    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    Me too. It's 5 mins away. I was told I couldn't do this in-store. Anybody take care of this issue at their local BB?

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    I believe it's because they are not authorized to release that inventory...as it is in-store. As impatient as I am, I can wait one more day.

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    I've been on hold with BB for 2hrs and 20 mins. I did speak to someone for about 2 minutes. That person then transferred me to another hold line. I'm getting a bit frustrated. It would be nice to get a little info on how long my wait time is going to be. Sprint phone for me. Looks like there was...

    Pre-ordering with Best Buy

    I got the same info. I am also on hold for the back office. They did say my phone was in-store and would be ready for P/U tomorrow, once I talk to back office.

    Things you've discovered on Note 8?

    I'm just a day late and a dollar short again..;-) Glad you got it figured out. I now use "Should I Answer" app. It doesn't allow blocked numbers to get to voicemail. If you block a number, your phone basically picks-up/hangs-up in a split second.

    Odd S-pen behavior

    I would take it in. That doesn't sound like a calibration issue.

    Odd S-pen behavior

    Or a case with a magnet? If it's in a case, take it out and see if you still have the issue while the case is off.

    Note 7 or Note 8

    I would not have upgraded to the Note 8. I really loved the Note 7. That being said, the Note 8 is an awesome device. Now that prices for a top end device like the N8 are near $1k (more expensive than many laptops), and there are no subsidies being offered by carriers, I think it's likey I'll...

    Samsung freebies, which did you choose and how did you submit it?

    Ordered the camera. It is set to be delivered today! That is, whenever FedEx wants to show up. They're a bit erratic in my area.

    Bixby?

    It's young, and not very intuitive yet. It also has issues understanding/pronouncing many words. I'm hoping they keep making improvements, but right now it's WAAAAY behing Google and Siri...Cortana too.

    AOD Burn In Concern

    I never use AOD. Actually, I find it rather annoying. So I shut it off. It saves a bit of battery, and I won't have to worry about any burn-in.
