My Review On Samsung Galaxy S2!

Assalamualaikum w.b.t.

Akhirnya, sudah sampai waktunya saya bercerita serba sedikit tentang Samsung Galaxy S2 ini. Secara keseluruhannya, ia memang smartphone yang menakjubkan.

Spesifikasi

Prosesor berkuasa dual-core berkelajuan 1.2Ghz memang pantas. Setakat penggunaan saya selama ini, tak pernah jammed pun. Gerakan touch screen pun lancar, tak tersekat-sekat. Cuma bila duduk jauh dari bandar ni, memang ada masalah sikit dari segi penerimaan signal Celcom. Jadi bila nak melayari internet/facebook, kena tunggu loading page lama sikit. Tapi bila bermain game, amat lancar dan memuaskan.

Skrin Super AMOLED Plus memberikan paparan gambar yang sangaaaat cantik! Walau pun di bawah terik matahari, masih boleh melihat tulisan dan gambar dengan jelas. Personally, I think this is the most innovative feature that does not exist in other smartphone. Bila main game... cooOOL!

Biasanya, handphone touchscreen ni ada masalah permukaan skrinnya yang menjadi comot akibat kena gores/gesek/tenyeh dengan jari kita. Tapi dengan kehadiran Gorilla Glass pada Samsung Galaxy S2, masalah ini tiada lagi. Sentiasa bersih dan tidak comot lagi. Ia juga kononnya menambahkan kekebalan permukaan skrin daripada pecah atau calar.

Dari segi RAM dan storage, setakat ni saya tak banyak download sangat. Lagi pun, saya dapati saiz aplikasi Android kebanyakannya sekitar 50 kb - 3 Mb. Sangat kecil.

Kamera 

Jika anda menyukai kamera dengan resolusi yang besar dan jelas, saya yakin 8MP adalah yang terbaik di antara kamera-kamera smartphone yang lain. Gambar.. macam real, tapi hanya mampu tangkap gambar statik. Kalo kita bergerak sikit, gambar jadi blur.

Sistem Operasi (Operating System --- Android)

Jika iPhone terkenal dengan iOS, maka Samsung Galaxy S2 pula hebat muncul dengan sistem terkini Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). Apa yang best dengan sistem Android ni? Well... you can change anything that you like. Contohnya, daripada ini.....

...kepada ini...

Hebak mung. Hehe. Tapi memang anda boleh menukar antara muka Android mengikut kemahuan anda. Memang syok!

Kepada blogger, jangan risau. Anda boleh post artikel ke dalam blog anda melalui smartphone Android ini. Yap, kena la download aplikasi Android yang berkaitan.

Apa Yang Tak Best?

Kerana skrin besar, maka agak sukar menjawab panggilan. Tapi saya selesaikan dengan penggunaan Bluetooth Headset. Ia juga sangat nipis, jadi kena sentiasa berhati-hati bila mengendalikan. Kang terjatuh, melayang duit.. Tapi, boleh juga diatasi dengan membeli casing tutup depan belakang yang boleh didapati semurah RM20! GPS..? Nampaknya, belum ada lagi aplikasi Android percuma yang membenarkan penggunaan street-by-street view. Tapi, masih boleh track laluan destinasi seperti dalam Google Maps. Bateri berkuasa 1650mAh boleh bertahan separuh hari, mungkin sebab saya ada banyak aplikasi background.

Keseluruhan

Worth buying it. If you think of buying it now, hold on till September. Who knows that the price might drop. But yes.. new more featured smartphone will come out by then.

Thank you for reading. ;-)

Harry Potter 3D di Kuala Selangor..

Assalamualaikum.

Malam tadi, ntah kemaruk ke hape, kami gi jalan di Kuala Selangor untuk nengok cerita Harry Potter terbaru. Hajat hati sekadar nak mengikuti perkembangan cerita yang aku minat ni, tapi bak orang ngantuk disorongkan bantal, ceritanya ditayangkan dalam pawagam 3D!

So, my comment.. losing RM17 for such an experience is still worthy. Happy to see it. Very nice ending, although still a lot of twist events but it is told..

Cukuplah..

