Motorola XForce may not support volte too in the future due to the lack of android updates . Along with jio Airtel too has begun to implement volte in mumbai . This point too should be considered before you decide to buy it .

Waiting for that. Hoping to exchange my V20 and get the V30 if priced at around 50k. Wishful thinking i know, but people somehow do not seem to pay the same price for an LG as they would do for a Samsung.

Well, not wishful thinking at all. They'd rather price it that or even lesser than 50k, rather than price it more and see no sales at all. As you said, literally no one purchases LG phones, I only know of 1 colleague who has a model that also sports a stylus.

I am also keen on the V30 especially for the video+audio capabilities. I think they might just price it at par or a shade cheaper than S8 here. So a 50k+ price seems to be a given.

I did buy an LG G1800 earlier in my life (~05 or 06), though it was the pre-android era. It had a massive "64 MB" memory lol:

Anybody using the Galaxy S7 here? Flipkart is holding a sale where it will be for 27k. Wanted to know your feedback on it. General performance, camera, battery etc. I reckon it's mostly as good as the S8 except for the better looking design.

I am using the S7 Edge for almost a year and am completely satisfied with all aspects of this phone. No issues whatsoever.

Do not buy the 32gb variant as space issues will have you deleting stuff regularly, which is painful. Even with a sd card its no use as what's app images, videos take up space which cannot be moved to the sd card.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply

Only the 32 variant is available in the flat S7 and even in the sale. I'm using the 32gb redmi note 3 with an sd card and I'm comfortable with 32 gig internal so probably wouldn't be an issue.

Thought about it, but too large and no water resistance and AMOLED screen.

Its USP is that brilliant DAC but i just bought one of the most expensive headphones, but they are bluetoothlol: , so i'm not the right customer for that.

Well some Bluetooth headphones do have an 3.5 inch input port, so if it's so in your case you could still connect it and enjoy the brilliance, eh?

By the way the G6 also comes with single DAC and is a pretty good phone with water resistance etc so you could have a look that way too. Just a couple of thousand more. For the price it is at, its the closest you can get to flagship level(almost) territory in the price segment.

You get what you paid for. Moto phones are bought because they are almost vanilla OS, plus regular OS updates are promised and kept. That doesn't seems to the case now. Moto G4, promised Android O, now promise has been updated silently. While going back on promise is nothing new in Android world (remember 1+), this happening with Motorola is a concern.

The G6 is a better option over the V20. Couple of improvements, even the DAC sounds damn good. Lot of positives in favor of G6 and with the upcoming sale you might get it at a good rate.

Avoid the V20 - bulky, boot loop issues, issues with battery drain etc.

Picked up Bose QC35? Bowers & Wilkins P7 Wireless?

However, the Play got VOLTE updates but Style was left out. Similalry Android N was rolled out much faster to Play before the Style received it's update.

Hi,Can anyone help me out with an issue with WHATSAPP in my wife's phone.What happens is that when i delete the chat all media viz the photographs get deleted from the whatsapp images in the gallery, related to that particular chat. I dont mind this happening, but when we receieve photos related to family, it matters. I uninstalled whatsapp and reinstalled, but no change, also un installed some task killer apps which were present in the phone.this is not happening on my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Do not delete all chats together.

Open an individual chat, go to the three dots (settings - top right corner), select more, select "clear chat" and in the dialogue box which appears, de-select the option "delete media from phone".

The above will clear your selected chat and at the same time will not delete the media from your phone/gallery.

Cheers
