    Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 Nook

    I just picked up the Nook version today. I LOVE the form factor, and the performance is excellent. I am a little disappointed in the screen though, I seem to be very sensitive to pentile screens (I know lots of people don't care) and at times this one screams out at me. Other times it's fine - I...

    Tab S2 Android 5.1.1 OTA update is out for US version SM-T810

    I just purchased the Tab S2 8.0 Nook edition. 5.0.2 and no update available. If the Nook variant is going to be behind or get screwed on updates, I'll return it and get the regular version. Which would be a shame, because I got a nice 10% discount from Barnes and noble!

    Galaxy Note Pro 12.2: Logitech Keyboard Case

    Re: Logitech Keyboard Case I picked one up yesterday from Best Buy! I was in for something else, and to my surprise there was one just sitting there! The keyboard is LOVELY. My only criticism is, I wish it was backlit. Second criticism - closing and opening the case does NOT sleep/wake the...

    Galaxy Note Pro 12.2: Logitech Keyboard Case

    Re: Logitech Keyboard Case The Zagg COVER-FIT one is in stock at some US Best Buys. I'm not sure if you're in the US or not. I'll be heading to a Best Buy tonight to check it out.

    'I've Ordered a Nexus 5' Thread! (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    I think you're right. Maybe the stock situation improved, at least with the white. I guess they want to leave the estimates at 2-3 weeks to cover themselves. Don't want to over promise until they have a more solid understanding of their inventory flow. Anyway, my nexus has now been picked up by...

    'I've Ordered a Nexus 5' Thread! (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    I ordered a white 32GB yesterday morning, with a wait time of 2-3 weeks listed. Much to my surprise today, about 10 minutes ago, I got a shipping email from Google, with UPS tracking number! I'm shocked and surprised to say the least! The tracking number just says "label created" which is...

    Is the Droid 4 screen pentile or not?

    Hi all, Does anyone know if the Droid 4 screen is pentile or not? I haven't been able to get an absolute confirmation of this. Most articles have described it as "LCD" or "LCD-TFT" which led me to believe it was NOT pentile. I thought pentile and LCD or LCD-TFT were mutually exclusive, but...

    Extended battery door doesn't fit quite right?

    Thanks! I'm guessing they're probably all a little like that then, and the first one I had was just a bit worse. It's disappointing though, as the standard door doesn't do it. Oh well.....

    Extended battery door doesn't fit quite right?

    Hi all, I purchased the extended battery from a Verizon store yesterday (got the $25 deal, yay!) and whilst the battery itself seems fine so far, the battery door which comes with it doesn't seem to fit quite right. The first door I got was slightly scratched on the left-hand (USB/HDMI) side...

    The Official Battery Life Thread

    Re: YIKES, on battery life! An amendment to my comment about the whine: I'm noticing it more now, it's definitely there. I'm not sure if it's a dealbreaker for me. It's not noticeable at all whilst music is actually playing, but I hear it once the sound ends, followed by a faint pop a few...

    The Official Battery Life Thread

    Re: YIKES, on battery life! Got my phone yesterday, went back and purchased the dock in the evening. I charged it all night to 100% and took it off the charger around 8:30 AM. It was down to 90% within minutes, without touching it. When I got to work after 9:00 AM it was around 80%. I...

    My Sensation 4G Gets Unbelievably Hot, 110F+

    I'm experiencing a similar phenomenon. My sensation is completely cool whilst charging, or idle, but if I pick it up and start using it, its noticeably warm after a little as a couple of minutes. After a few minutes, the temperature is between 105-110F and its uncomfortable to hold - not...

    Battery Indicatory stuck (possibly keyboard dock related)

    Hi all, I got a Tab 10.1 last weekend and have been very impressed and happy with it until the last few days, when I purchased the keyboard dock. Firstly, it would not work properly with the dock (went into clock stand mode, and keyboard wouldnt register) until I rebooted the tab. Anyway, that...

    Phone Acting Strange Since 4G Outage

    I'm not having anything weird text-wise, but I have noticed 4G data signal appearing spottier than usual, and even a couple of occasions where data has disappeared completely, and only a reboot would bring it back. In addition, my phone has started behaving very badly as far as battery is...
