No more power to do that, otherwise I would. Part of the reason I relinquished the duties. Just didn't have time to devote for lots of organization.
Power completely not necessary. Actually anyone could've done it; you just happen to be the first person who came to mind.
Is the screen bigger than 5.7 in and is it going to be a larger version of the S4? Are the rumors true about a premium build version?
Hey thanks Mr. Ed! :wavey: Good to see you again.
What size screen? Different screen size for different carriers?
Flexible screen or no?
Ram? CPU?
Plastic body? Metal body?
Will they have different high end and low end models?
Can I have one for free since I own 4 different Samsung devices?
Are they going to have an "active" version that's waterproof like the S4?
I'm interested in the dimensions (mm please), so that it can be compared to the current Note 2 and other devices. A measurement of the screen dimensions and how much gap between the edges of the picture and outer bezel are helpful too. It might help us size up the whole package?
I'm not a big fan of TouchWiz - especially more than ever with what I consider to be borderline invasive features (SmartStay, S-Voice, etc.) --but it would be interesting to see if it is running anything new or different software wise, any new features, etc?
The rumor of a camera button interested me. If it has one, how does it feel, how well does it work, is it 2-stage, etc? (though I just had a fun idea, how about the S-Pen button act like a remote for the camera and can control the shutter action, letting you wirelessly click your photos)
Something to float by the Samsung rep. Will there be subsequent offerings of the Note 3 with other options or carrier differences that should be available to all? (thinking like the stupid new ATT Galaxy S4 "Active", The "Zoom" variant, or different colors) --durn beat by ovrrdrive!
How soon after it is out will we be able to root it?
Is reception the same as a S4 or better?
Will Samsung finally offer wrapped text?
Will carriers offer different versions at first release?
Needing one with gorrilla glass if available.
Will it have eMMC 5.0 storage chip?
Pocketability is my main concern. Will it fit in the front pocket of a pair of slacks like Dockers?
First, thanks Ed. How 'bout checking the chip, Octa or Dragon? Also, what's your overall opinion of the feel in your hand, did they round the corners...i.e S4? Lastly, a photo would be great if possible!!!
Thanks Ed, I would like to know a few things please;
- Snapdragon 800 ?
- Battery size ? 4,000mAh ?
- Overall size of the new phone, same footprint no bigger than the N2, but larger screen by .02" ?
- Design matching that of the S4 ? Or a radically whole new style ?
- Is the Note 3 thinner and lighter than the Note2 ?
And whats with the rumors of different sized Note 3's ? Will the main U.S. version be 5.7" screen ? But new rumors suggest each carrier will get their own different size, one carrier 6", one a 5.7", one a 5.5". Sort of like back when the U.S. carriers got the Galaxy S2, they each got different sized and shaped phones, I hope that's not the case.
I carry my GTab7.7 in the front pocket of my dockers almost daily, I don't see a 5.7 phone being an issue, so long as your dockers are not dancing-pants tight.
to Ed-
My "wonders"-
Battery size and life, is it removable/upgradeable?
Is the screen to big to do things one-handed? (This was almost an issue with my GNex)
Will it work with a docking station?
Thanks!
I guess my question didn't get translated to this thread, but my main question:
Size comparison to Note 2 (and overall physical dimension measurements, if possible)
Screen size confirmation
Also Ed, the obvious, which carrier variant is your friends? We all hope the call comes today.
Well - any updates - inquiring minds want to knowJust waiting on the call when he picks it up.

Talked to him this morning. Unfortunately Samsung is not letting them leave the premises with the phones until September.
Going to get as much info as I can in the meantime.
Still waiting...but I am going to go out on a limb here and guess that in hand won't happen until after Sept 4th's unpacked.
The did this same thing on the S4.
Maybe it's me but wouldn't after the unpack be a moot point?
I'd love to find out if the rumors are right about late September release
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Release Date On Store Shelves Blurted Out By Retailer? | sidhtech
A late Sept. release would be cool. I have to wait until the next Nexus is announced....which should'nt be that far after the Note 3. By then I'll make my decision. If the next Nexus will be based on the G2, it will be a hard decision. If not....it will be Note 3 easily.
thanks guys for keeping the thread going. i have been ill but getting better.
between dr appointments i will talk to him over the next few days i am sure of it.
Glad to hear you're feeling better! :thumb:

typically he receives a device it releases 60 days later...which does line up with end of Sept
