[Mr. Martinez]

Copping a new one asap.

iPhone's dead.

Still undecided between S7 and Pixel.

Edging towards the S7. 

Who's played with both?

Pixel is easily the best Android experience. and that's coming from a Note 7. S7 only beats it in looks.

 

[The King]

Fuck a Samsung

If you want Android, you get Pixel

Nothing else compares.

[Mr. Martinez]

Really? Every smart phone I've had has been an iPhone

Going to have to try out the Pixel myself in person. After a bit of research, it just seemed like the Samsung was stronger in every department and cheaper. 

And I really wanted the Pixel on first impressions, so then I decided to wait till the S8 comes out early next year.

Hmm

 

[The King]

An iPhone is the best overall phone however the camera on the pixel and the assistant are better.

Samsung cram tech and headline features in their phones but that doesn't equal great performance or user experience.

Stock android is the only way to go

[Restrictive]

Copped an iPhone don't regret, not perfect.

Wanted to wait untl Next year but needed/wanted a new phone now, next years meant to be the biggest upgrade iphone had seen due to 10 year anniversary.

Never really liked Samsungs, but its cheaper now and it does have more features.

However Pixel would be my choice If I was sticking with Android but at the same price as iPhone for example I couldn't justify it. arguably you get more for your money with an iPhone and a Samsung.

[meridian]

Like the look and feel of the iPhone but would never go back to iOS.  From the time I couldn't save Word docs and PDFs that done it for me really. 

Would love a Pixel as like someone said stock android is the way but sort of got use to Touchwiz now,  just a shame it doesn't make the most of Android features.

was one sick deal I found on the weekend, worked out to about £750 over 24 months for a Pixel 32GB, unlimited minutes, texts, 6GB 4G internet

would have been bang on that if I was sticking in 1 country

same deal was going for iPhone 7

on Vodafone through mobiles.co.uk 

[Monday Bandele]

love the idea of the pixel but choosing it over an s7 is just silly. especially as you can just flash a stock android rom onto it

• no water proofing
• no QHD display
• no wireless charging
• no expandable storage

these are basics for android these days. can't be charging me iphone prices for that. i

 

[Restrictive]

theres no stock android roms for the S7...but other points are valid.

Pixel XL is QHD also

[Mr. Martinez]

When is the s8 coming out?

my iPhone 6 literally dies halfway through the way. So fucking annoying. Don't know if I can wait.

Will be around March for sale and announced in Feb at MWC

[Mr. Martinez]

Peak 

might try replace the battery myself on this piece of shit

Or does anyone know how much bossman would charge if I took the battery with me?

[That Guy Son]

my iPhones 6s is pissing me off. Battery will die randomly when it still have like 20% left.

Basically I cant trust my battery percentage anymore. I gotta treat 30% like its 10%

There is a fault with some 6S batteries, take it to apple shop and they will give you a new phone

Thanks for the heads up. Googled it and it seems like a common problem.

[Mr. Martinez]

I re-calibrated the battery on my iPhone 6 and was actually surprised with the results

Lasting all day again

How?

[meridian]

Gotta do some shit like drain your battery till it switches off then charge it for 6 hours and then reset it... Something like that remember doing it for mine years ago
