2 Defective Note 9 displays have already been reported - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Today in the GalaxyNote9 subreddit, there has already been 2 defective Note 9 displays been reported. Both users purchased the US Snapdragon models via Samsung. One was a 512gb and the other 128gb. Both show the same green line down the right side of the display.
The phone hasn't even officially launched yet and the fact that we're already seeing 2 defective units on a subreddit with less than 3k users is VERY worrisome. I really hope this is just incredibly bad luck.
I pre-ordered mine through my carrier here in Canada and will DEFINITELY be testing it out in store before I leave.
Here are the two reddit threads:

Hello! I can't see anything wrong from the pictures. Can you tell us exactly what to see in them?

You do realise that millions of Note 9's are already in circulation.
If you are VERY worried I would cancel and stay with what you own.
Lemos will be found, 100% guarantee of that. It's unfortunate but a consequence of mass production.

Thats why there is warranty.

I think if you had a green line down the side of your display, you would definitely notice, without even specifically testing these phones

Feel free to cancel your 512 Blue order to help expedite mine!!

Mine is flawless. How is 2 out of 3000 VERY worrisome? Hyperbole maybe?

Hahaha yeah that would be an amazing percentage, actually! 0.07% defect rate sounds like a WIN to me!
Based on the titles of these threads, you'd think this phone was a complete and utter disaster! "SCREENS ARE FAILING! MY S-PEN IS RATTLING! MY CAMERA LENSES AREN'T PERFECTLY CENTERED!"
Interestingly, I have seen almost no threads started with positive remarks, like "this phone is freaking amazing!" If one has not been started when I get my 512 in September, I will start one!

I was just thinking about you guys when I saw his post!!!?

Thank goodness - I was worried about this and will now cancel my order. 2 broken screens is a sure fire sign of wider issues!

Let start a mass cancelation of 512g order so I can get mine quicker plssss

I just got 2 Verizon models. A 128 and a 512. Both are perfect!

People put up pictures of their display comparison please. Not impressed with the whites on my note 9 compared to my note 8 and iPhone x. Side by side they look dirty yellow with the same exact settings. Returning

Meh two out of all the ones out there i am not worried

You aint lying man. Just thinking that everyone outside of the Blue 512gb will have their phones in hand tomorrow or this weekend really makes my blood boil. We should get some sort of discount because Samsung wasn't properly prepared!

That's the first thing I did also. Whites were not as white compared to my n8. However, I no longer have the resolve or energy to care for it anymore lol. I think my n8 was the same when new. Don't remember.

They had the problem on the S9, had something to do with the digitizer. Was corrected in an OTA Update.

I originally ordered the 10th (128GB). Then I wanted to change my order and they couldn't edit it. So on the 19th, I canceled the order and reordered the 512GB. Sept 5 through Sept 12 is the estimated date.
Ordered through T-Mobile.

Note now out for T-Mobile

Samsung official announced on Facebook today that the note is now available for T-Mobile....interesting and pretty cool. I like it as it should bring more devs and people over here...
Any thoughts??

I know many members are waiting excitedly to get their hands on the modem files from that phone.
I'm pretty curious about any t-mobile tweaks they might have added to the rom.
Why havn't XDA created a T-Mobile Note thread?
Because I think it was announced today and they are not wizards...
Also it will most likely be the same build and I hope that roms will be cross compatible but no positive about that

I'm downloading the Kies software on my desktop, lets hope they will let me update my AT&T Note with the Samsung software update.

That's a good price. The Nexus goes for about the same amount. I am on T-Mobile and always wanted the Note. I heard there were problems getting the ATT version working on the T-Mobile network.
I might just order one now! I hate the pentile display on the Nexus.

I didn't order it but here is a comment from this site -> http://www.tmonews.com/2012/08/deal...-t-mobile-galaxy-note-for-349-99-no-contract/
"Thank you for your recent order from Walmart Wireless.
Unfortunately, we have been unable to contact you to let you know that we are unable to complete the processing of your new Samsung Galaxy Note. We have cancelled this device and any accessories that you ordered with it. We are also releasing any funds authorized on your credit card for this device.
Order Number: XXXXX768
Rate Plan: No Service - Phone Only
Carrier Name: No Carrier
Date Cancelled: 08/08/2012"
I ordered one from Walmart, got the order confirmation email, then almost immediately got the cancellation email. Someone screwed up on posting the price with the advert. I guess as soon as they got a surge in orders they realized the mistake and took it down. Close but no cigar.
My order changed from "pending order validation" to "processing" now and still no cancellation email. FYI I just knocked on wood!:fingers-crossed:
Typical Tmo timing. Always late to the party. They get the Note when all other carriers are getting ready for the Note II. Maybe Tmo will get the Note II a year after AT&T gets it.

