Neonode N2 on sale - Off-topic

Hello,
Neonode N2 is on sale now (www.neonode.com) for 439€. For a while I REALLY wanted to buy this phone. But IMO it was released too late, and the grid-like touch screen severely constraints the user interface.

Left out

who else is a quantum owner? i feel left out on cases and other accessories.
I'm one here, but I agree accessory support seems to be rather lacking. The touch pro 2 I came from had plenty, but this isn't quite the case...

I bought my wife one and preordered a case and screen saver. Ebay!
I totally agree sometimes i do feel other Windows Phones have an advantage over us but we are the only ones with a full keyboard

Bestskinsever.com now selling Focus skins

Hey Hey,
Just wanted to give folks a heads up, Bestskinsever.com is now selling full phone skins for the Samsung Focus.
I just ordered one, and it was only $US 6.99 plus $2.00 shipping. You can't beat the price. I ordered from them for my last phone (Samsung Impression) and I was very happy with the product.
Just thought folks would like an alternative to the $30 price point for the InvisiShields of the world for what I feel is a good option. Check it out if you like.
ps - For the record I am in no way affiliated with this company!! Feel silly saying so, but there are many spam wary people out there

I bought a skin for mine from Gadget Guard (like an Invisishield) via ebay, but paid about $13. This seems like a pretty good deal.
Does it have the same tackyness that these types of skins have? Mine does and it definitely affects the feel of the touch screen. It's something I'll probably have to get used to but i'm considering just using the side and back skins - I'm glad these people offer a body-only option.

5 more official Nexus 7 cases priced and on pre-order

Four official Nexus 7 cases and a screen protector. There are prices but no release date as of yet.

Rotating Stand Case
Non-rotating Stand Case
Folio Case
Bluetooth Keyboard Case
Screen Protector
The bluetooth keyboard case looks interesting. I'm wondering how much would it cost..
Edit: "ONLY £79.95"
Mobilefun seems like such a rip off, I don't how they can justify the £39.99 price tag of their folio case...that's $62 for you US folks!!
I imagine over time, the price will come crashing down due to a lack of demand. The prices they have are an absolute joke for what is actually a very average case.
There's always a mark up from the US to the UK, the 8GB Nexus 7 (£160) is the equivalent of $250. It does seem larger for the accessories though, think they're trying to increase their margin.

Good point but even still, from a UK perspective, £39.99 for a folio case (unbranded) is a joke! I don't even think Marware/Case-Mate, Incipio, etc will charge that much!
LOL I love the 'official' - part of the description...
the rotating one and folio - look like the endless ones on ebay.. 'leather' covering the screen..
I would advise people to check ebay before paying that amount for a generic case - no way they are official Asus products..

lol only... half the price of the tablet.
The keyboard case is also the same generic one that's been making the rounds for quite a while. Stamp "genuine" on it (not even "official") and some folks seem to go ape over it.
all of these accessories look the same to what's out already. they will probably cost 2-3x more
I bet these will have the smart cover feature maybe

The cheap $2 cases in eBay have this feature, it's nothing special anymore and even it were, it does not justify these ludicrous prices.
Proof that MobileFun is inflating their claims that these are official, as well as their prices (or perhaps their supplier is fibbing to them?):

EDIT: My posts about this on the various "news" sites are being deleted, so folks aren't being informed. Hopefully the sites will post an update. I hate to see a retailer get all of this free advertising and make their customers pay inflated prices due to false claims.
I can't imagine using a such a small keyboard.....
The keyboard case definitely looks like an improvement from what's available - thinner, smaller, more solidly built. I can't imagine those are the actual prices they will be sold for in the US - no one will buy a $125 keyboard case for a $250 tablet.

Need a genuine Note 5 S-Pen Replacement

Yesterday I stupidly stabbed an apple with my S-Pen. It no longer works. I looked online and found some $10/$15 ones. I don't trust these as I have bought them before and the Sasmung logo shiny part just breaks and the tip is not sensitive, yada-yada-yada(cheap-made). Long story short, I NEED AN S-PEN REPLACEMENT. ):
I bought a spare on the Bay (new in factory packaging w/spare tips) for about $20/free shipping (this is in the US, I did not look at any international sellers)

General Just received the Oneplus Pad today

Hands-On Review of the Oneplus Pad -
Firstly, the look and feel of the Oneplus Pad is really premium. Love the design aspect of the pad!
I expected it to be on the heavier side, but it is surprisingly pretty light.
The display size is big but not too big. Feels comfortable to hold.
The Charger Brick that comes with the Oneplus Pad is different from the ones that come with the Oneplus Phones. Looks and feels more premium than usual.
There is Camera Bulge present for the Main (back) Camera but not too big.
The Halo Green color has a Brushed Metallic Glossy finish so it seems to be vulnerable to scratches.
The pad also feels slippery since the Brushed Metallic finish does not provide grip.
The UI feels clean to use, and the Camera quality is pretty decent. Haven't gotten the time to explore much of the device so I will be editing this thread later on (after spending enough time with the pad) to give my views on how well it works.
First Impressions: Would have liked to have other Color Options. But otherwise, So far soo good!
Did you order from the preorder? Just curious, since mine hasn't shipped lol

Yes this must have been a pre-order since I haven't received my Oneplus pad too and mine wasn't a pre-order.

I preordered the day after preorders were available, when they were doing the deee keyboard lol. I leave for a week vacation on Thursday and wanted to mess with it . It's estimated delivery date is halfway through my vacation. Thankfully my ol lady will be home during the time lol
Does it have gps? Could you check with the free app GPSTEST please?

Received mine yesterday too. OP used UPS to USPS to customer.
Sukked for any real time tracking or altering delivery options, but it arrived exactly according to ETA.
So far exceeds expectations, but to be honest fully expect next upgrade to have UFS 4, LPPDR 5, faster charging, double the ram, quadruple the storage, eSim.
SD, audio jack and IR would be nice extras.
Has full calling and sms capabilities.
Battery life seems outstanding, but let's see later w\ full complement of installs and heavy duty work.
I'll carry a triple Fold version of this to fit in pocket- but without downsizing, maybe just the bezels- instead of cellphone & instead of the present too small Flips \ Folds \ Surfaces.
I work on the phone a lot on the road. I was going to both upgrade 10T to 11 + older tablet to this- but given how good this Tab is (esp. for multitasking), will skip 11 and wait for Fold.
I'm tired of single screens, small type, work on only one thing at a time- foresee the end of single screen electronics.
Phones I would rather they just be cut in half and turned into landscape-oriented super smartwatches.
Highly recommend this Tab. Esp. priced significantly less than a flagship phone.
And it is so thin and light that to those that lug around a laptop everywhere, I recommend they add this. Total weight won't be much more and you can Tether laptop to Tab instead of phone, which will then run much cooler & last longer until charge necessary.

Thumbs up re #1, 2 & 8.
I like the color. What would you prefer? Blue maybe?
I couldn't help myself. My scratched (from the keyboard case) and dying battery Tab S6 is fading. OnePlus is offering $260 for my 9 Pro (I will miss wireless charging) towards an 11, and purchasing a Pad at a BIG discount. Almost $600 in savings.
I felt I had to. They made me. I really just want the ipad like screen ratio. These skinny wide things don't work for me.
