Why I Deserve To Win a Samsung Galaxy Tab

I stumbled upon this site and I found Advertlets organised a competition to Malaysian bloggers so I thought how about giving a shot since the prize is the device that I really want so badly . YES , VERY BADLY .

8 Reasons Why I Deserve To Win a Samsung Galaxy Tab

1. Flash

I can view the flash !


The browser can view flash files flawlessly since Galaxy Tab have Flash Player 10.1 . So if I want to play game at this website flash-game.net using tablet , now I can !
To the iPad owners , I have a presents for you . *evil laugh*



2. Android

Android is a mobile operating system by Google.
This device runs on Android 2.2 (Froyo) or Frozen Yogurt which I like to call it ‘Frogurt’.
Tons of applications you can download from Android Market. By default , Samsung Galaxy Tab has already preinstalled with tons off applications so you can edit documents and watch movies and do lot of other cool stuff .

3. Ebook Reader

There is an application called Readers Hub preinstalled in Samsung Galaxy Tab which you can read ebooks (powered by Kobo) , news and magazine.


 



In News reader category you will find a list of country and the news that you can subscribe. Believe it or not in Malaysia there are 10 news sources that I can choose from while other country mostly have 2 or 3.


Which means I can read “The Star” using Galaxy Tab and I can stop buying hardcopy of newspapers.
With this I am using less paper and it is good for environment . Yay !
Check out review by Winnie Kepala and watch on 0:40.




4. Phone and Video Call

Samsung Galaxy Tab is not just a tablet . It’s a GIANT PHONE ! I can make calls like I normally do with my cellphone and also video call so that I can have sort of like Apple FaceTime experience.
And yes you are right .. I can put sim card and enjoy calling people although I am not gonna put it beside my ear so that other people won’t be staring at me ( like this woman below ).





5.  Look Ma ! Only One Hand !

The Galaxy Tab is a 7 inch device and I can hold it with one hand !




That means it is lightweight and mobile so I can bring it anywhere I want especially when I’m going to class .
And yes , I can even put it in my pocket and look like a douchebag .

6. It’s made by Samsung !

Samsung is a Korean Company which have a great trump card ” Super Amoled Display ” technology.




As you can see with Samsung Galaxy S , their LCD technology really superb if you want to compare with other lcd technology. So far the build quality of Samsung product is really impressive and well made.

7. Camera

With iPad you can only dream for taking pictures but with this device I can capture a still picture or doing a video recording. It does not provide with one but two camera front and back so that I can take pictures of someone else cute cats and post it on icanhascheezburger.com .




8. Accessories

There are tons of accessories for this device ..






And off course the one that I am planning to buy is going to be a car dock that I found in Lowyat Forum .


Warning !!! . Samsung Galaxy Tab is not for ..

1 . Apple fanboy

If you are one of them like AbdusFauzi you guys will prefer an iPad instead.

2. Not a Chick Magnet

Cute chicks like FinaFedora might not want Samsung Galaxy Tab because she always want an iPad since all her favourite games can only be play with iOS devices like Apple iPhone , iPod Touch and iPad.

3. Android Market vs Apple Appstore

The number of applications from the Apple app store is really big comparing to Android Market by a huge margin . But to me time will tell what is going to happen in the future . More and more Android devices is sold to the consumer and the developer like me should know the target market is getting bigger and bigger .
Also , big numbers doesn’t mean better apps . Nuff said :)

4. 7 inch screen vs 10 inch screen

For me it depends on preferences . As for me I found 7 inches is good enough although if you want to enjoy your favourite movie you might want to consider larger screens.

Conclusion :

For those who want to own one  :
  • You can buy through Maxis and the details is here.
  • Or join this contest by Advertlets and create a blog post “Why I Deserve To Win a Samsung Galaxy Tab”. Check the details here .
Or you can just wait until a new version came out . There is rumour ( yes .. it’s only a rumour .. and off course not confirm yet ) that Samsung will release a Samsung Galaxy Tab which has the Super Amoled Display. The rumour can be found by gizmodo here .

Apa Kepentingan RAM Manufacture???