Assalamualaikum..

Bila aku terkenang-kenang selama hidupku ini, aku dapati tiada sesuatu yang pasti dalam percaturan kehidupan ini. Tiada sesuatu yang dapat aku sandarkan keyakinan jitu.. melainkan Allah.

Bila kita sangkakan kita lebih hebat daripada si anu, kita merasakan alangkah bertuahnya kita tidak menjadi sepertinya. Namun, hidup ini tidak diam-diam sahaja. Bila datangnya ujian dan cubaan ke atas diri kita, barulah kita terasa betapa kerdilnya diri ini sehingga dirasakan tidak layak langsung untuk bekerja di sini. Sekali pun kita tidak pernah memperlekehkan sesiapa, namun bila namanya manusia, kita tak lari daripada diperlekehkan oleh orang lain. Ada sahaja kata-kata tohmahan yang tajam yang tak dapat kita elakkan.. Itulah kehidupan manusia..

Bila kita sangkakan perbuatan baik kita pasti akan dihargai orang, namun masih ramai juga yang tidak menyenangi diri kita. Tidaklah bermakna kita berbuat baik, maka orang pun akan berbuat baik sama. Itulah manusia.. tak semuanya sama. Jika kita sangkakan semua orang baik, maka kita dah tersalah anggapan sebenarnya. Realitinya.. akan pasti ada yang baik dengan kita, tapi pasti juga ada yang tidak senang dengan kita.

Kekadang hidup ini memang tidak adil, tapi sebenarnya kita tidak mengetahui sejauh mana sangkaan ketidakadilan itu.. Orang berfikir bahawa kerja doktor mudah dan lumayan, namun orang tidak mengetahui betapa tertekannya perasaan dan besarnya pengorbanan yang diberikan kepada kerjaya ini. Mungkin orang tidak sampai terfikirkan kenapa harus menyesali menerima kerja dengan gaji besar sebegini, namun selalu sahaja aku terfikirkan betapa menyesalnya mengambil bidang yang penuh dengan risiko dan selalu menjadi mangsa.. apalah ertinya wang, jika tiada masa untuk diluangkan.. apalah ertinya kereta besar, jika hanya berulang-alik daripada tempat kerja dan rumah..

Jadi.. hidup tidak adil cumalah sangkaan kita. Namun, hanya saja kita mensyukuri sudah dengan apa yang kita miliki, pasti... kita akan merasakan kecukupan dalam hidup.

Biarlah orang berdengki dengan kita.. biarlah orang tidak menyenangi kita.. tapi... kita anggapkanlah usaha dan perbuatan baik kita itu untuk Allah dan harapkan balasan baik hanya dari Allah sahaja..

Cukuplah Allah yang balas budi pekertiku..
Cukuplah Allah sahaja yang berikan rezeki buatku..
Cukuplah Allah sahaja yang mengetahui kejujuranku..

Cukuplah...

Escort Sultan Selangor..

Assalamualaikum. Hari ni, pada saat ini, aku sedang bertugas mengiringi Sultan Selangor menziarahi Makam DiRaja di Bukit Melawati Kuala Selangor..

Turut kelihatan, Menteri Besar Selangor berpakaian baju melayu sedang berdiri di hadapan pintu Makam buat menyambut kehadiran Tuanku, bersama-sama beberapa orang kenamaan yang lain.

Harap-harapnya takde apa-apa yang berlaku.

Dalam cuak menunggu.. rasa bosan gak.

Nasib baik ada SGS2. Boleh gak surf internet, tangkap gambar.. Dan upload post dalam blog.

The First Time Is Always Expensive..

Assalamualaikum..

While being the first, some of us do anticipated to be one. However, for experience, getting the first experience is always expensive.. and it is more expensive when you've jump into it without knowledge and preparation.

When I had my first car.. it is never in my mind that the car might broke at the roadside in the middle of the night. Thinking of such event to occur, I am only believe that it is just in the TV. But, when it comes, it come and you've got to face it defenceless.. I still believed that I was getting cheated by the mechanic.

Now.. my next big thing would be in property. Uhuhuhu... I am scared. And I just thought that I got spinned again. Argh! Well... my first experience is always expensive financially..

