What say the tech board? I currently own a s7 and I am looking to upgrade. I have owned iphones up till 2017, when I decided to forage in the unknown garden of android. s7 has been a good phone. Photo/video has been great. Apps are fairly stable, still dislike a couple of things like the fingerprint reader, and battery life has gotten really bad. Plus it has seemed to have slowed severely lately (planned obsolescence??). Anyways what are y'alls thoughts? Should I wait for the new iphone or just get the s10? Or is the newest one so badass I need it now? For your time, I have included a pic of a babe

Still got 6 months before the 2019 iPhone is released and it won't be called XS Max. Depends on how long you want to wait and if you are happy with Android.

S10 lineup is fantastic. Really depends on how much you like One UI vs IOS.

In considering replacing my OnePlus 6T with a Galaxy S10e. If you're still running on the Galaxy S7 and mostly happy you should look at the S10e. It's the best value of the Galaxy S10E lineup.

I went from S7 Edge to S10+ and it was awesome.

Everything stock is better and on par with other options. I was hardcore Textra/Nova Launcher user and I use neither on the S10+. Installed, but not in use. The phone is fantastic. A few little complaints, but I'd stick with Android over iPhones any day of the week.

If you have other Apple devices, it might make sense.

Any day of the week? How about when you meet a girl at a bar on a Friday night and first text comes in green? Then she thinks you po' and ignores. So maybe not any day?

If a girl thinks you are poor because you don't use iMessage then she is probably too dumb to find your dick to put it in her mouth anyway.....so no real loss.

Clevon disagrees, dumb and sex go together like peanut butter and jelly.

To me it's all personal preference on what ecosystem or what OS you feel most comfortable in. FGlagship phones are almost all really good with few flaws so to me it just comes down to ecosystem/user OS preference.

I've been android since I got my Note 3. Came from a iPhone 4s back then. Since then I got a S7 Edge and now a S9+. I have literally no other apple devices and like android user experience so there's literally no reason for me to get an iphone. My wife on the other hand has a macbook pro, ipad, airpods, apple tvs, etc...heavily invested in Apple's ecosystem and she's always had iPhones (currently on the X). When I try and use her phone I get frustrated and vice versa, because we arent used to either interface.

She likes her X (her call quality doesnt seem to be as good as mine, and she cant be talking on the phone and use data to look something up, only big drawbacks she's had), I love my S9+. We're on Sprint. We effectively pay about $30 a month for our plan plus phones because our companies reimburse/give us an allowance so that's why we got flagship phones.

Honestly, mid-range phones have gotten SO GOOD in the android space if it wasn't basically free for me to keep a flagship Samsung I would easily go out and buy something like an Essential Phone, Pocophone F1, Oneplus 6T or Honor phone. Save the several hundred bucks for a pretty damn similar experience.

The 1 thing that's hard for me to give up from Samsung phones - Samsung pay. Because unlike android or apple pay, it works with MST technology so I can literally use on any magnetic strip reader card scanner, dont even need NFC.

Last Android was a Samsung S7 and it was great at first and slowly got slower and slower. Went back to an Iphone after 5 years of off an Iphone and using Android.

Life is now simple, easy, slick, and modern on the Iphone XS Max.

Then you definitely want to steer clear of the S10 or S10+. The on-display fingerprint sensor has some mixed reviews.

The S10e doesn't have one and instead chose to put their sensor on the side. By all accounts, it works flawlessly.

They're all over YouTube. People claim that removing the factory film protector helps. Personally, I wouldn't remove it.
