    Thinking about switching from iPhone to Note 9. Should I wait?!?

    Been looking to make the change to the Note 9. As much as I love the simplicity of the iPhone, I really like the allure of going back to Android and the customization. Plus, I’m a note taker and the s-pen would get it’s work! All that said, I’m tied in to the Apple ecosystem pretty good. I know...

    Possible iPhone convert

    Don't forget there's also the web based "deregister" apple site for iMessage too.

    Possible iPhone convert

    ( this was meant as a reply...sorry!) I made the switch, or at least am in the process! lol! Came from the 7+ and apple watch. Had a Note 5 for about 4 months then went back to the iphone. So far I'm loving the Note 8! Will detail that in another post. However, as for the watch "replacement", I...

    Best Note 5 folio case

    Looking for a solid folio case. I've seen the casemate, and to be fair it's exactly what I want. Trying to decide on the $60 price point. Am I missing something similar that's about half that? Have done a pretty good search. I like the casemate because it has a "window" for an id along with card...

    S2 with iPhone

    I know Samsung mentioned they would be rolling out the ability to use the S2 w/iOS. I haven't seen anything else since CES. Anyone see any updates since? Loving my Note 5, but have a 6+ as a backup and wouldn't mind playing around with the combo.

    Note 5 still a good buy?

    I just switched from an iPhone 6+ a few weeks ago. LOVING the Note 5. My situation was I had to add another line to the family. The thing that did it for me was doing it at Best Buy. I was able to get the Gear S2 sport watch at no cost as well as a $200 Best Buy gift card. I had a Note 2 a few...

    Stock 4.3 ROM or flash it

    Just upgraded my Note 2 to 4.3. I'm fairly techy but have never flashed a rom before. Curious if I should flash from the Samsung "stuff" to a clean android rom? Would love feedback and experience. Thanks!

    SIM card needed for 4.3 update?

    Thanks gang. I should've clarified. I don't have a sim in right now as it's my backup and I don't use it over cellular/mobile. I'm strictly using it over wifi when I use it. So, I'm thinking I have to add the sim and activate it in order to update it. A bit of a hassle, but sounds like the...

    SIM card needed for 4.3 update?

    Right now my note 2 is my backup device. That said, do I need to have it active on the AT&T network in order to get 4.3? I checked it for the update just now and got the no update available. Sort of bummed...
