Edge is 1 1/2 yrs old. Nope it'll be 64gb one. Value of phones depreciate a lot more In Singapore
This gives me comfort! I'm upgrading from an S7 to the 5T. Overall the phone was very slow, and it's the first time I've ever bought a phone before my contract was over.Well so far no complaints, definitely snappier than my s7e which I see now fell to the Samsung slow down curse.
Small Things I like:
Double tap to wake!
Ridiculously fast face unlock.
Bringing down notifications with fingerprint scanner.
Double tap options on the navigation buttons,.
Reversing nav buttons.
Camera isn't that bad.... I was expecting horrible ****
Okay well camera isn't that great lol. All the people have like chalky looking faces, but i knew this and okay with it. Everything else is great.

Currently:
I still have 50% left after:
SOT: 4 hours
Soundcloud Streaming : 4 hours non stop
Hearthstone: 2 hours
Auto brightness
No wifi, 4g+ only

My battery life is barely half that.
SOT: 2 hours
Brightness: 80%
Wifi and LTE
Location on
no BT
Going to try your settings...
Why such high brightness? That will decimate your battery life.
Iv also been getting some really good SOT, well over 5 hrs .
Did you get your phone? Just curious because mine still says "Clearing Customs" and its been like that since 5 February...

Screen on time?Hey I got the phone on the 23rd of Feb (ordered on the 8th). If you can, contact the Aramex customer service for them to send you the customs invoice if they have not already.
Hope you get it soon though.
On another note, saw the battery life posts aboveand jeez very impressed with my battery life so far
