True. Although Att comes close - I got LTE in Fort Valley/Macon for the first time in years 2 weeks ago.

That's a shocker. But go too far off 75 and I'm sure it'll go out.

Haha, in no way is this conclusive but this is hilarious. Slap an Apple logo on it so it must be good.

I'm assuming that's some Chinese replica? I don't recall there being a way to put Android on an iPhone.

OnePlus auctioning off it's own invites for charity https://blog.oneplus.net/2015/08/invites-for-a-cause/

How nice of One Plus to give money back to its customers

Nice Verge article here about Motorola making Google proud.

A Mexican reader left a very enlightening comment regarding the Mexico phone market. I cleaned it up a bit:

Motorola has the balls no one else has. In Mexico, Motorola parted ways from TELCEL, a Carlos Slim company, which didn't sell last year's line. Bold move considering TELCEL is almost a monopoly.

Now, Motorola goes and sells their new phones unlocked and cheaper than TELCEL, and makes the Moto G available on Motorola.com the same day of the reveal. In a country where you have to wait almost 6 months for new phones to come, Motorola is god send. Also, I see a lot of Moto G's in the wild, and people recommend it family and friends.

So, Motorola has the balls -- a slogan full of win. They spit in the face of Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim! That's badass. Forget all other phonemakers.

why not just sell the phone then give the profit to charity instead of selling a place in line, seems shady.

Lol okay, that's great

Yeah, that's pretty shitty. Auctioning off the chance to give them money is the greediest thing I've ever seen.

 

[DrFunk]

is it basically a oneplus?

I'd say they're totally brothers from another mother

[BoboBrazil]

I mean it's decent of them in theory. They figure that people will pay for invites anyway so they are doing it for charity and putting them up instead of other people auctioning them off. When you look deeper though you realize that they should be giving profit from the phones to charity and not auctioning off invites before they release them to the general public to appear generous.

This reminds me of those restaurants and stores that guilt you into donations at the register for charities and then they use them as a tax writeoff.

So ideas on what/when to expect the Xperia Z5?

 

[Fbh]

Any Galaxy S6 users here?

I was just wondering if it's normal for the device to get kinda warm. My previous phone (a Moto G) would only get warm when playing games for more than 10 min but the S6 seems to get warm by just browsing and texting. I downloaded CPUZ and under normal use (a few mins of browsing) it shows a CPU temperature of around 50C° (around 93-122 F°). Is that normal?

Thx

 

[Sch1sm]

On the latest M preview, N5. This is getting annoying, since Chrome now keeps bombarding me with a "needs to update prompt." I guess I'll try Beta or Dev version, see if they fix it.


Latest Beta version works just fine. Interesting.

I've only experienced this when I'm playing Summoners War, which overheats any and every phone I've played it in (I just played for about an hour while charging simultaneously and the cpu temp reads 50C). It's the only time I've gotten the cool-down warning too. Otherwise, it's been fine so far. I haven't really used it to watch any movies yet (that's what my tablet is for) but for Web browsing or reading news. If you're sporting a case I imagine it heats up more quickly and takes longer to cool down.

 

[Bboy AJ]

One Plus is awful.

Someone give me details on the higher spec'd Zen Pad. I got my Nexus 9 in today. I'm about to flash M2 on it. But remember, I hate this tablet and the sooner I can get rid of it, the better.

 

[Manmademan]

I seriously hope you are joking.

because....?

That's very good for this area.

This was from november, before spark launched here.

As usual, T-Mobile’s strength was in speed, where it was the only network operator to score over 90 points in the speed index rankings. This was thanks to having a median download speed of 21.6Mbps and a median upload speed of 17.9Mbps. And, while it’s still revamping its network, it’s also no surprise to see Sprint in last place:

1 – T-Mobile (93.0) – average download speed: 21.6Mpbs
2 – Verizon (88.0) - average download speed: 15.2Mbps
3 – AT &T (87.4) – average download speed: 10.2Mbps
4 – Sprint (79.8) – average download speed: 7.4Mbps

http://www.tmonews.com/2014/11/rootmetrics-network-report-verizon-and-t-mobile-share-1st-place-in-philadelphia/

Going from a non-spark phone to a spark-enabled phone, my download speeds more than doubled, and are much better than verizon or AT&T sustain here. Sprint also has better coverage than Tmobile does in the greater philadelphia area. I can't imagine why anyone would have issue getting 17/12 on a phone.

The prices those invites are at....just wow

SO this is what they meant about another way of getting invites? Good for the charities I guess

Some S820 leaks. Looks pretty beast. Info seems to say no phone will have it until Q1 2016 but we shall see. Not sure how dated this info is.

If I ship back my Shield Tablet to the US and the plane blows up because of it, will I be considered a terrorist? honest question.

btw if it does actually happen I hope it is above Florida.

I had a Nexus 9 when it came out. Check my post history. But I returned it because it was so bad. So it says something about my Nexus 10 that I rebought this garbage.

Come on, Zenpad.

AJ sold it way back when.

He's also usually right about everything, but because he calculates way ahead, you won't realize he is until he's wrong about something else.
