Day 1: I wonder if I can go full Android for a week?

My current main device is a 32Gb iPhone 5S. Mostly I have relegated Android OS for my secondary device (for work or just to mess around with the OS) and usually I get the cheap low spec devices. My past Android device history shows this.

  1. HTC Hero
  2. HTC ChaCha
  3. Samsung Galaxy Pocket
  4. Samsung Galaxy S Duos
  5. Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2
  6. Xiao Mi Mi3W - current

Since [Xiao Mi Philippines] was offering their Mi3W at a very affordable price I decided to get one. The Mi3W is not a low-spec device [mi.com] the specs are actually pretty good. It has KitKat and MIUI which is the skin from Xiao Mi.

Now with the rumors that Apple will finally be releasing a bigger screen iPhone I think this is a good time to start getting used to a wider device. I must admit that I am not comfortable holding the Mi3W and I rely heavily on Keeep (full-disclosure I sell Keeep) to handle the larger device. Text input is also done with two hands instead of one, which is not ideal.

Before I start this experiment. I need to take care of a few things....
Right now I have the Mi3W setup as my work phone, I am thinking of reformatting it and starting it fresh as a personal phone with my main SMART line. Since, I had already reformatted my Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2, I would have to set it up again as my work phone. Bah...

Medyo nakakatamad... but I think I should do it, I just hope it doesn't eat too much of my Diablo 3 time. ;-)

Coron Labor Day Weekend Getaway

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau.
