Advanced Camera: High Quality Images No Matter the Time of Day or Location

first Dual Pixel camera on a smartphone, delivering brighter and
sharper images, even in low light. Thanks to the revolutionary Dual

movement to traditional panoramic photos, giving the user a completely
immersive visual experience.

Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge deliver fast
wired and wireless charging technology. Additionally, the hybrid SIM
card tray allows users to insert a microSD card for up to 200GB of
additional storage and in some select countries, the tray can be used
with a dual SIM card.
 
Samsung also made significant hardware and
software updates to optimize gaming performance on Galaxy S7 and Galaxy
S7 edge. The powerful processer and bigger battery capacity ensure
longer playing time, and the internal cooling system keeps the device
from overheating. Game Launcher, a new add-on for gamers, allows users
to manage battery consumption and minimize notifications. Additionally,
users can record their gaming experience or share their screen to play
with others. Paired with Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge, Vulkan API gives
users the ability to play high-performance graphic games with lower
battery consumption.
 

The Galaxy Experience
 
Samsung continues to push the boundaries

life. The company is redefining what is possible, beyond the limits of
today’s technology, by introducing a constellation of seamless mobile
experiences.
 
Whether it’s the seamless connection

monitor fitness, or connecting with Gear VR to “travel” the world –
Samsung redefines what’s possible for the mobile experience and beyond.
 
Beyond the phone, Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7
edge users can also get the best mobile payment service with Samsung
Pay; it’s secure, easy-to-use and accepted almost anywhere. Protected by
Samsung KNOX, fingerprint scanning and advanced tokenization, Samsung

Samsung Galaxy S II by DiGi: Is it worth it?

DiGi has just released a promotion for Samsung Galaxy S II. You might be thinking what the heck am I posting this thing to a page that is specific to iPhone. Well, I’m open-minded person and didn’t close my eyes something that is different that what I’m using now (iPhone 4).
Is this Samsung Galaxy S II by DiGi a good offer? Lets see what DiGi promotion really works in real life:

1. The price is RM1767 if you buy it online from DiGi Online Store with 24-month contract using the DG Smart Plan 68 or 12-month contract at RM1867.
If you choose the DG Smart Plan 48 for 12-month or 24-month, the price is RM1697.
2. It doesn’t matter whether you choose black or white SGS II since the price is the same.
3. That price include the Advance Payment and Misc Fees, but all this amount will be credited back to your first month bill. No worries about that.
4. Does SGS II from DiGi really worth it? For me, the answer is yes. I have been using iPhone 4 from DiGi with iDiGi plan. I only need to pay monthly at RM65 maximum with unlimited Internet. Even though the iDiGi plan only give 1GB of bandwidth, iDiGi never charges extra for extra bandwidth that I use. iDiGi will limit the speed to 128kbps for the extra bandwidth that I use.
5. So, is it really worth it? Yes, if you are a frequent Facebookers, blogger, Flickrer or plain Internet addict, this might be the best plan to you. But, if you are a frequent downloader (or torrenter), this is perfectly NOT good to you. Hehe. This is based on my opinion only and I’m not yellow or related to DiGi.
