What handset are you using? I can run hotspot for 6 hours with gaming calls and emails. Manage over 15 hours between charges.

I'm using the S6 EDGE, absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Yeah I had one.It's just OK,not really 2017 material together with crap battery life and no waterproofing though.

The Z5 premium is a much better phone.

How dare you introduce non Samsung to the chat

Pity Motorola didn't carry on the development of their razr maxx that was a phone way ahead of its time.

On my account i have 2 contracts, 1 for me and one for SO. So her number appears when i click linked accounts.

Good thing you were around to clear things up. I was confused as well, just seen why I was wrong.

I'm not even an anti Samsung person,currently using an S7 edge but really a z5 premium is so much better than an s6 edge,I would still say Sony's current best phone.

I have been throttled I'm sure,my speed from 2mbps is gone to 200kb
I'm not being throttled, but my speed has decreased using my router, I know there are many factors to consider, but think this time it's tower congestion, few more of this deal and I'll be ranting like the Telkom LTE guys I feel.

Same here,not ps4, xbone. I'm not saying it's bad, just I can see a drop in speed, latency remains excellent. Still better than Telkom agreed.
