Samsung is taking back the title of the best android manufacturer. The s6 and note 5 are smooth and have the best hardware in the game .

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.

Same here, I love my s6edge and my battery does not drain quick.

Dear Android Gods

Please let the sexyiness that is the Note 5 stay glorious and lag free

 

[you go boy]

got my htc m9 today and overall pretty happy with it.. definitely a step up from the m7...the camera and display obviously is not as great as the galaxy edge + but i knew that... i saw it today at verizon while getting my htc hooked up took 2 hours and it looks dope... i even told my pops to get it instead of the iphone 6+s because he already got the s4 so he knows about android... i like sense more than touchwiz and that was the main reason i got the htc over the samsung but im happy with it...going to cop a memory card for it then im good

Some people believe that Android M doesn’t deserve the title of Android 6, mainly because it isn’t as big of an overhaul as previous Android 1.x releases have been or because it doesn’t accompany the visual changes we’ve seen on previous 1.x releases.

While on some level this is true, going over the long list of improvements does really put into perspective how big of an update M truly is.

Let’s go over all the features we will(or might) see on Android M:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

• Now on Tap
• Permissions Management
• SD Cards can be “merged” with internal storage
• Android Pay
• Native fingerprint authentication
• Automatic app data backups
• App Links (you’re going to see less of those “what do you want to open this in?” prompts)
• Doze and App Standby
• Multi Window(currently hidden, uncertain future)
• Theming support(currently hidden, uncertain future)
• Dark theme(removed, uncertain future)
• Customisable Quick Toggles along with other UI tweaking
• Visual Voicemail Support
• Redesign of the Clock Widget and Music Identification Widget
• New “Memory” Section in Settings(it was there before, but hidden)
• Support for deleting screenshots directly through the notification centre after they’ve been taken
• Landscape mode available for the Google Now Launcher(feature will likely be backported to older versions of Android)
• New app and widget drawer with scroll bar support and vertical scrolling
• Built-In File Manager receives a bump in functionality
• Native tap to wake support
• Ability to disable “heads up” or “peeking” notifications
• Native 4K output support
• Stricter APK validation
• MIDI support
• USB Type C support
• New boot animation
• Introduction of a “voice interaction” API to allow better interaction with voice actions in apps
• Toggling battery saver by voice
• Ability to undo and redo text changes with bluetooth keyboard shortcuts
• Multi-selection to merge, delete or share has been added in the contacts application
• Faster text selection along with a floating toolbar for text actions
• Default apps UI
• Direct share can allow you directly share stuff with contacts through the share menu
• Much more granular app info
• Native bluetooth stylus support
• Split-screen keyboard
• Mobile radio active bug will be fixed
• Better do not disturb along with repeat caller exceptions
• Bluetooth scanning to improve location accuracy
• Native flashlight API
• Easier access to Multi volume controls(ringer, media, alarm)
• Smoother volume scrubbing (credits to Jason Efstathiou)

Putting all those features aside there are also a number of under-the-hood improvements that seem to have had a very positive impact on both performance and power usage.

I’m puzzled as to how someone could call this a “minor” update.

Do it

I agree.

 

[AZwildcats]

I'm fine with the lollipop aesthetic, M is rightfully under the good improvements

Same here for the most part. Overall improvements to the ecosystem is what I'm looking towards. Can't wait until the finished product is released.

 

[cubanref]

If anyone wants a free S6 Edge case let me know. Pm me your info and I'll send it out this week when I get a chance

 

[yeah]

The new Blackberry Venice phone.

Can't wait.

 

[tripda6]

Patiently waiting for that moto x pure...
Wish I could check it out in store before copping tho.

Its fire.

^ cant wait...
Ended up with a moto g as an emergency phone for a bit after "losing" my s5 and was really impressed.
After 4 years of Samsung I figured it was time to switch it up.

 

[davizzy]

Want the new Moto X but I sure do miss imessage right now

The new Blackberry Venice phone.

Can't wait.

I remember when I got the Sidekick 4G back in the day, this reminds me of that phone. Can't wait to use one and see if Blackberry comes correct with the specs and hardware

 

[ncvikingx97]

I like the interface of the gear s2, I'm curious to see what that looks like. The new blackberry looks coo, but I'd rather see a passport with android

 

[illmatic34]

Is anyone here NOT looking forward to the Nexus 5? I'd much rather have the Moto X Pure hands down. Going off the rumored specs, I feel like they're pretty much neck and neck minus the fingerprint scanner which isn't really a deal breaker for me. And I'm betting my house that the Moto X camera will be way better than what LG trots out.

 

[big j 33]

I'm interested only if the screen size/design/in hand feel is that  much better than the Moto X.

The 2014 Moto X was well designed so the size didn't feel that big, but it's even bigger now. All things being equal, I'd probably stick with the Moto because I like their tweaks to Android, unless it just feels awful in hand.

I'm more optimistic about the Moto X then the next Nexus. If they price the Nexus above the Moto they can keep it

Had the same phone. I ended up trading it in less than a week for an HTC Amaze

 

[sooperhooper]

That blackberry looks legit. I miss physical keyboards.

Whichever is cheaper.

I like flashing ROMs and using phones one-handed. Easy choice to go with Nexus for me.

Anybody looking to see what Sony is going to do with their conference on Wednesday?
