    Bigger higher resolution screen
    More powerful processor
    Android ICS upgrade in the works (literally a few weeks at this rate but availble unoficially)
    More internal memory.
    Tbh it actually pisses over a lot of much higher priced phones. Only the camera lets it down apparently (useable but not the best)

    Thank you!:) I wouldn't be too bothered about the camera tbh, I already have a camera so it's not essential in a phone!

    Double post...meh:pac:

    Was having a gander at the Latest Purchases thread when I came across this by wnolan...



    Is the Galaxy Mini really that bad? I was planning on buying it just cos I want an android phone, but can't afford to break the bank:P

    Please advise:(

    Oop almost missed this, DON'T GET THE GALAXY MINI. It's the worst phone I've ever had, and I've had some really shitty phones


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 7,849 Mod ✭✭✭✭suitcasepink

    Only annoyance is how short the battery life is but Im sure thats a problem for loadsa phones...

    I used to have to charge it nearly twice a day some days depending on what I'd been doing (Wifi, calls, extra bright screen eat the crap out of). But yeah, most smartphones' battery life is pretty dismal. Kinda makes me yearn for my old Nokia 6300 which I only had to charge every five days. :(


    Out of curiosity, is the Mini your first Android phone? (Would explain why you think you love it :pac:)

    • Being able to change message skins in your inbox is a feature I miss on my new phone.

    Did NOT know this was possible!! <3 you.

    I love my mini! It has a few tunes, sends texts and emails, does the job.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    Unfortunately I only had a slice as it was a going away present for someone but my god that slice was delicious. I don't know why I never thought of an oreo base before but it is so wonderful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,572 ✭✭✭Canard


    Anyone ever had chocolate tiramisu? You put chocolate in instead of coffee, my amazing cook friend made it once - that, ladies and gentlemen, is the definition of delicious. :P

    Pigwidgeon,
    I'm hungry. I'm very hungry. The last thing I ate was a snack at around 5. When I opened this thread, I was just thinking that I'd love some biscuit cake or maybe a chocolate muffin - whatever. Then you go and post that phenomenon. How could you do this?! I'm very disappointed.

    nom :(

    Jamjamjamjam

    (Even my username looks tasty... Why is there only bread in this house!!)

    I feel your pain, I don't even have the ingredients for cake in a mug right now. Unless I make one without chocolate. Hmm...

    So it makes a really tiny quantity, doesn't resemble a proper brownie in any way and I had to use chocolate ovaltine powder instead of cocoa, but this is actually quite nice...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭jefreywithonef


    The ice cream in that photo kinda resembles a dog (one without eyes and sitting down, and on a brownie).

    Just remembered that there's a free section on adverts...why would anyone want a broken DVD player though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    Downloaded a loop button for Youtube today..... Probably one of the 'Insert word of regret here!' downloads i have downloaded.... just like apps, this is my life, wasting it on youtube... as if it wasnt bad enough i can loop everything.. :rolleyes:

    Least its going to good work hours of theme tunes looping

    Could salvage parts from it. By "broken" they probably mean the laser is kapputt, but you'd probably get a perfectly serviceable tray mechanism, a SCART input socket, as well as a power cable or a plug with fuse. (Plugs cost money like, so if you got it for free how bad!)

    Though I did see someone trying to get rid of a used mattress... I can only hope that I'm never so poor that I have to get my mattress used and for free....

    You can just type repeat into the URL between "youtube" and ".com" and it'll loop.

    Want 24 channels of Olympicy goodness?

    It just dawned on me that this might be more appropriate in the sports or TV thread...

    I have spent the last week watching highlights and interviews from Beijing...I LOVE the Olympics! :D

    I can't wait to be over there, I love how much of a buzz there is in London most of the time anyway, its going to be crazy next week!

    You're going?? :eek: So jealous...did you get tickets for any event?

    I too am a bit of an Olympics fanatic, haven't checked out these crazy new channels yet (I haven't watched TV in over a week, what the-...) but I'm excited nonetheless.

    There's nothing on the channels until Saturday. (Well, the opening Ceremony is on BBCO1, but I'm watching the Ceremony on RTE if they're showing it just 'cos BBC commentary in general gets on my tits a bit.)

    I was planning on going to London this summer anyway so I just had to make sure it coincided with the Olympics :D I haven't got any tickets but when I'm over there I'll see if I can get any. Can only imagine how many fake ones will be flying around but I might get lucky!

    I just can't wait for the atmosphere, there'll be big screens in Trafalgar Square etc so I don't mind watching stuff there, and I'm definitely going to go out to where all the stadiums are for a look!

    I love London. It is definitely a place I could see myself living in the future :)

    That is indeed one of many things on my ever-increasing bucket list. It will happen though, most definitely, even if only or a year or two. Woop, bring on the future!
