What’s your favourite smartphone
iPhone or Samsung?

I am a Samsung person.

iPhones are good, but at least Samsung make more affordable models for consumers on a budget.

And the Android OS is more flexible than iOS.

Samsung with Lineage OS, tho now that 15.1 is on the S5, it’s not really that good.

The S5 would have to be the best phone to put a ROM onto, also the notification light is really cool :grinning:

Samsung S5 all the way! Best performing phone I’ve ever owned.

Which bank do you use?
(more than choice if you have multiple accounts)

  • ANZ
  • Commonwealth
  • NAB
  • Westpac
  • Other bank
  • Building Society / Credit Union

Given the amount of regional banks/smaller banks/credit unions (ie not the big 4) and how popular they are, this poll really should be expanded.

Or expanded might be better. :wink:

I know I voted for Georgie but I do like her more then Sandra tbh… despite now living in an other state since I first watched her in 2014. Both excellent presenters but I don’t like the format of Ten News Sydney that much.

Do you use mobile payments (Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay)?

Only if I don’t feel like carrying my wallet with me for whatever reason. Nice to just be holding my phone / keys in my pockets and nothing else.

I was using Google Pay via my credit union but have found it far easier to use my card as Google Pay was failing a quarter of the time, which is enough to be annoying.

I use Samsung Pay… I was always sceptical about these NFC payment systems but it’s so damn convenient.

I use the Commbank app and NFC to pay for stuff, but only if I realise I’ve left my wallet in the car because I don’t want to get in the situation where I end up going to a place without an RFID card reader. 99.9% of the time I will pay with my card.

It also seems a bit awkward to say “I’ll pay with my phone” (though I’d imagine with uptake this will change).

I don’t get wanting to fumble with a phone when tapping a card is so easy.

Surprised the amount of Commbank users, I had a dollarmite account - but haven’t used them since shutting that when I was 12.

I chose NAB on the basis of the amount of fees - all the other major banks I looked at, and Bendigo Bank who I was with at the time, charged either an account keeping fee or per-transaction fees. Seems to still be the case.

What are people’s reasons for choosing their current bank?

In my case, only when I’ve accidentally forgotten my wallet at home.
