    Official Pixel case. Anyone bought?

    Really like the Google silicone case...doesn't hamper device operation in any way, high quality feel.

    Any Canadians have a Pixel or Pixel XL?

    Very good reception here (markedly better than my note7)...Bell Mobility.

    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    The overall smoothness & design. Doesn't feel like a heap of features forced together, with varying degrees of success (cough...note7).

    Canada Note 7 Recall Thread

    FINALLY got thru to someone at National Channel Support, who directed me to go to my closest store - and get those staff to call him to talk them thru the exchange. Which, once I did it, was relatively painless...note7 price was credited to my account in whatever way I wanted , update date was...

    Is waterproofing really that important to you?

    This. Kinda negates the whole point of waterproofing.

    Canada Note 7 Recall Thread

I detect a distinct lack of urgency on...

    This. I'm not normally a litigious person, but I would totally support a lawsuit against Samsung at this point, for no other reason than the public reprimand it would represent. Notice the distinct lack any apology or mea culpa from Sammy Management, anywhere?

    Canada Note 7 Recall Thread

    Update - 1. "Supervisor" from Bell Support never got back to me. 2. The Samsung Experience Store (god, the irony...) to which I was referred by Samsung Inc., is not answering its phone, and there is no voicemail capability. Next steps will probably involve contacting news media.

    It gets better...went to a corporate store, they won't exchange the phone - since I originally upgraded to the phone online, there's no point of sale through which they can process a return/exchange - the rep showed me how their system won't accept my bomb, er, phone...so he gave me the same...

    I'll have to schlep all the way to the nearest corporate store, I guess. What a P.I.T.A.

    Ok - so I just went to the closest Bell store - and they won't even exchange it (!), since I had originally upgraded to the note7 online. The "help" number CSR told me just to take my phone to any Bell store. Grrrreat.

    Note 7 Canada Recall - Got your new Note 7 yet?

    I wonder how this will work for those of us who upgraded online...I'm with Bell Mobility, and can do without the gigantic flail I usually encounter when I've used my local retail outlets
