Hello guys!
I am on xda forum after a very long time. Needs some guidance. I am big fan of note series but now using S7 edge. I am very happy with it but missing S pen. Took S7 edge two months ago. Should I go for an upgrade to note 7 or not?
Thanks in advance

They're the same phone, just ones a bit bigger with a pen. Do you want that? then yes get it.
Simples. =)
FYI im in much the same boat, have the S7 Edge, but want the Note 7. I shouldn't, it isn't worth it, but I want it, so i likely will.
I dont think it is. Same phone except for bigger screen. Plus now edge 7 has root. If the note has root on release maybe id change my mind.

Same here! Feel bad though. Had S7Edge when it first came out. Now want Note 7. When will it end! Only just bought this one!
But I know I will buy it anyway!

During presentation they said something about a graphical chip "mdli" or something similar... (cant remember and it drives me crazy)... is that specific only to Note7 or also to be found on S7.
What about the HDR capability for watching videos? Secure folder? Samsung cloud? are any of this present on S7? I have Note4 and i refused to upgrade because non replaceable battery... i want to upgrade but... that's like 70% important to me

The root is bugy as hell. I've tried many different things to change that and it was still buggy. Engroot is not the same as other root methods.

The mDNIE image processor is unique to the Note 7, and I'm guessing some of that is to handle processing of HDR video. Not sure we'll see that on the regular s7 & S7 Edge.
As for Secure Cloud/folders and such, that is something I could see with an update to the Knox suite.
Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
How important the image processor would be for next 2 years? (assuming next buy will be when my GSM contract expires)
As i understand content needs to be adapted for this. Samsung's representative said Amazon will offer such content and probably others in the future. It does seem HDR is proprietary... will video content makers adopt it? Does it improve the HD content scene?

Hey guys what do you mean by working decently?
I need to be able to root and Note 7 will not be root able for now.
I think S7 could be a choice I can give up my S-pen for root.
I am upgrading from the S7E, because I can.
We can too but is it worth it that is the question. With Sprint update I onky pay 300 dollars but I dont think is worth it without root. From my perspective going from a root note 3 to a non root note 7 is a downgrade.
It is not an upgrade if battery life is worse.

I'm on T-Mobile Jump On Demand and I demanded it a few days ago. I also have loved having a spare battery but starting with the LG V10, and now the S7 Edge, my use no longer demands an always available spare battery. I've had the S7E since March and I've never had a completely drained phone. It was the expanded storage that brought me back to Samsung. Discovering UHQ bluetooth 24\192, to make use of the portable music library was just the cherry on the cake for me to never regret that purchase and now the new Note.
I'm going for it. Only because I got the BOGO deal for my S7E and sold the first one I got. I gave my current edge to my brother for $200 so I'm pretty much covered on the cost for the Note 7 anyways, cruising on an S5 until the phone is released. I'm honestly just interested in it for the IRIS scanner, and the S-Pen and Type-C port. Basically niche features that I enjoy experiencing. So yeah, it's not costing me anything out of pocket but if I were you, I probably would keep the S7E for now until the Note 8 comes out because they are literally the same spec phones as for internals.
Is it worth it to upgrade from s6 edge+? Using it for 7 months now.

Other than the Spen and a slightly bigger screen and some small semi gimmicky items they are real close.
Its the tamer edge screen that sold me on the note and kept me away from the S6/S7v edge devices....i hate the edge screen lol.
If your missing the Spen than yeah I guess its worth it though.

Want to know if it is worth upgrading from the note 5 to note 7? If so Why??
In my opinion it's not worth it.. Almost same design. I think the battery will not be better too. The only pro thing is that the note 7 is waterproof.
Gesendet von meinem SM-N910F mit Tapatalk
Yes.
Edge screen looks nice and futuristic and clearly is the way to go for Samsung flagships moving forward.
Waterpoof.
Much better cameras.
Easier to hold one-handed.
Design so much better, very compact for a 5.7" screen phone.
Better battery.
USB type C.
Iris scanner not needed but still cool.
Micro SD card support with the possibility of using it as adoptable storage.
Only downside is it's expensive.
edit:
Forgot to mention that you can also set the screen to 1080p to save substantial battery life if you can't really see the difference between it and 4k. You can even set to 720p if you want.
I feel like the note 5 and S6 were a step in the right direction design wise, and still have great features when it comes to the hardware. If you don't plan on getting your phone wet and have enough internal storage then I wouldn't upgrade. If you like to store a lot on your phone that's the only reason I would upgrade if I were you. Otherwise the camera is still top of the line, the fingerprint scanner is fast& secure, and the phone still has the premium look and feel.
Yes for the sd card slot if nothing else.

