    Did you submit for your Pre-Order Bonus (256 GB SD / Gear Fit 2 / Netflix)? Post Here!

    Got my Gear Fit 2 small today! Unfortunately I don't have a Samsung (or android device for that matter) right now so I can't use it to its full potential. Right now I'm just using it alongside my Fitbit Blaze to compare the two.

    The worst return issue that no one has heard of

    I switched to Verizon from T-Mo and only lasted 4 months because they were so horrible, including phone customer service. One summer I got a second-hand BlackBerry 9930 to take on hikes and bike rides because I was using an HTC Rezound that had an extended battery case so it was a bit...

    iPhone users LOL

    You realize that they probably has to film for hours to get those few minutes they could use for the show, right?

    Fingerprint Scanner is WORTHLESS

    This was my experience at well. My Note 4 scanner was horrible and I disabled it within a few hours, even after I tried setting it up differently 2 or 3 times. My Note 7 works just as well as my iPhone 6s+ from the first time I set it up.

    are you leaving the Note 7? if so, where are you going?

    Re: How many are switching to 7 Plus or staying with Note 7? The 7+ looks nice. I actually came to the Note 7 from a 6s+ and while the 6s+ has been one of the best devices I've ever used, I miss the more feature-filled Note series. I'm staying with the Note for now, but may look back into...

    are you leaving the Note 7? if so, where are you going?

    The G2 was truly ahead of its time. I loved that phone and I started looking forward to how LG would progress. Then their mobile department totally derped out.

    With The Note 7 Recall... Does Apple Automatically Claim The 2016 Victory?

    I like the matte black more than the jet black. The jet black screams "iPhone 3G" to me.

    With the recall are you going to change colors

    No. I bought the coral blue because I wanted the coral blue. And it was even better looking in person. I love how in natural twilight it looks almost blurple.

    Note 7 went boom

    Same here, I loved that phone. My worst battery? The G4. Go figure.

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    Honestly I'd feel better about getting a new note later rather than sooner to make sure it goes through thorough testing. I wouldn't want a fixed battery only to have a different problem arise due to rushing the phones to market.

    Samsung Pay and the Recall...the forgotten detail

    The $20 Samsung card got me 2 boxes of fiber one bars, 2 bags of frozen fruit for smoothies, two bags of steamer veggies, and two large honeycrisp apples. It's food in my fridge I didn't have to pay for.

    are you leaving the Note 7? if so, where are you going?

    Back on my iPhone 6s+ right now. Glad I hadn't sent it away yet as part of my JUMP agreement. I was able to get the JUMP reversed and now I'm like 90% sure I'll get the Note again when the come available. I'll take a look at the new iPhones, and maybe the V20, but it's not likely that I'll...

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    Just got back from tmo. I was able to return my phone and go back to my iPhone 6s+ which I hadn't sent back yet as part of my JUMP agreement. The tmo rep called someone and had them cancel that JUMP upgrade out of their system. He said it might take a couple weeks for the refund of the taxes...

    The Galaxy Note7 has been recalled for battery issues

    I'm kind of getting the run around at tmo, but I don't blame them. I'm sure they're fielding a ton of questions and new situations so they don't have concrete protocols yet. I went to the store and they said I couldn't return my phone there and then since I had it shipped to me. They said I...

    Carrier Recall Thread

    Yes that's the unfortunate part. I've bought a Spigen case and a cable for my car charger. Luckily the case was on sale and I got the $20 Samsung Pay promotional gift card after I bought my $18 cable, so I'm not that much out of pocket. I'll still get a Note 7 updated unit. I just hope...
