    Are you gonna buy it?

    Unfortunately this phone is way too expensive for my taste. It should be at least $100 cheaper for an XL 128GB.

    Rumor: V20 to be released on October 21st in US

    I just read the same date on Phonearena. What I don't understand is why did LG announce this phone more than a month away from its release?!? If they weren't ready to release the V20 soon, postpone the announcement. Whoever is doing their marketing needs a dope slap. That being said, V20 is...

    thoughts on the V20?

    I found a video in Korean and the screen brightness looks pretty good to my eyes. Here's the video. Start at 3:19. https://youtu.be/DIdhyaEOs04

    V20: Doomed to fail?

    We shouldn't compare the V20 to the iPhone 7 (not plus). They might have the same price, but when it comes to features the V20 comes out way ahead. IMHO, if the V20 is available at $650 as an unlocked version, I'd buy it.

    How long can I keep my grandfathered in unlimited plan

    Thanks for the reply! They can't tempt me to give it up because I always buy unlocked phones. What they could do in the future is to limit bandwidth on non-AT&T devices. It'd be a sad day if this did happen.

    How long can I keep my grandfathered in unlimited plan

    Hi all, After watching T-Mobile's announcement today, I fear that AT&T and Verizon may follow suit and create this ridiculous "unlimited" plan that's full of caveats. I still have my old grandfathered in unlimited plan from 2009 and I plan to keep it until AT&T forces me to give it up. Do you...

    Unlocked Carrier Free Note 7?

    Ever since I bought an unlocked iPhone 6 Plus, I vowed not to buy a carrier branded unless I absolutely have to. These Note 7 models are really tempting. But I plan to wait for the US unlocked version.

    Leaving iOS... Couple questions

    I'm also moving from IOS to Android and I have an additional question. How fast is Samsung/AT&T with Android updates? When do you all think Android Nougat would be available for the Note 7 on AT&T? Thanks!

    Unlocked?

    BTW B&H has the international unlocked version of the Note 7 listed. It'll be available late August. The drawbacks for these versions is that Samsung Pay and possibly Wifi calling won't work.

    Which would you prefer? Water resistant or replaceable battery?

    Neither. I'd choose a bigger battery.

    I've ordered my Note 7!" (Order & Shipping Discussion) Color Poll Inside!

    Ordered a blue coral Note 7 from AT&T. Once I get the phone I'll redeem the SD card with Samsung.
