    Spigen Cases

    The buttons may be hard for some people to find. I've only had it for a day and I'm already used to the feel and location of the buttons where it is not a problem for me. They require a little bit more pressure to push than other cases, but I like it. They feel solid and firm not flimsy at all...

    Spigen Cases

    Just got the tough armor, this case is fantastic. It has exactly what I need, speaker and mic holes facing foward now the sound is clearer and less muffled when using google maps and playing clash of clans. Feels very thick and sturdy reminds me of my UAG note 7 case, actually feels better than...

    Pixel XL GPS Issue

    Using Google maps seems accurate similar to note 7 GPS. I have an intermittent problem in Google maps sometimes the voice will crackle. I Don't think it is a hardware speaker problem since it only happens in Google maps.

    For those of you that came from a Note 7....

    The screen seems a lot smaller than the n7, especially when using google maps a black border appears on the bottom making the screen look even smaller. The screen quality is nice thought, very bright too. Also when playing clash of clans, my hand blocks the speaker since it is located on bottom...

    Spigen Cases

    Depends which case. I had the neo hybrid for the note 7 and it felt too slick on the sides because of the smooth plastic frame. I just got the Rugged Armor for the Pixel XL and it is more grippy since it uses a single rubber shell. I am using the UAG case for my note 7 currently and it is a...

    What Replacement Phone Have You Decided On?

    Ordered the pixel xl 128gb from Verizon. Shipping Oct 20th. Good battery life, amoled screen, Android optimized performance plus the new toy feeling.

    Here are the Major Note 7 Alternatives (sorry, none of them are exactly like the Note 7)

    Re: Much deliberation - went Pixel XL, barely. Ugh. I ordered the 128gb black version from Verizon. Arriving Oct. 20th. Not excited about the looks but I like the performance and battery life that it should have. I use Google maps everyday while driving, Google assistant sounds intriguing.

    Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Cases

    Have the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It looks nice but the sides and back are kind of slick. Scared it might slip out of my hand one day. Ordered the UAG case in black, I hope it has more grip.

    Blurry apps?

    Yes. When I played Clash of Clans it appeared blurry compared to when I played on the Note 3.

    The Note 7 Battery life Thread

    Wow the battery life is incredible on this Note 7 compared to my old Note 3. Lasts around 10 times longer. I was playing a game for 3-4 minutes and the battery didn't even drop 1%. On my note 3 it would have dropped like 5%.

    Keeping batteries in good shape?

    I'm still on the note 3. I charge it any time I can at home or in the car. I always have it plugged in. Leave it charging overnight even though it is 100%. Doesn't seem to have any ill effects, my battery still seems similar to when I first got it.

    Note 7 Gorilla Glass

    looks like it hit a hard object at an angle which caused the force of impact to focus on a small area.
