Better ram management.

The stupid log files are gone ,had to delete them every few days.

I had some stupid bugs which seems to be fixed ,when opened a whatsapp pic ,whatsapp would just freeze sometimes.

Thanks. Note 2 is getting a little bit long in the tooth. Are they all dual sim or only specific ones...? Also is anyone actually using that functionality...?

 

[Sinbad]

Only specific ones.
I have a dual sim but I'm using the slot for an SD card

How would you know which are the dual sim ones(or which provider sells them)..?

 

[Sinbad]

They have different model numbers.
Gra-ul00 is the p8 dual

Gra-ul00 is the p8 dual

Thanks..! Will have a look out for that then. Telkom Mob seem to have the best "contract" pricing currently.

Hi guys. So my galaxy s4 is feeling dated now. I went to Edgar's to see the phones they have. P8lite is best bang for buck phone they have. Plan to use my Edgar's account to get it and pay over 6months interest free.

Question. Is the p8 much better? I looked at gsmarena and from that I understand that p8lite is octa core and p8 is two quad cores. Is the p8lite a good buy considering that I currently have a s4?

Yes it is. In my opinion, the P8 Lite is snappier... I'd take it over an S4

Considering the P9 & P9 Lite are 3 weeks away and a bit, you might as well wait for them to launch.

How long will it take to arrive here though? I'd recommend waiting if not in a rush though

Price on P8 and P8lite will drop when 9 is launched, so probably better to wait in any event.

True

Shot. Thanks guys. Yeah I will wait a bit. If p9 lite is not very expensive I will get that.

In your opinions is the P8 P8lite better? I want to get one, instead of upgrading my contract I can just get the sim only deals and save on the handset fees every month
