    Hi there this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use
    WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.

    I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience.
    Any help would be enormously appreciated!

    i agree with those who commented before me, parang mas malala ung naging curve para san ba ang curve?? mas ok pa ung mga nabasa ko sa article ng LG G2 awesome specs and its very interesting lalo na ung rear key button nila.

  3. Avatar for like like says:

    According to a related article posted here, the Galaxy Round is only released for the South Korean market so don’t expect these to be sold at SRP here in the Philippines.

    Actually, the Galaxy Round isn’t as round or curved as some of you might think. It makes the phone much more manageable for one handed use because the screen is curved, thus making the width much narrower compared to other similarly sized screens.

    My guess is that they released this phone just to demonstrate their superior lcd technology and impressive hardware configuration. It’s not meant to replace their Galaxy S / Note lineup.

      Tomoh… dami kc d2 putak ng putak kala mo may pangbili. di naman cla pinipilit na bilhin. kung ayaw nyo wag nyong bilhin. tapos!

      Well, the target market explains the need for the curved screen – pang-singkit!

      tugudugtshhh :D

      LAME EXCUSE. TRULY A HUGE SAMSUNG FAN. STUPE.

      To boy Genuis

      Actually the last Samsung smartphone I bought was the Galaxy i7500. Sold it 3 months after I bought it last 2010. So calling me a fan boy of a brand that I don’t even like is really “genius”.

      Are you even aware that Samsung manufactures LCDs, RAM, flash memory, not only for their own products but for other brands as well? Brands such as Sony, Apple and Dell.

      And please do tell if there’s a smartphone out there that is faster than this one? We’re not talking about the price, just the hardware configuration.

      Konting research din pag may time.

    • Avatar for Genuis Genuis says:

      @someone: Another lame excuse. That’s what Samsung users do bickering on other brands and praising Samsung’s stupe innovation and eventually claims not a Samsung user. Why? Para sabihing pati ibang brand users bilib sa Samsung? LAME.

      And yes, I am very much aware they supply materials for most major tech brands. Why? Because, business wise, it is better to outsource than invest in billions of dollars in research and facilities just to develop a particular material. Apple can make their own raw materials better BUT not a good move for business purposes. Samsung and Apple survive through income. Besides, while is Apple more superior when in fact Samsung has been in the tech industry for many decades than Apple. Shame.

      RESEARCH and ISIP din pag may UTAK and TIME.

    Unboxing of a stupid and nonsense innovation. Samsung. Iyan ang tunay na overpriced! Walang kwenta.

    There’s an article posted about iPhone to bend when placed inside your pocket. Ito naman nakabend na. Samsung talaga ang kulit :P

    1st ~ Samsung :)

    nah, get NOTE3 instead

  15. Avatar for Sharingan_yeah Sharingan_yeah says:

    Que Horreur ang price niyan pagdating sa ‘Pinas. Pano kaya yung case niyan? Naka curve din? Or yung leather case niyan? Ano bang benefit ng naka-bend yung screen? Para kapag nilagay mo sa dashboard ng kotse nio, uuga-uga din? Ano ba!!?? Baaakeeeeeet???

    • Avatar for Phillip Phillip says:

      Ahahaha! Kulit ng comment :)

    • Avatar for yify yify says:

      opinion ko lang, imagine kung yang technology na yan ay ilalagay sa tv, sarap siguro manuod dun. tapos pag nahulog phone mo sa flat surface di tatama agad ung screen, well tatama pa rin pero naka curve so i guess not directly, tapos pag nilagay mo sa bulsa sa likod, sakto sa pwet haha

    • Avatar for Joseph Joseph says:

      unbreakable ung screen, mas magaan, other than that wala na hehehe

      Haha.. ang kulit nga ng comment.. “Baaakeeeeeet???” -malay nameeenn! Haha..

      Mukhang novelty segment ang bagsak nito… ano bang klaseng app ang mamaximize ang isang curved screen? Wala ako maisip.. hand gestures? Ah ewan… Hintayin ko na lang Nexus 5.

    • Avatar for Lemuel Lemuel says:

      Samsung needed to make the phone curved to make it more convincing that P44,000 is worth every penny. In short ang bibili stupido and tanga.

    • Avatar for Sharingan_yeah Sharingan_yeah says:

      Baka pwede ding idikit sa braso mo kapag malagkit ang balat mo, kakapit at sakto ung curved screen nia, plug-in mo ung headset at tsaka ka mag jogging. Hahaha

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      tingin ko benefit lang nito eh makakagamit ka ng isang phablet-sized phone gamit lang ang isang kamay…pero di parin reasonable ang price para sakin lol magtitiis na lng ako sa 5-inch mas mura pa…pede rin pla to sa mga taong gustong gusto ipagyabang ang phone nila, imagine curved ang phone mo hahahaha!

      Anong pagmamaganda yan Samsung?
      Paki-explain. Lab u!

    • Avatar for Sharingan_yeah Sharingan_yeah says:

      Sa totoo lang, mas pinalakpakan ko pa yung transparent na screen ng lenovo. Nakalimutan ko yung model.

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @Sharingan_yeah mas okay na sakin tong galaxy round kaysa sa transparent screen,hahaha wala namang problema tong phone na to at all ung price lng talaga ang transparent screen di mo maeenjoy ang true colors dahil magdedepende yan sa amount ng ilaw sa paligid if im not mistaken

    • Avatar for lalala lalala says:

      ginawa lang to ng samsung para masabing sila ang nauna sa curved screen.lol :D

    • Avatar for mangekyo mangekyo says:
