Cool video, but I wouldn't call it an unboxing. It was a debloating.

NYC represent!
I see that you got silver. I did as well. Do you feel that it will distract you? I usually go with black, but the silver just blinged to me..

Pre order?
If you did how long did it take to ship?

Woww.
Amazing

When I unboxed my S7e, I was surprised to see a dongle that is able to connect external storage to the phone. I was able to read all my USB sticks with no problem. I never knew those dongles existed. I do now.

Sim Cover Kickstand

Ok so I know it has been talked about but I would like to know if anyone has tried to make one. Just did a quick search and those sim covers are quite pricey. ~$20 being the cheapest on eBay. Any ideas? I saw the ONLY case with it built in but that is also pricey ~$30
Thanks

Dude no way! That's amazing. That makes me like HTC even more. I'll have to give them a call as soon as my phone actually arrives. It's "lost" as of right now thanks to Fedex.

Then you could also throw in against a wall and it would be fine I just want a slim phone now. I've been running the OB Defender on my iPhone 4 and its like a brick. I may be picking up that case with the kickstand built in that has been talked about in the case thread but I think it would be awesome to custom fab a stand in the sim door.

+1. I would buy something like that... (If it looks good and doesn't add too much bulk.)

Seriously? Because ONE phone out of hundreds builds in a kickstand it should become the norm? LOL.
Really tho, It's not something I think most people want to add bulk to their case for. Sure there's a market for it, but not enough to justify most making it. There are tons of pocket stands (even some that fold up into a credit card) available on eBay. I don't regularly sit in front of my 4" phone to watch things long enough to warrant having a stand, tho.

Agreed however when you get an "updated" version of a phone that has a kickstand it's kind of a bummer when it's not an option. I can honestly say i've never really had the need for a kickstand but having it available is definitely a nice thing.

Seido Cases Finally Available

These are the folks who make the Platinum cases for Best Buy. Had one on my Captivate. Loved it! Easy on and off. Now available for the SR.
Maybe I can figure out how to buy myself one for Christmas.

Now hopefully Best Buy gets them in stock. $35 vs $50...

Yeah, that's kinda what I'm waiting on. $50 is kinda high, but they are good cases.
Does this case cover the second microphone on the top of the phone?
EDIT: In regards to the "SURFACE" type case.
If they only had white.....
I've been waiting for them to release the case w/belt clip (I know...the phone is large and will look funny on the belt).
http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung-skyrocket-s/7561.htm
They still show it "under development" on their site...but it might not be up to date if everyone is finding it in the stores.

You care correct
I have used Seidio cases on 4 different phones. They are are top quality in my experience.
USE "winter11" for 15% off your order.
I've used these cases for numerous phones, good quality on all of them.
Going to have to hit best buy to see if them have them in stock.

Yeah about an hour ago I took a look at the website, it really seems to be the only one that's selling these things at the moment.
Even the damn Sony site keeps saying coming soon... BUT HOW SOON IS SOON!!!
Still thinking whether to order at Clove or not.

I've just ordered it haven't got the phone yet lol, get it tomorrow.
I'd like the white dock too but waiting for someone to show stock... I have the black Z but like the white dock, will look nice in my bedroom.
Was hoping to get the black one in the accessories offer from Sony but by IMEI isn't qualifying, might try again. I'm surprised they're not available for launch though considering they were bundled in some territories.

Pengate fixed for new GN5

I bought my GN5 9/19/15 at best buy. While watching football tonight I was messing around with the S pen and for the heck of it tried to put it in backwards. To my surprise it won't! Even if I try to force it in all it does is depresses the clicker. Looks like Samsung either changed the size of the top of the S pen or the hole. Either way I'm glad that I'll never have to worry about having it put in backwards.

How old is your GN5? It might be a fix for the new batches
I bought it like 1-2 weeks ago. Ordered the 64GB Black model through Verizon's website.
Guess the question now is, is it a pen change or a phone/slot change.

Yes mine comes from Korea too.
Just don't put it in backward!
And if you do, just roll up some paper and slide it in there to release the pen.
But it's better just not to put it in backward in the first place.
If you're drunk best not use the pen at all!

I'm not worried about putting mine in backwards, but has anybody else noticed the pen randomly popping out while carried in your pocket? It seems like everytime I remove my phone out of my pocket my pen is sticking out slightly and I have to lock it back in.

Question Samsung please just ship me my watch

Ordered my Watch 4 Classic BT in black at the end of August and it still has not shipped. Been delayed three times. Then I randomly get a watch 4 black band shipped to my door that I did not order and watch is still on backorder with no shipping date. Samsung no help either.
Anyone having this issue? Or am I just getting the run around?

Only reason I have not canceled is because I was able to use Samsung credits. Only paid $40 for the watch. Maybe that's why. They know I didn't pay anything for it. Lol
