shipments seem to be in November,first half. (hardwarezone forums)

What you guys moving from?
Me I'm moving from gflex2. Lovely phone so comfortable, but it often lags terribly and takes 10 seconds just to share. I have serious performance issues with it,but it's very very comfortable phone.
Between buying the gflex2 and now, I bought Samsung s6 edge and note 5 but sold them almost immediately. They are delicate fragile phones prone to damage (I like naked no cases thanks). Worst of all I hate the physical home button and the back arrow on the wrong place. And the retarded UI. Also so uncomfortable to hold.

Changing from a nexus 5(2013) stock rooted with xposed. Great phone which served me well! But its battery is weak after 2 years. Was deciding between a 5x but opted for a 6p instead because of its better specs.

I'm coming from Nexus 5! I am an Indonesian btw, but studying at NTU for 4 years.That's how I got my Nexus 5 two years ago.
I'm in love with Nexus devices!

From nexus 6 to 6p.
I'm a nexus die hard fan

im the sixthman here!!!! whoohooo!!!
N5 jp to soon N6P sg set reporting!

Coming from the iPhone 6. iOS is getting too boring. Miss the daily flash of a new, experimental, unstable rom on my trusty G2.

Moving from OnePlus One. Slightly disappointed that Huawei isnt getting the 32GB version

Moving from Nexus 5 JP set to Nexus 6P U.S set. Not waiting for the SG version because I will be travelling early/mid Nov and would want the 6P to tag along for pictures.
The N5 is still running strong after 2 years. No sign of wearing down etc.
Very impressed with Nexus devices.

nexus users are diehard users.
Moving in from the First Nexus 5.

True that. But I am not using the 64GB of my OPO either. Still have 40+GB free. So 32 suita my needs.

I'm not that a big user of storage too. Using a n6 now with 2 roms.
No games and a few mp3 songs.
I still got 15gb free.
Whatever it is, maybe 64gb resale value is higher?
But then I don't sell my nexus.

Wish to get one. Roughly how much is it?

US pricing is well publicized, and since this is an official import to Singapore this time, pricing should not be far off.

It's not even submitted to ida yet. It'll be a long wait I guess

Samsung Galaxy S Blaze Q T699 ... The next great QWERTY slider phone?

EDIT: NEW NAME!
This device is now called the Galaxy S Relay 4G. See post #10
Just wanted to get a little discussion going for this device. It has potential to be the next(last?) great QWERTY slider phone. I couldn't find a forum for new phones, so my apologies if this is the wrong place.
Anyway, the talk right now is that this device is going to drop August 15th on T-Mobile USA. Rumored specs include:
~ 720p screen (more likely 800 x 480- see post #8 on this thread)
~ S3 or S4 dual core 1.5ghz processor
~ 1 GB RAM
~ 16 GB internal phone storage
~ Android 4.0
~ 5 megapixel camera
I'm praying the SOC really is S4, with that these stats could put it extremely high-end for a QWERTY slider phone.
Oh, and I forgot to mention: It's a 5-row keyboard.

What do you guys think? Anyone out there who, like me, salivate over the possibility of a true high-end QWERTY slider device?
Here's a link to the latest news article on it:
http://www.tmonews.com/2012/08/samsung-galaxy-s-blaze-q-press-shot-hints-at-release-date/
I might be interested if it has a removable battery and SD slot. That is making me lean away from HTC when my contract is up in a year unless they change from the One series designs. I haven't had a slider in a while, I have to feel it in my hand and see if the slide action is tight or loose and try to gauge how it might feel a year or two later.
Id love this phone. Always wanted a Captivate Glide but this blows its Tegra 2 out of the water.
Only problem is, with QWERTY sliders going out of the market, there is less and less development and support from the manufacturers.
For normal consumers, this isn't a problem. It has ICS (Captivate Glide will get ICS) but really, probably not many ROMs, Samsung will stop updates fairly quick, etc.
Sent from my MB508 using xda premium
it´s new? looks very nice.:good:
It's supposed to have 5 megapixel camera
I'd be cool with 5 megapixels if the other rumored specs are right... Now that I think about it, will this be the first QWERTY phone with a 720p screen?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
Thia phone would be cool especially if running bochs or ubuntu with the keyboard.

