    What are your recommendations for headphones for the V10?

    I second that about the HD700, although the crazy cord length and open design keep them from being portable. The price on Amazon for the 700 fluctuates a bit, so it's sometimes only a little more than the HD650. I was able to "buy on the dip" a couple of months ago.

    What are your recommendations for headphones for the V10?

    Pretty much whatever you like - and as others have said, full-size headphones work well because of the amp. I got a pair of Sennheiser cans and they sound terrific.

    V10 Audio Powerhouse: 32 bit Hi-Fi DAC by ESS Technology

    I wonder if there are differences between carriers that determine which apps work with the HiFi DAC. Mine is a T-Mobile, and it hasn't made a difference which app I've used (in my case, Tidal, Slacker, and Neutron). As long as I have headphones or a car aux cable plugged in, I can toggle the...

    Did you format your 200GB MicroSD card or just plug it in?

    It won't make a difference - everyone here has the same 183 GB.

    Best In Ear Headphones for V10

    I have Shure 535s with an upgraded cable (makes a big difference), and one thing that stands out with the V10 vs my earlier phones is the richer bass (actually, it sounds better all around). This is just a guess, but one thing to think about is whether the 846 would give you too much bass...

    Bluetooth Audio Quality

    I use three different devices via Bluetooth - Jaybirds, Bose Wave w/ BT adapter, and a Panasonic bookshelf system. I seem to have more trouble making the connection to the Bose than I did with my Note 3; sometimes it can take a few attempts before music will actually pipe through. Once in a...

    Some cases don't work with V10 fingerprint reader. Name your case and if it works or not.

    I got a Case-Mate leather wallet from the Verizon store online. The fingerprint works if I hold the phone it just right so a thumb is pressing down against the little bit of metal that isn't covered. It's not as easy now, but it works. I re-entered my fingerprint on the phone, which seems to...

    Wireless Bluetooth ear buds?

    I use the Jaybird Bluebuds, on this and on my Note(s) before that. I mostly use them for working out, and really like them.

    What was the #1 reason you got the V10?

    I had the Note 1 & 3, but Samsung lost me on the Note 5 by eliminating the swap-out battery & SD slot. What swayed me to buy the V10: 1. the audio quality 2. the free SD card & battery 3. Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the commercial. Sigh...

    Things you don't like about LGV10? :(

    The battery life isn't great. And coming from the Note 1 & 3, I'm still getting used to the power & volume buttons on the back.
