Got my fiance an S9 for our anniversary/birthday. Inggit ako! Baka mapabili ako ng di oras [emoji23]

Bagal na kasi ng S7 especially with Android Auto.

Anyone here tried an S8/Note 8/S9 with Android Auto? Naglalag ba?

Grats, jut sir! Grab 1. S8 seems to work well w/ AA.....even on MzdConnect's AIO Tweaks.

Hmm. Can't decide if I'll get an S9, S8, Note 8, or just keep my S7.

S9 is 24k from Globe if I upgrade my plan to 1499 (8GB data). Note 8 is 29k. Total spend for 2 years (phone + plan less residual value of my S7) is 45k for the S9 and 50k for the Note 8.

S8 is around 24k now in the secondhand market. Total spend for 2 years is just 28k.

Keeping my S7 Edge, total spend is just 19k (just the plan). But risk is that the S7 doesn't last 2 more years - my brother's S7 is already showing signs of LCD burn-in and battery heating up.

Go for what your heart desires. The price difference is not that significant though plus you have the S-Pen on the N8.

I don't really have the itch to have the latest phone. I prefer money in the bank than on a depreciating gadget.

It's just that the S7 has gotten quite laggy and I don't think it can last another 2 years. Pag hinintay ko pang masira bago ko ibenta, sayang hindi ko napakinabangan residual value niya. Pero kung tatagal pa siya 2 years pagtiyagaan ko nalang until bumaba value ng S9...

same here bro. thinking getting S8 or skip and jump to S9. most likely S8, mahal pa ang S9 lols!

experiencing burn in screen too with my S7e. i sometimes felt the power button heating up a bit, might be the battery too.

i'm keeping my S7e for now. maybe till Oreo upgrade comes [emoji56] i'm still enjoying the portability with my wireless headphone.

Pareho bang IphoneX ung dalawa OB? Eh fi may I20 ka na! Parang hyundai!

Nope i didnt buy iphone x pa. Luge ka dyan kasi papalitan kagad ng apple ang screen coz of the black tab sa upper center this year.

Ano i20, you mean P20. Oo nga eh masisira workflow ko kasi I have yet to learn android. Photos ko kasi naka one set button resize to 200kb and auto upload to google drive for instant backup.

Ang hirap kasi mamili ng photos pag fit ka, lahat maganda kaya di ko malaman king ano idedelete. Kay ino-automate ko workflow ko.

I mean photos lang yan diba, why spend like one hour sorting and resizing and backuping a day

I was expecting the S9 to completely blow the S7 Edge out of the water when it came to indoor low-light shots. It has a wider aperture and newer sensor after all.

To be honest, I find the difference to be negligible.

blow it up using a larger, HD-capable screen. the better quality will probably make itself known.

Which means that in regular use, it's not a pronounced difference.

So much for the tagline "camera reimagined."
