I bought my phone back in February and overall I've been happy with it.
Recently, however, my phone started getting the "to charge faster, use the orig. Samsung charger".. And that's while using the charger that came with the phone. No big deal, but then it started charging really slowly, and it's so bad now that it doesn't charge at all. I've tried everything I can think of, including two different chargers, restarting the phone, different wall outlets, cleaning the contacts inside the phone and on the charger, etc. nothing works.
There have also been other annoyances. The keyboard is garbage (including the worst autocorrect I've ever seen). Honestly. I've never loved it, but realized how terrible it was when I was using my wife's phone in a low service area on vacation. Even on the tiny iPhone 5s screen, the keyboard just.. Worked. Well. And if you receive a text while typing, 99% of the time it repeats the word on the note.
The weak signal is another thing. The Note has one of the weakest signal radios (is that the correct term?) out there. My phone would not connect to the web at all... iPhone 5s- worked non-stop, no problem.
I am bringing the phone into the Verizon store today. The question is- I have another 16 months to live with this phone, and I'm debating trying to get a credit for a different phone rather than a replacement Note 3.
Has anyone changed their mind like I have?