4k? I thought it was 1440! But anyway imo it's not worth it at all. What do you gain? Do you have a problem with note 5? If it's performance related note 7 is likely the same or if it's thr purple smudge

Yes, what I meant was 2k, not 4k, lol.
No purple smudge on my Note5. No real problem with Note5 except the very limited 32gb storage, which I obviously knew about before buying. I thought it was going to be enough, I was wrong.

I actually made a thread although now i regret it because I thought the phone is released but it seems it's still not out yet! But they said the same thing about note 4 and ot does have it. Are you sure? Have you checked in gallery? Maybe the picture you check is bright! How about lag or delays. When you compare it next to a nexus or an iPhone.is it smooth?

Yea my pretty sure my Note5 doesn't have that issue.
About lag, are you asking about the Note7? With my brief time with it in the store, I can say there aren't any lags but of course it may be different when we're actually using it as our own.
To put it in perspective, what motivation will Nexus 6P owners have to upgrade to the 2016 version? It'll have generationally better h/w but what else? Especially considering the OS is/was/will be the same on both devices. Hardware and software has matured so the generational differences between devices get smaller each year. Unless you're a big gamer what apps are going to be noticeably faster between Exynos 7420 and 8890 or Snapdragon 810 and 820? If you want a Note7 and feel like spending the money, get it. If not I'm guessing 90% of what you do on your phone would perform just as well on a Note5. I've personally given up on rationalizing getting a new phone every year. I just chalk it up to a whim because I like the latest and greatest.

Nothing to rationize really, if I want a new device i buy one its not like I need to make a list of pluses and minuses or try to justify it..thats ridiculous its a phone not a car. Not a really major expense lol.
In this particular case though for me going from note 5 i do really want the SD support the 7 offers.

I gave up on the note 5 along time ago mainly because of the poor battery life, I went to the s7e and battery is much better. I really like the s7e but will be getting a note 7 as soon as it's out to test the loser will be the back up phone

Thats due to the water resistance likely, which for myself is pointless as i am not stupid enough to use my device in a wet enviroment.
I would much rather ditch that and have far better audio quality. Personal preference of course and others seem to find the water resistance important
If the audio is that bad it would be a deal breaker for me and i will send it back.

This sort of question is THE most common on all forum brands. The answer is yes and no. In other words some will upgrade while others are still happily using the note 1. It is a very personal issue and one only you can answer.
Let us know what you decide?
Ryland :good:
HAD a Note 7 which is as we all know best in class for camera, water resistance but despite being a PhoneAholic can't decide whether or not to go for Pixel XL..had every Nexus device and sometimes miss extra features that Samsung provide...but then HATE their slow firmware update schedule....decisions decisions !
Sent from my SM-N930W8 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Im right there with you. Just got me replace Note and I love this phone but the promise of the bleeding edge is calling me toward the pixel xl.
My decision is going to be based on two items.
1. What's the rear glass for?
2. Is that display pressure sensitive?
My guess is the purpose of the glass is the same as the 6p....it's just to transmit the antenna signals and data and stuff. The screen being pressure sensitive was a rumor I heard a while back but nothing more since then....so my guess is it won't have it. I also heard that the fingerprint sensor was supposed to have gesture control.....but that rumor mill has been silent too.....so I'll assume it won't have that either.
The pressure sensitive display rumor is alive and well. The pixel launcher tear down shows icons with an api for what's called quick actions.
I'm hoping the rear glass is for either wireless charging or a touch panel

I think it's just the fingerprint scanner that can detect gestures: http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...fication-shade-gesture-coming-on-new-nexuses/
Wireless charging would be great. I was really disappointed not having it in the current nexus line.

Still wouldn't need an entire rear glass for that.
Rear glass: wireless charging capabilities and antenna or a second display? Who knows?!
I really want to see if it can be a monocrome second display. It could be awesome. It can be used for notifications or something else!
I don't think, for now, it worth changing...

pixel xl if you can afford it
why not glass glass is for better protection then plastic
idk
Stick with the Note 7 for a few months and then if people love the XL pick one up.
As long as the note is exynos then note all the way...not even a fair comparison.
If its a snapdragon note then pixel....thats also an easy choice.

This lag is killing me!! Battery isn't so great either. Might have to bust a move over to the pixel. 6P was a great phone. Not a big fan of HTC thought.