Ingatan capaian rawak atau random access memory (RAM) ialah sejenis bentuk storan data komputer. Lazimnya ia merupakan gabungan beberapa litar bersepadu di atas satu modul. Modul ingatan ini kemudian dimasukkan ke slot RAM di atas papan induk.
Jumlah kapasiti pada sesuatu modul RAM itu biasanya gandaan dari angka dua. Manakala unit ukuran yang digunakan untuk mengukur RAM pula ialah Megabait (MB). 1 MB bersamaan dengan 100 Kilobait (KB). Contoh kapasiti modul RAM ialah 64 MB, 128 MB dan 256 MB. Kebanyakan papan induk mempunyai sekurang-kurangnya 2 slot modul ingatan. Ini membolehkan beberapa modul ingatan dimasukkan di atas papan induk (bank ingatan). Teknologi “saluran duaan” berteraskan kepada dua modul yang kecil untuk membentuk satu kapasiti yang besar. Ini membolehkan capaian data pada kadaran yang lebih cepat. Misalnya untuk memiliki jumlah sebanyak 512 MB, kadar capaian data untuk dua keping modul 256 MB adalah lebih cepat berbanding dengan satu memori modul sebanyak 512 MB.
 
RAM Manufactured

RAM Manufactured adalah RAM yang dikeluarkan oleh Syarikat Hp, Dell, Acer, Asus, Sony (Vaio) iaitu pembekal Komputer yang berjenama. RAM yang dikeluarkan oleh syarikat ini adalah dikhaskan untuk produk desktop/Laptop keluaran mereka.

RAM Manufactured ini telah dimasukkan kedalam setiap produk desktop/laptop keluaran syarikat berjenama ini.

Apa itu Intel Core i3, i5 dan i7 ???

Dalam event CES 2010, Intel merilis lebih dari satu lusin processor baru masih dalam rangka menyukseskan tipe family Core, termasuk chip processor i3, i5 dan i7. Chip Intel Core yang berbasis teknologi Intel Arrandale dan Clarkdale tersebut merupakan processor dengan proses manufaktur 32nm pertama dari Intel.

Intel memperkenalkan 4 Core i3, 8 Core i5 dan 7 buah chip Core i7, yang kesemuanya memiliki tekenologi Hyper-Threading untuk proses multitasking. Processor Intel Core baru tersebut didesain untk desktop, mobile computing, dan device lainnya.

Processor Core i5 dan i7 dilengkapi dengan teknologi Turbo Boost untuk performance prima, karena Turbo Boost didesain untuk secara otomatis memberikan akselerasi performance dan menyediakan dukungan ekstra performance ketika dibutuhkan. Sedangkan untuk processor pemula Core i3 tidak dilengkapi teknologi Turbo Boost, namun menyediakan support grafis HD (High Definition) yang dibangun di dalam processor.

Intel mengungkapkan, bahwa kini sudah tidak dibutuhkan lagi tambahan grafis baik untuk desktop ataupun laptop yang memiliki processor Core i3. Intel menyiapkan 2 processor Core i3 dan 2 untuk komputer mobile dengan kecepatan clock antara 2.13GHz dan 3.06GHz.

Lain halnya dengan Core i5 yang hadir dengan variasi style dan kecepatan baik untuk laptop maupun desktop. Fitur processor mobile i5-540M misalnya dapat meraih top speed 2.53GHz, dan 3.06MHz dengan Turbo Boost. Kebanyakan processor Core i5 adalah chip ULV (Ultra Low Voltage), ungkap Intel.


Sedangkan seperti Core i7-620UM memiliki clock speed 1.06GHz, dan dapat mencapai 2.13GHz dengan Turbo Boost. Processor Intel Core i7 adalah yang paling mahal dan menjadi top line dari seluruh family Core terbaru Intel, yang dibandrol dengan harga $332, sedangkan i5 hanya $113.(h_n).(sumber beritanet)

Mau coba upgrade dari core 2 duo ke core i3/i5/i7..? sayangnya kalo mau upgrade prc diatas motherboard memory juga harus ganti mang karena memory support DDR3 sedangkan core 2 duo rata2 support DDR2 saja.

