    Google Wallet or Softcard?

    Earlier ITT, someone mentioned that there was no benefit to using Google Wallet or ISIS because both were slower than Apple Pay. Later, another person responded that they thought the ultimate vision was that all of these soft-wallet apps would one day replace plastic, and in short order the...

    Telephoto lens attachment for Note 4?

    Universal? Maybe for normal-sized phones. I'd be shocked if it fit.

    Galaxy Note 4 Verizon - HORRIBLE BATTERY LIFE

    What is your screen-on time? Since you're saying you always tend to get poor battery life, it could be to do with how you're using the phone. If you tap on "Screen", you can get some more detailed usage stats. You can get even more by tapping on the battery life graph. Screenshots of those...

    Galaxy Note 4 Verizon - HORRIBLE BATTERY LIFE

    That sounds like a huge pain. What are the returns we're talking about? I mean, the note 4 has a removable battery, so is there really a major benefit to trying to extend it's life a little longer in return for the inconvenience of always charging it? If the battery dies, it's not a huge expense...

    Galaxy Note 4 Verizon - HORRIBLE BATTERY LIFE

    Why should it be odd to be pleased with that? Comparing the Note 4 to the blackberry is silly; the blackberry has a bigger (non-removable) battery and doesn't have as much to power, so it's a no-brainer that it'll last longer. Regardless, while I wouldn't turn down the battery life of your...

    Telephoto lens attachment for Note 4?

    There are lens mounts on shapeways (3d printing website) for the Iphone. If highly requested, I'd imagine one may eventually be available for the note 4. You could always design or request one to be designed yourself, of course. Nowadays, If you can think it up, you can 3d print it. I know of...

    Mediocre Wi-Fi performance

    Re: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Wi-Fi performance sucks! Ah, makes sense. Is it because our magnetic field is interfering with the radio frequency?

    Mediocre Wi-Fi performance

    Re: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Wi-Fi performance sucks! Err...that's pretty bad news, isn't it? What does that mean for cases? Surely, cases cover the top of the phone.

    Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Unicorn Beetle Pro w/holster

    It rotates with quite a bit of effort. One might think it wasn't meant to rotate if they weren't told otherwise. I find it to be unwieldy on my belt, though, so I don't use it. Anyway, I got this case too, and it both looks and feels quite good. I popped out the screen protector that came with...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Smart Remote: Actually tried a piece of bloatware and love it!

    Re: Smart Remote: Actually tried a piece of bloatware and love it! I was going to uninstall it. I'll have to give it a shot.

    Note 4 disappointments?

    Speaker is in the same place as my s3 and s4. The placement has never seemed like a good idea, so I wonder why they haven't changed it yet.

    Note 4 What case you going for?

    Seeing as how I'm forever alone and haven't made a single call with my phone so far, I've decided to use my Spigen tough armor even though it isn't compatible with my VzW note 4. Can't effect my call quality if no one wants to talk to me! It isn't as bulky as expected, and I think the...

    Where Can I Get A Metal Home Button To Go Over My Phone's Home Button?

    I've read that, at some point there may be various services that allow you to log on using fingerprints instead of a password. Seeing as how bio-metrics are becoming a major trend, I don't find that to be too unbelievable for our near future. Failing that, it serves no purpose other than...

    Where Can I Get A Metal Home Button To Go Over My Phone's Home Button?

    The Note 4's home button is a fingerprint scanner...so...I have no idea how what you're saying would work.

    Has anyone asked if your Note 4 is an iPhone 6+?

    Yes. I've yet to get it to work. It's hard to find somewhere to test it out where I won't have to be embarrassed in front of a long line while I try to figure out how it works.
