HI guys,
Is any coming from the s6? I currently have it and though I love the phone I that this lag it develops from time to time, I believe it was due to the poor ram management.. I was going to get the note 5 or edge plus but can not justify the price especially since lg has that promotion for the memory card and battery.
Thanks

I had the S6 and Note5. Get the V10. Battery life is better. No slow downs over time. No RAM management issues.
I came from the S6 Edge Plus, which I felt was the smoothest phone I ever used. The V10 is right up there. I don't play games, so I can't comment on that. The one thing I also noticed when compared to my old G4 is that the V10 does not get hot at all. On my G4, it would randomly just start heating up. Sometimes even when i'm not using it and I just feel it head up in my pocket.
After a week of review these few comments have been the most helpful. I will be picking up the V10 today.
Wish the old and cream variety was available on tmobile instead of the all black
I don't like the S6, bought it for my Fiancé, she hates it. Terrible lag, less than desirable battery life. Should have kept her Note 3.

Picking it up tomorrow. I forgot tmobile closes at 8pm.. sigh.
This lag is killing me! I am done with Samsung devices.
I came from the s6 and I'm very pleased so far. Marshmallow should help on battery life.
What's wrong with battery life?
You probably aren't the power user my Fiancé is
But seriously, they exchanged her phone on Wednesday because the lag was unbearable. I tried everything to fix it, and they did at the store as well. I think she had a bad phone, but her battery was draining fast, as in 6 hours maybe 8 on a good day.

Root it and go check out the memory management thread in the T-Mobile general section. We made pretty good progress.
If she has issues again, I'll convince her...i think.

I had the Galaxy S 6 since April. I love the bigger screen on my V10, battery life is better and having that extra gig of RAM definitely makes things snappier. Memory management seems to be a lot better. I also like that I don't need to put the V10 in a case. S6 was too slick and fragile.
Picked up the v10. Love it so far. Thanks for the input guys
@brazcub definitely be careful without the case. I don't know if you read, but 2 people have dropped there phones on xda, screens cracked. Maybe a QC issue at LG, but something to be aware of regardless.

I have seen the phone screen cracking threads here and I ordered a spigen case and a tempered glass screen protector.
I need a case and protector since I use my phone at the gym.
I believe it is the spigen ultra hybrid case. It's pretty thin but still protective.

Yes, memory management speaking this thing rocks better than the Rolling Bones. I've had 40+ apps open, no noticeable slowdown. Battery drain, yes, but that's why Samsung did the memory killing that they did in the S6 and other galaxy phones. Although yes, you edit the build.prop script with a rooted phone it gets much faster.
That being said, V10 is in the same level as Note5, Nexus6p, etc. And not just because of size. Its a different beast.
However it is weaker in terms of CPU and GPU specs, but you probably won't notice.
I'm loving it myself, I had the note 4 then the note 5. Best decision I've made yet(except wasting my first 2 jumps on lemons). I can say without hesitation that this is one of the best phones I've used in a year. Hopefully we get marshmallow and and maybe some LG UX alterations and I'll be good for a while

Just like everyone else here I am absolutely loving my note. Hands down the best phone I've had yet. But I was wondering if anyone is curious about the Xperia Z. Watched a few videos, visited the site and just went through the specs. It might not be all around as great as the note 2, but its going to be a close competitor. With the 13 mp camera I am positive I'll be using my upgrade in October to get one, assuming Verizon offers it.

No not really, its a sweet lookin phone but the Note 2 is a beast. Also I thought it wasn't coming to Verizon? And I'm hoping the Moto X kills every phone when it finally hits, rumored to be sold on the play store with a low non contract price, killer specs and to be the first real Moto/Google phone since Google bought them and unlockable. I believe this will be my next phone.

As the OP pointed out, it felt like a downgrade. The S4s screen is pretty nice but I found it ate through the battery pretty quick when it was on. The S4 dropped to 3g in places my Note would hold 4g. The S4 didn't seem as smooth as the Note with a rom on it. It just didn't feel worth the money.

The screen wasnt that big of a differnce. There was a lot of lag everywhere, from the camera to making a call and all that smart stuff wasnt what i thought. There was a few flaws, but everybody feels different about things. U have 14 days to return it..just make sure u go to the corporate store,if not u have to pay an $80 restocking fee. I was pissed, but I got the phone for $177 after the rebate..

