Note 4 Should I Buy a Note 3?

[anon(469638)]

I'm most definitely getting the Note 4. But I want to know this: Should I try out a Note 3 until the 4 is available?

I'm so freaking anxious for a new phone that I'm losing my mind!

I love my Nexus 5 and will be keeping it when I upgrade, but geez....this wait is unbearable!

Damn you Samsung!!!

If you have a decent working phone... try to relax and wait for the Note 4 to be released. My Note 2 died a couple weeks and I'm on an S3 until the Note 4 ships. If I can survive on an S3 you should be able to manage on a Nexus 5.

That restocking fee is just throwing money down the toilet. Is mom paying the bill or are you? That $ could be spent on a nice accessory.

Just go straight to Note 4.

I'm an adult with a new job, apparently too much disposable income and no self control

I brought the G3 then the same day fell in love with the note 4. I tried to love the G3. But the note 4 called me all day and night. I just took back the G3 and exchanged it for a note 3. I am very pleased with this one. I don't think I will be upgrading to the note 4 unless a blessing comes my way.

Must not have kids or a mortgage . I splurge when it comes to early upgrades, but going into an upgrade knowing that I would be throwing away $50+ on a restocking fee is across my line.

Then go for it I guess? Just seems like a waste lol

This sounds more like a personal finance question than a phone question. I don't know how much money you make or what your life goals are. The question is how much you value your money. If the answer is "not much," then go ahead and buy a Note 3.

I live by the motto of Can't take it with you.

I have a nice savings account, nothing grand.

I look at it this way: How often do I waste money on other frivolous items? Buying $2 apps here and there, IAP or cases? Not to mention eating out when I have food at home or wasting gas driving around with no where to go.

I waste money all the time and am very aware of it. This would be no different honestly. $35 restocking is a drop in the bucket compared to other less obvious wasting of money.

I'll take the $150 for the Galaxy Note 3 and put it towards my mortgage then. Lol

Even if you have the coins for it I'd say. Wait, won't be much longer now.

I agree. Two weeks from tomorrow the majority of us will be Note in hand

What carrier are you with that only charges $35 for a restocking fee on a $750 phone? All restocking fees I've seen are either $50 or $75.

It's really up to you. But, why not try something different and make someone's day by giving them the money. Someone who really needs it and $35 would make their day or really help them out.

Just a thought.

AT&T usually charges $35

Just wait. It will make the note 4 that much sweeter when you get it.

Remember, the destination is "note" the entire part of the experience, it's the road getting there.

Those programs are to try to find you a device that best suits your needs. To knowingly buy a phone you aren't going to keep seems to take advantage of a program that costs the company you are buying it from money. That is not a win-win deal. Just wait a little longer. No need to cause the company's expenses to go up.
