[Christian 5G]

Did you guys shipped it back with headphones?

Here is the thing, Android is all over the place.

I can have a super charged Evo or Supra but it will never drive as a BWM or Ferrari out of factory.
no comfort, no luxury feeling to the driving experience.

point is the note 5 is fast, beautiful, but the Android OS is just terrible FOR ME. everything seems so blah 90% of the apps are just ugly looking, when you touch an iphone app it just opens like magic is right their it doesn't feel force, when you do the same thing with android even if is a little faster everything feels forced.

i am staying with Apple.

When someone uses Apple Speak terms like Beautiful or Magic they lose all credibility with me.

I wouldn't mind betting he'll have a sleepless night over that one lol.

I got the email but they haven't activated my eligibility yet, even though they received the phone two weeks ago and I got the email saying "thank you" 5 days ago.

What exactly did they make you do to receive the $100 play credit? Just the receipt or did you have to do someother stuff on the actual phone?

Sorry for the very late reply. I just returned the phone then submitted the receipts when they told me it was ready. I just received the Google Play $100 code via email today and they said my extra $100 check for doing a trade in is approved but could take 6-8 weeks.

This turned out to be a great deal since I got $200 extra for my trade in from Verizon plus the two $100 offers from Samsung. I'm really hoping Samsung Pay comes to Verizon so I can get in on the free wireless charger or case promo.

BINGO! $100 Google Play credit today and another $100 coming for trading in my junker iPhone. Now the owner of two Note 5s.

How long did it take for you to receive the 100 google play credit? I just traded in my iphone for the Note 5 today and submitted my receipt for the up to 120 dollars payments they will make.

Longest part was 2 weeks for them to verify the test unit I sent back. Surprisingly, it said 8 to 10 weeks for the rewards but I got the Google Play credit a week after submission. YMMV though since I was one of the early birds to receive and return test unit after it only taking a week to impress.

Got my $100 trade-in check today. Best phone on the market is virtually free at this point ($396 Verizon subsidized upgrade while keeping unlimited data with the benefit of no plan price increase for 2 years, $200 Verizon trade-in on an old 2008 phone, this $100 Samsung trade-in and $100 Google Play credit from Samsung).

I am looking to get the payments (up to 120) , 100 dollars for trading in my iPhone and the 100 dollar Google play credit. Mine is still pending
