Hello all! First of all, this phone it's a flagship and cost twicely vs. normal phones. For me it's a unpriority investement.

I am thinking of getting this phone.
I got questions:
1. It is a little smaller then the non edge ones right?
2. I read lots of accidental touching because of the edge that make for some annoying user experience. Your thoughts?

Samsung phone choices...I need clarity

I am about to sell my Dell Streak and three replacements seem to be coming out very shortly.
Samsung Hercules
Samsung Galaxy SII HD
Samsung Note
Right now I am confused on the release dates of each of these items and availability to T-Mobile users. I don't want to get involved in another ATT propriety phone that will have bandwidth issues. Long of it short, when are the release dates on the last two phones, and what are the bandwidths that will be available? Is pricing available on the last two also?
Samsung Galaxy S2 (Hercules) model is true Quad x Quad band
Quad band 2G (Voice/EDGE) + Quad band 3G/4G
so you can really go any where, any network and enjoy both voice and internet at high speed
that is the one coming out Oct 12 at T-mobiles USA for $230, and possibly unlocked with some luck
the Galaxy Note is due out in November sometimes, the phone is gigantic, 5.6" not sure if you want that, might as well get a tablet if it was me.
Samsung Galaxy S2 HD is only going to be release to Korea soon, no words when it will be available in the rest of the world

I knew the Hercules would be a non-issue phone, but I wanna make sure I am getting the best phone for me.
Will the Note be available on T-Mobile bands? The size doesn't bother me, it is similar to a Dell Streak's dimensions and I believe even lighter in weight.
I m also a bit confused on the processor difference between the SII versions and apparently the Hercules has an oddball processor? Is this of real consequence or more nit picking?
it's the latter, people are just nit picking, and being biased by some synthetic bench scores
as for the Note, they have not yet released enough Tech Spec details to indicate the network type
I'm considering getting a note as well, it has its merits for its size, and screen resolution.
makes good for work, without carrying a heavy or large tablet/laptop with you
I think you should go for galaxy S II, its quite cool..
Best decision for you - sony ericsson
Let me make it more complicated for you!!
Samsung has recently announced new generation of Exynos 4212. It uses 32nm fab process and they claim that 50% increase in 3D graphics performance. Has to be more power efficient. No real time tests done yet obviously, but I think we can trust Samsung on hardware internals. They gave 2 stunning SoCs in GS and GS2. Not sure which phone(s) will have this internals.
Add to this they introduced 20nm fab for DDR3 RAM.
Over that add new camera modules. 1/2.3-inch 16 MP CMOS sensor with backside illumination. 1/2.3 should be same like normal point-n-shoot cams. This they claim can shoot 60fps video at 8MP.
No idea which phones will have those. Sure GS3 will have the cam module and DDR. Not too sure about SoC as they are in-line to pump out Q-Core with Mali-T604 GPU.
Choose your poison.

S7 Edge blue vs OnePlus 3T 128GB soft gold

Hi all,
I just saw the announcement of the upcoming OnePlus 3t and I have to admit it's a damn beautiful phone with awesome specs. Actualy I wanted to buy the S7 Edge dual Sim in blue (It reminds me on the Note 7. R.I.P:angel but now I have to admit that the OnePlus 3T, esp. the 128Gb version in soft gold is a competitor that doesn't make it easy for me to make a decision.
I'm comparing the S7 Edge Dual Sim version in blue (available on ebay with higher price than in other colours) and the OnePlus 3T with 128GB.
I compared both and made 2 lists with categories where I think each phone has his strenghts
S7 Edge Winner Points
Camera
Battery 3.600 vs. 3400
Screen to Body Ratio 76,09% vs. 73,15%
Water resistant
OnePlus 3T Winner Points
Performance 6GB Snapdragon 821 vs. 4 GB Exynos 8890
Memory 128GB vs. 32GB (Sd-Card Extension only possible with hack)
Price 479€ vs. 610€
Dash Charge
Things that I have problem with making an assessment are:
Look & Feel: How does each phones lies in you hand. Which one looks and feels more premium for you? What are your opinions?
OS: Which OS do you like more? I'm comparing the upcoming Android N versions of both phones. Oxygen OS looks promising on pictures. The upcoming Grace UI, I have to admit, I love the design. Ive never thought that I would say this to a Samsung phone with Touchwiz. And I have the feeling Samsung has more customizing options and build in tools. What do you think? Especially I'm curios of the opinion of Samsung/ OnePlus Beta Users and/or the user with Note 7 experience.
So what dou you think? I know that we are discussing here in the Samsung part, but hey they are just phones not a women that we are comparing
It's really hard. The water resistant is in my personal opinion the only reason to buy the s 7 edge.
But it's your choice. I would buy the one plus.
But as I say, it's on you, what do you like more, camera or performance, water resistant or metal body? The s7e is sensitive like a newborn.
Do you need storage?
Good battery?

