Which cell phone? (1 Viewer)

[NeverEnough]

I have a Droid Turbo now. It's going between the Turbo 2, Moto Z Force or S8+ for my next phone.
Not sure whether or not the Z Force is worth the extra $200 over the Turbo 2 and I'm not sure if the S8+ screen will be able to survive if I drop it.

Any vote allowed for the iPhone?

I have the s7. Thinking about switching to the G5 for the removable battery. This is the first phone I've had without and I hate running out of juice.

The title doesnt fit my issue, but no need to start another thread. I have a company issued Kyocera Dura Force Pro 2. In order to unlock it, you have to use a code or your fingerprint. My issue is, even when locked, it will bring up pages and contacts and even make calls while in my pocket. I even set up a GroupMe event while cutting the grass.  How does this possibly happen if neither the code was entered or the fingerprint recognized? More importantly, how do I stop it?

This is what I was going to recommend.  I have the regular pixel 3 and love it, if 3a was an option I would have gone with that though

Wow, Kyocera is a brand I haven't heard in awhile.

Unfortunately, android has started to add "features" that make it faster/easier to start your phone(I guess touching a button on the side is just too tough for some folks). IMO they wake up your phone WAY too often and every time the screen turns on(whether it's in your pocket or you simply pick it up) it's eating away at your battery life so I always disable these "features". If it is a simple problem with one of these awake settings hopefully this link will help.....

I go pretty cheap on cell phones, but the Moto G7 Power has been calling me.  The thought of a 5 day battery is pretty alluring.

If you drop the 3 in the pool you'll be glad you have that version.

Big fan of the g5...  i fear my next phone won't have removable battery.. and man i love hot swapping batteries..  i have 4 batteries

Fair point.  Even though mine is waterproof I'm still super cautious with it around water.

My wife on the other hand will tell you that her iphone can survive a spin through the washing machine

Love my Kyocera DuraXT

Love my Kyocera DuraXT

Looks kind of cool. Seems like the type of phone the fellas in the truck TV commercials would use. Those commercials where molten steel is being poured all around them and for some reason a back loader is dumping gravel into the back of their pickup from an unusually high distance. I always think to myself, "If I could afford that $80k pickup truck, heck I'd probably be able to afford to have somebody DELIVER that gravel to my house for me."
