I think your the saddest person... you are in a Apple centric website and all you do is praise your Samsung products?
I will understand if you are a shill (at least you r trying to make money).

Btw.. i know, you don't have a wife! Stop talking about with your imaginary wife. Take the medicine.
I've obviously hit a nerve there and upset you my friend, I can only apologize... You couldn't be more wrong tho, if you read my posts I embrace all technologies.. In the last 2 years, the following has resided in my house, a iPhone 5c, a lg g3, a iPad air, a galaxy tab s, and my mom a istamt wife's s6, I have more than a good understanding of all technologies.. I just find it bizarre to pin your flag to the last of one till death do is part.. Peace..
 
I've never tried an Android phone and have no opinion of the OS or Samsung phone hardware whatsoever. My iPhones have always done everything I've needed and more, so I have no intention or desire to switch camps.

But I have to admit that the Edge is an awesome looking phone. Something about the edge-to-edge curved screen just does it for me.
Variety my friend is called the spice of life for a reason, would you eat the same meal in a restaurant every time you went..
 
Starting with 5.0 lollipop Android went full 64 bit kernel .its still a gimmick untill we get 8gb of ram for devs to take full advantage of 64bit registers

And the galaxy phones usually lead the market on supported bands,heck the iPhone 6s is rumored to have the same modem as last years galaxy s5.

Good god, 64 bit is about more than just memory!... You knew that I'm sure... But, ok, hey, whatever...

That discussion has been beaten to death and some people still don't understand. It is like a really bad myth that just won't die.

And I'm sure you know 64bit takes up more space and in certain circumstances is slower right.

Good god what is your malfunction.I could put a pc running 32 bit and the same exact hardware using 64bit registers and you would not tell the difference.

64,128 and 384 bit makes a difference when pushing 2tera flops per second through a memory controller in a high end gpu but not nearly needed or taken advantage of in a 1 or 3 gb ram bottle neck

The new tega x1 is an 8 core tablet with 300+ gpu cores and has the same gpu power as an Xbox 1 and that soc is the first one that actually has the grunt to need 64 bit but it bring only 3gb ram is what's really holding it back.if they gave that tablet 8gb devs could load 5gb maps in games.

Yeah, we've all been there, that period of time when Android seems so great, but then the longer you use it the slower it becomes and then the lag start and it just goes down hill from here. Been there and done that! I cannot wait to get rid of my Note 4. Don't be fooled!

backup with SmartSwitch and do a factory restore. Enjoy your Note 4 after that.
 
the problem with this accessory is that Apple doesn't have anything like it so what was Samsung supposed to copy it from?? In the end they went with copying BBRY, but alas BBRY design looks very dated.

if Apple made this, they would be calling it revolutionary. Please
 
This post screams fanboy to me.
In the one example you include the brand name, in the other you don’t. You should have said either;

Friend one: Apple iPhone 6+
Friend two: Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+


or;

Friend one: iPhone 6+
Friend two: Galaxy S6 Edge+

True, I really do not like Samsung's smartphone offerings
 
It's nice that we have someone from the fanboy police here to set things straight. Be sure you change OSX 10.10.4 to Apple OSX 1010.4 in your signature so that you follow your own rules.

Seriously, that’s what you had? You shouldn’t have bothered. That was an abysmal attempt at sarcasm/humour and I suspect you know it.

Only the code takes more space. Most of an app is not code.
So, again, what's your point, there is more advantages on an ARM than memory when going to 64 bit.
As for Ram holding it back, only is your a bad programmer (95% of single apps run fine one 1G) running on crap os like Android (which is a memory hog).

The issue is running many different apps, or apps that work similar to having many different apps (like a browser which have many tabs containing data or almost arbitrary size). In that case, eventually you do have to dump something out of memory. Android browsers with more memory dont perform better than those on IOS; what's their excuse for lagging with one tab open!

Please tell us the advantages using 64bit with 600mb of usable memory. I'm dying to here your response.

Even 64 bit computers after over a decade of being 64 bit are not even taking advantage of it.heck not even most high end games are written in 32bit to save space and most are not even multithreaded.

