I love it! It's a great phone.

So, after 2 kits and 4 attempts, I finally got my Whitestone applied. I would recommend taking time with the application, making sure that everything is fully level, and doing several dry-runs before actually attempting to do it. Also, carefully remove the top tray after dropping the screen...

The WD40 did make it non-sticky and basically turned it into a rubber-cement-like gel. I scratched a bunch of the goo off, but I wasn't going to get all the gunk off of it without a razor blade and a lot of time (and I probably would have managed to scratch the hell out of it in the process...

Well, no luck with the WD40, so I had to order another Whitestone. I'm glad I kept the extra wipes, tube of adhesive, and other stuff from the first kit, because I needed it on this one (due to my incompetence, lol). I had to remove it twice and begin again because of issues. First time, the...

I'll pick up a can tonight and try it. Hopefully it will work and I didn't scratch the protector when I was trying to rub the adhesive off yesterday.

Ugh, I screwed up the install and didn't realize it until I did the first curing and took the phone out of the tray! Have to get a new one, unfortunately, even though I got it off the phone without breaking it. I couldn't get the semi-cured adhesive off. Everything went okay, but the...

Sounds like a plan, then! I'll install my Whitestone screen protector, do the switch, and then go visit AT&T.

I ordered it on Monday evening, and it's supposed to arrive tomorrow.

When I got the Note 7, I had to get a new one, since the Note takes a nano-sim and the S5 has a micro-sim. Pretty sure the Note 8 is the same way.

I ordered the unlocked one, since I'm not sure I'm going to stay with AT&T.

I ordered directly from Samsung, for the first time ever, since they had the trade-in deal. It should be here tomorrow, and I'll be sending them my S5. I have some somewhat stupid questions, as I've never traded in a phone before and have always had the AT&T or Best Buy guys set the phone up...

I haven't gotten a Mate 9 yet, but was looking at cases in expectation of possibly getting one. If you want a leather case, Noreve makes great ones, and they've got three cases available for the Mate 9. One is a vertical flip case, one a wallet-flip case, and one a rear shell. Of course...

I'm waiting to see what the Huawei Mate 9 reviews look like when it comes out. Supposedly, it's going to look a great deal like the Note 7. I was going to go ahead and get the S7E if they are bringing it out in blue, but I have a hard time paying full price for a phone that's almost a year...

I'm considering buying an unlocked international version of the pink gold 64GB Note 5. I've never bought an international version of a phone before, so I'm not sure if there's anything I should be aware of beforehand that might surprise me. I've got AT&T, so it should work, but I'm a little...
