I have been looking for a note and noticed that the prices haven't came down and have risen in some stores. Thats pretty cool and shows its a great idea.
I'm selling my and Ebay for 600

oh yes! I seen the cheapest one from Amazon Fulfilled was $630 last month...I got mine for $680 - $10 (credit for future purchase) on 12/30/2011.
Now the cheapest from Amazon seller is $725.
It is pretty remarkable. I got it for $649 from Amazon two weeks ago...now it's approaching $800.
Prices will tank once AT&T launches so if you are on the fence today, I'd sell while it's hot.
No mine isn't for sale
I wouldn't sell if I bought unlocked international for cheaper than $650. ATT locked down and filled with bloat will suck. I wish I hadn't dropped and cracked mine. It also shows that it is a product consumers really want.

I don't think it is too wise to be getting the ATT version which is a big downgrade with its Qualcomm S3, especially the international version is also compatible with its network.
We got them all over hong kong. I spent 550 usd for this one.

Only reason why prices are going up is because less people are importing the Note now that AT&T has announced its version. I guess from their perspective, some of these gray-market importers are worried that people might no longer purchase their stock now that it is available in the US.
Less supply = Price jump.

I don't buy it new egg can't keep them in stock. On amazon they are going up in price when everything else decreases.
i have been looking for a galaxy note for a week and it is out of stock every where i have looked.
I noticed a general drop in supply and increase in demand for all devices, probably seasonal.
People want Samsung smartphones and there were supply problems. At some point, of 250 suppliers only 20 had the product in stock.
Also the S II increased in price and was/is available here in Europe for 450 euros, just 50 euros less then the Note. Supply dropped so much that even used S II could get more then 400 euros. The Note is at 500/550 euros here. Was sold out on Amazon (not amazon marketplace). At that moment the price of a used Note and a new Note were the same on Amazon Germany (marketplace).
But the Note is not the S II. The Note is a niche product and nobody knows how big this niche will be in the future.
On Ebay the best worldwide price for a new Note is 519 euros + shipping.
About the Note i717 version, it is not the same phone. The i717 version has lte but no exynos. It is has value in the US, but outside the US, in many countries it is not LTE compatible.
So outside the US, with the i717 version you do not get exynos and also do not have the benefit of LTE. And the i717 has this typically american modification of the 4 touch keys.

In the States everything but the note has dropped. The Galaxy nexus is down and available everywhere and so is the s2.
When the US major carriers get their version specific hand sets you would see a sharp drop in prices, increase number of users/modders and even other unwelcome posts in the forums. Till then enjoy

In the US the market for Note international is a small, unofficial, importers market.
Officially, the Note International does not exist on the normal US market. Samsung USA does not offer it or list it as an existing product.
Why should a product that does not exist on the US market fall in price?
It may even increase in price when people find out the international version is much better because it has exynos. With the price of i717 falling from everyone selling and the Note international price rising from everyone buying.

99% of the users wont care for specs, what they care is about how they get the device and how easy it will be to obtain after market support and also those phones that come free or partially paid with the contract. But lets just wait and see.

Does the international S2 cost more or less then the US S2 in the US?

More but not by much.
The thing with the Note is that once you use it you realise how fantastic it is. This feeds through to reviews and word of mouth. Was playing with a friends Galaxy S2 today and it felt so underwhelming and small . Samsung have redefined PDAs with this device. Can't imagine going to anything smaller or slower.
I bought the white note 5 days ago and I love every second using it. Its pure magic...
White is truly beautiful on this device.

But once you go black, you never go back
For those that don't want to bother with Ebay I've found that ASDA are paying £223.50. Free postage.
Once you put all your details in the price is valid for 14days, so if you're waiting for your SIII I'd get in now as the price is bound to drop!
If anyone has seen any places paying more then post here.
ASDA Price Drop .
Now listed as £210-50 via web .(o2 promise to match best trade in offer by the way )
At the current trade in price and the current selling price plus the what more you get with S3 its not a deal that makes me rush out to order .
Sold S1 for £240 this time last year and paid £400 for SGS2 .

