Interesting. Thanks for letting me know. Now I remember the same thing happened with my S21 Ultra and I could not figure it out either. Maybe it is something with the dual wireless pad as that is what we have in common? When I had the trio I do not recall this happening or not being this bad off.

I normally charge my phone while I sleep. On occasion I noticed that the battery still shows that its almost charged when I wake up which is not a big deal since when I get out of the shower it is fully charged. Today, when I woke up I see that the battery showed 59% charged and it needed...

Thanks. Been looking for a review like this. I’m a flip flopper too between Android and iPhone. My last one was the s21 ultra. Hated the size but loved the screen and camera. Then I went back to iPhone and got the 12. Now the flip has caught my eye. Don’t want another big phone. Now I just need...

Funny that you posted this because I’m thinking of doing the exact opposite. IOS is the same old. Not much difference between the latest IOS. As far as the phones go not much different from the iPhone X. At least Android is somewhat more progressive. Apple Watch is pretty much the same too. Not...

Action Launcher

I made that mistake too. Ordered the Note 20 in Mystic Bronze. Loved the color but then went on an Apple is superior bender back in December and sold the Note 20 for an Iphone 12. Normally phones excite me when I get them, the IP12 was sort of ho hum. Four months later, I am back with Android...

Also if you opt for the S21+ consider the S21 ultra. You get much more for the additional cost of the Ultra which is about $100 now with all the sales. Better camera, better display and more RAM.

I have been very unimpressed with the Samsung earbuds until I purchased the Buds Pro. IMO they are a huge improvement in sound and noice cancellation over the prior earbuds. Plus the integrated app is another plus. They have a voice detection feature that senses your own voice so, when you speak...

I switched last week from IP12 to S21 Ultra. IOS seems to be buggy recently and wanted a change from the same old. same old that Apple offers. You can use the Google Assistant with the S21. I personally use the Action Launcher myself. One gripe that I have and maybe it is in the settings but...

I was considering the same thing. I had a Note 20 with the GWA2 and even tried the Fitbit Sense. Eventually got frustrated with the inaccuracy and crawled back to Apple. Now I am looking at trying to go back to Android. The AW frustrates me like last time. When exercising, sometimes it gives me...

Is there a difference in accuracy between the GWA2 and the GW3? Trying to decide between the 2 of them.

I am coming from the Apple Watch and I am used to more frequent heart rate measurements. At the end of the day I see some days under Trends where there are 3 or so entries for my heart rate and other days where I see more than 8. Does that mean that the Active 2 is only measuring my heart rate 3...

Thanks for the all the tips. Today I went out and purchased the S20+. So far so good. I am pretty impressed with all that it has to offer.

How are the Nest Notifications on the Active 2? I am interested in the watch but last year I had the Samsung Galaxy Watch and when I got a notification, it would just tell me to check my watch whereas with my Apple Watch it would display a short video clip of what it saw.

About a year ago, I tried to break free from the walled garden of Apple and purchased a S10+ with a Galaxy smartwatch. The experience was somewhat frustrating and I was wondering how much was improved with the current model. With the S10+, it would open random apps and in some cases, I would...
