Wireless Android Auto now split screen for me Nice, been waiting for this. Don't know when the update occurred but wasn't there yesterday (USA) Galaxy S22 Ultra running AA 8.7.630264 on a 22 Kia Rio S 8" screen

It feels solid on the phone, it's thin, but to me doesn't feel cheap or flimsy. I love it more and more the more I use the phone, it's like a grippy skin.

I suppose you can. Feels too good to put one on this case though.

Got the dbrand grip case today. SOOOO much better and grippier than the Samsung leather. Finally I don't feel like it's about to slip out of my hands. Very nice texture.

Mine "shipped" on March 10, but was awaiting pickup for a while. Finally left the facility on Tuesday. On the way at last! Can't wait for some solid grip on my phone, been too timid with it thus far because of the weight and how slippery the leather case is.

I agree about the stress! Verizon was offering $1000 for my S20+ but it wasn't showing right when I was checking out for my S22U. So before I finished the purchase I chatted with a rep who confirmed for me (and noted on my account) that the trade-in offer was $1000. I've been burned before...

re: Komodoty alcantara I ordered the same one (and the fabric one) last Saturday. Got an email that they shipped today. No telling how long, but I'm looking forward to them

Been waiting an searching for fabric or alcantata/kvadrat cases for S22U. Finally found a few on Komodoty and ordered. Will come back when they arrive.

Don't know if this helps as it was a preorder, but I preordered the first day available. It was slated to come on release day; Friday, Feb 25, but it actually got delivered Tuesday, Feb 22. I imagine it's different now that it's been released, but yes, I got my phone earlier than the projected...

My backup and restore went great. I backed up through my Samsung account while still on the old phone, then the S22U automatically restored the watch when it connected, everything there. The only thing I had to do was reactivate all the Samsung Pay credit cards and select my wife as contact on...

My green S22U was out for delivery today and I changed the UPS delivery instructions to leave with a neighbor so she could sign for it. He actually rang my doorbell and tried to deliver it to my house. Luckily I got on the ring doorbell and told him to bring it to my neighbor's house. WTH UPS...

My UPS delivery says it will be delivered Monday, Feb 21 between 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm. It also doesn't say signature required. At 1.2 pounds, it doesn't seem like the trade-in box. We'll see... I ordered the green S22U 512GB

Just got my shipping notice today. The order says shipped and I have a UPS tracking number, but not in the UPS system yet. Verizon says 2 day shipping expected on Feb 25, but we'll see what UPS says once it's in their system.

Just got the leather case for the 22U from Samsung. It's not as soft and grippy as I'd hoped, more smooth and slippery. Really hoping I'll be able to find an alcantara or Kvadrat case. I love the cloth feel and it won't slip out of my hand or off my pant leg.

Verizon's giving me $1,000 for my S20+ (but that's allocated as account credit over 36 months, if I pay it off early I lose any credit not yet applied, so....)
