6P is that much wider angle than iPhone? Highly doubt that.

 

[EmiPrime]

Bullshit it does. Elaborate.

No message search and no encryption are the standout flaws and it's consistent across all platforms. Let's not pretend Hangouts is great on iOS and crap on Android, neither are very good.

Still no native desktop app either that syncs SMS and Hangouts. The Chrome app is rubbish.

Spoiler

also not enough stickers, LINE has spoiled me.

 

[Wreav]

Have gmail archive conversations, easily searchable from there.

Don't give a shit about encryption, I'm not the secretary of state or anything.

Ars confirming Apple's 2-3% discrepancy claims. Sorry, brehs, no #chipgate this year.

Still the year of shitty SoCs. Come on 2016, can't wait to see the 820 ultrasonic biometrics vs the A10's in-glass fingerprint reading.

but people were swearing they could tell the difference on sight!

My preorder is being justified with every piece of news that gets out.

Just noticed that the Nexus 6p is no longer available for Canada on the Google site. When did that happen?

Hey Androids!
About to join Team Green.
Bought OnePlus 2 during today's open sale.
Going from iPhone 5 to OP2. o/
Never had an Android phone, really looking forward to the switch.
I already made a list of all the apps I use and all are present on Android except a few so I need your recommendations:

- alternative to Camera+
This iOS photo app is sublime and I use it heavily. Anything similar on Google Play?

- a good RDP app to connect to my headless Windows Server 2012

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I don't think anyone will dick with synaptics until a Nexus has it, honestly.

Better ask Santa for an iPhone, then.

I could see Samsung doing it and trying to include their own silly use of it, and then when google does it right they'll be ready for it. But yeah hard to say. Took some of them long enough to include fingerprint sensors.

The new stock camera update looks to be quite good. I'd wait for that to come out before spending some dough on another app. You might like it.

WTF!? My Moto X "died". I was using it and little battery was left. When it completely depleted itself, I went to charge it. I waited for it to have charge to turn it on again. Boot sequence initiated and then, no home screen at all. I was greeted with a black screen... and the phone is working! I took a black screen shot and when I press the power button, the "want to turn off the phone" message appears, but that's it. HELP.

Galaxy S7 rumours:

I Ice Universe, a popular leakster on Weibo, is responsible for leaking this very important and exciting news. And for those who are wondering whether ClearForce will just be an imitation of Apple’s 3D Touch, then you’re wrong as the Samsung ClearForce tech will allow the users to perform more compelling gestures for variable speed scrolling, variable gaming control, screen wake up and unlock, etc.

cool. That + 820 + bigger battery + continuing to improve camera + continue to reduce touchwiz footprint = probably top android phone of 2016 not including nexii.

LAWD YES. This is going to make my concert photography look good. My Nexus 6 is already decent.

Well it does run an 810 lol

 

[Jazzy Network]

Exynos 7420 stays winning.

 

[Hasney]

Well sure. But damn if it isn't confidence inspiring that Samsung is going back to using Snapdragon next year. At least it's not as shit as an 810.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Well it does run an 810 lol

It's performing worse than other phones with the same chip like the OnePlus 2 though.

But the real smartphone question is...Pepsi or Coke?

Everything else is none important.

 

[giga]

Geekbench scores weren't too far off from the exynos, so it's probably the GPU or I/O where it falters.

I'm hoping that's the case. I'm probably going to cancel my iphone 6s+ order and go strictly with the 6P until Samsung comes out with the next batch of 820 phones.

 

[Afro Samurai]

Hopefully not as hot as the Nexus 4. That was painfully hot.

Guys, this is serious. I can't find an answer anywhere.... I can't even reset the phone! Everytime I try to do a factory reset it just won't work. Help, please.

Exactly. It wouldn't surprise me if HTC and OnePlus force max frequencies when they detect a benchmark is being run.

If not, great! The stock clock speed on the 810 is absurdly high for four A57s on 20nm.

So I can get a oneplus one for $200 64gb.is that a good deal to get? I won't have the money to get the 6p for a few months to half a year. And right now I'm dealing with htc m7.

I say no

get the one plus mini when it comes out. Assuming anyone can buy it.

That's a steal for what you get at that price. Do it.

 

[Afro Samurai]

What would be the resale value if there's a crack on the corner of the screen(black area). It doesn't affect the viewing experience at all. Is it still a good deal at $200?
