I just setup a new S21 for my Mother in Law. I love this phone. I am all in and getting an S21 Ultra in blue in the next day or so. It flat out destroys my iPhone 11 in every way. From performance, to screen, to camera, to how the os works. WOW. Apple is no where near what this phone is. Glad I got to set it up for her. It's SOOO fast and nice.

It's great to have an intuitive, modern OS. iOS has been stagnant for years. It still looks essentially the same since its start. Android on the other hand has moved on from it's beginnings and modernized as time went on. The last android phone I owned was the original note. I have been using my 1020 and 4 different iphone models since. However, after yesterday and setting up that S21, I am ditching iPhone right away.

Can't wait.

Interesting. I'm also considering the S21 Ultra, iphone 13, and Pixel 6.

Much to think about!

Scratch the iPhone off the list. Nothing new, exciting or otherwise there. My iphone is garbage. Screen is terrible, camera is so so, I have major stability and connectivity issues with it. Apple will do nothing with the phone for me, even though I am in warranty without going to an apple store. 8 hrs drive plus 7 hr ferry ride one way. NOT going to happen. Telus will not do anything. They don't warranty the phone.

Needless to say, I have everything apple moved out of my home except 2 iphones.

Thanks for your opinion. The iphone is still on my list, although I think I'd really like to stay with android.

I'm very much interested in the S21 Ultra. Seems like it checks all the boxes for me But I'll wait another month to see what the Pixel 6 Pro has to offer.

I was about to buy the Note 20 Ultra. The included stylus and micro SD are features I really like. But while reading reviews on amazon a few people reported blurry close-up shots. I did a search on the net and there are many complaints about this. Since I use my phone often to photograph documents, I decided to pass on the Note. I'm glad I read the reviews before buying.

I am flip flopping back and forth between the S21 Ultra, pixel 6 pro and the new surface duo 2 coming tomorrow. all three have my attention. I am stuck with the junky iPhone for another 9 months. Apple won't admit there is a problem, telus can't replace it and I feel that I should not have to pay to replace it myself since there are obvious issues with it. Needless to say, Apple is done in this household. I will probably jump on the duo 2 if the cameras are as good as the 950xl back in the day!

I'm not sure the surface duo 2 is for me. With a non-folding phone I can glance at the screen to see if I received any calls, texts, etc. Or check the time, date, weather, and so on. With a folding phone I have to open it up every time to see these things. Well, at least I think so.

Hmmm...I wonder if MS will give us an updated Surface Go 2 tablet? I like mine but a Surface Go 3 with better screen resolution and faster processor would be nice.

We will know tomorrow!

As far as I know a new surface go 3 is coming tomorrow as well.  I love surface devices.  I just wish they made a surface laptop in two in one form factor like my dell.  I agree with the duo having to be opened.  I combat that with a wear OS watch.  The functionality while open is amazing though.
