Galaxy S5?



I think I'll stick to my S4. The day a company releases a smartphone which has decent functionality with a battery life of longer than a day, I think they'll be minted. But in regards to the first reply, apps can be helpful when needed - I use the GPS almost every week.

Rooted my G2 ,installed Greenify app and just got 2 full days out of one charge.
 
Why would anyone volunteer their fingerprint to corporations??

Is this the freedom I read about?

I'm not sure how samsung does it, but with the iPhone it never leaves the device.

And what's the big deal about it though? My fingerprints are already on file from when I got my Firearms ID, as are most peoples that have a job and had to get a background check.
 
I've never owned a smartphone. Frankly, I don't ever want to own one. Even my "dumb" phone kills my productivity, which is why I keep it off and let everyone go to voicemail.


This. I haven't had a phone since September. I'm picking a new one up this week because I will be traveling a bunch over the next 6 months, but life without a phone was really nice.

What if fingerprints can be returned in results like a search engine. The feds scan in a fingerprint and say, google show me who this is, and whalla there ya go.

Ummm, ya... what if the police could input some fingerprints, which then scans a database, and returns matching results. That would be crazy.
