Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Well I didn't order mine online because I am due for an upgrade and all through October I was told I could upgrade on 1 November. I was counting the hours for that day to come. On 1 November I'm outside the shop waiting for them to open, sweaty palms, nervousness, just imagining what its gonna be like to have my Note.
When they open, I am told that MTN have changed their policy. They changed it on 31 October! Now I cannot upgrade in the same month but only after the date that I am due, which is 07 November.
So sad. I was peeved and dissapointed. So now its another whole week of waiting. I've forced myself to stop thinking about it. I'll just take it easy and check on their website for when I am eligible to upgrade...Its just a phone, I keep telling myself.

HTC Sensation has gone in for repairs.
Galaxy Note 2 is a whole week away.
Back to my Nokia N72.
Dark days indeed, I tell you.

Really I feel for you, and the truth is if and when you holding it in your hands it can only do what your previous phone did. Think it's a mental thing.
 
Just got word from FNB that my Note 2 will be dispatched within 24 hours.
Can't wait.

This is the reason I hate buying online. Just cannot wait. If I buy today I want it today.

And so, after pestering poor Richard again, it seems my order was not part of the lot dispatched...but he will follow up and let me know:mad:. Although this was a really good deal I'm getting frustrated with the process, having to wait a week sofar and not have any set dates is driving me insane!
 
Flip just found out I can only upgrade in April 2013, dammit i Want this phone will it still be an awesome phone than or would something else take its place ?

Same boat, going to phone Richard on Monday. Think mtn is out of stock. Going to be a long weekend
 
Lol at all the drama Queens :D

I know, I know:o....but being stuck with a BB8520 that doesn't even get proper reception anymore doesn't make the wait easy:cry: and following this phone since the first rumours started, it's REALLY difficult to wait for all that awesomeness to arrive

You're lucky. My upgrade is only due in Feb 2014.
Lucky for me FNB are understanding, and let me get the toys I want when I want them.
 
Seems like MTN have reverted to the "you can upgrade in the same month you are due". They got alot of flack from customers...I hear.
So anyway, can I also brag now. I too have the Note 2 in hand. Ran away from work to get it. I'm chuffed.


Now can we discuss the actual phone?:D I need to get used to the air view thing. Its putting all dots on my page.
 
When I just got the phone I was getting nearly 6 hours screen on time. Now I get much less.
I suspected is because I loaded llama and activated Google now.
Did this affect anyone else's battery life?

It does affect mine but not much. As long as I can get through the day doing whatever I want with my phone, I am happy.

What kind of screen on time are you getting. Mine nearly halved. I charge my phone every night regardless so it doesn't really matter to me. But there are cases when that little extra juice is useful. Like last night I was out late and my phone just managed to make it through the night.
