    No 3.5mm headphone jack - deal breaker or not?

    It isn't a deal breaker but there was no reason for Moto to remove the headphone jack - especially when it is included in the Z2 Play.

    Why haven't you switched to iPhone?

    I think that Qualcomm found a gem in the Snapdragon 625. They need to find a way to improve its CPU/GPU and camera processing performance without losing its efficiency. I would love a quasi-flagship device with a souped up version of Snagdragon 625.

    Thanks, Verizon

    This is no different from the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 6, and Nexus 6p shipping shortages. The Nexus 4 was nearly impossible to get until the new year after it was released. The Nexus 5 sold out constantly as well in November and December of 2013. The Nexus 6 was so bad that Google would release...

    Why haven't you switched to iPhone?

    Several reasons. 1) I love my emulators. Yes - you can jailbreak your iPhone and get them but then you can't update your iPhone until another jailbreak comes out for the next version of iOS. 2) Drag and drop from any computer. I love that I can plug my Android device into my work computer...

    Nexus 6P with 7.0 randomly turns on Do not disturb?

    I have the same issue with my OG LG G Watch connected to my Nexus 6p. This never happened with my Moto X 2013 or Moto X 2014. It is really annoying.

    Google Pixel XL - Top of Phone

    Turn your camera on and then tap the top of your phone. Do you still hear the rattle? If you don't - then your phone is fine. If you do - then call Google.

    Allo is live now, SMS is supported but a little weird

    IMHO, this app shouldn't have been released in its current state. This reminds of when BlackBerry released the half baked PlayBook and Z10. You can't save conversations in case you switch phones. Sucks if you are waiting for a Note 7 replacement or plan on upgrading soon or switching...

    Moto Z Play Battery Life

    This phone performs well but the Moto Z and Z Force are some of the fastest phones that exist (only the iPhone 7 and One Plus Three are faster). The Moto Z Play is a mid range phone and the Axon 7, Honor 8, One Plus 3, and Idol 4s all cost less and have better CPU/GPU performance and take...

    Moto Z Play Battery Life

    It seems like Moto made a lot of good decisions with this phone. The only thing I think is an issue is the price - I think it is just a touch too expensive (the unlocked version at $449 when it comes out).

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

    You really should have some kind of security on your phone. You don't want people to be able to access your personal files if you somehow lose your phone/it is stolen. Anyone could get your phone and factory reset it before you could even wipe it.

    April update 2016

    Flashing images does wipe your data - what is you want to do is get the OTA file (the poster below you is asking for that).

    Re: S7 edge Battery life is very good Wow is the only word I have for this kind of battery life.

    Nexus 6P - I pulled the plug and went to Cricket - very happy

    Re: I pulled the plug and went to Cricket - very happy I am on AT&T GoPhone and they charge about 50 cents in taxes. I pay $55.50 a month for 5 GB of data (with 30 day rollover). If Cricket is completely tax free then I might consider them. I am debating between possibly switching to either...

    Why is there so much dislike for the Blackberry Priv?

    I think that BlackBerry is just fighting an uphill battle. If you are buying a phone on contract - then you are mostly likely going to buy an iPhone or Samsung device. If you are buying off contract - then you are going to get a bang for the buck device like the Moto G, Nexus 6, or a flagship...

    Moto or Nexus? Why'd you get your Moto?

    I had the Moto X 2013 and 2014 and the phone only had 3 things to improve on - battery life, camera quality, and storage limitation. The Moto X Pure improves on all 3 of these issues - they hit it out of the park by offering an SD card slot. The only reason why I bought the Nexus 6p is because...
