Haha, I do still have my case yes

Just cover the cost of postage and you can have it if you like? It's hardly been used

Well I'm trying for the final time, picked up the 4G/128GB in my local store and got the £50 cashback into the bargain, they agreed that if I have issues I can return and I'll swap for an S4 at that point.

I'd probably have just grabbed the S4 if they had any in stock, but none, also the keyboard case isn't free like it was a couple of weeks ago so not quite as good value for me.

Fingers crossed then, at least you can swap if you need to.

Argos were really good with me. Okay I ended up spending £509 when I started at £379...but hey ho, it's only money

That's awesome! I was half joking to be honest as I'm just about to order my S5e and that case was also on my shopping list at Amazon.  I've been reading this thread with interest due to the wifi problems etc so your experiences have been very useful.
Thanks for your kind offer.  If you could drop me a PM with the details and I'll send you the payment.

Has anyone received the free 512GB card yet?

Hi guys,

Just had the dispatch notice for my brand new, shinny S5E... will be here mid-week, latest.

Any tips or thing to do first/check etc. out of the box? How are users finding the Samsung bloat? I'm guessing there are no custom firmwares about yet?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Nothing really that isn't obvious except the pin to eject the microSD card slot is on the back of the white box with the paperwork in.
Apart from that just charge it up, go through setup process, do a firmware update (where it will spend a long time after rebooting with just a Samsung logo showing) and load your apps.

I'd have a look in the device care section too. Turn off fast charge if you're not bothered about charge speed and pdotecp the battery. Also worth looking under app optimization.

Really is a cracking bit of kit.

Don't anyone buy the Keyboard Cover - its rubbish.... incredibly fiddly to get it connected properly!

I havent read every comment on the thread but read up on the wifi problem on these before considering.
