Reboots at least 3-4 times a week if not more. Never again. my work google pixel how ever has been flawless. I am thinking Samsung is the shittest phones out there. no issues with my S3, note 3 or note 4. dealt with plenty of issues with the 6 iphones we have had. my new pixel is good but no better than the samsungs i had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've still got the original in it's box..along with all of them up to nine. Not sure why...I've been thinking about changing but I worrk I'd lose music or apps or something. I've always hated itunes...complicated and unfriendly IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy moly!!! $1000 clamolas!!!!!!!! i still like the 5s. best sized phone ever. if the 5se phone had been released when i bought the 6s i'd have got the 5se instead. i will say that the 6s with the apple battery case is a sound phone. tough too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phones are just a small to modest part of their business. Reality is smartphones in general have not really came that far in the past 5-10 years. I mean what more can they add to these little devices. Probably the reason they added the watches.

Not according to Motorola. Haven't you seen those commercials. 10 years is probably too far but they haven't changed much in 5. The tech in them is basically the same just got better.

Depends how you look at it. The features are not that different. What new things can smartphones do that they couldn't do 5 years ago?
