in my opinion, the 3 year old iphone design lags behind every galaxy design since the S7. S6 was too uncomfortable to hold

And then the pixel came and stole the 3 year old design... (Here comes the flamewar lol)

to be honest

 

I am using S5 Neo. I wish it got a fingerprint scanner. Good camera, good battery. Decen performance (does lag a bit but it's so minor)

nice, my S7 has the crappiest sensor every

Samsung needs to completely drop their edge bullshit.  It's hugely uncomfortable in the hand and impossible to not accidentally tap the edge with your palm or fingers.  And bonus: you can't put a screen protector on it so your phone will look like trash in 12 months.

 

Also it's a useless gimmick that makes colors shift at the edges anyways.  What is that?  Triple useless shit?

Nokia 3310, extremely durable. No flex, long battery life. Extremely drop resistance, water proof of up to 8000m over few days. Runs Snake Xenzia at native resolution at decent frame rate. 

I used to love my 3310, only replaced it because I dropped it on the farm, found it about 6 months later little rust on the board dried out and the thing still bloody worked...like shit but 'worked' lcd was a little wierd after that

iPhone SE? also I am a middle school kid with tiny hands and I can use the S7 fine

Tried it, pos, not like my hand is that big, but your telling me you can cradle a 5+" smartphone in one hand and use your thumb to navigate everything comfortably? Somehow anatomically I find that hard to believe.

i must agree. Basically, they stole the iphone design and made the bezels even thicker with an ugly window on the back

not really, most people dont have a problem with it. there are many edge screen protectors

Perfect phone? The leaked Pixel XL gen2 design -- that glass redesign & front firing speakers? Nice.

 

Daily driver? Pixel XL gen 1; the speakers are the only major complaint I even have with the Pixel XL Gen1.

Well maybe their marketing team thought that it would seem like their was more power packed behind more bezel to the average iPhone using Starbucks consuming teenage girl...

ok but iphones and most good androids have 2 day battery with normal use

 

I get maybe a day and a half off of the iPhone and the OnePlus One's battery is screwy (it wasn't new when I got it and the previous owner was really rough with the usage. One of them "facebook all day, farmville all night" girls).

With minimal battery saving (turning off shit) I get as much as 4-4.5 days on the 640/1320 and if I managed to get almost a week's worth of battery on a Lumia 520 (which I still need to fix at some point, since it was a pretty freakin' nice phone)

I find easy and comfortable to be slightly different things. Given one is purely subjective and what I'm looking for.

k, the S6 was really bad because of the sharp edge on the back but the curved back on the s7 makes it way easier and more comfortable to hold

I just realized it's a tool if you're stranded on an island... Sure there's the glass screen but just use the window on the back as an sos signal and give the plane somewhere to land on...

That glass back was awful.  Set it down on anything with even a .0001 degree incline and it's going to end up on the floor with double the chance of crackage.
