Hi everyone!
I'm coming from an iPhone 6 and trying to figure out if the Z Play is right for me. I'm very familiar with Android phones-my last one used was a Note 5.
Anyhow, my iPhone is suffering from this latest update and I am charging over 2 times a day. Blah. So I'm upgrading early.
I am attracted to this phone due to the sick battery life, the fact it's zero dollars on my plan, and that it comes with a free JBL mod from my carrier. (I'm in Canada)
I played around with it yesterday and it seemed a wee bit large for my hands, but nothing I can't deal with or get used to.
I'm a power user and hate waiting for apps to load. I like a snappy interface. It's hard to tell from their demo what's real, though. Is it very responsive?
One thing that seems petty but drove me nuts was the font on some apps like YouTube and a few others. It seemed thick and like it had a yellow highlight around it? It was a bit hard to read. Is this an option that's configurable? I'm hoping it was just their stupid demo...
I take a lot of photos, but if this camera is on par or better than what I used on my old iPhone 4S, I would be fine with that.
I am trying to choose between this and the S7 Edge. I think the edges might drive me a little bonkers on the S7. Has anyone had any experience comparing both? I don't need all the fancy S7 options, but the battery and look is nice.
Last and most important question: How is the heat on this phone? I hate phones that get really warm, and that's one reason I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on an S7-every Sammy phone I've had seems like it warms up pretty quick.
I was hoping the Motorola runs very cool. My iPhone barely got warm and that is my preference.
Thanks so much for any insight on these questions.
