Yaaaaayy, I've wanted this phone for like 2 months, I had a chance to buy a SGS2 but I took the Arc over the Galaxy S2, some may call me crazy (Maybe not you guys) because it's not as technologically advanced but that doesn't matter to me, the Arc S is DAMN SEXY! I ordered it in Pure White about 2 hours ago.
I'm on AT&T so I ordered the LT18a version because I'll receive the correct bands. So yeah, excited. Join me in my festivities!
Thanks =D
Can't wait to be apart of the Arc community.

Glad to see more arc users.
Good choice, I do like the white as well ( had X10 in white ) but arc in silver cause they didn't have it in white.
Arc is well-designed and you will enjoy every second of that sexiness.

When you get your hands on it, you'll fall in love with its looks and you won't even want to consider an Otterbox case!! Trust me, I'm anal when it comes to maintaining my phone in mint condition, but with the Arc all I can stand on it is a clear silicone case. It just looks so damn perfect!!!!

What case do you recommend to keep it viewable to envious people?
Edit: Does it actually come with a preinstalled screen protector?

Yes it comes with a very strong and perfectly applied screen protector.
It's very thick though and a fingerprint magnet. I removed it and applied a generic clear one.
Thhe best case for the white Arc S is the Barely There, it really is barely there!
When you want a case, I give anpther vote vor case-mate's barely there.
I hate cases on phones, so I removed it after 2 days, but ti's really thin. On my iPad 2 I have a case-mate barely there that is applied and it's great.
Case-Mate is a definite go
Screen protector:
Removed it on my Arc almost 2 months ago - no scretches
And I keep my "naked" Arc everyday when I go to school etc in the pocket of my jeans
Boo to cases. Just get a decent screen protector.
Boo to cases and screen protectors

Oh, me too! Although the black one. I'm pretty much fed up with my ZTE Blade(Chinese piece of garbage).
I got my Arc with 313 euros(I think it's like 330$ or something like that). Gonna root it at the first place(I need my TBackups from my old phone )
Dammit, can't wait!

Haha, congrats to both of us.
I like to keep my phones in pristine condition so I'm not comfortable without a case and SP to be honest.

Ouch! That's bad!
I guess mine won't be delivered until maybe two weeks or so. They'll start handling the order Monday, and it sure takes some time to deliver it from Brazil to Switzerland
Also, my ZTE Blade went completely dead. No life in it anymore. And I lost my usb cable, cannot try unbricking. Using Nokia 3310 now
You ordered phone from Brazil to Switzerland?! Any particular reason?
I am just corious
Mine will be waiting for me at work Monday !
Then to get some miui running

Friends,
I thought I should share this review video I came across. I have gone through so many galaxy note reviews, but this has been straight up the best. Really feel connected, and I think a lot of the galaxy note current users who love the phone would connect with the review a lot.. and those who are still thinking of buying a Note, definitely check it out.
Excellent review but you should have posted it in the review thread, I can smell the Ganja...
Interesting. I've come to the stage with the SGS2 where I need to gift it to my partner & get a new phone, it being a bit small now it seems to me. I've wondered about the SGS3 but that may not be a lot bigger, 4.65 rumor? So bottom line, the Note is really OK for everyday use?

the Note is supreme, the one to rule them all...The only thing I can see missing is IR port, so it could be used as a TV remote, then it would have been the complete phone..the ultimate..
Ericsson P800 had everything, it was supreme...crappy screen and touch function, but not far from the best.

That's amazing! I congratulate you on your great luck!
Same opinion, this Note is great.
So great that my Archos Tablet is lying on my table and I nearly don't use it anymore
A great review, and he's very entertaining! I agree with him about the size and power of the note making it more than a phone. Any future upgrade will have to be to something very similar to my note.

Great video. I think alot of people thought the same way when they first take a look at it.
Its funny how normal the note is once you get use to it. You only really notice how big it is when you use another device.
Great review couldn't have said it better myself!

Yeah i'm subbed to that guy....great vids! And yes....the Note is the BEST!
It is an awesome phone. I've had mine for about a month mine. Switched from an iPhone 4S. Took me a while to get accustomed but after trying multiple roms and kernels, I now don't think I'd go back to the 4S.
mine arrived yesterday, and its a great device, other than I am still wiping drool from it..

Upgraded from SGS2 last week (loved the S2) for the screen... VERY happy!
Why must all you note users taunt me D:! My paycheck isn't until this Friday!
Found it on dailysteals ebay page. the white one is already sold out, but the grey one is still available!
just go to ebay daily deal on its home page and you'll see it there!
AWESOME price!

looks like white available again for people that want one.
The prices are down everywhere, you can get it new from multiple third parties at Amazon as well.
They need to make a limited edition all black Galaxy Nexus....would be sexy as hell.
This is one of the few where the white one doesn't look that good. Most likely because the front screen isn't white also......an all black would look sexy as hell

Dubious? How did you reach that conclusion?
They have almost 240k feedbacks (98.7% positive). If that's your definition of dubious, I guess you won't be buying much online.

I'll probably be signing the petition and wait for replica Element cases. The price is.. a tad too high.
That will probably change , Now that their making n4 for Verizon & Sprint.

While that may be true... 200 or 220 dollars for a bumper a case....... I mean really? That's around 2/3 of what the phone costs.

No I got them for around $50. I'm not sure if it's a marketing strategy or not, but they're on sale now with the same price range for iphone 4/4s :silly:
Just ordered from Tiger Direct, will be here tomorrow.
I don't like screen protectors on tablets, but I feel a good, thin case is a must.
Do we know if the last Note 10.1 cases will fit the 2014 version? Or does anyone have good suggestions on ones specifically for the 2014 version?
Thanks!

She has clear protection plastic for the screen and yes it is permanent on that. It is a yellowish stain. Don't know if it will permanently stain the glass of the tablet if you don't have the protector but I don't trust it. Don't think it is a problem on a black tablet.

Well I needed something because the case I want won't be in stock until 10/30 and who knows there will probably be delays! So I just purchased this off of ebay for $15 with free shipping and it will be here Wednesday. Yes, it is just a sleeve but it will act as a stand in landscape which looks really sweet. So I may end up using this on and off even after I get my REAL case next month. Oh, yes $15 is a lot for a temporary case but not really when we're trying to protect our $600 Notes!

Wow, I almost got this one myself. I'm glad I decided to just hold off and use a screen protector for a while. I may break and wind up getting a poetic case. They're just 10 bucks, but I really wanted something that could hold my tablet in portrait mode.
Will the cases for the 2013 model fit this one ok?
