[Collector's Edition] Pipboy does NOT fit Samsung Galaxy S5

Post » Thu Dec 03, 2015 12:05 am

Just received my Pipboy Edition today and was so excited to pull out the Pipboy and get started with my phone in the gear.

Unfortunately, though the Pipboy is advertised to fit the Galaxy S5, the phone dimensions look about 1mm too long and 1mm too wide for the item, so there seems to be no way to fit this phone into the device.

Definitely disappointed-- absolutely certain I'll still love the game, but just a PSA.

Also, has anyone found some way to make the device fit? Am I doing something wrong?

Okay, I'll dig into it again. Thanks for the confirmation that it works though, I'll see what I can do.

I guess it's just my particular model-- the device will not fit; the length of the cavity seems okay, but the width of the cavity is just too small... and though I could try to hammer the thing into there, I really don't want it to get stuck beyond being able to be removed.

Guess I'm just [censored] out of luck on this one. Thanks anyway-- glad that your Pipboys worked (mine must have a defect or warp somehow).

I'm following exactly what the manual says-- were there any tricks you guys did to make it work? Otherwise I'm guessing mine will just be an overpriced paperweight.

I can assure you, your phone is the same dimensions as everyone's.

Tr-tr-try again.
