    Problems with Galaxy S5 display: doesn't turn on, etc.

    I've tried with both and it makes no difference, still flickers at low brightness and display still doesn't turn on sometimes when the brightness is low.

    Problems with Galaxy S5 display: doesn't turn on, etc.

    I see some stuff about this, but not a lot and am wondering how common it is. When the brightness is low, when I press the power/home button the phone responds as normal, but the display doesn't turn on, sometimes there's a green flash but it stays off. And it seems to be getting worse very...

    Pixel audio disappointment

    The axon 7 is basically the only phone this year worth considering that has front facing speakers.

    Do you have a Screenshot? What gave you the notification?

    Can't decide what to do

    Yeah, refurbished from OEMs should be fine, it's the ones that are refurbished from elsewhere that are dubious. Because as you said, if the OEM is getting it refurbished then they will make sure everything is up to scratch. Good to know OEMs replace the battery, that was my main concern with...

    Would anyone be opposed to a smaller size?

    Oneplus may do it in the future, but a small company would have supply issues by diversifying their product line. You only need to look at the invite system to see what sort of problems occur when you don't have a grip on how much demand you would have, and that was with just one phone. The...

    Leaving Samsung?

    Yeah, it's because Samsung didn't optimise their SD version. And since they are going to go full exynos in 2018 they very well may not optimise the SD s8 either. The exynos one has shown to be faster and have better battery life. Although the elements of Samsung's ui that make it look less fluid...

    Is the Pixel worth an extra $250?

    Since you don't care about camera, I'd say the Oneplus 3T or HTC 10 is the best choice. With the 3T being bigger and having better battery life, and the HTC 10 having better audio. Certainly not worth paying a premium for the pixel since the two main benefits of it are the camera and the...

    OnePlus 3 T-1 - The just said "Never Settle" again. Why?

    Like I said, the PPI of the smaller pixel is only 10% higher, so I don't think there is such a big difference there that you can discretely determine that 440ppi is flagship while 400ppi is midrange. Meanwhile, the 3T has an objectively more accurate display than the pixel. The pixel's sRGB mode...

    OnePlus 3 T-1 - The just said "Never Settle" again. Why?

    Correction: The resolution is the same between the pixel and 3T The battery size on the 3T is only 50mah less than the pixel xl despite being significantly smaller. The charging solution is better on the 3T The screen to body ratio is better on the 3T. Storage options are better on the 3T, since...

    OnePlus 3 T-1 - The just said "Never Settle" again. Why?

    How is the screen objectively bad? Anandtech had said it was one of the best, and showed it to be objectively one of the best. And in terms of PPI the Google pixel is only 10% higher.

    Buyer's remorse?

    If you want bang for your Buck then you're better off with the oneplus. The only real benefits of the pixel are an extra os update (3T probably won't get android P), and the better camera (tbh in daylight they aren't even that different, 3T's camera isn't the best but is surprisingly good). If...

    AMOLED Burn In?

    I remember by galaxy nexus, which I used to play clash of clans with and left on overnight several times with the same stuff on the display. Didn't have any problem with it. If you had it at a really high brightness and kept it on the same screen for really long, then you'd probably have a...

    My "Test" PIxel XL went so well, I'm ditching my iPhone

    This is wrong, especially this year with the iPhone's Intel modems, which are so bad they had to throttle the Qualcomm ones for consistency.

    Is the Pixel line a welcome successor to the Nexus line, or would have preferred to see a new Nexus-

    I'm sorry but I don't see how anybody can sit there and claim it was designed completely by google. Everything about it looks like a htc device except the glass back and fingerprint sensor.
