Samsung S7 BEWARE





I have had a Samsung S7 through Verizon Mobile and it was carefully maintained and kept in a case throughout its existence.  Imagine my surprise when it started behaving erratically and I removed the case to discover a swollen battery.  I googled swollen battery and discovered a wealth of complaints. The phone is not even paid off as I elected to buy it through Verizon.  I contacted Samsung and they said that they would fix it for $70.00.   So they sold me a defective product and expect me to pay to have it repaired.   The battery issue is well documented and has caused Samsung a lot of bad public relations, JUSTLY!  If they can't build a phone that can be taken care of and is immaculate with the exception of the swollen battery then they should get out of the phone business.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
