Samsung Thread

[Crazycajun]

Can't seem to find a thread about powerbanks so post ko na lang ditto inquiry ko since Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 naman ang phone ko.

I bought this very cheap 2600 mAh powerbank for 399 pesos. My phone's battery is also at 2600 mAh. However, the powerbank only charges up to 25%-30%. Isn't it supposed to charge at least 90%-100% since both the powerbank and the battery are at the same capacity? That is how it was explained to me. Don't know much about powerbanks. TIA.

Like what's said in Physics, there no such thing as a 100% efficient engine/machine. You have to take into account that some energy's gonna be lost somewhere in the process, so a 2600mAh power bank might actually only be 2000mAh or even lower.

That's true for all power banks, but the main difference between a cheap power bank and one coming from a reputable company (like Anker) is that the ones made by reputable companies have a capacity closer to what's actually stated in their ad (take note, "closer", not 100% since that's impossible).

... and I'd probably stay away from a P399 power bank. If it's really cheap then it's probably fake and might even malfunction after a couple of charges. Try looking for an original Yoobao powerbank (there are tons of fake Yoobaos now, so be careful) or just order an Anker powerbank from Amazon. I have a 15000mAh Yoobao power bank that I bought from a TPC seller for P2400. Checked its serial number online for authenticity and was glad to know that it wasn't fake.

been using S6 edge for a week. no lags, bugs and very fast so far. finally they got rid some of their useless S apps integration on the home screen and camera loads from lock screen faster than on iphone. they got it right this time.

so no bloatware this time?

[VincH]

^yung ibang mga s features pwede i-on sa settings pero naka off sa akin. useless din naman. yung fingerprint scanner ok din, parang iphone ang bilis. meron pala akong na experience na lag, kapag nag swipe ako from left most of home screen papuntang magazine/flipboard then going back sa home. yun lang.

[grayfox17]

^peram naman, testingin ko din ibabalik ko din pramis!

[flipsflops]

Naka off sa akin yang Flipboard since di ko naman ginagamit. Mag iisang buwan na since nakuha ko yung phone, and so far ang naging problema ko lang yung battery.

sabagay, mark up talaga pag mall price tsaka 64gb naman yan

[flipsflops]

Yes. On a busy day(Chat, email, texts, calls etc), maswerte na kung meron pa akong 30% na battery after work.

@VincH Magkano yung clear view case? And protected ba talaga yung likod?

[VincH]

P2250 kuha ko sa Samsung store and yes, protected ang likod.

may issue ang clear view case, nakaka scratch ng screen

nabasa ko nung nakabili na ako.

because I really like the s6, ill surely buy the Galaxy Note 5. a Galaxy Note phone with finger print scanner like the s6, toned down fast and stable touchwiz plus a very quick camera launcher could be the best android phone or smart phone ever!

this is coming from an apple fan
