hi Grimspoon ,
(i referred in my previous post, about week ago..:)
that Cellucity was selling Sview for R799 and if you ask for discount, they should give it to you for R599 .!!
(thanks to "selago "for tip )
i got the black Sview cover from them ..paid R599.!!
(hope they still have it at that price.)

Even at R599 it is an insane rip of the rapage kind. Seriously disappointing that Samsung thinks their accessories deserve to be so overpriced.

The only reason these cases can be justified is if they are launched with wireless charging that Samsung has promised to roll out as part of the official GN3 accessory lineup.

Guys, help me out.
I need to decide on an operator for this beast of a phablet.

I'm most often in the Jhb North and West Rand areas.
Which operator has the best LTE, and general data coverage in theses areas?
My current MTN BB is often on EDGE. I believe MTN refarmed a lot of spectrum in this area(around their head office) to their LTE network, sacrificing the 3G network and user experience. At Flora Clinic this morning, I was on EDGE, as most other days. Not sure if this is peculiar to BB or specific to the network.

My Galaxy Tab 2 is on Vodacom, and I very often lose connectivity ("no network available"). This is so bad that I have stopped using the data network at home, so always on Wifi (Telkom Mobile). Now this is a waste of 2 Gb Vodacom data every month.

I used to have good Cell-C data coverage, but haven't been on their network for the past 10 months, so not sure if anything has changed.

Telkom Mobile is generally good in this area, but when I move around, I find myself roaming. Roam often in the Randburg, Sandton areas. Now this is not good if I get 5Gb of on-net data, but only 200Mb all-network data.

For those with the LTE version, what's your Note3 experience been like in terms of speed and data consumption?

Can't really speak for LTE, but with Cell C I regularly get HSDPA+ signal in those areas, especially compared to the normal EDGE reception that I used to have.
 
Is the Autopage Vodacom Note 3 the LTE one?
No details on their offer, on website
 
Picked up a capdase cover and screen protector for R169 today, couldn't find a Sview cover so saved myself some dosh.
 
Has anyone with screen protectors found any difference in how the s-pen feels and acts on the screen? (as opposed to a bare screen)
 
Anyone using the Smart Remote For Galaxy s4 on the note 4? its in the Samsung Apps Store under utilities.

And clash of clans?

I am testing it out and can't say I have noticed any difference. Maybe feels a little more tactile but doesn't bother me yet.

Thanks man

Sweet. This is the first phone in ages that I have decided to put a screen protector on. Normally I can't stand them.

Luckily the chick at the store stick it on perfect for me. Having the spen makes me wonder if it may scratch the glass, hardly visible im sure but scratches none the less.
