    Are you switching to the S9/S9+?

    I am already up for a upgrade for verizon. I am paying the S8 monthly and as long as i pay at least 50% of the phone, I can upgrade free of charge. I perfer this route than paying full price for a phone.

    Are you switching to the S9/S9+?

    Hell yeah. Much improvement to the camera that exceeds the Note 8 and much faster chip. However, most likely the Note 9 will focus on the screen (more resolution and dolby vision?) and fingerprint sensor under the screen. Samsung seems to focus on things on each line and they chose camera focus...

    What $800 gets you..

    Need? Nope. All those things can be done with a lesser priced phone. Some get flagship just for showing off, but rarely used half of the things the phone can do. I don't pay the full price up front. I always finance mine so I pay a monthly payment and I can "upgrade" once I pay down 50% of the...

    Thoughts on Iphone X? Are you jumping ship?

    Re: Apple's iPhone X does not compare to the Note 8 I think the main problem I have is that Apple and the fanbased seem to look at this things as cutting edge and innovative as if Apple is changing the way we do things. If they claimed they have improved the technologies, then that's different...

    Thoughts on Iphone X? Are you jumping ship?

    Re: Apple's iPhone X does not compare to the Note 8 You can also search the forum and find people having problems with FaceID and fingerprint on the Iphone. Heck, they were even an technical problem during today's live event. So I am not sure if that's statement is true. Apple has their own...

    Thoughts on Iphone X? Are you jumping ship?

    Re: Apple's iPhone X does not compare to the Note 8 If I am not mistaken the wireless pad is able to wireless charge at least two things. But not that's really innovative. You are just making a pad bigger. Then he made it sound like it is so innovative and the future....that has been out for a...

    Good to fact check this Apple Event. They straight up lied so many times (from claiming to change the way you look at television with a 4K streaming applebox to claiming their Iphone X is innovative and revolutionized the future of smartphone), it's not even funny.

    Thoughts on Iphone X? Are you jumping ship?

    You can either pay your rent or mortgage or buy this heavily overpriced phone. The $999 price tag is for Iphone X 64gb, so just imagine how much the Iphone X Plus 264gb will cost. That's ridiculous for what you're getting. Buy a Note 8 and call it a day. And I bet most fanboys will buy it mainly...

    They introduced wireless charging. They are taking us to THE FUTURE. That is so innovative. The brains at Apple headquarters are working hard to deliver cutting edge technology. Who knew wireless charging will be a thing? Not me

    True, but I don't believe they ever said those are their innovative and revolutionary steps towards the future of smartphone....correct me if I am wrong.

    iphone8 vs Note 8 Change of mind!!!

    Which is why benchmarks do not tell the whole story. Numbers do not always compute to human perception. So for some, they hunt the numbers not realizing that they won't even *experience* the change.

    Benchmarks doesn't take into account relative ancedotal usage. Even if an device does better benchmark wise, it may be behind in normal usage compare to another device.

    I thought it was intellectually dishonest for them to claim they have introduced cutting edge technology for the future and its innovative when everything has been introduced by Samsung for years now. They're just catching up.
