Galaxy Note II to Mega 6.3? - Samsung Galaxy Mega

I'm planning to switch to Mega 6.3. Will I notice drastic change in the performance? Thank you.

Actual usage is better in the Mega since is has the newer version of touchwiz and android plus its CPU and GPU has newer architecture than the Note 2. Here's a video comparison of the Note 2 and the mega 6.3, notice the lags on the Note 2 around 6:00 onwards.

I sold my Note II and got the Mega and have no regrets. This phone is more modern, fast and fluid throughout the whole UI :good: It performs like a champ and the screen is surprisingly good for a 720p, crisp and clear with great contrast and outdoor visability

Thanks guys! I'm going to get one this weekend! I'm excited! What is the best case for the Galaxy Mega? The one that won't scratch our phone's housing.

I would suggest you think again. I have a Note I as well as the Mega 5.8 DUOS. Note I and Note II (and indeed any Samsung Galaxy 'Note') have the S-Pen which, for some (like me) is a key productivity tool. I create and sign documents and do all sorts of great things on my Note I but cannot do same on the Mega.

I'm using an S line gel case which is quite cheap but very efficient. There's a case thread in the accessories section of the forum for more choices.

There is a good selection of cases on eBay and Amazon. By the way, if you think for a moment why we need a case for these devices, it is to protect them from damage. The most serious damage is not the scratches on the back, but a broken screen. I personally do not think a case that does not protect the screen is effective, so I never go for those gel cases.

I've had many devices with huge screens and I have never broken a screen. I just use a screen protector and a slim gel case. Also, I personally don't like the extra bulk and the price of the 'high end' cases. Lots of people use them and they still break their screens, I am more into scratch protection as I want my phone in pristine condition when I sell it on next year.

I rarely use the S-Pen on my Note 2 before so it won't be a huge deal breaker.
What color is the best? Is the white plastic ok? Like will it turn yellow or stain?

I have never seen a Samsung phone stain due to their hyper glaze tech so it's not something to worry about.
I personally prefer black because the screen blends with the little bezel in front of the phone.

SZLF Bumper Case

Has anyone tried one of these SZLF Aluminum Bumper cases for the AT&T Note? It appears this is only for the International version but I am not aware of any differences in the size of the phone so it may work for both. All of the listings I have found for this on eBay only mention i9220 and N7000 though.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Luxury-...374880?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4163fca0e0
Also, if you have tried this, does the case cover the edges of the screen (further protecting a screen protector)? I like the look of this one as well as the Anymode Bumper but the Anymode looks really big.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1387444
It'll fit the AT&T/Canadian Note.
I recommend u get the following one. It's well worth the money.

Sweet armor is nice and all, but the fake is 1/4 the price, so it would win my vote. The review showed that the original is better made, but I just don't think it's that much better depending on how biased the review is.
I got the sweet armor (fake version, same as szlf) and ended up not using it. Here's why:
1. Makes phone more slippery and heavy
2. Scratches screen protector when taking on and off (and you must take it off to access battery)
3. Not very ergonomic

They look cool, some people like them, I just don't see the point since I agree with primarily your first point. The other day I was laying in my recliner with my 2 year old beside me and we were looking at a zoo app of animals while holding my phone above us. It slipped and I cracked my poor baby girl in the face with my phone. Since then I keep the silicon jacket on it untill my Seidio comes in the mail.
Can't stand the "SZLF" logo all over it...
Stay away from Aluminum Bumpers
My buddy and I both have Notes. We were just troubleshooting (Like 15 muintes ago) network connectivity problems he has been experiencing here at work the last few days. The connection would drop or stay at 4G, and rarely hit LTE. What we discovered was it was the aluminum bumper he installed around the same time the problems started. It drastically reduce his signal quality. Stay far away from these.
Thanks everyone for all the feedback. Based on the issues with potentially scratching the screen protector putting this bumper on and the poor signal strength I am just going to keep looking for something else. I like the BoxWave TPU case I have now but it does not cover the edge of the screen/SP so every once in awhile I notice it pushing up against the SP causing the SP to move slightly.

I am not sure, but it also looks like the battery cover for the N7000 is different than the one on the I717. Noticed on this SZLF case, the bottom back portion would block the I717 cover.

