I like Download Booster feature of Samsung Galaxy S5. You can use both Wi-Fi and 4G connections to speed up your file download. Yes, lot of time will be saved. Guess what? There is actually an Android application 2 years ago called Super Download which do the very same thing ~ download web files with Wi-Fi and mobile data at the same time. And it does not limit to 4G only. You can use 3G data connection as well. As usual, root access is required for good stuff.
As expected, Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is getting some of the Galaxy S5 features. Yes, UK users are starting to get Galaxy S5 features like KNOX 2 and Download Booster in the latest firmware update. And the Kids Mode that I like to use. Can’t wait for Malaysia firmware OTA to come.
Want to enjoy Samsung Galaxy S5 now? Well, you can’t unless you have close relation with Samsung. But you can make Galaxy Note 3 looks a bit more like Galaxy S5. So far, you can enable Galaxy S5 settings UI. As usual, good stuffs require give and take – root access is needed.
As expected, Samsung Galaxy S4 is getting Galaxy S5 applications like S Note, WatchOn, Calculator, Gear Fit Manager, Galaxy Gear Manager, S Health and S Translator now. Just install them like normal apk. Or wait for Galaxy S5 next month for the actual experience. By the way, you need KitKat TouchWiz ROM in order to use them. Therefore, they should work on Galaxy Note 3 too.
Samsung Galaxy S5 is the latest flagship from Samsung. And it is coming real soon at 11th April. I was hoping for better hardware specifications. A delay of 1 or 2 months won’t hurt much. Guess that Galaxy Note Series is the actual Samsung flagship for Android smartphone, not S series anymore. In short, it just likes an overclocked Galaxy Note 3 with Snapdragon 801 processor. 16MP camera but without optical image stabilizer again. Same FHD Super AMOLED. I was hoping for 2K resolution. Yes, you get IP67 dust and water resistant. And finger scanner for secure, biometric screen locking feature and safer mobile payment. Heart rate monitor for healthier lifestyle. Err… 16GB model with 2GB of RAM is still there. Come on, Samsung. Galaxy Note 3 base model is already 32GB storage and 3GB RAM, why go back?
