Expected price of the GN 3 - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder what the expected price of the Note 3 would be after settling down for a month.
I see differing prices for preorders in some sits and it is way more expensive to the the price I paid for my unlocked Note 2.
Close to 950 USD..
I prebooked mine without even knowing the price.
Has anyone got an idea about this?

Don't think it will go down anytime soon. Just pay up and get it early

These are SIM unlocked (can be on multiple carriers) and possibly not bootloader locked. Let the buyer beware.

In italy we are expecting 729 euro, on the 25th of september.

Of course price will go down. Same thing happened last year. Hardcore fans will be pay that price but most average buyers will wait it out. I'm waiting price will drop once released, also lack of sales figures will help drop price.
If it saves me 50-100 Then it's worth the wait.

Just saw a post in ce4arab forum that a user saw it in display at a shopping mall.
Price is between 750 and 800 USD for the 3g and the lte.
I will go and meet the note 3 tomorrow.

$50 TO $100 will take months. not worth the wait to me

Netherlands is set at around €711 (T-Mobile)/€699 unbranded (Studentmobiel), Germany unbranded at around €649.
The S4 (snapdragon) was €649 at launch in Germany, and is €499 today. So prices do most certainly drop over time!

Watch this space, won't be long now. Some retailers already selling it cheaper then initial price of 649 can be picked up for 609 in the uk!! Probably due to several factors primarily poor preorders, still plastic, iPhone release date and rumours of Nexus 5. Patient is most certainly a virtue pal but of course if you are smartphone junkie that doesn't mean anything,
I can't help thinking Samsung are greedier then ever before, they give you less for your money. I'm personally waiting for nexus 5 to make up my mind which to get by then hopefully price would have dropped much further.

I payed about 700 euros for it (in the Netherlands)

@ sammath
Could you please share the site where you order it from and some details about availability?
Nowhere to preorder it in Belgium, I was considering placing an order at some UK store ( they stock it on 26th)...but the Netherlands is closer...
also,on all *.nl sites the availability is quoted "end september" as opposed to clove.co.uk where it clearly states 26th as shipping out date....in Germany it's 29th

To me, it's a toy, not food needed for nourishment or the cure for cancer.
I always bid my time and buy my toys long after the herds have settled down. I'll be getting the N3 (if i decide to get it) months and months after it's launched and for hundreds of dollars less. I can wait that long and it's worth it to me.
My current Note 2 cost me 300 and I didn't die because I didn't get it on day one rather than months later and much cheaper. Yeah, there are folks like me.
BTW, I really appreciate folks who go out and get stuff on day one regardless of price. You keep the game alive versus cheapos like me. ???

You're not a cheapie you've just got your priorities right. Essentials take precedence over luxuries.
Keep it up you're a dying breed in an age of consumption fuelled society.

Those who can afford to get in on it from the gate should go for it if they so wish, those who can't should wait until they can, simple as that.
There is nothing wrong with constantly buying "the next big thing" if you can afford it and nothing wrong with waiting if you can't.

Cant anything mentioning september on the product page.

Thats only 1 month away!
Very excited, and I want one so bad. But Im abit nervous cus there's hardly any apps yet. I wonder how many decent quality apps (proper apps i mean) will there be in 6 months?
I appreciate its a brand new device etc. I just hope we get apps quickly.
Not sure Im liking this annual cycle of technology, £499 is alot of money to be out of date 12 months later and trumped by new hardware.
In the mean time, is it worth it, just for the "sofa browsing" when I already spend most of my time infront of my pc, at home and work?
I am hoping they drop the price before next month slightly to be honest...

£499 is way over the odds considering you can get a 4G unsubsidised non-discounted one in the US for less than that. Dixons group are notorious for overpricing things and you would have to be a sucker to pay that price for it.

If they get enough pre-orders then no they won't. In fact they originally priced it at £449 then quickly withdrew it and added £50.
Everyone, if you order from Dixon's there's a discount code to get 10% off. Just ordered mine at £449.99
Code is DXPC10 but only available until 8th March.

SGSII Launching at Bell Canada on July 14 ?!!!

Hi everyone,
What do you guys think about this source?
http://techfibe.com/2011/06/17/exclusive-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-landing-on-bell-july-14th/
Looks like we Canadians might get our hands on this device next month.
I was going to purchase the international version but now waiting for official release seems like a better option. Do you guys have any predictions for the price without contract? (Bell sells Atrix for $600 so It might be a bit expensive than that, this would still be cheaper than buying it online right now b/c of all the shipping and tax costs)
I sure hope it's true
I wonder if it's the same version as the international one, or if it's NFC enabled?
I'd really like to change my SGS for this beauty, but this time I'll test the sh*t out of the GPS, before the 14 days "buyer's remorse" period it's over.
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA premium
This is good news for fellow canucks. After ordering it from handtec and paying import taxes it came up to almost $800. Don't mind having an unbranded and factory unlocked model though. And yeah, it'll be interesting to see if it ends up having NFC, even though id never see myself actually using it.

