    Anyone getting a Moto Z?

    I think the Z Force is the most interesting phone that's going to be released this year. The regular Z is just too thin and lacking battery for me but the forever droid edition looks tempting. The possibility of the fantastic camera add-on and the one compute is to much to resist. I'm also very...

    Should I buy htc 10 or else samsung galaxy s7?

    I have the S7 and my gf tried out the 10 before going with the S7 edge. She's a long time M8 user and loved HTC. That being said, she's prefers the design of the edge. While she was trying out the 10, I noticed a couple of things. Battery life is not much better on the 10 than the S7. And the...

    Anyone getting a Moto Z?

    I swore of Motorola after they abandoned my maxx on kk after months of saying they were going to update it to lollipop. But the Z Force looks nice and has a good battery. I'll play with it in the stores when it's released. And this is how you do mods. The LG way is ridiculous. Turn off the...

    So I picked up a G5

    Interesting you went with the G5. I'm sure it's not as bad as all the press it's gotten. But if i were to switch out from my S7, I'd probably try the HTC 10 first. Any reasons for not trying the 10? I also returned the edge initially because of your same reasons. I started in the family and got...

    Android and Windows exclusively. My S7, a Dell Venue tablet, my Surface pro 3, and a desktop, both on Win10.

    Verizon Galaxy Update

    Updated last night. Seems to be working fine. I had been planning on a reset afterwards so will do that today. Otherwise it feels a little snappier but no changes. Phone works fine. Wifi calling is nice.

    Is tidal the best music streaming service?

    Tidal dies nothing for me. Was on GPM. But now on back on Spotify with their family plan!

    Touchwiz...

    I find stock Nexus phones and software lacking and boring. I've had one and I just ended up spending a lot of time looking for apps that replicated things TW or Sense already offered. It's like buying a car with no options. To me, that's not a flagship at all. And until the 6p, hardware and...

    HTC 10 going back, I'm going to iOS

    Which ios keyboard pray tell is better? Because i would love to try it. Third party support is still stunted and the Apple keyboard is quite ugly and limited in function. Google keyboard is better imo. Never mind superior ones like swift key. You have a mac so of course ios integration is...

    always on display

    I use it. Actually displays message notifications from the Verizon messages+ app which i use exclusively. It does prevent me from turning on my phone all the time. Not as useful as the he moto active display i had on my previous phone but still OK.

    galaxy s7 speaker sounds distorted and horrible after trying out waterproof feature

    I use mine regularly in the shower. It always sounds like that for a hour or so before it dries out. Don't worry about it to much. I wouldn't blow on it or anything like that though. Just air it out.

    The fingerprint sensor has to be the most useless/counterproductive feature of the S7

    It works pretty well for me. I'd say about 85% of the time it works immediately. A slight annoyance at times but one I can live with. Just a hint, I've realized you don't have to press the home button twice to unlock the phone. I just press the button and hold it down. The phone wakes up...

    Verizon New (APD2) Update / Battery Life Impact?

    A day after the update my battery life is slightly better. There is more parity in battery use between the system and screen. Before it was always system on top. I ended the day yesterday with about 10% more battery life than I'm used to. I'm happy with the update. Just be sure to disable the...

    So who's gotten gotten their phones wet?

    I've been using mine in the shower regularly. Also rinsed it under running water after my son threw up on it (5mos old). So I can say it is also vomit proof. Love this phone.

    HTC 10 vs. Samsung Galaxy S7

    Maybe in the 10 forums, LOL. Anyway my girl decided on the S7 Edge. Physically it is similar in size to the 10, which is incidentally similar in size to her M8 and the bigger screen called to her. My S7 is much smaller than all of them. She loves the vibrancy of amoled and kind of got spoiled...
