    Share your Note 9 home screen!

    Going with the clean look as always. Using blue and yellow as primary colors to go with the colors of the phone and the S-pen. Glass accents and a black background really makes the screen stand out. The twirling colors in the background is Amoled live wallpaper with blue, amber, yellow colors...

    Note9 pre-orders will get 15,000 Fortnite V bucks

    I'm not a gamer. If it's true I'll take the headphones. Better yet an SD card if they offer it again.

    Note9 pre-orders will get 15,000 Fortnite V bucks

    If you're a Note user, you should know the S-pen is docked inside the phone when not in use. That's where it get charged. Nothing lame about it, but your comment.

    What is it about the Note?

    Re: what is it about the Note? Well, actually the words in capital letters were from Samsung's official teaser for the NOTE 8.:D

    What is it about the Note?

    Re: what is it about the Note? I simply put it this way: With the Note, you don't just TALK - you actually do the ACTion! You don't take STEPs - you LEAP! You don't UPDATE - you INNOVATE! Instead of CLOSED horizons - you're OPENing unlimited boundaries! You're not a FOLLOWer - you're a LEADer...

    Note 8 pre-order 'freebies' - as usual, from Evan Blass

    Most cases allow for wireless charging to go through. Even tough cases as Otterbox, though I don't use one, I've read they don't have problems with wireless charging. Here's a good video demonstrating different cases for the S8+ https://youtu.be/LpIqdZidJqg

    If you don't care about getting 360 shots, i suggest you get the Gopro.

    Note 8 pre-order 'freebies' - as usual, from Evan Blass

    Edit: This site won't post an actual 360 photo. So what you below is rather a wide angle shot. This is an example of a 360 pic from the cam. Taken 8 at night so a bit dark. You can also use just the front or just the back camera, and of course 360 video or a time lapse video, or a live...

    Note 8 pre-order 'freebies' - as usual, from Evan Blass

    It is well worth the price point with the freebies. I got the 256 card last year and I already got the 360 cam as a bundle promo with the S8+. If you're planning to get the 360 cam and intend to use it, bear in mind you will also need an SD card for that. Don't have to be 256gb. If this is true...

    T-Mobile 600mhz network is live!

    It's not that they're targeting less popular areas, they can only deploy the spectrum in areas that are clear with the go ahead from the TV stations that were using the spectrum. Some stations may take some time to transfer frequency for their broadcasts.

    T-Mobile 600mhz network is live!

    Great! I'm pretty sure the upcoming Note 8 will support it right out of the box, at least the Tmo variant. I think the current S8/S8+ can support it as well since it's using the Snapdragon 835. It wasn't certified since there was no such network back then. Probably just need some updates and...

    Note 8 to Launch Sept 15th. Pre-order begins Sept 1st to 10th possibly.

    See the first post above. That's the translation.

    Pre-Order date?

    I have the S7E too and was going to wait for the Note 8. I fell in love with the S8+. I got a free line anyway, so got the S8+ but still kept the S7E as a trade-in for the Note 8. As for tablets, they gave me a free Tab A and my Note Pro 12" tab is still kicking.

    It's not about if it's going to work or not. It's been out for years. They're talking more about the placement of the FPS, like the S8/S8+, located at the back next to the camera, which most people find it awkward. Also there was the expectation the FPS would be embedded on the glass.screen itself.
