coming back - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di

So after 3 or so month I've been on the one plus 3. And honestly though I dislike Samsung touch wiz. I learned that there is no longer a need to root device. I like the one plus quite a lot if you ask me definitely worth the price maybe a little more. But idk just some stuff I miss about the s7. I'm sure an s7 edge rooted would be a perfect phone. But we can't have all. If you tried the one plus and came back. Let me know what made you come back.

I came from one plus 3 to flat s7. Main reason was camera.

Honestly one plus 3 camera was major disappointment. Night and day difference. S7 camera blows one plus 3 camera away.

I'm torn.... Lil help

Current note 3 owner and just got an invite from a friend.
Debating on jumping into this device and was wondering what everyone's opinion is by comparison?
I have a tmobile note 3, unlocked & rooted running wicked rom with aosp theme.
My most important factors are battery & camera.
Thanks

I have the exact same Note III running Tweaked and the same theme.
The battery on the OnePlus One crushes my Note III, as for the camera...well it's about a tie. I do miss eraser mode from my Note III bit not enough to start using it again.
I've had my OnePlus One for about two months now and my poor Note III just sits on my desk. I just updated it to the latest Tweaked the other day but it still just sits there.

Good to know man thanks. I might pick it up and then jump on the note 4 in a few months.
I jumped from a note 3 just last week and got the phone last night. So far I'm loving it way more than my note. Granted, I was on the att note 3 so I didn't have an unlocked bootloader. But build wise I think this phone feels better in my hand than the note did.

Note 3 is better all in all. And the battery is better and the camera.
I'm not sure why people ask these questions, there's no real answer, only opinions.

I read the OP, I still fall to see the point. As you can see you get one guy saying 'X' is better and another guy saying 'Y' is better. In the end you get no useful information and you need to make the decision for yourself.

I can see the point, it's kind of like bouncing an idea off of someone.
Sure he was probably already leaning one way or another but the majority of people seem to agree and resonate with his opinion, so that's the choice he's choosing. Had they not agreed, maybe he wouldn't have or maybe he would, either way he'd probably feel better that 'some' people see it the same as him.
That's my thoughts anyway, I like reading these, as long as they aren't huge lol. I think they serve a good enough purpose for the people creating them.
But that's just my opinion

I have both an international note 3 and a Oneplus one.
The Oneplus camera is better in low light.
Oneplus battery subjectively seems slightly better due to less bloatware apps running in the background.
The Oneplus firmware is also much smoother again due to lack of bloat.
Only real advantage of note 3 is the pen itself so if you don't need that I'd go for it.

I also have Note 3 T mobile running Tweaked. Love it. I did have a Oneplus One as well. I also liked that one. I had to send it back however as my volume keys did not work. Actually right now, I am trying to decide if I want to try with another one or not. I really liked the phone. My main concern, and it is a big one, is that I might get another bum device from OnePlus. It took one month, literally, to get approval to send my last device back for refund. If I get another bad one, I don't know if I wanna deal with that, again. I am still waiting on the refund too by the way, but should have that this week.
The phones are both great, but I think you gotta consider the customer support too here. Supposedly OP is working on that aspect though, but I haven't seen it yet.

IMO after messing around alot with my freind's note 3 and owning a opo, if i had to compare i would say they are about equal,both have their advantages.
I still have my Note 3 with me as a development phone. As I still have KNOX 0x0 and am not binded to any bootloader lock, I just flash everything on my Note 3/install everything on my Note 3 first before my OPO.
In my opinion, the camera is WAY better on the OPO. The focus and the clarity of the lens is far superior than the dumbed down, slow focusing, Note 3 camera. Try this with your Note 3: Put your finger 10cm away from the camera and try focusing on just the finger with a bunch of paper in the background. This takes around 5-7 tap to focuses compared to OPO's 1-2 taps. I am using the same camera apk file to compare - Google Camera, however no difference when using TW camera and/or CM Camera.
The screen is the only thing you would miss your Note 3 for. The screen on the OPO looks a bit washed out compared to the dense blacks and the vibrant colors. OPO still has great viewing angles, but you're comparing a JDI with an AMOLED - two different technologies.
The OPO has eMMC v5.0 which means faster data speeds compared to the Note 3.
Sound, not really much of a difference. The fact that there's two speakers on the OPO vs. the only one speaker on the Note 3 shouldn't be a deciding factor as the speaker on the OPO isn't running on real stereo but dual mono.
Front facing camera bump up to 5MP is better for those selfie-lovers. Not my thing but if it's yours, then go ahead.
When holding the device, I feel like holding the Note 3 with a full aluminium bumper and an aluminium battery cover actually FEELS NICER than the OPO, as the OPO's thin profile more heightened design feels more delicate to the touch. The OPO definitely feels more premium than the Note 3, as the Note 3 feels like you can break/cause damage to any bit of the phone (screen movement in/out, home button alignment issue/unresponsive click, S Pen slot crack, etc) but with the OPO you have a more sleek profile with a more premium feel.