We need alternatives. I personally think the leather effect sounds a bit tacky, especially the stitching (is the stitching real, or is that imprinted as with the leather effect)
I don't want a case (my Galaxy Nexus is looking a bit scratched, but not noticeably so), I just want a plain back like the Galaxy Nexus (or even better, the Nexus 10)
A couple of cases have started to appear on Amazon. This one comes in many colors:

I also got the below but I got the 3x value pack for 15-20USD including shipping to me. keeping in mind I live in New Zealand so shipping is always the dearest for me compared to rest of world
I'll be happy when these 2 arrive, and hopefully before my note 3, last time I recieved my note 2 before my screen protector, I ended up having that overally large plastic crap with the flap at the end (that it comes on with) for a week lol...
I've always been a fan of spigen, their screen protectors are perfect, it fits around everything with no gaps, unlike some protectors where they get to the home button then just drop vertically down, which means below the home button is open to elements... same with near the front camera etc, above it is open to elements... on other screen protectors I've noticed.

I have ordered the spigen ultra crystal and hybrid case too. But I'm not going to keep my hopes up since the stated shipping date is going to be late September and arriving date is mid October. I think I might get the phone before them come. That's why I bought a cheap tpu from eBay also hopefully to cover it before the two arrives from spigen.

Cool case. Sorry you missed out on the Spigen screen protector promo on Amazon.com they had a (4) pack for $1 for a few hours and I ordered (2) of them along with a Glas.tR Slim. I figure its always better to have spares on hand.
yeah just missed out, still though, that price is better than their website price xD

It's not exactly a magnet - I've had mine a mine a month and it looks fine
I bought one a few months back , in fact bought 2 as i had misplaced the one and later found it ,
For me they are just uselss, huge protection but bloats this beauty like a buffalo, becomes so much more difficult to handle the phone with one hand.
Certainly not for me , but if you have clumsy hands and your phone tends to fall a lot then go for it with eyes closed , nothing can ever protect a phone better than OTTERBOX

Galaxy Tab S4 Case With or Without Magnets (NOT KEYBOARD COVER)

When I was considering buying the S3 and perusing it's forum, I encountered a thread, or threads, that talked about the pro and cons of various cases in respect to magnets contained within them, and potential trouble/interference/distortion of magnets on the screen and S-Pen. So, this is to start a similar discussion on this subject as I have ordered the S4 and will, almost certainly, want to use it with a case of some sort.
I have already ordered the TiMOVO Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 10.5" Case from Amazon https://1n.pm/WDzp1
but wish to see what others are doing/thinking.
I don't that is a bad choice. I like the similarities to my S3 cover. I have the S4 keyboard and it could have been better designed.
UAG case
I'm not really a fan of cases with the flip covers. I was hoping to get something with a kickstand on the back, but most that I found online were flip covers.
I was hoping for a rugged case to come out, but with very limited options I just went to a local gadget store and chose the Urban Armor Gear Exoskeleton 10". The top edges of the screen are slightly covered but with watching movies there's usually a black bar at the top and bottom of the screen so I don't really mind it. The Tab is kind of exposed but there really isn't much bulk when holding it. It has a small kickstand and a slot for the S-pen. It's not perfect but it's working well for me. Amazon has a cheaper price compared to the official UAG website.
I also have the grey model (off-white back) and opted for the black exoskeleton case. I am enjoying the contrast between the tablet and the case.

To anyone, The s pen is very easy to lose, why would you buy a case that cant hold it?
I picked up the samsung book cover from best buy today(price match amazon $54) seems pretty high quality so far. I wish UAG would make the metropolis case for this tab. That is my favorite tablet case of all time, but seem they only like apple.
I got one from Verizon, it's their brand but it's just like an otter box. No flip cover and surprising thin and nice.

user claims "The magnet effect happens over time, and is likely not reversible. I don't recommend using cases w magnet auto sleep."
Stay original! This is s damn expensive device, especially those of us that got the LTE version from start.
I got the Samsung Book Cover, and gonna buy the keyboard cover if there are any black friday deals out. =)
I like the Infiland case because it has a dedicated slot for the pen as well.

Worth the upgrade from the Tab S4?

Having read assorted bits and pieces is this really worth upgrading from the Tab S4, or would it make more sense to wait for the 5G (hopefully next?) version.
I've got three S4s being used for various different tasks, non particularly processor intensive. No gaming.
Thoughts?

