**** The Official Note 5 thread ****

[jeezy85]

Mine is shipping tomorrow so a Monday or Tuesday delivery and I'll wait for it to be delivered.

How is it?

Very good so far defo worth the upgrade from note 4 imo. Battery life good too and feels good but I got a spigen case so feels better in the hand.

12h19m since last full charge and phone is currently on 22%.


You won't be disappointed

Another 64GB one from them arrived today over at XDA and now only gold left.

Lol. Just playing the waiting game now. Think I might buy a cheap Windows phone to play with until the Note 5 turns up.

Did you order from the guy you mentioned in the previous post? If so what's your expected delivery date?

 

[android-fan]

I ordered from eBay, hopefully should arrive mid week next week.

 

[BaZ87]

Sorry, I was asking specifically if you bought from the seller you mentioned. I ordered from him and have been given an expected delivery date of the 3rd November.

 

[android-fan]

Sorry yes, was the same seller.

I'm hoping it's delivered well before the expected date, according to an earlier post it was 3 working days.

Looking at the feedback for the Note 5 from this seller, they are praised for quick delivery.

 

[BaZ87]

Yea, hoping for the same. I did contact the seller to ask if he could send it ASAP which he said he would try but still advised that the official delivery times were 6-10 working days.

My order has been processed and now waiting for shipping details.

Guessing your order from Dubai will arrive before ours, which is meant to ship from the UK.

Should be here on Monday. You would have thought that yours would have been on the way yesterday, mine wasn't as they were closed.

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

 

[BaZ87]

Can anybody recommend a leather case/wallet for this? I had a Tetded case for my Note 4 and loved it but after 6 months or so it started to fall apart - I'm not sure how much of that was down to me though.

Not looked at cases as I'm continuing with an S View cover (ebay) for mine but take a look here:

Thanks for that, now I don't know what screen protector to get and whether to go for a skin too

I think I'll go for a carbon fibre skin but still get a Tetded case aswell and try not to drop it as much this time. I'm struggling with the screen protector though - most of those recommended on xda are only shipped from the US with ridiculous delivery charges.
