First of all the main reason that I reacted was that I have the impression you are saying this is the perfect phone. It starts whit your title 'The One to rule them all'. I agree it is a great piece of hardware for an acceptable price.

Yes you did mention that overexposure issue (did I ?), but you also said just like other phones (The phone tends to overexpose a little bit like all other phones). I never had a smartphone (iPhone 3G, iPhone4, Sony Xperia ZL, HTC One M8 and the Samsung S6 Edge) and none had the overexposure issue. So somewhere I found you where hiding this minus by saying that others have it to, that is not my experience and I wanted to inform potential buyers that read your review that some people have other thoughts about it.

If you did use HDR you will have less problems because the dynamic range is much bigger. I did test the camera without HQ and HDR, so that I also had the RAW files. I tend to say that the RAW files are even more over exposed.

I believe you that upload has ruined you photos, but since I have also the OP3, I now it has those grain and other artifacts probably due to to much compression.

It depends what you want to do with the photos. Post them on social media, maybe after cropping, and yes more and more persons have 4K monitors, and when graphical cards become fast enough and cheap enough more and more gamers will settle with 4K monitors. And yes then they will visit social media on it to.

But that was not the intention of my reaction. I also look at those 4K monitors the photos taken with the Samsung S6 Edge, and I do not have the same sad experience because they are sharper and cleaner. So I just wanted to say that with the help of my 4K monitors I can clearly see that the image quality is far behind the one of the Samsung S6. And so I do not find it fair to say to potential buyers that it in the upper part of the spectrum within the likes of the LG G5, HTC 10 and the iPhone 6s, beating some phones like the Galaxy S7.

But I can believe you when you say it is a relief when coming from the HTC One M9. I had previous the HTC One M8, a lot of people where also enthusiastic about the picture quality. It as as good as Samsung, iPhone, .... I was also disappointed when I saw those camera pictures, especially in low light. So when afterwards I had the Samsung, then I was really surprised in the positive sense. So yes i'm surprised you don't like the photos from the S7.

And of course I don't expect you do some drop tests. But as this is a review, and potential buyers are reading it, i felt that I have to share this bad experience to.

And to be honest I should mention that from the other people that had the same bad experience they are also not satisfied with the way support is handling there requests.

But again, great piece of hardware, for that kind of money, if they only had a more robust display I would keep it instead of my Samsung Galaxy S6. I would help myself with RAW files, and would had hoped the fixed it with a software update.

Hope you have more luck with the phone :good:
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostafa Wael:
[MENTION=5347471]dmeerpa[/MENTION] well I guess I will draw more attention to your crisis of the overexposure and, with the part of the upper spectrum thing, I meant that it is comparable to those phones. Not better, but not that behind for regular Jacks and Joes eh? For sure the phone will have more grainy shots than the S6 (1.12 micron vs 1.2 micron for the OnePlus 3 and the Galaxy S6 respectively) and for sure the bigger pixel will get more light and will be better, but still it is a solid performer in my eyes. The M9 for instance was a damn POS when hanging out with the friends at night, the OnePlus 3 manages to get some nice shots - decent enough for me to look at the pic, unlike the M9 - so, it is decent enough. Not for those who monitor the pics on 4K displays and can be quite "meh-ing" for those people.

BTW, Galaxy S6 is still better in my eyes than the S7. I really saw that over sharpening, it loses some details. I still believe that the S6 has more beautiful shots (says a friend of mine who had both)

Do you think my camera part deserves an overall redo? I mean, if I drawn more attention to the overexposure issue and the grainy shots in extreme low light, would it be sufficient ?

Btw, for this phone, I have two perspectives

1- comparing the phone with other phones in the same price range (man that phone raises the bar too high and it feels unfair for me :D )

2- comparing the phone with its respectable category/tier. This is a flagship phone so it shall face some of the top dogs as they say in some areas.

3- reviewing the phone as a whole package and does it satisfy me in my day-to-day usage or do I feel the need for something better, which is what most of the people look at. I may not recognise the issue with the photos of it being a bit grainy and may be quite meh when looking at the photos on the 4K displays as I personally do not own a one myself, but it has never been a catch for most of the internet citizens as far as I saw. I am not saying that your opinion is negligible, make no mistake absolutely, but...for the mean time, viewing photos on 4K displays is not that major, no?

About that issue of support, well of course I had no issues obliging me to ship my phone to the online support, but there has been an xda article in the portal that has discussed the way the technical support manage the faulty shipped units, perhaps I should link to that in my review.

