OT: Some thoughts on HTC M10.

I am also tracking what's going on HTC's side. I will buy whichever is better. Looking at all leaks and information, I am thinking HTC is kind of making a very Samsung-like product. Just check this list:

- front hardware button like Samsung.

- capacitive buttons

- finger print scanner on home button

- AMOLED

Most likely battery capacity and SDcard options are also same. Also same 820 SOC. So many thing are common, difference will be who can make camera better, which I am sure Samsung will do best. AMOLED display, if HTC uses won't be as efficient as Samsung use in latest S7. We shall find out in few days which one is better.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] hella356:
I've used nothing but Samsung since breaking my old HD2, but this potential Samsungization could sway me back to HTC. AMOLED & hardware buttons have been major reasons for sticking with Samsung. We'll see what happens...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dandroid13:
Are you sure about the hardware buttons? Because the One A9 has the touch biometric sensor but uses those horrendous softkeys.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CLARiiON:
I meant hardware Home button. HTC normally used on-screen buttons. I guess M10 will be almost similar to A9 in terms of design/button layout.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dandroid13:
So it'll look like an iPhone lol. I've read that they're increasing the screen size to 5.2", like the Xperia Z line. Considering the bezel you need for the biometric sensor it's going to be a tall device.

BTW, here it says the button is capacitive, not HW like Samsung.

if they insist about touchwiz..... it will be dissappointment
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CLARiiON:
^^ what does that even mean?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] AKW:
No it won't. Touchwiz is fine. Have you used a Note 5?

[MENTION=5215360]CLARiiON[/MENTION] very nice. I haven't seen those yet. It's gonna be tough to pick between gold and black if I do decide to jump to the s7. Still a toss-up between that and the M10.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] gezgin__:
Currently I'm using note 5 and yes touchwiz is ****
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CLARiiON:
There are more chances of going on a date with scarlett johansson than Samsung ditching TW. Why do you guys keep repeating the same thing like a broken record?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] AKW:
I look at it this way:

Out of the box, Touchwiz is a wild mustang. It's powerful (comes on a phone with arguably the best processor in the game), but it doesn't act how you want it to act (can't customize it at all). You can barely even ride it (on account of the lag). But, if you learn how to tame the beast (debloating, xposed, custom launcher/ROM/Kernel/Theme), you can harness all that power (killer features like multi-window, spen, edge screen) to use how you see fit without issues at all, like I have.

Whether or not this is how it should be out of the box is definitely something you could argue, but to me the benefits are worth it if you can counteract the negatives, which is very possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] gezgin__:
Yes man i know how to kill bloatware and root the device but i simply dont want void my warranty

as you said before its a beast but its a stupid beast :D im struggling really big lag issues with note 5 which must not be in a device like this. Anyway its about choices Note 5 is my first and last samsung :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] AKW:
That's fair, although there are things you can do to help without root, it is ultimately about choice.

I wish you better luck with your next phone, my friend.

They are, but not as much as a custom launcher, and certainly not as much as a custom ROM or kernel.

Something I found, Exynos 8890 benchmark. Looks nice, hah!?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] gezgin__:
simply WTF !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ari25:
Woah what a score! Little off topic.. What do you guys consider the most accurate benchmark that represents the device cpu and gpu?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CLARiiON:
No straight answer. I work on measuring benchmark/device performance in my job (enterprise data center devices, not mobile) and I know that not all benchmarks are relevant in each situation. Not all device also will do best for every situation, it's a matter of finding which numbers to look at , and which numbers are not-so-important.

In simple terms, you could use Geekbench for CPU. Now don't go comparing Geekbench across multiple flatforms even though they claim it's multi-platform. Important to look into sub-scores as well. You can check for GFXbench for GPU, also like 3DMark is also quite popular since a long time. 3DMark is also not a strictly GPU benchmark as well. PCMark is a system wide benchmark tool rather than a CPU-only benchmark. I don't at all like Javascript tests, which are pointless as they depend on how efficient your browser works rather than CPU capabilities. I don't give any importance to AnTuTu at all.

Just my 0.02
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ari25:
Also I guess the most common cpu intensive task seems to be Web page rendering... I still love my s4 as it is quite adequate on the cpu side but it's gpu is proving to be the bottleneck.. Manufacturers need to focus more on the gpu now I guess.. Also the audio output via headphone jack

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dandroid13:
Custom launchers suck because you can't use the stock widgets with them. So if you want to use widgets you have to install new ones, which take space, may consume more data and leak your details. The other part of customization I'm slowly moving away, I'm a former Nexus user and I may not even root my S7 when I get it.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] AKW:
I guess it depends on which widgets you want to use. The only stock widget I use is Smart Manager and I can put it on my Nova Launcher homescreen. I can also use the Stock clock widget as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kilroy672:
I wonder when T-Mobile will start their pre-order?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CLARiiON:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kilroy672:
I really have to think about this. I really enjoy my Note 4. And will miss my S-Pen if I go the S7 or S7 Edge route. Plus it must have the sd card slot they have been talking about for a few weeks now.

Hmm I'm unimpressed with the design, it's an s6.1, not an s7 if you ask me. No USB-C is a disappointment and I'm reading touchwiz hasnt been improved since the s6. Skipping this one for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Blzfrost:
Neutral

So far the only things that I found of interest is the microSD and waterproofing. Unless the specs are big enough I'm getting the free upgrade to the s6+ or checking out some of the other new phone. I've survived on a s3 for this long. This just doesn't seem like it'll be worth the money when there's so many worthy upgrade options from my perspective.

I read on this other forum http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/htc-p4450-kaiser/89014-htc-p4450-release-rumor-thread-4.html in this thread they say that it will be released in like November. They say that the person mention this did not say who his source was it still worried me cuz that is the month the 8525 was released. Additionally they mention the 8925 will not have the front facing camera nor will it have built in GPS!!!

I personally will probably boycott AT&T if this is true or at least petition this BS. I mean seriously I love my 8525 but I am getting sick and tired of at&t stripping features out of the damn devices. I am wondering if any of these claims have any value or are they just more incoherent gibberish from the internet.

Any thoughts?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Shadowmite:
I would entirely believe they could strip out those features. The front facing camera is useless in the usa as we have no infrastructure to use it. The GPS now, that's the sticky subject. Yes, they could release it and have one of the first devices ever in the usa to support built in standalone gps... But they have a service they sell at $10 or $15 a month to do the same thing. Releasing this phone would take away "revenue" as far as their bean counters will be concerned. It doesn't matter how many of those people would or would not pay for it, it's just a matter of potential revenue to them.

What will happen? That's still up in the air, but rest easy knowing it's still easy enough to get a import if need be!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] warwickwebb:
No GPS?

I don't care if they leave out the front camera. But if AT&T is dumb enough to disable the GPS, I'm buying an unlocked Kaiser, period. I hate it when companies cripple perfectly good technology. It's not even like they would be getting revenue from GPS if they crippled it - they'd just be preventing us from using free GPS.....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] swtaltima:
In regard to the lack of support for the front facing camera I thought they were planning on do the whole video share thing? I even found the option for video share on the wm6 beta I put on my girlfriends blackjack. In regard to the bean counters and potential loss of revenue? As far as I know the gps module does not determine who one will use for navigation. I currently have a gps chip through at&t however the same one is available elsewhere. Furthermore, telenav is offered to other carriers as well. The only way I can see this taking money away from them is it came with not only the chip but the software (maps) as well. If it does not come with maps I will still most likely stay with telenav through at&t.
