    Best Wireless Charger

    Samsung guy told me because it's USB-C instead of micro USB it charges a "little" faster. IDK if true or not just passing along. Even if true you'd probably have to use a timer or stopwatch to tell the difference. Ftr I went with the older style and it works just fine for me.

    The most thin case for the S8

    I looked seriously at purchasing this one last night, but there were several reviews about the case buckling around the volume buttons (probably because it is so thin.) I may wait until I see if it's just a limited number or a wider design issue. Overall, I much prefer ultra thin cases like...

    Who's spending $100+ ($70 US) on cases?

    I usually end up getting 15-20 cases for every flagship phone I buy which is usually 2-3 per year. Most are $5-10, sometimes less. It's a sickness.

    This phone is BEAST!

    The Galaxy Note7 has been recalled for battery issues

    Is battery a moot point at the end of the day?

    I should add I have an iPhone 6, iPhone 6s Plus, Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy Note 7, iPad Mini 3, and MacBook Air, too. I have the same cornucopia of charging paraphernalia for my Apple stuff. It's a sickness.

    Is battery a moot point at the end of the day?

    OP, I could've written your post almost verbatim. Everything you said is how I feel and behave. Except I have rapid chargers in both vehicles, work backpack, desk at work, recliner in my man cave, both nightstands, three wireless Samsung chargers, and about five USB battery power banks in...

    the curved edges are making me consider going back to my iPhone 6S Plus

    Well, after 2-3 months using the iPhone 6s Plus, I've come back to the S7E. Several factors: It's just so darned gorgeous...can't keep my hands off it. (Still used it on wifi most every evening.) It's lighter and smaller than the 6S Plus. I found a solution to the one-handed problem...well...

    I am a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. :) If you like that avatar, you'd love the Ricky Spanish one I use on some other message boards.

    Any other platforms you guys use regularly?

    Had an M8 and loved it. My daughter now uses it and also loves it. Been going strong since release day in May 2014 I think. Awesome device.
