    Anyone else feel kind of cheated by Google?

    The only time I felt cheated by Google is when they released phones like the Pixel 2 and 3 at price points hundreds of dollars more than they were worth. If anything, this phone is righting a wrong.

    Sooo... Who ordered?

    I got a 3a XL a couple days ago. It's really impressive so far. Camera, battery life, screen, and UI are all top notch. App loading times are a hair longer than a phone with a 845 or 855 chip, but I'd say they're on par with an iPhone's loading time. The plastic body is a little...plasticky, but...

    S4 or S5e

    Hey, so I'm torn between getting an S4 for $500 or an S5e for like $480. The big thing I'm mulling over is whether 4 GB of RAM with a 835 processor is better orcworse than 6 GB of ram with that 670 processor. What do you guys think?

    Phone won't go into deep sleep

    No, I have to charge as soon as I get home to make it through until 10 or 11.

    Phone won't go into deep sleep

    Here you go. I didn't screenshot my battery usage in Device Care before I recharged my phone, but here are both the Gsam and Accubattery histories. I'm also confused why it's showing so many processes are operating in the background when I have many of them restricted from being used in the...

    Phone won't go into deep sleep

    I tried both with relatively the same results; mobile data probably draining at a little higher rate than wifi.

    Phone won't go into deep sleep

    Or: Why is there something wrong with literally every Samsung phone I buy? You can ignore that second part. I'm mainly just venting. So, since getting my S10+ a week ago, I've been burning through battery in standby. At work today, I was losing almost 5% an hour with the screen off, battery...

    Camera Quality S10+

    As I discovered in another thread, the standard camera settings on the S10+ are extremely overexposed. Similarly, the portrait mode on the selfie camera does this weird thing where objects in the foreground become way more blurry than when the same pic is taken without portrait mode. It's...

    Call quality

    Just the one that came with the phone. I'm guessing the cell service must've just been bad...

    What's on your OP7 Wish List?

    Some things I hope are included or improved upon on the 7... 1). Screen brightness It's definitely not bad on the 6T, but I'd like to see something that gets closer to the brightness levels the iPhone and Galaxies are now reaching. 2). Vibration motor Holy hell is the vibration motor on the 6T...

    Call quality

    Hi, so I've been experiencing some call quality issues recently with my 6T (I've had it for about 6 months, but I make phone calls so rarely it's possible it's always been an issue and I haven't noticed). Has anyone else had issues with call quality? Particularly with the T-Mobile varient...

    Camera Quality

    Ah, that's it. The S10+ seems to overexpose more than what I remember from the S9+ (or comparable cameras).

    Camera Quality

    Is it photos that you take within the Instragram app? Yeah, I've heard there's something about how Android software is built that in-app camera don't get to use the phone's image processor to it's best ability or something, which lowers the quality. I think I remember something about that being...

    Camera Quality

    Has anyone else noticed some camera quality issues? Most often for me it's that pictures come out too...soft. Particularly during portrait selfies (it had been a problem with the S9 too, but I figured the depth sensor would've fixed it). Here's one example. The first pic is with the S10+, the...

    Excited for S10 but nervous to leave iMessage

    I don't get the whole jazz over iMessage. Even if I had an iPhone, I know well enough people with Android devices that would render using iMessage predominantly almost pointless. One of the third party messaging apps that allow for uniformity across all platforms makes far more sense to me.