I use my S4 as a laptop replacement when travelling and am getting a LTE S6 tomorrow. The S-855, Adreno 640, UFS 3.0 storage, and 2GB more of RAM aren't just minor performance bumps they are life changing. I get low memory warnings on my S4 using DeX that I'm sure will go away on the S6.
Thinner and lighter is always good and the glass back on the S4 always made it feel fragile so aluminum to me is a plus. I dropped a Tab S3 from 2 feet and its back cracked and I've been paranoid ever since.
I'm not sure how I feel about the S Pen as a deformitive appendage on the back but I like that the OEM cases cover it. Speaking of which the OEM keyboard is enticing if it works. The back piece has failed to adhere for some people that have posted online and that's concerning. Others have commented on how strong it is. Same thing with how easy or not the bottom half stays attached. QC issues? User error? I'll know personally tomorrow.
The other issue with the OEM cases is they've gone back to magnets vs. clips to attach to the tablet. Sleeker look but zero side protection which is what cost me the glass back of my Tab S3. Not thrilled about that.
I'm traveling with the S6 soon and that'll be a true test of it and its paraphernalia. I'll report back.
I came from a tab s4. I think it is worth it. Much better performance. Being lighter has been something I've enjoyed more than I thought. The speakers are a lot better too, the tab s4 was loud but had no bass or depth, tab s6 addresses that with a much deeper sound and bass.
The s pen feels like an upgrade too, nice to have somewhere to attach to the tablet.
Even though the screen is pretty much the same it does feel more immersive because of the slimmer bezels.
Battery life seems very similar for me but battery tests online are coming out as the tab s6 draining less during film streaming etc.
Also worth noting the s6 will get Android 10 quicker.
My Tab S4 is very jittery and laggy when I start using it after a few hours of idling. Things become normal after that and is relatively smooth.
Hopefully Tab S6 won't have this issue a few months down the road
Skipped the s4 because the upgrades from the s3 were not meaningful imo. S3 to S6 is quite the jump in performance and very much worth the upgrade.
As I'm a stockily built guy over 6' 1" to be honest a slightly thinner/lighter unit means nothing to me and from what I've read the performance improvements would be more important to gamers or users doing processor intensive tasks.
As my usage is mainly web browsing, email, some business apps and media consumption (I use Kodi frontend with my mythtv server) using some bluetooth noise cancelling headphones I can't see a critical reason to do the upgrade right now. I must admit though I am tempted to perhaps swap out one or more of my current 64GB S4s for a 256GB S4 which you can currently pick up for circa £450 ($500). The only reason I have three is I occasionally have to do extended travelling and the ability to view media without access to power for 2-3 days is very useful.
However 5G would be a benefit that I would consider important enough to get me to spend my moula.

I had the problem with the back piece not sticking when I got the keyboard cover last Friday. A quick wipe down of the tablet back and the sticky part of the case with an alcohol swab took care of it. It's not coming off without a lot of determined pulling now.

So I'm picking mine up wed. Some of the reviews are conflicting. Is it sticky? or suction? The guy at best buy said it was adhesive, but I got the impression it was more like popsockets?

It is a rectangle of sticky material, no suction. Once stuck properly it is very secure.

That's what I was thinking the problem was - something between the two surfaces not allowing full adhesion. I swap between cases (keyboard, book cover, TPU) so "determined pulling" is a gift and a curse. There's some debate as to what exactly holds the back kickstand cover to the tablet. Is it magnets? Adhesive? Suction? Some combination? The Tab S3 and S6 are both aluminum and the former had magnetic cases. Curios design this go round.
My Tab S6 arrives today and I've had the keyboard for a week so we shall see.
I switched from the S4 to the S6 and got the keyboard cover for half price with the preorder. I much prefer the metal back in lieu of the glass. I had the keyboard case for the S4 as well. The back of the new one sticks great for me. I put it on immediately after taking the S6 out of the box. It seems much faster in general. Nice to have a current processor in stead of the one from the previous year. I never used Dex much before but it is nice with the track pad. I really like the Surface like kickstand on the back piece of the keyboard cover. I also like having the fingerprint scanner for banking and stuff. The battery life seems better to me even though it is smaller.

it's not really sticky, I think it is some combination of tack, suction and "maybe"magnets
It is a rubbery adhesion material like what is used in non-suction phone mounts. There are no magnets in the center section, but there are magnets in the sPen flap.
Guys, do you know if the Tab S6 keyboard cover fits the Tab S4??? Can someone try it?
Thanks!

The S6 is a bit smaller. I had both together for a few hours. Also I like the S6 a ton better because of the trackpad and kickstand.
S6's screen is to die for That I can't fault.

Speakers are very good and much improved too
Only reason I would consider the s6 is the extra storage option from 64gb to 128gb.
