My phone is also my Walkman, so having control over that is nice.
But the really cool mod was the projector screen. The picture was amazing, and the ability to show your videos on the wall is great in so many situations. Sure, you need a dark room, flat wall and some sort of speaker option, but there are so many scenarios where it would come in handy. Quote:

If you're looking at the Moto Z, then you probably already know this but they pioneered the exclusion of the headphone jack. Motorola/Lenovo are actually the ones with "courage" - not Apple! :P

had to chance to visit the HQ of lenovo in the states and had a chance to play with the moto phones. attachments are great. the speaker attachment had nice bass tones coming out and sounded like you had regular speakers. Camera attachment was great also. I liked how those attachment have their own built-in battery so it doesn't drain the phone battery.

that trade-in deal looks like it's back but says select devices only.

Swapped over to the Fido network last Sunday and Friday morning/evening and this morning, my data hasn't been working. Works and stops working. Everytime I've had to restart my phone to get it to work again, which makes no sense as I had no issues when I was on the Bell network.
I've done some google research and it appears others with S7 edge having issues on Rogers/Fido network where their network just drops completely. It's not the phone because others have sent in their phones for repair thinking its the phone, but it appears to be compatibility with the network from what I have read online. My other friends are using iphones and with Fido, no issues.
Been kinda choked because if I say I needed to make a call or need to use my phone and something like this is happening....I'm starting to have second thoughts on whether to switch back.
I've checked my APN settings and they are all correct, so I don't know what else more I can do from my end.

I've had 2x s7 edge on Rogers. Neither of them have ever given me any problems whatsoever? Did you call fix to see if they can reset your network connection on their end?

I really don't know what is up anymore. I don't live in a basement with windows all around, so I don't see how my place has reception restrictions. I guess I'll have to play along and see how things go now  | |

Well, still having issues with S7 Edge connecting to Fido network. Have to restart my phone everyday to get LTE. Only reason I am still with this useless carrier is because I am paying $25 less per month than with my previous carrier. Rather annoying to restart my phone to get connection and I don't know when the happens until I check my phone to see no connection....
Looks like this is a huge problem : Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Connectivity Issues - Page 21 - Fido | |

Looks like this is a huge problem : Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Connectivity Issues - Page 21 - Fido | I have no issue at all. I mean I do lose the LTE connection and connected 4g in place that's bad IE washroom in metrotown. other than that I am good most of the time.

It is a slippery phone, for sure.
I ended up buying a bunch of cases for my new S7 Edge.
I have an Otterbox 
Ghostek 
a folding walletcase 
And the one I'm using today, which is the Unicorn Beetle case, my personal favorite. 
With the slippery nature of the phone, and the huge cost of replacing the screen I won't go without a case anymore.
The Otter is awesome. Protective as hell, and tough as nails. But it's big and bulky. How can I wear my skinny jeans to show off my sexy leg muscles, with this massive phone bulging out like a rectangular tumor?
The wallet case is nice, as I use it for formal nights. I don't like how the cards rub against the glass though. Over time, that will leave a mark.
The Ghostek is garbage.
For me, I like the Unicorn Beetle. It's easy to access the phone, and easy to remove from the case if you choose to. Plus it's protective.
One final note, plastic screen savers don't stick to this screen. For every one who says they had good luck, I know of 3 who have since peeled off their screen savers. The heavy glass ones will stick better, but you have to press the screen harder to make it work. I don't recommend those, as they're really not necessary with a good case.

This is the case i have on mine and i love it. The kickstand on it ended up breaking but I glued it in place, it doesn't move anymore but it looks better than a hole in the case.

But the beetle is not a bad case at all. It has a good balance between mobility and protection. I'm a case whore apparently, so the UAG might go on order later today. | |