Please let me know if there is anything misleading in your opinion. Thanks for the thorough walkthrough of my review, definitely appreciated :)

[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salvadorfreeman:
Hello

I have a K3 note, version K50-t3s, running Android 5.1

I'm planning to flash it to Android 6 (haven't decided which ROM. I was thinkig of Ghost, but if anyone has any recommendations, let me know). It currently works with 4G FDD with both SIM slots, and I need to keep this function.

I read on a French forum that you need to change the IMEI after flashing so that it will work on 4G, but I haven't found any explanation of why that should be.

So, do you really need to change the IMEI, and if so, why?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tushit:
As i m using note 4 as daily driver for almost for 2 yr didn't ride on the note 5 trip earlier instead of wish to a have perfect note 7 !!!

I don't mean note 7 as a medicore device but being a poweruser of note series we deserve best chipset rather than 6 months old snapdragon 820 rather than 821 and more faster exynose and 6gb ram......and i m not particularly big fan of 4:3 ratio picture produced by 12 megapixel s7 camera.....aprart from this usb-c ,waterproofing ,hdr display(less talked in almost every reviews but a milestone upgrade) are definitely welcome change......and very bold ergonomic design note 7 also praise worthy.........let's discuss:)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Nothing to discuss about it really here in this place as this is for Note 4. I like the phone, more or less, whatever much you can like a glass built phone, nice compact device, IP68 and all. 4:3 is a poor thing indeed. USB C is the biggest hype I have ever seen! Will get it when price cools down. The main factor will be the laggy TouchWiz UI, don't know whether Samsung has made it better in Note 7 or not, but I could never like it as it is on Note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcm99087:
I agree... with the note 4 set to get note 7 rom and having removable battery not compelling to upgrade.. (charge time on note 7 not exciting, wish it had QC 3.0 we could have seen significant drop in charging time but they stuck to QC 2.0 similar to note 4)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Turkawa:
Note 4 is juuust fine for me with note7 rom or CM13.. still cant decide :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikesaa309:
Wouldn't mind the note 7 tbf love the design of it and have wanted the camera from the S6 since it came out as in the UI with the manual focus control. Have used the camera on my brothers S7 and it is fantastic quality and far more manual control over it too. I didn't go for note 5 because for one it's not available here in the UK and second it doesn't have a micro SD card slot but the note 7 seems to be an excellent phone only downside being the lack of a removable battery and for me personally have never taken advantage of that with the note 4 except when I need to hard shutdown the device.

Also not bothered by not having 6gb of RAM or the latest CPU like how much RAM do you need in a phone seriously? Even 4gb is a slight overkill and also how fast do you want a phone to be? Most phones from 3-4 years ago will open apps under 2 seconds if that so even if newer phones opens apps in half a second how much faster do you want phones to be until they're fast enough? Even if phones get powerful enough to run next gen console games and if they had at least 1TB of storage I can't imagine playing games like gta 5 etc on a touch screen very easily like even Gta SA is bad to play on a smartphone.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkGuyver:
I may consider getting a Note 7 as I'm having problems getting a Gear VR Innovator Edition for my N910C. I also like the new iris scanner in the Note 7.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePrick:
I am, definitely.

I have a Note 4 coupled with a 10ah Zerolemon with a custom kernel to circumvent to static fuel gauge. Rooted, 64gb SD, extended battery, S-pen. It's perfect.

I was really disappointed with the Note 5 having neither an SD slot nor a removable battery. The Note 7 alleviates this issue by reintroducing the SD slot, but still leaves a lot to be desired. Namely, reconciliation with Samsung's relentless refusal for proper documentation (for (stable) rooting), and a removable battery. I think I'll be fine without a removable SD card, but battery is essential.

Let's just think of all the scenarios where a removable battery would be extremely convenient:

Camping, hiking, traveling. It's very convenient to swap batteries, to not need a charger, or finding a plug/socket, or avoiding the dreadfully slow wait when using a portable charger/battery pack.

Additionally, when faced with technical difficulties, it can be necessary to remove the battery, which Note users beyond the Note 4 cannot do(easily).

Not only that, but if you want to keep the device for more than 2 years, you'd need to replace the dilapidated battery (remember that LiPo batteries have a fixed number of cycles), or, perhaps, need an extended battery for when even with the more efficient panel and SoC, the device is still does not last for as long as you'd want. Essentially, the Note 7 is a media consumption device. One cannot consume media or sustain a productive activity on the Note 7 with a relatively mediocre battery .

