UPDATE (2nd Nov 2011)
===================
Samsung Galaxy Note launched in India with a MRP. of Rs.34990/- and will be available everywhere within a weeks time starting today. Also the first 100,000 units will come with a free complimentary leather case worth 2200/-.
Now the bad news: on asking the samsung people about ICS update for galaxy note they couldnt comment neither about availability nor could confirm whether it would be updated to ICS at all.
UPDATE: According to one of the tech reviewing sites igyaan (who were present at the india launch event), they have confirmed from samsung officials that Galaxy note will indeed get ICS update. That seems promising !

Well let it launch once, one way is, we all indian members can enquire for the cheapest group buy prices in our cities and order from wherever we get it most cheap.

Ah well, I already ordered mine from Germany.

Actually I got it from eBay, the seller had decent reviews so I thought what the heck. I couldn't get it ordered from online German retailers since the only one which could ship to India was charging me 290 Euro for shipping. It is set to be shipped today and then delivered within 3-5 business days, hope it goes well.
EDIT : It was 820$(USD) plus 79$ for shipping. I'm not sure what the import duty will be, but I'll deal with it.

good luck with indian customs ... im sure saale bahut jyaada charge karenge tujhko .. all the best !

I only had to pay 14% for my ipad 2, it can't be more than that. Plus I chose fedex which has there own custom clearance department so it gets processed faster.

That's still so expensive..smh.. hope its price is lower when it launches in India.. 40k+ Rs is just too much.. its supposed to be a hybrid of galaxy tab 750 and a galaxy s2.. so ithe price is supposed to be in between.. but since Samsung doesn't want to interfere in the sell of the new galaxy tab, it is costlier.. and besides there is still no other product in d phoblet department to compete with the galaxy note.. so its goin to be expensive here too ,I guess

It's supposed to arrive today

Galaxy tab Where to buy?

I have i9000 and would like to buy Samsung Galaxy tab as soon as possible.
I need to have at least one pcs in September.
I found few links:

there is no information about availability but I expect answer from them. 899$
there is none on ebay yet.
Sorry to burst you bubble, but the prices aren't yet confirmed, and I'm near certain that they will be released by mobile carriers first. Clove and expansys have had them listen for some days now, and indeed probably since the announcement, but they are guessing at the prices. As for delivery date... Well they might have a concrete date for delivery, but I don't think there has been anything from samsung that we know of, so they could be guessing at that too, since we know 'early october'.

Just because they put a standard sticker on the page saying ' price confirmed' in no way means that its true. Its just to get people to pre order from them over anyone else.
They is STILL no official announcement on price.

There is no rush to buy this, you are better off waiting, there will be excess supply for at least a few days after pricing is announced. You aren't catching any better deals by rushing either, just asking for price gouging.
ummm...
i am thinkin about going to koria
is that any good - graping the device-wise -
If I recall correctly, the device is coming to the EU first anyway, so going to korea might not actually speed anything up at all. Also, although I couldn't speak to the exchange rate, but since Korea is likely to be a hot market, the prices could be artificially high at release, so keep that in mind to.
Its also worth to keep in mind that the Korean version will be CDMA (ie like a verizon/sprint devce) and not a GSM one, which will mean that you won't be able to use the mobile data connection in Europe at all because it won't have the right radio.
I would like to buy one pcs no metter what praice is. Even if is 1000euro. But really need that device before the others.
I am sure that some pcs will be ready on market before others. Probably like late September. But on stock's world wide will be from 15 October.
1000$ on amazon.co.uk

