The way my invoice was written had a lot to do with it and now it is a superb bargain.

How was your invoice written if you don't mind me asking?

It said what it is with a nominal value and gift item non commercial value.

Where is yours coming from?

My Smart Switch transfer of Note 4 is nearly done!

Mine's being shipped from the UK - I was just curious of how you got away with the duty.

Unfortunately VAT has to be paid on gifts over a certain amount. Cosimo just got lucky and you didn't.

I wonder how quickly the United Arab Emirates (XSG) firmware will be updated, hope it's better than BTU on EU devices cause that disgusting slow.

Can't wait, coming from a s6 edge...

I think you'll find that it will be much better.

Don't be surprised if you get a letter from Fed Ex/DHL in a few weeks asking you to pay duty.

That is the firmware I updated to when I mentioned the update earlier on in this thread. Have a look under Battery and you will see the App Optimisation settings. It basically stops apps that haven't been used in a while from waking up the phone.

Sorry if it's been asked before but how did you pay for the phone ? PayPal ? Credit card ?

You place the order on the website they will email you a link to make a payment though their credit/debit card facility.. Not PayPal

Highly recommend them they are very good I will order my phones from them in the future

Just order before Friday because Friday is a public day off

My £395 32GB SM-N910C Note 5 from ebay (ordered last Thursday using the £50 off code) should be arriving today, at the local DPD depot. If not sent out for delivery today, will go and pick it up myself :-)

Cosimo · 29 Oct 2015 at 07:51

What is there to say about this phone, sleek, fast, battery looks very good, a great move up from the Note 4.
