  1. I've got the 64gb Note5 and this amount of space is pretty good. I wouldn't be safe with 32 but 64 appears to be the sweet spot for me at the moment. If there would have been a 128gb Note5 option, I would have probably taken it though.

    Yeah, I didn't use over 32GB when I had the GS5 plus the micro SD card, so I figured I was safe with this.

  2. How are you liking it so far?

    I like it so far.  The camera starts up quicker.  The screen looks great.  I like the fingerprint reader (though I hardly use it).

     

    I don't like the embedded battery and the lack of SD card slot.  And it's fast, but still has the few lags in certain apps like the S5 did.  So far, the battery life doesn't seem that different from the S5 to me.

     

    But one of the main reasons I switched was b/c of the addition of the newer LTE bands for roaming.  I will be going to eastern NC soon and no Sprint coverage there.

  3. There is a NV site accepted there. 3G/800. In Ridgecrest. Unless it was removed for some reason. But my father in law goes to Ridgecrest every year and has Sprint. I know he was using it there last year. He asked me to help him with his hotspot. It was 3G only then.

    Interesting.  I wonder why they don't include that in their coverage map?

  4. USCC using B5 for LTE?  Im near USCC territory and go into their territory a few times a year.  At least I'll have 3G now which is veryable usable which will be good, but still just wondering.

     

    East TN between Cleveland and Knoxville and then West North Carolina west of Ashville.  Anyone know if these areas are using B5 and/or B12 LTE?

     

    If it is B12, just another reason to upgrade phones sooner. :-D

    I would like to know for eastern NC?  :-)

  5. I have the update.  I like the new signal meter, except when it looks like I have about 3 "bars" of LTE, then it drops to 3G.  Before, in that area, I would have 1 bar of LTE and it would drop to 3G.

     

    Now it LOOKS worse, b/c it LOOKS like I have about 3 bars of LTE then it drops to 3G.

  6. Now it's time for Sprint to update THEIR coverage map to show LTE roaming.  I'm going to be in US Cellular area in December, so I hope they give us access to this soon.

    Though, I looked and USC only has cellular licenses that my phone would be able to connect to.  So it probably won't matter.
