Verizon Note 2 Pre-order, Release date, and speculation thread

Mine arrived before the estimated 7p delivery.

Too big?!?! I still have room to hold my old Gnex ;)

I picture you holding that Nexus less and less.
 
Apparently that's what I'll need to do.



I don't understand what you mean - the GN2 is different in every dimension from every other phone made, AFAIK. My Droid fit in it's car dock and desk stand perfectly. The car dock was incredibly secure and effortless to remove. If it had charging built-in, it would have been perfection. The Droid literally drops into the desktop dock with absolutely no effort (with built-in charging) and to remove it, you simply pick it up and go. I've seen other phones in universal docks... If you haven't had something that fit as well as the Droid with it's docks, then you wouldn't understand. Everything I've seen thus far is a step down.

But I'll see what I can find.

I was talking about compared to other G Note 2 devices. Other carriers and retailers have had vehicle and desk docks available since the phone has been out. Why rely on Verizon when you don't have to? All the Galaxy Note 2 devices on all the different cares are the exact same in build quality so there should be no reason to wait on them. Sorry if my post was a bit unclear.
 
Sigh I'm stuck at work while my device is waiting for me at the VZW store :( why do I have to be like an hour and half away from home today! :( my bf is picking up my phone for me tho, just gotta stay calm till I'm home.

Stupid iPhone battery is about to die too!

You work an hour and a half away? Sheesh ouch.
 
Mine got here about an hour ago. I am so smitten and overwhelmed. I love it. :D

It's amazing the things this phone already does that my iPhone 4s never had a chance in hell at doing. :P

Looking forward to replacing my 4S as my primary phone. Will keep it around to use as an iPod Touch but looking forward to doing more with the Note II.
 
Kinda wish I saved that page that had easy instructions on what to do to swap over...I thought it was from the confirmation email but no...
 
Hi all

I drove to the next state to get mine tax free NH, I went with gray, I wanted white but they had none and I really liked the grey better now that I saw it up close.

I have 4 people on my account, so the verizon rep did a upgrade transfer (only on the computer) from one number to another (that had 2 gig data) then the sales rep put my siii sim in the note 2 on my unlimited data plan, and put the new sim in the siii, on the 2 gig plan. Everything seems great, just checked and my data is still unlimited:D


He also told my that I have till jan 13 (or 15th) to return it, due to buying it now, before xmass. I don't know how true that is but if the 32 gig comes out I might take him up on that....

Also none of my apps restored maybe due to I had 32 gig siii and zoom, but good anyway cause this way I don't load every game I had on the 32, more room now and maybe this 16 gig will do, time will tell.

Best of luck to all;)

I am using my iPhone 4s to fund the purchase of the Note 2's upgrade fee. Going to sell it for $400, in original box, with it's headphones, original adapter & cable, plus a case and a bumper. Pretty sure I'll get my asking price. Plus my phone is like new! :)

But I am so glad I replaced it. It's already made such a change and I've only had it for one day thus far. I love this thing.
 
Well, mine came this morning while I was at school. I was able to convince my dad to let me have it early!! So now I'm busily playing with it

And CONGRATS to all of you who rec'd your phones today. Here's my official welcome to the family!!!!!

To those who haven't picked theirs up but on their way to get it.....PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY. A phone can be replaced.....You know the rest.
 
Fedex called and said they mislabled my package and that it was late and missed the plane. I won't have it until tomorrow. The rage is indescribable.

Any downside to returning it to vzw and then getting it from walmart for the extra $100 off?

Who, specifically, is carrying an oem vehicle/nav dock?

I have not seen one on other carriers or the samsung usa site.
 
no wireless charging contacts...booo
good thing i didn't buy the parts for it

That's a bummer. I was kind of hoping to play around with it and see if I could get it to work with the new wireless charging stations at Starbucks. (Different wireless standards, but hey, it's always fun to tinker).
