I flashed the new firmware update through ODIN last night and the battery life is already much much better!
Which firmware?

N920CXXU2AOJ5
One of the noticeable things about it is the Optimise option (seen under Settings > Battery) which prevents applications from waking the phone from deep sleep. Basically its a bit like what Greenify does but built into Android.
If you head over to the link below and you'll find lots of people:

Providing you get the right model you should be fine. From what I understand the N920C (or CD) will be your safest bet but if you're only concerned about 3 then the N9208 is another option.
I'm on 3 and have a N920C on order and I'll be happy to let you know how it works when it arrives.

I just ordered the 64gb Silver SM-N920 from gsm.me.
I got the confirmation email but that's all. Placed order @ 7:50am today.
How long before you heard from them & how?
Ta
I though silver was out of stock?
I set up an account beforehand and used online chat/email to sort out shipping. They set up an invoice which was sent by email. It had a payment link for credit card payment. I also requested shipping details by email, someone else used WhatsApp.
This was all done Thursday afternoon (but late for them) and they were closed on Friday. Order was completed on Saturday. A shipping email arrived on Sunday. Now I'm tracking on DHL with alerts.
Others have had shipping within hours of order being placed and in stock.
Don't yet know if I've been stung for duty and it will be here today or tomorrow.

Thanks for that.
I just been back & the Silver is out of stock but it was showing as in stock when I placed my order, so maybe I got the last one?
I've sent the an on line form question.
Let us know how you get on with duty, if that's ok?

sorry to burst the bubble hehe but 99% you will need to pay the duty becuase that company sticks the bloody invoice on the front of the package so you can clearly see the cost of the goods...

I'm expecting to pay it so not raising any hopes. Did you get an email about the duty?