Bagi yang hoby upgrade silahkan dicoba pokoke maknyus speednya…


Mungkin banyak yang bingung dengan produk-produk keluaran intel, ada core2, core quad, sekarang lagi ngetrend corei ? Intel dah agak lama merilis processor terbarunya yaitu Intel core i7, kemudian disusul i5 dan i3. Yang perlu diperhatikan nanti Intel ga bakal pake lagi brand core 2 duo dan core 2 quad, sedangkan brand pentium dan celeron bakal dipertahankan. Terus kalo brand centrino mereka bakal pake di produknya yang berbasis Wifi dan Wimax, jadi ga bakal lagi kita nemuin notebook dengan brand Intel Centrino. Berikut review tentang Intel Core i3, i5 dan i7.

Lalu apa perbedaan dari ketiga produk barunya tersebut? Intinya sih core i3 ditujukan buat Entry Level, core i5 buat mid level, kalo core i7 buat High Level. Terus ketiganya bakal ditanam di dekstop maupun notebook. Selain itu, core i5 dan i7 mengadopsi fitur “Intel Turbo Mode Technology” dimana fitur ini akan mematikan core yang tidak dipakai ketika memproses aplikasi yang hanya membutuhkan single thread, ketika memproses aplikasi single thread, processor akan mengoverclock aliran thread data yang berjalan di atasnya sehingga pemrosesan lebih cepat, sedangkan jika memproses aplikasi yang bukan single thread, core tersebut akan hidup kembali.

Berikut deskripsi lebih jelasnya mengenai ketiga produk ini:

Intel Core i7

Core i7 sendiri merupakan processor pertama dengan teknologi “Nehalem”. Nehalem menggunakan platform baru yang betul-betul berbeda dengan generasi sebelumnya. Salah satunya adalah mengintegrasikan chipset MCH langsung di processor, bukan motherboard. Nehalem juga mengganti fungsi FSB menjadi QPI (Quick Path Interconnect) yang lebih revolusioner.

Intel Core i5
Jika Bloomfield adalah codename untuk Core i7 maka Lynnfield adalah codename untuk Core i5. Core i5 adalah seri value dari Core i7 yang akan berjalan di socket baru Intel yaitu socket LGA-1156. Tertarik begitu mendengar kata value ? Tepat ! Core i5 akan dipasarkan dengan harga sekitar US$186.

Kelebihan Core i5 ini adalah ditanamkannya fungsi chipset Northbridge pada inti processor (dikenal dengan nama MCH pada Motherboard). Maka motherboard Core i5 yang akan menggunakan chipset Intel P55 (dikelas mainstream) ini akan terlihat lowong tanpa kehadiran chipset northbridge. Jika Core i7 menggunakan Triple Channel DDR 3, maka di Core i5 hanya menggunakan Dual Channel DDR 3. Penggunaan dayanya juga diturunkan menjadi 95 Watt. Chipset P55 ini mendukung Triple Graphic Cards (3x) dengan 1×16 PCI-E slot dan 2×8 PCI-E slot. Pada Core i5 cache tetap sama, yaitu 8 MB L3 cache.

Intel juga meluncurkan Clarksfield, yaitu Core i5 versi mobile yang ditujukan untuk notebook. Socket yang akan digunakan adalah mPGA-989 dan membutuhkan daya yang terbilang cukup kecil yaitu sebesar 45-55 Watt.

Intel Core i3
Intel Core i3 merupakan varian paling value dibandingkan dua saudaranya yang lain. Processor ini akan mengintegrasikan GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) alias Graphics On-board didalam processornya. Kemampuan grafisnya diklaim sama dengan Intel GMA pada chipset G45. Selain itu Core i3 nantinya menggunakan manufaktur hybrid, inti processor dengan 32nm, sedangkan memory controller/graphics menggunakan 45nm. Code produk Core i3 adalah “Arrandale”.

MillatFacebook: Facebook Islam Untuk Semua

Bermula 19 Mei lalu, Mahkamah Pakistan telah mengharamkan Facebook di Pakistan sehingga 31 Mei sebagai bantahan kepada satu page di Facebook iaitu “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day” atau dalam bahasa Melayunya Hari Melukis Nabi Muhammad. Aktiviti yang diadakan pada 20 Mei lalu di Facebook telah menimbulkan kemarahan penduduk Islam di seluruh dunia kerana menghina Islam dan Nabi Muhammad.

