S7 Edge to G5 Plus

[bchain996]

Like the title says am I crazy? I've owned just about every flagship you can think about in the United States save for the G6 and S8 and just want something different. My Moto x 2013 was one of my favorite devices because of the size, fluidity of UI, twist to open camera, great battery life, near stock Android. What do you guys think will I regret switching to G5 Plus 4gb?

Unless you use Android pay and don't mind not receiving​ monthly security updates, it seems like a nice phone, especially for the price. Considering getting one myself.

I switched from a iPhone 7+ to a unlocked G5 and I'm very pleased with the phone ,NFS would of been nice but no deal breaker ,very speedy phone easy to navigate ,no bloat ware lots of pros , the only thing I really miss from the iPhone is adjustable color I like a warmer color easier on the eyes but no complaints here great purchase at a affordable price

I got it love everything about it so far only complaint is camera is not very good at all and not sure if I can live with it day to day but I'll hold my judgment for a few days

Yes the iPhone camera or S7 camera our Superior but remember your comparing a mid level $300 phone to a flag ship ,so your Nissan will never be as good as your Mercedes

Yeah for the price it's good but in my situation I am comparing the too. Outdoors I'd almost argue my G5 takes better pics.

Wow that is better , I have heard low light has issues but haven't tried that yeat
Been putting this G5 Thur some hard use and it's doing really good ,call quality has been Superior too switched to Cricket after many years with Sprint , also running a 64 g memory card so my available space is 115g right now.
My brother printer won't print from the phone but I'm guessing it's Android 7 so I need to contact the app administrator

Yeah low light is mediocre as is front camera but again at this price point it's good

I wish I could tell you but I haven't used a headphone jack in years everything I have is Bluetooth

Am trying to understand the reasoning behind the downgrade from S7 edge to G5 Plus. Why did you do it?

I ended up taking back my G5 Plus due to camera and losing Samsung pay

I'm actually looking to go to the S7 edge from a G4 Plus. My wife's iPhone 5 just started to be a bit too flakey, so I gave her my 6S that I originally bought for her when I switched to tmobile.

tmobile just dropped the price on the edge to $480, so for an out of pocket/tax refund splurge, I thought it was worth it. My other option would have been to look at LG G6 - but can't get over how my G3 that I loved simply crapped out- or the Moto G5/Plus.

I love my G4, but the battery has started to not seemingly last like it used to- which is why I'm such a fan of a removable battery...
