    Google Services Missing?

    You need to use Smart Switch to transfer your esim and data from your iPhone to your Samsung, it will automatically also transfer your esim and number to your new phone. Your Samsung phone should already have Smart switch and you can download it to your iPhone from the store.

    Are yearly prepaid phone plans worth it?

    Ok, just switched two lines to US Mobile (mine and wife's). I got the full year unlimited everything, unlimited data (with no deprioritizing), crap load of hotspot, talk & text, switch carriers at no charge, and a bunch of free call countries and international perks. I paid $598 for both lines...

    Are yearly prepaid phone plans worth it?

    I've been with TMO for about nine years now and I've been thinking that it's time for a change. Was looking at US Mobile yearly plans, but I am a little afraid since I don't really know them well. How has their service been? Any issues with customer service? Any service that is missing with...

    S26 Plus Protectors

    I got two sets of those one for my wife's s26 plus and another for my 26 ultra. Ruined all for of them trying to put them on. It says to pull the blue cover sheet marked "1" first but when I did that turns out that is what connected to the plastic placement tool. Would you mind a short tutorial...

    POLL: Are you upgrading to the S26 Ultra?

    Looking forward to seeing the pics you take on your new phone!

    First Update Inbound

    That really doesn't sound right unless you have a massive amount of pics and music or videos. I have over 60 gigs of music plus a few pics and mine took about 30 to 40 minutes.

    A couple of questions about getting things up and running

    When I used sims I just took it out of the old phone and put it in the new one before I started Smart Switch. I used to do the switch using a cable but now do it wirelessly, it's easier and fast. Just turn on the new phone and it will walk you through the process.

    Who's ditching the fold 7

    I'm trading in my Fold 7 but I'm not ditching it for the S26U. My daily for the last few months has been the P10P XL. So, I'm really ditching the P10P XL for the 26U. Before that I had the Oneplus 13 and before that the Sammy S25U. That's all in a single year! All nice phones, all have their...

    So when we start receiving shipments??

    I ordered originally on day 1 but cancelled that order last Saturday when I saw that trade in on the ZF7 had been included. I still got my notice that our two phones have shipped and are due to arrive on Monday the 9th.

I just cancelled those and re-purchaea the Ultra and 26 Plus and traded in the Z Fold 7 for the Ultra and the Pixel 10 Pro XL for the Plus, I'll keep the P10 Pro as a...

    Who's Ordering The S26

    Well this wasn't in the plan for today because I had no intention of getting the new Sammy phones, but tonight my wife asks if I watched the Samsung stuff today and then asked what I thought. Told her they were ok but I didn't intend to buy this time. She then told me that she isn't thrilled...

    How to leave Beta 16

    Ok, thanks for the info. I thought I should be able to wait to do a no wipe update. I don't really care if the data wipe update sits and waits until hell freezes over.

    How to leave Beta 16

    I've been using Sammy phones all the way back to the Captivate (before the S series started). I've run betas on the S series phones for years. A few months ago I bought a Pixel 10 Pro XL because I think Samsung is really on the wrong track lately showing nothing but timidity and lack of...

    Who is waiting for the S26 Ultra?

    When you get back just call Samsung and ask for an extension on the return date. I did that once and was given an additional two weeks on the return date.
