    If only they would make this phone in the S23 Plus size and form factor, retaining the Ultra's cameras and minus the S-Pen. That would have been the perfect fit for me and I gladly would have paid a premium for the already premium price. As it is though, I am liking my S23 Ultra a lot, more...

    Has anyone used the Spigen S23 Ultra “EZ Fit Optik Pro Lens Protector” Camera Lens stick on Protrs?

    I have these on mine and don't have any issues, although I am also using the Spigen Tough Armor case which I think is supposed to play nicely with these protectors. I don't notice any difference in picture quality using these.

    Sales for Note 9 less than expected

    Interesting thread. I for one enjoy the phone for what it is. No phone is perfect, but the Note 9 ticks off most of the boxes on my checklist. I'm also a fan of iPhones as well and have just recently got in on that deal for the Xr. Again, I like that phone for what it is. They both have...

    Strange Battery Life When Unplugged

    Is it normal to see the display as being the battery hog? I looked at the battery use on mine and so far it's saying that it's taking 63% while cell standby and phone idle are at 11% and 9% respectively.

    Well, I basically have until next Wednesday to do all of this...I was reading the unrooting thread from the link above, and being a noob to Android as well as Linux in general, I'm feeling more inclined to stick it out with the Optimus for another 11 months, until I get to upgrade again. Some...

    Thanks! Does that also mean that I have to "unroot" the thing too, or just flash back to the stock rom?

    Decisions, decisions....

    Hi Guys, I'm going back and forth over whether to return my Optimus back to Best Buy since I'm within the 30 day return window and pick up an EVO Shift. My prior phone was the Palm Pixi and what I miss the most is a physical keyboard. I'm currently rooted and running Thunderom 1.5. Do you...

    Which phone are you switching from and why?

    Hi Guys, I'm thinking about switching out of an Optimus to this one. Does anyone know if the screen is made out of glass? I don't think I've seen this specified any where. Thanks.
