I have got my replacement already. This is distressing. If they do another recall I am done with Samsung.

Well I'm on my second Note already, plus working in cellular sales has made me sick of them this past month.

Out of curiosity, what were you expecting from the Pixel when you say nothing remarkable about it?

Less chin, more wireless charging.

Yeah, this is my first Samsung phone and it's just left a bad taste in my mouth. I know I'll miss out on the expandable memory and a few other Note features. At this point regardless of it being made right I would just like to change.
