And once you put Android Wear on your Gear 2, you will be even happier
(if you don't care about the camera, as this doesn't work (YET) with Android Wear).
I really like my gear 2 but i switch between tizen and android wear
Im buying a gear 2 gold tomorrow and can wait for $120
Tizen as an OS is better in my opinion. I don't like the cards thing in wear, but tizen and samsung are just too much locked. With too few possibilities to sync with other apps or services. And then there is the apps and quality of watch faces. But once you get use to AW and the cards it's OK and I am not coming back to tizen...

Has anybody tried this vehicle bluetooth dock? Looks pretty bad ass and would work with future phones. Maybe this could be my last dock for a while? Just wondering about the volume rocker on the sensation. Looks like accessing the charging port might not be an issue.
Looks well made and not really a bad price when you price the official sensation dock (that doesnt have bluetooth)
What do you think?

That's a good price, was looking at that but was expensive, better the the OEM dock.. Parrot is a good Bluetooth brand, and it should work, don't see why it wouldnt...

Looking at the pics makes me miss my n1 a little lol...
But personally I have never used parrot, but looks like a good alternative. But this tread reminded me about my BlueAnt S4 that I have stashed away because it didn't play well with my Nexus one with MIUI.
Just ordered it along with a sonos s5 zone player and zone bridge.. gotta love wireless
That product screams "Break into this car and steal me... im worth it"

Yes the wonderful N1. I ordered a new one from ebay for $250 bout a week or so ago, gave my original to my girl when i got the EVO 4G. It looks like the senation may spend a few days down being replaced so the N1 will make a nice back-up.
Bump... Its hard to believe nobody has tried one of these...on any phone? mine has shipped so it wont be long now
I have two days left on my return period at Best Buy for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.0, but I really like it.
I downloaded android apps and I'm reading acrobat .pdf files and text files with ease. It's really good.
But is it overpriced? Save $100 and buy the 7 inch? Buy the Nexus 7? Wait 4 months and buy the Microsoft Surface?
I can already see myself carrying my laptop (90 minutes battery max.) less often, especially since I'm getting 9 hours
on my new tablet. Even if it drops to 6 hours it's pretty good.
I'm using it to read .pdf files and make screenshots and edit the screenshots with my finger. It's amazing. It's already saving me hours.
What do you think? Was I an early-adopter too soon? Should I refund it?
I'm not comfortable with Google's Nexus spying habits (my prediction) and Google's history of invading my privacy. I also don't need a carrier device and monthly data plans. I bought a wifi only device for offline work.
I sync with my PC using the Samsung KIES software, and although it's slow and a little annoying, it's ok. It does the job.
My big concerns:
1. Jelly bean. Did I buy too soon?
2. Superior tablet in 3-4 months with longer battery life and better screen.
3. Buyer's remorse?
4. The future of Ice Creme Sandwich.
My opinion:
There is always going to be some form of buyer's remorse. In 2 months there will be something better, in 2 more months there will be something better than that. If you are happy with the tablet you have now....then stick with it. I have the original GT10.1 and am happy with it. Yes, if I had waited 2 months I could have got the transformer prime or the GT10.1 version 2.
If it's already increased your productivity and you are happy with it...then stick with it. XDA devs make my tablet worthwhile, even with Samsung dragging ass on updates. You have the advantage of an external sd slot, something I don't have.

outlined in red ( phots not that great but you can see the mark that doesn't move regardless of whats on screen) - highly irritating now i know its there, my eyes are drawn to it. would this be a RMA job?
Yeah, its kind of tough when it's near the middle of the screen like that. It really depends on how much it bothers you. Mine just came in the mail an hour ago and after playing around a little, noticed 1 small dead pixel on bottom right of screen. It's kind of gray, not black. But I'm not really noticing it, I have to really look for it and even then it's hard to see. My phone is otherwise perfect - no vibration issues, power button is solid, etc. I think I'll just keep it.

Yeah I would rma it. That would do definitely bother me.

I have a speck of something in almost exactly the same place. RMA won't be shipped until December 3. Hope the replacement doesn't have this issue.

its a dead pixel, mate
Its dead pixels. I had two of this massive dead pixels on my iphone 5 and the apple genius guys replaced it with a new one.
You should definately RMA it and get it replaced. I was planning to buy a nexus 5 myself but have been getting negative feedback on the speaker quality and the dead pixels issue hence I think I will either wait for the LG G2 Mini or something else.
Got this from Amazon for $35, it took me about 2 minutes to install. I don't have to deal with the Galaxy S4 plug anymore. It takes the battery more time to charge but it works perfectly well, even with the phone case on. If you need a wireless charger, this is it. Look no further. It's cheap, it's easy to install, it works well, it is convenient.
Hi,
any link ? or brand, model name ?
thanks

The charging speed is 700ma, seems quicker than most others on the market, most others are from 500ma to 600ma. It do generate some heat when charging, i can feel warm when i touch the phone, when i test it the temperature is around 105 degrees F, that is acceptable for me.
Will update more ...

Do not buy or you might be disappointed. I got it today and found the label peeling off, and when I stuck it back on, it started to cover the printing.

Regrettably that it really isn't. I never had a problem with batteries marked OEM. But I guess the good news the seller refunded me the money and said to keep it our toss it out. There are still a few who believe in truth in advertising. I have reported the seller to eBay. But I doubt anything comes from that. If they don't say OEM, I know I am taking a chance to save a few bucks.

I have buying them for years, never a problem. I normally notice the little details, like the waves missing in the battery. (The NFC antenna) but failed this time. But at least I got my money back. If I wanted cheap Chinese batteries, I would have bought the ones for five bucks.

eBay is full of knock offs for things like batteries. Just gotta find a legit seller and stick to it.

:highfive:
There is a few legit sellers, my mistake was not looking at my saved sellers list. A mistake I am not about to repeat twice, even though this time really didn't cost me anything...
