I would hope that it would be the Exynos model. The only way to find out is looking at the specs on the back of the box when they are avaliable.

I guess only the demo units were exynos. Oh well.

yeah but a screen protector will help you out there. even the cheapie plastic ones will still add protection.

Phone comes equipped with a glass screen protector. I've checked, it's not a peel off sticker, it's a true glass screen protector.

Phone in question for reference: Galaxy Note 7 from Rogers.

For the trade in do you need anything else like charger/accessories?

I can't stand them. It's like putting plastic over your sofa so it stays new for the next person who owns it. My Nexus 5 has been great without a screen protector but it sounds like GG5 is more shatter resistant because it's softer and more flexible, making it easier to scratch than past versions.

Might consider this, but fuck I hate the damn bloatware so much.

In this day and age, when our phones are rocking 6gb of ram, 64+ gb of storage and octacores, does bloatware do anything to the performance of the phone? The last 3 branded phones I had (including samsung), I didn't consider any of the software on there bloatware.

Have you tried glass? You can hardly tell the difference between a glass screen protector and your actual screen.

I don't think they have ones that can wrap around a curved edged screen though

You're right they don't, unless you get a full overlay but those are usually plastic. Even the iPhone 6 had a rounded edge to it and the protectors wouldn't go edge to edge but as I said, it was BARELY noticeable. Try it out. Hit up night market if you want it super cheap and see what it looks like. $10/installed.

Phone only. People said the Metrotown location doesn't even care if it powers on. Someone said he brought in a flip phone from back in his high school days. It's probably 15+ years old and they still took it

MikeyStyle 08-23-2016 07:29 PM
traded in a blackberry pearl with a dead battery and got $200 back

!MiKrofT 08-26-2016 12:54 AM
Loving mine so far. Battery life not as good as my S7 Edge but we'll see how it goes after a week of usage.

mk1freak 08-26-2016 09:56 PM

Best Buy guy told me this too. But he said it was only on contract. Samsung site says it does work on outright purchases.

$1050 minus $200 plus tax, minus what you can sell a Note 5 for on CL. Hmm, very tempting...

RiceFarmer 08-27-2016 11:43 AM
Anyone able to find a good glass tempered screen protector? I ordered one on Amazon and it arrived shattered and now sold out.. everything else on Amazon has bad reviews.
