Such a sexy phone.
Damn it is 7.1.1 September 2017 update.
Guess it never had a second shipment lol.
Seems solid so far. Great build and design. Sexiest phone I've own yet. Especially for $250.Doing many updates though.
Vibration motor sucks
Help.
My Galaxy S6 finally busted and I need a new phone. What's good?
Seems usable, shutter speed is a bit slow though. Above the competition at $250 though.
It is. I'd still say its the best designed phone currently on the market in the US. Makes the notch look good and not really a compromise.
Looking at an S9 and thinking "yeah that's probably fine?" But the cost is a little off-putting.

All the talk about drop resistance makes me sad. I don't drop my phone and have never broken a screen. Scratches though... even babying my phones, they still get microscratches.

Oh sweet, one of the main reasons I wanted a Samsung watch was for the Samsung Pay, but something small enough to put on my keychain would be even more convenient (especially if the battery lasts for several days at a time).On another note, they're bringing what is called, "LoopPay Valet":

Now they need to have it everywhere so that people can get on board.

I'm curious if you can have more than one card on it at a time, I'm sure you can switch it with a phone app or something but having at least 2 on it at a time would be nice.
Also wonder if this'll work on iPhones, pretty sure Samsung Pay on their watches didn't work on iOS, but since the whole purpose of this thing is to be a digital card I would hope it would work on anything.
Shame it's not going straight to commercial, I'd buy one right away if it was.You definitely can add more than one card for it. :)
It'll also work with iPhones as well. BTW, I just E-mailed John Ayers about it, & asked him when will it be available, & if we can buy one. He says that it isn't a commercial device yet & is being used as part of a closed pilot.
They hope that it will go commercial in the future.
for 20 I think anyone would buy it, its worth just to have some fun once lolI'm enjoying the essential phone enough that I ordered the 360 camera.
27 after shipping.for 20 I think anyone would buy it, its worth just to have some fun once lol

It will have a fucking dedicated Bixby button.https://www.sammobile.com/2018/07/18/exclusive-galaxy-watch-tizen

Guess I'll still look for news about the S4 watch.
They keep pushing GG towards more shatter resistance but at the expense of scratch resistance. (Hardness and brittleness on glasses are a continuum, the harder the glass is, the more brittle it is.)
That is amazingWell I got my Essentual Phone today... as an empty box. The Amazon box was sealed but the phone was open and all the stuff was missing.
Opened a case with Amazon.. holding out for a phone as I ordered the fucking camera this morning already.
Buying expensive stuff from Amazon is always a gamble given how lax they are with the returns and how rarely often they get actually checked before being thrown into the warehouse again unless they were returned for being defective.
Had my S8+ over a year and no screen protector. Not a single scratch.
It only ever goes in my pocket and my left pocket is phone only. Everything else goes in the right.
Hmmm there's gotta be some microscratches.Had my S8+ over a year and no screen protector. Not a single scratch.

Yep. I've had mixed success with their open box/ refurbished items. Went through like 4 kindles before finding one in good shape.
Ah. Guess I'm fortunate being a prime member for yearsBut in this case it happens a lot with supposedly new and sealed stuff. And when it happens you can only pray they don't try to pin it on you, especially if your account is recent or you're not a big spender.

Check with a flashlight.
I remember the back of my s8 was scratched up even with a case.
God I hate glass back phones
