US correct? I would just wait till tuesday if I was gonna buy a 400-500$ cell phone, Redmi is gonna go even harder than Xiaomi with the Pocophone last year with a flagship level device at an uber low price. I'm talking glass and metal build, OLED screen with UD-FPR, 6GB ram, SD855, Full screen display with a motorized selfie cam, stereo speakers, 3.5mm jack and micro SD support, and the rumored price is not gonna be higher than 500 for the base models. Even could be lower than 400. But I dunno if it can support US carriers.
Europa and I want something a bit smaller (even though 3a isn't that small) hence me ignoring many of the chinese midrange options. You're talking about the K20 though right? Looks nice.US correct?

Yep. With a 6.3in screen with no bezels and what not, its roughly gonna be the size of a Pixel 3a, so maaaaybe its gonna be small enough. But yeah, that's definitely an issue these days, one of my friends wants a small 130€ phone with nothing larger than a 5.5in screen, and I couldn't find anything worth it at that price with that screen size.Europa and I want something a bit smaller (even though 3a isn't that small) hence me ignoring many of the chinese midrange options.

The only reason (aside from the camera) I'm considering the 3a is it's cheaper so if I wanted a "stop gap" phone for like a year+ (since I usually use the same for several) it would make a sooner upgrade not make me feel like I wasted as much money lol. It's like a 200eur + difference between the s10e and the 3a, but still leaning towards the s10e.There's no way I'd buy a 3a at full price. It's way worse than the S10e in every way apart from camera (slightly) and software updates (but I'd rather have Samsung's software at this point).

Yeah I'll see. I'd be fine with any of them I'm sure. Want to delay a bit to see if post launch pixel jank reports appear lol.Id get the Pixel because I really value having pure Android and quick updates (I even use the beta ones). And the camera is great. If you area already buying a phone thinking about an upgrade in a year or so, better get the cheaper one, which in this case doesnt even mean that it is a 'worst' phone, it has pros and cons.
Im very happy with my S10e, it's the first phone I've had in a while that I feel like I won't need to upgrade in a year (or at least WANT to upgrade).The only reason (aside from the camera) I'm considering the 3a is it's cheaper so if I wanted a "stop gap" phone for like a year+ (since I usually use the same for several) it would make a sooner upgrade not make me feel like I wasted as much money lol.

Yeah it seems great. I like the form factor and screen ratio. I was hesitant because it's harder to get a snapdragon version here but I found one.Im very happy with my S10e, it's the first phone I've had in a while that I feel like I won't need to upgrade in a year (or at least WANT to upgrade).
Great camera (really like the fisheye lens mode), perfect size (small, but still has a large screen), Samsung Pay, surprisingly solid battery life, great performance, and large 128gb internal storage (AND SD Card slot).
And the Samsung Buds have perfect audio sync for videos in the S10, which is really great.
I can't really think of any upgrades in the next year or two that would tempt me to upgrade. 90hz+ screens are nice, but they seem to hurt battery life. Foldables are cool, but too expensive and "gen 1". Performance improvements I couldn't really care less about (my several year old Moto Z Play still runs fine to me).
About the only thing that could get me to upgrade would be if iOS finally gets split screen app multitasking, and brings back a fingerprint sensor again, I'm not the biggest fan of Face ID.

Pie is more sluggish than 8.0 on my S8, sooooLooks like the LG V40 finally gets Android Pie in the US.
I tried it out and the first impression...seems to be more sluggish? I guess i just need more time with it to judge
doublecheck the notification settings in the Galaxy Wearable app?Okay ResetEra, I need help.
My Gear S3 was working and receiving updates flawlessly until I updated it 2 days (Tizen 4.0.02 / R765TUVU3DRL6) And now I don't have receive any notifications. Only thing it seems to be receiving is the default SMS notifications which I was previously using Textra as my default SMS app on my phone and I would get notifications of it on my Gear S3. I'm not getting WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram notifications or anything else for that matter.
I have attempted a factory reset and somehow it's still the same software version, please advise how to to fix it.
Thank you.
I triple checked the settings and nothing.never settle
doublecheck the notification settings in the Galaxy Wearable app?
factory reset clears user data, it won't clear an OS update.
what about clearing data or uninstalling/reinstalling the wearable app?I triple checked the settings and nothing.
Thank you for reaching out for help.
I've tried both with no luck.what about clearing data or uninstalling/reinstalling the wearable app?
One plus outside of the pro model sure, but it keeps climbing in the price tiers. Asus and Redmi though, holy fuck at their value for money challenge. Asus Zenfone 6 especially is even better than the Redmi K20, that thing is a monster for 500€.Asus one plus and redmi are putting all the over 1k phones on notice.
Just under a week of using the OnePlus 7 Pro now and I have to admit, it has absolutely ruined other phones for me. Every time I look at my XS Max, or watch a YouTube review of a phone with a notch or a cut-out camera in the display, or even something with moderate bezels, it just looks like it's outdated to me. As someone who hardly ever uses the "selfie-cam" and certainly doesn't ever take selfies, it was ridiculous to me that we were stuck on making sacrifices for them for so long. Add to that the overall minimalist bezels all around and a chin that rivals the iPhone's, it just looks like the future in every way.
I'll gladly take the few shortcomings of the OnePlus (for me mostly the lack of wireless charging tbh) and forgive them just for the display. It's just so stunningly smooth and gorgeous. Still not a fan of curved displays, but it does help in making the screen seem massive, I won't lie.
Either way, just ranting, but I hope this time next year we'll see fewer and fewer bezels, notches, or cut-outs on the flagship models, because anything coming out after this will look immediately last-gen if it doesn't follow suit.

My contract is up for renewal today - currently on a OP 5T, which I'm happy with but the camera does leave some to be desired.
Really not sure whether to upgrade now (7 Pro or S10, I guess) ir wait until later this year for the next Pixel.
Is there any other options worth considering in the UK? Conscious that 5G is launching soon too, although not on my provider yet (Three).
I love that I can do this on OneUI(and maybe before that I don't know I didn't have a Sammy phone before)So when is google gonna move the clock back over to the correct side of the status bar since we are quickly moving away from notches and shit?
Let us know how it is.I've just upgraded to the Xperia 1. Think its releasing this week, Im on EE. My XZ Premium has hit the end of its life
Man, if it wasn't for lack of Verizon LTE band support and how much I've been loving Samsung Pay I'd actually be tempted to return my S10e to get that Asus instead. Killer phone for the price, there!
Am I wrong in seeing that cut-out is ridiculously huge compared the others?
I edited this out right after, looking at the actual render of the protector, it seems like a regular size. I think the screenshot of the OS just makes it seem bigger and it's probably more regular sized like Samsung.
That's kind of a neat idea. I haven't used a Note since my old Note II, but isn't the stylus narrower than the 3.5mm jack would be?If the Note 10 ditches the headphone jack, they should make the stylus have a jack and use it as some sort of Bluetooth receiver. That'd be kinda cool
After spending 2 days heavily using the Pixel 3A, I can agree with reviewers that's an excellent phone for the price and the camera's photos are outstanding.
With that said, my experience of using the stock pixel software confirms my belief that it's over rated in certain aspects. Going back to my S10 with full gesture navigation + good lock w/ one handed operation+ has felt so much better for navigating the phone, especially with one hand.
At least Q beta brings side swipes for back key.