*I will make some review on SGS2 later. ;-)

Bila Dapat Smartphone Baru..

Assalamualaikum.

"Apa nak buat yek?"

Itulah yang aku fikir apabila kali pertama dapat Samsung Galaxy S2 ni. Bila dapat pegang kotak hitam tu, terasa seronoknya hati ni. Bila dah buka kesemua barang-barang di dalamnya, baru terfikir.. apa yang patut aku buat kali pertama buka smartphone ni?

So, my advise... charge the battery till full before any use.

Excited punya pasal, aku pun tanya pakcik Google dulu apa nak buat kali pertama buka kotak ni. So, banyak info yang syorkan supaya mengecas bateri dulu sehingga penuh. Ada juga komen-komen pengguna yang hairan kenapa smartphone mereka cepat habis bateri (dalam Forum). Tak sampai 6-8 jam dah kong. Rupa-rupanya diorang tak cas bateri dulu masa mula-mula dapat smartphone..

Aku pun cas la lama-lama.. mula cas dari pukul 10 malam. Tunggu punya tunggu, ambik masa 4 jam gak nak tunggu sampai penuh baterinya.

Then, what to do?

Daftar dengan Google account.

Then, ... tido le. Dah pukul 2 pagi dol. Hehe.. Tapi, yang penting, cuba explore applications yang dah sedia ada dalam Samsung Galaxy S2. Antara yang sempat saya explore..

...Voice Talk!
Aplikasi ni sangat berguna apabila anda mahu menghantar mesej (SMS) ketika sedang membawa kenderaan. Cukup hanya dengan menekan sekali pada ikon applikasi ini, dan sebut "Hi Galaxy". Seterusnya anda akan diberikan arahan-arahan bersuara akan apa yang anda mahu taip, dan kepada siapa anda mahu hantar.. tanpa sentuh smartphone anda. Sangat berguna, dan menjadikan pemanduan anda lebih selamat. Tapi.. app ni hanya faham bahasa English ye. Sorry for that.

..dan ada lagi. Cukupla dulu buat masa ni, mungkin saya akan ceritakan tentang kelebihan Android dan Market plak pada masa akan datang.

Berblog di mana sahaja..

Assalamualaikum.

Terima kasih kerana sudi membaca.

Hari ni, saya sedang mencuna hantar post dalam blog daripada Samsung Galaxy S2.

Nampaknya berjaya..

Gheheee..

Getting My First Smartphone....

Assalamualaikum. Thanks for reading..

I am really happy... dreams do come true. It really does..

The Story..
After years of waiting and keeping my dream inside my chest, it is finally come into reality. It is my very nature that I love technology. I love desktop and computers years ago, that I used my study loan money to buy one. Quite a handsome amount of money leak out. Around RM2500.. Ghehehe.. Sorry, PTPTN.

But, then, I got job. And, I got a decent amount of money (Yap, I paid back my PTPTN, okey!).Yea.. it is so irresistible every time I walk down to computer shop. But not so fast, I have to 'donate' my desktop to my brother & sisters at home. It is when my long craving for a laptop became so unbearable. After few months of saving, I managed to buy 15" Dell Studio laptop.. via online. After heart-pounding waiting of 2 weeks, then I received my order box at my office (or should I say.. hospital's ward!). Again.. another RM3500 gone. Just like that.

"Well.. quite some big chunk of money flew away, don't you think?"

Not really.. I am feeling great spending those money. Hehe. Not because of the spending, but because of having those awesome technology at my hand. At first, I thought I am done with technology. I thought my life has complete, but I was wrong..

Day by day, I keep seeing people bringing technology with them everywhere and everytime. And, what they brought is not just old-fashioned gadget, but hey.. it is SMARTPHONE! Even though I had high-end laptop in my house, but I can't put it inside my pocket. And, I keep seeing people showing off their... iPhone.. Nokia N8.. Sony Xperia.. iPhone 3G.. then, HTC Desire...

Argh...!!! How to resist such temptation!

