agree.

wait and see what happens in the next few months. Samsung have their S8 line up coming out in Feb

The icons should be sorted by going to settings > display >display size. For vibrate go in to settings > alert slider.

Rumour has it we find out the battery was the cause for the Note7 issues tomorrow.

I read it was them not giving enough space around the battery for it to breathe, which was why when they recalled it and changed battery supplier it still happened? Either way it's Samsung's fault and if they try and blame a battery company they'll go down in my estimation. Own your mess.

I've no idea what you lot are talking are talking about with the small icons. I got the update and nothing has changed aesthetically.

Cheers.

Not a fan of them changing the volume setting like that. I much preferred just being able to turn the volume down to off, rather than having to use the three way slider, now. Not that I ever used the old priority only mode, but I'm sure some people must have, so it seems odd to get rid of it.

I thought it was Sunday, but might be wrong. Should be interesting either way.

Has anyone had problems with Bluetooth headphones on the 3T? I have to unpair my Soundlink 35 headphones each time I want to use them as there's no sound when I switch them on again.

Don't have one, but it is the tablet to get under £200. Just got Nougat too.

Android tablets seemed pretty sparse last year. We wanted to get a new Sony one for my dad since he's a Sony fanboy, but their last tablet released in 2014 or 2015.
I'm hoping there's a few better releases this year.

I got this just before Xmas. I had owned the phone for 18 months so thought I was stuffed but when I checked the site I had bought it from (mobiles.co.uk) it actually had a 24 month warranty.

So I called LG and they sent a courier to pick it up. Took a couple of weeks and I got a replacement.

Unfortunately I have just cracked the screen on my new one but the phone still works fine. I'll be looking to upgrade to S8 or LG G6 in the next couple of months.

Mine done it after about 10 months of owning but LG were very good in getting it sorted the only annoying issue was that I've had to buy a new phone so I've a pretty good condition LG G4 for sale.

Finally got my S7 back. Having had to go back to using the m8 for a little while has made me appreciate how big of an upgrade the S7 is, such a better phone.

Do you still need a wifi internet connection to use those screen casting dongles? I've got an old Galaxy S5 that I want to use as media / Kodi player but I'm not sure which chinese dongle to buy.
