    Whats the best bang for the buck phone with a good camera?

    Yes I currently have a S6Active - and I think the camera is great (i'm sure the s7 suprassed it - but for it's generation it was fantastic) but I'm trying to avoid buying a flagship again for $$$ reasons... That's why I ask about bang for the buck.

    Whats the best bang for the buck phone with a good camera?

    What would you recommend as the best value'd phone taking good camera into account...? I know the pixel is probably the best camera. I know the 3T is considered a really great value, with glaring hole of bad camera for action shots. So what phone would you recommend in the 3T price range with...

    1+ 3T questions

    Thanks Jerry - followup question though: You say the pixel offers 2 things over the 3T - better touchscreen and google direct software. I'm surprised you didn't list camera - everyone else says pixel has best camera there is -- do you disagree with that? Are you saying 3T camera is better...

    1+ 3T questions

    Thinking about getting a new phone - coming from S6ACTIVE. I was torn between pixel and 1+3T. After studying them a bunch I think the 3T is really a better buy for the value. Do you agree? Also how about 3T vs. S6Active? I really love the active part (feeling safe without a case for instance +...

    5.1.1

    I didn't reset at all (I shudder at the idea) and have found the phone to be much snappier since upgrade. Hopefully it stays over the long haul because I'd noticed prior once a week or so, the got sooooo laggy I had to reboot it. Here is hoping the speed increase isnt just because it forced a...

    Vibration when Opening Camera App

    Maybe the 'smart alert' option being turned off really didnt take. I've noticed some wonkiness with settings before and its probably just a sw bug. everytime ive hard rebooted it it seems like the settings really 'stick'. not a scientific study of the bug, but give it a shot.

    My first two weeks

    Just noticed another sw quirk,maybe someone knows how to fix.... I can't seem to edit calendar events synchd via exchange. I can view it, share it, and delete it,but it won't let me edit it . Anyone dealt with this before? Thx

    My first two weeks

    I just downloaded the LED tester app, and found out it has full color range (at least 16 or so distinct colors) That's good news! Does it seem odd to anyone else that these phones have all those options but you need a 3rd party app to actually use any of it? Like why wouldn't one be able to...

    Are you happy with your s6 Active

    I've never had them before this phone (2 weeks or so) and I had the same reservations... but i love them. Something very satisfying about having a physical button! (NOTE: My biggest hardware gripe is that i wish they put the speaker on the top front. Seems like there was plenty of room to me.)
