    Not happy with Note 10 rumors, should I just get another Note 9, just in case?

    I use my phone for business, and it does everything I need plus some. I don't see anything of value to me in any version of the Note 10 that I don't already possess in the Note 9. The 5G is not in enough places to make it of value except for the very few. They have a lot to do to fully...

    Anyone antsy for the Note 10? Ready to switch? I'm bored

    I love my Note 9 It does everything I want and more. Whenever I "get bored" I go to Android central Note 9 forum and learn more. It's got more storage than my laptop. All I do is download, review, sign and return contracts in pdf format. Maybe the occasional PowerPoint presentation or...

    Bored with my Note9...

    I wouldn't consider switching my Note 9 for anything without a stylus. I use the stylus everyday. At best buy when I was trading in my Note 3, years ago, the guy was surprised at the number of notes I had, and said most Note users don't use the S-pen much. WHAT??? Why have a Note if you...

    Regrets

    The short answer no; The long answer: I loved the 7 until they disabled it. I put action notes from the 5 on it to reclaim the Note 7 from the toy Samsung made it back into the business device it should be. Then they refunded my $ and gave me the 8 for $425, I got the unlocked version which...

    How long does everyone anticipate keeping the Note 9?

    I agree, by purchasing a cutting edge phone, it should be fast enough with enough memory and storage to last me until the 2nd generation of 5g phones are out. As well as the 5g infrastructure being in place at a level where one could expect to use the 5g service most of the time.

    Note 8 call sound quality

    My Note 8 is so loud I have to turn it down. The voice gets clearer when I turn it down. So for my Note 8 volume is plenty loud. I haven't tried it with my bluetooth speaker yet though. Sound quality on calls has been better than my old Note.

    Idle battery drain

    I leave mine on charge overnight, but I have noticed the battery in the Note 8 does not last as long as it did in the Note 7. I have to plug it in during the day. My current case prevents me from using the wireless charger without removing the phone from the case. I listen to music or books...

    Security & Antivirus Apps - Necessary?

    I've always felt mcafee created the viruses in the first place. And their software is worse than a virus, as it demands I pay them money. I bought an unlocked phone so I don't have to deal with that, but as it's bloatware, I guess the only thing you can do is force stop and disable it, in...

    Verizon Note 8 - Is this the New DT Ignite?

    I purchase an Unlocked phone that I'm using with a Verizon sim. I thought with an unlocked phone I'd be able to uninstall anything I don't want on the phone. Game Launcher, Game Tools, Game optimizing service, facebook, Facebook app installer, facebook app manager, and facebook services will...

    Need some convicting of keeping my Note8

    I would suggest you go to Best Buy (at the Samsung kiosk) if you have one close and take a class, they will be able to help you get all those things done. I think Verizon has classes as well. I say this because the Note series of phones are the best "business" device available. If you will...

    Pixel 2 any body switching over

    It's not even in the same class as the Note, any Note, much less this awesome Note 8. Most users of the Note series are business people. If you haven't set Action Notes up on your Note 8 you just don't understand. The Note 8 with Action notes is a business tool, not just a new toy, which most...

    I Think I Love Bixby

    I also am finding Bixby to be a valuable tool. As one that drives a lot of the day, and the laws against touching the phone while driving, Bixby is a life saver. With my bluetooth headset I can listen to messages, place and receive calls, google something, or have it launch Audible and play a...

    Thanks for the replies, and I already have the laptop, so I guess you could say that's free.

    DeX Station with Note 8?

    Does anyone have the DeX Station with their Note 8? What I need to do with it is open up Excel, create and edit spreadsheets. Also I need to search websites in desktop mode, (the mobile versions of these sites are lacking) These websites mainly look like a large spreadsheet with all the...
