Thinking about copping the white oneplus 6. Price is now $479 and there is no difference in hardware but the S10 hype making me apprehensive.

The S10 will be a guaranteed winner but the one plus 6t will be ultra smooth for years and is already seen as a great stand out product this year.

Yes alot of reviews saying how smooth it is and could be phone of the year contender

Definitely midrange phone pg the year easily. It's a wonderful phone. I just cant play with notches...I was gonna get the 5t around March but Tmobile gave me a no money down flip for the s9 at just 15 a month. I had to say yes to that.

Ok...by Friday..I'm expecting my Spigen case from Amazon Prime...as well as my new Note 9 from Tmobile...Zennis on Friday too. My contacts will be here likely by Friday or Sat.

The Wireless charger Duo probably gets here next Monday since I got just regular shipping with that.

Note 9 and The Fast charger Duo just arrived a day early...the Duo has a bigger than usual fast charging brick. Coolio. Back in the game....now let's get to work.

I'm thinking of trading in my Pixel XL for the Oneplus 6T Google is only offering $155 for the Pixel XL trade in.

$280 for 6T $850 for Pixel XL 3

Or wait a whole year for Pixel 4?

Better notch...just as smooth as the pixel. The pixel has the better camera but the one plus 6t camera did well in the direct comparisons with xs max, note 9, and pixel 3. Its a great phone..

Best phone of 2018 easily, if you can also charge headphones then it's a game changer. Best implementation of Face ID I've seen on the Android side and a 4200mAh battery.

Only thing holding it back is software and possible privacy concerns but all these phones can be gotten into. I just don't like buying a phone and feeling the need to customize out of the box, there's no way I'd be able to use that skin.

The Gear Vr doesnt fit the note9. Samsu g does have an adapter though, and they will send it to tou for free.

There is no phone that is 200+ bucks better than the OnePlus 6T. There are better devices but not by that much.

Since I got my note from Tmobile, will Samsung still give me the VR with a receipt?

This came out a few months ago but I never copied the report

Dr. Soneira stated, "Even with our new tougher grading standards and new tests, the Galaxy Note 9 receives 100% all green very good to excellent ratings in all categories, earning DisplayMate's highest ever A+ grade."

The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 display is stunning. Independent testing confirmed you will not find a better display on a smartphone today.

Since the display is what you spend hours looking at each day and one of the most important aspects of a smartphone, having a record-setting display backs up my decision to put the Galaxy Note 9 at the top of my 10 best smartphones list.
