You got my Galaxy Mega a couple of days ago. I have some concerns while playing with it hopefully S4GRU has some insight on the matter. Keep in mind I live in Orange County, Southern California. 1) I've noticed everytime the 4GLTE signal lights up, my phone signal bar drops to 1 bar. While when the 3G signal lights up, the bar goes to a normal phone signal range. 2) Lately people are unable to make direct calls to me. I usually receive a voice mail inidicating the missed call. I was hoping someone inside S4GRU can share some thoughts. I haven't spoken to a Sprint representative as of yet as I entrust that S4GRU usually provides a direct answer.

No idea, but on a relative sense; amazon wireless has shown a tremendous drop in contract pricing for at&t. I remember on its release the cost was $150. The last time I've checked it went down to $99 for new contracts. One Max (high-end phablet) seems more comparable to the Note 3 (high-end phablet) rather than the Mega (mid-range phablet). I concur. THe Note 3 has stolen all the thunder from the Mega. The Mega won't garner much hype as it will be release after the Note 3. You can tell from the number of posts for the Note 3 forum out weights the number of posts for the Mega. From a economics stand point, if the Mega gets less attention; sales won't be as high for the Mega. Thus, a drop of price for the Mega.

November 8. The countdown has begun. http://www.sammobile.com/2013/10/11/samsung-galaxy-mega-6-3-coming-to-sprint-on-november-8/ I don't know how trustworthy this website is, but this is the first time I've seen an established date. Seems there are multiple sources sourcing a single source, Evleaks.

Sounds about right. Speaking of prices...Amazon Wireless starting selling the Mega for AT&T at $150. Couple of weeks ago, it dropped to $130. As of now, for new contracts the phone sells for $113 and for upgrades it's $125. I'm sensing the lack of sales from other carriers may divert Sprint from selling the Mega. Any who...anyone have more upbeat news about the Mega?

Reporting in: 4G Wifi still functioning in Santa Ana and Garden Grove.

Did you tried it out at a AT&T or US Celluar store? The latest news I heard about this phone is that the unstable country of Egpyt is getting it before Sprint customers.

Any news on the release date for Sprint??? Can't believe US Celluar released the Mega before Sprint.

It's so quiet in here...must be all the humid / muggy weather we've been experiencing. Just to report in. I still have been experiencing 4G WiMax in the Garden Grove and Santa Ana region ranging from 0.8 mbps to 10 mbps. I have no luck in the Irvine and Arcadia area. Any luck with LTE users? I'm looking into upgrading my phone to the Galaxy Mega which is uses LTE.

EVO 3D user here. After months with no 4G in sight, the weirdest thing happened two weeks ago; I’ve been receiving 4G WiMax feeds around Garden Grove and Santa Ana. Especially around the Chapman / Brookhurst intersection point with Speedtest calling out 8Mbps and topping out at 12 Mbps. If I’m getting these speeds with WiMax, I wonder how well a LTE phone will perform.

FYI, no LTE in Garden Grove from my buddies iPhone5.

Evo 3D (WiMax 4G) owner here. Just to add,I haven't been getting 4G speeds for nearly 2 months. And to add another, there has been a series of drop calls. At this rate I'm going with Verizon or At&t.

EVO 3D user here that is due for an upgrade. How is the LTE in orange county so far? I've been battling with drop calls and super slow 3G network on my EVO 3D. My guess is that I need to upgrade to a LTE phone, but before I do so; has the LTE service stablized? I considering switching over to AT&T or Verizon if they're still working on upgrading the towers.
