    Decided to give SnapCamera HD a try.

    Lollipop is Finally out for the Note 4 !!!!!!!!!!!!

    I held back updating my Nexus 10, and I am very glad that I did. After actually getting my hands on a Nexus 7 with Lollipop, I have decided to keep Kitkat on my Nexus 10 indefinitely. I am already reading a few complaints about the European Note 4 running Lollipop, namely with the lack of a mute...

    Is the Note 4 best smartphone in the market?

    It's good enough that any person in need of a powerful phone that can help them develop apps, be productive, and multitask their daily activities will not be disappointed. For most people, the Note 4 is overkill. It's like driving a Corvette when a Cruze would be 10x more logical. With that...

    Note 4 Camera Pictures! Got one? We would love to see it.

    Thanks! Will do. Thanks for the suggestion. I am also looking into getting a portable tripod/stabilizer. Any suggestions?

    Note 4 Camera Pictures! Got one? We would love to see it.

    I have yet to achieve a high level of clarity, but so far it has been a solid experience. Puts my HTC One to shame. My only concern is that it seems to struggle, however mildly, with focusing. It's picky. And I get some blurry shots even in bright daylight.

    Before I give, need advice about how to tackle this defective cam.

    Over 1500 views and 0 replies tells me the odds were never that good. After HTC being somewhat inconsistent, and Sprint telling me a replacement was a maybe, I decided to go to the Sprint store. Well, they ended up telling me that my phone was way too old to just replace. They admitted it was a...

    I love snug-fitting cases, but I hear most scratch the metal rim on the Note 4?

    I had a snug case for my HTC Evo and my HTC One. Now, with the Note 4, protection is more important than ever. This is not a cheap phone, and man do I want it to last for years. I am really, really liking it thus far. Went to order either a Spigen or Caseology Slim, only to come across a lot of...

    Note 4 camera and moving objects (i.e. kids)

    A testament to how bad my photos are. Here are samples from my HTC One M7: 1) Close shot of a pillow in low light 2) This is the least amount of blur I could achieve. Purple haze still present in low light. 3) Focusing with the M7 is a battle. I had my phone resting on a freaking tripod...

    Note 4 camera and moving objects (i.e. kids)

    I have to admit, this thread has made me second guess getting a Note 4. I currently have an HTC One M7, and having it has taught me how much I want a good camera. The camera on the M7 is atrocious. I have myriad presets that I cycle through, and no amount of practice has yielded consistently...

    Before I give, need advice about how to tackle this defective cam.

    My One is about a year and 8 months old. The purple tint/stripes on my photos has just gotten worse and worse. I've come across many accounts of people going to Sprint and swapping for a free, albeit refurbished, replacement. I've even read accounts of people claiming they were given an M8...

    Purple Tint/ Thermal Defect

    Was your One less than a year old? Between Sprint's live chat, calling the local store, and now their Twitter support account, I've been told 3 different things. When I went the route of mentioning the prevalence of this defect and citation of accounts where people walked into a Sprint store and...

    HTC One: Here's the SKINNY on the infamous PURPLE TINT (thermal defect)

    To those who took their phones to Sprint and received an exchange - exactly what procedure did you follow? I've spoken with Sprint, and I've been told that my phone cannot be exchanged. They told me the warranty is up and that it's not their fault/problem. One support agent even told me that...

    The Nexus 7 was discontinued today

    I should have gotten one for an xmas gift when best buy had the 16GB for under $180. They're now up to almost $220. I have a feeling the price will increase as supplies run low.

    Is the Nexus 10 worth picking up still?

    I was one of the "dreaming of a Nexus 10 update" crowd. The idea of an improved N10 had me drooling, which itself says how I feel about the original. When the time came, bearing in mind that I am not an early adopter, I had to fight the urge to pre-order a Nexus 9. I am very glad that I didn't...

    So.. I'm returning my N9

    Between two original 7s, and one 2013 edition, I have never seen light bleeding or screen lifting on a 7. The Nexus 10, though? Don't get me started. I returned enough 10s to generate a black market in some part of the world. The one I settled with still has noticeable bleed in the bottom-right...