Here is the exact same version of chrome one codded in 32 bit and one arm64 and there is absolutely zero noticeable difference in use and it takes up 2x the space.your advantages are washed out with 1gb of ram when the apps take up 2x the space and fill that ram up.

Like I said we will get full use of 64 bit when we go 8gb ram and devs can allocate that extra usuable memory to load more data in the pool.

The tegra x1 has a few special developed games that are taking advantage of 64 bit like the full real port of doom and the unreal engine running full real time but those games are 6gb and still get bottle necked by its ram.

Again, please read up more of stop posting. I dont give a hoot about the crud Google produces.
Most of their front end code is atrocious. Their systems people seemingly are better...
Their Javascript libs have been as bad as anything I've ever seen and I've seen a lot.

I'm not replying anymore because you don'T get it. I've been coding since the late 1970s so please spare me your lessons.

Also, please learn to insert pictures so they don't take the whole screen...

I was just thinking the same of your posts. How ironic your post really is.

64-bit code is, on average, faster, and, more secure (strong ASLR). Yes, the code is a little bigger, but, the average code is faster anyway.

Even 64 bit computers after over a decade of being 64 bit are not even taking advantage of it.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Except for MicroSoft apps (e.g. Office) and Google Earth, my Macs are 32-bit free. My iPhone is nearly 32-bit free.

heck not even most high end games are written in 32bit to save space and most are not even multithreaded.

No offense, but, my limited exposure to game quality (a while ago now) is that it is the most sloppily written, fragile pile of throwaway code on the planet. I hope game code quality has improved, but, I wouldn't take games as being exemplars of best practice.

Here is the exact same version of chrome one codded in 32 bit and one arm64 and there is absolutely zero noticeable difference in use and it takes up 2x the space.your advantages are washed out with 1gb of ram when the apps take up 2x the space and fill that ram up.

That looks like the app file has both 32-bit and 64-bit code inside. You are bringing up an interesting Android question. Is it possible to strip the 32-bit code version out when downloading/managing apps? Flash is a scarce resource on phones, and, the environment should strip out unused/unneeded code versions whenever possible.

Back on security: Besides ASLR and DEP, it looks like the development environments should also have a newer security measure, that AFAIK, is still experimental but can be done on FreeBSD on x86-64: CPI- Code-Pointer Integrity. As far as I am concerned, security is the #1 issue on these classes of products today.

The 2 apk files are solo coded files,one is just 32bit and the other is just 64bit there is no both in one and defeats the whole purpose of having 2 files.

I can run both at the same time if I wanted

Here is Facebook same version,one for Android 32bit and one for 64bit and it takes up 10mb more space.

On arm 64 kernels you can't install 32bit apps so its eating up space compiled in 64bit

Yes, Samsung has a time machine in 2011 that goes into the future to copy the name:

http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/7.0/index.html

Those bastards! I knew Samsung was up to no good.

it is astonishing how ignorant people are about samsung's line of products. I get that people have never used the before or not bothered to buy a samsung phone. But if people are going to make accusations of copying they should check to make sure the they truly copied. A Google search would do it.

But people are quick to jump in the I hate Samsung train. Apple and Samsung both make quality smartphones. Why hate. More options for consumers is a good thing.
 
So Samsung has had over 2 years to use the icons that they use in Tzen on their previous smart watches but chose to not do so until Apple released their watch. Samsung really has incredible timing don't they.

great, now that you' are aware that Tizen has that circular icons for years, then why did Apple watch copied it with their circular icons? :rolleyes:
 
They can't, and don't expect... If you check Samsung history.. preferably copycat cases.
It's their DNA.. it is on their name Samesung... Samesung... Samesung!!!!

Hahaha, agreed. But still, I get more with their devices.

So I'll choose them every time.

Also, let's see what Windows can accomplish in, say, 6 months. I like the way their OSes look, but sadly they're still Windows.

Still, I'll have to give them a chance because they're an unknown factor at this point for me.

Apple is a known factor: I detest its look and limitations.
