Went back to the Note 7

This battery life in getting out of my new replaced note7 is phenomenal. Came home from work with 80% left. That's insane. That update really did something. Much faster as well.

My normal usage is leaving me at like 62% and thats with location on and blue tooth syncing with my gear fit 2....With my note 5 I would be around 30 percent and thats with location and Bluetooth off ....I'm very happy with battery life...

Yea I streamed music for about 4 hours of the 9 hours I worked and of course texted and used some apps.

The ZDnet contributor in this pod cast went back to the Note 7 as well, since as folks here including me have pointed out, other current devices seem under par in comparison. He also points out how much better the replacement Note 7 is in regards to features and performance- especially after the 400MB update. An update Verizon has yet to release- if ever.

I'm still contemplating whether or not to go back to Note 7 because this freaking wait for the 7+ is just ridiculous.

What is it with the wait? Note 7 was awesome first received, then the recall and a week doesn't even pass and people are complaining about the long wait, we are going to the iPhone. Now we can't handle the wait for the iPhone.

I'm not attacking, I just curious why people have a problem with a wait for the phone they want. And for what it's worth, a lot of the people that left for other phones during the recall saying the other phones were nicer have returned to the new note 7 saying it's now the best phone ever.

I have my new note 7 and am enjoying it. But if I missed out on getting one in the first batch, I would be dissappointed, but I would wait for the second batch it's the phone I want and would wait for it.
