Which some would argue is disabling what makes the device what it is. Shouldn't have to reduce anything when you pay what this phone costs to get great battery.

So what's likely happening with these FedEx shipments is they're being loaded onto a trailer dedicated to Assurant and that trailer is taken to Assurant for them to unload. There's no delivery scan associated with the delivery because the trailer itself is delivered as a whole with several...

It's been a great phone, battery life is great and I can see myself keeping this longer than two years which is normally longer than I keep them lol.

I say go Ultra then, the S-Pen does come in handy every once in a while and the extra screen real estate is what I prefer for media which is what most use their phone for anyway.

I believe the updates are for 7 years, and I prefer the Ultra. I've never owned a Plus model, but I figure if you're going to choose between two devices from the same brand similar in size, might as well get the one with all the features. Assuming price isn't a concern.

I agree that you shouldn't buy a device just to disable features that make the device what it is. I don't think that's the point of this thread, it's to compare experiences. I for one have heard nothing but good things and the battery life but I'm not seeing spectacular results like a lot of...

Follow-up question, AOD turned off?

Did you transfer data over from another phone?

I haven't been able to receive messages from a friend who is using Google Messages still.

Looking like Verizon needs to enable it. https://community.verizonwireless.com/t5/Samsung-Galaxy-Note/One-UI-3-0-Advanced-Messaging-not-working/m-p/1198325

I'm the same way, I want to give Samsung's Messages app a try because I can do more with it on my watch. I enjoy Google Messages, but it would be nice to have the added functionality with Samsung's app.

I'd like to use Samsung Messages because I can initiate texts from my Active 2 as opposed to only answering with Google Messages, but I enjoy the RCS features so I'm using Google Messages for now.
