    S9+ > iPhone xs Max > xs > S9+

    Exactly, you can get the Note 9 and a series of accessories and still have more money in the bank than if you only got an XS Max.

    S9+ > iPhone xs Max > xs > S9+

    There are things I love about both platforms, iOS is better in terms of some things and Android better in terms of others. Example, I love how I can customize and change up my Android devices, whereas I really appreciate the resale value I get out of my phones. Apple resale value is fantastic...

    That’s how I feel exactly. I normally bounce around too and always have an iOS and Android device but opted not to upgrade my iPhone to any XS series phones. Can’t justify it either.

    Anyone switching back to pixel 3 from iPhone??

    What did you end up doing with your Note 9? So, you went XS Max to Note 9-back to XS Max and now going to the Pixel 3 XL? All over the last 2 weeks? I thought you were using a Note 9 and that you had plans to returns your XS Max? Said you felt stupid for buying it, have been very critical of...

    Bent S Pen...

    The issue is they are coming bent out of the box. Clearly a manufacturing defect impacting a certain percentage of units. Those with bent pens will most likely deal with a broken pen at some point.

    Agree. My issue is what you get for the price. It is way over priced.

    I do. Do I get as many hours as I do out of my 8 Plus? Of course not, but I have no issues getting through the day with it when I use it.

    🤣 no it doesn’t. That is simply false. I have an older SE with throttling off and get hours out of it.

    S9+ > iPhone xs Max > xs > S9+

    The well known issues around Samsung Android devices slowing down over time is widely know, spread and talked about. Don’t get me wrong, I still love my Android devices because I love some of the unique features and ability to customize my phone however every Samsung device I’ve ever owned has...

    Important to note why they were throttling and the ability now for iPhone owners to turn the throttling off. Basically no longer an issue.

    Bent S Pen...

    This [emoji1313] Taken from a response on the Samsung forum regarding those with bent and or broken S-pens. “If you look at the JerryRigs video on the older S-pen teardown, the chromed piece has maybe a thin 1/4 inch plastic that is basically pressed/joined to the tube of main pen. To get a...

    S9+ > iPhone xs Max > xs > S9+ I will say this, I respect Android Central far more than I respect iMore. Here you can have respectful back and forth discussion, even if you disagree and even if you are pointing out a fault with a specific phone. Over at iMore, you say one bad thing...

    S9+ > iPhone xs Max > xs > S9+ And the fact that the typical user, meaning the majority, do not upgrade even once a year let alone multiple times. The minority only do that. Not surprised if most here do as the high majority here are tech geeks. Myself included.

    With respect, can we get some clarity on whether you have an iPhone XS Max or not? I remain confused. On September, 27th you stated you returned it to Best Buy and felt stupid for spending the money you did on it. Then in the following days you actively posted about it, including your charging...

    They are very overpriced, especially the latest phones but I've always said the post sale customer service and support you get from Apple is second to none and worth something. I have an issue with my phone or need to get a replacement through Applecare+ I either go in a store and walk out a...
