I had originally tried Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ... returned it after 9 days as I learned that SG Note 2 and SGS 3 are extremely fragile - screen breaks from 2 ft drops.
So, Photon Q is coming ...

ive already dropped mine from about 3.5 feet onto cement and its still just fine
why omg nos?! lol i just couldnt trust a phone that didnt let me open its back...
ive got the circles i was hoping to find one that was like the little widgets for email, texts, browser, contacts, and phone that you could flick and get the preview windows for?

I was mainly concerned by side drops near corners, as the phone oftenly falls on them.

yea thats exactly where mine landed. theres just faint little scuff dots on the edge

Highly Dissapointed

I'm supposed to be thrilled by this tablet, in fact I still am (not with mine). A family member traveled to U.S and I ordered a White Note 10.1 and my auncle told me it didn't came with the S Pen which instantly put me in a sad mood all day. I can't find not even 1 site in my country that is selling the spen for the Note 10.1. The main reason I bought this tablet was because I wanted to have the S pen function.. I still does not have the tablet, mostly I'll be getting it tomorrow since they are arriving today, and tomorrow in my city.. I wanted to know just in case if The S Pen of the Galaxy notes 1 and 2 (phones) works good on the tablet? I'm not even excited anymore.. :crying:
I'm just hoping they didn't realize the S pen comes inside the tablet, even tho it's explained in an image in the back of the tablet..

thats very odd, did your uncle buy a 2nd hand tablet thats missing a pen? anyway im sure you can buy an S-pen on ebay, or buy the s-pen from international websites.
also i dont think the pen for note 1 and 2 will work.

No! I even bought it from Amazon as a New. It cost me 450$ .. That's why I don't understand. I'm just really hoping that they didnt notice that spen is coming in the corner inside the tab

Yes I know, that chilled me a little bit, I still hope it's there and they didnt notice..

If you don't mind saying ......... How did they get it from Amazon and do you have an email with the part number that you ordered. and what country are you in now?

Are you sure you bought the Galaxy Note 10.1? Because there's no Galaxy Note 10.1 being sold without the S-Pen. So in my point of view maybe you mistook and bought something like Galaxy Tab (2 or 10.1), such there's no S-Pen coming on those.
If you ordered a Galaxy Note 10.1 from amazon and you received a different one, you can challenge them to be refunded or to change it to the correct ordered product.
Also, FYI, the S-Pen won't work on Galaxy Tab series, it only works on Galaxy Note series because there's an active detection panel on the capacitive screen which locates the S-Pen indication/touch (If you bring the S-Pen closer than 3mm the panel locates the S-Pen approximation without touching it on the screen). And this panel is only present on Galaxy Note Series

Yes I ordered the Galaxy Note 10.1, I know the concept and all, he sent me a picture and it is the note.., but it seems the s pen is missing somehow didn't came in the tablet (maybe problem of furbished or idk), it's brand new, I'm about to receive it.. I hope everything is fine..

So.. I just receive the Galaxy note 10.1 and.. It has the Spen inside My auncle told me he had no idea it was there cause he actually open the box and putted right on the leather case backwards (wrong side) so he couldnt see the S pen lol. I love it! My only question is about the Spen, is normal to push it into the screen to actually use it? I feel its not like feeling the touch like my finger which is very smooth

Great to hear that you got the full package. enjoy!
"Push it into the screen"... did you mean you have to write hard? the tip the S Pen comes with (black tip) is a relatively soft one. if you want smoother feeling you can change to the white tip, which is harder. Personally I feel that the white one is too smooth...
Also, some screen protector make the S Pen black tip hard to use. I used to have an anti-glare screen protector on my note 10.1 and it doesn't feel good to write on with black tip.

Yeah sorry if u didnt understand, sometimes is hard for me to explain some things cause my main language is spanish
Well I feel like I have to push the spen hard in the screen for it to write which I dont really like lol I thougut its supposed to touch the screen and works just like your fingers.. and that kinda bothers me.. how can I change that you are saying. I did notice it came a few black and white sticks but I have no idea how that workx? Thank you
Im not ussing any screen protector..

Use the metal ring that came with tips to pull the black tip out. Theres a little hole where the tip is gripped. Now get a white tip and insert it with the metal ring. Just make sure you insert with the rounded end out....
Cheers....:laugh:

Yes I just checked that, I don't really note much difference about the black one and the white one.. Is it normal that It doesn't recognize the sensitive when it's touching the screen and not pushing it?

The screen is pressure sensitive, like with a pen, the harder you press down the more "ink" is released and the thicker the line. Even using the finger can take a bit of pressure sometimes, especially when plugged into power...

[POLL] Black, white or pink .. Vote (comparison video inside)

There is a similar thread already, but the OP over there can't add a poll
Here is a poll , just for fun and the curiosity
Here you got a small video comparison till this beast hit the showrooms:
.

That video is what sold me on black. The horizontal bands don't appear to be as prominent as the grey was on the Note 2.

But you didn't vote :laugh:

Yeah, I was going to get the white one until I seen that same video. The phone looks like color with the screen off, which I like.

I just think it's a shame, they didn't start with blue or red instead of that pink..
Perhaps they know better .... nah .......

You guys should be pressing that "thanks" button for me finding and posting that video :laugh: :laugh:
Just joking :cyclops:

It's only 12 votes so far, but I think the preference is already clear..
Can't imagine any other color catching up ....
.

I wish there was a grayish/silver color with a dark gray bezel, just like on my Titanium Note 2
But Jet Black will do ....
.
.

i went with the Jet Black as well...
Not a big fan of white phones, remind me of iphones and give apple fanboys another reason to say samsung copies apple. I wish samsung would do away with the white and do a nice slate/gray instead. Heck they got pink so why not....

My note 2 is white and i love it so note 3 also will be on white...

I had a white Note 2 and currently own a white S4 and white Galaxy Camera. I think they look really great but I fancy a change now and black looks better with the leather effect. I also think you get better screen contrast with the a black bezel.

I'm getting a black one.
Reason: It's black

I see that 5 ladies voted...
Just joking :laugh:
.

Black for me. After seeing that video, I just think it looks better in black than in whit or pink.

The Galaxy Gear is Mocha Gray...
Since I am not in hurry of buying the Note3 ( eventually I will), I hope that till then there will be a Gray kinda of Titanium colored Note3 too ...
.

Black or darker bezels are way cooler
The back cover usually gets a case anyways

Does the black actually help to set the screen apart from the bezel as the video stated?
I'm really divided between black and white, and I'm trying to find a good reason to choose one over the other.

Black creates a better contrast against all the bright colors (this is why the display on white phones pop more when the screen is OFF). It makes the display pop more. The "black" however is not really a black. It's a darker grey-scale color than the titanium note 2, with the same horizontal striping but not as prominent. No doubt it will make the display pop more than white though. In light, the white is conceptually brighter than the display.

(Clone) HDC Galaxy S4 Screen Replacement

Possible? Where would i buy the screen? I cant find anywhere..

bump?

??????

Yup me too...still couldnt find one online so I had no choice but to order the authentic Samsung GS4 screen which I have just received today in the mail. It looks like it could fit with all the camera circles and the home button placed. I will try replacing it real soon and post my result. *Crossing fingers.......
