1. I feel like there are ALOT more apps to choose from in iOS and they are better optimized compared to android.
2. I love being able to text back from my lock screen. been using that feature ALOT
3. 3D touch is great, thought it was gimmicky at first, but its been pretty useful.
4. Apple music is a Godsend, I also like that I can look up the lyrics to the song im currently listening to right there in the app.
5. being able to jump back and forth between apps was quick
6. Liking being able to use iMessage and Facetime
7. the stereo speakers are awesome
8. PLENTY of cases and accessories to choose from stores and online.
9. I like the home button
10. this is the most responsive fingerprint reader i've ever used on a phone.
11. Siri is pretty useful for me.
- I miss my s pen from my note
- I feel like the note had better battery management features.
- I want a headphone jack
- Fast charging was great , i was able to charge my note from 0-100 in about an hour and fifteen minutes
- expandable storage. I have a 256 GB SD card thats pretty much useless to me now since the iphone doesnt have expandable storage. I do have the 128 GB model and 200 GBs of cloud storage though.
- being able to change the look of app icons, and the theme of my phone through samsung essentials really helped me make my phone seem different and stand out compared to other phones.
- that QHD screen was stunning. 1080P is fine, but I defintely see the difference in quality.
Being as unbiased as possible here. Even after my gripes, I am VERY happy with my 7 Plus. if the recall never happened, would I still have my note? yeah, no questions asked. the note 7 was my phone of the year. but things happened obviously . the 7 plus is a great phone and im content with the switch. there was no other phone i wanted besides the 7 plus after i turned my note in.
[doublepost=1477808093][/doublepost]side note...been looking into macbooks. i see the new one just came out. im completely turned off by only having the usb type c ports. Im probably going to get an older model. which one should I get? I'd mainly use it for web browsing, watching videos on youtube, hulu and netflix and some light gaming like league of legends.
Nobody misses the Always On Display?
It's such a simple feature that I miss, because I always used it. Though Raise To Wake helps a lot, you still have to pick up your phone.

Yeah I heard it was a hot phone....

Nope I don't miss that at all. Matter a fact right after I got the s7 I turned it off. That junk thing burned enough battery up by itself more less with the screen on all the time.
Im more of a fan of the LED notification in the top corner of the phone as opposed to always on. It kills battery. Always on display is still pretty cool .
Oh and one more thing I miss from my note: WIRELESS CHARGING. yes I know with the metal design of the iPhone, you can't wirelessly charge it. I still miss that feature though
