    Are you taking advantage of the S8 Samsung Pay promo?

    Yes, been frequent user of samsung pay, got the 2500 points for switching to s8, in addition got the VR for pre-ordering. Extra points put me high enough to get a Samsung gear fit 2 for my wife for mother's day.

    I use it all the time, one of the features that will keep me using Samsung phones. I find it extremely convenient and useful. As per points, I just earned enough points, 16,000, and got my wife a Gear Fit 2 for Mother's Day. I've used points to get a BestBuy gift card, I think it was worth $20...

    Coming from Windows Phone

    One way would be to use the Android auto app and sync with the car Bluetooth. It will definitely play text messages and has ability to reply to text messages via voice. Don't use Facebook, so I'm not sure how the Facebook messages work, my guess is it doesn't with Android auto.

    Bye bye Galaxy s6 Edge , hello iPhone 6 plus , we meet again...

    I use the clear Samsung case and it definitely is not designed for protection. But that is not the reason that I got the case, the main reason is because I like the looks of the case and I figure if I dropped the phone and the screen breaks I can pay and get it fixed or just file an insurance...