Samsung Galaxy S3 already on sale in Dubai

It seems like the Galaxy S3 is already on sale in Dubai more than a week before its official release date. According to the website, multiple sources confirmed the story to be true.
Is there anyone in Dubai around here ?
http://www.android.gs/samsung-galaxy-s3-now-on-sale-in-dubai/
Not quite, but I have a friend who lives there... I'll ask him and return with an answer
I'd better start calling my relatives in Dubai and see if they've got some spare change for a Galaxy S3
This is unfair!
I want the GS3 already!!!
I can confirm they are on sale in Dubai. 2499AED.
More people confirmed it, so it seems to be true.
Talked on Facebook with my friend in Dubai and asked him to check out Galaxy S3 availability... He said that it's already available for purchase, priced 2,500 AED
Could anyone ask about the colours and storage options it is available in dubai..?
Wow out early and it's cheaper.
cheaper than uk
2499aed =£430 = $680

They are all 16Gb.
The store I checked had 4 white ones in stock. They said they might receive some blue tomorrow morning. If so, I'm going go down there, compare the two colours and buy the one I like.
nice to know they got white, hopefully that means the online stores wont have a delay on white.

The units sold/in stock have been white.

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.

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.

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.

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

I don't know in wich country you are living in but ask them about the region lock thing, they should be able to unlock it for you if this is the case.

How much are they charging? Or is it just a waiting list. I emailed them asking about dates, prices, and lock. Will update when I get a reply.

I live in the US. I know that the Note 4 will be coming out in October of this year.
Then they said the note edge will be released before the end of this year. I did read somewhere that the Canada release was going to be the bring of 2015 and it would be after the US launch.
either way I am getting this phone ASAP.
Just pre ordered the black version of Edge from Clove in UK. Hope Samsung releases the phone soon.
Preordering in Romania
Hi there!
In Romania you can preorder the 64 gb version on quickmobile.ro at a price of about 1.000 euros!!!!
A bit too much if you ask me! (taxes included).

I saw this ebay ad for a Galaxy Note Edge pre-order for £559 with est delivery for 28 October to 4t Nov.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171485130761?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&fromMakeTrack=true
Seems a bit doggy - title was misleading, it says Galaxy Note 4 Edge. So I asked the following questions:
1. Can you confirm it's the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 or the Galaxy Note Edge you're selling? It's confusing because the title says Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Edge.
2. Is this UK or International version?
3. Are you selling the 32GB or 64GB model?
4. Since this is a pre order, what are your policy on cancellation?
Got this reply back:
Hi
Follow the below link ..
www.samsung.com/uk/GalaxyNote4
2GB RAM+16GB ROM
Product is full uk spec version.
1 year warranty

Now I am convinced its doggy!
But aren't the international versions lacking the proper LTE bands? I really don't want to spend that much $ and not get LTE!

Hi guys,
I am considering buying this from Japan via internet, I wanted to know the following:
If Samsung releases updates firmware, will I be able to update the phone?
Is there anything else I need to watch out for?
Many thanks in advance.

I saw them on ebay for $999.
And yes they will have the branding on the battery back.
And some wont have the LTE since the US uses a different brand for it.
Its best to just wait till he hits your area and buy it then.

Yep, its the one on ebay. I asked seller some questions about it working in UK, they replied back saying it won't work on all carriers. I will probably have to give up on that one.
The problem is no one has even the faints of idea when it would come to UK. I don't want to wait for months. Might force myself to buy the Note 4.

Waiting is better then giving in for something you don't want or spending money on something that might not work for you.
When they had talk about the note 4 I wasn't to much in to it.
I had an s2 for a very long time. Everybody ask when I was going to upgrade to the s3. But i didnt want it since it wasn't that big of a difference. Then the htc one m7 came out so I got that since it was a bigger upgrade for me.
then I got the note 3 from there.
And I know how samsung does things and knew it wouldn't be a big leap. From my note 3 to the note 4.
But then I hear about the edge and I've been waiting that phone since they show the tech demo last year.
So Yea wait for what you really want. Or you could rock the note 4 and sell it when the edge is released in your area.
or you can blow a hole in your wallet and buy both haha

Thanks for you advice. I agree with what you're saying, I know I'll never be entirely happy and will always be looking out for the Edge. But not knowing when, if ever it will come to my country is the problem.
Avenging,
Wish I could buy both but that won't happen.
I think I'll get N4 now and sell it off as soon as the Edge becomes available.

