I've only had it activated for a few hours, but battery life, signal quality, and speed are amazing so far. Only about 9GB usable out of the box. The VZW bloatware is kind of a bummer, but most of it can be disabled. No easy wireless charging mod sucks as well, but hey what ya gonna do? Home button logo doesn't appear to easily be removable. It feel to me as if it's sort of engraved into the button rather than a decal. It's not that noticeable after a while though. Loving the S-pen! It doesn't slide in and out very easily, but I guess that's what keeps it in there. The OEM Flip case (Marble White) is awesome so far as well. It comes attached to a replacement battery cover that ironically enough just has the "Samsung" logo near the top. No VZW branding whatsoever making the home button the only thing distinguishing it from the INTL version. What do you all think? Awesome phone assuming it's not a year before we see 4.2? I think so. Loving it.
