Bruh the G2 is a problem. And root that joint? It is a wrap. And when the Nexus 5 drops!? Double wrap it.

 

[milestailsprowe]

Sadly I gotta stick it out with my Nexus 4. Too Broke right now

 

[stay lurkin]

I heard that.

What is the advantage of a screen being curved? I don't get it.

Never understood the point of this either....

Not sure what kind of curved screen LG is talking about but,

I had both the HTC Sensation and Nexus S4g with a curved screen.

That Curved Screen Samsung Galaxy Round Is a Real Thing

If you're looking to get weird with your phone, the curved screen of the official Samsung Galaxy Round is a good start. Well, sort of. The curved 5.7-inch screen—same as the uncurved Note 3—is a real thing that Samsung is actually making but it's only launching on SK Telecom in South Korea.

There doesn't seem to be any real sensible justification for a curved screen (for the time being, at least) other than hey, look at this weird technology that exists on my phone. That's not stopping Samsung from marketing the Round's 'roll effect' as a feature though. You basically roll the phone to wake the screen to see the time and your notifications. I guess that's sort of justifying the curved screen but still, baaaaaarely:






Marginally cool? Maybe. Mostly just really weird. Everything else is solid though: 2.3GHz quad core. 3GB RAM. 32GB storage. 2800mAh battery. Let weird be weird.

While in your pocket it will conform to your thigh to it won't leave as much of an imprint. Only benefit I can imagine.

[COLOR=#red]Samsung be on some weird ish sometimes. Galaxy Round?? That name is horrible, the concept almost as bad.

Anyway the G2 is real my dudes...go mess around with one at the store! you'll be amazed. The screen is nothing less than spectacular.[/COLOR]

 

[JayDean03]

Actually doesn't look all that bad.

 

[milestailsprowe]

I really like it but I think samsung is just releasing every damn concept product they can think of make some money on it then use what wins into future products.

Expect to see curved displays on the S5

Either way, I am all for adding SMS/MMs to Hangouts. It will hurt and allow people to remove messaging, hadncent, textra, and whatever else people are using out there these days. I normally just hangout with all my friends anyways.

I wonder how Apple will treat Hangouts in the App Store with that update? I wonder if they would play the "too much like an Apple app" BS on them with that one?

\Apple messages are encrypted and secure. Nobody can read them if intercepted except the en duser it was intended for. Im sure most would rather use apples

Man i crack up when im on public wifi networks sniffing traffic and read people text messages who are conectted to wifi, then they look at me and wondering why im laughing and smirking at them

Welp just ordered the G2..will give my mom the HTC One as her first smartphone…wanted the Note 3 but I'll try this out for a while. If I don't like it I'll just sell my note 2 or G2 for the N3 when the price drops. Really liked the One but I really did miss having a larger screen. It makes a big difference when my phone replaces my laptop for internet access since I don't have WiFi

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

I'm really thinking about getting the note 3..

 

[jus3]

what's the best way to set wallpaper without losing resolution?

SIdenote, this note 3 is beastly.

 

[Gordonson]

Make sure it's the resolution of your phone's screen or higher is what I usually do.

also have a One right now and thinkin of using my upgrade on the G2, such a solid phone.

 

[youngtriz]

i like that the note 3 has group messaging. still waiting for the s view cover...

 

[datkidfiasco]

Used a note 3 yesterday , i need it , I NEED IT

 

[Good Ol J.R]

Ok AT&T heads, I need some help here.

So I was promised an early upgrade (like 1.5 year early upgrade) to the next program and to the Note 3. Basically I've been told wrong (supposedly) and now it's not an option and I have to pay for the phone upfront. A store rep, an internet rep and several customer care reps told me this was more than possible and yesterday I got hung up on by a damn supervisor!

I got my bill lowered because of this but I feel like they should honor their word. What is the best course of action? Should I threaten to walk again?

 

[JayDean03]

Imma test out some phones today. I really like da G2 and N5. Da N3 I might pass on. Kinda tired of oversized phones. I miss holding my phone comfortably.

G2 with root and da latest ROM=

Call back and complain that you got hung up on.. one of my homies got fired from a job because he hung up on a customer 

I'm pretty sure they're all recorded 

 

[kingfoamnyc]

If the N5 is 299 I will pay my sprint ETF , sell my One , and hop on that T-Mobile unlimited plan . Since I'm bringing my own phone it will literally be "contract free"

 

[Good Ol J.R]

yeah I called back and that's how I got my bill lowered. I'm not trying to be "that guy" but if you say you can do something, I expect you to honor that.

 

[lilzunchi]

yeah man, if the h5 is $300 might as well flip this ONE (great phone) and make a ccouple bucks while upgrading. Although I love the sound quality on the one.....

If you complain enough they'll do extra things for you

I think this is the plan for a lot of folks.. including myself 

Minus the T-Mobile part
