Well... I love my phone. I don't know what to say, I mean, I just do! I've been thinking about it and it's like.. why are we so specpical and specific? That's why we loose the technological battle.. we are too specific and detailed. I mean sure there is a microscopic fraction of a pixel that is dark on dead center of my screen and there is a slight gap on the top between the speaker grill and the white rim, but so? We bonded tonight. Don't discriminate again this amazing phone because of such small things that might be strange or slightly f'ed up, because overall, it's the most advanced and speedy pocket cellular device available in the universe.

You know what made me REALLY love this phone? This morning when I wanted to turn the TV on to watch the news and the remotes were all the way on my computer desk. I picked up my phone and turn the TV on and got my news fix.
This phone is awesome! :good:
I love your phone too.. Can I have it?!? I could always use a spare. lol
I wish I had a chance to check out the remote control features but I don't ever watch TV on a real TV anymore in real-time. I always watch shows on 1channel or tvmuse. I use an app called unified remote to control pretty much everything on my computer. Spotify, Youtube, Netflix even use it as a mouse and keyboard if your laptop isn't on your lap but close by

That was how I've used my previous devices...man was I excited to see the reintroduction of IR though. With 4 kids, remotes are misplaced (or hidden) on an hourly basis, so it's nice to have complete control in my pocket TBH I loved my phone before I even met it... it sleeps closer to me than my wife now
I wish I could love mine.. First phone had a gap I could fit my thumb nail in.. replacement has 8 stuck white pixels, some brighter then others so I'm sure it's like 30 stuck pixels. Thinking about an s4 now

Luckily, you don't need to watch much TV to enjoy the remote control. Just visit a local watering hole or restaurant and enjoy the sheer comedy of watching their employees figure out why the TV's keep turning on and off. :highfive:

I was always convinced there was a remote troll that used to come and hide your remotes on you so you couldn't find them when you stepped away

This is the exact opposite of me. I have gone through 10 years of pdas and cell phones combinations looking for that one device that would cover both and give me a pc like experience. now i have it.
It is so much quicker to whip out my phone and get info while others are booting/logging into their laptops atmeetings.
Back on topic: guess it would be gaming. I'm getting older now and just don't game as much now that my kids are all pretty much grown up but playing asphalt 7 on here is a trip.

I actually prefer tapatalk to my PC now, and I do a fair amount of browsing while I watch TV. My phones have been my primary source of music playing for quite awhile, I have about 11gb of music, 32gb SD card. Surprisingly you can watch a movie on the phone pretty easily, my complaint is the lack of a front speaker, this is a glaring omission to me, they want us to use our smart phones for all kinds of media, but you have to cup your hand behind the speaker to hear it. We have front facing cameras, give me a speaker, too.

Are there substantially louder phones out there? This is the loudest phone i have had and usually people remark on how loud it it is.

Yes or No and why. I'm on the fence right now and really wanna know what it's like walking, sitting down and operating a huge phone.
If you can operate a Note 2 you can operate this phone. It is a bit hard to use with one hand but you can with some getting used to it
I would trade 1 handed use for screen any day. How often are you stuck with just 1 hand to do everything? 3% of the time maybe?
I am very comfortable using the phone. I thought size might be a factor but it's not. It is a pleasure to use.
I would imagine using it as a small tablet is comfortable, but are you guys using it as a phone by itself? As in holding it up to your head? Or do you pair a bluetooth device to make calls?

Yes, I use it as a phone holding it to my head. I bought a bluetooth device thinking I would use that as a handset but it remains unused.
Are there any issues with the other side hearing you? While on my note 2, if I'm not talking in normal/loud voice, the other person may complain they can't hear me very well (or maybe it's just this particular restaurant in specific). Since the XZU is so long, it'll go WAY past where your mouth is.

No complaints as of yet.
I don't have the largest hands and I can type in landscape with very little effort. It is hefty, but since it's so slim, you don't really notice. I've made a few phone calls and I'll admit, it looks strange, but doesn't feel unnatural.
Sent from my C6802 using xda app-developers app
No issue for me, if still comfortable for me.
I can make calls with it no problem. No need for a bluetooth device at all unless you want one.
My biggest concern actually is using the phone as a music player. The audio jack is on thw side so it might be too tight on the pants. And while driving, it might be impossible to switch between tracks with one hand lol
I wish android implemented swipe gestures on the screen to wakeup. Its almost effortless and is an elegant solution especially if your phone is idle on a table top

Coming from iPhone 5, I need some adjustment to typing on this device. However, browsing websites and reading articles from Current and Buzzfeed is great, it has that book-reading feel to it. In fact, the big ass screen makes it a pleasure.
It's easy to hold with one hand but making phone calls made me feel awkward, and a little bit embarassed.
I feel like I made the right choice to return to android with this device. I wish it has tablet capacity battery though.

