    Contemplating moving over to an iPhone 6...

    There are plenty of situations where an iPhone is a better fit than an Android device. - If you have a full Apple eco-system (iMac + iPad + Apple TV), the synergy with an iPhone is powerful....being able to AirPlay, take phone calls / face time calls from any of your apple devices, access to...

    Contemplating moving over to an iPhone 6...

    All fair points....and quite frankly, if your primary use case for your phone is to launch applications from an "app drawer" or grid-view of icons....iOS is the way to go. There is no point in enduring the weaknesses of Android (battery / performance issues) if you're not taking advantage of...

    Why didn't you go with the edge+?

    I'd be interested in knowing when they decided on their 2015 portfolio of phones. Given there is no good explanation for the S6 Edge Plus...you'd think it was a knee jerk reaction by Samsung given the higher than expected demand of the S6 Edge. However, going from design to production to...

    Is the lack of an IR blaster a deal breaker in the Note 5?

    Re: Why no IR blaster? I'm curious what models of projector, TV, DVR & AV receiver you have that operate off of RF / Bluetooth. I just purchased a 2014 top line Samsung 1080p HDTV and it ONLY uses IR. (Oddly enough, my 2010 Samsung HDTV had RF & IR) My 2014 Yamaha AV receiver does use...

    Is the lack of an IR blaster a deal breaker in the Note 5?

    Re: Why no IR blaster? Hate to break it to you but they removed the IR blaster from the S6 Edge+ as well.....no idea why...

    Is the lack of an IR blaster a deal breaker in the Note 5?

    Re: Why no IR blaster? I'd be interested to see the basis of your estimate. Since nearly all TVs & Home Theatre equipment still use infrared signals, there seems to be plenty of opportunities to use that feature. If you've ever cracked open a smartphone....the IR blaster takes little to no...

    Is the lack of an IR blaster a deal breaker in the Note 5?

    Re: Why no IR blaster? I am curious why Samsung seems to be abandoning the IR blaster. It's not just on the Note 5...the new S6 Edge+ does not have it, nor does the new "supposed" flagship Galaxy S2 Tablets. It's not for all I suppose, but it is a critical feature for me. The TV controls can...
