Looking at the Anandtech review, it's got worse battery life then the Nexus 5 and the battery life on that phone was laughable. A powerful phone and it looks good, but the battery life killed it for me.

I've got an original iPod video that I used for years and it looks nothing like that, my HTC One looks nothing like that either. Quit storing your poo poo in your pocket with your keys, or using it to sharpen your cat's claws or whatever caused that. Having said that super polished aluminium wasn't the best choice, mostly because of people like you tho.

SIR FAT JONY IVES posted:My N5 camera crashes on the latest build all the time. I've tried to replicate it manually but can't figure out what is causing it. Do you have data turned off? My 5.1 stock N6 camera was crashing and needing a reboot every second photo while in the US in airplane mode (I'm Canadian) then as soon as I got back to Canada it worked fine again. Never had that problem with the Google Camera on my Note 3. It seemed to be trying to back up everything to google+ and making GBS threads itself when it couldn't. Mogomra posted:Fine.

CLAM DOWN posted:Big phones goddamn own you tiny handed nerds. When I had a flip phone I used to be able to text with it still in my pocket. With my 5 I can do most things with a single hand. If I switched to the 6 that would change. A bigger screen adds no additional utility and hinders usability. No one has said why a bigger phone is better, just that it is. I suspect anime is involved but can't you accomplish the same thing by holding the phone closer? I want a new Nexus 4

butt dickus posted:I'm 6'3" and wear XL gloves. The 6 is too big. What size is your TV? Do you shake your head in disbelief when others have bigger TVs than you? I can't stand anime but love youtube and youtube looks and sound great on an N6. But I mainly use it for web browsing, which is also better on a big screen. There's basically no reason to not have a big phone as far as I'm concerned. I can do a lot of functions one handed, but if I can't, I don't care. The thing I don't get is why people who like big phones can accept that others like small phones, but not vice versa. Why is there so much resistance to the idea that different people have different preferences?

Why is there so much resistance to the idea that different people have different preferences? This is a completely untrue statement and is demonstrated as untrue on this very page. It just feels true to you because you like big phones. I don't think there's anyone who literally cannot understand that people use phones differently and come in different sizes. People just perceive some slight to their preferred choice in phone sizes and so have to reply with their preference with some small slight to the other choice, and then you get this thread.

Well one side goes on and on about it while the other side makes tongue in cheek retorts (like my "get a bigger head" thing which is obviously not serious) so it seems pretty one sided to me.

Why is there so much resistance to the idea that different people have different preferences? It's about what's built. That's why. There are tons of options for high end large phones. If you want a small phone, you can count the number of options on one hand after having an industrial accident that took half your fingers.

But a lot of things are built for small people, e.g. I can't walk into a store and buy shoes that fit me in my own country, but I don't insult people who happily buy shoes that fit their feet. "I'm not going to buy shoes and I don't care what idiot shoes you guys get. It just seems more and more likely that when it's time for new shoes I'm going to have to choose between midget sized shoes or ugly shoes that are out of style, and those are all lovely options." You sound like a petulant baby is the point.

Couple reviews out there for the Zenfone 2 as of today. Reviews are positive for the most part, some knocks on battery life but looking pretty solid for the price. Phone posting so I don't have links, but GSM Arena and I believe Android Authority have full reviews up now. Edit: Still no US release date

I've been having a weird problem with Hangouts since switching to a Moto X. Sometimes, when I click on the notification for a new message, it takes me to that conversation, but WAY back in time...like, two weeks ago, and I have to scroll way the gently caress down to the actual new message. Anyone else have this problem? It's not every time, maybe half the time...and only when going to the conversation via the notification. If I click on the Hangouts icon, it will always load up the last message in the conversation.
