the projector projects everything on screen or only selected stuff like photos/videos?

 

[RipperJack]

ok, found a 720p mkv file.


later when the beam fully charged liao, ripper go and test

the system doesn't recognise mkv files

so i changed the extension to avi
afterwhich, the system managed to grab a thumbnail from the movie file.

however, when i click on it, it says file type not supported

 

[RipperJack]

ripper so what's the gift certificate about?

at first i wanted to buy this but after trying the demo, my heart going back to sgs or nexus...

a peekture is worth a hundred words, quite literally

the shutter lag is quite terrible. very slow
can't samsung just get it right?

 

[RipperJack]

[kennyboy]

WYSIWYG

Good...that mean alternative video players will work as well.

 

[RipperJack]

wah...more test to feedback k? video playback and browsing is my top 2 priority.

video playback u wun be disappointed la


browsing so far so good.
but sometimes webpages fail to load
however, i think this is telco problem

yeah, ripper haven't had chance to experiment with the apps yet.
this one have to count on you laojiao guys for expertise


so far, after installing ATK, the lag problem has largely gone away. no longer very lag. but occasional slight lag still exist. it's very bearable now

however, what disturb me is tt, after activating the ATK widget, the amount of memory available continues to shrink over time how to solve this?

 

[RipperJack]

definitely, now ripper must start looking thru the recommended apps threads liao

 

[RipperJack]

oh yeah. the video taken is very crisp and sharp
nice

For now set ATK to kill apps everytime screen is locked. That will make sure that most errant apps are closed everytime u wanna use the phone.

But once Beam is rooted, install apps like autokiller or minfreemanger. Those set the memory management of Android to be more strict, makes the phone much faster.

ripper managed to squeeze out some time in the morning to go to PS for the launch and see see look look, in the end, bought the Beam on impulse


the Beam is on launch promotion offer, so it's $50 cheaper.

tried the beam at starhub ps....not too impressed by the phone...feels a slight bit laggy + screen not as good compared to galaxy s.

isnt it the same screen lol?

 

[Dyles]

Ripper gonna start your own official beam thread? lol

 

[tnatna]

yeah but maybe the size and the processor makes a difference.

isnt it the same screen lol?
