    I may give the HTC 10 a try. I liked my old HTC One M8.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      ok. i thought it was a fee like regular jump. we're going to do either the iphone upgrade thing directly through apple or jump (or maybe on demand i guess). do you have to make a certain number of payments with in demand before you can upgrade?

        I don't think so. Supposedly you can change 3 times in a rolling 12 month period. I think Jump! makes you wait 6 months or something. On Demand is supposed to let you change at any time. But I think there is a limited number of phones to choose from (generally, the "best" phones anyway).

            Good luck with that Samsung, your bloatware is garbage. Easily the worst manufacturer overlay is Samsung's, but they also made the best hardware until their phones started blowing up. Unbastardized Android is much better than Samsung's Touchwiz.
            Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

              That's what I have right now. I actually use the S-Pen, but I HATE the fact that my phone at random times will have a battery drain. I look at the battery stats and it will say something like "Media Server" is gobbling up the battery. Media Server is Samsungish for Johnson Rod.

              I'm considering buying the Pixel XL outright from Verizon and going prepaid for one month, and then switching back to my Verizon MVNO.

              • Hurry and buy your lightning port accessories folks. So that Apple can drop it on the iPhone 8 and charge you for an entirely new series of devices.

                  • I bought these in anticipation of Apple maintaining their courage of losing the headphone jack:

                    They are actually the best sports headphones I've tried. Super comfortable and they stay in my ears. They are not noise cancelling, but still have really good sound. I'm happy with them, and not just because I'm an Apple fanboi.

                    • I'm pretty sure you are lying. There's no way you can enjoy them since the digital/electronic sound is inferior to what the old headphone jack gave...per many experts on this board.

                        Haha. Dumbest response yet.

                            LOL. My ears are in no way attuned like some on this board, though I will confess, they aren't the best sounding ones I've had (my wired Bose are pretty great). However, when the even most diehard audiophiles on this board finally give up the good fight and buy their iPhone 7, I hope they remember my recommendation for solid sports headphones.

                              For $149?! I don't think I'll be searching for the recommendation.

                                Well, the Bose name probably accounts for ~30 dollars of that price. But they're at least worth 125.
                                If you're going to balk at that price, I guess you're not an audiophile. Sad!
