Absolutely, I have been using the Tech21 cases for years. They have customized cutouts for all necessary connections and the S-Pen. The absolute most important aspect of the Tech21 cases is the fact that it has a material called "Flexshock" (formerly called D3O) which is a shock absorbing...

Short answer to OP's question: Hell no. This is the best phone on the market, best phone ever. Charges faster, runs faster, battery lasts longer. You name it - winner winner chicken dinner.

There are many reasons why the Note 7 is the best phone extant.

Because I am self-employed in the wholesale grocery business and use the stylus every day, throughout the entire day, (to write orders, merchandise being offered to me for sale, etc) I have to have a stylus. But either way, I was so hooked on the Note 7 before the recall that there is no way I...

Since I was displeased with the trade in allowance being offered for my mint condition Note 5 (literally like new) I just decided to keep it for my back up. I have to have a back up for my business and because I must have a stylus for business reasons (taking orders and writing notes) it makes...

Quite frequently.

Same here, at least the phone always indicates that it is fast charging. However, I also have a Samsung Wireless Charger S (rectangular - bought last year) which is NOT a fast wireless charger and the strange thing is that the phone always shows the same number of minutes to full charge whether...

Only the newer chargers with the "Adaptive Fast Charging" logo on the charger will even stand a chance of fast charging, the other required element is a heavy duty, fast charging cable with enough copper (heavy enough wire). For consistent fast charging both elements are required but without...

Re: Anyone going to ditch Note5 for the S7? LOL - No way! Not if it were half price. I have to have an S Pen for my business now. Some of the action notes I found from weeks before I was able to transform into big sales that yielded profits enough to pay for the device several times over...

Re: what do YOU use the s pen for? My thoughts exactly.

Re: Note 5 battery life sux There is definitely something haywire with the OP's phone or settings. I use mine in business, frequently for 9 to 11 hours a day, phone, email, etc. One charge per day and haven't gone below 40% yet, mostly 50%.

Re: what do YOU use the s pen for? A device without an S Pen would be a "deal breaker" for me - No S Pen, No thank you.

Re: what do YOU use the s pen for? I am self employed in the wholesale grocery business. Occasionally, I receive orders from restaurants by phone and jot them down as action memos. Also, and most importantly, vendors will call me with good deals and I note the item, price and other details...

Try reversing the prongs on the wall adapter, in other words, pull the AC adapter out of the wall reverse the "polarity" (flip the plug orientation it's not really "polarity") and it will fast charge every time. The reason you are likely having problems is that you need a heavier gauge...

Re: Adding and using a ringtone I have a Ringtones folder and any ringtone that I have copied into that folder have thus far showed up in my list of available ringtones. My ringtones are .mp3
