Samsung's Galaxy Note7 is the best smartphone on the planet, period
Mashable ^ | August 16th, 2016 | Raymond Wong

iPhone fans are not going to like hearing this, but Samsung's Galaxy Note7 (yes, there's no space) is the best smartphone money can buy right now.

I don't make that statement lightly. I've been a devout iPhone user who has owned four iPhones as his main everyday-carry phone for the last six years.

Against all odds, Samsung has made the most impressive smartphone ever created.

For me it’s invaluable. But I love to sketch and draw my ideas out. I love taking notes quickly with a pen. So for me, having a stylus is awesome.

That’s why it’s nice to have a variety of phones with different options. If I want a stylus, I can get a Note7. If I want the same phone without the stylus - get an S7.

Where did you get the LG Stylo 2? I checked the Verizon Wireless site and saw only 4 LGs available, but nothing designated as a “stylo.” We’re switching all four phones on our family plan and want to know all the options before making the move.

This will be my first ‘smartphone’ as I have clung to my ‘militarized’ convoy flip phone for six years now, going to be hard to part with it, but it is time.

Don’t hate on me. I have Sprint, but I work for Verizon.

Let me do some checking for you.

Resolution is the same as 5.1” S7 in a 5.7” screen. Ridiculous. Why didn’t they improve that?

Since you mentioned Apple, shouldn’t this be in the Religion Forum?

IPhone 6 seems like 5 years old next to the Galaxy 7 series. Inferior in every way. Must be depressing to be an Apple FanBoy these days.

Well, it’s still over 500 pixels per inch! It packs over 2.5 times the pixels of the iPhone 6 Plus - a massive resolution increase, don’t know if they needed to add more for the bigger screen.

THE OBAMA PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Both of his fathers and all of his relatives are mozlums.

Hussein Obama was never baptized.

Hussein is an Arabic name which is the diminutive of Hassan, meaning good, handsome or beautiful.

Do not leave your Samsung 6 phone on the dash in the sun on a hot day. You will bake it. It turned off automatically to protect it, about an hour later it did recover.

Lesson learned.

Well that’s because Samsung did the right thing. Even though there are only 35 confirmed cases out of 2.5 million (around 0.0014%) they recalled them all. And those other 2,499,965 are still the best smartphone on the planet period.

Now, if it was Apple we’d hear how it’s the customer’s fault, they’re not using right, it’s such a small percentage that it’s not an issue, etc.

The way Samsung handles such situations is the way a manufacturer SHOULD do it.

The way Apple handles such situations is the way a money-grubbing shifty company tries to do it.
