That's like June or July?

I've done that in the past, waited thinking they have to add more crucial functionality or customization.

Truth is, they don't. Even if they offered 50% of the customisation android has, it will take them years to perfect it. You'll likely be waiting until iOS 18 before anything meaningful...

This might be a good one though since it does look like dark mode is finally arriving.

This may not seem amazing but from my recent usage I'm happy giving this as on 4G for most of today

Took off charge at 6am and 23.00 it still has 12% left

If my phone lasts me all day I will take that

Better than my max lasted on same usage

Well. Been about a week since I cancelled my preorder and went back to the iPhone XR. All I can say is this phone is boring as **** but it’s soooo good. If I had the S10 I’d be just tinkering with it and probably would have had 4 different themes already today. Moral of the story is I wish I could borrow an S10 for like 2/3 weeks and tinker until it’s out of my system. And then go back to my trusty iOS device.

I'm considering jumping on the AT&T deal for Galaxy Buds before it expires. I'd like to see more user feedback on them before doing so, particularly as it pertains to Bluetooth connection stability.

Well, I can tell you this much. I live in a building from 1915, and was able to walk from my bedroom into the other parts of my place including a hallway into another room about 15' away without issue.

As soon as I paired them there was a software update to "address connection issues".

I am back at my boring :D iPhone Xs Max and returned my S10 within the 14 days return window (for a full refund).

I truly loved the wide angle camera and build of the phone. Just couldn't live with the OS.

I would like to thank you all for the tips I have picked up in this topic while having my S10, and wish you all a lot of fun and joy with your S10 (Plus or S10e)!

Hmm... Something must be wrong.

Here's me over here with no desire to go back to my XR... And I thought I'd have been the first! o_O
Me too. My XS Max is sat beside my bed. I do keep firing it up for the odd password and the home screen just bores me. It almost feels sorry for itself, it has more of a vintage/retro feel.

Just ordered the Galaxy Active watch with free battery pack.
£50 off for purchasing the S10+
£70 trade in on the Gear S2 (Which was just sitting in a cupboard)
So £109 - Was crazy not too!

Lol we sound very similar (see my previous lost). My only regret is that I didn’t at least try the S10+ just because I’m going through a bit of “what if” right now but ultimately I always end up back on iOS. So cancelling the preorder basically saved me another trip to the post office.

Ha ha. You're really done with it:D
Even holding it the phone feels outdated and it feels wrong to even say that but it does it feels dated and behind when i switch the screen on

It's a great phone don't get me wrong just spolt I guess with what my device does with the S10 plus

It's a great prep up to when I get the note 10. Boy have I missed the S pen

Are you not keeping your Pixel?

The Note 10 is definitely something I’ll look at. I had the Note 8 for about a month after launch but my job at the time gave me a free iPhone so I switched to just that line. But the Note was actually really good for being a business professional. I was able to sign PDF’s on the road which was a huge plus.

Has anyone else had trouble sending emoji to iPhone users? When I send my wife an emoji, it comes through on her end as two question marks. When she sends me one, I get it just fine. When I send one through Hangouts, she gets is fine. Just not on her messages app. The conspiracy theorist in me is thinking Apple has blocked Samsung emoji.

Yeah I just tried that on my husband’s note 8. We usually use WhatsApp and emoji’s display on there but when I just tried to send myself an emoji via the messaging app it came up as ?? on my iPhone in iMessage.

Yep, that's the exact problem I'm having. I don't remember this being a problem in the past when I had my Note 9 and was not a problem with my Pixel just a few days ago.
