I dislike how bulky the otter boxes make the phones.. But I guess it's better than no phone at all.

Just to clear the air, dont get any apple phone. All the iphones suck. They are kid phones


Basically, they have your newest and updated phones like your galaxy s6, s7, and edge which is just a selling platform for more battery and a very shitty curved edge which will annoy you with the touch screen. Basically they will just have better batteries for the newest models. Not much has changed really. Theres not too much you can do with them anymore.

Your gonna want the note 7. The S series is your standard droid phone. If you would prefer that which is a bit smaller and no stylus get the s6. The s7 is new, but you'll hold the s6 and wonder why they made the 7. The cameras on them are already 4k video, so theres not too much upgrade value there. They're the same exact size. The only good feature (which is the only thing I ever disliked about my note) is that the s7 has a memory slot for your sd cards, and that its amoled. Which you already thought the s6 was because they're insanely bright.
The note 5 never got this feature for memory which was very ballsy at only 32gb and my software on it is 8.53gb, so I get a good 23gb of space. I wouldnt get the s7 unless its the same price as the 6.

Now, for my recommendation I would get the new note 7. Hands down. Not sure if its out yet, but it will be worth the wait. Just ask to see a note 5 if they have one. They skipped a note 6 completely and went from 5 to 7 fyi. I got the note when it came out last august 1 year ago, and its held up very nicely. Not a problem with it. And going from apple to samsung I actually enjoy the software updates and what they did this past year.
I dont have a single scratch on it anywhere, and its still exceptionally fast. It will load nearly anything instantly. Holding it without a case feels amazing. It records in UHD at 3840x2160, FHD 60fps 1920x1080, 1280x720 etc. The music player is very loud and It has great treble/kicks. One of the very cool things is that it operates like a pc where you have system files etc on it, and can create your own to move photos/videos in them. Its basically everything you would ever need in a phone, except its much larger and has its own stylus.

The stylus is awesome too. It feels really cool on the phone. Just be careful cause a new samsung one costs 40$. It nearly feels like a tablet. At first I was wowed at going from an iphone 5s to a screen that was nearly double the size, but now I cant see myself using anything smaller.
Im glad I chose the galaxy note over the galaxy 5/6 at the time. The S series is your basic phones and the notes are the larger more operable devices. Theres no reason not to get the note over the S series. If you watch videos or porn it will make it much better.

My contract is for another year so I might pick up the note 7 next year. I could definitely use my note 5 though, for the next 2 years atleast provided nothing happened to it. Im proud I kept it in great condition with my otterbox. And yeah I dislike cases on my phones too. But for an expensive phone you're going to want one. I have mine with lifeproof glass also. Went through 2 in 12 months, 20$ each is nothing for my phone not having a single scratch.

depends on what you think makes a phone "the best"
I personally love samsung
imo they are good and durable
mine has dents but no cracks
and I've had older models at the bottom of pools that still worked fine

I'm actually glad this topic is up because I'll be in the market soon too
my gf has the s6 edge and she says it's not worth the extra $100 to get the edge over the standard s#
i'm not sure if there are any differences other then the screen

Well, my girl has an S6, so if anything I'd get the 7 just to not have the same phone and get em confused (if they don't have color options)...

I do like the notes, but Holy hell they're so big! Idk if I could pocket that thing all day or not.

Get the LG g5. The reason why I like it better than any Samsung phone right now is because it has a modular design, which means you can swap out the battery like a magazine on a gun. So you can get a spare battery and a charging port so any time you're low you can swap it out and instantly have a fresh 100% battery. It's so satisfying to just click a new battery in and never be tethered to an outlet.  And it has an amazing camera, and a removable SD card slot. I will never buy a phone without a removable battery and SD card.

Ended up getting the S7. Got a standard case and that extra glass thing that's supposed to help reinforce it. :smile:

I'm digging it.

Finally got to download PokΓ©mon :lol: played that for a little while. Had to stop and ask some random people how to play since it wasn't working. I guess the app had froze, so that's why it wasn't working.

But yeah, I'd recommend the S7 to anybody in the market.

I have one more question for y'all...

On this phone it has the standard internet browser and it also has the Google Chrome browser.
Is there an advantage to using one or the other?

I just used the standard (Samsung?) one and did all my bookmarking and such through that and that's what I'm currently using, but wondering if Chrome has advantages that I'm not aware of...?

Thanks.

Chrome has a lot of features, but I have no idea about the default browser's perks.


BlackBerry just released a "low" priced (~$300) Android without any keyboard, touted as the most secure Android right now. I need a new phone myself, but I (really) like keyboards, and they are scheduled to release a new Android with (keyboard) in several months. So, I'm tempted to just get a refurbished Classic/similar in the mean-time.  If they continue losing market share so quickly, I could see that release never happening, though.

My 1st "smartphone" was an HTC Merge and it had a slide-out keyboard. I vowed that all my phones would have that after using that for awhile and then needing a loner phone that didn't have a keyboard (like pretty much every phone out now)... I hated using the screen to type. I hated the amount of screen the keyboard needed when it was in use.



Fast forward a little while and I needed a new phone. There wasn't any phone available with an actual keyboard, so I had to get one without... And now I don't think I'd use a phone with a keyboard :lol: funny how that is...

Just takes a little while to get used to things... But once you got it, it's fine.

I did like that phone quite a bit, though... It was super super heavy though.

I've had a couple touch-only phones myself, but I still like keyboards for whatever reasons. Especially with as big as phones are these days, I'd happily trade in ~1" height for a QWERTY keyboard. Blackberry's Passport IMO was just as comfortable to type on as sliders like that HTC-


My backup for the past several years is a ~2011 LG that looks almost identical. AFAIK, Blackberry is the only brand available through Verizon which has released any recently. I'd be fine with an old phone like that HTC, if they could still run updated apps. Another reason I'm unsure what to do is that the next keyboard BB has had very little info leaked about it, only that they are planning to release one with a keyboard, and one without, this October and next February (With no hint of which/when). I would be pretty frustrated if 5wks from now they release the one with keyboard.

I'm honestly shocked that Blackberry is still around.

I don't understand what the big deal was back (what was it?) 8-10 years ago with them.

Well back then they had the best phone operating system. It got eclipsed over the years by both android and iphone OS's.

They were at the forefront as business phones and had a lot of shit that nobody else was doing at the time. Full QWERTY keyboards and the like.
What really made them the craze as a business solution was push email integration. It was a huge deal that nobody was doing outside of Asia at the time, but RIM never really continued to innovate after the 2011 blackberry crash.


It's definitely a miracle that they're still around.

Yeah I guess that was likely before I was in the market for a smartphone when I was still using those indestructible Nokias
