    S7 edge Battery life

    Re: S7 edge Battery life is very good It's got to learn your usage patterns. When I first got my S6 it use to say the same, 11 months later and it gives me and average of 37-40 hours based on my usage.

    Galaxy S6, 1 yr later

    1. Hasn't been a year yet. 2. We don't know your setup or what you do with your phone so... 3. Only thing I've run into is the reloading apps (which really hasn't been an issue for me) 4. Have you done any factory resets or reflashed the firmware lately?

    Don't even think about upgrading to Windows 10

    Sorry to keep echoing this, but using windows 10 and MusicBee to sync music to my S6 has been smooth sailing here.

    Bye iPhone Hello S6

    Not without root my friend. Samsung did add some new ones in their 6.0.1 build.

    S6 camera app

    This is not correct. The newer Samsung panels have some of the best viewing angle even in direct sunlight especially due to the super brightness mode which kicks up the brightness to over 1000 nits (at the cost of color accuracy). OP make sure you leave auto brightness on as that's the only way...

    Everything is so friggin complicated...

    Why are you over-complicating things? There is no need to turn off WiFi when you leave home. I've never had battery problems with just letting the phone manage WiFi on any Android device. I don't even believe Apple devices allow you to do what you're suggesting. And for whatever reason, all you...

    iPhone 5S vs. Samsung Galaxy S6 - What to buy?

    I've had my S6 for 7 months now and have never had issues with lag or slowdown ever. This phone is still blazing fast. I notice on this AC that people's experience will differ based on setup, but I use mine mainly for reddit, Web browsing (the stock browser is the smoothest I've used on any...

    Getting texts via Bluetooth

    I just use Svoice. I say "Hey Jarvis, voice search (brings up Google voice search instantly), read my last text message". Then I dictate a message back, completely hands free.

    Some honest advice - torn between the s6 and htc m9

    I have a 32 GB S6 and haven't had a problem with storage. I use Google Play music to store my 5700+ songs and Google Photos to hold all my pictures, plus I have asphalt 8 and a snes and gba emulator with several games. Still have over 15GB of space left. The S6 also has a wolfstein DAC and...

    S6, still your favourite? It is mine!

    Those of you with poor battery life, are you heavy users of Google Now and location history? Those have been my two biggest battery killers every time I use them. With them off, I've always gotten no less than 24 hours of battery life with up to 5 hrs SOT to. It's been consistent too. No...

    Battery Life is despicable

    There is no need to get another phone, but you have a definite hardware issue, particularly battery issues. Even playing Asphalt 8 for 4 hours straight I can't kill my S6 battery. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

    Samsung Pay

    Both Android Pay and Samsung Pay use tokenization with virtual cards. You can add more cards to Android Pay at the moment, but not all are fully supported requiring you to enter a secondary authorization PIN and you may not get proper rewards or points. I took that directly from Android Central

    Have been using Samsung Pay for a week

    You always have to enter a PIN for debit cards. That will not change now matter what payment system or terminal you go to. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk
