    UAG Monarch are they worth the 59.99?

    Simple answer: No. They are not worth the money. Are they just as good as OtterBox and LifeProof? Yes, but there are many other options that are just as good or better for half the price.

    Samsung Rugged Case is cheap and flimsy

    The rugged case was one of my favorites on the Note 9 so I ordered one for my new 10+. This thread has me worried. Hope it's just as good as I expect it to be.

    T-Mobile Pre-Order Thread!

    I see so many Aura Glows I'm thinking my Aura White will actually be the least common of all! I haven't had a white phone in a long time. I pre-ordered yesterday afternoon in the store and it'll be delivered tomorrow. That's fast!

    T-Mobile Pre-Order Thread!

    Many thanks to all of you on this thread. I was just able to get a $110 bill credit since I had accepted and paid $199 for my JoD Note 10+ Aura White 256 earlier today in-store even though I've been with TM for more than 10 years, have 10 lines, have been on autopay forever (so payment has never...

    T-Mobile Pre-Order Thread!

    Same here. Been with them that long as well and have 10 lines (family). Have autopay so payment is never late. $199 down on JoD.

    T-Mobile Pre-Order Thread!

    I don't see that happening with the removal of the the sd card slot, the removal of the headphone jack, the smaller battery.....truly the Note 9 is a better buy than the regular Note 10.

    Not happy with Note 10 rumors, should I just get another Note 9, just in case?

    Nope. I'll wait until there is no hole in the display. The Note 9 will be good enough until that happens.

    Best guess at Black Friday deals on Note 9?

    In my experience the best deals can usually be had on launch day or pre-order. T-Mobile had a $500 credit for trade-in of an older phone (I got it for an S7 Edge) plus a free headset worth $299 from Samsung. It'll be hard to beat even on Black Friday.

    poll: camera freezing?

    128 GB on T-Mobile. Take about 4-6 pics daily and not once has it frozen. I actually came in here to read about it as I had never known it was an issue.

    Perfect screen protector for the curved edge.

    Very minimal residue that came off easily with a cleaning cloth. Amazon is crediting my money. I got the 2 pack by the way and they both looked bad.

    What notch?

    But it has both a notch and a large chin. My X, my Essential and my 1+6 all had notches but they blended into the background soon enough. This notch is so large I can't help but keep staring at it.

    Anyone Switch to iPhone Max??

    Agreed. I gave my wife my iPhone X I had on JOD (she keeps her phone forever) so it'll get paid off and I got a Note 9 since T-Mobile gave me $500 off for an old S7 Edge I had in a drawer and Samsung gave me AKG over the ear headphones valued at $299 for preordering. Definitely a better deal...

    Perfect screen protector for the curved edge.

    Well I decided to take the plunge on a Whitestone Dome glass since I saw so many good reviews out there and I have to say that I was completely suckered into a piece of junk. Either other people are not as OCD as I am or I just got a bad batch but I need to see if I can get my money back from...

    How to disable bixby and bixby button SOLUTION

    Can you point me to another phone with an S Pen? I can't find one so if I want my S Pen I have to get a Note but I don't like Bixby despite having given it a chance. Truthfully I'm not really into any assistants, I wish I could just tap the settings in Bixby and remap that button to an app I...

    Anyone Switch to iPhone Max??

    I think Apple is pretty ridiculous with their new devices. I currently have a Note 9, a OnePlus 6, a Sony Xperia XZ Premium, and an Essential phone. I gave my iPhone X to my wife. The Galaxy Watch that I just got works wonderfully well with my Note 9 and any other Android phone I have in my...
