    GTX 980M worth compared to GTX 970M?

    I have been looking up some laptops lately, and what I have seen, GTX 980M graphics card laptops are usually around $250-$300s more than GTX 970M counter parts. I am planning to play games on 1080p. Is it worth the extra cost to upgrade to 980M? I want to know your opinion. Thanks.

    My phone does not have an HD display, but it can still play 720p videos. Why is that?

    Playing videos that is higher than the device's display resolution will not damage the phone. As long as the phone supports the video file, it will play. About lag, most smartphones nowdays should play 1080p videos, doesn't really take that much processing power. If you are taking about very...

    When to use SD card memory vs internal memory in a smartphone?

    Basically put everything else besides apps on the SD card. Mostly photos, videos, and musics like Snipergod said, or other stuff such as documents or things you don't need. Don't install apps on the SD card, plus I don't even think lots of phones can do that anyway (with the exception of rooted...

    AT&T used/2nd hand samsung?

    Looking at the pictures of the Galaxy S3 provided on the link, they are T-Mobile/AT&T versions of Galaxy S3. Both phones uses micro SIM card. So it will work if you plug in a SIM card to it, assuming that the device is unlocked. For 2G connectivity, both phones will work. For 3G/4G though, it...

    Should i update my GS4 to JB 4.3?

    I have my Galaxy S3 updated to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean (SGH-T999, T-Mobile version). I don't really see a problem with it, but lots of people are having lots of complains on the update based on Galaxy S3 and S4 users. Well Android 4.4 Kitkat should be in the corner for you Galaxy S4 users, if you...

    Lumia 520 or a different phone at £100?

    Ah I understand. I don't really know other good phones that is around 100 euros, since I live in the US. What about the Moto G? Might want to search that up as well.

    Lumia 520 or a different phone at £100?

    I never tried the Lumia 800 so I don't know how is it like. But my dad has a Lumia 521 though (just the T-Mobile version of the Lumia 520, really), I have to say it's nice, especially for the money. It's got a dual core 1Ghz CPU, 512MB RAM, and Adreno 305 graphics (which those specs are...

    Good phone: 1) with permanent internet/Skype 2) rugged, ideal for travel/hiking/outdoors

    First of all, it's not just the phone that it includes permanently online option, it just depends on the app. You can go ahead and get an android smartphone, download the skype app, and make it online all the time. I am pretty sure it have that option. I don't use skype as much, so I don't know...

    galaxy s4 micro sd help

    Well if you have the money, get the 32GB (pricing isn't that much from a 16GB card anyway). Taking videos on the S4 will take lots of space. You probably would expect something like 1MB/sec. And pictures should be around 2-3MB each. As for the branding, well I don't really think it matters, as...

    External battery explanation please

    Asides from above, you do have to realize that external batteries are only about 70-80% efficient (heat, voltage conversation, etc. while charging your device), like a typical PSU on a computer. I have an external battery charger, and I notice that. So if you have a 4000mAh external battery, it...

    Need smartphone under 250 euros (~300USD)

    I don't think iPhones would be in your pricing range, unless you want a used phone, or a older version of iPhones. The Moto G is nice. I recommend it also. It's got a Snapdragon 400, a 1.2Ghz quad core, with Adreno 305 graphics. Plus it's a got a 5mp camera that is able to record at 720p (which...
