Re: 4G First
Last year I tried Sprint on their $15 deal, calls and texts were fine, data was all over the place and mostly not up to par. Except for one area, my daughter goes to Pharmacy school in Philadelphia, right next to but not part of UPenn, (USciences Philadelphia College of Pharmacy.) Was getting like almost 60 down and about 25 up. I was in shock and one of the few bright spots in their coverage,
Maybe ...
Re: What "FOCUS" on design?
Same parent company that make's Blu devices.
Phew
I can understand not wanting Huawei being used for infrastructure, but the phones no. Every device spies on you. One of my daughters uses a Mate 10 Pro, great phone. This just protects US companies like Apple, and our close allies like Korea and Samsung.
Re: OnePlus One
Maybe, it is expensive but better then what you would spend on a similar phone. I would have liked the option of the lower OP7 being offered. Even before being picked up by T-Mobile, One Plus did rather well in the US read somewhere they were either the 2nd or 3rd largest market for their phones.
Still I bought one, with an extended warranty and through OP and not my through T-Mobile. Selling some stuff ...
Re: in Favor of T-Mobile / Sprint Merger
I'm,mixed as a T-Mobile customer, having 4 major carriers is better, other options never surfaced like another large non mobile company taking Sprint over and investing.
On the other side, T-Mobile implementing 2100 5g network would be far better than other implantation while not as good as lower frequencies its penetration and range are better than what would be used now.
Bought it
Picked up a new LG G thinq for $499 could have paid more, but its locked to T-Mobile whom i use and can get a permeant un lock in lock 40 days and a temporary on for 20-30 days if I need it. Since it will also work on Mint, my other extra line it will work on it. Don't plan on leaving T-Mobile in the conceivable future, there is no issue, rarely buy carrier phones, it ...
Got it almost Free.
I got this z3 Play for almost free, sold some older stuff and needed something while my other device was out for warranty worked, oddly it came back in like 4 day's and basically they sent me a new phone, Pixel 3xl,
What I do like which many won't is the size with the battery mod, it fits real good in the hand a last for days. Screen is good but not great, notice no lag and ...
Re: Nokia 7.1
I bought one on sale about a Month ago, vert well made, for average no gaming use it's on target. I've read mixed reviews, mine has been positive. The Asian and Euro versions game with 3gb of ram, while the beefed it to 4gb which I do think helped. No it's no Pureview, LG 8 thinq or S10 and online with similar to devices at a discounted price as similar Moto devices. Don't think there's ...
5G
Be it AT&T or anyone else, I wouldn't even consider 5g being useful except for very limited areas for at least 2 years. And while I have no idea about the technology behind what's going to be used, I'm sure there will be more bands added that spending extra for an already expensive phone at present foolish.
Re: Huge in Belgium too...
I honestly I think they do this on purpose.
I like it.
Recently acquired NWIB Z3 Play, need a quick replacement for a few weeks, and a friend who got one in some deal for free basically traded some stuff and some help in doing stuff for the phone. Yeah it's big and bulky with the included battery back. and impossible to get a case for it with the battery pack. But oddly, I like the device, battery life is real good, speed for a SD 636 is pretty ...
Re: Good
Or maybe a Labradoo?
Good
Just in time for them to become T-Mobile's poodle, and actually get it working.
Re: lol
You're an optimist..
Nice Option
Right now I use a Tech 21 Pure Clear right now, and have a back up Spigen Tough Armor, and a cheap Folio wallet one. The later two were inexpensive. The LifeProof likes decent as well. If I need another which I doubt. I may get one too.
$279.99 on Amazon
Not bad, but one big caveat, it uses a Mediatek Craptocore P60.
Re: Fortnite and Headphones
Going to get the unlocked US version from Best Buy, and really don't care about fornite, but would like the headphones.
Re: Note 9 Pre Order Colors
I think I'm going to get the blue one. Honestly it's almost a non issue for me, because I'm going to case it, and usually I pick black. Ordered a cheap but good Spigen Tough Armor for like $16, and will get a Tech 21 at some later date.