this samsung galaxy camera is available in france for £281 today!!! amazon france is cheaper than the uk and they all deliver for about 7.5£ to the uk from my experience of buying from amazon.de previously. the 281£ is after getting the samsung france 100euro cash back available to only those in france. So we in the UK are getting ripped off as most places it is 399£ and a bit less on amazon. Was just about to buy this now from amazon but cancelled purchase after seeing the amazon france price and cash back got pissed off as am not willing to pay nearly 120£ more than those in france for exactly the same camera.
Will wait now till prices crash here to the same level as in france.. see link yourself http://www.amazon.fr/Samsung-Galaxy...LA6I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1355314020&sr=8-2 and the cash back in france http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/imag...cs/mix/page-produits/2012_ODRGALAXYCamera.pdf
exchange rate used for calculation £1= 1.23777euros as per todays rate. amazon france price when i saw it now is 449 euros.
uploaded the same to youtube so that the video gets picked up by the tags along with other samsung galaxy camera videos. Hopefully the prices in the UK will fall too like in france and people interested in buying this may save 100euros like in france or there abouts. I have written to samsung UK by uploading my review on the samsung galxy camera webpage but guess it wont get posted there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvzyu0CNyAQ
samsung customer service and public relations link
am linking the samsung public relations and customer service link http://www.samsung.com/uk/info/contactus.html for the uk. I have already written to them asking why as a customer in the UK i am being asked to pay £120 more than in france for the same product due to the lack of a samsung cash back scheme.
If others write to them at the public relations contact link then we might get the samsung cash back scheme here in the UK too like in france. So please take a few mins to write to them at the link above in case you are interested in buying the camera and want the same 100euro cash back in the the UK too.
my play list on youtube for this camera is here http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGQqgL4AHFjKXgDtSJU7kQf_do0zLG4QN&feature=edit_ok with about 40 videos on it presently which prospective buyers might find useful
Just get my buddle in France for a very good price :

With the 100 euros back from Samsung you get the galaxy cam, 16gig memory card, one extra battery with the charger for 350 euros.
wow, Samsung is quite unfair in the UK.
in the Netherlands you get €100 cashback and a 1GB prepaid SIM if you get a galaxy camera, and in the UK you only get about €65 and you have to buy both a camera and a phone.
they are really trying to discourage people from claiming it though.
the promotions site, registration form, and tech support all say something different, and if the form doesn't print right away you have to fill it in again(I had to do it 5 times)
Bought the Samsung WB850F camera instead. It is also a Wi-Fi camera with remote view and mobile link apps. Similar zoom lens and sensor but not touch screen and not android but support for android phones is there. Half price now on amazon at £175 plus you get £50 Samsung cash back, so effectively costs £125 and £260 less than the Samsung Galaxy camera with same sensor and zoom lens and remote view and mobile link apps. So opted for the cheaper option and will tether it to my Samsung Galaxy note.
Hi, I was about to buy a Samsung galaxy note 3 for 500€ and at least in Spain Samsung had a deal that gave 100€ off if you bought it before 28th of February, as you can imagine, I didn't buy it, so
Can you recommend a web page to buy it as cheap as possible or something?
Hi guys, i will be transiting in Hongkong and i'm looking to buy a note 4 there.
i'm looking particularly for the snapdragon 805 version (n910f)...

any helps will be appreciated, thanks!

Yo I would be careful out in Mong Kok or Golden computer arcades areas, you will be hard pressed to find an SD out there unless someone has bought some from the states.
Exy is what you would find as Korea is not far off from Hong Kong.
TBF my EXY was bought from my local dealer in SAI Kung off the east coast.
My whole family buys of one authorised dealer in that town for the last ten years no issues and no problems he even offers to buy back old tech at a fair price.
I can't guarantee you the prices I get, as he he is a family friend, but I can offer you his address and you can try and see what he has?
But like I said becarefull of the copy market.
I live in the UK and everytime I have any issues I take a picture of the reciept send it to Samsung UK as he is an authorised seller so the UK Samsung have dealt with my issues quickly without any hasstles so the international guarantee is good!
buy it at the airport. HKIA has a phone shop near the cafe / lounges.
the exynos version is far superior than the snapdragon.

Nah bro! Thx for the advice on mongkok and golden computer square! Was planning to go to mongkok to buy one but after seeing your advice and seeing that the fake one is the one that has n910f tag, i will be much more carefull when going there..
Btw thank you for the offer on the authorised dealer, but if i'm planning to buy the exy version i will be buying through expansys or other authorised shop. Thx!

Is there any price different between the shop at airport and other shop like fortress or expansys due to tax or duty free?
Was planning to buy the snapdragon one because more developer supports (it has cm12 already!). But might change my minds.. Thx for the reply.
Hello the airport is a safe option it would expect to pay a little more money.
The model of the phone would be SM-N910U same as the exynos 8 core unit SM-N910C.
I've not tried the snapdragon except in a shop and both are good but even everything I expect read maintains the exynos version is better considering its the primary handset used in Korea. I would expect people to pay about 7000k in HKD dollars or roughly U$900. Might be cheaper but don't know never bought one at an airport. But I got mine last year for 6500k so it should have dropped in price. Also look at the edge as it might be out by now.
The one being sold in fortress is the galaxy note 4 duos, sm-n9100 which is fine. It's pretty much identical to the regular snapdragon note 4, but just be aware which model you are purchasing.

I know for a fact that the Hong Kong Version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 use the Exynos SOC rather than the Snapdragon. As the model number for the Hong Kong Version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is SM-N910H.
The best place to get one would be in Fortress or Broadway as both of these store sell the official retail Hong Kong Version.
My only question is would the Hong Kong Version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 be Region Free?
