    Does Google now have my fingerprint?

    I use a long passkey and fingerprint unlock. In the event you are pulled over or anticipate a situation where you might be searched, reboot your phone. That makes entering the passkey a requirement. That way you get the convenience of fingerprint unlock, and the security of a long passkey.

    Holy crap, TMobile did it. Binge On video streaming

    One of the sites reported that it did apply, but I guess we'll find out after the 15th.

    9/29 Google Press Event Discussion (Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X)

    A year from now Android will get cool new features and Samsung will take forever to update, and will of course update their 2016 flagship models first which would leave me feeling frustrated. A year after that Android will again update and at that point your phone will be way down on Samsung's...

    So Android for phones and iOS for tablets

    I use Android and have a Nexus 6p on order, but after reading the iPhone 6s review I'm inclined to believe that iOS is just better for this phone cycle. As far as tablets, I think it's either a Surface Pro or iPad. Android tablets are fine as a budget friendly option, but the iPad is just...

    On that note, if anyone wants a C to A cable, Oneplus makes the best I've seen. They are good quality, reversible at both ends, and come with a built in strap for storage.

    So Did Lenovo Finally Ruin Motorola?

    In answer to the OP, yes. I do believe that Motorola has gone down in terms of both customer service and timely updates since the Lenovo acquisition. I had a bad CS experience with them last year. Needless to say, I no longer recommend Motorola to my circle of contacts.

    PSA: Why you should avoid Motorola Phones.

    Well, I appreciate the rational demeanor of your post. I'm quite sure it's not a deal breaker to everyone, and as I said, my main goal is share my experience. Going on, I have often read that many Android manufacturers struggle with profitability. For a long time Samsung was the only one...

    PSA: Why you should avoid Motorola Phones.

    I did not seek a free repair. Even if I was in warranty, physical damage would not be covered. You misread my post.