Some cheese with that wine?? Maybe sugar with the sour grapes. Magenta got the S2 & S3 the same as the other carriers and had exclusive on the my touch. Besides, the way I read it, the note was considered to much of a niche to be a worthwhile seller, but that was put to rest.
The Note 2 is rumored to be announced in two weeks...maybe, maybe not, then rumor has it the Note 2 will be marketed in Oct, just before the new iphone. This may be true and I hope so, but that doesn't mean there'll be a US version anytime shortly after that.
Impatiently waiting for the first stock Tmo-Note ROM dump
so we can finally pull a proper stable radio for running i717 on Tmo networks

Do not purchase this device!

Let me start off by mentioning that I am an avid smart phone user.
Over the past year I have switched between the iphone 4, the s2 , the s3, the bold 990 and finally the nexus 4.
Out of all the devices I have purchased the one I have regretted the most is the nexus 4 from LG.
It broke after dropping off my desk during the first week.
The screen was shattered, while the glass sticker that comes from the manufacturer was still enact.
After speaking to countless reps in Canada, apparently the phone could only be fixed in the US headquarters in California.
So I sent the phone via fed ex.
Over the next 40 days I called, emailed, live chatted almost every other day to get updates on my phone repair.
On Feb 6th, 40 days after sending in the phone to be repaired, the rep assured me that the screen was fixed and was sent out for delivery .
Today is Feb 18th. I just received the phone.
And guess what, the phone was not repaired.
After calling GOOGLE and LG countless times today, the best they could offer me is to send back the phone and wait another 40 days and hopefully it can be fixed.
I am still on hold with them to speak to a manager so I dont know what will happen.
All I know is every review online on the NEXUS 4 that said you could not argue with a phone with these features at this price are incredibly wrong.
The quality and after sale service is garbage. That's why the price tag is so low.
I have now switched back to my iphone 4 and bold 9900 that I have had for over 13 months, and still without a single scratch.
LG is the biggest rip off of a company ever, and shame on google for dealing with them.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, when I spoke to google about the problem with my nexus 4, she transferred me to ASUS.
and then emailed me the contact number for Samsung, so I can fix my LG phone.
Whats wrong with these companies?
You dropped your phone and claimed warranty from Google? Why would you call LG again when you have been dealing with Google?
Are they replacing it free of charge?
Sounds like you've had more trouble with the companies rather than the "Device"
You just had bad luck.

u deserve it for using an iphone and blackberry ))
You had a bad experience while thousands of others have had a wonderful experience. It happens. Life sucks. Get over yourself.
INB4 Locked.
You dropped your phone and it broke. I'm surprised that they are even fixing it for you. Your title seemed to suggest that your post would contain some complaints about the device itself, other than it obeys the laws of physics and the companies that manufacture and distribute it don't really care about you.

It's no news flash Google customer service sucks. The new Google b&m stores coming will be interesting. I'm expecting an automated touch screen kiosk vending machine and a return slot.

Take better care of your phone next time instead of blaming the device.
Phone dropped from your desk.
Phone glass shattered.
So, by the op's logic, if I drop a coffee mug off my desk and it breaks, it's not my own stupidity, it's actually a faulty cup?

No everyone listen to the OP return your device right now. His one experience is going to be ours.
Take my experience also, I have a nexus 7; it had screen lift I called Google they actually sent me a advance replacement and had the nerve to leave me a shipping sticker inside the box so I could just put it on the box and ship it right back. Wtf
Also take my technician experience, it was our technician policy to annoy a customer in which the way they annoy us with constant calls before the item even gets there and calls when it just gets to us, to just sit on their repair.

Taktik case

There was a Taktik case for our phones. Can anyone send me a link to where I can purchase one from? I went to theideasforgifts website and they are out of them. Thanks in advance.

As you can see on the 'theideasforgifts' website, the picture is of a Taktik case for the iPhone 5. I just bought a few of them on Alibaba (replicas of course), so I'm interested in their quality and accuracy of replication. The metal+plastic+gorilla glass design is intriguing.

I think vantt1 meant that he bought some of the iphone 5 cases on alibaba, not Note 2 cases, but I could be wrong.
If there was a Lunatik case for the Note 2, that would be GREAT! That case is amazing!
vantt1, would you mind posting a review of the replicas when you get them?

I wouldn't consider it a discount, but instead it was because 10 was the lowest I could find. Next was 20 and 100, and there's no way I'd buy 100!
It was quite a good price though I think. It cost about $8 per case and about $4 postage per case, and I ended up paying about $130 for a total of ten cases, which makes each case about $13 including postage.

Buy the 3T or wait for the 5?

