Galaxy note At&T at CES 2012

I wanted to show you guys the note that will be released soon for att. Also, there was a huge line of accesories not only from samsung but from other big companies

I was hoping you'd show some of the accessories also

Looking forward to more accessories here in US. Glad they did not change the external size.

Hi, thanks for the video.
Not very important, but did you get to see which firmware were loaded on those devices?

So they had an Otterbox for the Galaxy Note?!?!?

Anyone that went happen to get a pic of this? Any word on which versions they had? My last 2 phones had Otterbox cases, I don't know if there are any alternatives out there....

yes, they are making it. I spoke with otterbox at their booth and will be sending me one as soon as it gets released

Costco Galaxy Tab 2 7.0

Not sure if this is common knowledge here, but Costco sells this tab for 240$ with a case. Just figured I'd let y'all know.

Yes, it's been posted a few times. They also offer the tab 2 10.1 with case for 379.99 at selected stores.
.

Oh okay sorry for the repeat thread.
Mods delete this if you want.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I might be wrong but I think it is more of a pouch than the actual case. Costco has the same offer on the 10.1 for $379.99

It is just a pouch, but it works good for me.

Picked it up to try but looks like I'll be returning..
- No ad hoc WiFi support
- No standard USB port to charge (must use Samsung cable to USB charge)
- Nearly every Gameloft game doesn't support 7"
- A few EA games work but are a bit sluggish
I really like it otherwise and would recommend if the above do not matter, but they are deal breakers for me. I tried a 10" too and find that 7" is mo betta for a mobile device. 10" just too big for me.
Nice thing about Costco is easy to return.

There is a way for ad hoc support. Few forums on that topic. Can use a previous wpa_supplicant file and replace it. Won't get into logistics but the tab needs to be rooted and permissions changed on the file and using Wi-Fi Tether change to a device profile w/SoftAp and you got tethering wirelessly. FYI.
Too bad for proprietary charger and games but extremely mobile.

If you are rooted you can fix two of your four issues and the charger is like that with any tablet you get.

I rooted mine and love it. It works fine tethered to my thunderbolt.
As for games, i am not sure as i usevmine former and movies.

I could see how not having a standard USB port would bother people, but that's nothing new to Samsung. Chances are that when people are doing their research online that they will see that.
I bought mine from BJ's Warehouse last weeek as it was on sale for $229 with the offical leather samsung pouch. (Samsung sells the pouch for $49 but I would not have paid for that as a separate accessory).
The tab was $20 bucks off but I purchased an extended 2 year warranty for $20 which includes accidental coverage. That gives three years total warranty, including the Mfr one year warranty (without accidental coverage).
If you are going to buy form BJ's they only have a 15 day return period for tablets but I have never had any return hassels from them.
I gave my wife my Original Verizon Samsung Tab 7 and I think she is hooked now on it.

Also, that's a great deal you got. I paid full price ($250) from Best Buy with full insurance for a year ($80 (Includes idiocy protection... I mean accident protection), since it will be my main device for basically everything) and feel like I got a little jipped but can definitely live with it since this is a GREAT tablet.

Well, it is not advertised, but the same $239.99 + pouch at all Costco locations. I bought mine there last week, call ahead, alot of stores sold out over the weekend.

Prices in store for Costco are always lower than they are online for their electronics from what I've seen. It could also be related to specials that are running for certain time periods with the coupon booklets they send out.

Well I'm not an expert, but I do travel a bit and end up visiting a few Costco stores. There is no sale or coupon. Some stores have the 7 inch and some stores have the 10 inch, while others have neither. They both come with a sleeve. $239 for the 7 inch and $379.00 for the 10 inch. With the addition of sales tax and not wanting the sleeve anyway, I bought mine online YMMV.

So how does everyone here like their tablet so far? I can't tell if the screen is blurry using the chrome beta or if I just need new contacts (waiting for them to be shipped lol).

350$

Well My Note has a few noticeable scratches on the screen and a skinned body (did not like the white) I will start it at $200 today if I wanted something else with three batteries and a cradle battery charger and accept what the final offer would be. .

I saw an at&t unlocked note with tiny scratches put up for 450$ a bit early today here at xda ..so this pine being international version would fetch equally or higher good luck..

If I already did not have a 2014 I would be considering this option, remember........
It only has a 90 day warranty but you could purchase a 2 yr warranty with accident protection on the 16gb version for $45.96 at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004M5QPDK/ref=twister_B00EVEFQTQ
Yes, you can share your apps and games from Google play that you have already purchased on your account for free as long as the app is compatible with the new device.

so how long will tablet like that last? do i really need any protection plan? i am just wondering??
ok thats cool that i could do same things on both and can i send txt`s from tablet?

I wonder if these are all those ones with bluetooth connection problems that have been returned.
If so, and assuming bluetooth now works, I'd certainly be happy to buy one. In some ways a long warranty is a burden with these things; it makes you hesitant to root the thing.
I would just use it to death for the first little while. Most hardware faults will be obvious well before 90 days are up.

You would use it a bit without rooting it, be patient, and root it when you've had it a few weeks and used it hard.

No not better, the same but "Bigger".
The NotePRO is just 2 inches bigger than the Note 2014 with all the same specs Including S-Pen and the TabPRO is same as Note series just minus S-Pen and S-Pen features of course.
It's like a tape on repeat explaining the difference between the devices haha

I own a GT-N8013 and a SM-P600......
The 2014's screen is very nice, it's thinner and lighter, like the screen sleep and awake by opening the case, loving WiFi with AC connectivity.
I like it but I don't think I'm enjoying the experience as much because after having a GT-N8013 for a year there is a bit of a learning curve. The location of the buttons throws me off a little but I'm starting to get the hang of it.
Don't like the much thinner stylus, it feels like it will break it's so thin.
I guess I do like it but I would not recommend for someone to dump there old version Note 10.1 for the 2014 edition just to get the screen.

Google Cardboard (Galaxy S6 Edge)

So Like Many of You I upgraded from the Note 4, and the gear vr 1. I was hoping they would atleast have a date out for the vr 2 but it doesnt seem to be the case. So now im looking for sometype of vr function to hold me out in the mean time before i decide on a occulus or some alternative. anyway to my question , what is the best cardboard headset for the s6 edge? and will the curve screen mess up the vr effect?

I've got the kit from dodocase.com, it's essentially the cardboard kit. It works pretty well imho, the curved edges aren't noticeable, I think they're slightly outside of the field of view.

well it seems the Vr 2 launch is imminent the gods have heard my prayers pre orders start tommarow!

Istill have great hopes on this VR2, since S6 is gonna be a great succes, the amount of potential users is superior, so dev will gain interest on that market.

$250 !? this makes me wish the vr 1 wasnt so popular why the price bump up? is a added fan really worth $250 bucks?

I felt the same way... But it's supposed to be lighter, have the fan and the charging port. And it's supposed to be more comfortable.
I'm really on the fence lol

Over in the VR headset thread there is a guy that said that he has the Oculous headset right now and said the the samsung VR is going to be well worth the money. This pushes me more towards buying it in may haha

They are 199 now at best buy.

I owned a Note 4 with a Gear VR as well. Saw some great potential in it but 99% of the available content is crap. That's an area where the Oculus Rift will definitely be the better option. As long as there is no similar content for the Gear VR I'm holding my money back.
