Having had the Note 4 and Note 7 I have to say that these images look to me to have a lot of edging and artifacts in the pics. Things are not as crisp and clean as I would have expected compared with my experience with those two phones. Too bad because I was giving the Pixel XL some...

I liked it a lot until I had a Note 7. Now it just seems big and bulky. And yes it does have Marshmallow. I think Marshmallow was a good update. My phone stopped lagging after that release and is pretty zippy overall.

Well, after returning my second Note 7 I reactivated my Note 4 because I can't find another phone that has better features. I'll be waiting for the Note 8 or possibly the S8 Plus or whatever they will call it. I like having the stylus but it's not a necessity for me. I really liked the lower...

I was approved and also did not get any shipping info but my card came today.

I work for Sam's. Sorry you had to actually get a regional manager involved because we are told to never ask for the cards back. It's not the consumer's fault for the recall. The only thing you need to know is that when, and if, you get a new Note 7 if you go to a Sam's Club to purchase it on...

I plan on staying with my Note 7. This is the first phone I have really loved. It meets all my needs and more. So, I'll probably wait it out until a replacement device can be had. I won't accept a refurb. I bought a new phone at full price and expect a new phone in exchange. Kevin

Thank you so much guys! I really appreciate it. That's not how I connected with the Note 4 but this is so much easier. Thanks again! Kevin

Has anyone figured out an easy way to do screen mirroring onto their Samsung TV now? It was so easy on the Note 4 because all you had to do was switch screen mirroring on your TV and phone and voila! Whatever you have showing on your phone mirrored to your Samsung TV. I really liked being able...

I've only handled one for about ten minutes at work, but it seems to feel like a sleeker and slimmer version of the Note series. I currently own a Note 4 and have enjoyed using it but the design of the Note 7 looks very nice. I would say the edging is much less pronounced and more subtle than...

When I run Battery Doctor on my phone it's showing around 80 apps running in the background. I don't remember my S4 having that problem and I was wondering if this is normal for the Note 4. Has anyone found a way to keep most apps from running in the background without rooting the phone? Kevin

Rather than uninstall/reinstall my suggestion would be to go to the Applications Manager and clear the data and cache in the app. Then restart the phone and see if it works then. Kevin

Re: My s4 will not send or recieve pics. And you have made sure that mobile data is turned on? Sometimes the simplest things are at fault. My wife's phone does this quite often because she forgets to turn mobile data on when she needs to.

I'd try a cache cleaner for the browser and see if that fixes it.

If this were true do honestly think that huge companies like Amazon, Sam's Club and Costco, to name a few, would use their services? An A+ business rating with the Better Business Bureau speaks for itself. Kevin

Re: Square trade More people damage their devices by far than have them stolen. Not to say it doesn't happen but depending on where it happened your home or auto insurance may cover part of your loss. I think Square Trade is a good deal and worth the peace of mind. I got the three year...