Even without root, for which there are workarounds, or the introduction of features that no longer require root (such as adblocking, blocking access to particular sets of APIs, etc.), I'd be willing to buy a Note device, given it has a removable battery. I'm voting NO with my money, as far as I'm concerned. In all honesty, it seems that I'll probably get an LG Stylo at some point, once my Note 4 dies some years down the road.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SOCRATE_MMXII:
Non-removable battery made me keep Note4 and not buy Note5. I will skip Note7. Probably Note 8 will have a removable battery again, so I will wait until then.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cacingbesar:

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
I bought a 2nd hand SM-G920F. It was rooted and I really prefer an unrooted device to get the OTA. Anyhow, I went to unroot the device and it didn't go so well. It bombed right at the very end of the odin step. So I ran it again with the same rom. No luck. Right now I have a fairly expensive paperweight. I can get it to boot into recovery and download modes. I have TWRP installed on the damn thing, but the touchscreen isn't working. I can move files around with adb and fastboot, but I can't really get it do anything. I keep getting the waiting for devices thingy. It appears as if there's no OS on the phone right now, just a file structure that I can manipilate thru an adb shell. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been using Remix OS v3 on my Pixel C for the past two hours but there are two major annoyances that I have found, otherwise this would be perfect for me.

1. Please allow different launchers, or at the very least make it so that you can customize some things of launcher 3, I absolutely HATE it when all of my apps are added to my homesceen and it looks like there is no way to remove them since when I long press them the only option I see is uninstall.

2. When an app first opens, it opens in a small window. I would imagine that most people that would be using this on a tablet would be using one app at a time, occasionally using two or three apps, and I find it annoying to have to constantly maximize the windows.

Other than those two, I absolutely love it and will be sticking with it for the near future.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] eyesofice:
So what do you think are we still gonna be stuck with a locked bootloader?

Straight Talk is my carrier and I have the ATT note 4. The coverage is amazing since it is a ATT phone and runs off the ATT towers.

I talked to straight talk today and they said I could get a T-Mobile Note 7 and it would run off the T-Mobile towers.

When I went to Canada last moth my AT&T Note 4 got me from Rochester NY to Toronto with no issues what so ever.

I feel like I will have to decided if I want to keep the better coverage on the AT&T towers and have no root option based on the locked bootloader or go with the T-Mobile to have a unlocked bootloader with crappie tower coverage.

What do you thing guys? Also what date is the release of the Note 7 with 6gb of RAM?

Thanks,

Shawna
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] spexwood:
Note 7 won't have 6GB Ram. That was a rumor, unfortunately. The Note 7 will have 4GB Ram, which is still quite a bit for a phone.

I'm thinking that the Note 7 will have a locked bootloader on ATT. There may be a way to bypass it though like the S6 and S7. The Note 4 was locked down extremely tight, but ATT also had a contract to supply Note 4's to US government workers, so it had to be extremely secure. AFAIK, the Note 7 doesn't have any such contract associated with it, so locked bootloader or not, we may at least be able to bypass it. It may not happen right away though.

All this is my personal, non-professional speculation.

I originally got an ATT Note4, but quickly switched to a TMO Note4 as soon as they got root. I paid to have the TMO Note4 unlocked and use my ATT sim in it. My hope is...worst case scenario I can do the same thing with the Note7. I get great ATT reception from the TMO phone since they were both designed to work on the same frequencies.

Galaxy Note 7 variant with 6GB RAM/128GB storage confirmed for China

Official confirmation from Samsung that puts an end to all those rumors you have been hearing about a new top-end variant of the just-launched Galaxy Note 7. The head of Samsung Mobile, Koh Dong-jin, has confirmed that a Galaxy Note 7 variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of on-board storage does exist. Don’t get your hopes up too high just yet though, because that variant will be China-specific and is unlikely to see daylight in other markets.

Hey all,

I have had this problem sometimes in WM5, but now it seems to happen all the time in WM6. If I set an alarm (doesnt matter if all 3 are set, or 1 is set for 1 day..i have tried all the combos - used to work perfectly with all 3 set before.)

so...If i set the alarm...it won't go off until I hit power on the phone, and then 2 seconds later my alarm goes off. That doesnt help me when I have to wake up at 8 AM, and finally wake up at 9 , power on my phone, and get an alarm for 8 AM 1 hour later. Does anyone seem to know what the issue might be or how to correct it?

I have htc plus! installed , htc tweak, and vista dialer. I think the first thing ill try to do would be get rid of plus. Let me know if you have any ideas.

thanks!

Happened again this morning. As soon as i turned the phone on, i went into pocket mechanic and saw that the cpu was at 100%, so maybe thats why its not setting the alarm off. I need to download a program that shows processes and cpu cycles now. but i seem to think its my email...when i do check messages it goes up to 100%....odd right!
