Old phone (LG G7) vs new phone (Samsung Galaxy S10 5G) bullet points/mini review

So yeah. After only 13 months of using LG G7 ThinQ, I switched to Samsung Galaxy S10 5G.

Why, you may ask, and the aswer is simple; I have been using LG phones for 5 years from LG G Spirit aka budget G4 to budget G5 (the SD670 model) to G6 finally G7. I have loved every single one of them and I still do but I needed a breath of fresh air. The G7 also felt bit lackluster when it comes to RAM management and I had sometimes bit of a trouble with typing with so "small" screen and seeked bit larger...

Gboard is so much better on Android than iOS.

People love to complain about Google releasing updates and new features for iOS before Android... but Gboard on Android is so much better than it is on iOS.

The customizable shortcut bar above the keyboard. The separate number row. Long-pressing for symbols. Gboard on iOS has none of these things I used every day!

Gboard for iOS has the one-handed use feature, but the touch target is much harder to hit than it is on Android, and you can't move it around or change the size.

Also, a lot of Goo...

Samsung Xcover Fieldpro now available on ATT in America

I've been watching their website for it almost daily and it just popped up today. I've already ordered it as an upgrade to my beloved KeyOne. I don't want to get rid of this phone but the battery is barely lasting me half a day now. My last phone was an S8 active and I had been hoping Samsung would release a new heavy duty phone.

Delivery is estimated for about two weeks out so it's going to be a long wait.

Average Battery Life Nowadays??

So as time goes by, we got to see new models of phones with battery of 4000-6000mah.

So I wanted to hear, especially from those that have newer models with high battery capacity, their average hours or days they got when using their phones until drainage and also their average screen on time.

Edit: I would also like to know the average of high power usage like when gaming and low power like when using only for work...

I'm getting to the point of giving up

No matter what android phone I ever have group messaging never works right.

I not only get them as single messages half the time but at least 2/3 of the time these single messages say downloading and they never download even if my mobile data is on. I can't see these messages so I can't contribute to group chats and I don't know what to do.

I've called the phone company, I've changed my MMS settings, I've changed phones, ect. Does anyone else have this problem and have you found a way to fix i...
