    Is the Flip a sales Flop?

    Yeah this thread is becoming increasingly nonsensical. There are people that derive some odd form of pleasure from watching certain brands do poorly. It's like a perverted sense of fanboyism. Buy what you like, ignore what you don't.

    TMobile Trade In

    Hey everyone! With regards to the TMobile $1000 trade in offer, but have a question regarding the qualifying service. You obviously need a Max plan to qualify, but can you downgrade back to the regular Magenta plan after a few months of getting the phone? Or will this cause you to lose the EIP...

    Upgrade to Z Flip 3?

    That's literally my biggest fear... I'm not sold on the durability of these foldables.

    Upgrade to Z Flip 3?

    Hey everyone! So now that the Z Flip 3 is out, and many carriers have excellent trade in deals involving the S20, has anyone considered making the switch? Personally, I'm really on the fence with my S20 Plus. I love the idea of the flip, but have concerns regarding long term durability, tiny...

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    Switched my wife's S20 and my S20 Plus to LTE, and no issues whatsoever over the past 24 hours.

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    Haven't had a chance to visit a T-Mobile store yet. My concern from past experience is that they will recommend a full factory reset, which I know won't fix it (given how many other people are seeing the same problem, and that 2 S20s in my house are behaving exactly the same way). It's so hard...

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    It was getting so bad, I had to switch my network settings to 4G. This appears to have fixed the issues, but obviously not ideal and not a permanent solution.

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    Looks like people with the OnePlus 8 are having the same issues after the 5G standalone update: https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/i6omyw/losing_mobile_connectivity_after_update_for/ https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/i6wi0w/calling_not_working_in_5g_sa_after_oneplus_8/

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    I definitely think this 5G NR update messed things up. Been having really strange issues ever since, including the phone dropping calls to switch to 4G, losing signal and having to be restarted, etc. This is happening to both my S20 Plus and my wife's S20, so I know it's not the phone. And all...

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    I'm gonna stop by my local TMobile store today and try to get them to replace my SIM. I've been using the same SIM card since my S8. This is getting pretty annoying.

    T-Mobile Issues from August update

    I've been having issues ever since the 5G NR update. Sometimes I can't make or receive calls, and my S20 Plus struggles to switch between 4G LTE and 5G.

    Got the update on my 3a XL today. Bought the device on T-Mobile.

    Anyone considering upgrading their 3a or XL to a Pixel 4?

    Performance has exceeded expectations for me. It's extremely fast and smooth for pretty much all normal activities (texting, web browsing, watching videos, etc.). Occasionally, there may be a small frame drop or hiccup in some very intensive games, but I haven't played a game yet that the 3a...

    gmail dark mode/theme

    I might be wrong, but I believe that the Play Store theme is set automatically to match your device theme. So if you have system-wide dark mode enabled, the Play Store should go dark.

    Anyone considering upgrading their 3a or XL to a Pixel 4?

    After this phone, I don't know if I'm ever paying flagship prices again. I'll definitely wait for the 4a.
