Come again?  Nothing you said made sense.

Typing Swype and a small box can kill a word or two.

 

Long hand...The Note Edge has rural roaming, but most 1st time device's have MFG flaws, and the price is way too high.

 

The lackluster screen of the Nexus 6 leaves a lot to be desired, for the price.

Friday I will have to evaluate all three, but for a better screen, and rural roaming the Note edge has my attention.

 

I wanted a larger screen, but dual speakers and a mediocre screen is mehat that price.

 

I tried to edit,and could not then I got busy at work

I thought both phones had rural roaming but the Note Edge has carrier aggregation? I may be remembering wrong though.

I just hope BB gets it for Sprint soon... I am getting anxious.  I always buy though BB because I like the geek squad protection, even if, they are charging a deductible now.  And I currently have about $200 phone credit with BB. but some of that expires at the end of Dec.

Just curious but why go through BestBuy when they don't cover lost or stolen when Sprints does?

Because with Sprint you still have to deal with the 3rd party insurance company not directly with Sprint. my wife had an issue with her phone, and they required it to be sent in to be repaired. where as with geeksquad I get to keep my phone until the replacement comes in. they used to give you a loaner phone, if your phone was completely Dead, but they stopped that which I also don't like. And geeksquad is still lower priced.

Fair enough. Both have their perks I see. I used to have Geek Squad insurance but never hopped on it when they added the deductible. I never used a claim to repair a phone though. It was peace of mind really.

Best Buy also has their "phone freedom" promotional gift card for upgrades, if you signed up early in the year for it.

I signed up both my brother and mom for this promo and they give you a 50 dollar gift card when you buy and sign a contract at the Best Buy store. You can use it towards the payment of your phone.

 

Still have mine but will pass on the upgrade since I dont want to pay $299 for the phone plus taxes plus activation fee ~ $394 total

I got the same message, lets hope this is resolved quickly. I personally am in no hurry. I still need a bit of time to sell my G3.

I like my N5 and wonder if I can find it in a store to play with it. This or the Note Edge for me....I want rural roaming bands or I would consider the Note 4! I need to see if the screen lack luster nit performance will be a deal breaker.

 

Loving the speaker and battery/screen size even though it lags behind the Note 4 it beats the Note Edge in the battery department. I found a store that claims to have them a day ago hopefully I can try both units out. I feel that the Note edge is way over priced, but the rural roaming and better performance for 6.00 more on easy pay evens things out just a bit!

 

I already ordered a Nexus 6 case, and now I may need a Note edge case....ROFL....decisions decisions. Anyone want to help me just pull the trigger on buying Lollipop 5 and the N6 with lack luster screen, and camera performance over the Note Edge based on the reasons I may get the Note Edge?

No, that is incorrect.  The Sprint variant Galaxy Note Edge does not support CCA/RRPP roaming bands.

The display on the N6 is amoled, so they always tend to be less bright than other comparible screen techs. But if your into the best video playback experience, Amoled takes the black level cake.

 

Also it allows other cool stuff like active display without draining battery (ask any moto X user its awesome)

 

Another thing, as AJ mentioned rural CCA/RRPP support as well.

 

The only real advantage I see in the note edge is the Carrier Aggregation support which is awesome for showing off your e-penis, but not much more. The curved display definitely fall into the gimmicky category, at least for now, and dont bother with it if your left handed.

 

One last thing...Pure Android.

I just tried all 4 sprint stores and none of them have the nexus 6 or note edge in stock yet. Google and Motorola really dropped the ball. This is probably the worst phone launch in history.

Both items are currently Direct Ship only. The Nexus 6 press announcement said as much. You can visit a Sprint store to order it.

 

" Nexus 6 will be available beginning Friday, Nov. 14, in Sprint direct ship sales channels, including Sprint Stores, Sprint Business Sales, Web Sales and Telesales at 1-800-SPRINT1."