Merger
Recently like since this past May, I ported to T-Mobile, basically do to their Military/Vet discount. Also for a goof took the $15 per month Sprint special which I use with my Essential. I honestly can't see what Sprint can do for T-Mobile. While I won't say Sprint's service is bad, it's far from good. Oddly for whatever reason Sprint in Philadelphia is outstanding, otherwise it's like 8 down and 4 up, give or take. ...
Re: LG G7
I thought it was using the Qi standard?? Doubtful I'd get one of these dual chargers. I don't know who's the fastest wireless charger, as long as it isn't slow like previous generations, the last few offerings from Samsung and others do a decent job.
Oddly the main reason I use my Samsung wireless charger, is more to see my phone as a clock at night, then actually caring if I use a regular wired ...
If Sprint was smart?
If Sprint was smart, which is doubtful, they would allow this phone on their system, and even offer it for sale, even if it was online only. But one never know's they do sell the Essential, and using it on their $15.00 month special which they offered last month. After taxes and fee's comes to just over $19.00. It isn't as bad as people claim, but it's nowhere as good as the other three major ...
Re: And for slightly more............
Are they still in business, I think they just laid off a few thousand employees.
Didn't?
Didn't Google buy the license for this stuff from Lystro?
Re: The Pink Has to Go
Yeah and look just how well those colors did for them.
So the new Company will be called?
What will the new company be called TW-ATT?
Re: No way
Anything that gets CDMA2000 gone is a good thing to humanity. Caused more compatibility problems then any benefit it has had.
Re: No way
Yes, ad isn't Verizon starting a new so called mvno?
Re: No Thanks
I can see them divesting Boost and Virgin, but I doubt that T-Mobile selling off Metro PCS. As far as Boost and Virgin not surviving, I think they could make it on their own (as a combined Boost/Virgin company. They have good name recognition and serve a purpose to those who prefer pre paid and for those who can't afford post paid plans.
Re: Wow B25 and B26 too?!?
Yeah, another promise of building a great network, same thing year after year after year. Softbank didn't do squat, hopefully T-Mobile will do something, like using their spectrum and getting rid of CDMA.
Hah
I'm worried about our own government and companies snagging out information then China. Though I understand about not using them from infrastructure, but the phones?? They need to turn over the back of their phones and see just where they're made. I would like to see them have an export ban or products produced in their respective states.
Have to Give Essential Credit.
Got the monthly patch today on my Essential, I have to give them credit, they're keeping up and solving their problems.
Some Truth But??
Huawei lost momentum first with the loss of the AT&T, and possible the VZW deal, BB for what ever reason did sell their devices stopped selling them, agreed but still move on. Stick with Amazon and maybe some other brick and morter, for I would be interested in the P20 Pro (depending on price). And if all things being equal at what I'd be interested in getting, and I mean equal, not better not worse, I'd pick ...
Downloaded This Morning.
I had been running 8.1 beta for a few weeks, just around the time Essential allowed for it to be done OTA, and through registration of your phone's serial number, it was approved and downloaded it the next day. This morning, on another phone site, they said it was ready for non-beta available, did a check, and it downloaded. More then likely it was the same or close to the same as the beta rom, which I had ...
Long Live the New Patent Troll
Seems except for a few die hard BlackBerry users, the company is going down the patent troll path instead of the innovation path.
Re: Really?
LOL, do you even need to ask?
Nice but?
This does seem like a well designed mid level device at flagship pricing. If they were to officially sell it in the US at around $600 I would consider it. But not with last year snapdragon and this display.
Re: Verizon sucks
You mean their former employee?
Re: LTE Band compatibility
That's because fearless leader and his clown FCC director, who spouts corporate freedom pressured both AT&T and Verizon Wireless not to carry Huawei Mate 10 Pro for some pie in the sky security reasons. I could understand if it was for the infrastructure but a phone?
Solution to a problem that rarely exists.
1. This is 1992 calling and we want our roof mount antenna back.
2. Is this mess of wires, magnetic mounts for the vast majority of the people really worth the cost, time, mess, effort and possible damage to the outside of the car, or to door/hatch seals?
3. We both live in NJ, I'm somewhat south of you, have both an AT&T and T-Mobile lines. Very few area's I don't get a signal and for the most ...
One Plus 6?
