Is a phablet obnoxious for a guy to carry?

Q. I'm up for a new phone and I'm wanting the new Galaxy Note 3 but am a bit concerned about it's size and how it will affect my daily life. The phone itself is awesome and, being a graphic designer, I know I will use it to it's full potential but being a guy and not having a purse or large bag to carry it around in concerns me. On the other hand I already carry my phone in my back pocket so transporting it on my person shouldn't be much of a transition.

Some friends have pointed out flip wallet case covers that combine my wallet into a cover for the phone. I like most of the cases I find and think it would be efficient combining my wallet and phone together. I'm just trying to get an idea on the practicality of having such a large phone.

Any guys out there that already have the Note 3 (or any phablet) care to weigh in and give me some advice on what to expect?

I'm not super active with my phone, I have a desk job and don't travel a lot.

Case cover in consideration: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Flip-Wallet-Leather-Stand-Set-Case-Cover-For-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-III-3-N9000-/121181274044?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var&hash=item1c36f77fbc

Thanks!

A. My husband had a Galaxy Note (1st ed) for a long time. It wasn't heavy. The weight was actually disturbingly light with no case. He loved it, and everyone was always impressed by it. It didn't seem awkward at all, though I should mention that he's 6'2. It might seem awkward in small hands like mine. I couldn't type on it with one hand like I could on something smaller. That aside, if you are a graphic designer, you shouldn't give a crap if it looks a bit awkward. For you, it is a tool, and not just some fashion statement.

He had a similar leather case, and eventually abandoned it because he has some invincibility complex that causes him to forget he's waving really expensive electronics around all day (UGH!)

Side note: He only stopped using it because (after surviving many falls, bangs, and other accidents with no damage- not even a scratch- WITHOUT A CASE ON) it flew out of his car window as he was turning left and was run over by oncoming traffic for about ten minutes. The phone still worked fine, but the LCD panel was cracked a bit so he went back to using his old phone for now. I have no idea if the new Note is that durable, but his made iPhones look like they were made of sugar.

Original Question

Samsung galaxy S III 4G Android phone how to install battery?
Q. I just received the phone. Im reading the manual page after page about the battery with magnifying glass. Is this a spare battery or is this the one that goes in the phone now? I never work on these phones because I have had my work phone for years and someone else takes care of this.

How does the battery get in the phone? Ok I see no seam to get in. I dont want to break this phone and I have my magnifying glass out reading the manual. My other old piece of crap phone is easy.
I did go on Samsung website about this question and I dont have the answer.
Ok I want to charge the phone NOW and I am so EXCITED about the new phone I'm being impatient!!! LOL
If this were my work phone I would be prying the hell out of it and figure this out myself. But this is my new baby...
Thanks Steven...I am just afraid of breaking it....I am looking. Ok It is not giving way it wont budge...Thats why i thought i was in the wrong place.... I will call samsung.
Samsung feels my phone is defective. So I wasn't crazy after all. Lol
My electrician was here today doing work and I asked him to help me- he handed the phone back to me and said he's not sure why the back wont open. so this is resolved. Thanks and I will send for another phone.

A. There should be at the top or bottom a place for you finger nail so you can life the back cover. The battery has arrows to show where to insert it.

Original Question

My Data plan doesn't work on Samsung Galaxy S3?
Q. Well I switched my phone to a samsung galaxy s3 prepaid go phone at&t, and i have the $50 plan, but my data usage doesn't work? It worked on my old phone but when i switched phones by changing sim cards, it wouldnt work i'd have to use public wifi, somone help?

A. "My Data plan doesn't work on Samsung Galaxy S3?"

My guess and it would be wrong is that you are NOT paying the minimum wage

My answer is that the SGS III is NOT an AT&T handset (covering bases) OR that there has been a factory reset

"Same / similar" the INTERNET SETTINGS on the SGS III are set to the Original network (if an unlocked phone) or missing due to a factory reset

Call up the Network and request they send you the INTERNET SETTINGS, this will be sent as a text message which you then save ( it does say "save" etc)

Either or situation,
If there are INTERNET SETTINGS for the previous network ALREADY already on the phone you change it to AT&T####

Or if due to a factory reset there are NO INTERNET SETTINGS the AT&T INTERNET SETTINGS become the default and the internet will work straight away as it NOW the default with the CORRECT sim card

***Sim card & INTERNET SETTINGS {IS} in an unlocked phone must match AT&T simcard AT&T {IS}


typical route to change
### settings/ more settings/ Mobile networks/ Access Point Name [APN] and it will be pointing to XYZ
Ater AT&T send their {IS} will you be able to change, HOWEVER when you save it when the text arrives it may? ask you at that time to make this the default, if it does and you did , I typed this for nothing. If option not given you change it to AT&T
