Cool. I like mine. What color you get? The black sapphire has a cool blue tint to it in certain lighting. I don't know how you are about cases but lifeproof just released theirs for it finally. I go no case even though it is all glass. I've had it about 3 months and haven't had any problems.
I got the black sapphire look and I'll definitely be getting a lifeproof case for it.

no it's a carrier/sms issue. sms texts are limited to a certin # of characters. iphones get around this with imessage. with an android phone, you are using old school texts (like on an old nokia phone basically). your iphone friends won't have the google messenger or whatever your previous poster was referring to as a native text app.

I fixed the texts splitting up on my end by switching to handcent SMS app. found out about it through a google search and using it was one of the solutions offered. Just selected the option in settings that converted long texts to MMS format instead of SMS and now my long texts arrive to iphone users as one long message.
But when my girlfriend with an iphone sends me a long message it still splits it up into separate messages :( . Guess I'll have to look at her settings next time we hang out.

need a lifeproof case for working out with.
I sweat a lot in the gym but never to the extent that i'd need a lifeproof case..holy hell!
man I do sweat a lot since I workout pretty hard. plus when I run out in the heat, it only increases. but it's really probably due to how I keep my phone while working out. I just put it in the elastic waist band of my shorts. sweat can easily drip on it, but it's the best way I've found to workout or run with it. can't have it in a pocket or it would bounce around.
lifeproof case + wireless waterproof headphones should solve my issues once I get them.

Might be too late but the s6 active is the way to go.
Battery is a beast.
I agree....... Charges from 10 to 100% in under 2 hours. Only thing I don't like is the Samsung stock keyboard. Google keyboard solved that issue.

You like google keyboard more than swiftkey?
Posted on 7/9/15 at 4:57 pm to hawgfaninc
I prefer Google keyboard. I always prefer Google apps though.

My S6 overheated and died today while I was working out with it. Should of waited till my lifeproof case came in before working out with it.
Anyway took it back to verizon and got a new S6. Thankfully all my texts, pics, and apps were backed up to the cloud. Made picking back up where I left off pretty seamless. If it overheats again I'll probably get a different phone.

Posted on 7/9/15 at 8:55 pm to jivy26
much prefer stock google keyboard myself, always seem to be like a 0.5 second delay with swiftkey

The battery life of the iPhone 6 SUCKS! I don't know about the S6.

Yes I do.... I prefer the keys to be spaced further apart.
