Maybe a state to state thing? In Cali, they charge you the tax on the non-subsidized price.

Recently picked up a G3 from Best Buy, they price matched Amazon at $50, I had the $50 credit for signing up with Best Buy earlier in the year. I just paid about $70 in taxes (when with 2 year re-up). Plus I get the extra battery and charger for free. This is has got to be the best bang for the buck right now. The G3 is a beast.

Here, of course... http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/6257-samsung-galaxy-note-4/ Note 4 does not have Cat6 modem, no B41. Honestly, that is not a deal killer for me. I like the G3 for its form factor and it seems to at least match the Note 4 blow for blow. The fact that LG's skin seems lighter than TouchWiz is the icing on the cake. I just want to know if there is any obvious advantage the N4 has over the G3, cause I can't find any. (again, with the exception of the S-pen)
-
So, in a nutshell, what is this phone's weakness? I've been waiting for the Note 4 but just like the Note 3 was not Spark ready, it seems that Note 4 is missing B41. Any input on why the Note 4 is better than the G3. (the S-pen aside)

I'm reading the offer to mean that no matter what, the rebate check will not be more than $190. That means that if you get $5, you will "only" get $190. I don't think they care if you got $1 or $10 from your trade, they will only give you $190 regardless. I dunno, I could be wrong.

Can't vouch for "typically" but they handled my Note 2 purchase flawlessly. I'm hoping for more of the same Saturday when I pick up the wife's iPhone 6.

For the Note 3, on launch day, Best Buy matched the $300 price listed on Amazon.

What dissuaded you from the N4?

I've been checking Best Buy Trade In website and found a couple of phone I can purchase for about $40 to trade in. $160 net gain. I was not sure about the Note 4 but this is sure sweetening the pot. update: the link... https://tradein.bestbuy.com/client/#/catalog/

First thought...so what. But the more I think about it, the slight curve may make it a bit easier to sit with a phone this size in your pocket...or I could just lose some weight.

I have noticed that it is quicker to drop a weak WiFi signal than my note 2. Couple of times, when in my house, the phone has switched to 4G. This never happened on my Note 2. I do seem to be pulling in 4G better than the N2, however. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk now Free

Wirefly had it for the same price and this morning was not showing sold out/backordered although that may have changed.

Just picked mine up. Best Buy price matched Amazon (3 bills).

Eric, thank you for your prompt and thoughtful response. I guess I need to weigh the importance of deeper LTE coverage v. Note 3's improvements over the Note 2. On the bright side, I have five phones on my account and the other users could not care less about new phones so an update is never too far away.
-
Can anyone chime in whether a single-band LTE is the death knell for me since I'm in the L.A. area (specifically Glendale)? I REALLY like the Note 3 but not if I'm going to get worse performance than my Note 2 in the immediate future. Or is this just a matter of not being able to take advantage of the NV improvements that will be coming soon?

I'm so new to this. Did you guys see this yet? https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/GetApplicationAttachment.html?id=2064886 I got this link from the article below... http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/09/12/samsung-galaxy-note-3-release-date-us/ EDIT: Looks like I relied on a bad source. Thank you Eric for clearing this up. See post immediately below.
-
I can tell you that based on what I see on Sensorly and compared to what my phone does when it's in LTE range, the handoffs are very smooth.

got my update this morning. My only complaint is why can't I have multi-view on my Galaxy Tab 10.1? I'm liking the Note 2 more every day. Everyone who holds the phone laughs saying this thing is too big but then get serious and say it's nice to have such a large screen.
