    Pricing finally leaving me behind?

    I'd never buy the reg Note 20. The ultra needs to be $1200 or under to be considered at this point. If the current rumors are true, it far exceeds the price of the S20 Ultra. I wouldn't pay $1400 for a phone. OnePlus 8 Pro is $900-$1000, depending on the storage. Apple is releasing 4 iPhone...

    Why Google’s Android updates are overrated for Samsung phones now.

    I like Samsung UI much better. Stock Android is much too Vanilla for me. Samsung gets many features before Pixels & has some that other phones never get at all.

    I have my first Samsung, a Note 9. I got it in August 2018. Security patches have been fairly timely this year as opposed to last. But it took forever to get the Android 10 update.

    Note 9 users what is your next phone upgrade plan

    I get my phone's through Verizon & 2020 is my upgrade year. I'll definitely be moving on. I love my phone, but I get bored. I'm gonna try to wait till Thanksgiving sales. This year the new S10s & Notes came with a $400 gift card. I think that's worth the 3 month wait. I can't go sub-par...

    Not only not moving on but getting another V20

    I had the V20 before my Note 9. What a boring phone! Stellar audio quality, but boring nonetheless. Horrible on updates. Removable battery that the LG store never sold, even after I had my phone 2 years. After having a Samsung I couldn't go back to LG; not even for the superior audio, which I...

    Battery % in NEW Note 7 Battery % in NEW Note 7

    If I buy a NEW Note 7, will the battery be limited to a 60% charge, or is that just for the replacement ones?
