+1 Exactly same thing happened to my friend's note 2. Got instantly scratched, and like you said very sticky LOL.

Get realook screen protector, its one of the best imo. Ppl can't even tell I got a screen protector on

No best buy in the lower mainland has received any Telus phones for over a week now.

Starting to get slightly annoyed.

Do many of you guys vouch for screen protectors? I generally never used them. The plastic doesn't clean well if at all with microfiber cloths n such.

I find its just better if you had a leather pouch holder like the original Galaxy Note.

the jelly type (Zagg, Best Skins ever, Invishield, Skinomi) screen protectors should never be used with a stylus. only use the hard clear ones. ebay is a good place to buy.

usually i buy protector from bestskinever for my iphone and ipad... not sure if how it will work on note 2..

does the canadian version have multiview?

Not at the moment. Actually, all of the American ones except Sprint doesn't have multi-view yet

ive seen the case thats attached to the battery cover. does that come stock ?

Futureshop's been receiving them, but only grey, no white shipments supposedly.

Best buy mobile had the grey ones as well.

Metrotown telus, the one by superstore, has both colours in, checked today


BTW regarding screen protectors,

I got the oleophobic screen protector from spigen.. Would that be okay with the stylus and all?
It's pretty nice on the iphone 5..

Nope

North Vancouver Futureshop has grey all carriers.
White is expected tomorrow PM me and I can get them to reserve one for you

Has anyone been able to get more than this so far?

LTE Only battery run down test:

Before plugging into the charger at 23%:

• Screen was on for 3h 23m
• Auto-Brightness is enabled for the entire time
• Light gaming. Plants vs Zombies with Stylus, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Mass Effect Infiltrator, 20mins roughly
• 1+ hours of video.
• The rest is webbrowsing, sync enabled, push exchange email's and What'sApp firing off non stop every 10 mins.

Anyone here have better results with similar usage?

^ that's impressive already

thats actually really good battery life with LTE on.

edit

just got my unlock code, it was 24.99

plugged in the note 2 and it says unlocking successful, but gotta find someone thats not fido or rogers to test.

btw, before unlocking, i put my gf's fido sim in the rogers note 2 and it fully works.

hmmm...so we can buy a note 2 with no contract from Rogers and would work with a Fido sim with no unlocking needed?

from my experience yes. But I don't wanna say 100% exactly but it worked for mine.

Yes. That goes for Galaxy S3 as well

Surprised why you guys think that between Fido and Rogers they are different companies. It will work as they connect to the same towers.

In fact, if you use a sim card from the following providers:

• Chatr
• 7-Eleven Speak Out Wireless
• Petro-Canada Mobility
• Fido
• Brightroam
• Cityfone
• DCI Wireless
• good2go Mobile Canada
• KORE Wireless
• Primus Canada
• SearsConnect Wireless
• SimplyConnect
• Talk & Earn
• Talk & Save

they will work flawlessly. To ensure your phone is unlocked, make sure you try a microSIM card from a different carrier such as Bell, Telus or T-Mobile.

If I forgot the odd company, please chime in.
