Screenshot is volume down and power for me. Camera is double press power although that might be a high end feature. Check in settings for quick launch * +

it's an S6 that he's got albeit in a funky active version which usually has different internals. can never remember which way that is for a screenshot, I use xposed so I just have it as a notification toggle. * +

You can't compare a budget Samsung to a high end. Plus you can't really expect much of a low end phone

You can't when talking about features, but you can when talking about functions, if it's the same manufacturer and platform.

And whilst the S6 is dated, and now considered low end, it's the same age as the afore-mentioned HTC I'm pitching it against, that has the features in question. And it wasn't low end at that time, either.

The validity of criticism against the Samsung S6 compared to it's HTC rival isn't under dispute. Having tried both. The question is, does the latest Samsung fail against the latest HTC? Or has the gap closed..? * +

There is no screenshot.

Yes it's an S6 Active, so big battery and chunky plastic casing, but no curved-edge screen. * +

Just googled. It's power button and home key * +

Or you can turn on swipe palm screenshot but I found that pretty crap * +

Swipe twice from the top. You've got your grid of soft keys. What do you have? What does the S8 have?

I had screenshot. Not any more.
I had silent mode. Not any more.
I had screen rotate. Not any more.
I had mobile data on/off. Not any more.

On the home screen, I could tap the clock, and that would get me my alarms and stop watch.
Not any more. Now I have to dig out the little clock app soft key to access the clock

Really..?!

No cursors on the keyboard! Don't tell me, that's not Samsung's fault either..?

So is it just this S6 that's retarded, or does the S8 share any of these gems? * +
