I'm split on the whole headphone jack thing. Example: on my ps4, I run an astro a50 headset, which is completely wireless. But when you lose charge, you gotta plug it in, which essentially makes it a wired headset. I'm tired of charging everything. Already, you have to charge (listing for people in general) phone, watch, ecig , laptop, Bluetooth speaker etc. Now my damn earphones too? Yes, I RARELY use my earphone jack. Yes, I usually stream through Bluetooth. The one exception, is when I fly. Although when riding a bike, wearing a wired headset is annoying.

If it's received well overtime, it'll probably become standard, unfortunately. It gives companies more stuff to sell.

only a matter of time.
lg will be da last one standing to still offer removable batteries, removable storage, and a headphone jack on devices that will bootloop on you and have to get sent in for service in 4-6 months after purchase.

Nah usually Sammy does something and Apple copies later. The audacity to charge 150$ for some earbuds though. Saw a lot of luke warm and negative reaction to the reveal today though. Too bad Sammy has a nuke Note.

correct, instead google thought i'd be better to almost abandon the app thats already installed on damn near every modern android device (hangouts) and replace them with two separate apps (allo and duo) to handle messaging and video calling.

while we're complaining about Google... couple weeks out and nougat still hasn't released for nexus 6/6p. the main reason i stick with Android is nexus and the immediate updates.
maybe I'll get the iPhone 8.

Not sure about the reasoning for the 6, but the 6p nougat was having issues with a ton of wakelock problems which is why google didn't release the factory image. If you want it on your 6p you can signup for the beta program and it'll automatically push the official nougat update to your device (not the beta) and you can unenroll from the beta after you're updated. Did it for my brother and he's on the official 7.0 on his 6p

Welp. Using my upgrade on the i7+ then smh. I wish google would focus more on the CORE features of the phone before giving us every other feature in the world smh. The best software engineers in the world and an incredible amount of money, but none of the geniuses in that company can figure out what the people really wantcorrect, instead google thought i'd be better to almost abandon the app thats already installed on damn near every modern android device (hangouts) and replace them with two separate apps (allo and duo) to handle messaging and video calling.I'm assuming the answer is "no"
I miss the customization and openness of Android, but the more i grow in life the more i need the main COMMUNICATION features to work flawlessly. We all know Apple is gonna go super big for the iPhone 8, so if Google doesnt get it together by then its a wrap

Yeah it pretty much is a wrap if they dont cuz Apple is gonna damm near try and make the phone/iOS flawless for 8. Google just has to lock in on the communication and they would legitimately have a threat.

Yep. Most people i know on this side say that they dont care what features Apple doesn't have or what features are available elsewhere, as long as they have iMessage and FT, they are staying. And you know what?....Yeah it pretty much is a wrap if they dont cuz Apple is gonna damm near try and make the phone/iOS flawless for 8.
