idk, I just have a few cases an Obliq, a generic clear TPU from Amazon, and a cheap ass case I got from AliExpress.
I wouldn't mind picking up an extra battery and battery charger since they were so useful on my V10 but the battery life on the V20 is better so I don't need that. As for generic accessories/stuff that works well with the V20: - Decent headphones sound bamf on this phone if you enable HiFi and are playing something that is decent quality. I have some Sony over-ear headphones that were ~$100 and they sound BAMF with Spotify on Extreme quality. - Dollar Tree selfie stick + tripod. Buy a dollar tree selfie stick and unscrew the phone mount from the top, throw away fgt stick. Then screw that onto any camera tripod and BAM phone tripod. Now you can take long exposure (up to 30 secs, not bad for a phone) shots with your V20. You can capture stars, light trails of traffic, do light painting, etc. with this. - USB-C goodies. I've tried a few USB-C things on my V20 and they all worked great. I tried an adapter that had 4x full size USB ports, I tried a straight USB-C > full size USB, and I tried a USB-C dock that had HDMI, Ethernet, and a couple USB port and that worked also. There are lots of adapters on Amazon with different combinations of ports and they're pretty useful for video-output, ethernet, plugging in mice/keyboards, usb sticks, etc. Kinda cool.

G6 and S8 are both going to be really slim on the bezels. Sammy is actually getting rid of the front capacitive buttons and fingerprint reader on the S8 and making the screens 5.8" and 6.2" without making the phone larger. Looks interesting except that the fingerprint reader is next to the camera instead of below it wtf. Hold you V10 or V20 and reach up to the right of the camera, is pretty awkward to reach that high.
---------- Post added at 08:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 AM ---------- Shitty thing about the G6 is that it won't get the newest processor because Sammy made some deal with Qualcomm. Samsung gets the entire first batch of processors. These new ones are smaller and use less battery but decently faster.

G6 is gonna use the same processor as the V20 I believe and this bish flies, no complaints.
Besides the fingerprint reader location, kinda liking the S8. Biggest things I disliked about samsung were the capacitive and physical front buttons. ---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 AM ---------- the rounded screen edge is pretty sexy on the G6 tho ---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ---------- G6: ---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ---------- and S8: dat clean buttonless front and odd fingerprint reader location

imo and the black Note7 was sexy. Want to see black S8. Dfw that 6"+ one that is probably overall smaller than a V10/20.

It's too bad the processor will be lower than the S8. Still beast though.

connected my V20 to a Dell WD15 USB-C dock. One plug got me keyboard, mouse, monitor, ethernet, and charging without installing anything on the phone. Shit just worked.

fak, should have plugged in speakers too, just to make sure they worked also. I assume they do since everything else did.
---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ---------- Tried this before using a normal usb 3.0 dock with an OTG cable on my V10 and everything worked except I needed to install the DisplayLink app and the framerate seemed a little lower. With USB-C it just works and seems pretty fast. Next time I'll plug in speakers and try a 60fps youtube video and see what happens.

more or less, need to figure out which keyboard buttons act as home/back/recents
also, anything that requires pinching you have to go back to the screen otherwise seemed to work pretty damned well

Been playing Fire Emblem: Heroes (new F2P Android/iOS game from Nintendo). It's actually pretty damned fun.

Sprint is suing RingPlus to smithereens. r+ dies on Feb 11. Gotta get a new carrier. Well, it's been a great ride...I haven't had a monthly cell phone bill for like 5 years, and I've had an army of phones with service.
Kinda want to abandon Sprint towers because fuck Sprint for suing r+...but still nothing will beat the price of Sprint MVNOs (seem there are some new free or near-free ones out there) and phones (and I still have my LG with all dat batteries and spare screens).

A coworker here uses Ting and says they are decently priced and you can get a Sprint SIM from them or a TMo SIM so your phone options would expand dramatically while still being able to use the ones you have.
Not sure how the price compares to R+ though.
