    Minimalist cases with kickstand for 10+

    The ESR metal kickstand case is great, WITH one exception - barely any lip protection for the screen. I've been using this case for a week and while the back and sides protection is great along with the metal stand being the best I've ever used the big con is with less than 0.9mm lip protection...

    Switched back to Nova

    The folder preview of just four icons is good for my old eyes, I hate how IPhone shows 9 looking like grains of sand in the folder previews.

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    Yeah, same thing happened to me, I got the same email, my BB account shows refund in progress, AT&T account shows my old phone to upgrade, I'll see if it gets resolved by the 10 day refund mark - I'll take it as me being an AT&T plan subscriber for a couple of decades as a "thank you for your...

    Tempered Glass Note 10+

    I went through two different brands of tempered glass screen protectors that used the same technique as Whitestone (wasn't trying to pay $50 for just one screen protector), here's my experience. The first being the Donwell tempered glass screen protector two pack which while it applied the...

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    They were so busy I'm sure they messed up somehow, when the activation with the included SIM card failed I recommended they swap the SIM with my old phone and it worked but when they tried to check it out it would not go through the system so they took the pre-order sticker off the box, said...

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    Anyone else that pre-ordered through BB and picked up their phone on pickup day get an email stating your order has been canceled due to non pickup? As everyone knows BB had crazy issues on pickup day so they just swapped out my SIM card and it worked and I left with my phone but they never...

    Tempered Glass Screen Protectors (minus fingerprint sensor)

    I had ordered the Donwell tempered glass screen protector for the Note 10+ and used it for a while but I'm going to return it due to it not working with the fingerprint reader. Beyond the fingerprint sensor not working exerything else with it WAS perfect full screen and curve coverage, great...

    The Dongle...

    I got this one for the Note 10+ since I do a lot of driving in rental cars for work trips, been using it all week and it works great, no sound problems and the phone fast charges while connected to the car charger I use, I actually find it better to use than to have to plug in separate charging...

    My messenger app is not making notofication sounds

    This happened to me over the weekend, Took me a day of wrecking my brain to figure it out, you have to go under both the "general" and "new notification" settings under messages and select the specific notification sound (if you look at the screen shot it says "sound and pop-up)" while my...

    Anyone going to look at the revamped Fold?

    I'll check out the next revision in 2021 when they will more than likely merge the foldable functionality into the S or Note series, as of now its more a novelty phone to feature the technology first then refine it for the major series later, anyone remember the Galaxy Round, which the curve...

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    I had the same issue, I told them just try and put my SIM card from my old AT&T Note 8 into the Note 10+ and bam, activated with no issues, they then did the rest of the people that were waiting that had the same issue. Did my good deed for the day lol.

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    At BB waiting to pick up my preordered AT&T Note 10+ now, had received that issue message but wasn't trying to stay on the phone for 4+ hours so just came in, the issue is still there and the rep is on the phone playing the waiting game to resolve it, did get a nice Galaxy Note 10+ Tshirt for...

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    The messages everyone is receiving from BB about a problem with the order is because they are having issues getting the IMEI numbers into the carriers, I called the number in the text and talked to a rep after about 20 minutes, they are now working on my phone and account and have me on hold...

    Insurance? Yes or No + if Yes, with who?

    Food for thought, if there is a best buy Geek Squad Samsung repair specialist in a store near you and you have their warranty plan they will do cracked screen repairs for $60 for the Note 8/9/10s and S 8/9/10s

    What 3D objects will you scan with the depth camera?

    I'm going to scan a few of my old 3d prints to turn them into 3d printer printer templates then reprint them for accuracy compared to the originals, I'm gonna put the note 10+ through its tests to see if it's worth using for 3d printing models.
