Need a new phone

[Scrumhalf]

I like my software to be light and lean. I went from HTC to Moto to the 5X. Each is better than the previous one in terms of being very light.

I make good use of some of it. The rest was hidden day one and never seen again. Out of sight out of mind.

[Scrumhalf]

If you enjoy all the bloatware, then more power to you. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I've been laughing about how you two are awed by features that Samsung has already had like I laughed when iPhone finally got copy and paste. Basing Samsung opinions on old plastic hardware with poor tolerances and old bloated laggy OS that isn't even close to what it has been over the last year. Night and day difference. But go ahead and enjoy your new phones I won't blast, I'll just sit here and enjoy my "POS" and Lol.

After almost a week with the phone, I've got to admit that pure Android is a joy. And that's coming from a guy who had a Moto X, which is pretty light. I can only imagine what it must feel for someone from a POS like a Samsung.

How is it so far bouncer? Did you already update it to the newest OS?

Phone did it automatically.

Yeah, haven't played with the sensor enough. I know that with the Moto X, all I need to do is go wave my hands over the phone and the display comes on.

[Bouncer]

No it's just a move sensor. You move the phone about 2-3 inches and doze screen comes on in black and white.

Haven't called anyone with it. I probably use mine as a talk device less then you. I hate talking on the phone.

[Scrumhalf]

How's the WiFi calling working? Haven't used the phone as a phone a lot as nobody calls me :( .

[Scrumhalf]

Scratch that, you do have to move the phone a bit to get time and notifications to show on doze screen. Right?

It works best for me when I have the phone facing my face. Don't know if it has a face recognition feature or what. If I pick it up when the screen is dark and hold it facing my face, the display comes on immediately.

[Scrumhalf]

Yup sure did. I also like how it shows you the time or your notifications simply by moving your hand in the area of the phone. No need to even touch it.

My Moto X has that feature and it works extremely well, even better than with the 5X.

Sprint sucks near my house because my work phone has one bar on a good day. But I get a pretty strong signal on Fi, so it must be using TMobile where I am.

[Bouncer]

Tested my LTE speed, same exact speed in my house as when I had sprint so I'm guessing fi is using sprint at this location.

LoL @ sprint putting me on hold 3 times to cancel. Cocks.
