Why do you care about having the latest OS?

I'm gonna start by mentioning that I've been a long time android user, My first android phone was a Motorola Atrix that came with android 2.3.4 and was later upgraded to 2.3.6. I was also a Custom ROM junky, I was flashing new roms every other day to test new features and styles. I will not bore you with the history of my handsets but I've been through all of them. A little tweak here and there some improvements but I feel like android has basically stagnated in their features since Android 6.0....

I had recently migrated from Iphone to Android and realized that Spotify for Android doesn't have the ability to swipe a track to add to a queue which is incredibly useful if you are on the go queueing. Spotify's system for change is based on votes if you would like this feature give it a vote!

I have the Galaxy Home Mini. AMA

I got a beta version of the home mini and made a video about it which you can see here.
[link](https://youtu.be/SPzJZwfmSec)

It's my first attempt at making a YouTube video.

I'll be making a follow up video to show a few things I couldn't show in the first one such as the settings menu.

Ask me anything about the product, I did not sign a NDA...

Compact android smartphones?

Is there any special reason why there is no more 4 inch or 4,5 inch smartphones ? Really none of brands see opportunity to produce one small/handy smartphones with new android and components?

They are ridiculusly fighting for customer with same size but none has even try to break stereotypes getting bigger instead create small category small phone. It won't be high runner for production I guess but still there is a lot of people would appreciate and buy. Hm?...

$25 additional instant Samsung credit for S20 early orders

If you preselected to order a Samsung S20 on their site, you might wanna check your inbox for an email from Samsung saying they've given you an additional $25 in instant credit (in addition to the $200/$100 they're giving for pre-ordering an S20+/S20).

I just got such an email from them a few minutes ago, so I'll be using it towards some accessories to go with my S20. 👍🏻...