Nexus 6 Saudi Thread (Pricing and Availability)

I have been to the Jarir bookstore here in khurais road but still no news of incoming nexus 6. Its kinda sad, im hoping to get the item upon getting my month end salary but the longer i wait, the more im inclined to buy note 4 which is already available at the jarir store. Anyone else here in Saudi waiting for the nexus 6? My guess the pricing will be around 2500 SR.

Hi there, I'm from Riyadh, I too, also patiently waiting for the Nexus 6 to arrive here. Unfortunately it's not available yet. Maybe we have to wait until December. =( But I think it's worthy to wait, I don't kinda like the touchwiz software of the note4, pure stock vanilla android lollipop is the best. I wish the price will just be around 2000sr. =)
From Dubai
Waiting for this to be released in dubai. Many online Sites have it listed as coming soon but no prices. And Nexus 9 went on sale this week in Jumbo Electronics. :fingers-crossed:

I hear you man. I broke my Nexus 4 last night, screen completely shattered. Don't want to buy Nexus 5 from Jarir, so I'm gonna stuck with my old SGSII for a while till the Nexus 6 is available. Using Touchwiz after using pure stock android is a drawback.
Finger crossed they'll make it available soonish.
I went back to jarir and as of today, still no word of any nexus 6 shipping. The good thing is hopefully we wont be getting the faulty first batch of nexus 6. I see alot complaints already like peeling nexus logo, flimsy speaker grill and scratched back cover.
any news on the availability of this phone? my phone screen broke yesterday, and now I need a new phone
I need this phone now

My dad is come home from Dubai for a couple of weeks, then he as to go back. I go there once a year, myself. I's an amazing place, however, electronics are expensive there; unless you go to Dragon Mart and get knockoffs. lol.
and still no word from jarir for the nexus 6
Hmmmm.. Any body can going to "Al-mursalat" and ask him?

I don't recommend asking in Almursalat area, it is better to support official channels like STC, Mobily... etc,. This way, demand on devices will guarantee fast availability on newly released devices. Unofficially, however, I'm sure that imported devices from the UK for example are available, but I wont take it with no warranty and no guarantee on full network support.
In STC magazine, the Nexus 6 was posted as a "Coming Soon" device, Most likely in the upcoming month or two, on and off contract. The prices were not announced but I'm guessing, based on previous releases like the nexus 5, that it will be around the official US price of $650 (USD).
I hope I was thorough in answering your question.
you can buy it on amazon uk. Yes, it's expensive when converting £ to SR, but this the only way now or you can wait 1-3 months. I've already paid 4173 SR (incl. tax) for nexus 6 64gb model XT1100 (LTE works in saudi arabia).

Nexus 6 Saudi Arabia
Still Jarir people are refusing to even comment on the availability of nexus 6. The point is this that why Jarir, extra and similar stores are so lazy in bringing some devices to the market in Saudi Arabia. Even they had very limited stocks of Note 4, it came and it disappeared very quickly even in Riyadh.
In Mursalat I went today and no availability of Nexus 6 there too. Anybody knows tentative launch of nexus 6 via STC?
you can search dubizzle. there is a guy offering new nexus 6 as per his speech (i think these phones are shipped to him from US or EUROPE unofficially) . if you decided to go for it ... let us know

It's Here!
Good News!
I'm happy to bring you the good news!! STC just released Nexus 6, exclusively, through their channels.
The price tag is SR2799 off contract with limited 1 year warranty. On-contract, however, STC is offering a whole system that depends on your "rating" and "rank" in the company's records. Call STC to know what criteria you fall under.
I would add the link to the device but I don't have that privilege, being a new user, to add links in the forum.
However, navigate to STC's website, go to devices and you'll find it in the newly added devices section, you can't miss it.
I hope you find this post helpful, have a good one.
