Hopefully they can.

If they can sort both that and the aggressive ram issue I'll be a happy camper.

I love the hardware aesthetics of my S6e, but these two issues really temper my enjoyment and put a strain on my everyday usage.

I know how you feel :confused:

I don't bother with Power Save mode unless I have to.

I'm researching wireless chargers. I predict once I get one for the office and home, I won't worry about battery life so much anymore.

To compensate for the small size and average battery life, one must take advantage of either wireless charging or quick charging or both. I think that's the only way.

I have the new Samsung QI wireless charger but it's sooo stinking slow. The only place I use it is on my night stand. I'm not sure if fast charging has ruined standard charging for me but I'd rather have multiple fast chargers laying around instead of wireless chargers.

Yeah luckily quick charging 2.0 chargers are pretty cheap in amazon. Very affordable for very fast charging.

I just worry about battery health. Isn't quick charing unhealthy for the battery over time?

I don't mind the wireless charger being slow because to me its meant to just be a top off, so to speak, while your phone is idle. Like I said before, it's just about putting that idle time to good use.

But ya quick charge is amazing. I'm always amazed at how quick I'm juiced up again and ready to go.

Would you happen to know if the sprint variant is fully compatible with att? It does seem like the model to buy. What about T-Mobile compatibility for that matter too?
Interested in knowing as well. T-mobile you can, thats why even before people got the unlocked S5 T version to use on AT&T since that version had the locked bootloader. I thought I remember that you could use a Sprint phone on AT&T network (as well as a Verizon phone) but you would lose AT&T LTE, but it would work with hspa+.
