Yep. In that case you should have literally been allowed to hand the phone to the courier and they could of handled the packaging end of it. It's a remote pick up created by the cosignee (Samsung) so all transportation and insurance implications are on them :thumbsup:

Fuck Samsung...I went out and got a new HTC M9 yesterday, loving it so far. Slight learning curve compared to the Galaxy phones I had, but I'm getting used to it.

Personally i think samsung went backwards with the S6, no external storage, cant replace the battery, not water resistant/waterproof. Im due an upgrade next month, not sure what im gonna go with tbh :-k Might just keep my S4 and get a cheaper contract.....

htc is looking good for me again , beats sound , fm radio , sd slot

I thionk they are all going to those 'sealed' phones now :wha:

The M9 can't be opened to get access to the battery from what I can tell, but they do have a micro SD card slot, which is awesome. And for US customers, HTC has "Uh Oh" protection, if you break your phone in any way during the first year, they will replace it for free. And if you don't use that service within the first year, they give you $100 towards your next purchase of an HTC phone.

yeah, I was really disappointed, too. Those were the features that had me go for a Samsung over the fruity competition back then. Their excuse for doing away with the MicroSD-Card slot is that it would conflict with the extremely fast memory chips they use in the new models. Yeah, right.

Same goes for the battery, allegedly the slim case makes it impossible to accomodate a removable battery. Why did it pose no problem in the S4 or S 5 which are less than a millimetre thicker?

If you have no warranty issues with an OS root, the S 4 should be good enough for quite some time yet.

Meanwhile.. apple users.. still happy. :wha:
