  1. Not sure about Xbox 360 controller, but a Xbox One controller should work with any Windows device.
  2. S8 should be more than good enough, if you have to have a big phone, Note 8. (Only if you're willing to pay that much)
  3. Did it used to work before? Might be a issue regarding sensitivity. Go into Help and Options > Settings > and bring sensitivity back up. If this doesn't work, contact Microsoft.
  4. What happened before it slowed down? Any drops? What did you install?
  5. This phone seems like its made for people who are prone to dropping phones. Aside from durability, the specs are pretty mediocre. 720p display, gorilla glass 3, and 16GB storage (which is pretty small compared to other phones that have at least 32GB standard). On their site they also advertise "waterproof" for this phone, but its still IP68, so technically they just cover water damage. Also, pretty sure any phone can be easily hackable, and this isn't any better. Software update wise, all non-google made android phones have late updates. No LTE? Then this phone is outdated, and its also slow compared to actual flagship specs.
  6. Probably the one with the biggest battery, Razer Phone. The thing is, many things are sacrificed for that battery, especially the headphone jack. By the way, Razer Phone is 5.7 inches, and not 18:9, so it might be a bit too big.
  7. Apple watch series 3 right? You sure you're willing to give that up for an Android phone? If yes, then there's tons of options. S8 would be a great choice, if you're willing to accept the fact that its going to be outdated in a couple of months. It all depends on your budget and what you need in a phone. Camera = Pixel 2 or 2XL Display = S8/S8+ or Note 8 Audio (speaker quality) = Razer Phone Durability = just get a rugged case with any phone Budget = Oneplus 5T All phones have pros and cons, it's what features that you want/need that makes a perfect phone.
  8. Try Teamviewer. Have it installed both on your PC and mobile, and make an account for it. Then have your PC on all times, and you should be able to remote control it from anywhere. Note: No remote-control apps will be as close to actually using your PC
  9. Lol, me too, but eventually, when a newer generation comes out, you won't have the newest thing. Whatever you might have might seem like the best and newest, but becomes outdated very quickly. Personally, I'd just spend less to get last year's phone, so I don't feel sad when it becomes outdated, because it already is outdated. $20-$50? That must be a typo lol.
  10. First of all, its very unlikely that Razer phone 2 will be released early, especially around april. So unless you're willing to wait until september-november ish, you can't get either of them. Honestly, it's really hard to decide since none of the major flagships have been even announced yet. I'd just suggest to wait a couple months and then see from there. If you want a phone now, S8 would be a good choice. Not because it's going to become cheaper, but its a good phone overall, since I doubt you need a giant display on the Note 8. (Aside from the fingerprint scanner placement, you should be fine). There's really no need to get the latest phone nowadays, since phones from last year are already more than good.
  11. No, I'm not kidding. Taking it to the repair shop should be the first thought anyone should have if its hardware related, but I guess people here can help the best they could. EDIT: Actually, getting PC's fixed isn't cheap, so I guess it is a good idea to ask the internet first, since it is free.
  12. Take it to the repair shop? The only help we can give you is what can be done to fix it, and I wouldn't recommend self-repair unless you have experience.
  13. Tablet and phone in one device. That's what ZTE is trying to replicate, but it's a rushed design since they didn't actually combine the displays. This is what they're trying to replicate:
  14. So? Phones have had wireless charging, water resistance, and OLED for years. Personally, I prefer the usual fingerprint scanner. There's really nothing much to brag about the iPhone X.
  15. Eh..I don't really think it's worth it, since the repair happened months ago. Not worth the hassle. Besides, I thought of buying a SSD a while back, since I wanted a performance boost. Warranty expired in 2015. Yep, I'm probably gonna get a SSD once my the crashes are too frequent.
  16. Thanks, but I've already decided to get a SSD instead.
  17. Thanks for the fast responses, I guess I'll get a SSD and make this laptop last longer. The thing is, I already got the original hard drive replaced by a third party repair shop, and even so, I'm pretty sure my warranty has ended by now.
  18. Hi, I currently own a Dell Inspiron 5447. The only major problem is that the hard drive is somewhat broken, and it crashes randomly sometimes. Since this laptop is a couple years old, I'm thinking of getting a new laptop, but don't want to spend too much. I'm also thinking of just getting a SSD instead, and hope it will fix the problem and even make my laptop better. Should I get a SSD or a entirely new laptop instead? If new laptop, any suggestions?
  19. Samsung does not honor the warranty after any accidental damage is caused, so you're out of luck.
  20. Honestly, no. It's literally two smartphone screens combined together. I wouldn't actually consider it to be a bendable phone, since there are no screen components that bend. Unless you like to share your phone screen, or need that extra screen, I wouldn't recommend it. I'd wait for a "true" bendable phone, that has no bezel.
  21. There are some USB C to HDMI adapters on amazon, if that's what you're looking for, such as this one. https://www.amazon.com/CableCreation-Thunderbolt-compatible-MacBook-Chromebook/dp/B06XDMKQKJ/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1514687744&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=USB+C+to+HDMI&psc=1
  22. No offense, but personally, I think smartwatches are still in its early stages. A smartwatch has no special features that your phone usually can't do. Personally, the only reason I'd get a smartwatch is for fitness or for an heart rate sensor if your phone doesn't have one. LTE will significantly drain more battery than ones without LTE. If your bluetooth is always on, it will drain battery, and most likely more if you use multiple bluetooth devices simultaneously. So, basically, wait until smartwatches have matured more, much more than they are now. Save your money.
  23. As far as I know, as long as you use the cable and adapter that was included in the original S8 box, you should be able to get the fastest charging time. Samsung mainly supports its own Adaptive Fast charging, and not much else. So there's no need to get a third party cable/adapter. I highly recommend you only use Samsung cables and adapters, and nothing else.