Well, I did a little calculation based on the dimensions of the phone listed in the FCC documentation (125mm x 65mm) as compared to the screen-to-bezel ratio in the press shot. Based on my calculation, the screen size is 4 inches. This pretty much debunks the screen being 1280 x 720 unless Samsung introduces a new kind of screen- the smallest 720p screen in a previous Samsung phone is the Galaxy Nexus at 4.65 inches. And ALL previous Samsung phones that had either a 4 or 4.3 inch screen were 800 x 480. I don't see Samsung debuting a new kind of screen for this phone
Damn. That's a big blow for me. I was really hoping for a better screen. And I gotta say, if there's no 720p screen, I bet the processor is S3 as well. Sadly, even with these specs this phone will be the best QWERTY slider on T-Mobile, so I'll probably still get it. But damn, I really had my hopes up for higher specs there for a minute
I suppose it's possible I made a mistake or am wrong about whether there would be a 4-inch 720p screen(there's still a user agent screenshot out there showing the T699's screen is 1280 x 720), but I doubt it. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
It's the 15th and no word yet on this phone.
No word on why the original release date was missed, but the name of the device has now "changed" to Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G. Kind of a lame name, but I'm still holding out hope for a decently-spec'd handset.
http://www.tmonews.com/2012/08/new-training-docs-correctly-identify-t-mobiles-newest-qwerty-device/
Also no word on a new release date yet, but it can't be more than a few weeks away ...
If this phone had the Wolfson DAC: I would've been interested. However I've yet to see a Snapdragon phone isn't a SoC so I'm not holding my breath there.
Thanks to some images found in the Q&A section of Samsung's website, we have confirmation that there's a FFC, the rear camera has a flash, and there's an LED notification light(not always a given with Samsung)!
... Okay, I know it's not much, but it's something, right? Damn it this phone needs some real confirmed specs already

Are you satisfied with your Z Ultra?

I'd really like to have one, but there are a couple of issues: The screen...if I bought a used one, for example, can I get the warranty honored? Secondly, the SOD: Has it been solved?

I'm very happy with my two (one as a incar GPS/test box). Good luck on warranty on a used one, Sony here in NZ didn't want to know for my second one (I brought it broken), although they are a gray import here.
The sleep of death was solved a long time ago on one of the 4.2 updates. There is 4.4.4 kicking around noe.
Yes, i am very satisfied with Z Ultra. Nope the chances for me to go back to small screen is very much gone... Unless no Z2 Ultra in the future.
But as of now, Z Ultra is really great. never got satisfied more than this. Battery Life might need to be better but 5 hour real time screen time average is very respectable for such screen size and power engine
Short answer: Yes. Very. I'll probably stick with it for another year (have had mine for around 10 months now).
horribly glitchy, unpredictable, can't depend on it, countless small little annoyances everywhere
but every android phone is like that... at least this one has a huge screen and is rather fast so yeah i guess

YES, I AM
Except when I'm learning now how to create a custom recovery...
And I don't understand anything, I locked back my bootloader... Still rooted on stock .108
I'm trying to create a website dedicated for this C6833
To avoid any confusion between the Z1 and our Z Ultra
(even if they are pretty close the same)
(I'm recreating a new account on XDA because I forgot my old one, and those 10 posts minimum gets me very angry)
I am very happy with my C6802 almost 11 months after getting it (bought it early August last year). It is still unsurpassed and despite about three weeks before root was possible (vRoot unfortunately), the arrival of GPe got things going.
It is the best phablet made to this date; I don't consider any other device close beside the Oppo Find 7. The only thing I am worried about is the lack of any successor rumor or even information about upcoming devices in the same category. The only competitors I know about right now is the Oppo N1 and Huawei Ascend Mate 2, both with weaker hardware.
My requirements for a new device is Snapdragon 810/815, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB internal storage, 6.5-7 inch screen, keyboard cover as an option, camera not important (have the QX10 for that), microSDXC slot and... either Google vanilla/Android Silver or CM-based. Sony implementation is OK.
I guess next year will bring those things to the table but it would be great with some decent phablets this fall since it would indicate that the segment is alive and well. Right now, the Ultra is in a class of its own and any other device means compromising on the core: a solution that is a true tablet replacement with great software.
Edit: The GPe ROM paired with Xposed Framework and optimized Dalvik libraries (compensating for the ART/Xposed issue) make the Ultra a completely superior phablet. I have tried the Note 3 (which is hyped as being such a great device) several times and it is far, far behind the Ultra in every aspect besides the camera. The best features of it such as multiwindow is available on the Ultra through Xposed and it works great.