Any Samsung Galaxy Note users prefer the Opo?

Just curious if there are any sgn4 users that prefer the one plus one device.

Reasons being?
OPO is a better phone.
Transmitted via Bacon
It really depends on your needs and preferences. Before my opo I had a note 2 a great phone with a lot of features. But I got bored with the note 2 and it's stock features and touchwiz interface. And since flashing aosp ROMs wasn't the same experience as a nexus device. I got an opo.
I have a note 4 and my Opo I have to say I love my note 4 but my Opo still feels more fluid. I love the s pen but as soon as aosp development starts for the note 4 as well as there being a method att aosp is going on the note 4
S-pen handwriting, camera OIS, SD slot, removable battrry, QHD screen (without a hint of yellow), dual SIM make it a clear winner for me.
2-3 months ago OPO was a clear buy. Now, it's maybe 4th or 5th in my eyes.
Don't get me wrong - I still like my OPO. But it just feels a bit dated and generic. Consequence of the fast-paced tech cycle, I guess.

I have seen 4 note 4's and all of them had screen problems from yellowish tint to blue tint. All of them were replaced and after the 4th had the same problem he decided to get his money back and he is going to get a Nexus 6
I thought the screen problem on the Note 4 was well known.
By the way only one of them had any gap worth noting on the side and it was worse at the top right than the bottom right.

note 5 over s6 edged plus? need help

so i think the Edge 6 plus in gold just look phenomenal. it looks like the note 5 kind of comes in a goldish color.
how does it look? is the S pen worth it to get over the edge 6+? i know that's the only difference in phones and that it weights a little more. can u tell with the weight?
any other reasons i should pick the note 5 over the 6+?
thank u!!!!

This is something only you can answer because it's all personal preferences. I myself do not like curved screens so any edge variant is out of the question for me. As for the S pen it all depends if you will use it or not. I could live without it but it's there if I do need it. My main reason for purchasing the Note 5 was the screen size and camera.
I went and got the note 5. Coming from a note 3 for over 2 years, it was rooted, recovery and with roms. I was able to live without all that now, for a nice screen, camera and no sd card/removable battery. I like my note 5 but your wants and needs are different than mine. Best of luck and get the phone that you like
The Note 5 and Edge plus are the exact same phone minus the spen. I know a lot of people over the years said the pen is "nice to have" but have not even used it once. I personally use it to sign documents and take quick notes of things I don't want to forget. Apart from that I don't have much use for it myself. Only you know if you are ever going to use the pen or not. If it's not needed, I'd definitely stick with the Edge plus. Not only is it lighter, sleaker, and curved, but it's also got one less piece for you to worry about getting lost/broken/stolen/poke somebody's eye out/etc.

I was in the same boat. Two things turned me to the Note 5 over the S6 Edge+:
1) I actually use the s pen a lot while internet browsing because a lot of the sites I visit use mouse-over to navigate, also signing docs and occasional photo editing
2) The case I would probably be using will cover up the beautiful edge+ anyways
I hate the edge variants. Pointless just for looks imo. I heard the s7 going edge so my next phone will not be the s7.

I agree, if you wanted to buy the best android phone on the market now, than it's the note 5. We'll tell the note 6 comes out next year
You just have to figure out what meets your needs and the functionality that best fits you. I use my Note 5 for business because I coach basketball. I can take notes, draw up opponents plays, and record them without bringing multiple devices.

