DO NOT BUY SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 IF YOU HAVE S3 OR NOTE 2

A close look at the new Samsung galaxy S4 will bring your mind to work. But the good thing is that if you  are using S3 or Note2, then buying a samsung S4 will be equal to buying another S3 or Note2(updated version). The difference between S4 and S3 is basically in software innovations and not hardware,and for those using S3 and Note2, they can still enjoy all the features of S4 by doing an update which will be available soon. A research by naijatechiworld shows that S3 users are already waiting for the updates.

A physical comparison between Samsung Galaxy S4 and Samsung Galaxy S3 won’t reveal much difference; in fact both have a lot of things in common as the image below will show you.

Processor & RAM:

An average mobile phone user may not even notice the difference in the processor while using the two phones, probably the Samsung Galaxy S4 will be a faster phone than the Samsung Galaxy S3 because the RAM is higher 2GB against 1GB for Samsung Galaxy S3. But then the truth is that most mobile phone users cannot not even consume the 1GB RAM except you are playing a HD game on your device.

Operating System & Display:

Samsung Galaxy S4 is running on the latest Android OS Jelly Bean 4.2.2 against the Android 4.1.2 version for the Samsung Galaxy S3 which can as well be updated to 4.2.2.  Samsung has also improved from the 4.8” HD super AMOLED 1280×720 display resolution and 306ppi pixel density to 5” Full Super AMLED 1920×1080 and 440ppi pixel density for the Samsung Galaxy S4, but what difference does that make for an average user?

Camera:

The new Samsung Galaxy S4 also came with two cameras just like the Samsung Galaxy S3 but the difference is that the Samsung Galaxy S4 now has 13MP back camera and 2MP front camera as against the 8MP back camera and 1.9MP front camera for the Samsung Galaxy S3. You won’t be able to notice difference in picture quality between these two phones if you are not told.

Dimensions:

The new Samsung Galaxy S4 is just 136.6mm (height) x 69.8mm (Width) x 7.9mm (Thickness) and just weighs 130g while its predecessor is just 136.6mm (height) x 70.6mm (Width) x 8.6mm (Thickness) and weighs 133g. The Samsung Galaxy S4 is slimmer yet the change is almost negligible.

Battery:

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is just 2600mAh as against 2100mAh of the Samsung Galaxy S3 which means a longer lasting time, yet every battery will still run out if it is not recharged.

Now that is mainly the hardware specification difference of the Samsung Galaxy S4 and Samsung galaxy S3, so let us look at what is new with the Samsung Galaxy S4 software.

How to make folders on iPad?

Do you know You can create a folder on your ipad? 70% of Ipad users are not aware that Apple’s iPad and iPhone 5 that runs on iOS 4.0 or its latest version 6.1 allows you to create virtual containers for similar applications. With these containers, you can easily store, organize or categorize each app that you have downloaded and installed on this device. Many users of this tablet have waited for this functionality for a very long time. Thanks to firmware update, they can now add virtual containers. Each container can hold up to 4400 apps. As mentioned earlier, these containers let you organize easily this device. This is in contrary to the earlier version of iOS that left you having apps displayed only on the main menu screen.

Here are the steps in creating virtual containers on Apple’s tablet:

1. Enter into the move state.

You can do this by placing your finger on the icon of a certain app. Hold the icon down until all icons start to jiggle. You will also notice that some icons display a black circle that has an X mark right in the middle.
You need to be in this state so you can move icons to different places. As long as your finger is on the screen, holding the icon down, it will move with your finger.

2. Drop the icon on top of another icon.

By dropping an icon on top of another icon, the said app is highlighted and you will notice a dark square. This simply signifies that you can add a virtual container when you lift your finger. You can place other icons in the created virtual container by dragging and dropping them to the said container.
This device will automatically name the container based on the type of application the icons represent. For instance, if you drag Game 1 and drop it on top of Game 2, the device will automatically create a virtual container named “Game.”

3. Rename the container if you wish.

If you want to rename Game into Play, you just need to tap the title area of the container. Then type in a new name, say, Play, using the on-screen keyboard. As mentioned earlier, this device automatically assigns a smart name for the created virtual container according to the functionality of the two icons you have combined.

4. Press the Home button.

Once you are done creating virtual containers, you may press the Home button of your device to exit.
After you are done creating containers, you can tap the container’s icon so you can access the apps you have placed in there. To exit from the container, you just need to press the Home button.
You will notice that you find it difficult to move an app from one screen or page to the next in order to add a virtual container. The reason for this is that the device lets you organize icons on one screen. To have it in an easier manner, you just need to drag and drop the icon from its current screen to the screen where you want to create a virtual container. Once you have placed all icons you want to organize on one page, you can now pick them up to create a new virtual container for these icons.
These virtual containers are useful in saving all your apps that you rarely use. In this way, the number of icons displayed on the screen pages is significantly reduced. This is especially true if you have more than 50 apps on your device.
If you wish to remove the virtual container, you just have to tap it. Then, hold down an app that is in that container until all icons start to jiggle. When the icons within that container wobble, drag each icon found in that container to the Home screen.
