    When does Samsung restock storage variants?

    Yes, I know. My question was if the RAM management in the higher storage variants is somehow better because of more storage, or if it also depends on the apps a user installs, as well.

    When does Samsung restock storage variants?

    I was going to pull the trigger on a 256GB Titanium Violet S24 Ultra through the Shop Samsung app, but there's no "Get it by date" for the option. The 512GB option is available, however. 512GB's is way more storage than I need. How long does it take Samsung to restock? On the other hand, if I...

    Deals for those with no trade ins.

    I snagged my 256 GB Phantom Brown S21U and the S Pen off Samsung.com on April 30th with an expected delivery of June 1st. Granted, I will be trading in my S10+, so I did get the $450 trade in value off, but I was also lucky enough to purchase at a time they were offering a $50 instant rebate in...

    For those that have the Encased Falcon

    I've seen reviewers on YouTube claim that the Falcon case is a cheaper OtterBox Defender/Pro alternative. Is that true? From what I can tell, the outer shell is a hard PC as opposed to the silicone cover of the Defender cases. I do like the fact that it looks like it has a substantial lip all...

    For those that have Samsung exclusive colors, where does it say that yours is manufactured?

    I ordered my 256 GB Phantom Brown S21U on April 30th, with an expected delivery date of June 1st. I notice that Samsung phones are manufactured in different countries, be it Vietnam, Korea, etc. If you have one of the exclusive colors, where was yours manufactured? Do you have a preference as to...

    Recommended Tempered Glass screen protector?

    I have my S21U on order and bought the amFilm TGSP to go with it. Installation seems simple enough, but I appreciate that it comes with the weighted cylinder to place over the fingerprint area (which is also stamped) to ensure that it has no issues registering prints. I plan on installing it...

    Which case has the most protection for the sides of the S21U?

    My Phantom Brown 256 GB S21U is expected by June 1st. While I wait for the Loopy Case https://www.loopycases.com/products/loopy-galaxy-note-20-ultra?variant=37259650072759 to be released for the phone, I'm looking for a case that has the most protection for the sides of the screen as well as...

    Did you get a Samsung exclusive color? Please share your pics!

    My favorite phone colors to this day remain Raspberry Rose, used by LG for the V30, and the Twilight color of the Huawei P20 Pro. I hope Samsung releases similar colors at some point.

    Did you get a Samsung exclusive color? Please share your pics!

    I ordered a 256 GB Phantom Brown Ultra on Friday, just because it's a nice unisex color and I'm just bored of the standard black, blue and silver/grey phones. It's expected by June 1st, so I'm gathering accessories in the meantime. I like that it looks almost taupe in indoor light, but in...

    Where can one get replacement tips for the S21 Ultra's S Pen?

    I ordered an unlocked S21Ultra in Phantom Brown and S Pen direct from Samsung on Friday. While I wait, I'm trying to get accessories for it, including replacement tips for the pen. Does anyone know where I can get legitimate tips? Will tips made for past Note S Pens work, or will I need ones...

    I ordered a US unlocked 256GB S21 Ultra in Phantom Brown with the S Pen on Friday. It's expected by June 1st, so I'm now gathering accessories. I have the amFilm UV TGSP on order, and I'm waiting on the release of the Loopy Case...

    Anyone else on T-Mo still stuck on the February update?

    I ordered the 256 GB S21 Ultra in Phantom Brown with the S-Pen yesterday. While I wait, this S10+ I'm using on T-Mobile is still stuck on the February update. Is this a known issue? I also notice that images and videos take a while to load or play while on WiFi. When I toggle WiFi off, images...

    Ordered a S21U 256 GB. A few questions...

    I purchased the 256 GB S21Ultra in Phantom Brown and the S-Pen just now. I'll be trading in my current S10+, of course, but for a grand total of $860 with NYS sales tax included, that's a hard deal to pass up. I've never had a phone with over 128 GB of storage, so I want to know how much is...

    Wireless Earbuds Advice

    Since I have to adjust to using wireless Bluetooth earbuds for when I upgrade to the S21 Ultra, I went to Best Buy yesterday and picked the Anker Soundcore Liberty 2 Pro up. They were on sale for $99, but I ended up paying $137 with 2 years of Geek Squad protection included. While I like the...
