That's a good sell. That was how much I got from Best Buy, prior to the 1 year mark, but luckily it came with an additional $50, due to the Trade-in Plus addition.

is there a battery improvement on the 3 or is on par with the Note 2?

My experience has been almost identical to the Note 2. With average/normal usage, I can get up to 24 hours. Heavy usage can burn through the battery fairly quickly, although I've noticed that after playing some games the other day, it actually held charge longer than I noticed with the Note 2 (after playing games).

For me, normal/average usage is having gmail and work emails pushed automatically (and checking constantly), another email address pushing emails every 4 hours, constant text messaging throughout the day, a few social networking checks throughout the day, and a few phone calls.

That's a damn fine way to start the New Year!! I was going to stick with my Note 2 also. Was actually very happy and content, then my coworker got his and I was like............... I NEED that phone.

Congrats and enjoy!!

One handed typing is a little tough but this is the most bug free phone I've ever owned. No wanee any more updates. Works perfectly now.

You can push the keyboard to the left or right side.. So one hand typing is easier

Yup. And that is available on swiftkey keyboard now, also. I just use oem cuz of the number row and handwriting keyboard, but the one handed keyboard on either swiftkey or oem are awesome.

I know. Small hands. Can't hold phone and type. Thanks for the tip though.

Swiftkey just added the number row and it works awesome. The snowflake theme is pretty cool too.

Btw, to get the same battery life are you running the same screen brightness or are you able to have it brighter? On the note 2 i'm at 40% brightness and if i have it any brighter the battery drains way to fast.

I saw that mentioned, but can't find the setting.

I have it on auto all the time.

The number row is a waste. Instead of adding more characters for long press in top row of letters they just duplicate the numbers.

Also. How do you enable one handed typing format?
How do you enable suggestions but not auto substitutions? I use a lot of technical jargon.