S8+ Size

My S7 edge is the perfect size with the best battery life I've had on any phone. Naturally I'm looking at the S8+ as a replacement, but looking at the size of the thing I'm more inclined to get the normal S8.
Only thing that is slightly worrying is the smaller battery. Which one to go for...

The phones are nearly exactly the same size with the s8+ being 6mm wider. I guess the question is are you really going to be able to tell what 6mm feels like in the hand. I doubt you will even notice, you will be too distracted by the gigantic screen lol

I'll definitely notice the extra 6mm. It's quite a lot if I'm finding the S7 edge just right.
I know what will happen though. I'll get sucked in by wanting the best model and go for the S8+ anyway. Lol
I think this new aspect ratio should be reclassified. 5.7 inch on a 18x9 is really like a 5.5 inch with extra width, not height. So for watching videos it will be like a smaller but wider screen. I guess the 6.2 inch will be more like a 5.7 inch with extra width. 5.7 in s8 is very different to 5.7 on say the note 7 or note 5.
Just my 2c

100% agree. I noticed this for the first time with tablets.
I've just seen the price of the S8 and S8+. I will be keeping my S7 Edge as there's no way I'm paying that for any phone.

There is very less probability that they will launch a flat model S8
S8+ would be roughly the same size as the Note 7, which was slightly bigger than the S7 Edge.

Thinking of get the U11 6gb therefore, hand my S8+ over my wife but...

Hi guys, currently I have S8+ which have me some how very happy. I love so much the big screen and how it looks. Performance is not bad but not the best, sometimes is laggy. I am thinking of changing my S8 plus for the UT11 6Gb but a few questions get me concern. Hope you can help me:
Is the U11 screen big enough? I mean of course is not as the S8+ but at least can you feel is a very good size? I have used the note 4 which love the size of the screen. Then I got the S6 which screen is too small and hate it because of it and now the S8+.
Secondly, I am a Samsung boy since forever but the last two years I want to try either HTC, One, or Google. So far HTC U11 seems my best option. What are the drawbacks of HTC in general?
Lastly, Is the battery good enough to last 1 completely day, for instance, from 10 am to 23 pm?. I know it depends on many factors, but imagine you are traveling and just use the camera and sometimes the gps.
Thanks in advanced
I have both phones. S8+ has the better screen though narrower. U11 is a tad shorter but wider and feels bulkier.
I returned the original u11 because believe it or not, the phone began lagging and I do have a lot of apps though no gaming or Facebook.
I am hoping the 6gb version corrects that.
Overall battery life is far better on S8+.

Can you show any screenshots of your best battery life on the Samsung S8+?
i typically don't hold on to screenshots or worry about battery life once I am comfortable with the phone and it has settled down once all apps are loaded and have been using for a few days. I'l try to remember to begin a new cycle tonight when I go to re-charge. I don't have a clean count because I did pop it on Fast charger for a few minutes twice today and I typically only charge to 85%.
I like the wider screen of the U11. I don't have an S8+ but had only tried in Samsung stores. This thing is really fast. Battery lasts me from 6PM to about 10AM next day with about 10% left. That's with all day data on.

I went from the s8+ to the oneplus 5 to the U11. The HTC feels very dated. The UI and launcher feel like 2014. The screen is more than adequate. The light sensor is a bit off I find that the screen is often the too dark or too light. When it comes to lag on this phone I get 0. The one thing that does bug me sometimes is missing haptic feedbacks on the keyboard. The best thing about this phone is definitely the camera. I actually use the Google camera though as the camera app on this phone is really meh. To be honest I can't say for sure drop the s8 for this phone as I'm only keeping it until the note 8 comes out. But is it at least as good as the s8+? It sure is. As far as smoothness goes it is much better. Hope this helps.

I went from the s8+ to the oneplus 5 to the U11. The HTC feels very dated. The UI and launcher feel like 2014. The screen is more than adequate.

Did you mean there is no haptic feedback on the keyboard?

Yes of course there is. But when you type quick it skips sometimes. Like after every 30 taps or so you get one blank one. That still registers though.

I find flesky is the best keyboard on the market if you don't use predictions(can be disabled)
swiftkey if you use them
but touchpal is one of the worst
