I'm a bit conflicted. My iPhone 7 will be here tomorrow but day one I'll swap this Note7 out for a new one. I'll probably mostly rock the Note7 and use the iPhone for stuff like the gym and when I just wanna change phones.
You get that Black IPhone shyt that is supposed to be easily scratchable?

You thought I forgot?

:ufdup:

Nah, I was simply waiting for additional evidence of Samsung's epic fail to pile up...and, man does good evidence come to those who wait.

First let's put things in perspective by discussing the timing of this failure. As you may know, a little company by the name of Apple just released its latest flagship phone to great reviews: iPhone 7 and 7 Plus review: The future in disguise

Now, when smartphone customers travel to their local retailer looking for a flagship phone...they can choose between the beautiful iPhone 7 and the Note 7...oh wait, no, they can't because the Note 7 is exploding, recalled, and no longer available for sale.

:ufdup:

Next up, let's talk money. Have you seen Samsung's stock lately? Have you seen how Samsung's market share has reduced by tens of billions USD? Samsung loses $26 billion of market value after Note 7 recall

Yes their price may have rebounded some but it's still down significantly over where it was before the explosions started.

Nevermind the cost of replacing these phones... $$$

Nevermind the individual and class-action lawsuits that are coming... $$$

Nevermind the potential government fines... $$$

:ufdup:


Next up, let's talk brand image. Samsung is taking a significant beating over this fiasco. Let's see... the FAA just officially prohibited the use of Note 7s on airplanes. So on that cross country flight the beautiful lady sitting next to you can watch the latest episode of Narcos on her beautiful iPhone 7 plus while you are forced to turn off your Note 7, leaning over struggling to take a peak at her screen.
It's illegal to use Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 on a plane, says FAA

Also note that Samsung issued an update to South Korean Note 7s that peg their battery at a max charge if 60%.

Nevermind the injuries that the explosions have caused...

Nevermind the property damage that the explosions have caused... I'm just sure that these folks will line right up to purchase another Samsung phone. :dry:

:ufdup:

Now...I ask you kind sir, are you now willing to admit defeat and acknowledge that this is a Certified Epic Fail on Samsung's part?

Bro 'nem
They still behind in the camera game?
Hell no, the nexus 6p delivered on every level:mjcry::wow:. It's a year old at this point but the new ones about to drop. Good cameras require proprietary software and Google finally gave up trying to force open source off the shelves software on nexus phones and decided to make their own exclusive shyt. Bow nexus phones are more of Google experience phones instead of stock Android developer phones.

:russ::lolbron::mjlol: After close to 2 weeks of stonewalling & this pathetic puff piece is the best that you could assemble? :pachaha:




Despite delirious iPhone fanatics praying for Samsung's downfall, along with the biased, overzealous U.S. media circus & federal agencies pouncing on an opportunity to make it appear they actually have the consumers best interests in mind :heh: (while turning a blind eye for over a decade regarding Apple's blown up iPhone's, IPod's, iPad's & defective battery issues) Samsung will still retain it's title as the preeminent smart phone manufacture in the world.

Here's an evaluation from one of the leading pro Apple sites in the world (which has infuriated Apple cheerleaders:jawalrus:) declaring the Note 7 is still the best smart phone & that the new iPhone 7 doesn't measure up..

Galaxy Note 7 review: The best smartphone money can’t buy

Don't let a few explosions put you off.

Forget what you’ve read about the Galaxy Note 7 exploding (and wiping out family cars, hotel rooms and homes). Samsung’s latest phablet delivers an improved design, faster internals, an iris scanner, the same great camera we got with the Galaxy S7 and an even better display.

When this baby goes on sale again, without that dreaded battery fault, it will be the best smartphone available — and the iPhone 7 (probably) won’t change a thing.



Here’s why this the Galaxy Note 7 is the best smartphone you’ll find this year — despite Samsung’s “heartbreaking” $1 billion recall.



Galaxy Note 7: Samsung’s best yet

Samsung’s smartphone division has been on a roll for a while now, and it continues with the Note 7. It’s the prettiest, most enjoyable smartphone of 2016 so far, with an outstanding display, a spectacular camera, great performance and excellent software.

Sadly, you can’t buy one right now. Thanks to a battery fault, which has forced Samsung to recall all 2.5 million units sold so far, sales are on hold worldwide while existing customers get their handsets replaced.
The good news is, the Note 7 is coming back.

When it does, it will continue to be unbeatable. I can’t think of another smartphone you can buy today that offers so much in such a magnificent package. Don’t even consider anything else; hold onto your cash until the Note 7 goes on sale again and get one.