Again, I failed voluntarily.. Succumb to those trend, I started looking out for my own smartphone. And, started saving up some money.. I search, and search, and research... finally, my heart felled in love with Samsung Galaxy S2. At that time around, it has not arrived in Malaysia. But already launched in Korea, so I wait. Keep those money, and wait..

When it did arrived on 22th July, Maxis took the privilege first but with only 1 year warranty. Samsung Exclusive Dealer had offer 2 years warranty, which a big factor for me to buy from them. And, some of them do give free gift (bluetooth head set). So, I went to Puchong 1Utama at Damansara and bought one.. but claim for a very hot gadget, you have to wait as usual. Pay RM100 for pre-order, and I waited for 5 days when they gave me a call..

"Encik, handphone encik sudah sampai. Boleh mari ambik lo.." 

Paying full of RM2099 and subscribed to Celcom Data plan of RM38/month for 1Gb, I feel it is my best choice. Bringing back home my Samsung Galaxy S2, I presented to you guys what have I got.. let's have a look..

 (This small box.. worth a RM2k of money. Well, it travels a long way from Korea though. That's why..)

(Woooohohoho... very gorgeous....!)

Ignore the date coz I had bought it earlier on, but these are what inside that tiny little cute box...

• The smartphone, my Samsung Galaxy S2 of course. 
• Black palm-size box.
• Earphone (with additional ear pieces).
• Battery (just one).
• Charger. 
• Warranty card (but Samsung has registered me from their own SEP).
• Small Guide Book.
• And.. a blue Samsung bag.

Final Words..

Never regret of buying this product. The power of Super AMOLED screen is very stunning! Yet, it is so fast and smooth. Even a depressed suicidal-thought person might got euphoria with this in hand!

Alhamdulillah.. Wait for my next topic on how do I handle this awesome gadget for the first time. Thanks for dropping by. Do give me your thought.. ;-)

Life Has Changed!

Assalamualaikum..

Life has surely changed.

Long time ago, when I was a kid, it is very safe for me to go around the 'kampung' with bicycle alone from one end to one end. But now, it is not safe even at home. Would you lock your door when you're at home? I will. With a lot of news about home-breaking nowadays, it is scary to how evil people can go when you kneel at their foot..

Life has changed for how we communicate too..

Long time ago.. people need to go out of home to reach each other. People do write letters to tell how theirs doings. Postmen was quite famous and respected some time ago.. But now, do we write letter anymore to our parent? No way! Just give a phone call, and you're done. Both satisfied. Isn't it? Now, people don't have to go out to know how their friends' doings. Just log on Facebook, and there you see what they think and what they're doing. It is soooooo easy for you to express what you feel. Just type, and wholla.. hundreds of people will see what you think.

But.. luckily, one thing remain... when we tired, we still need to sleep. And I need to sleep now.. coz I am oncall tomorrow!

Day 7.. Chicken Pox Gone!

Assalamualaikum..


*Terima kasih kepada rakan-rakan yang sudi membaca blog saya yang tak seberapa ni. 

Hari ni hari terakhir MC saya. Huhu. Secara luarannya, badan saya memang nampak hodoh sekali kerana bintik-bintik berair (blisters) yang tumbuh merata kat badan saya sebelum ini dah mulai berkeruping. Ia jadi bintik-bintik hitam gitu.. Tapi itu adalah petanda saya sudah mulai pulih daripada jangkitan chicken pox ni. It's mean that I am not infective anymore, and officially fit for work! Aiyaak..

Bagaimana badan kita pulih daripada jangkitan virus?

Mungkin ada yang tertanya-tanya. Pada beberapa hari badan kita diserang virus, badan kita masih belum mampu untuk melawan lagi. Cara badan kita melawan virus tidak sama seperti melawan bakteria. Kalau bakteria, kita ada banyak antibiotik yang boleh membunuhnya. Tapi kalau virus, antivirus yang digunakan lebih kepada membantu badan kita melawannya atau merencatkan pembiakan virus itu. Oleh itu, jarang kita bagi ubat antivirus berbanding ubat antibiotik. So, kalo selsema tu janganla asyik minta ubat antivirus je. Makan buah-buahan banyak-banyak..