Jika Mark Zuckerberg boleh berbangga dengan kejayaan laman sosial Facebook ciptaannya, Omer Zaheer Meer juga bakal menjejaki langkah Mark dengan penciptaan laman Facebook Islam iaitu MillatFacebook. MillatFacebook hampir menyerupai Facebook dari segi designnya, namun itu bukanlah persoalannya. Mungkin MillatFacebook ini sebagai laman sosial alternatif untuk umat Islam dan memboikot Facebook. Tidak mustahil dengan kehadiran MillatFacebook ini mampu memberi impak kepada Facebook. Sama-sama kita nantikan. Jika anda berminat, bolehlah mendaftarkan diri di MillatFacebook: http://www.millatfacebook.com.
“MillatFacebook helps you connect and share with more than 1.57 Billion Muslims and Sweet people from other Religions.”
MillatFacebook dengan singkatan MFB, seperti juga FB bagi Facebook, pengasasnya berkata, pakar IT kini berusaha memasukkan ciri-ciri lain ke dalamnya bagi mencabar pesaing dari California itu. Setiap ahli memiliki ‘Wall’ untuk ulasan sahabat selain mengandungi kemudahan emel, foto, video, ruang sembang dan perbincangan. Perkataan ‘Millat’ adalah bahasa Urdu yang biasa digunakan untuk merujuk kepada negara.
Keburukan penggunaan Facebook ialah dari segi privasi. Facebook sesuka hati mendedahkan maklumat peribadi pengguna seperti nama, umur, tempat tinggal dan pekerjaan kepada advertisers (pengiklan-pengiklan). Facebook juga banyak meraih keuntungan melalui iklan-iklan di Facebook. Jika tidak mahu duit dilaburkan kepada pihak Yahudi, sama-sama lah kita sokong MillatFacebook yang dicipta bagi memenuhi keperluan sosial orang Islam terutamanya di Pakistan.

Facebook lebih banyak mendatangkan keburukan berbanding kebaikan jika disalahgunakan. Saya sendiri dah join MillatFacebook. Boleh tahan la, lebih kurang macam Facebook je. Sekarang ni, MillatFacebook sedang upgrade server kerana penggunanya kini mencecah 90,000 orang dalam masa beberapa hari je!

======================================================================
Masih ingatkan anda tentang artikel mengenai MillatFacebook di blog Oh Malaysia baru-baru ini? Rupa-rupanya impak MillatFacebook sangat besar sehinggakan pengasas Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg tak senang duduk sekarang ni. MillatFacebook yang berubah wajah kini menunjukkan prestasi yang memberangsangkan. Jika Mark Zuckerberg mengambil masa bertahun-tahun lamanya untuk menyiapkan prototaip dan melancarkan Facebook, orang Pakistan hanya mengambil masa beberapa hari sebelum MillatFacebook dilancarkan secara global.
Dalam masa 11 hari, seramai 268,000 orang telah menyertai MillatFacebook berbanding hanya 3,000 orang yang menyertai Facebook pada bulan pertama dilancarkan. Pada 9 Jun 2010, ranking Alexa MillatFacebook melonjak ke tangga 21,488 untuk ranking global. Facebook pula mengambil masa selama 6 tahun untuk meraih populariti dunia.
Kesan MillatFacebook terhadap Facebook
Penggunaan Facebook meningkat sebanyak 10.24% untuk 3 bulan lepas. Selepas Facebook mempertahankan dan meneruskan “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day” dan pelancaran MillatFacebook, pengguna Facebook berkurang sebanyak 2.32% bulan lalu. Dengan peningkatan populariti MillatFacebook, pertumbuhan Facebook menurun sebanyak 0.5% dalam masa 7 hari lepas. Dijangkakan, Facebook akan kehilangan 10% pengguna atau sebanyak 40 juta orang daripada 400 juta pengguna Facebook.
Cubaan Facebook menggagalkan MillatFacebook
  • Serangan DDOS secara berterusan ke atas MillatFacebook (termasuk menggunakan IP Israel dan CIA).
  • Subversion Attacks ke atas MillatFacebook.
  • Ugutan peribadi terhadap pihak pengurusan MillatFacebook.
  • Berkomplot dengan Yahoo di mana Yahoo menghentikan penghantaran email-email yang berkaitan dengan MillatFacebook.
  • Yahoo Mail menyekat email MillatFacebook dan menyatakan “your website contain offensive content”.
MillatFacebook dalam usaha meningkatkan kelajuan pelayaran laman sosial itu dan akan berpindah ke server baru iaitu BoonEx:Dolphin, Russia. Sila kongsikan artikel ini dengan rakan-rakan di Facebook dan Twitter supaya lebih ramai lagi yang beralih kepada MillatFacebook: laman sosial milik orang Islam. Kalau malas sangat, boleh ‘Like’ je.

