Good evening, a few days ago I come near a Samsung s6310T which I never get up sign H if not sign EDGE always, my sopresa today was that in a mall I get up H and 3G respectively but on having left the above mentioned mall return to fall down in EDGE and do not return to raise H, it is necessary to annotate that I am from Venezuela. I use the operator MOVISTAR and not which can be the problem, if it is for the rom or something similar
Guess I'm gonna have to eventually turn my note 7 in with the updates happening and with what's happening in New Zealand. I know their making a Coral Blue S7 Edge, I wonder when Sprint stores will have it? I wanna wait til then to trade in my note 7.
Hi folks,
I'm a Sprint customer currently using a Samsung S7 and I am right on the edge of getting a decent LTE band 41 connection at my place. I use my phone to tether quite a bit, so that fast LTE connection is important to me.
Do you think I'll see a decent bump in LTE band 41 signal by upgrading from the S7 to the S8? I've read about HPUE and wondered if any of you have seen better LTE connections with the S8 compared to previous phones on Sprint.
If I do upgrade to an S8, I'll probably just buy it off eBay or similar. Is it important that I get one that's tagged by Sprint or will I be okay getting one that's "unlocked?" I don't want to deal with any extra hassle; when I got my S7 I got one that was specifically a Sprint designated phone.
I know it's not a huge leap in capabilities or technology by going from S7 to S8, but I'm all about doing this as cheaply as possible.
I appreciate any feedback on my questions. Or if you have a suggestion I hadn't thought of.
Thanks folks!
Hope everyone is Staying Safe!! I have not posted on this site in a long time.
I have a Note 8, NO PROBLEMS with it and still satisfied with it.
I have read all the specs on the two phones Note 8 and A71. The A71 seems like a very good choice now to upgrade from the Note 8 which I have had for over 3 years.
I looked at the S20 FE and compared the specs on that to the A71 and Note 8.
For the difference in price I think I will go with the A71. I know the S20 has a better refresh rate, but I do not play games and the extra $200 or more for the S20 can not be justified as I am an OLE man.. LOL
What are your opinions on which to get, A71 or S20? Open for all suggestions.
Thanks for your time and help.
Please Stay Safe and Happy Holidays!
I just got through reading the Real Life thread on here. Very good info. Still looking for opinions on worth of moving from Note 8 to A71. Don't really use my phone as a phone. More like a Laptop for News, Notes, etc.
Check slickdeals and you can get the A71 a lot cheaper. Use the Note 8 for trade in and use promo codes from slickdeals for a really good deal.
Thanks for the tip. I have checked many sites for the best price. I have an S7edge ($115) and Note 8 ($185) trade in.
I can buy a refurbished A71a much cheaper without using a trade in. Have used this option on many of previous Note x purchases since the Note 2, with warranty.
I want to keep my Note 8 as it is still a great phone. I always keep a backup phone.
An update on my decision to buy an A71 5g. Ran across a special on Samsung Website and they offered an A71 5g on special.
I traded in an old S7 Edge and bought the A71 for $260. The best deal that I could find as it is brand new, warranty and T-Mobile.
If anyone is interested I can provide the link if that is allowed on this site?
The best deal I could get from T-Mobile was the A71 5g if I took out another phone line for $20/month x 24 months. That would have been $480. The regular price in T-Mobile was $600.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. Please Stay Safe.

Received my A71 5G Black. Did NOT come with a plastic back cover and no ear buds. Called Samsung to question why the ear buds were not included. Their response was: No longer supplied with the phone. NP since I have better ones from my previous phones.
No major problems transferring data from phones (Note 8 to A71.) Some apps would not work on A71. Still setting up some non default settings. Write back in a week to let you know my opinion. So far, GOOD!
Anyone here using US version S22 Ultra or any US version Samsung phone in Japan?
Can you please tell me about battery life and are there any signal/reception/bands issue?
I've bought a t-mobile S8+ and at&t s7 edge on ebay before (around july 2017)
the s8+ was pretty new at that time, I think the battery is still very good but it would drain the battery from 100 to 10 overnight
just standing-by. I even made a factory reset and let it sit overnight but it still drains the battery so bad.
It was the same thing for the s7 edge I bought on ebay
I still don't know what's the reason why or maybe because of incompatible bands??? the phone is trying so hard to search for signal??
I have really good good coverage in my area though, I'm getting an average RSRP reading of -80dBm - -85dBm
I'm still hesitant about buying another one since I don't want to buy Japanese versions of Samsung phone anymore,
and amazon US the only option where I can buy new phone that ships to japan.
