Did Google mention what retailers would be supporting their pay system? Is Google sharing customer information with the retailers? I know that is a huge reason why a lot of places don't want to adopt Apple Pay. Google should just give all that customer data to retailers and take over the game.

I dropped my trusty Nex4, and it's ded :/ Feels weird to no longer have Facebook, messaging, internet etc on your fingertips, so I probably need a new phone.
Since I kinda want to wait to see what the new Nex5 is about, but on the other hand this is making it harder to wait for Oct/Nov, I'm not sure what to do now. Buy a used Nex4 again? Get something recent and forget about the new Nex5 for now? Manage without a phone for a few months and go all-in after that?
What would GAF recommend?

Either look at the Moto X next month, or wait for the new Nexus(s) phones.

Get a Moto G; it's inexpensive and more than capable for a burner/stop-gap device.

My dog was murdered by a 3.5mm audio port and I will not rest until the standard is dead
One Minus Two isn't a bad phone. It's just not a particularly great phone. It's a solid device. But couple a budget phone with an annoying company that treats its customers like garbage and constantly lies, and there you have why we hate them.
Yo LOL daaaamn the struggle is real

This thread would be so much more pleasant if y'all just took a break from the recycled hardware rumors and recriminations once in a while. Android is software, right!? Y'all actually use these devices to do stuff, I presume? What do you think of the new software features Samsung demoed** for the Note 5? What cool apps or games have you tried recently?
**asking about the features not giving an opportunity to complain about Touchwiz
How about y'all try not talking about hardware for a week... or just the next 24 hours?
S-Pen with the screen off was amazing.

You expect it to stay alive. Usually people replace their phones after 2-3 years anyway and sometimes every year. If a battery in a phone can't last that long, then it's just a shitty phone with a garbage battery, IMO.

even when multitasking finally gets copied by Apple, iOS still won't be as good as Samsung's TouchWiz based Android variant on a tablet.
Faceless, this is the worst thing you've ever posted.

You seem like the type of person who would get a subscription to Milk and download from the Samsung App Store.

For how much profit
BoboBrazil

Made $150 profit. Probably could've made more if I held out. Next up I wait for reviews of the Moto X.

Still nice, really shocked at how much people are willing to pay.
You should've said you had it. I would've bought it...
and flipped it for double, triple, quadruple it's price in the name of charity. I'd donate the proceeds to charity.

Smartphones I want right now:
OP2 for reasons
GS6 because of the IR blaster, camera, and possible Android M update to fix the battery fuckery.
LG Nexus premium version (please?) with microsd support and IR blaster

good man.
Not being micro USB is a big thing. Both sides look identical and none of the connectors really fit so they all go in with a disconcerting crunch.
Not having that flimsy thing on my phone is in itself a big plus. Not that I didn't wish it was fast at data transfer and charging as well.

saves a few seconds half the time. quick charge saves hours every time.
Saves a lot more when the connector doesn't break
Controlling televisions. If I pay $600+ for a smartphone that is not an iphone then it better have an IR blaster.

I don't know a single person dumb enough to try to put a micro-USB in the jack and think "hey it's not going in. Lemme jam it with all of my might until it goes in."
Try harder.

Oh. Damn lol, I'd never waste battery life to control my TV. Not now, at least.
Remember I'm on the four year flagship plan. My i5 holds up after three years and it should make it to four. IR blaster gives me another reason to use the phone. I need at least 18 hours a day of usage out of a $500 plus smartphone to justify the cost. IR blaster gives me another x amount of hours to fit my needs.
The idea of working out tracking calories and controlling the tv is great. You're at someone's house and bust out your phone to control the tv set. With that said, given the s6 battery life I feel your pain.

Perhaps I'm reading this wrong, but are you saying you're fine spending however much money on an iPhone with no IR blaster, but spending the same amount on another phone with no IR blaster is a no go? Why not hold the iPhone to the same standard?

GS6, LG G4, G Flex 2, Note 4, LG G3.
it would be great if we weren't stuck with IR, but that's generally how shit works.
