8+ going to S10e.

These 2 year cycle upgrades (though 1 and a half years in this case) seems to be doing well for me.

Nice OT!

Ceramic White looks amazing, shame it's limited to S10+...

This video sold me to switch from my iPhone 6S.

Oneplus 3T here. Had no reason to upgrade until now, the phone still works great.

But the S10.. goddamn. Have never wanted a phone this much. I have never watched so many videos of a phone before, it's ridiculous.

Haven't ordered yet since my current contract expires in December :/

Image stabilisation. Only in 1080 naturally as its using a larger frame to keep it that stable.

I'm going to hold off until the Note 9 gets a price drop. My Note 8 is still going strong and the Note 10 will move than likely be out of my price range.

I want the larger battery that the 9 has along with T-mobile's 600mhz band.

See that's the thing, it's my concern going down from the S8+, but the S10e still has a bigger battery than the S8 and it has a lower res screen (which I'm 99% sure I won't notice) and the S8 isn't that much worse than the S8+ which is a beast.

Do you think that this is the end of the notch trend? I never liked the implementation and to me the single pinhole (not the S10+ dual) looks miles better.

I might be getting the S10e.

So i thought the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor is supposed to be better then the huawei's mate 20 pros one. Guy in the vid was rather dissapointed with it.

For me, fingerprint unlock was one of the best "recent" features in smartphones besides dash/quick charging so i would hate if the display fingerprint unlock, which seems to get adopted by everyone, is a step back to the normal fingerprint sensor everybody uses atm (speed, detection).

Nahm he's only talking about a wet finger situation, which the current fingerprint sensors also struggle massively with.

Should I upgrade from my Galaxy S8 Plus? I'd like a smaller phone but I'm not sure the S10e is worth it.

I'm doing it, but honestly, other than the cracks all around the edges because I'm a clumsy piece of shit I have absolutely no reason to upgrade lol. Still going strong with absolutely no dip in performance, which is actually encouraging me more to get the S10E because I feel like I can trust the hardware and software.

Oh also my USB-C slot is broken too (my fault) so I can only charge wirelessly, but it kinda showed me just how little I actually need to use the USB-C connection outside of charging which I can't do in this case obviously.

Ah ok, didn't catch the wet part. Edit: just rewatched it, he still says it's slower than expected.Right before he says the "wet" part.

So is it looking like the Snapdragon or the Exynos CPU/GPU has the edge this year?

No Blue version of the Clear View cover this year :(

I've had the Clear View cover for my S8+ and S9+, but am considering the LED View cover this year.
Has anyone had experience with the both of them?
Does the LED View cover give you the same kind of controls/notification info that the Clear View cover gives you?

I've been wanting to get back into the Galaxy world but I only have had my iPhone for a year. Sigh. S10 looks nice.

Damn, amazing, it's like you don't need a dolly anymore.

To be honest, in all my galaxy phones (S2, S6, S8) the OIS started crapping out after a year, but at least I'm going to have fun the first year.

Was also surprised at EverythingApplePro going er yeah, S10(e) is way better than XS(r).

Anyone see the prism white in person? Does it look glossy white or is it really that multi color look.

Ordered my Spigen case, should arrive today.
What one?

I need to order one today and have had one of their cases on the last 2 phones.
My current s8 plus one is fine bar the plastic outer bit cracking and coming off.


I love Spigen, and it saved my S7 edge a lot of times. But I'm going Ringke this time. Still not sure fusion or fusion x. I want a case with a clear back.

What version?

Can't upgrade due to contract shenanigans, but I wish I could. The S9 will last me a while, though, so hopefully next time I upgrade the camera will be under the screen. I'll be sure to get my next phone unlocked.

I used neo hybrid from Spigen for my S7 Edge. But this time I'm going to use Fusion or Fusion X from Ringke.

I've reached a point in my life with my phone where I don't need to have the latest and greatest, I just want something that works. I'm even considering sticking on 8.0 because my phone is setup exactly how I want it and 9.0 makes some changes that prevent me from setting it up how I want (mainly in regards to overlay themes which are blocked on 9.0).

Gat damn.

I'm waiting for the Note 10, but the phone does look incredible, as do the Galaxy Buds, which I'll probably pick up. Added bass, better battery, and non stupid looking design and fit. Win.