Nokia N8 vs iPhone 4 – Ten Things Why Nokia N8 Is Better

First of all, let’s face the inconvenient truth that there is no perfect smartphone in this planet, but still we could consider that there is one smartest out there. Both Nokia N8 and iPhone 4 are candidates, so we will see if which part of my lists does Nokia N8 really standout against iPhone 4.


Checkout Nokia N8 vs iPhone 4 Camera comparison

Checkout Nokia N8 vs Apple iPhone Gaming
Price
One of the biggest advantage of Nokia N8 over the iPhone 4 is the price. With the price tag of €370 euros before taxes and subsidies, and converting it to pounds would give us £300. Comparing to the iPhone 4 (unlocked) 16GB with a price of £499 and £599 for 32GB. Therefore making the Nokia N8 much cheaper for a smartphone with cool multimedia features and especially Symbian^3 os.
Design
We admit that the iPhone 4 is slimmer, but there are consequences on this, like on the camera performance e.g. zooming and sensor size. For the color variants of Nokia N8, the mass is already have a wide choice for their taste on the color. There are currently 5 anodized casing  for N8 the dark grey, silver white, green, blue and orange For the iPhone 4, there are two the white and the black (no pun intended) and obviously I don’t like that my phone is mistakenly identified by others as an iPhone 3GS or iPod touch.
Video Call
The limitations of Apple facetime for the Wi-Fi connection and iPhone to iPhone is what Nokia already solved and made possible long time ago to their devices. So in N8 you will not be bounded by connections and you will get connected for the video calls in any capable devices.
HDMI + Dolby Surround
Another one few specs that a 2010 smartphone have is the HDMI connection where you can connect to your home theatre. With HD TV you will get a crisp and clear visual treatment as well as with your sound with the Dolby Digital Plus.
Memory
The Nokia N8 has a 16GB internal storage plus giving you a chance to add an external hot swappable microSD card up to 32GB.
USB On-the-Go
If 48GB of storage is not enough for you then consider this USB on-the-go feature where you can read and make slave USB sticks from external hard drive like on this 250GB hdd.
Usability (Reception issue)
If you’re afraid to get a bad reception just because of the phone’s inability to not allow you to have a proper grip, well, isn’t that obvious that this could be one of the biggest mistake that Cupertino company made? Eventhough Nokia N8 isn’t launched yet, we all know that this Finnish giant have more than 1 billion of devices out there and we never have the incidents where people protests just because of the reception issue.

Sensor
To have the biggest camera sensor in the field of camera phones—and even bigger than the other p&s cameras—means that we are having the right innovations. By the size of the N8 and to its one of a kind features, it really shows that this is an advance feature that Nokia N8 will hold against competitors.
Xenon flash
It is still a strong advert of manufacturers that LED flash can provide you enough light for taking pictures. But it is still a fact that xenon flash are the one who leads in the technology of flash for compact cameras as well as to mobile phones. What Nokia did is they reduced the size of the flash to 30% less compare to Nokia N82 & without losing the power.

Editing software & Ovi Maps are free (Symbian^3)
If you’re phone has an HD capable video recording and Symbian^3 on N8 has an on-board video editor and without pulling some extra bucks from your pocket, of course. The same on Ovi Maps, neither we need a connection nor we would pay for it. That is really the magic of Nokia, bringing us connected anywhere and anytime.
Obviously, we are not biased on posting articles nor we are against iPhone 4 to prove if just check Norman’s article about reasons why he shouldn’t wait for Nokia N8.
