    Pixel 2 Camera - is it really that good

    Keep in mind that a 128GB Pixel 2 XL is $950 which is the exact same price as a Note 8 & a 64GB card. At that price, it's hard to make excuses for Google on this one. The iPhone X and Note 8 have OIS on both lenses in that same price range and arguably more premium devices. I disagree that we...

    Pixel 2 Camera - is it really that good

    So obviously Google really but a ton of emphasis on the camera with the DXO score and portrait mode. But to me I still think they missed the boat by not including a dual camera. I understand they don't need it for imitation bokeh now but having the zoom/focal length difference is huge. Any...

    Swipe Down for Notification Shade Gesture

    This is the only reason I switched to Nova. I might have ended up there anyway but I was going to give TW a chance given it's cleaner now. But there is no way my finger can reach the notifications with 1 hand so TW lasted about an hour.

    Notifications not showing on always on Lock screen

    For some reason my notifications (texts/gmail) are not showing on the lock screen even though I have them selected to do so. It shows an icon but no preview of the message. It's like the notifications do not wake up the device. I even have these apps set to be priority notifications. I figured...

    Anyone dropped their S7 Edge and it didn't Crack??!?!?!

    My note 5 has a cracked back near the corner and I have no idea what caused it. I personally didn't drop it so either someone in my family did and didn't tell me or it was just the pressure of it in my pocket and possibly something else was in the pocket? No clue... just picked it up once and...

    Leather VS Metal

    About to pick up the watch and was going to order the black metal but after watching some reviews, I am now leaning towards the silver with black leather. Would love some comments from those of you who have them. Reasoning: I hear vibration is weak and I wear my leather watches tighter on my...

    Massive Verizon network issues with the Note 5 and VOLTE problems

    It should be any device with 1 radio...not sure if the M9 has a separate CDMA radio. Without a separate CDMA Radio, you would need to enable Advanced Calling (VOLTE) to get voice/data at the same time

    Massive Verizon network issues with the Note 5 and VOLTE problems

    I seem to be having major network related issues with the Note 5 on Verizon not present with the older Note phones. Biggest issue is in the attached image where the signal completely drops to 0 (usually indoors with the phone in my pocket) and it will refuse to reconnect to a network at...

    Still no family plan option on Google Play Music

    Trust me. I've hammered the refresh button a ton. I called Google and they said it had something to do with the fact that I was a red subscriber and the music service was just an add on for the music so it might not work since the sign up process takes place in the music app and not the youtube...
