I have no direct experience with Airpods or Powerbeats but they will work with Android phones but you will not get some of the specific pairing niceties you get when used with an Iphone

Exactly
No point especially when you consider how super expensive they are
[doublepost=1557764462][/doublepost]How do you back up your Samsung phone. I am new to android and obviously with apple it was simply through iCloud.
Is it the same with the Samsung phones?
Agreed no significant advantage and costly
Yes same functionality and the secure (safe storage) is backed up separate too
Samsung have their own cloud storage- you get 15GB for free and you can back up your phone in the same way you back up your iPhone.
Any battery saving tips to do when I get the phone, like things you recommend to turn off etc...?
The subreddit galaxys10 is a good place to start. They have a pinned post with tons of info.
You wanna hear something crazy? I'm thinking about coming back. I really miss Android. The Apple Watch is telling me not to do it but the Galaxy keeps calling my name. Plus it's been really awful trying to sell it where I know the iPhone will sell and still has its value.
I could but would rather get my money back on one of them. And probably blow it on Milwaukee Bucks tickets. Ha!
I’ve held on to my iPhone for the time being but I genuinely think it’s out of familiarity rather than thinking it is the better phone of the two. Think I just need to sell it and get rid to make a clean break.
I just received my S10 plus today and it didn't come with plastic film around it like iPhones do. The S10 Plus just came with a black sticker sealing the box and that's it.
Is this right or has mine been used?

Can’t say for sure but mine came with the plastic on it. So I would definitely wonder
I have just looked on YouTube with some of the unboxing and all of the videos I watched did not come with any plastic around the box. Strange that.
Oh crap. I’m sorry. Lack of sleep. I missed that you said that it was around the box. I thought you meant surround the phone. You’re all good then
Haha thats fine
Just found it weird that the box did not have any plastic film around it, just a black sticker that seals the box.
Now that I've come back to the dark side, I'm curious if you all are using:
- Galaxy Watch
- Galaxy Watch Active
- Other
- No Watch
I haven't decided if I want to keep my Galaxy Watch or get rid of it and just go no watch. AOD kind of helps because I can always see what time it is. Just kind of thinking of the overall picture and if I really need a watch or not. I can still easily load RunKeeper on my phone and run with the phone. While leaving the Apple Watch is tough, I've also started to question if I truly NEED a watch.

I might return the S10+
I haven't opened it yet but I got it on a contract with Vodafone and a lot of people said I am paying too much.
£48.75 a month for the S10+ with 50gb data, unlimited texts and mins plus free Spotify Premium for 2 years. I am thinking this is too high

Any upfront phone cost? If not, that’s not too bad compared to most of the other major network deals

I’m considering the Apple Watch 46mm. I had the s3 frontier a while back and I really like the Samsung Watch.
£39 up front for the phone. Funny enough thats with 25% discount included. Apparently that plan is £65
That’s a good deal. Spotify alone is worth £240 over the 2 years!
