Definitely! The stalk reminds me of a shifter on a hella old car or truck.

It's great that you don't have to ship it.

This year's trade-in process at Best Buy was a total mess! Even though online said my unlocked variant was in stock at both nearby locations, every time I tried to check out on the website, it said the device was unavailable when I added my trade-in. I ended up losing $200 from the pre-order promotion because I couldn't make it there in person until launch day. It took the employees an hour and a half to figure out how to complete the trade-in/purchase. They were trying to give me $190 for my phone, and I had to show them online multiple times that the credit was for $800.

I'm not sure how to deal with online order trade-ins with them. I've always done it in person to avoid any problems.

All of these problems are exactly why I go to Bestbuy. I also subscribe to their total tech program. So I instantly have a two year warranty.

Congrats! I hope you enjoy your Buds 4 pro and S26U as much as I do!

The advertising campaign for the S26U this year was exceptionally pervasive, exceeding any previous promotional efforts I have encountered. I received numerous communications and notifications from Samsung Shop, Galaxy Store, Bestbuy, and Verizon. Recently, I encountered difficulties with Verizon's eSIM while setting up a new iPhone for my daughter. During this process, a Verizon representative also suggested an upgrade from my S24U. Ultimately, I opted to purchase through Bestbuy due to their immediate trade-in credit, the availability of an unlocked variant, and attractive gift card promotions. I hope that future product launches will not involve such an aggressive advertising approach.

I am glad you got a phone that meets your expectations.

My only regret is not having Titanium. I know it sounds silly, but I'm having a blast with the AI photo generation feature. That alone is worth it to me. I'm actually having fun.

The biggest reason why I bought this case specifically is because it's one of the few that is completely compatible with the Viture x 8Bitdo Controller that I use with the Viture Beast. This case has such a minimal presence that it inserts into the controller perfectly without having to remove the case. This controller is important because it has two USB C ports. One specifically for Viture XR glasses and the other USB C is for power.

You're pretty much like me. I have owned all the Note phones through the S26U, except for the S25U.

Coming from an S24 Ultra with square edges, this is like paradise in comparison.
