Not sure if you were referring to my post, but a Gear VR is a virtual reality headset that you mount your phone onto. It's a lot of fun, especially when you watch the reaction of people you let use it.

I got the LG G6, and I love it.  The S8 and S8+ are great phones, but I got mine three weeks ago when my phone screen got crushed.  I just got my free Google Home yesterday =)  Pretty sweet.

Any my finger print scanner is easily located and fast!

Speaking of that, one of my students was showing off his.  Now, it's a brand new device, and he's coming from an iphone; but it took him considerably longer than to unlock via his iris and face, and he fumbled with the FPS (I've read it's good once you get it right).

So I like my simplicity =)  And I enjoy the wide angle lens.  Again, I have no qualms with the Samsung phones, but people shouldn't sleep on the G6.  It's a fantastic option.

That's a big preferential issue.  Some people love how they have can MORE short cuts on their phones.  I was always concerned about the long term durability, event with Gorilla Glass 5 on the whole thing.  Again, my kid with the S8+, there are still exposed edges despite the case.  You can't protect that edge if you drop it on something like a curb, a projected surface.  

I agree, the flat screen is nice.  Despite the need for a case and screen protector (the GG3/5 combo on the G6 didn't fare well in the cnet drop test, especially compared to the Samsung), I have a little more piece of mind that my phone can take a few more drops because I don't have glass protruding past the screen.

Eh... I could do without it, but it's fine.  The screen itself is amazing.

So far loving the phone.  Battery life is tremendous...  I'm getting 30 hours on a charge with moderate use now.

      PFF: Biggest free-agent bargains of the 2025 NFL season

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      CB Michael Jackson, Carolina Panthers Last offseason, the Panthers re-signed Jackson to a contract that averages just $5.25 million across the two years of his deal, which ranks only 40th among cornerbacks. However, Jackson rewarded Carolina with an excellent season, as his 83.5 PFF overall grade was the third-best among cornerbacks across the entire year. More specifically, from Week 7 on, his 90.7 PFF overall grade led all players at the position, as did his 91.4 PFF coverage grade. In addition, he also allowed a passer rating of just 42.8 during this period, which paced all corners. Jackson capped off his 2025 campaign by being the best player on the field in Carolina’s wild-card loss to the Rams. On eight targets, he gave up just one reception while forcing four incompletions and recording an interception as well https://www.pff.com/news/biggest-free-agent-bargains-of-the-2025-nfl-season-sam-darnold-mike-jackson-and-more

      PFF: Biggest free-agent bargains of the 2025 NFL season

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      RB Rico Dowdle, Carolina Panthers Dowdle signed a textbook example of a “prove-it” type of deal with Carolina during the 2025 offseason. The former Dallas Cowboys runner signed a one-year deal that was worth just $2.75 million, which ranked only 33rd among the annual average earnings of all running backs — essentially meaning that he was not paid as a starter for last season. However, that did not stop Dowdle from racking up the 14th-most rushing yards among running backs with 1,076 during the regular season. Further, Dowdle was essential over a five-week stretch between Weeks 5-9 when the Panthers went 4-1 — recording half of their wins during the entire season over that window. During this period, his 652 rushing yards led all running backs, with the gap between him and the second player (Jonathan Taylor) being the equivalent to the gap between Taylor and the 10th running back. In addition, Dowdle’s 85.0 PFF rushing grade also led the league during this period. Despite not being paid as a starter, Dowdle had a huge impact on the Panthers during a crucial time of the season
