What Replacement Phone Have You Decided On?

[Joeykool]

I went to 3 different phone carrier stores yesterday in hopes of checking out the upcoming Pixel XL and LG V20, but no one has any demo units yet (even though pre-orders have begun on both on various carriers).
I handled the S7 Edge, but for some reason I wasn’t totally enamored with it.
Does anyone know if the V20’s main 16mp camera is the same as what’s on the V10 and G5? If so, every comparison I’ve seen shows it not as good as the S7 and that would turn me off from that phone. Pre-production reviews don’t show it comparing well to the S7 as well.
I had been leaning towards that one, but now I might be back at square one. S7 Edge may be the only choice right now to keep the features I want, but in a phone smaller than I’d like and with less internal memory than I need.
And can you confirm that on Verizon, if I do a new lease for any of these new phones, I can get out of it after the phone is 50% paid/1 year and move the lease plan to a new phone (ideally the Note 8 or whatever they decide to call it)? I refuse to get stuck for 2 years for a phone I do not want…

I had a v10... the Camera is amazing and it has manual mode which allows you to do so much more. I loved to take macros with it... excellent detail

I went with the S7 Active myself. I miss the bigger screen for sure, but wanted the bigger battery and durability.

I hear the S7 Actives are catching fire at an alarming rate, and may be next in line for a recall.

Would you consider the V10 camera better than the Note 7 in your opinion?

Waiting to pre-order the v20 from sprint Friday. Thought about switching to Verizon for the pixel but couldn't justify the monthly price increase. Also they wanted money down to order it.

I'm currently using an S7 edge but I think I am going to return it and get the V20. I like the S7 edge but think the V20 will be a better experience if even only because it is new. And it has an IR blaster

You can buy the Pixel from Google and it will work on Sprint.

N5 (64G) or S7E, I can't decide.....HELP!

I honestly did not have the n7 long enough to really play with it. I hear the n7 is a little better but the v20 has manual controls to do more with.

I had the S7 Edge for a couple days turned it in for the Note 5 for a couple more days actually more like a week now I've decided to go back to the door and Edge that one has a little more features that I like and I love the overall appearance of it especially with a nice case

That's goes for all the S7s

Really? I haven't heard this

 

[amyf27]

I had only heard about a couple isolated instances for the S7 phone

Sounds like the IP67 may be sealing them up too much.

Unfortunately I don't have 900 to buy a new phone. I need the financing option.

Google currently offers payment plans for their Pixel phones

pre-ordered the V20 today. Very strongly considered the iPhone 7+, but since the version I wanted (128gb) isn't shipping til mid-November at the earliest, just went with the V20. I better not go through the bootloop issue like I did with the G4.

 

[amyf27]

It's official now for me. I just got home with my (2nd) S7Edge and it's now here to stay. Exchanged note 5 for it.

I am using my note4 unlocked was att phone now I am on tmobile.I am deciding between s7edge or v20.but I have never preordered.i want to see phone 1st ie the v20.

I'm trying to decide between Note 5 or S7 active. Had an S7 edge wasn't a fan of the curves. The note 7 curves were not as curved haha

Traded my Note 5 in to upgrade to the 7 on Sprint. Bought another Note 5 off eBay today to replace the Note 7 I have to return. Full circle lol. I considered the S7 edge but I favor the S Pen on a still very relevant phone than the slight software enhancements on the Edge. The only difficult part of the decision was the advantage the Edge has with the memory card