I'm in a similar situation. I picked up the S4 Thursday, played with it for a day, and hated it. The camera was laggy (0.5-1 second shutter lag), the UI and apps themselves were laggy, it felt like I downgraded because of the smaller screen and the battery life was a lot worse. I went back to my Note 2 for the weekend and thought about returning the S4.
Then last night I decided to give the S4 another shot. I did a factory reset, installed my apps again (except I only installed what I REALLY used, which is about 60 apps), rooted, and froze/uninstalled a TON of apps and processes using Titanium Backup. After customizing it even more it's been much better in terms of performance and battery life. The screen is amazing on the S4, it's much brighter, whiter, no jagged edges on text (MBP > MBP Retina), easily viewable in sunlight, etc.
I thought back to when I first got my Note 2 and realized that the S4 is still brand new, when the Note 2 was new it was also laggy and full of bloatware. The S4 is only going to get better as OTA updates come out to fix these few minor issues, and once devs start to build solid ROM's it's going to be just as reliable as my Note 2 is on Beans 17.
I enjoy having a phone that I can actually fully use in one hand, fit in my pocket without being uncomfortable while sitting, and more importantly actually be able to fit it in cupholders!

LMAO .. right haha
But the note 2 wasn't laggy even with Verizon bloat and a ton of apps. I used it for a while stock, non rooted and it was just ask fact as it is on a custom Rom. I really feel like the snapdragon CPU's are just inferior to exynos. Plus it never gets hot.

Ok so I'm thinking of switching from my S4 to the DNA. I have a few questions, also I'm rooted on the s4.
1) how is the storage on the DNA, with root, like holding roms and the back ups?
2) can you view emojis on Facebook and instagram without root or do you have to be running a ROM?
3) what kinda photo modes are there? S4 has burst, sport, and a lot more
4) how's the battery life?

DNA gets a tad more space to us with root battery life is great with uv and oc depending if you know how far the phone can go.
My biggest complain was the colors were not as good compared to other phones but now with the crpalalmer and baeups kernals have it so it looks great. Now if you are a flashaholic there's not as much as Samsung but the good thing is that there are a lot more roms then when I got the phone 6 months ago

1.) Storage is so-so. If you can stream most of your music and stuff you'll be fine. I was carrying around alot of music and stuff on my phone and that just wasn't cutting it. So you need to be selective about what you keep stored on the phone. The phone will work with USB-OTG cables though so keep that in mind.
2.) I'm not sure about the emojis.
3.) The phone has burst with best shot. It'll just pick out the best shot out of the burst of pictures. The burst feature is also extremely fast. Much faster then my Sony digital camera.
4.) Battery life is excellent. Expect 3 hours of screen life. If you use 3 hours of screen life as soon as you pull it off the charger it's gonna die. If you use 3 hours of screen life over the course of 18 hours it'll die then.
5.) The biggest complaint initially was that we didn't have s-off/root for the DNA when I first came over. Now that we do and we have many roms to choose from it's not that big of a deal. The phone is really awesome and well worth it. I wouldn't say it's an upgrade from the S4 but I think it can trade blows with the S4. As mentioned above the colors with the new kernels are much better and the screen is just magnificent. The only other complaint I have about the DNA is that it isn't the One.
Thanks guys. I'm still debating on it. I've always loved HTC. I've had the inc1, inc2, rezound so I'm thinking I'd like to have this one too. Just wish it had a 32gb edition.
And the emojis are the little android characters like smilies.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
Have the s4 also but definitely prefer using my DNA. For me storage isn't a problem. With the DNA I get a anywhere from 3.5 to a little more than 4 hours screen on time with the s4 easily 6 hours. Biggest complaint? Just wished HTC had gone a bit bigger on the battery but that still doesn't stop me from choosing to use it over the s4. The feel of this beauty in hand just craps on the s4.

I think the thing I like best about the DNA vs. the S4 is the fully unlockable bootloader. The S4 does not have this. There is the bootloader bypass method, but no true unlock. And Samsungs latest kernels block root on a kernel level, so I could see development on the non-GPE S4 drying up all of a sudden.
I also like the fact that the DNA is fully gsm unlocked.
Thanks guys. I'm really considering it. I was messing with my old rezound and it made me miss HTC. I'm stuck between trading for a DNA or waiting for Verizon to drop the HTC one.

Honestly the dna is an incredible device but it is not the one. If I were you I would go for the newer one then the dna (boom sound, 4.7 instead of 5 inch screen, and it's freaking made of metal) if you choose the dna it will not disappoint by any means though.

Thats what i am thinking about doing what do you guys think?
It seems like there are a few concerns. first a slightly smaller screen.... But i might be ok with that. i have a nexus 7 LTE if i want a bigger screen.
No sd card.... its a concern but i never use that much space anyways.
None removable battery. Maybe my biggest issue. as i have a 6400 and a 9300 batter for my note 2. I dont use them all the time but they are nice to have.
My biggest reason to get a new phone is the better camara. i have a 19 month old at home and my favorite thing to do is take pictures. The cpu upgrade would be sweet also.
*EDIT*
if this patch locked the bootloader i am leaving verizon
This question may have been asked already but I made the exact change and I could not be happier. Don't get me wrong I loved the Note 2 and was waiting for the 3 and then this phone came out. It basically has similar internals except for the ram, removable battery and sd slot. All of which are for personal preference.
As far as real life this phone easily makes the day for me. To me the camera is great. It is already rooted. With the verizon coupon I got it for $140 over the Internet. You really can't go wrong. Just my 2 cents.