Same boat here, haven't got my Note7 yet as its backordered, I can get it for free since I'm on a corporate plan or pay for the Pixel XL, not sure if its worth it though...
nvm
No sdcard , 2.0f camera (bad lowlight performance), not water resistant...
And historically mediocre to poor build quality. Does not seem too enticing.

If you want Project Fi then go Pixel.
If you want to flash various cool ROM's then go Pixel.
If neither, then Note 7 all the way.
I answer "yes" to both questions, so I'm very interested in the Pixel depending on how well it reviews.

Do you really think the pixel xl will be community friendly? I imagine a lot of those exclusive features won't be portable over to custom Roms. Just saying. And their a lot of their optimizations also.

Love flashing Roms. And the latest software. But I don't see how this phone is just as much as an iPhone or a note 7. Should be few hundreds less in my opinion. Note 7 here I come. Maybe I'll get a cheap Nexus 5x for my flashing addiction.
Mate, even I'm keeping my Nexus 6
Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the OnePlus 3T. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I prefer to root my devices but OOS is very clean from bloatware.
feels very solid, keeps good in hand but require some kind of skin as it is but sliipy but not as htc 10 or iphone 7

I'm using Samsung s7 on Nougat patch and would like to have a few opinion on the difference of experience.
I'm planning to switch primarily for experience of stock android (google pixel is too expensive) and for software updates as Samsung tend to do a poor job on this one. I want to have the latest version of Android.

I use Gmail for 2 Gmail accounts and 2 Yahoo accounts.
The stock calendar is Google calendar.
There is a memo widget in the swipe right screen on the stock launcher and all tiles are customizable. It's very handy.
The stock latest nougat version is super lean and nearly stock Android, no real bloatware. It's very fast and fluid, I think you will like it. The notification slider is very handy too, something that you didn't know you want until you have it.
The only thing I would like on the phone would be dual front facing speakers, other than that it's perfect for my liking. The slightly curved glass on edges feels great in hand but tempered glass screen protectors are a PITA to find one (only real one that covers whole screen and actually adheres to screen is the official curved tempered glass screen protector).
Keep in mind too the screen is only 1080p, it is a Samsung amoled panel, but you are losing some pixel density from the S7. But it is as good as a 1080p screen gets, and saves power.
What about its stock email client? I use Samsung's default email client for around 7 mailboxes via IMAP and it works very nicely as subtle details like gestures for drag to move contacts from TO to CC is very useful for me, as well as built in text formatting. Handling attachments is very easy as well.

They seem to be very good. Check out the general forum. It was one of the first phones with nougat 7.0, it's on 7.1.1 now, and even have a beta program for newest versions. There was an update within the last few days also.
Now whether it will keep up after the new OnePlus phone comes out is in question.
The custom ROM scene will probably keep it updated for years to come though. Even the OnePlus one has perfect custom ROMs on the latest Android and are updates all the time. But you have to be willing to flash a recovery and ROM.
Got it, thanks!

Oneplus is pretty good
I'd say my expectations has been concurred. The Oneplus latest phone is both amazing in screen quality and performance. It makes and overall remarkable speed and quality and not to mention its camera. I bet the new Oneplus has some even better specs to bring os.
It's too early saying that OnePlus is good with Updates. OnePlus 2 it's abandoned, OP1 was a total failure (due to CM) and never got updated with OOS. OPX? They forgot about it (neither security patches). What i think? It's the best smartphone for price/specs. Yeah it's supported right now but when the new OP will come out our 3T will die. Hopefully Modding is our solution
The OnePlus One has 7.1.1 roms that are perfect (ala RR and others), so I would guess devs will keep us up to date for some time. Unlocking bootloader and flashing are easy on OnePlus phones.

One plus one was debacle due to cm thingy, and op2 had it'd own problems of SOC and all. Op3 came out to be perfect, and that's why they are going overboard for the updates for this phone.
And this will be supported for quite some time.

My OP3T is very late on security patches, which is quite surprising and disappointing.

Just me, or is the Essential phone a bargain compared to that? Especially since; camera mostly fixed by software update, 4-5x less notch, ANDROID, still edge to edge screen, still premium materials, half the price. Missing face recognition *gimmick* Missing water proofing *legit but not necessary*
I am very tempted with the Essential phone, 500 with titanium and ceramic. Should be quicker SW updates too compare to other none Google Android phone. But it is hard to give up that immediate SW update from Google now that I have the pixel.
