My frustration as well, which has kept me on the iOS platform as well. After years of my family and I using iMessage to send full quality videos, there's no alternative that I have found. Sending a link from YouTube is great and all, but not if the person on the other end would like to add that...

May I ask why? I ask seriously in that I'm a long-time iPhone user who is thinking of switching to Android.

Yes, that's our biggest worry. We've already fallen into the iMessage hole even though we turned off iMessage, FaceTime and deregulate red manually. Individual text messages are fine but group messaging is a disaster. We are having to contact everyone who has us in a group iMessage and have them...

Thanks for all of the great replies. Yeah, I think the biggest transition will be getting out from the iMessage and FaceTime portion of the Apple ecosystem. I know there are plenty of alternatives to choose from, but it's getting my aging in-laws and some friends on board, who own nothing but...

We had a promo code and got ours in B&H as well. Great cust service. We are on AT&T

My wife and I found a stellar deal (under $400 each) on 2 new-in-box Note 4 International editions (SM-N910C) with the Exynos processor. We actually tried the Note 5's last year when they came out but decide to stick with our iPhone 6's at the time. As time wore on, we started to get the itch...

Thanks, I think I just might do that. I am interested to see what the new Z line brings. If anything, the MXPE will drop in price if I ultimately decide to forgo the requirement for a fingerprint scanner.

Hi, I'm seriously considering the Moto C Pure, coming from an iPhone 6. One thing I'm concerned about is missing Touch ID for managing quick unlocking of the phone. Any suggestions (outside of smart lock) that you prefer to manage unlocking your device quickly and efficiently? I'm watching out...

Word up on all fronts. I am exactly the same, as I love Android, yet get frustrated...but usually because most of my family and friends are so ingrained in the Apple ecosystem that I feel I'm out of touch without iMessage and FaceTime. I still can't wait to see the new Moto X (or is it Z) line...

Looks fantastic. Is this your current daily driver? I think what keeps driving me back to iOS is that a boatload of family and friends use iMessage and FaceTime with me, which doesn't make the switch to Android very easy. I wish Apple would publish these apps in Google Play already...I know...

In response to why I try different phones: - A love of technology is what drives me.

I, too, tried the HTC 10. You and I seem to have very similar thoughts and history with Android/iOS. I started with the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G, which I believe was the 2nd Android phone out there. I loved that thing...I moved to the iPhone 3GS and never looked back until the Note 3 line came out...

I joined the wait-list 2 days ago for another 6P 64 Aluminum ...today, I randomly checked and they had stock of the 32 and 64 GB variants in only Aluminum...put in my order for a 64 GB and it leaves Nov 12 -14th! I never got an email from Google saying they were back in stock :-/

My Carbon Nexus 6P case has been pending for about 5 days now and I just noticed a charge of 37.88, the same price as the case, with tax. Oddly, the transaciton description is :GOOGLE *Wang Chao" Anyone else see this? The original ship date was Nov 2 - 4.