Ex-Note 2 and HTC One user here. Got the G2 and couldn't be happier. The only reason you should stick with the Note 2 (or get the Note 3) is if you use the stylus a lot.

It's 4:13PM right now...I streamed about 3 hours worth of music using LTE through Google Play to my bluetooth headphones, studied my PDF textbook for about 30 minutes, and did about 30 minutes of web browsing and my G2 is only down to 84%.

Pretty much this. Note 3 if you want the S-Pen or the Ultra if you want the "waterproofness" (funny looking word, but it is indeed a word ) and build quality.
Build quality is better on xzu battery isn't bad. But no flash. And not sure if note 3 has ir blaster but xzu doesn't which is annoying.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
I just sold my Note 3 to get the Ultra last week. For indoor use, the Note 3 camera kinda sucks. Battery life is so-so, only lasts about a day. Build quality on Note 3 feels cheap compared to Ultra. I was never in love with Note 3, it's really just the same old plastic Samsung phone with Touchwiz.
If you have 2 hours, you can see the videos from Erica Griffin. She goes into everyday usage of both phones. In the end she moved from the Ultra to the Note 3. Here are the links:

Well considering her size...even the Note 3 could feel way big huge for her.

It's her preferences ofc, plus if you look at her impression about xzu, it is clear that she likes xzu as her daily driver before going with note 3. And plus who doesn't love a new more expensive gadget hey? yeah the note 3 experience is a bit more complete (sans the real estate of the screen that xzu offered which she like the most about xzu) but that doesn't mean that xzu is a loser compared to note 3, no, far from it. It's just that they were built for different speciality.

I would change my Ultra for the next ultra and nothing else. Every time I see a Note 3 or someone holding it I can't seem to figure out if it's really a Note 3 or a Note 2 or a GS4. It just seems the same phone with some new tweaks is all.
Don't misunderstand me, I had a GS3 and loved it, and last year you could spot a GS3 right away, people here had an iPhone, or a GS3.
With the Ultra you stand out from the crowd, and not only for the sheer size, but also for everything else.
Somebody might mock you for the lack of flash or for the impossibility of changing batteries, but deep down you see most people love it and envy your big toy.
But, more importantly, it's a fantastic beast, it doesn't do anything slowly, it simply works and the stock ROM is the most beautiful I've ever tried.
My 2 cents.

No, they are completely useless. They didn't do anything actually.

One tip though. Call them when they're working on it. My service center has anew online log of what they've done, and I also knew which day they were going to work on it, but I didn't call them to say that they had to swap the display, so I'm blaming myself a little. Don't trust them to actually do what they are supposed to do.

No that's what I'll do in morning now. I always phone ask how it's all going in case they say there not sorting much I'll kick off. I really hope on the xz1u or xzu2 however it gets called there is better camera with flash and ir blaster. I would completely love the xzu if it did. Bit my mind keeps straying still.

If you have 2 hours, you can see the videos from Erica Griffin. She goes into everyday usage of both phones. In the end she moved from the Ultra to the Note 3. Here are the links:

@romano Man first of all you are no offence crazy note 3 don't even stand near ultra it's like you are comparing a rolls to a ford ......ford could fool you with some add function's but rolls is rolls.....
@paulotex Oh god Erica do you see her hand's an iphone is bigger for those if you give her an iphone and a nokia 1100 she will jump nokia to fit her size ....... she just foolin around.........
im a very sporty person, what made me get the note is when during the summer i will be jogging alot and riding my bike.. i figured this wouldn't be possible so i got the note 3. However if someone here can convince me that can happen without a problem i may be switching over because i love large screens =)
I've had both and I prefer the xperia ultra. I watch a lot of media on my phone so I went with the bigger screen. Not a fan if touchwiz either having the gpe ROM for the ultra was another reason. The only thing is don't expect to take it to the gym or anything.

Well, I skate a lot as I play hockey and I got a tiny LG Thrill 3D phone (just wanted a $ 50 cheapo) for the Ice Rink because the Ultra is too big but to be honest, even the Note 2 was hard to deal with when skating because I was compromising my crossovers etc since I had the phone in my front pocket.
But is I was jogging or on a bike, I would think it is easier to manage as you got more places where to keep it without thinking that if you slip like on the ice you can destroy it.
Not sure man but I would go back to Xperia in my very biased opinion