In GPU yes, CPU no
820 wins in Antutu for example simply because of the GPU. 8890 wins in single and multi core performance. 8890 also uses less energy than the 820/821
Okay I made my decision. The Edge wins for me. I'll miss the 128gb internal storage & the 6gb of Ram, damn, but the edge display and Grace UX are looking just to good that I'll go for my first Samsung device. Emotions win over logic [emoji41]

S7 edge cpu faster than S8+

I use a S7 edge SM-G935F Exynos 8890 for trading on the go. I got a new S8+ SM-G955F Exynos 8895 and when I do simultaneous trades on both phones, the S7 edge is faster every time. Is this because the S7 processor is 2.6Ghz and the S8+ is 2.3Ghz. Just thought the new S8+ would execute faster.
If GHz matters, why aren't 2008 computers faster than 2017 computers? 2008 computers often have a higher GHz than 2017 computers.. Yawn...
Geekbench doesn't say the same..

Please remember that the operating system has been improved from update to update, the Galaxy 7 / Edge was not so from the beginning. Let it be at the performance or RAM managment. It has been constantly improved, I think after 1-2 firmware updates, the Galaxy S8 / + will get a similar performance leap.
Gesendet von meinem SM-A520F mit Tapatalk
I don't find the s8+ any different from the s7 edge I think it's true to say it's not really worth the upgrade from the s7 edge to the s8+. Don't get me wrong I like the s8+ just like I did the s7 edge
Side by side with my S8+ and S7E, the S8+ is faster and better at everything I have done. The display is noticeably nicer/brighter with better colors on the S8+. The display size to phone size ratio is obviously far superior on the S8+. Way more display, barely any bigger phone overall.
As far as apps, etc, the S8+ is just faster. I thought I would miss the hardware home button, but have not missed it at all. I rarely lock my phone so having the fingerprint scanner on the back has not been an issue.
Pictures are far superior on the S8+. I realize the most of the hardware is the same or close to the same in both phones, but the S8+ takes noticeable better pics. Especially low light pics, but all pics.
I really can't complain about the S8+. I only used my S7E for a few months once they bricked my Note 7, and the S7E was good. Not as good as my Note 7 was, but not that much of a downgrade. But the S8+ truly does make the S7E seem dated in several ways. These may be areas that most people aren't overly concerned about, and truly the S7E is a fine phone and could last many people several years of quality usage yet. But it is still not as nice as the S8/S8+. That is just how these things work - almost always newer versions will be better. I expect the Note 8 to have several enhancements that make it better than the S8+. As a long time Note phone user, I will be very tempted to sell my S8+ and get the Note 8, but for now I am very happy with what I have. And I kept my S7E as my backup phone so worst case scenario I have a very good phone in case I lose or break my S8+. Win/Win.
The S8Plus is faster than a speeding bullet (Exynos version)!
Your first post! Welcome to XDA!
3dMark also has the S8+ snapdradon version faster than even the S8+ with the exynos chip.
My S7E ran like a Honda missing half it's spark plugs. I am willing to say it's the worst phone I've ever owned and I have owned a loooooot.

Samsung is working on a Galaxy S8 Active, according to Netflix

Samsung IS working on a Galaxy S8 Active, according to Netflix...
It seems that despite both the current and last generation of Samsung Galaxy flagships being waterproof, Samsung still doesn't want to let go of the "Active" sub-brand of durable and weatherproof phones.
Details have leaked online of the Galaxy S8 Active with the codename Cruiser and the model number SM-G892A. Now, however, Netflix appears to have outed the fact that this particular model number supports HD streaming by referencing it in a support document.
And now we've got a set of leaked live photos of the handset, giving our best view of it to date. It showed up on multiple Reddit posts, in a video on YouTube (below), and via Android Central's forums. We get a good look at the front and back of the device and, unsurprisingly,it's very similar to the regular Galaxy S8 aesthetic, although it has that polycarbonate build and is noticably chunkier; 1.5x thicker, in fact.

Wait, are you sure? Even though it's an AT&T release?
This link says Snapdragon.
http://www.digit.in/mobile-phones/s...d-non-curved-display-battery-leaks-36157.html
The*Galaxy S8 Active*runs Android 7.0 Nougat and lacks an underwater camera mode like last year's S7 Active.The handset is powered by Snapdragon 835 SoC coupled with 4GB RAM and 64GB expandable storage

As does this one:
https://www.engadget.com/2017/07/24/samsung-galaxy-s8-active-leaked-images/
The leaker supposedly got ahold of the phone from a pal who works for Samsung. Internally, the phone is pretty similar to the standard*S8*and has a Snapdragon 835 CPU, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage

Would be good if it's Exynos, so bootloader could be unlocked. But since it's an AT&T exclusive, I doubt it. Probably Snapdragon 835 (with locked down bootloader), like all the other North America S8.
I'll be happy to be wrong!
I would switch from tmobile if its true

galaxy s7 active vs galaxy A5 2017

alright so I sold my galaxy a5 520W in frustration and was going to pick up the proper 520F or even the Dual sim version..
however my GF just showed me the galaxy S7 active! looks like it has everything but its only a year older.... now that were in 2018 both phones are cheap but a refurbished galaxy s7 active is cheaper and looks to be superior in specs!
ok so which phone should I get between the two? the A5 is alittle newer but is missing some things (LED, not as strong battery, image stabilization) and the s7 active has those things...
also the s7 active WORKS with nextradio! I'd prefer the regular samsung fm radio app but I'll settle for working nextradio
alright so which one would be the better buy? does s7 active work on canada bands? its even cheaper... it looks like a better deal... but the A5 looks like it'll last longer (strange considering the "military grade build)
