Announce June 12th and first units ship end of June. I got my S8s in today. Still surprised how tiny these feel. BOGO free with a year of free netflix and 2 sd cards and 2 cases is too good to pass up. I've now owned both the S8 and S8+ The bigger definitely feels better to type on.

It's way better in China. Really great. I prefer Google Maps day to day and Apple Maps isn't quite there yet. But when Apple Maps does have good data, I prefer it. Looks a heck of a lot nicer, too.
I'm going to buy a Xiaomi Qicycle today.
hope its more than just a spec bump and better camera.
these prototype designs are kinda dull lol.
oh, maybe the mode slider... actually works this time?
oh is google maps accurate in china even though its not allowed there? What are you doing there anyways lol. work? family? vacation?

Not sure if it's accurate. Just speaking about my travel experiences with Google Maps. I'm just here in China hanging out. I hate doing business in China because everyone lies to you, all the time, flat out and no matter what. It's tiring. But hanging out in China is fun!

More color plz
Edit: There's a red Xperia XZ Premium coming. Probably Japan only:
June 20th here

Why would they need astroturfers when they make products that everyone wants, are timeless, but people don't feel good enough about themselves to be able to actually own them?
But they're convenient as hell and that's why they're so popular.

It's why I hate it when my girlfriend tries to give me directions with Apple Maps (which she thinks is Google maps, but I keep telling her that Google maps doesn't suck that much).
Just the other day it tried to have us take a left on a right turn only road and it was constantly changing the route ETA and rerouting.
And they are secure enough for average use.

Kinda want to jump to the next OP even though my pixel is fine... definitely paying off the pixel contract though cause I cba paying every month anymore and I've loads to pay out already since my dog got sick.
Mi max 2 seems legit.

That battery and screen. Think I'll pick one up when I go back to China.

It's no interest so paying off now vs later is the same?

Well atm I'm paying £30 a month for it but I'm getting my yearly bonus from work soon so figured buying out the contract and getting a cheaper SIM only would be a better thing to do in the long run tbh money is just tight atm really and I feel paying this off would make it a bit easier.
That'll likely cost you more trying to break it early, unless you're on O2 refresh which I think you can.

Do we, or are they just privy to the glory that is the Sony smartphone experience?
Are they though? I've almost never seen anyone in my area have a Sony phone.

Probably somewhere where people aren't appreciative of technological advancements.
Knew a ton of people with the Z3 and Z3 Compact because it was the battery king. Knew a couple with a Z4's and Z5's based on that residual reputation. After that, nothing.
I take strong offense to that accusation. Just because I champion the only OEM that releases a flagship 4.7 inch device does not make me an astroturfer. Name another OEM that releases a smartphone with a side mounted fingerprint sensor. No, seriously name one so I can go champion their smartphone as that is the best place for a fingerprint sensor, IMHO.
An announcement for an announcement. Excellent.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Speaking of colors I'm still miffed Samsung didn't release all 5 colors of the S8 globally.
I fucking hate when companies do shit like this.

Lol I didn't even think about you so I'll say 4 now.
Nextbit btw.
Sony has a fingerprint sensor?
Yeah, wanted that blue. Luckily it was slippy enough to make me want a case anyway, so I got one in that blue.

How many Samsung Astroturfers? I lost count.
FP sensors is built-in world wide, it's only software disabled in the US.
Probably because Sony actually advertised the Z3 and was sold at multiple carriers in the US. After that they kinda give up. They didn't release the XZ in Canada either.
Vanillalite
Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Yeah I wanted blue too.
Dumb as fuck to show it off in your big presentation then say but you can't actually buy it.
Yeah if you are presenting in the US. Everything shown should be sold here at the very least.

The same amount Apple has.
So a shit ton? Think there was more iPhone mentioned in the previous Android OT than xperia.
Oh so rubin phone "soon" is actually really soon.

I figured you'd just get both.
Then he would get a Nokia 9.
Depends on approach and features.
But currently car shopping so maybe chill on tech buys on 2017 lol.

No way!
I'm in the UK and I think there was a big push to give it away free on modest tariffs too, which helped. At least with the Compact.
