HTC going full blown reerun with this one. Got rid of the dual front boom sound speakers, back to their trash ultrapixel camera, and taking an iPhone/Samsung and making it look like shit all at the same time. I guess when your company is slowly going down the drain Blackberry style then you have to change something up, right?

Need a new phone? Looking at a S7/S7 edge? AT&T customer with Directv?

Quote:

Starting April 1, and ending on April 30, AT&T will allow you to buy a Galaxy S7 or S7 edge, and receive a free Samsung Smart TV. However, there are some requirements that you have to meet to qualify for the offer: the S7 or S7 edge smartphone must be bought on an AT&T Next plan, and you need to be subscribed to AT&T's DIRECTV service (which starts at $29.99 per month). The TV that AT&T is giving away is a 48-inch Samsung J550D series LED Smart TV, which seems to be a model from 2014, currently costing around $700.

Even though it appears to be an old TV it's got pretty good reviews.

Scumbags.


Add this number to your contact list:

1 214 666 4 3 2 1

When you get a spam call answer it, and then dial that number on a separate call. Once it picks up merge the calls and mute your phone, set it down and walk away. It's an AI that will pretend to hold a conversation with the spammer.

Not sure this is threadworthy, but Android N is officially out for Nexus phones. Key features in my opinion:

Multi-window (split screen between multiple apps)
Quick switching (kind of like alt-tabbing on a computer)
Doze now works in a pocket or purse
Improvements to notifications and quick settings
Future OS updates will happen in the background (kind of like Chrome)

Anyway, more details here:

Note 7 is amazing. Great phone, screen is like an orgasm

Pre-ordered the S8 today. First time Ive ever pre-ordered anything in my life. Thought about the Plus but ultimately decided the .4" of screen wasnt worth the extra bulk in my pocket. Plus the regular S8 still has more screen than my current Nexus 6p.

I normally dont upgrade so fast, only had the 6p for a little over a year and I loved it at first but the battery life is turning to shit. Bought my daughter one too and exactly 2 weeks after the warranty was up her screen wouldn't turn on. These things have great reviews but in my experience their longevity is garbage.

I feel very confident the S8 will be the greatest phone ever made. After the Note 7 fiasco you can bet Samsung made damn sure these things would be superb quality.

The S8 is definitely among the most striking looks for a phone in a long time.

You hanging on to your 6p's or trading them in/selling? I've had a 6p for year and a half....my favorite phone ever. Cracked the screen almost a year ago (still perfectly functional but slightly annoying). Think I'm waiting the phone market out to replace until the Pixel 2 hits, but I might be interested in your 6p if you're selling? Let me know!

Regarding the 6P and the battery, it's a bitch to swap the battery out (though there are plenty of walkthroughs online), but once I did, my phone has been like new. Total cost for the battery plus supplies was probably about $20 (though a heat gun could run you a little more if you don't already have one).

I'll be selling mine, my daughter's screen doesnt light up.

All we can understand that phone is an essential device in our life which could not define us but its necessary to find the best one for ourselves, that you can find here
ne with many available devices and get the best one for yourself that could not be enough sometime.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