[Poll] Will you buy the Note 7 when it goes on sale

Who and another did not preorder a Galaxy Note 7 ? Do you still consider buying Samsung’s latest phablet ? Samsung Galaxy S8 is nearly half a year away accrording to this report
Would you wait for the Galaxy S8 or S8 edge, or would you buy a non-Samsung smartphone this year instead?
I was all set to buy a Note 7 on release day in the UK. I didn't pre-order as my contract wasn't due for renewal until the day after release. Obviously it's now looking like late October/early November before they will be widely available.
At the moment I'm waiting to see what Google bring to the table with the Pixel XL before deciding. They launch that on 4th October.
S8 Edge is an option but despite the crazy rumours I suspect it will be little different to the S7.
Answer is yes; question is when.
Samsung Galaxy S8 display rumored to carry 4K resolution and support for VR.
yes if price reduced
surely i will buy it but price should be reduced to at least 30-40 %
yes, I want another one!
Do you guys know that Samsung Galaxy retains No.1 spot in brand value despite recall, a local brand research company said Monday.

It's the prettiest phone Samsung has ever made
It's one of the best smartphone cameras
It's the most stylus-friendly Android device
It has more bells and whistles than other flagships
It's better than the Galaxy S7
Yep... ive already gotten mine. Works great and have not had any issues whatsoever!

If it had a flat screen and front firing stereo speakers it would be perfect

Verizon and T-Mobile announced they are joining the other two major carriers in the United States to allow consumer to switch their Galaxy Note 7 phones with other devices.

Tab S3 vs S2. ( Development (ROM's) , Price and Life cycle)

Hi everyone I’m currently debating picking this device up. It seems this device so far has a lot less activity than the Galaxy S2. I’m curious if this is because of the price. I see the tab S2 can be had for about $300 these days and it has a lot of custom development. The Tab S3 on the other hand seems to be a newer device and we have TWRP and some ROM’s but I would hope when Samsung drops support for this device that lineageos or some other AOSP ROM’s would be out for this device. What are you guys opinions on getting the Tab S3 over the Tab S2. Do you thing development will pick up for the S3 in the future? I was really hesitant at first due to the Tab S3’s battery draining Wi-Fi bug but it seems Samsung may have remedied that in recent releases. And I really do like the S pen and that is one of my major motivators to get the S3 over the S2. I see Costco has a sale for the S3 for $470.00 (Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Wi-Fi Tablet - 32GB - Quad Core - Black - with $20 Google Play Credit)

Wifi bug is still very much present but at this point unless Google surprises us with a new Pixel tablet (which does not have it's own share of wifi bugs like the first one lol), there is no other option for a decent spec Android tab.Sucks.
All we really need is the Note 8 hardware on a larger screen, which samsung will release as the Tab S4 with a 10.5" screen next year (I wonder why ? ) , hopefully without any anymore bugs.

Yes I would wait but it seems that tablets have a longer lifecycle than 1 year and Samsung is more on a 1.5 year schedule.
If you want an android tablet now the tab s3 is the best in my opinion. Best and brightest screen, processor( for a tablet anyways) and comes with a spen. The wifi bug isn't that bad the tablet still gets great battery life. I set turn off wifi when screen is off in settings also. Try it for a while..if you don't like it return it.

got the phone since 1 week, ask me anything

Hi guys
If you have questions about the phone, just ask
I must say, this is one of the best phones I had. I'm really happy with it. My only criteria were:
- Stock Android
- 71-72mm max. width
- Good camera
- Bonus: DT2W and GCam Mods without rooting
It has all of it, in addition to an awesome display and build quality, and just fits perfect in one hand.
I tried Nokia 7 Plus before, but it was too big for me. My previous phones were: HTC U11 Life, Xiaomi Mi A1, OnePlus 3, Nexus 5, iPhone 6.

One question - does it have a LED notification light?
@iCstyle: thank you.
No it doesn't have LED notification, like every other Nokia phone.
do you have the possibility to test 4g+ ?
there is an option to hide notch?
thanks
I didn't yet see a 4G+ icon, but 4G works good, also VoLTE.
No option to hide a notch, it should come with Pie though. But Nacho Notch works pretty good.
Hi, thinking of buying this device is it worth it, I'm stuck on this or sammy A7 honor play around 300 Mark, what's future development looking likely etc bootloader unlock will eventually arrive? Thanks

How do you enable hdr10 playback in youtube app? I can only see normal quality settings with no hdr.
I want the steel 64gb version. I had the 6.1 for a day and my big problem with that phone was the bluetooth stuttered when connected to a Cardo Packtalk Bold. No issues with BT on my QC35 headphones though. The Cardo was a deal breaker though. I'll wait until a local shop gets one in and go play with the bluetooth with the helmet on my head. How has the battery life been? Got any camera samples?

Which GCam version are you using? And have you been able to find a case anywhere? I just received my US 7.1 and am happy with it so far.
I asked this on a different thread, but is the os 64 bit or 32 bit. Want to know for sure