The audio jack on the side is ridiculous - sony did this on XSP too (sony seems to be good at spoiling decent devices ), especially on a "smartphone" this big :silly:
I'm also getting an XZU in couple of weeks, and if using audio cable while the phone is in my pocket proved impossible, I think the workaround is using the wireless bluetooth.. Sounds like it defeat the purpose of a fully-waterproofed audio jack, but some compromise must be made, huh
First look I worry about the size, now I love the size. Inside my pocket no problem for walk, sit and run. I put my note 2 and zu together with my jean pocket or short paint is ok. No doubt.
One hand operate no problem for me. Because I m the big hand.
When incoming call also no problem, answer without bluetooth. Now I won't worry the size only how to root my device.
One more think is this device suitable for male better than female. When my wife hold it look like holding a M16.

I found the Note 2 too awkward to use so I sent it back. If I had issues with that would this device be even worse?

It was partly the size but more just its general handling, reaching across the screen even though I tried clustering stuff on one side of it. I had a Galaxy Note sometime prior & I got on with that reasonable well & though the Note 2 was bigger of screen I still thought I would be OK with it.

Hi, first I want to apologize because I don't know where to post. I thought Accessories section was appropriate.
After searching all over the internet for weeks trying to find some device that attach phone to laptop I could not find anything. Actually I found two, one looked way to bulky and had mixed reviews and the other I liked (Kickstarter project: Sidecar) but these products never gets made for non-Apple products. I was not surprised there.
I could just get a kickstand case or a portable stand but I didn't want to do that since I don't always work on a desk and I also spent my case money on Spigen Slim Armor S-View. Actually, this case is a necessity. The clip was designed to work with this case but I can see how I could modify it to work with other cases.
Anyways, I decided to do-it-myself. After lot's of prototypes, sandblasting, drilling, and superglue, it actually turned out really good. It clips on and off smoothly with no effort but it stays on securely. I can even lift my laptop and travel across the room with it and it stayed on. I was impressed. It also worked as a portrait-mode kickstand in two different angles but landscape mode didn't work so well. But the fact that it doubles as kickstand was a nice little bonus. One thing I don't like was that it covered quite a big chunk of my display since the Note3 is so massive. But to me it works because my screen resolution is 3200x1800 and the convenience of this set-up is just perfect work-environment for me. Especially with Samsung's SideSync software. SideSync lets you control phone with laptop keyboard and mouse, drag and drop, and other stuff. Really cool.
I'm going to post some pictures, let me know what you think.
I just don't get it...:banghead:

Im sorry but what is the point from hanging you phone this way and blocking part of your laptop screen !
Sent from my SM-N900 using Tapatalk 2
Yea, it wouldn't be that bad of an idea if it didn't block half of your screen. Why not make it so it clips outside of the screen instead of in front of it?
Hmm I made a replied to thread but it gave me an error.
Anyways I just wanted to say thanks for replying. I agree the screen covering is a bummer but it actually gives me a more real estate in dual screen set up with SideSync. It boosted my work flow even if it was just to play a movie while doing repetitive work. I can play movie on the laptop as well but that drains my battery from 10 to 3 hours which is not long enough to finish work. But if only it didn't cover up the screen....
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
My question is, if you're going to take up part of your screen with the phone, while using SideSync, why not just show the phone's screen on the laptop, and then size it a bit smaller, as shown on the SideSync webpage instead of clipping it to the front of the screen? At least that way you could move the visual representation of the phone around if you wanted to.
I tried the phone screen on laptop but it is a little laggy. Not bad but I want smooth experience. Using mouse and keyboard on phone screen has zero lag.
nope.
I applaud you for the ingenuity. I'm a big fan of DIY projects, but this is a very specific to your personal needs piece of work. Got me inspired though. Might model and print a clip that hangs it on the side of my screen. Problem is getting sidesync to work fully on thinkpad.
I used dual-sided suction cups back when I was tethering my network to my iPhone.

