****The Official Note III Thread****

Thanks Spit!

How many mb/s is that transfer speed? Cant be arsed to work it out ha

- The 3.5GB file transfer equates to 28MB/s write.
- The 1.41GB folder of 2264 files equates to 20.4MB/s write.

Very respective speeds over USB3 writing compared to USB2. I take it that was to the built in storage?

Sounds good. Must resist!
Should get the same speed over an OTG cable and usb3 stick I guess?

 

[Spit]

It was to internal storage as I have no sd card installed yet.

For some reason I thought it was a 16gb device lol and was pleasantly surprised it's 32!

 

[Thomss]

That is good news! regarding the 32gb internal, I'm going for one but will probably keep my Nexus 4 too to stop me becoming a flashaholic like I was when I had a S2.

 

[Spit]

Mmm don't know what launcher to use. I like Nova but its not smooth when switching between screens for some reason!

 

[Thomss]

Tried Apex?

 

[_Jimlad_]

just called vodafone, chaps said they had it pop up and then pulled from the website same as EE?

he reckons o2 wont have it either,

anyone know the reason?

 

[Grrrrr]

<ignore>

 

[rtrm]

I ordered mine through EE over the phone, and was told I receive it today. Phoned up at lunch time, having not heard anything, and was told it hadn't been dispatched. Apparently they have them in stock, but I won't receive it until Friday

 

[Spit]

I was hoping for a USB3 to MicroUSB adapter in the box

 

[mrk]

How do you mean? You can use a normal MicroUSB cable on it anyway.

 

[Spit]

Oops, so you can lol

It appears that the European Note 3 that will only work on European sims:

Not good for those that travel out of Europe and like to change sims.

 

[horrorwood]

So whats the cheapest sim free price then?

What the hell.....

Now I need to find out if the Thai one works here??

 

[Spit]

Says it on the box. Euro sims only.

I'm upset

Right hand side the bezel seems warped and bezel extrusion isn't uniform, looks bent.
I didn't spent 619 on a badly made device.

would phones4u exchange it for a new one?

 

[Spit]

I would demand an exchange.

Screen on for 3 hours 15 mins, 15 mins Bluetooth calls. Played games and lots of installing.

60% battery left. Not bad for first charge.

 

[Spit]

Loving the flipboard blinkfeed thing when swiping up from the bottom of the screen. Very slick.

I've just used a Note II and am sold..

I ideally want it on Three, as for my area/work it gets the best data connection..

I see CPW have it up for pre-order on their website.. do they do the same deals in store, or does anywhere else give unlocked/unbranded phones with a three contract?
