[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Nitemare3219:
A few things I find interesting here.

1. In a lot of camera comparisons, the 6P is better than the Note7 for typical night shooting. Reason being, the larger pixels, but more importantly, Google's multi-exposure combining HDR+. The Note7 will usually be a brighter picture, but it is typically very muddy and noisy compared to the 6P with HDR+. That said, the Note7 is more capable due to full manual control, and certainly with a tripod it will beat the 6P. In bright daylight shots as well, the 6P can handle exposing the entire shot properly whereas Samsung will have to give or take somewhere (either highlights or shadows) because their HDR sucks compared to Google's.

2. My 6P rarely gets close to 4 hours SOT. It's pitiful, and I have no idea why. Rooted, Nougat, no bloaty apps or anything... but I run the phone in full force with all services enabled. I used to be a battery life scavenger and would turn damn near everything off - but then what is the point in having a smartphone? A power source is always nearby. There is no need for this, but even when I did try disabling a lot of stuff on the 6P, it rarely went over 4 hours. I've only had the Note for 1 full day so far, and it got a little over 4 hours SOT with all the same settings... so it is a bit better, but could be a lot better if Samsung would fix some of their background nonsense.

3. Use Package Disabler Pro. Yes, it's $1.49, but worth it.

4. I have HATED Samsung for this ever since they introduced fingerprint scanners. It's an unnecessary extra step that REALLY makes a difference. I hate unlocking my Samsung phones. I love unlocking the 6P. With that said, the Note7 fingerprint scanner does seem a little faster than the S7E was, but interestingly the scanner is also SMALLER than the S7E by a tiny margin... which will probably make it miss more often. Samsung, your physical home button needs to go as well - that thing is an annoying piece of **** - make your button capacitive like the HTC 10. The iris scanner is DAMN faster if you're in the right spot, but having to press a button AND swipe the screen is STUPID.

5. I shoot for more storage than I ever need. I have a 128GB 6P, but barely use 40GB. I have a 128GB Pro+ microSD in the Note7 (had it from my S7 Edge which lacked 64GB of internal), so I really have plenty of storage now. But the thing is, it helps prevent bogging down a "drive" - e.g. listening to music and skipping through tracks, while also running something in the background. If your music is saved to SD, and the background task is working on the internal UFS, they won't interfere with each other. Additionally, the Note7 has UFS which is much faster, and USB 3.0+ for fast file transfers. And having plenty of free storage guarantees the fastest read/write speed possible. If you max your storage out, it will slow down significantly.

6. I have the same car charger. I've only used it once for about 20 minutes, but didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. I'm using the 6P charging cable right now with it, but I'm going to be switching back to an old Anker QC 2.0 USB A charger to use with their PowerLine+ USB A to C cable anyway. But the Tronsmart is a highly rated charger that has been used by people with the G5 and HTC 10 - I wouldn't really worry about it.

7. I can't say I notice this either. The 6P would noticeably slow down when warm though. Speaking of speed, I'll come back to that.

My biggest COMPLAINT about the Note7 is that the 6P is faster in everyday usage, especially browsing in Chrome. This is bull****. Samsung, your new powerhouse phone shouldn't be slower than last year's hardware. I have a decent amount of random Samsung **** disabled with Package Disabler Pro, but it never fixes the issue. I just don't understand it.
