    back in my S6 days I loved the phone for the first year. After 365 days, battery life reduced by half. It wouldn't hold a charge. That was back in the days of Samsung batteries blowing up phones. I am sure that is resolved now.

    My iphone 8 has about 80% battery capacity after 2 1/2 years. Best thing about it is talk and txt over wifi with other iphones. I work in a heavily concreted building, lots of RF floating around, and no cell service. Wife and kids can get in touch with me when they need to.

    I don't use my phone for much so it better last until I plug it in at night. The S6 failed in that regard.

    You are correct. No comparison.

    I am short handed because of China virus. I have had to strap the tool belt back on. Today I streamed from my phone to my Bose Revolve for 9 hours, also used it on GPS for an hour as well as 15 2 minute phone calls. It's 9:03pm and I still have 49% battery.

    Love this phone.

    i am kinda an asshole and i really judge people on their phones. iphones brand you as either completely indifferent, or kinda stupid, or kinda class insecure/conscious.

    androids of apple quality can be had at 40% or less of apple prices. everyone that cares at all and has put any thought whatsoever into it has an android. so much better. i forgive girls because they dont care for them its like jewelry or something. all dudes should use android. i use a xiomi mi mix 2s. its brilliant.

    cant complain though as our apple stock is on a rocket ship. if you have no apple stock i feel your pain.

    Very nice. A good 80% tonight.

    I don’t judge people on their phone choice like some fuck nuts do.

    I started with the iPhone 3 as my first one. Then went to the HTC and then the S6. Now back to the IPhone 8. Platforms don’t mean shit. To each their own.
