I fee very fortunate to have had a smooth, fast, order experience.
I did not get the back-order email which I was dreading, but days later the phone arrived.
I carefully unpacked it, activated it, and I've used it very heavily every day since. It's been trouble free and just terrific. Battery life is excellent, yet less (as expected) than my Galaxy Note II, for those wondering.
Anyone that's had lots of computers smartphones and other tech gear knows how rare this kind of experience is.
The more I learn about it's nuances, the better I like it, and I was already thrilled.
After owning a mind boggling array of phones over the years, this is the one phone that has everything I want, and nothing I don't.... simply amazing.
I'm sending positive thoughts out to all who are waiting, and hope that your's arrives soon.
