    Buy now, wait for 7A or wait for Pixel 8

    Here's an argument to wait for the pixel 9. Reportedly the major carriers have finally realized how much they messed up with 5g and how crappy it has been for just about every user. Next year they're about to roll out a new version of 5g (I believe it will be called 5g advanced but I'm not sure)...

    Beware Samsung Trade Ins

    Last year I detailed my experience in a lengthy post of how my wife's like new, near perfect condition note 20 ultra was shipped to samsung as a trade in and according to samsung it apparently arrived to them in an empty box. I am assuming either the trade in department was lying or someone with...

    Trade in Values for S23 Ultra

    Tradeins toward the s22 ultra were much better. I remember because I was one of the forum members last year who had their note 20 ultra trade in stolen by fedex and Samsung was trying to charge me $600 for it. I also remember the s21 ultra had a trade in value of $700 or $800 and Samsung gave...

    Finally there's an in depth review of the pixel 7/7 pro modem performance https://www.androidauthority.com/google-pixel-7-connectivity-reception-issues-3220800/

    Are you planning to get the Pixel 7?

    I was seriously considering upgrading my pixel 6 to the 7 until I heard that Google is still going to use a Samsung modem in the pixel 7. Imo the biggest problem with the pixel 6 & 6 pro is its crappy modem. It's fine if you have really good reception but if you are in an area where the service...

    Fedex stole my fold 4 return

    It's still basically the same issue though because his device was entrusted to FedEx for shipment and apparently it was stolen on the way to Samsung. Since it was a return Samsung most likely generated the return shipping label which means he will not be able file a claim with FedEx. FedEx will...

    Fedex stole my fold 4 return

    And I want to add to the op of this thread to file a claim with the BBB. Make sure, however, that your claim is specific and details exactly what went wrong as well as what you want for a resolution. I think what helped me to finally get results from Samsung was how detailed and specific my...

    Fedex stole my fold 4 return

    I'm going to weigh in with this thread. I made a lengthy post about this issue close to 1 year ago when my wife's note 20 Ultra trade in was stolen through FedEx. Samsung was going to charge me $600 and dealing with their customer service was absolutely horrendous. It also won't work to try to...

    Non stop SPAM calls & SPAM messages. How can I get my life back?

    Unfortunately the Google phone app will not do call screening on any other phone except a pixel phone. I found this out first hand when I went from my pixel 6 to a used S21 Ultra. Most of the Google phone app features work except for the call screening. Call screening on pixel phones is a strong...

    Pixel 6 Pro on sale at Google Store

    Even though it's probably several months until the 6/6 pro comes out I would still wait for the 7. I have a feeling that Google is going to fix the main issues with the 6 (fingerprint sensor, weak modem, tensor update issues) to the point where the 7 will almost become the perfect Google phone...

    So far I'm very happy.

    Regretfully I decided this week to move on from my pixel 6. I really did enjoy its strengths but the issues I had were big enough to where I felt that it was unacceptable considering that there were other choices out there without those same issues. There were some things about my pixel I really...

    My Phone Was Stolen

    Sadly, I can add my recent experience to this message board. Just last week I sent a trade-in to Samsung as part of my s22 ultra purchase. My wife is a faithful note user (from as far back as the days of the note edge!) and she has been waiting patiently for an upgrade for her Note 20 ultra...

    My Phone Was Stolen

    Whenever I've had problems with my packages possibly being stolen it's always through fedex. I realize that other carriers have issues too (especially USPS) but from my experience fedex seems to give me the most trouble with missing stuff. A few years ago I ordered a $400+ office chair from...

    So much disappointment (S22 Ultra, US T-mobile)

    This might be true. I found the buds live really uncomfortable until I realized I was wearing them wrong. I would rate them now as the most comfortable ear buds I've ever worn. I do prefer my Sony xm buds because I think they have much better features. I got the buds live for free in a preorder...

    Finger Print Reader Unlock Performance

    This sounds like a "user error" comment and I respectfully disagree. This fps is the absolute worst fingerprint sensor I have ever used on a phone. I was a nexus 6p owner many years ago. That fps was awesome. I've owned a note 9, note 20 ultra, and a z fold 2. All of those phones had fps that...
