It doesn't matter. People will buy it or not buy it anyway. You guys can complain but it'll sell the same regardless.

Well, this note 5 strategy looks like old sony one by releasing 2 flaships every year, releasing too often. Not a full year since note 4 and same specs as S6 makes it 'kinda' old at launch even if some specs are better than N4 . Note series used to have better specs than S series, the latest soc (SD600-SD800 , SD801-SD805), and not this time. Plus the loss of SD and removable battery make it even worse. So i will probably wait for Note 6 (unless some awesome phone with multitasking and awesome camera is released before).
My Note 4 works flawlessly and 5.1 update seems to improve. Too bad we won't see less bloated TW on it. Well maybe in a year with Android M

I will be really tempted by next Nexus 5 but can't go to small screens now :/ Let's see what Huawei's Nexus has to offer though...

I think Ghostery detected 13 or 14 trackers on that site. The most I've seen so far.

But it's clearly phones and mobile browsers that are at fault for shitty performance.

Nilay is such a boner these days. I know he has always been one but I feel like he has been the SSJ version of himself the past few months.

Google's New 'OnHub' Smart Wireless Router Is On Sale In The Google Store For $199

The 2015 Moto G i got for my mom is pretty damn nice for the price. Way better than the Moto E for the small price difference.

I know it's probably a stupid thought, but the thought of a router with full Google software on it doesn't sit well with me at all.

At least it looks nicer than Apple's AirPort Extreme.

 

[Symphonia]

Is anyone else having issues with Twitter constantly crashing and stopping on their Android devices, or is it just me?

How does the back feel? Is it grippier than the slippery back of the Moto X?

Yes, but not by much.

Preordered. I'm a sucker for new things x(

Same boat. My current router does ac and has 4 gigabit ports... But this is so pretty.

 

[Jazzy Network]

200 for a router? Eh? I can probably get a comparable one for half that from like Asus or something.

 

[Groof]

M3 is pretty slick. Animations are on point and all my apps are working again. Bonus is that snaps aren't upside down anymore.

 

[Hasney]

There's a speaker in that router too though, so if you were looking for a Bluetooth one for a room, its a consideration.

Should have a microphone array for Google Now

Before I saw that it was, I thought it was their own Amazon Echo.

I don't want to hype marshmallow up because I never used the lollipop previews and people said they were great by the end... But 10% battery in 5 hours on a Nexus 6 needs to carry over

so what you're saying is that Android's battery woes were...*gasp*...software related THIS WHOLE TIME?!

Maybe your phone is going to shut itself off at 60% (i.e. battery is in correctly calibrated from update). It certainly happens when changing rom.

Looks nice. But only one Ethernet port is weak.

I flashed M3 on my Nexus 6 and 9. Let's see how the 6 holds up. The 9 is fine but no big changes. It runs a little better. Less refreshing.

I went from 3.5 hours screen on time with Lollipop to 5+ hours on Marshmallow.

 

[brotkasten]

With Android Marshmellow, my Nexus 5 (2013) turned into a Nexus 5 (2015).

 

[Bboy AJ]

Guys, no joke, this Nexus 9 runs SO MUCH better on M3. It's actually usable. Things don't constantly refresh. I can run a browser and hangouts at the same time. Wow.

Remember every time everyone said that the moment they flashed an update on their shitbucket N9, and then come crawling back admitting they were wrong the next day?

Was doing the same old closing for me. I couldn't even have one browser tab opened and it refreshed it when I went back.

"Why not indeed!"

I will say this is on chrome and it seems to be a massive issue for the tablet.

Saying that it dosw still close apps in the background on me but I guess I gotta live with that.

 

[jwk94]

Yes, but not by much.

Just about anything would be an improvement. Thanks for the help!

 

[Bboy AJ]

The Nexus 9 is absolute garbage, no doubt. I'm not cancelling my Zenpad order. I know the N9 will turn to crap in a few hours.

Can't wait to hear you complain about the Zenpad once you get it.

How much RAM has the N9 got? The 8 tabs open on my N6 Chrome aren't refreshing,

That wireless smart hub will probably get fewer updates than an Android phone

If you're an iPhone advocate, why are you trolling the Android thread?

Oh wait, that might answer my question.

What's the last Windows Phone flagship? Did it come out right after the HTC One (M7)?

It's a skip year for me, will wait for the iOS 10 and iPhone 7.

There was a version of the HTC One M8 that ran Windows Phone. I don't know much about the platform, but that was definitely after M7.
