    I checked and unfortunately the Tough Armor holster is out of stock (SKU HL72RP214STA) and no responses from the manufacturer yet. :(

    Encased Holster for Spigen Tough Armor... Not Available???

    Evening all. I was looking to get an S22+ (finally decided against the Pixel 6 Pro) and I was looking for a specific Spigen Tough Armor case and the Encased holster for the Tough Armor. I've used both Tough Armor and Encased holsters on my Note 4's and 8's and they are WONDERFUL! I love the...

    Is the Data Connection Issues Fixed??

    drvier8 Your experience doesn't lend me optimism about the 6Pro for the rural areas I live and work in (think rural areas past Winchester, VA). Since I tend to hold on for devices for 2-5 years, I'm not sure I could handle a device that has connection issues regularly.

    Is the Data Connection Issues Fixed??

    Thanks for that info. I live in the WV/VA areas that are already hilly to outright mountainous where some areas only have one cell tower every 10-15 miles. My Note8 has gotten along pretty well and has been consistent from my Note4 days of where I pickup and lose cell service. Being that...

    Is the Data Connection Issues Fixed??

    Good afternoon all! Last week Sprint/T-Mobile started calling me that they were updating towers in our area to all 5G and let me know that my families phones will no longer work in the near future. Currently we have Note 8 (me) and iPhone 8's for the others. T-Mobile is offering a free...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Actually switching is out of the option. Where I live, it's mostly in a cell black out area. Sprint has the most/best coverage as they have put 3-4 towers up in this county. AT&T is an option, with less coverage and only 2 towers in the entire county and far far less coverage than what I'd...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Sadly everything available on Amazon is used or refurbs. Nothing new for 2yr contracts with the Note 4 to be found from Sprint.

    No more Note 4's Available??

    If I had the spare cash to pay the full $299 price in this instance, I would. I admit considering AT&T selling theirs at $0 leaves me reeling a bit that $299 is way over paying. Being I run my own small business where literally every penny counts, I can't bring myself to pay over $199 for that...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    I didn't realize that about their data caps, but that does make sense, at least with roaming. Namely if Sprint has to pay excessive charges to the network the phone is roaming on. I have a friend who had sprint and moved to an area where the signal would go from 3g to roaming and back. His...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Actually a quick check on ebay searching for Note 4 Sprint shows starting prices in the $280 range going upwards to $700. If I find the $299 in store new price a bit ridiculous (esp when AT&T is selling theirs for $0 right now and the Note 5 is $249), to buy used on eBay for those prices would...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Maddening is right! Where I live Sprint has a business agreement with the local teleco to sell their products and thus have a priority for towers in the area. There is excellent LTE coverage by Sprint, although AT&T has one or two towers in the county and their service is OK. But switching...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Called Best Buy since they have a Note 4 available for $299 to see if they would price match, they said they do not price match contract based phones. That seems to be contrary to what I've seen others share on here...?

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Just got off the phone with Sprint and they are entirely out of stock of any Note 4's and do not plan on getting any more in. Boy were they pushy for wanting to sell me a Note 5 or an S6 Edge. The lady was kind of taken back that I refused either one of those because of the lack of SD card...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    That does sound weird. What's weirder, is that of the two places I've found the Note 4 here in the states is that it's still $299.99, IF it's in stock. One place had a mail in rebate which I'm never fond of while everyone else is out of stock and eliminating listings of the Note 4. I totally...

    No more Note 4's Available??

    Earlier today when searching various major websites regarding possibly purchasing a Note 4, there were hardly any Note 4's left to be found. Being that I have a Note 2 that is 8 months out of contract and waiting on the Note 5 specs (which I was severely under impressed with), I've been...
