AND it has a headphone jack!! See Apple. You could have done that too. But NOOOOO... had to be Courageous. Yea, right. Had to be idiotic is more like it.
I agree - I got the 6S when it released and it was an worthwhile upgrade and I was impressed with a lot of the stuff they added. Now I'm on an 8Plus and that didn't really change anything outside of being faster.
It's coming with the Android Pie updates. So the S9 are Note 9 are getting it (or have already received it) with S8 model version coming soon as well.

had to pump up the stock price. because $29 dongles for everything werent going to cut it forever.
While I'm sure many people don't miss the headphone jack, I don't think I've ever met someone who wasn't inconvenienced by the lack of a jack at least one time for one reason or another. Personally I plan on buying a device with a headphone jack for my next smartphone.
Hm. I had the phone on work for a while and I was under the impression it was still called touchwiz but I stand corrected.
They’ve always posted tech news from other companies if it’s major. Nothing new here. Do you not want to see competition here or just want apple based stuff...
Last time Samsung used Touchwiz as the official name of their interface/UI for a flagship phone was the Galaxy S7 and Note 7 (remember this phone existed then ceased to exist, i will not say why becuz they enjoy saying it all the time on macrumors)........
Oh yeah. Love Apple products, but these days, other than their in house chipsets and Face ID, they’ve done nothing that innovative in years. Hardware wise I would say there are now many others on par and in Samsung’s case beyond in certain cases. Impressive new phones for sure.Screw Face ID. Well done Samsung. If it were not for the OS I’d be sooo done with iPhone.
I will say though 12GB of RAM is simply a sign of inefficiency and/or bragging rights. Sorry, but this thing can’t keep up with an iPad Pro with 4GB-6GB of RAM, and the A12 is still beyond anything in their phones.
Then, there is the software, the Achilles heel of Samsung. I will never migrate away from iOS as long as Android is Android.
so yeah, cheap carrier-subsidized junk.
[doublepost=1550701368][/doublepost]the funny thing is, if apple did an about face and put out an iPhone with 8GB RAM, all of your fanboys would be doing backflips talking about how Apple finally listened and its gonna be the best device they've ever made, it'll sell like gangbusters, yadda yadda yadda. and it will.
and then you will all come back posting about how you can't imagine an iPhone experience with anything less than 8GB RAM.
What freaks you out about it? I'm not sure it's good to be transmitting through humans...
No, when networks in the U.S. don't even have real 5G functioning; no need to buy a 5G device until 2021....everyone is better off with LTE for the time being.
Surely running Android is a plus. IMO it's a pity you can't run Android on the iPhone.
that's not quite true, I know verizon and tmobile have test 5G in a small handful of markets... if you're one of the lucky few and have the coin, it would be a nice upgrade.
Wait..... it supports super cool new bluetooth earbuds AAANNNDD it has a headphone jack?!?!?!?
What voodoo witchcraft it this?
Seriously, if it weren't for a still pretty good Apple ecosystem, or if these new Samsung phones ran iOS, I'd really consider switching....

Problem, if you travel alot ..few places will have 5G in my case..............i see widespread adoption 2021 and 2022
Do you promise not to flip flop your stance once iPhone gets it?
Plus, T-mobile 5G is on 600MHz so not much difference from LTE.
Wow these phones are very impressive. I don't like Android either but from the videos, I think Samsung's One UI does a good job of masking the garbage.
The S10E is everything the XR should have been... cut the corners on superfluous features. A 1080p AMOLED with two lenses and a smaller, still elegant design is exactly what the XR should be... not this huge, thick monstrosity with hideous colors and massive (I'm exaggerating) bezels.

Other than the tons of different Galaxy models out there, there have also been "mini" versions of most of the S series phones that were smaller and had lesser specs.
