    This phone is so much more prone to micro scratches

    You seem a little hostile about your perfect phone. Other people also have a sufficient IQ to think through whether they're doing something different. In my case, i've done nothing different than with my previous phones. Even same jeans, washed as regularly as before. Either I've got an early...

    This phone is so much more prone to micro scratches

    My point was that I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary than i have with any of my previous Samsungs...yet this one is scratched and my past ones were not. Although...I recall my Note7 did sustain a few scratches before it was returned. I think it was either same generation or previous...

    This phone is so much more prone to micro scratches

    I am in SHOCK at how easily this thing scratches. I've never dropped a phone and cracked the screen (knock on wood)...so I would GLADLY take the scratch resistance over shatter resistance. I can't find a good glass screen protector (not gonna do this edge-only adhesive crap anymore) and i...

    Anyone having lag or stutter issues?

    I just changed the animations back to 1.0x. I also force stopped Facebook to see if that makes a difference. (I also wiped the cache partition too.) So far it's been a little bit more responsive. What IRKS me though is here I am having to force stop apps like Facebook on a $850 smartphone.

    OK I'm at my wit's end regarding finding a good screen protector

    I was just logging on here to complain about the same thing. I've had the phone for about 3 weeks now...and I've tried 3 different glass screen protectors. ALL OF THEM GARBAGE. I ordered Yootech...and it ended up being a static-cling type, not the film applied with liquid like i loved on my...

    Note 7: I got my replacement! Thread

    Same here...no green battery indicator. On Sprint. Checked for updates too. (none) I also went to Samsung's IMEI checker...and it said my phone was clear. SO...is this a Sprint thing? No green battery indicator?

    Note 7 - This lag is unfreakingbelievable

    Re: This lag is unfreakingbelievable I've gone back to my Note5...and i gotta tell you...IT'S WAY SMOOTHER than my Note7 was. And I even tried returning my first Note7 hoping I got a defective one. NOPE...the lag was real. I did everything people have suggested doing in the forums here...and...

    Best Buy Note 7 Recall Thread

    I went to BB this afternoon and they told me it's still several weeks before they get replacements. In the meantime...after seeing the news article this morning about the guy's Jeep in FL going up in flames b/c of his Note7...i'm going to go back to my Note5 and wait! What I DON'T WANT is a...

    Stuttering while playing Music/Podcasts

    So...exchanged my Note7 for a new one. The stuttering happened a few times...but not nearly as bad as the other unit. I have a feeling Samsung invests more time making the Exynos version a little more fluid than the Snapdragon.

    Stuttering while playing Music/Podcasts

    Ok...I'm a long-time Note owner (ever since the N2). While I didn't like the battery life on the N5...everything else was pretty much perfect. Never experienced slowdown or lags. I upgraded to the N7 back on launch day, and since then i've been experiencing lots of stuttering when streaming...
