Gear VR is here for note 5
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung...hite/4637800.p?id=1219786370026&skuId=4637800
Ordering one soon,
in description it says "Galaxy S6 edge+ and Galaxy Note 5 require a software update from your carrier."
Do we already have that update or expect one soon? Let me know how it work outs if you get one.
Pe-ordered mine today from Best Buy. I'm also wondering and trying to find out about the updates. Hopefully AT&T won't drag their feet and release it soon.

Got my shipping notification from Best Buy today. Won't be long now
Got my Gear VR today. It is freaking amazing. If you're sitting on the fence, you won't be disappointed.

I've had one since Christmas and it works just fine with my note 5. Make sure you don't have anything related to oculus or gear VR disabled.

I love my gear vr. Mostly use it for movies. I love the ant theater watching the walking dead. Ha

Anyone else with one here feel like you're looking through a screen door with this thing?
I love it but I get this weird pixel layer that makes the very low resolution. Watching a 3d 1080p movie looks more like a 240 movie.
Anyone else?

I have the fix
Anything above 720p is a waste, that's the best resolution you'll get until 4k or higher screens on phones

I'm all for efforts to get the keyboard dock released, but your statements are nowhere near factual.
The dock has been released in less than a handful of countries around the world, and is a shipping product in even fewer.
It is not past release date either, as Samsung has refused to give any release date for the US dock.
Let's make sure we pressure them with accurate info and not make asses of ourselves.
What is the message all of you are getting after calling?
I was told by the representative that he will send a mail to supervisor for accessories... and that he too agreed that its been 2 months since launch of note 10.1... generally accessories are there on the day of launch... and that he will do best to esclate.

I called. They know nothing, in fact I could have asked a stranger on the street and would have gotten the same response, good times. I want this thing now dammit!

You're right! My bad.
Can anyone recommend a bluetooth watch that works well with our Note 2? Could really do with one for work as I can't really keep piping my phone out of my pocket to keep checking.
I'm looking only for basic features - caller id and sms preview!
Something that doesn't monster drain the battery etc!

Ohh yeah forgot to say... I'm UK based, so needs to be available in our little country!!!

The Pebble is not quite released yet but looks interesting..one that is out is the Metawatch.
I hve no experience with either...so YMMV
Found this review of three others HERE for your viewing pleasure!
I'm personally waiting for the Pebble that Steelyglint linked to be released, but in the meantime you can try the Sony Ericsson LiveView (£20 from play.com. £17 from amazon) It supposedly has some bluetooth connectivity issues but I didn't really notice any issues when I used it with my SGS2 (i9100)
However I don't know where I've put it and can't test it on my note 2, so I can't say how well it will work with it.
Also the wrist strap that comes with it looks crap.
Great minds think alike. I was just looking at a couple of Live Views on eBay and wondering about compatability. A few of those up for grabs between £15-20. Almost cheap enough to take a punt on I reckon
Found one other HERE but it's rather more expensive !

I'm on the same boat. I also got a 50% off coupon and I'm waiting for this dock and the bundle of 4 or 5 didn't flip covers, and it had been or of stock for over a month.
I'm also beginning to wonder if I'm ever going to get to use my coupon, or if Samsung will ever get it together and fix their supply chain problems.

did any of you ever get the dock? trying to use my 50% also, guess they don't want us using it on the $99.99 smart dock.

Nope... still waiting for this unicorn to reappear
FWIW, one of the Samsung accessory team reps at CES said that if the Smart Dock does not come in stock before the codes expire, to just call them when it does come in and they will honor the coupon. May work, may not work, but at least worth a shot.

Blasting them on FB for not honoring the coupon will always work (at least it should)
Supposedly mid February on amazon and Samsung's website.

Looks like amazon is starting to stock up on cases and screen protectors for the 2014 note 10.1, most of them have a release date of September 25th and October 5th. Anyone else excited ?

I noted that as well. As soon as I see a tablet, I'm going to order everything at once.
Yes!!!!! I'll need cases but will pass on the screen protectors.
Good sign!

I dont know how some of you do it going naked without a screen protector, I tried that on my original note 10.1 and got this super fine hairline cut in the glass and even though you had to hold it up to a the light on a certain angle to see it, I knew it was there and it always bothered me LOL
Ohh I understand, and I've been fortunate thus far and this would be like my 7th tablet....
Now my phones that slide in and out of pockets, and thrown around... They get screen protectors, always.
Although I would wait for the Spigen version, if they are making one, as they have an excellent product.
I'm using the Ultra Crystal version on both of our Note II phones.
Now that has a scratch in the protector that bugs me from time to time so I know how you feel.
Does the Note 2014 have gorilla glass? I've never used a screen protector on a tablet. Do you screen protector ppl get a lot of bubbles with them? It's hard a s hell to not get bubbles on cell phone protectors and it bugs me :/
I just don't get why Amazon doesn't have a pre-order page up for it AND why the hell the older GN10.1 hasn't dropped in price, it's still just $50 off.

best buy is still selling it for the same price they always have, **** the old nexus is still at some bestbuys i know and is selling for the exact same price as the new one.LOL
What ticks me off is if this were apple crap they would be doing pre-order garbage and if you want a Samsung product you get the back of the line attitude. Sorry this IS SAMSUNG and ITS WORTH IT!

Ordering
I would like a note 2014 but I would like to know the price first. If they want to sell them they should name a price so people can decide. I already sold my Asus tf700t and if the Note 2014 is too much I'll have to go with tye Asus tf701t. I'm willing to pay more for the note but how much more is the question.
For a tablet launching in 9 days its pretty friggin quite Samsung. I mean there are no leaks on which suppliers will have it and that is disappointing.

I suspect until we see a fire sale price on the current GN 10.1 its not releasing in the US. They need to dump the current stock first otherwise who the hell would buy it. Its night and day difference in specs.
I purchased this from Amazon today

Nice bundle, now if we only had something to use with it

It depends on what you want the sleeve to do for you. I have had other similar neo sleeves for tablets and they do the trick for transport and protection. But once out of the neo sleeve anything goes.
Finally 10/10 in the US, pre-orders start on Friday 9-27 at Amazon.com, Best Buy and other major retailers. $549.99 for 16GB WiFi and $599.99 for 32GB WiFi.
would be a really wondering thing if they add watch support for this tablet at some point, unless its already available? anyone know?

yep, it works just fine. Fun times.
ok, so still think my sony smartwatch 2 is much more useful at the present in terms of giving me useful notifications, and for some reason i only have like 6 apps available at the samsung store (probably b/c I'm using the note 10.1 international version not the USA Note 3). Still, i have the best of both worlds. My Sony watch for when running around with my xperia z1, and my galaxy gear watch which is wonderful somply for making and taking calls when paried with my note 10.1.
give us some more useful apps please samsung... would love a philips hue app for my watch.
