Samsung flash memory on the Galaxy S4: We are considering the possibility ... - PCLab.pl

Less than three weeks ago we wrote about that the cheapest version of the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4, equipped with 16 GB of flash memory for user leaves just a little more than half. Over 45% of the capacity is used Android operating system (albeit in a very small part), as well as additional software Samsung. The user has at his disposal only 8.82 GB of space specified by the manufacturer, or 16 GB.

matter of course for the other two versions of the Galaxy S4, the flash memory 32 or 64 GB, but in the case of loss of a little over 7 GB is not as noticeable, but will also need to look at. It should be noted, however, that in some markets is only a 16-gigabyte version.

Parts

consumers do not like the thing from the beginning. Among the British owners of smartphones Galaxy S4 there were those who contacted the team broadcast on BBC One program Watchdog, which deals with what matters to consumers. Viewers were urged to investigate the matter, and after asking Samsung to give specific claims. The reportage prepared by the watchdog, the team directly pointed the finger so. “Bloatware”, and so the excess additional software that consumes too much flash memory the cheapest version of the Galaxy S4.

Interestingly, none of the Samsung did not want to take part in the implementation of reportage. The British branch of Samsung in relation to the difference between the declared by the manufacturer of flash memory capacity, and much less the actual (user accessible), said only that “appreciates raise this issue and intends to examine the question of communication with consumers about future products.” The program appeared Jason Jenkins of CNET UK edition, which presented the correct argument by stating that this is a problem all over the market. “

Actually it is a matter which concerns not only smartphones, but also tablets, desktops, laptops and chcia?by same drive that capacity declared on the packaging or in the shop offers differ from the actual space the files. For all personal computers (including tablets) problems combine, on the one hand of the manufacturer disk capacity that is actually smaller, and also from the smaller, so you still need to subtract the space taken up by the operating system. In some cases, when we are dealing with a pure system, the latter problem can be rather confidently shrugged off. Unless we start to think about the “zasobo?erno?ci?” disk operating system-specific. Everything looks completely different when a laptop or tablet, in addition to the operating system sometimes have “tons” of additional applications, games and other add-on software. Sometimes it can be uninstalled, but never sure whether you leave behind in the system and drive some garbage. In so me cases, such as tablets and smartphones, this is no longer a problem, because without the “combining” to remove them is impossible.

watchdog also noted that Samsung stubbornly recommend users to buy a microSD card, so they can create more space for your files. It happens quite arrogant response to the problem raised by the consumer as producer expects that they would pay (buying a microSD card) for his negligence. Samsung for the BBC One also said that listens to consumers and responding to their needs. He adds that “it is considering the possibility of increasing the amount of memory for users” through future software update. For the consumers respond quickly on the internet asking among other things whether Samsung is not the case at the publicity game, as increased space for user files could not be held together with the remote update OTA (Over-the-Air), I would require resizing the system partition and data. The latter can be done for instance by loading the entire system image again, but this would result in loss of all user data.

similar problem at the end of last year we reported on the case flash memory in Microsoft Surface RT tablet, where as many as 12 to 32 GB of flash memory was occupied by the operating system and application software manufacturer. Perhaps another setback, this time Samsung finally wakes up consumer awareness, and this will lead to a fair presentation of the specification.

first generation Galaxy S had a relatively easy life and work, because rivals were often late, underdeveloped or simply weaker and more expensive. Thus the first three “eski” stormed the smartphone market and odkr?ci?y cock, which sailed flow of money in the pockets of the mouth with Koreans satisfied. However idyll is over and this year the competition is much better prepared for an offensive Samsung: HTC reminded just how do phones, and Sony have noticed that sometimes people buy gadgets that cost more than 2000 z?. How the Samsung Galaxy S4 cope with this new situation?

smartphone in your pocket, tablet or laptop in the bag, “smart” TV on the wall, thousands of songs in a device smaller than a matchbox, movie rented from home, playing with a huge number of people from all over the world and Finally, a few clicks to information from all continents. First evil called computers, then called evil works gained internet. The era of digital media and the web began 20 years ago. What have we achieved? Today, a computer and a global network are no longer treated as two incarnations of evil. Their combination, however, has created new ones.

testing the Samsung Galaxy Note first, we wondered if that’s your smartphone, tablet or rather longer, and we were not able to uniquely classify. Apparently we were not alone: ??after some time, someone decided that this type of equipment worthy of a new drawer. This is how the name phablet , which is a plywood English words phone (‘phone’) and tablet . We had to come up with something, because Samsung’s experiment was a great success, which initially was not expected.

processor is the heart of your computer. When performance is not enough, not only complicated tasks are performed slowly, you can not wait any longer, for example, to open the program. Additionally, the graphics card has a decisive impact on the number of frames per second in games. Today – as the “end of the world” – present a great test of processors from AMD and Intel. Great, I were in the 160 models, each of which has been described 52 results. If added to the measurements in the settings cranked up, the total result is 12000! You will not find a larger test of processors. Which is the best for gaming? Which is the best value for its price? Which one should I buy in different price ranges