Hi everyone, I have been stuck with this question for weeks now to no relief. I currently have the Oneplus 2 and outside of its quirks it has been a great phone. I have been wanting to upgrade to the OP3T but caught wind of the new OP5 launching supposedly in March.
The OP3T is finally available again but thought I would reach out here for your guys opinion first.
March?! I thought it would be June/July.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
I'll see if I can find it again but from what I read, it said I would be released somewhere in Q1 of 2017. Thus my assumption put it around March. I know with these things are always a crap-shoot.
If ur budget will be around 40k till may then go for op5 but still there is a probability tht u will feel bad if they release op5T and u bought op5 .lol just kidding.. new model release will continue so if u wait u will have to wait forever .
You can always buy 3T, and when new one comes, sell the old one and buy the new one
Buy 3T. If 5 is better as Eremitus said you can sell it later
I would say to go for the 3T. Oneplus phones hold their value over time, so you should be able to recover 70% of your money in half a year.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
Yeah, HIGHLY doubt it'll be available in March. They may announce in April or so but I'm sure it will still be a little while for availability. Oneplus has always struggled with having enough supply, so it may be late spring/early summer until you get it. If you're happy with the op2 and don't mind waiting 5-6 months for a new phone, then wait. But if you are ready to/need to update now, you can't go wrong with the 3t. Like other people said, worst case, you could sell it once the 5 is available.
If you're anything like me and get impatient of probably waiting 5 months then go for 3t. When new one is announced and release date is set you could start trying sell 3t and get the 5. Just my opinion. I'll probably take my own advice and get 5 later on.
You have to wait for the S8...
It's a "Must See"..

Already confirmed as a fake.
Thanks everyone for all the help. I just ordered my 3T this morning. One last question, does anyone know why these are $100+ more on Amazon than on the official site?

Seller commissions, fees, taxes
Fair enough. Thanks again everyone
Been using the OP3T for a week now and it so, so close to being the best phone of 2016 apart from 2 big issues (for me). No QHD display and a poor camera. If the OP5 has these it'll be a real flagship killer.
I'm still waiting for mine to come in, but I heard news/rumors that they were thinking of making the 5 a 5.3" screen instead of 5.5", which in my opinions would be better. I think 5.3"; in terms of holding a phone comfortably in your hand is the perfect size.
Dang I have this dilemma too, should I wait for the 5 or get the 3T now. I want the 3T badly, and don't want to wait for the 5, but the 5 looks like it will be a real flagship killer. I've heard rumors of it having a QHD display, with 8GB RAM and the Snapdragon 835. What should I do?

Also just a question is OnePlus having inventory issues, as the 128GB has not been in stock for a while. If I was to get the 3T, I would buy the 128GB, but it's currently not available for purchase, any word on when it will be in stock?
I've been eying the mi mix. Screen to body ratio is crazy. If it get some ROMs I might just get on board

It looks like this site has them in stock and ready to ship. I don't understand why it takes soooo long for these phones to get shipped out if they are in stock. Any way the site shows they have the 128Gb version available too, however the price for that is more than on the manufacturers page.

Oneplus 5 JCC Limited Edition, What do you think?

Oneplus just unveilled this Oneplus JCC Limited edition in Paris, what do you think?
I think it's kinda useless, and I'm disappointed by the poor english of the text written on the back.
Here is a link: https://oneplus.net/fr/jcc

Merde. This is what became of factory seconds and returned units?
Explains where all the black stock went lol
Just took them and doodled on the back.
First the new Bootanimation and now this? whoever is making decisions over at OP really needs a stern talking too

Ha! just read your reply on Reddit/oneplus (I think)
But you're right, this is a horrible decission, my phone is broken and I've been waiting for the OP5 midnight black to come back in stock for 2 weeks, only because of this useless partnership. I hope they sell very poorly.

You did indeed xD
It's a nice idea. I like it very much.
This is crap! Another excuse by OnePlus to do virtually nothing and charge you more money. It's no wonder you can find this phone on sale ($416.00 at Gearbest with OP5SAVER code). From the 3->3T->5, improvements have been minimal turning Never Settle into Always Settle.
I ordered a grey OP5 just before the hype of the announcement (still waiting for it to be delivered), but I quite like the new coloured button design. I'n not too sure about the back, but then I always use a case anyway.
OnePlus (More likely Carl Pei) really are becoming far too pretentious, you're a small company not a niche company. Stick to what's important and stop getting sidetracked with pointless attention seeking ventures.
I was expecting something a little better than this ... OP5T perhaps?

Same, or at least a new color, like red or something, this is just a fail

You weren't relading the pre-release announcements very closely then. A OnePlus 5T wouldn't be limited edition, would it? The speculation from tech writers was not only 100% that it would be something like this but the specific company OnePlus was in partnership with was known weeks ago.

5T? For what?
OP5 is about 3 months old and already has 2 months old security patch on OOS. They would support 2 flagships even more slowly. I can see a lot of potential in this phone, so I hope Oneplus is smart enough to focus on this one atm.
tell that designer stop smoking cheap weed
I was expecting a complete new color, not the midnight black OP5s sent to warranty and refurbished with colored buttons
Seriously? Oneplus wants to walk on a fashion catwalk or chasing make their phones as a fashion accessory? In this has become OnePlus?
the button colors look cool tbh tho

Like I said in my earlier post, this is just another excuse to charge more money. The price for this is €559.00, which is about $665.00. Their black 128GB version is $539. You would pay over $125 more for colored buttons?

I suggest then you ask yourself, "Why are they willing to charge Europeans so much more?" Go to the bottom of the page and select USD for currency and you will see the price difference. If the US version supports your bands used in Europe, I would convert some € to $ and buy the US version. That is if you still want to do business with them.