Ada sejenis sel darah putih (T lymphocyte) yang akan menghadam virus itu dan merangka 'peluru' yang bersesuaian (keserasian) dengan virus itu. 'Peluru' itu sebenarnya adalah sejenis protein antibodi yang bertindak menyerang virus/bakteria yang serasi dengannya. Apabila sel itu berjaya dalam ujikajinya, maka sel itu akan membiak banyak-banyak supaya setiap satu sel itu dapat bekerja menghasilkan 'peluru-peluru' dalam jumlah yang banyak. Dan, 'peluru-peluru' itu akan dilepaskan ke dalam darah untuk memusnahkan virus yang ada dalam badan. Al-hasilnya.. barulah virus-virus itu mati. So, ambil masa seminggu dua la jugak.

Hari Yang Indah..

Assalamualaikum..

Hari ni ada beberapa perkara yang ingin ku lakukan. Dimulai dgn TCA anak laki aku yg paling kecik tu, urusan bank dan balik kampung bawak mak pegi shopping..

Kemas rumah, dah!
Jemur baju, dah!
Mandi anak, dah! (eh, ni bini aku yg buat).

Tapi.. rasa bersemangat hari ni. Semangat nak berbisnes berkobar-kobar rasanya. Jarang dapat rasa macam ni. Semalam aku berjaya instal Sygic Navigation dalam SGS2 aku. Memang best GPS dia.

Hari ni indah sekali..
Yela, sebab bercuti..

Finally.. My New 'Wife'.

Assalamualaikum..

Finally.. I get a hold on the best-performance smartphone in the world, Samsung Galaxy S2. I considered it as my new 'wife' (Don't get me wrong. It is just a metaphor. No one could replace my wife, she is perfect for me.), that even my real wife got jealous. Huahahaha..

Actually..

It has been my intention to buy high-end phone ever since I got this job. But as I don't want to rush into things as I used to be, I go slowly. I love computer and gadget, which not very surprising for male species, I think. It took me 1 year and half to change my old PC to a new branded laptop, Dell Studio 15. With new Windows 7 operating system, I just love it and never feel regret of spending every cent of it.

But handphone.. just a RM50 worth of today's money. Very simple, very basic, very boring. But I keep my eyes on the new phone.. but I still waiting. I don't know when to change to new better phone, but as money never enough, I just keep that wish in heart..

Then, my friends and my co-workers start showing their glaring smartphones. That's when I came to believe that what I read in internet about all those smartphones are really approaching into my life. Seeing them using iPhone.. using Nokia N8.. then.. Sony Xperia.. Ooo my god! What a temptation! How can I resist on such peer pressure when it is my long deep desire to own too...

Then, I started my research.. which phone worth buying.. At first, my initial budget was less than RM1000. I thought that just enough for calling, SMS, and some few entertainment would suffice for me. Along the way, I found out that I need to add GPS on my phone too. Then, the budget rise.. RM1500.. RM1750.. RM2000.. until, argh! I don't care how much as long as I got this phone, Samsung Galaxy S2!

At that time, it has not released yet in Malaysia. But, has released in Korea.. So, I wait.. put some saving, and wait.. Other rival companies tried to steal my money with their.. Motorola Atrix.. LG Optimus 2X.. iPhone 4.. but my heart has already fall in love with this one. Nothing changed! (Actually, I am quite a loyal guy, Eceeeh!)

Until it launched in Malaysia on 22 June 2011. I still remember that day, Wednesday, I felt all the excitement to buy it but still.. I do research on which way best to buy..

Then, I decided to pay full RRP RM2099 with add Data plan RM38/1Gb on my Celcom number. To me, paying low for Maxis but becamed hooked with their contract is not wise at all. Their monthly payment is monstrous! Celcom still has the best coverage, and I am satisfied so far.

There you go.. a Samsung Galaxy S2, finally, on the palm of my hand. Really love it! It's worth buying! But, I do remember that technology move very fast. Once you have money, just buy what satisfying you already. Waiting for better phone will never end. New and newer better phone will keep coming..

*If you have any question about the phone, just ask me on comment below.
