Is this the end of Android fragmentation?

@johnhooks mine still worked with the outer plastic broken in 4 spots around the edge, big chunks out of the back cover and the back cover peeling up at two corners. The screen shattering was the coup de grâce.
Edit: buy a case people, they suck but they pay off
I have this one, but it ended up being too big. You can get an extended battery to put in it (I have it but it charging takes forever with it).

I had that case for my LG G3. Loved it.

@johnhooks I never put a condom on mine as I like wireless charging a lot. Now I have a slim hard plastic shell on the note5, no regrets.

Ya wireless charging/NFS payments definitely don't work in it.

NFS payments? I had no idea. We've been doing iSCSI transactions all of this time.

The note5 does with the super charger (9v usb one) and their slick higher amperage wireless charger. The 9v gives it enough range to punch through the case. Gets real hot so I only suggest it for top ups (60% or more to full)

Up here we're demo'ing XFS contactless with RA one-dee Five encryption
It automagically backs up the transaction record so you don't need backups.

On a side note I used my phone for an NFC payment at Subway the other day. You would have thought I had cockroaches coming out of my eyes. The girl stared at me and said "I didn't know you could do that!! How does that work!!??"
We live in a very different area haha.

Around here people are still complaining about how the chip + signature stuff is too hard.

Gah I'm jealous
We've got bonk to pay debit cards but none of the phone wallet apps will touch Canukistan
-
I think the whole CurrentC nonsense borked a lot of areas over. Does anyone actually pay with that junk?
-
@johnhooks There is no way I would use CurrentC. I'm not letting merchants use an ACH payment from my account, I always use a credit card purchase that way there is at least some fraud protection with it.

It's absolutely pointless without the PIN portion - so yeah.. it's to hard!

Yep, you'll never see me using a debt card - someone steals your pin, you are never seeing that money again!

Don't keep all your money in your debit account. That is what I do. I can transfer money in from the online portal as needed.

But I just use a normal CC and don't worry about it at all. As for paying that bill, I can do an electronic transfer from my bank to the CC - done.
I'm never worried about fraud or do I have enough money IN the account to cover something.
