system approach to the UI definitely very different from the Nexus range and, in some respects, better and more full of options. Today we offer a challenge to the whole Korean focuses on their differences customization Optimus G and Notes 2. The contamination of aesthetic customization of the two producers can be seen clearly but both devices are able to have their own identity very specific and though many will know the Touch Wiz, customizing LG is no exception and in fact, we all seemed even better structured, with very nice options.

Although

Notes 2 and Optimus G can be considered as two very different products, at the hardware level are really very similar with almost the same power even if the processor is changed in favor of a Snapdragon S4 Pro which is slightly more dell’Exynos Samsung’s new 1.6GHz.

Furthermore, if on the one hand the Notes 2 S-Pen suite has a really well done and very interesting, on the other Optimus G responds with the option Quick Memo that you see below, very effective and very immediate to use. We are lovers of Note 2, but do not deny that the use of the S-Pen we do is very limited and often use it for notes and little else. The solution LG, though more limited, it is nonetheless appreciated and immediate access (more than 2 notes) simply by pressing the volume buttons together and therefore able to offer a valuable management notes.

Clearly Optimus G does not have a Wacom panel and for those who choose Notes 2 because of the handwriting features S-Pen, the differences in terms of accuracy in writing and drawing are obviously significant and promote the Samsung also on the software side and interaction with all the UI that provides special in many programs when used with the S-Pen.

Into

Optimus G also offers greater freedom of customization with a number of preset themes (would have been charged even the possibility of putting the standard Android theme as it happens with Huawei) and more options for the portion of the lock screen for watches selection.

In contrast the 2 notes have the option, always release from the menu, to show notifications lost and now simply passing a hand over the proximity sensor and allows you to launch the camera with a rotation of the smartphone while clicking the screen. Small differences that are not macroscopic but showing that on the one hand LG has pushed more about customizing the user trying to find all the tools to make it in his own image and likeness smartphone, Samsung has chosen the path on the other advanced controls, motion control, voice interaction with tilt and with S-Voice that improve esprienza of use everyday.

These additional differences that we have not addressed in the video. We close by saying that the management of multitasking via multiwindows is now one of the distinctive features of Samsung that, even in the presence of QSlide of LG with popup windows , can not be traveled by other competitors.

Two similar customizations so that they differ in many respects, but that show how LG has matured, grown and has implemented functional and aesthetic choices still appreciable. We’ll see how it will evolve customization made in Korea and the fight between Samsung and LG whereas their LG seems to have finally found the right formula to worry their rivals. For those who do not find enjoyable these interfaces, the beautiful Sense 5.0 HTC Nexus One or the alternatives are more concrete (but keep an eye Huawei).

Samsung record profits thanks to the Galaxy S3 and Notes 2, 42% - Tech Economy

Samsung registers new accounts record: the first quarter ended with the boom in sales of smartphones Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2, launched in 2012, able to record numbers despite the competition of the iPhone 5. The South Korean giant marks net profits of 7.15 trillion won (6.44 billion dollars) in January-March, up 42% on 5050000000000 12 months ago. Revenues rose to 52.87 trillion (+16.8%) and operating earnings 8780000000000 (+54.35%), in line with estimates published earlier this month.

The South Korean group earn more points in the battle for the conquest of the rich smartphone market, putting more and more pressure on Apple after Steve Jobs who in recent days has disclosed its not really flattering quarterly results. The net profit of the mobile industry has jumped by 56% to 6.51 trillion won, or about three-quarters of the total profits of the conglomerate. In the first quarter, the delivery of smartphones has risen to 69.4 million pieces, against the already remarkable figure of 63 million achieved by Samsung in the last three months of 2012, according to calculations by the research firm, Strategic Analysis. During the same period, the share of Apple has eroded, rising to 37.4, from 47.8 million pieces. The global market share has been narrowed down to 33.1% (from 33.9%) in the case of South Koreans, while it dropped to 17.9% from the previous 22%, in the case of the American group.

The Galaxy line has so far allowed the sale of more than 100 million units worldwide, and the S4, with the spread expected (already on Saturday for example in the U.S.) through 327 mobile operators in 155 different countries, is expected to generate an operating profit of about 10,000 billion won, according to projections developed by Lig Investment & Securities. Not only that, it is possible that the new smartphone will catalyze even more interest in the markets in spite of an economic situation still uncertain. Samsung is convinced: the “ deliveries will be far greater ” the Galaxy S3.

Into Samsung always points stronger on the size maxi. If the diagonal of the display of the Galaxy Note 2, 5.5 “, it is rather generous, the Mega Screen, 6.3″, recently presented, may also appear exaggerated. The Korean is increasingly convinced that from the users there is a need to have a big screen that can deliver a half-way between the smartphone and the tablet. The 6.3 Mega has partly displaced critics and audiences, some rumor, spread in recent months, stated as fact the output of a phablet 6.3 “initially identified as the Galaxy Note 3.

Into Compare the Mega 6.3 and the Galaxy Note 2 is therefore something rather obvious: Ubergizmo had fun putting them facing each other. The Note 2 is a product that has gained acclaim from critics and audiences, repeat the success of the family Notes will not be so simple.

Screen

Room
Both notes that the 2 Mega feature an 8 megapixel rear camera and 1.9 megapixel front-facing unit.

Battery and sizes
The Mega has a 3,200 mAh battery sizes, generous, are as follows: 167.6 x 88 x 8mm, 199 grams of weight, the Notes 2 has a 3,100 mAh battery, size: 151.1 mm x 80.5 mm x 9.4 mm and 183 grams of weight.

Conclusion

The observations made by Ubergizmo are broadly shared. The form factor of the Mega follows the lines of the Galaxy S4, but the dimensions are objectively far too generous to allow easy daily use, ergonomics is in fact compromised the screen 6.3. “Technically, the Mega does not have a powerful processor – is even lower than the Note 2 – Samsung has created this phablet to ensure you maximum comfort in all applications configured in the field of productivity: e-mail, web browsing, photos. The Korean once again on strong tip generously sized convincing that the audience is eager to have an all-in-one device that can ensure user experience almost the same level as that of the tablet.
