Alexander L 80 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Not a leap enough to upgrade from an Iphone4. The 4s can go stick it self into the pavement. I'm wanting the 5. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Yeah, very surprised with the phone but then Apple didn't help themselves by either confirming / denying it was going to be an iPhone 5. The media and bloggers went crazy about it and that didn't help. SO far the cycle has been iPhone 3 -> iPhone 3gs -> iPhone 4 -> iPhone 4s -> iPhone5 perhaps? Never mind, motorola have a quad core phone coming out next year and the nexus prime is due soon too. You plan to upgrade to one of those Man? I have a Galaxy S and, as far as liking a phone goes, I kinda like it. Link to post Share on other sites
BeerTengoku 35 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 na going for the htc evo 3d, would love the galaxy s 2 but not changing to docomo for it. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Well I am really happy with my Android Aquas 3D phone. What I like the most is the ability to easily download any app you want, and so many are free and work 100% ok. I have 97 apps on it at the moment! I down loaded firefox brouser, and works same as on the computer. My phone came with a pre-installed browser anyway, but thought I would download it anyway to try it. The phones now really can do pretty much anything, I can even check my heart rate with my phone or measure the length of things. Can't see that I will be changing to an I-phone, as it doesn't do anything more than the phone I have now, I can even watch 3D TV and 3D movies on it! Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 So is the 3D anything other than a gimmick? Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Depends how you look at it. 3D is not needed for sure, but it is fun to be able to watch TV and movies, music videos in 3D, and don't even need the 3D glasses either. I do like equipment with lots of functions and gadgets, etc added to them. Link to post Share on other sites
BeerTengoku 35 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Agreed, it's great to see the boy in the 3d pics but it is a gimmick. Loving my htc evo so far, and the tethering is amazing! Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 curious about this tethering. It would mean I could get rid of my second data contract and mifi, right? do any of the docomo phones offer that? Link to post Share on other sites

Think docomo phones that have lte capability will allow tethering, perhaps looking at their product lineup will help? Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I'm surprised they allow that. Link to post Share on other sites
LiquidX 0 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I see iphone 4s had over 1 million pre-orders in 24 hours. Fail, indeed! Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 This may well be incorrect, so.. salt, please. I heard that the Galaxy S capabilities are there on the Japanese one, but they know that it is being used that way and there's an extra cost (?). Just putting it out there.

BeerTengoku 35 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Yeah, for au it is free on the 3g network, but wimax is free for two months then yen / month Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Whats wimax, Man? Link to post Share on other sites
BeerTengoku 35 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Essentially 4G - the new generation of mobile networks. Faster and better. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Really interesting about being able to connect like wifi from your phone. Especially if it doesn't cost more than the data pack you have on your phone. Must investigate. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Yeah I think all the new smart phones have wimax / wifi on them as standard now? Mine has those on. Link to post Share on other sites

Thundercat 60 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I had a look at the Au catalog yesterday and I think there were only 2 phones that had the wimax feature. The majority of smartphones didn't have it. Link to post Share on other sites

The majority of smartphones didn't have it. The HTC Evo 3d, the Motorola Photon, Fujitsu Arrows, HTC Evo, and Kyocera Digno all have WIMAX enabled. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 The Fujitsu Arrows and Kyocera Digno are all 'coming soon' according to the October 2011 catalog. So 3 instead of 2. I'm sure in the future every phone will have it but I was referring to the ones you can actually get in stores now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I see I stand corrected! Ok guess they don't all have it yet, won't be long before every model will have as standard. Link to post Share on other sites
