Samsung S8

They still suck. Especially the way they cover the volume and power buttons etc.. you don't get the same feel feedback.

I disagree. Even though i recently started to use one, i don't have any issues with it at all. It even looks good on the phone. I will see if i can get a pic.

I think if you invest (the phone is a huge investment)into a nice case, those are the ones that are functional.

But regardless, they do take away from the phones look amd styling. Might as well make a brick phone and focus completely on covers lol

Try Urban Armour Gear Bouncer. The Feedback on the rubber buttons is amazing. To me, they feel better than actually pressing the real buttons. Only thing is the cases are kind of pricey and they do kill the look of the phone, very bulky. Used UAG on my last 2 phones and they kept my phone looking new. Had my Note 4 been waterproof, I would have still been using it. Just purchased a S7 edge.

I just keep my nice phone out of as much danger as possible, I hate cases. For the gym I use my old phone for music and leave my nice phone at home. My old phone can still make calls and do everything over the gyms wifi so even though my old phone has no actual cell service it still functions like any phone as long as there is wifi.

What's wrong with the s7 edge?

Dropped my phone in a puddle yesterday and so now the battery doesn't charge. Was thinking about just getting the same phone through my insurance but don't want to wait a few days for a refurbished phone.

Need a phone ASAP and don't want to wait a month. Don't care for for New Gimmicks. Just need a reliable phone that gets me on the Internet and has good battery life.
I was thinking the S7 or S7 edge.

I know I'm still using my s6 edge just fine lol.

Get the Google pixel phone. You'll be first to get the latest Android updates and you won't have to deal with Samsung OS layed overtop of Android OS. Just pure Android as Google intended it. No bloatware.

That's what I have now. I got that when I had to return my note 7. Great phone and amazing pictures. I do have to say though that s8 looks fierce

I just can't deal with the Samsung OS. It looks outdated to me. I wish they would just allow it to be pure Android.

I agree though, they make great hardware in terms of the look of the phone, screen, and camera. If Samsung made a pure Android phone without the shitty Samsung software installed overtop of Android I would seriously consider it.

The pre-installed shit does drive me nuts too

Agreed.

But ways to disable it. So it becomes less annoying

[Bouncer]

You can't disable it Rado. The OS is there. You may be able to make it less annoying by turning off certain "features" but it cannot be turned off, the main Samsung OS is always there right in your face.

Gotcha. Well i guess i do enough that it doesn't annoy me. But im with you man, wish they'd get rid of that garbage. Im with AT&T now and verizon is even worse.

Another thing I love about the Google pixel XL is I have a ridiculous amount of storage and memory. Not even close to filling it and I have alot of stuff. No need for sd card.

Had i gotten myself one of the XL, then i would of not been getting my S8

[razo]

Yea, I've been using Samsung for too long to switch. I do have a account with Samsung that controls a bunch of security features on my phone and I have a ton of S Notes, so I am pretty much stuck with Samsung. Plus switching phones is painless, swap a sd card, and transfer stuff from the cloud, done.

I will admit though that S8 is a beauty. I've always been a Samsung guy myself. I absolutely loved my note 7. To this day I will say that was the best phone I've ever had. Sucks because I never had an issue whatsoever with mine. When I gave it back the next best thing was the pixel XL.
