Thought so - about the change. I noticed the resolution had reduced, and the pictures were a bit grainy and blurred. I'd recommend Samsung Galaxy S8 or S9 if you don't mind their cost. They have beautiful cameras and a wider range of options to choose from.

Hmmm...I did change phone. Was using Sanshng Galaxy S5 all along.....but the Network upgrades was too much for the phone! Got a Galaxy J7 Prime for a visiting friend...which I planned to use after the visit...you should know how that went! Went to get another...was told there was the newer version..the better Galaxy J7 Star. Got it....don't like it. Doesn't give as many options to control the camera settings.

I'm sorry if I am meddling into something that doesn't concern me.
You opened this thread January 2017 and this is January 2019. The thread still says this is a vacation, have you been on vacation for 2 years.

Apologies, I haven't gone through thread though!

NYC....Harlem......another colddd day in the city. I'm more into buildings...this area is designated a historic landmark... so pretty much unless a building is condemned for structural problems/gutted by fire etc...it would be sooo difficult to get a permit to make changes. Building on the left...that's a school...the playground is on the roof...glass enclosed...and has a gym/basketball court on the first floor....glass enclosed and sound proof....a public school.
Looking out of Convent Ave into St Nicholas Ave...some buildings built since the 1800's.
6 storeyed building... built since 1902... classy to date... the first coop to be owned by Blacks in NY. The lobby is very classy.... quality everything...from furniture to floor tiles...definitely not of modern times.

NYC... past few days the weather been brutal ...wayyy colder than normal..and persistent. Left water in the truck....after 2 hours in the cab with heat on... still almost all ice. In these times you just envy these guys with their high center of gravity ride any storm vehicles.But ...is sooo good right after the snow when I can chill my Power Malt!
