Not me, Note Edge is a step back, IMO, smaller battery, a bit of a weird design and slightly smaller display.

Very happy with my Note 4 :D
I tend to agree with you on that. I see so many people getting rid of their Note 4s to get the Galaxy Edge. I'm very happy with my Note 4, it's definitely a keeper.

Indeed.

I mean if the Note Edge is what we got alone after the Note 3 then I would have gone with the Edge, but why leave your Note 4 for an Edge? I don't fully see the benefit of the Edge display (for me personally) it's simply not enough to get me to dump what is essentially a better phone (Note 4) for it.

I must say though, the Edge is a stunner and i fully understand if one gets the Note Edge if coming from any other phone other than the Note 4. But from Note 4 to Note Edge? Makes no sense, like going from a 2015 BMW M3 to 2015 M4, you lose 2doors but still the samething, the latter is just less practical.

Just a word of advice:

I wouldn't mention that I urgently need the cash if I was selling something, people tend to take full advantage of that when negotiating the price and you may get ripped off quite a bit.

Sorry to hear that you have to sell your Note 4.

Anyone experiencing dl/ul issues on vodacom when you only have H in the signal bar? I experience this all the time, surfing the web, playing games online etc. If the signal is on H its rediculous, nothing loads even though the apps are open eg. if i load myBB on chrome and ive got H it will just not load. If i move to a area where H+is, suddenly it's loading as it should. As soon as i go to 4g or H+ everything all of the sudden loads and carries on. Can it be a regional thing?

Yeh. Me too. But H is as useless as E. This is not specific to the Note 4

Its been like this for the past 4 or so months but its much more notable on my note 4, hence the question. Come to think of it its been like this since we got pathetic lte in our region. Don't get me wrong lte is the best and all but it should be done right, having 1 bar of signal is nothing to brag about... And thats on a good day

In my area you either have E or 4G... nothing in between.

In my area we have H+ constantly and E but I only see E when going down the stairs, everywhere else in the house is full H+, there doesn't seem to be LTE right now though, but I get LTE at work, was getting speeds of 45Mbps D/L and 17Mbps U/L yesterday.

At my Dad's place in Bedfordview I get what you get Fanie, E or 4G, nothing else, its such a frustration really.

It is, when I first moved in the place I'm staying now I had the Note 3, the non LTE version... was the worst 3 days of my life while I waited for telkom to sort out my phone line so I can have wifi :)

Anyone here using a CD slot phone mount in their cars or another car holder they can recommend?
