      Haplo, 31 Oct 2015Yeah, well, a Galaxy Note 4 will also lag badly after a few... moreNo, it wont. The best large phone of it's time (much better than the iPhone 6+ - and the tech reviewers agreed, with the overwhelming majority rating it better). Had mine for almost a year - zero lag. I'm on the Note 5 now, and like it's older sibling, it's the best big phone on the market, by a longshot.

        They all take ideas from each other. Apple Pay, which you mentioned, was a direct ripoff of Google Wallet. (And again, was based on two things the iLegion declared a gimmick - NFC and Tap to Pay).

        Remember when people looked stupid with those giant phones held up to their heads, until they suddenly didn't when Apple put out even bigger phones.

        Just stop,

                AnonD-147377, 31 Oct 2015Did you even tried Bada? Because i did on Wave 1 and it was... morei own wave 3. have u try bada on wave 3 ?.... it sucks, lagging , very slow , battery drain fast . theres nothing u can do with it , even the widget are useless and not work perfectly .

                If u said more better than ios android and wp , why samsung use other os? why just not stick to his own os ?? i dont think android will be history if samsung made bada an open source and u can see the bada itself trying to be like android .

                but i admit , wave 3 have beautiful design, the quality , far more better than galaxy design. and their hot spot coverage really good. :)

                      Reason jobs are being cut is due to too many phone models which are not being updated to latest Android OS with no individuality in design and too much competition.

                      So new individual designs (body and icons) needed and on Marshmallow Android 6.0.

                      Stand out from the Crowd.

                            Was this because they had a surplus of unsold devices? The good side to this, they could cut on the volume of devices they produce/manufacture/assemble and perhaps even a cut in model/portfolio releases. The bad note to this, however, is that it is people's income getting affected

                              Even better than iOS + Android + WP combined together, the only downside it had it didn't had Apps and games. If Samsung made it open source i think Android would be a history.
