    A man walks into a smartwatch store... (LG Watch Sport vs. Samsung Gear S3 impressions)

    I went to the AT&T store after work today with the hopes of buying an LG Watch Sport. The reason I started looking at smartwatches to begin with was because I simply wanted something that could take voice memos without having to pull out & hold my phone every time. The Senstone, a device born...

    My ZTE Blade V8 Pro's mobile data does not work

    I am able to access cellular network for calls but no data on my phone. When I put my AT&T SIM card in a different phone, mobile data works fine. I called ZTE customer support and the rep did not seem that knowledgeable but after putting me on a few brief holds she recommended I send it in for...

    Case or no case? - Huawei Honor 8

    I would recommend getting a case. I just notice the glass on the back of my phone is cracked and I don't remember dropping or hitting anything hard enough to break it! More fragile than it seems I think.

    Help Can't boot with SD card inserted (Blu Dash M2)

    Hi, looking for some help retrieving my seemingly lost photos/videos. I formatted my SD card for Android and was using it to store apps and media. Whenever I boot up my phone now, it gets stuck on the launch screen after I enter my passcode to decrypt it. If I remove the SD card, it boots up...

    Using a family member's upgrade to go from 3G to 4G (WARNING!)

    Just a heads up if you are planning to upgrade your phone using a family members' eligible upgrade: if you are upgrading to a 4G device from a 3G device, you need to bring in your family members' phone to the store, so they can give them a new SIM card. 4G devices use a different SIM card, so I...

    Battery life

    Can anyone report on the battery life of this phone? I have read that battery life depends on whether or not you're in an LTE-covered area, so please include how much time your phone was in/out of that coverage. Thanks in advance!

    LTE devices on the way...

    Just a heads up for those looking at new phones: I was very tempted to get the Atrix 2 because of the great specs and price (49.99 w new contract), but I did some digging and it looks like around Thanksgiving AT&T will release some phones with LTE including the HTC Holiday. So if you're not in...

    (AT&T) Galaxy S2 vs Atrix 2 ?

    So if the rumors are right about the Nexus Prime, it won't be coming to AT&T for at least a few months, and I'm in need of a new phone. Which new phone should I pick up? The Galaxy S2 or the Atrix 2? I realize it's tough to say since the Atrix 2 isn't out yet, but it doesn't seem like the...

    AVG antivirus free: Killed my battery life

    I have a Samsung Captivate with Android 2.1 and this app drained my battery SO fast. I looked at my battery usage by app in android's main settings menu, and this app took up around 56% of my entire charge. I uninstalled the app and now my battery lasts so much longer. Your review must...
