Android really needs a tablet that can move serious units. The nicer android tablets out right now, the s2, nexus 9 and xperia are all nice, but they are lackingin some way. To me, they are all boring, even though I like my nexus 9. I think that the perfect android tablet would be a blown up s6 edge plus. Looks nice, has top of the line specs, and has that missing it factor, which android tablets don't have. I could see the curved display being useful for multitasking.

Since using the Note 5, the curved glass on the back works much better than the curved glass in the front. An enlarged version of the edge display will make picking it up off the table much more difficult. Android tablets probably aren't moving as much units cause there's also so many brands and different variations out on the market.
To this day I've never seen anyone use an Android tablet out in the wild, just iPads.

Do people still even use tablets? I feel like with the size of phones these days, people will just use their phones.

This is me. I bought an iPad air not long after it was released. Regret buying it cause it's sitting in my drawer and prefer using my phones.

Best buy is offering $385 trade in for my iPhone 6.
The moto x cannot come soon enough so I can still get good value out of the iPhone 6.
I'm just upset that dude said they wouldn't sell in store smh

So damn true
When your get your device immediately root it when it's available. Make a nandroid backup of the stock ROM and NEVER delete it. So in case of a poor touchwiz optimized android M (which is probably gonna happen) you'll be able to revert back to the stock lollipop OS that was bug free. It's way better to do that and less dangerous than downgrading baseband's and firmwares in Odin. I should've done the same thing to my Note 4 when I had Kit Kat I really miss those 6 hour SOT days

Yea I'm actually surprised by the amount of people who aren't happy with their GS6. Seems like it has it all but the battery life and memory leak problems ruined their experience.

In my opinion, battery life is the #1 factor when it comes to rating a phone and the most differentiating factor between modern smartphones.

For my day to day uses, my S6 Edge lasts a full day. Most of the day, i'm in the office connected to wifi tho so that may help the battery life a little. I know for sure when I'm out, it drains much faster.
Anyone have good experiences with the battery life on a Note 5?

The battery on my G3 is starting to wear out, time to get a new one. Is there an app that shows how many charge cycles your battery has been through or somewhere in the settings?

Wealthy doctors' offices use tablets for EMR (electronic medical records).
I'm on mines almost the entire day and when I get home I still have about 15% life left.

Check 'em out side by side with the Note though. That curved back makes it feel a lot more comfortable vs the curved front screen.

Read somewhere that you cant root Note 5 and Samsung S6 edge on AT&T and that it tanks your phone, Dealbreaker if true but i could be wrong
