Actually I'm still correct. The $250 off that Best Buy gives you is a down payment on the phone, not a recurring bill credit. Combined with the $450 I got for my S8+, that would equal to $700 off the phone as down payments, not as recurring bill credits. Yes, this does effectively lower the...

Not true in this scenario. The best buy deal acts as a down payment, not a bill credit. At any given time you can buy your phone out for the lower price as when you bought it.

They take the phone on site. No mail in required. I think this is a much better situation that mailing into Samsung because you don't have to worry about your phone being damaged during shipping or having any issues with the trade in verification - it's all done right there.

The best part about the Best Buy deal is if you have a Samsung phone to trade in as Best Buy honors the Samsung double trade in event right now. If you have an S8+, you get $450 for your trade in, stacked with the $250 off on Verizon, meaning you get the Note 9 for $300 on device payments!

Does this really work? Have you done it in the past or did you just do it now for the Note 9? If so, this sounds like an excellent way to take advantage of the BOGO.

So my wife and I recently purchased a second home and I'm trying to figure out the cheapest way to stream TV without having to pay for another Verizon /Comcast /whatever subscription. What I want to do us take my galaxy s8+ and stream the fios app to a TV since streaming is data free on my...

FHD+, simply because swiftkey still doesn't look right in WQHD+.

I'm still 50/50 on the subject. The S7 Edge was the first phone to ever have a case for me, only because it was so slippery on the edges - the S8+ is no where near as slippery to me. I have the Samsung Clear protective cover coming and I'll see if I like it - if not, I might just get a clear...

I think people aren't realizing the difference between the AOD clock and the lockscreen clock. The AOD clock can be changed to many different things, but the lockscreen clock (which is viewed when hitting the power button), cannot be currently changed without the help of re-theming the device.

So a couple things: Is anyone missing the clock widget that is displayed everywhere in the marketing shots? I don't have one weather widget at all. "security policy prevents connecting to unsecured networks" - this mess pops up like once a day and I see the phone try to connect to WiFi and...

Re: Note your approved Gear VR registration. How quickly did everyone get an email about the registration? I filled out the form 10 minutes ago and didn't get any sort of email acknowledgement that I did it.

I just spoke to the mobile manager at the Princeton store since my online preorder for instore pickup also says "Ready to Pick up." He said based on his info the preorder label that's attached to all the preorders printed and shows that it's there and ready, but they're supposed to be releasing...

Was the card replaced? Ie, you got another card with a new number? I know that American Express, in this instance, actually still leaves the old number open for recurring/trusted charges, such as a recurring phone bill, etc. It also still allows for credits to be placed back to the number...
