It's arguably still the best 300 or lower phone imo*. But the OP2 will be out sooner or later.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
MKB's latest video is his top 5 cheaper phones, and the OPO was still #1!

I'm now subscribed to Verizon edge and can now upgrade every April. Only question is, Note 5 or Nexus 5(2015) next year. Samsung will have the better screen and specs, but Nexus will have the software advantage. This is going to be hard, glad I have 10 months.
Just got a S6 Edge yesterday after being an iPhone user since the 3G. I love it so far but does anyone have suggestions for earbuds that control volume and pause and play music with a decent mic for calling? I find the Samsung ones that come with it super uncomfortable. I listen to podcasts 90% so sound quality isn't super important, just as long as spoken word sounds decent and I have volume and playback control.
I can't believe how good the iPhone 6 camera is compared to the Note 4's camera in terms of point and shoot.
There is still motion blur/lens blur when you move while you are taking a picture with the note 4, but with the iphone 6's camera it is significantly reduced.
Did they fix this with the s6?

I've not done a side by side, but I definitely felt the s6's point and shoot performance was significantly better than the Note 4 (and indeed any other Android handset I've ever tried).
Presumably you mean the iPhone 6+ here with it's OIS?
The S6 will still blur worse than the iPhone in lower light situations, but with good light, the shutter speed is as fast I'd say.
Damn, that Open Device Program doing work.
Thanks guys...now if I can actually find one to buy.

Really great what Sony are doing just a shame they think that not including radio files is a good idea. means making your phone a tablet :/

Is anyone else randomly not getting Youtube comments on the app? Even on my own videos, I'll get the Comments are disabled and not display comments.

you can openly buy one straight from them now for cheaper than they used to be.
It's missing LTE bands that both T-Mobile and AT&T use. You'll get LTE on both carriers but there will be places where you should get it but don't.

Software = Built by teenagers in their basements
Hardware = built by oneplus who have had horrible issues regarding camera, touchscreen, capacitive keys, screen issues.
The specs themselves are pretty good

Seriously? shit must have burnt through that stock fast.

Hardware is also built by teenagers in Chinese factories.
iPhone only. Just got a design overhaul actually.
The mobile site isnt bad though.
I love Sony and the Xperia line more than any other Android phone. I just wish they would get their shit together so they can have their phone on multiple carriers in the US and not the weird v version on Verizon.

So it isn't only me? I felt like so many videos had no comments, and it was messing with me.

I only extended that to the Z4v
didn't some folks in here say they'd buy the next flagship that has usb type-c?
You forgot the other qualifier.
Must not have the Snapdragon 810.

What does USB type c do?
Sell you something you don't need.

I'd be pretty surprised if all phones coming late in the year didn't have type C.
Anyway it will be hard to buy something without it that's for sure. Hope the LG nexus has that and a fingerprint scanner and I'm GOOD.
it's much better designed (reversible), faster, more power. It's a good standard jump.

With the way Google are pushing the fingerprint stuff i'm sure it'll have it but type C is 100% at this rate.

Now we're getting somewhere. Include an sd card slot and we have worthy competitor to the next Nexus, S6, and MX2015.

I honestly think the phones coming up will be pretty good. Moto X 2015 is shaping up mostly. OP2 is seemingly going all out. Possibly two nexus phones to choose from. You know the Note 5 will be good for those that want that.
I'm in a constant state of denial when it comes to a good nexus phone. If it has those things, it's huge as fuck, and has a good battery in it I will finally be happy. Camera I'll take a decent one even. I'm willing to concede that! Will be great if it was all good though.

I'd say 100% probability that the OP2 won't be CDMA right?
Almost certain to be sim only. I don't I'll get an invite, so I'll have plenty of times to hear reviews first. PEACE.
Have you tried the LG HBS headphones.
I have the HBS-750's and I haven't haven't had any issues with them.
That's if you're looking at Bluetooth headphones.

Nexus always have something lacking and tbh if it's the camera that lacks over everything else i'd be fin with it.
I've become accustom to the size of the N6 now so I think the bigger Nexus if they are indeed doing 2 will be the one for me this year as long as it has the scanner of course.
Blegh I hate waiting I wanna see them now!

if we really are getting 5.2 inches and 5.7 inches I think it's near perfect in terms of options. 5/5.7 would have been better but meh. As long as they both share the same features.
Sucks we haven't had a good leak in a minute.

Enjoy that battery life bruh.
You'll be fine. I've had mine for two weeks now and it's great. THe only thing that sucks is the mic for voice commands. It doesn't pick up "ok Google" and the Moto voice commands well.
