Very important news about this phone! - Galaxy S6 Edge+ General

Please don’t delete this topic it’s fair warning!
I hate to be right sometimes but as I told long ago after years of testing it turns out that the best camera of Samsung was in S6 / S6Edge+. Test it yourself. Hold S6 in one hand and for example S8 in the other and take a photo in good light. Then zoom it on the phone and you will see that S6 has better details, no artificial brightener while for example S8 has it.
S6 has 16 Mpix and all flagships that came after had 12 Mpix rear camera.
I’ve tested S6 Edge Plus vs. S7 / S8 / S8+, Note8, S9, S9+ and…
only S9+ finally beat S6. (look how Samsung did bad for us from Sep2015 till March2018)
I wish I had NOT sale my S6 and bought a newer one
If You don't believe me? Ask XDA members who has S6 and a later Galaxy S model (but not S9+)
This is a Warning for You don't sell your S6!!!! or sell only if you can afford to buy S9+.
I did the wrong thing so I Warn you no to make the same mistake that I did

Majority is waiting for Note8

See this poll result. The s8 people said Note phones are only a niche product, I don't think so LOL:

5T as upgrade from Note 4..what you guys think? Any feedback is welcome !

Hello!
So my wife has the Note 4 but it is pretty old by now and feels laggy. Unfortunately every new phone has this aspect ratio we both hate 18:9 aside from the Huawei Mate 10 and the the Note FE. Finding the FE seems hard with US warranty and the Mate 10 does not have an OLED screen which she loves. So...as she finds the Note 8 way too long with that hotdog shape...I started thinking the 5t even though is the same aspect ratio, being smaller might be a good alternative. The Mate 10 Pro is also on my short list.
Still, I am leaning towards the 5T the more I read about it. What you guys feel about it after using it for a while? How is Oreo doing on it? Please note that the phone will be completely stock as unlike me, my wife does not want ANY modifications to the stock roms lol
Is battery life really good? From the reviews I read I like that the UI seems very fast and smooth.
Anyways, anything you want to share (and if you came from a Note 4 even better). She does not really use the s-pen so she is fine losing that feature.
Thanks!
I came from Note 4 to OP5T and I love it.

I am guessing the camera is better too?
I am reading a lot of complaints of the 5T camera being worst than the 5 and from samples, it seems like that indeed. I even started considering the Mate 10 Pro now because of that and also the Pixel 2 XL (but with so many burn in issues probably not).
Thanks!
I had different phones, the Xiaomi redmi note 4 lg g6, oneplus 5, s8, and the s8 plus. But I am going to buy to the Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro excellent price performance. The Samsung s8 is also very good if u don't want to flash roms. Easy to setup and system wide ad blocker and almost every month security updates and a very nice screen.
I said go for the s8 the new Samsung experience is very good and many times better than the old touchwiz and a very good battery live and performance.

Worth upgrading to S9+ form S7 Edge?

Hi!
As you saw from my question I am wondering whether it's worth upgrading to S9+ from S7 edge or should I wait for the Note 9 or even S10? What do you think?
Also.. Will there be good development on this device? :fingers-crossed:

Well it was well worth going from my s7 edge to s8 plus so yes of course going to s9 plus is worth it.

i'll be upgrading to the s9+ from the s7e, mostly because my plan runs out conveniently on the 15th.
i'm not as pumped by the actual phone yet, but the size, screen and 6gb RAM and battery bump in the s9+ looks good and it will be great... until March 15th in 2020 when i'll get the Note 12 / T2 / S11 Ultra, whatever that flagship is.
I had thought about the iPhone X/ Razer phone, and in an ideal world, i'd get either one instead, but the razer is not available locally and getting updates or repair/support for grey market phones is abominable in ... Australia.
(And, i'm not really invested in apple tech, despite having a now 5 year old ipad, and an iphone 4 that technically still works ... and basically everyone i know, has iPhone or Samsung)
s9 arrives later in the week, the s7 edge is still a perfectly great phone, until my daughter smashed it.
any excuse to get a new gadget.
Rom advice? I see Alexandr is makiung dev base, may stick with that stock feel, yet the freedom to use magisk modules. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
S7 and S9 are great ,but i prefer the S9 .
It's all worth it .

How's the phone in 2021?

Hello, I'm planning to upgrade my 2018 mid-range phone to a refurbished (fully original) S9 for a good price. But, how's the phone in 2021?
Edit: S9+ comments are also appreciated.
Samsung dropped support for SGS9 so there is no point in buying this phone right now if you want to use official rom. If you are prepared for some AOSP on Samsung you do not have some apps and IME services because of samsung's propitiatory implementations. Although, it's decent phone with amazing display and astonishing camera but after 2,5 year i REALLY NEED to change battery if I want to use my phone more than 5h.
I'm still unsure since new mid-range phones still don't offer the build quality the S9 has (actually they gone worse), or some of them won't be getting 2 year software updates (which makes them stuck in android 11 lol). But in the other hand, s9 stuck with android 10.
Is there any OneUI port from S10, S20 or S21? If there is, how are they? I couldn't see any OneUI port on XDA but maybe it's me being blind.
What do i lose if i use roms. For example, is speaker quality same as stock, or display?
