    US Pure Nougat Is Finally Rolling Out!

    so does this xpe require a SIM card to be installed to get the update? I'm using them for silly this as we have been forced to switch Lenovo/moto forever.

    Oreo coming out and we don't even have Nougat yet?

    "need"? I NEED a battery that can easily be replaced because it lasts 2-3 hours after another annoying factory reset. what *I* need is to always remember Motorola and Lenovo are 6 month (tops) phones before they're ready for replacement.

    Anyone Come to S8 or S8+ from Motorola Phone?

    I grew to dispise moto. it was ok for 6 months. it got to where I had less than 3 hours of battery life. mxpe I'll never buy another moto or Lenovo phone. I purchased the s8+ though I was hoping see the note 8 and new pixel xl 2. but I couldn't stand it. I'm not a fan of the edge gimmick. I'm...

    Waited on Note 8 before I decided to go with S8+

    that makes me feel better. thanks. i had to get a new phone 6 weeks, or so, ago and got the s8+. TWO of them as it turned out. I was holding out for the note 8 or maybe even the pixel xl2.

    Piece of Crap

    battery charging theories are all over these sites. in the past few weeks I've read to put them on the charger at any opportunity. keep it charged BETWEEN %20 - 80. (as if I'd yank the plug at %79). don't use wireless charging too much. drain the battery completely. never drain it completely...

    AT&T Galaxy S8 Volume and dual Bluetooth help

    the audio on my s8+ is also not loud enough. I've gone through the audio adjustments. granted I'm 57 years old, but barring an external amplifier it just isn't loud enough through earbuds. my bluetooth speaker by my bed is sufficient.

    s8 plus not wireless charging

    this'll probably something you've already checked, but do you have a new case? this is my first phone with wireless charging and it didn't occur to me.
