I used one of those $20 referral coupons to get the bullets for free when I ordered my 6t last month. I've never had this style of ear phone before and I'm not sure if I like them. I had been using an old pair of apple ear phones for like 5 years, but they finally died a few months ago. My only...

After a few weeks of deciding, I just placed my order for the 6t! I was hoping to hold out to see what the 7 was going to be like, but the battery on my Z Play was giving me fits so I couldn't wait. Can't wait!

Re: T-Mobile 6T to International Conversion (WITHOUT unlocked bootloader/SIM unlock!) So the unlocked version doesn't have the swipe left Google Now or whatever it is called these days?

Almost ready to pull the trigger on the 6t. A few questions. Do I go for the protection plan? I'm not one to break a screen or drop it in water so might not be worth it, but wasn't sure how much OP charged for these fixes. 6 or 8 for the RAM? I'm coming from a mid range Z Play so anything is...

My SOT today was barely 3 hours. Messages was 18% of the battery when I only sent 4 texts and had 2 minutes of screen. No idea what's going on. I really don't want the bulk of a battery pack and don't want to have to worry about having it with me. I think I really just want a new phone. I'm...

I have seen the battery life slowly decrease over time, but that's typical. 10 hours SOT to 8 hours over a little less than 2 years, but over the last few weeks I'm barely getting 4.5. I haven't installed any new apps and my daily usage is the same. The only thing I've noticed is that Messages...

I honestly don't mind the "bulkiness" of the original Z Play. I had a LG G3 prior and that was a pretty thin phone at the time and I always felt like the slightest drop was going to destroy it. The Z Play felt more solid in my hands and battery life is ultimately the most important feature to...

Only issue I've come across so far is my left swipe to Google Now has stopped working twice. I've needed to restart the phone to get it to work again.

Yes. I just installed it as well.

Any chance the unlocked Z Play will be getting Oreo at this point?

I updated on Wednesday night and haven't noticed any differences in performance or battery life. Was fully charged this morning,have had 3.5 hours of SOT and battery is at 71%. I usually average about 1 hour SOT for each 10% of the battery, so I'm actually ahead of my normal pace.

Thanks. I turned off that setting. Maybe it will make a difference.

I usually turn Wifi off when I leave for work in the morning since my office doesn't have it and then turn back on when i get home. I've read this is supposed to be better for the battery since phone isn't looking for signal. When I look at my battery history, the WiFi line is almost solid green...

Thanks for the info. I did end up getting this a few days ago.Loving the battery life. Took it off the charger yesterday morning at 6:30am. I'm not a power user, but after few phone calls, ton of texts, web browsing, 4.5 hours of screen time, it was still at 52% when I went to bed. No need to...

I know, this doesn't even have Nougat yet, but based on history, do we think this will get 8.0? Still deciding, but I might get this today. Not sure if I want to get a phone that would only be updated with 1 new version of the software. I know, if that is a deal breaker, then get a Nexus or...
