Cool so does it have it's own number?
Pixz or it didn't happen
I know you work for them so you probably got a discount but if I buy it out right will they force me to buy a 2 year contract?

In the box was the cradle charger, quick start, and manual.
Ill be honest battery life has been terrible today. 100% charge at 7am and now at 240 im down to 19%. This could be because some things are on that shouldnt be because i dont have sprint service to it. So probably user error haha.
I dinked around with the GPS for a few. Ill still to my phone.
Havent tried. Ill let ya know.
Call quality when tethered to my phone is awesome. Sounds great. Kinda feel like **** Tracey lol.
Not a ton of app at the moment because its tinzen.
That was a notification for messenger. It can be turned off / on under gear settings.
Music is loud enough for the watch. I wouldnt use it on a daily as your main source of music though.

Sorry I'm just kinda bored but I thought this might be a funny thread of

So as You open the note just take a quick picture next to your old phone or phones!
It really does feel like Christmas today!!

Good to have people on this inside however, that new Keurig might be good to have at the same time as your are opening your new Note so you can make coffee, stay up all night and play with your new phone!
Personally, I would rather have the Note being delivered than the Keurig.

For me this is the official "I hate you until Sunday" thread. I was thinking about ordering from AT&T, but I have a flight on Monday, so if it didn't come in today I wouldn't have it for while.

As far as the lip goes, thats got to be the case.
I was about to say this at&t note has big lips.
So I got home today and there was a box sitting on my doorstep. I usually know when I'm expecting something, so I thought it was something for my wife, until I see that it was mailed to me...
Looked at the return address, and it was from HTC Bellevue.
I was thinking to myself, I didn't order anything, nor did I expect anything to be coming to me...
This is what I got...
so...wait. wut?
why? Did you buy a car kit or something. I don't get it. But hey, free ish is always awesome.
Nice congrats!
What all is there?
I see a car charger with an extra USB cable and a portable speaker?

Pretty neat. Could you give us the model number of what you got? I've never seen that device before.
Well you gave your address to HTC at some point so whenever that was is directly related to why you got this...cool $60 gift though....car speakerphone for those that don't have in car Bluetooth...
For those that havent seen this before just google HTC Car Mic...

does your luck extend to celebrities?
is the sound quality loud enough for a 20ftx40ft room?
Haven't really tested it yet. Passed out early last night, didn't get any calls this morning on my commute to work.
That's a slick device and you can't beat the price. I've been using a Motorola T505 for a year or so now and it works very well. It also allows you to stream music to your car stereo via a bluetooth-to-FM feature. The sound quality isn't perfect, but it's an easy, wireless solution that is simple to configure.
Amazon link for reference.

I'm not sure. It's not listed in the specs which list these:

Nooooo I was JUST in Tempe! I had no idea that the Gear S was there, the dang AT&T website said there were no stores in all of Arizona that were previewing them and there definitely aren't any up here in northern AZ. I could have bought it yesterday!!!
I have to go to Vegas to get one now because that's the closest location with any corporate mobile stores or Best Buy stores and I have no idea why Best Buy hasn't announced it yet. Not a single peep ...

I just keep it on the usb cord thing for now so hopefully I wont lose it
and for people who travel too europe or from europe where you can't simply plug this thing in , i would recommend a portable power supply and a micro usb cable.
I will be comparing results. Honest reviews ONLY ABOUT THE AT&T VERSION. Thank you.
I've got the 930FD and love it. Haven't had any charging issues. The camera on it is amazing, the smart call feature is awesome, many new features!

One guy told me that he had gone trough 4 AT&T note7s, and that they were all too "crap" aka faulty.
I used for a week and couldn't handle the lag...I am used to Samsung lag after using S3, Note 4, Note 5 but this lag is terrible. I just feel they rushed the product. Initial release of UX software to Note 5 was smooth...but they screwed it with Note 7...I heard it is only for US carrier versions though. But the battery has been good...

More like you are unlucky. I have had no issues with mine.
My wife and I both have ATT version and neither have any lag. We both love them. Can't wait to get this exchange over with. Love using it all day the way I want and not worrying about the battery. 18 hours of use with 5 hrs of screen on time and still battery to spare when I go to bed. Using it with gear s2 as well! Use AOD and all features maxed out.

I just hope my 4th device is good because I really love the note 7. Had every note that has came out and man do I love the note line of phones. My 3rd note was bad, but not as bad as the first 2 were. Even though my 3rd device had issue, I really hated handing it over for the recall because I could end up with the replacement being as bad as the first 2 devices.
No lag for me either. I loaded manually only the apps I needed.

Phone itself: 10/10
Best phone I've ever had. No lag, great battery (though I did have to disable some bloat to get it), and the phone is gorgeous. My only gripe is the autocorrect which works badly IMO.
This whole recall mess: 4/10
It sucks and it's concerning. My phone hardly gets warm while charging, but you never know if or when something bad could happen. I'm not too scared though.
Im glad Samsung voluntarily took the hit and did the recall. It just sucks now that the government has gotten involved and that everyone is scared and that the media is just eating this up. Once the new phones come, I'll get one and be happy for quite some time!
