    Verizon Pre Order

    I also am looking to trade in both my wife's and my Note 4's during the Verizon promotion. No where in the original promotion info stated on the site did it mention anything about lower amounts depending on whether it was an upgrade or a new line activation. The only qualifications it said...

    Is the Note 7 worth upgrading to from the Note 4?

    Re: Note 7 or stick with Note 4? I bought the Note 4 for function over flash, and although I agree that there are some compelling new features with the Note 7, the amount of pluses just don't overwhelm the minuses for me to spend over 800.00 on the 7. Water resistance, camera and HDX video are...

    Where did my settings button go when I got the new 4 update (they aren't where they used to be)?

    I believe they are talking about the hardware menu "button". It changed functionality with ICS and became the way to access the recent apps/task manager. Even under ICS though, in some apps, if long pressed, it brought up a settings/options menu in some older apps. It appears that Samsung...

    Two in our house are now updated successfully. No issues so far but will give it a day or two to "settle in".

    Samsung pay in Note 4?

    If your on Verizon, Samsung Pay might not even make it to the Note 5! Verizon Wireless won’t be a part of Samsung Pay - SamMobile

    The first note I won't buy? (all discussion about lack of microSD and removable battery must go here)

    Re: Are you gonna buy the Galaxy Note 5? We were holding out on upgrading our Note 3's to 4's to see how the Note 5 evolved. But after months of rumors about how one "advantage" over another that the Note line had were going away, and then watching that boring, lackluster online presentation...

    Good article on why Samsung (and other companies) are getting rid of MicroSD Cards

    I, as well as many others, have considered the Note series more than just a productivity/business category phone, but more a "swiss army knife" device that no other manufacturer could match. So over the past years, the Note has become my "all in one" device, not only as I run my business on a...

    Will the Note 5 have removable battery and storage?

    Re: Will you upgrade to Note 5 if it doesn't have SD slot? Short answer, No, we will not be upgrading to the Note 5 from our Note 3's if the SD card option is no longer available. Most likely will grab a couple of Note 4's once it is confirmed that Samsung is parting ways with a couple of the...

    Forbes calls S6 sales so far "Disastrous"

    Having been a Samsung "family" for quite a few years now, I for one believe there may be some truth to this article. From tablets to phones to even TV's, we purchased the Samsung line of products because of the "features" they offered vs. their competitors. But at this point, we have not only...

    This is 20 bucks on Amazon, safe to order?

    I cannot say for sure however, I would bet that with the 2 year contract requirement attached to that "20 bucks" pricing that you would lose your current UDP because you would be technically changing contracts instead of just renewing what you already have. You would most likely have to buy the...

    On the GS6. What's more of a deal breaker for you, no removable battery or no SD card?

    Not crazy about either omission, but if I had to choose it would have to agree with the majority in that no SD card slot would make me look elsewhere. I had been considering an upgrade from my Note 3 to the S6 but now I at the very least may wait to see if they do the same to the Note 5. I use...