I have a gear Fit, but was considering getting a Neo as well. The Fit is pretty functional, but I'm wondering how well people like talking from the Neo as well.
I have the gear 2 neo connected to my note 3. All I can say is quite a few apps don't install. A lot of bugs people are having with random things not happening. There is next to none support and overall modification of the system is minimum. I would wait till it gets better or the devs figure out how to load android.
---------- Post added at 05:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 AM ----------
Also the sound production is very well far as talking to and hearing people. The speaker is sufficiently loud enough in most places you would have a general face to face conversation.
All apps have worked fine for me. Some are just plain junk. For stock functionality works well

Notifications are Great!
I really like the Gear Neo w/my Note 3. As mentioned though, it will get better once more support is there. I think they finally got root for it, but not able to install android on the Tizen watch yet. I just want Google Now instead of Svoice on it really. And offline voice recognition would be nice.
Previously, I was using it as a fitness tracker (heart rate and calorie tracking), but I stopped because I can get a fair guess at my calories. It was doing well, but would occasionally stop during my workout. I played around on a treadmill at the gym and the heart rate numbers matched pretty well, so it seems pretty accurate.
It looks great, I like watches, and the notifications/calling/texting allow me to pull out my phone less.
I've got a gear one and use the talk function and s voice for text all the time. Especially handy if you have the Zerolemon brick! I tend not to use the smart apps. Is the wake shake better with the gear 2?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
I've got the Neo, I do like it MUCH better than the Gear 1, but as everyone points out apps are limited. As an android dev I can tell you the SDK and tools for developing ar extremely limited and unreliable, which is probably why we are not seeing high adoption. Samsung seemed to go out of the way to alienate the existing developer base.
No thanks, waiting for Moto360.

I have the Neo for about a week and so far it's pretty good. This is my first Samsung gear watch and it's a little disappointing to see that Samsung hasn't come very far in their 2nd iteration. I had an Amazon gift card to pay for it but I wouldn't buy it for $199. My biggest issue has been the annoyance of having to push the button to see the time. I am spoiled by my Pebble which has an always on display and twice the battery life. Overall I think the Pebble is a better implementation of a smart connected watch.

You don't have to push the button to see the time, you can go to settings, display, wake up gesture and set it up to on, and your watch will turn on every time you move your arm closest to your face or towards you.

I had that feature turned on for a few days and it bugged me because it would light up the display at times when I wasn't wanting to see it. Many times during normal movement it interprets the wrist motion as wanting to see the watch when that is not the case. It really went nuts when I was playing golf! Not a great implementation.

I love the idea of the 360, but I'm worried the novelty of a circular screen will wear off quickly and the lack of screen space for notifications will get annoying. I'm a big LG fan (despite getting the Z2) but their watch just looks boring. The Samsung is cheaper, has a higher resolution screen and looks nicer, so loathe as I am to give Samsung any more money after two miserable phones with botched software updates, they might be the option for me.

From early reports it seems it's the same screen as the Galaxy Gear, which wasn't brilliant in direct sunlight (which you can kind of understand in something where battery life is important)
I have a Pebble Smartwatch now and am planning on buying the Moto 360. I can understand how the novelty of a circular screen would wear out and the lack of extra screen space might get annoying but I feel that if we just see it as a watch and a companion to your phone then it should be fine. I personally want the Moto 360 because it's the nicest looking of the 3 watched IMO. It's going to be a device that is on my wrist for the world to see every time I'm out so I want it to look damn nice.
Do you know if the Samsung will be able to play music independently of a phone like the Gear 2 and Neo?
I want a smart watch that I can wear while running that will provide GPS as well as let me listen to music via bluetooth headphones.
Is there such a device?
Thanks

heh, how will anyone ever get used to the idea of charging a watch everyday or at the end of the week or replacing the battery every month.
We don't do it now, have not done it since automatic watches came out, decades ago.
There is no killer app for smart watches as yet.
As far as the OP goes, i will watch this space for another couple of years. Its too immature right now, kinda like android phones back in 2012, ie expensive toys.
Does the Samsung work with non Samsung phones? If you go over to the Google playstore they have both the LG and the Samsung up already but the Samsung says its for Samsung phones only while the LG says its for Android phones.
I'm going to wait until the first few get shipped and see how they fair in the real world. I ordered my Nexus 5 day one and regretted it. Great phone, assuming you're a walking battery pack.
