Just got the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime and I want a better phone - Dr.Penguin - Jul 10, 2016

So my old phone (samsung galaxy s3) fucked up after I tried updating it so I had to get a new phone. I went to Walmart and bought this phone and it's locked to straight talk only (carrier I have) and on amazon there is the exact phone and it's unlocked same price. I kinda want to get a galaxy s7, I was debating on an iphone but I'm pretty much locked onto a s7. I know they're expensive as fuck but I feel like I will have the phone for years to come and it'll be worth it. What do you think? It'll be A LOT better than this cheap phone. No body wants to walk around with a cheap ass phone with a shitty camera.

The S7 will probably crap out on you after they release an S8, but I'd go for it if I liked Samsung.

LOL This isn't an iPhone we're talking about here, Samsung just doesn't throw you under the bus now do they unlike Apple?

Either wait for iPhone 8 or go with 7S

It's the opposite. Apple supports for longer periods.

Are you not able to Jailbreak your phone?

I'm saying if you want an iPhone, wait for the 8. The current iPhone's are not worth their price in my opinion, not much has changed. And I seriously would buy just a 5S or SE because I like smaller devices.

Anyway, I've read and heard Apple supports older devices for longer times (OS updates) compared to Samsung etc

I have no proof tho

I know, but wait for the 8.
Please don't make me repeat that a third time 😭

Patents were bough, strong rumors made, iPhone 8= 10th anniversary,..
So the 8 should be amazing. A design change, material change.. glass phone maybe

Etc
