    I still believe that the overall quality of apps on the iPhone is better. So if Apple can beat Samsnug's design and features then yes, I would consider switching back.

    I bumped up the res to QHD+ and I think it makes a difference in the clarity of text. Still settling into battery life so will experiment going doing at some time

    Scratch that- a restart fixed it. Although you can't have it listen when the screen is off.

    So this is strange- I tried this and it didn't work. But I cannot get this to work even when I'm in the Google Now app. I know for sure that voice was working on day 1 in the Google app but now, unless I manually hit the mic on the search, its not working. I've checked settings and Voice is...

    Exynos. Still too early to tell on battery life. Have spent yesterday and today setting it up, downloading apps, syncing music and pictures and everything else. Can hopefully give you a better indication in the next couple of days.
