I wish there was some kind of release date for Europe, other than the UK. I'm from UK but living in Austria at the moment, really wanna head over to Germany to pick up one of these when it comes out (Germany and UK seem to get stuff like this before other countries) but don't know if I wanna wait til April or May if the Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes out first! Ahhh what to do..

Same probleme here...I'm from Slovenia and we usualy get ALL phones/tablet very late (with the exception of Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab which were here quite fast, so I hope it will become a habit with Samsung gadgets)...for instance, iPad officialy went on sale last month (not that I care but anyway)!
I just want to get my hands on one of these Honeycomb tablets with EU 3G connectivity!!!

omfg .eu? How did you get a house on the internet?

Just order it?
Edit: Carphone Warehouse, Currys and PC World all don't seem to ship abroad...

And pay extra 200$ for something that doesn't even work in Europe?

Thanks to iPhone 4 by the pressure of iPhone release in India we got galaxy s2 before

Dear friends
Releasing of iPhone4 in India force to Samsung India to release galaxy.s2 before 2nd week of June.

Just a speculation and there are a lot of Topics about the release in India. You didn't have to create a separate Topic for that.

Where to buy in Sweden

Ok, since we already have threads about where to buy in UK or US, I thought I'd start a thread for us Swedes as well. There seems to be quite a few of us here
Since Panamoz is full of BS regarding their "worldwide shipping", where would be a good place to get a 7.7 for us now?
Some seems to recommend eBay seller rose528400 - has anyone ordered from him/her to Sweden?
Any other recommendations?

Seems like almost every retailer gets the 7.7 in stock next week. (Dustin, Komplett etc)
Expansys ships to Sweden, but it's only the wifi version.

You could try ditech.at they shipped to Germany already. Maybe write them a mail if they would ship to Sweden.
And I have the impression that the GTab 7.7 shall be in stock by mid February.

Yea, you are right - most retailers will probably have them in stock in a couple of weeks anyway
I just got a little annoyed about the "worldwide shipping" from Panamoz
I suppose I just have to wait a little, and then go down to my local store and actually try and feel the 7.7 before I buy it.

That's an advantage for the Swedish people, they can just buy it.
But since the device isn't allowed in Germany we buy it from Austria or whatever

There is another hint.
The cases from Noreve for the Tab 7.7 will be available from 16th February.
So maybe there will be the start/launch of the tablet.

anyone know when the 4g version will be released in sweden?

Living in Denmark, I ordered mine from komplett.dk in November. The first delivery date was estimated to 15 December. Then it was postponed until 2 January. Then again to 21 January. Then 3 February. Unsurprisingly, today it was yet again postponed to 14 February. Now I'm really getting annoyed. Komplett blames Samsung, so I'm kind of in a rut here.
I'm seriously considering cancelling my order and looking for options overseas...

Don't know if Expansys ships to Denmark but they have it in stock. Last time I checked they had both the wifi and 3g model in stock. Mine should arrive in the beginning of next week

Thanks for the tip. I ordered it from their danish web site.

Same here
I ordered from cdon.se.
They did postpone it the same way as your komplett.dk. And suddenly my order was cancelled. They removed the 7.7 from their website totally.
Maybe that was ok, instead of new delivery dates all the time.
Now, I've ordered from cyberphoto instead.
They only moved the date 1 time
Now they say: Maybe the 10 of February.
Don't believe it.
I really hope that Samsung will begin to deliver to the "Swedish" retailers....Please!!!!!

International Note II shipping on Sept. 27. $900.00!

Saw this:
$900.00!
Yesterday, we told you that US Cellular and Samsung India are accepting pre-orders for the Galaxy Note 2 and today were made public the release dates of Note 2 for several European countries. It seems like Europe will get the upcoming Samsung sensation phone first and you should try to find more info at your local dealers to find out if you can pre-order it.
Samsung says that it will start shipping the Note 2 ‘phablet’ starting with September 27 and the first country that will get it, is Germany. However, almost all European countries will receive the device in weeks 40 and 41 of 2012. It will be released with the latest Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean firmware and it comes in two different colors, Titan Gray and Marble White. You should check web sites of your local dealers and see if they are accepting pre-orders for Note 2.
The release dates for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 in Europe are these:
Germany – 27th of September.
Italy – 28th of September.
Netherlands, France and UK – October 1st and 2nd.
All other countries in the EU should get the device around the same dates. The device will pack a 5.5 inch 720p HD Super AMOLED display, an 8MP camera, 1.6 Exynos quad-core CPU, Premium Suite for Note, S Pen stylus, Corning Gorilla Glass 2 and the Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean OS.
The pricing of this smartphone-tablet device starts from 700 Euro, but it might differ from country to country. Also, Samsung said that they expect to sell at least twenty million units of the Note 2, but I personally think that that number is a little out of reach seeing that numerous phone manufacturers are getting ready to launch new devices in Q4 2012.
The Titanium Grey and Marble White are the available colors, just like the ones used for the Samsung Galaxy S3. If you like big screen devices and you take into consideration the specs of Note 2, then this device is a must-buy and you shouldn’t hesitate to purchase it, even if the pricing is around 700 Euro or $900. Tell us in comments that you think about Samsung’s new Note 2 device and whether you think that it will become an instant success or not.

price is high, GPU is old....
hope HTC will release a phablet soon (im buying only htc, samsung and sony. samsung is expensive and sony wont release a phablet..).

~ 2 more weeks and my suffering will be over (on a Nokia N97 temporary cuz my original note died on me )

The reason the price is so high is because it includes the VAT (value added tax)
For those outside Europe, the price should be about $150 lower.

oh..I always thought it was a "I Gotta Have It FIRST" tax.

According to the US Cellular pre-order, it's $299.99 contract and $799.99 off-contract.

Well i preordered mine on friday in sweden and they told me they will post it to me @ 26th to have it on the release day of 27th! this month!!
Next week will be epic once again. Ive missed my Note so much and have been in some ugly phones shoes for too long...
Titanium Grey ... What else?

810$ in Denmark is the cheapest I've found so far.

did you buy the international version ?
do you have the URL of the store ?

In India, the retailers are estimating it in the first week of October. Let's see though.

European retailers have links you have in stock soon.
If you can tell me I would appreciate some.

Cheapest I've found is at http://www.kogan.com/au/buy/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-grey-unlocked/

unfortunately not, even the Euro versions with LTE (right now there are at least 5 different versions, not all have LTE and the ones that do have LTE only work with a limited number of networks, most Euro versions will work with ATT 3G and 2G)

Thank you very much for the link to the store if you do not know any German website send outside Europe as it seems to be the first country to receive the note 2.
regards

oh yes october 1st for UK! Gunna have to buy this on release day!
Thanks for posting release dates crazeco

Note 2. Buy now? Australia market

i was reading some reviews on this cus im getting no doubt. im one that doesnt like to wait. if theres a way to get it done quicker,im down... anyhow,i went to the kogan website and it seems that you can purchse the international version on the 15th or somthing. of course full price,
my question is,willl the international version work in the states off our towers? i saw another thing to that i didnt understand. the international version comes with quad core. ours is only duel core. wtf

Who says our version is dual core? I havent been able to find out anything about an australian release and if the original notes australian launch is anything to go by we wont have it till march next year but it will be identical to the international note.

I agree with you mate. It has always been the same as the international version. I'm just holding back to see how the release dates come out in Australia. Clearly they can't release right now or end of September otherwise they will kill their own S3 4G version.
I'm expecting official release to be somewhere from end of October or mid November.
