I saw and advertisement for BlackBerry the other day. Intriguing.
I'm friends with their chief counsel. Interesting position.

I love the crap out of the ones I had, but they got left behind in the app world. Interesting to learn how they are received with android.

My mom has an S7 on AT&T that is riddled with adware. The guy at the store says nothing can be done and that Reddit says it's a problem with the S7. My S7 active does not have this problem.

Anyway, is there any recourse? Switch carriers and get a new phone?

Yeah. It makes zero sense to me. She said it started with the last update.

Buy a Moto G5 Plus with no ads for half the price of the S7. :)

I would agree but I don't get why the att man said that a hard reset won't fix it. She had no apps on her phone that I don't have on my S7 Active.

What's not clear about it?  They are releasing new phones every year to make a profit.  SDK buys these phones, so it's hypocritical to say I'm in the pocket of big Greed.  This isn't hard to follow.

I got it TBT.

Does Apple perhaps overdo it with these announcement days? Absolutely. Does that make it any less enjoyable for someone like me? Absolutely not.

I didn't follow the greed thing, I thought tbt was saying Samsung doesn't announce new phones so that's why I was confused.

Happy Apple day Apple buds
