The worst thing about giving up my Note 7....

[blackhawk77#WN]

I keep trying to unlock my Note 4 by trying to stare at it and use my retina's! I can't stop doing it, lol

The one feature of the Note I couldn't care more about and never used but to see if it worked (it didn't for me... glasses). haha And that's why I like Samsung phones: they throw everything on their phones, so even if you don't use one feature, there's always one more to keep you entertained

Especially the "pocket warmer" feature on the 7. I was going to buy one before they came out - but it's not that cold here.

The screen, the sleekness, Samsung pay and the camera.

I miss the iris scanner as well.

I'm glad I'm not alone; I keep doing the same thing with my Note 4. And then when I remember and go to fingerprint unlock, I forget to swipe down. I also keep double clicking the home button, expecting the camera app to open. It's been one full day, and I'm a mess when it comes to relearning this phone, apparently. The Note 4 I'm using is still a good phone, but it's the little things, y'know?

The iris scanner worked flawlessly for me with or without glasses on both Note 7's I had. The only time I ever had trouble was when I used it at the beach in bright sunlight.

The worse thing about giving up the Note 7 is....giving up the Note 7.

Ain't that the truth, I was going to pick up a pixel xl 128 but that's not available until late Dec. At that point I might as well wait for the next Samsung flagship. Hopefully a new battery in my Note 4 will tide me over for a while.

The AOD! It's the major thing that pi@@es me off about the Pixel XL. I hate not being able to glance down and see notifications. That and the sound quality during calls sucks on this. It was so clear on the 7.

 

[budven]

I ordered the Pixel. One day Verizon offered a 20% off coupon and a $200 credit with the trade in of an old phone. So I took the plunge. It is back ordered until Dec. 9. I hope I don't regret getting it.

I still don't want to give up my Note 7. Nothing else measures up to that device.

That's why I'm team Samsung. Give me all the features possible. Who cares if I don't use them. You literally could unlock the phone 3 different ways and I had them all enabled. PIN, fingerprint, and iris.

Exactly. I'd rather have it and don't use it than want it and don't have it. I love options.

The iris scanner is useful as hell when you're a grease monkey like me. That way instead of having to remove my gloves I could just leave it wherever it was resting, stare at it without having to remove my glove to unlock it. For someone like me, definitely a cool and often used feature. Hell it was faster than the FPS usually

The S-pen. I bought a stylus to work with my LG v20 that I'm having to carry with me. Once you get used to the precision of navigating, etc., with the S-pen, using your fingers to navigate just won't cut it.

For example, I use google voice for most input like texting. But, it occasionally gets a word or two wrong here or there, and you want to get the cursor exactly in the right spot, but with your finger (and I have very long fingernails) I have to try 3 or 4 times usually to get the cursor in just the right place - that kind of thing.

Basically, the S-pen was like a mouse for the phone. It was also very helpful browsing websites that were not mobile friendly. Customers signing in Square for CC's. making notes on screenshots. taking quick notes... <can't see through the tears...>

The 2nd thing - the Edge screen. Didn't use it for the first week or so - thought it was gimmicky. Then I started using it for the People Edge and the Apps Edge, and WOW! used it a lot! a whole lot...

The display... that amoled display... the colors... I miss the display a lot. Iris scanner... FM radio... speed... styling...

being a menace to society...

I'm really looking forward to see what the Note 8 has to offer; I expect it to be a much improved version of the Note 7. Hopefully the cost won't be too outrageous.

The retina scanner didn't work with your glasses? I was able to do it with my sunglasses on, it should work with glasses on.

 

[omgitselaine]

I had no issues wearing my glasses and unlocking using the retina scanner as well. I

One of the best features of the Note 7 IMHO

 

[Jaycemiskel]

Iris scanner also worked for me with my glasses and my contacts. Worked quick as hell too. I mostly used it when my hands were wet.

Lol nice. I'm from a different school of thought. PIN, can never fail you. "Old Reliable".