SGSII
I doubt it will have NFC, it would be nice to have it but I really don't care as I don't think anyone will actually use it for next two years.
The only reason I am holding back on ordering from handtec (390 GBP = $620 CAD.. price has dropped quite a bit) is b/c of the warranty and returns policy. If the device is defective I would have to ship it back to Europe and its just too much of a hassle.
I am not too worried about the tax/import charges as I will have to pay taxes if I buy from bell. So in the end I'll end up saving around $25 if I buy from Bell. And since the phone will be locked it ends up costing the same as handtec, that is if Bell sells the phone for $600-$625.
On a side note, I do look forward to switching from Wind to Bell or Rogers though. What do you guys think about the service, which one is better in terms of reception in GTA, Ontario?

Rogers for sure, I'm in Markham and travel to Hamilton for school and I always have reception in both areas... but Rogers plans are expensive, thats the only downfall.
Mobile Syrup reports the HTC Sensation is being released by Bell on July 5th. The approximate retail value is $549.95 which would be some nice competition to the Samsung Galaxy S II.
I should sell my Incredible S before these two monsters hit Bell
Was in TO past weekend and checked out the phone @ Pac Mall and the price for the S2 is between $700 to $720 unlocked depending on which store you ask. Already ordered the case via eBay and once I get the case (when this strike is over) then will get the phone. I am with Rogers and IMHO always thought Rogers had better reception than Bell but probably that's cuz I have always been biased against Bell and the idea that their reception is not as good as Rogers. =)

I can confirm this release.
I was at my Bell store and the guy said the release was in the "third week of July"
I asked for the price but he said he was unsure at the time, he said he would probably know next week.
I also went down to the Rogers store in the same mall and the clerk there had no idea what the S2 was... guess it isn't coming to Rogers?

O2 gave me such a fu©king run around with promising to match that deal, then 2 days later saying they couldn't that I decided to go to Vodafone after 11 years with O2.
Yesterday O2 send me a mail saying my order was being processed for £250 handset at £75 a month for 24 months... I was proper peeved. Sorted now, but put me off O2 a hell of a lot.
this deal is the cheapest I seen so far I think.

Already Pre-Oredered my Galaxy Note II GT-N7100

I placed my pre-order for my Galaxy Note II at MobileCityOnline already. It's the same price I paid for my GT-N7000 last October and from the same source. So far they're the only vendor I found (from my search of the web) even offering/accepting pre-orders for the Note II.
They've always been a great place to buy anything mobile. This will be my 4th phone from them and they really are incredible. You get good prices, great service, and most of all - fast & FREE shipping plus I don't get stuck with all those BS taxes that would've been added on if I bought from a nearby B&M store. I've never had a problem with them, ever.
I'm not trying to sound like a commercial and NO I don't work for them, I don't work at all, but they're the real deal. The only thing that sucks are the price drops after a few months but that's what goes with being an early adopter. After almost a year the GT-N7000 is still commanding $550 which really isn't bad, it's buying accessories that suck. I'm sticking with just the necessary items this time like just one case, screen protectors, and maybe spare battery.
If anyone finds a better deal please share and pass it on in here so we ALL can take advantage of the deal and save some cash.
Almost a grand a year on a smartphone is crazy - not including the phone and data services - is getting old FAST! I'm sticking with this 5.5", Exynos Quad-Core for a while despite getting the same GPU with it. This beast should handle anything I intend on using it for.
***Update***
I'm here now to officaially eat crow - after having been told story after story I have decided to go with Handtec simply because the good nature another member - you know who you are - I even have my FedEx tracking number. Come Tuesday I'll be smokin' on my GT-N7100 after all!
For how much will they have it?
I want one too, but I need to sell my Note 1 first.
Can't justify that to the wife.
They're asking $699 FREE shipping, NO TAXES, and your card isn't charged until it leaves MobileCityOnline's warehouse. Really at this point you can't lose since most vendors price gouge ANYONE who ever pre=orders!
Good luck selling your GT-N7000. I'm handing mine down to wife who's still stuck on an Sprint EVO 4G. Happy hunting and good luck - if you find a better deal could you please share it here
I'm no John D. Rockefeller, but, I can tell you this, if you find it less at some other vendor do your homework before you buy from anyone!

Per ordered the note 2 with mobilecityonline as other sites were charging from 725 to 750...I live in Canada and the shipping is only 29 so it's only 729 with shipping and no taxes
HK is releasing them very soon, and shipping very soon. already priced at 677USD
There is nothing wrong with a pre order thread.
I don't believe there is a confirmed released price yet, so it doesn't matter where you pre order from yet. All prices are subject to change.

I'm not even sure there are confirmed specs yet, lol. What is the advantage to ordering it this early?
That having been said, I don't think he's trying to sell it, he's just ordered this way in the past and hasn't regretted it, so I'm sure he won't this time.
It seems as though the AT&T version should be out fairly soon (like with the SGS 3), and the specs might actually be as good or better, so I'm gonna try to wait for the subsidized version. Especially since I can probably sell this one for as much as AT&T will be asking for the new one.

I hope it doesn't get pulled in for taxes or duties. My S3 did and I had to pay up the bum.

The advantage is, if you decide you want it, you'll be first in line to get one.
And of course, if you don't, you can always cancel at anytime.
It depends on a lot of things, but ordering something on release day can mean a hefty wait
while preorders get filled.

To those who obviously CANNOT READ -I clearly stated I DON'T WORK, I'm disabled...so I clearly am NOT - got it - NOT drumming up business for anyone in anyway. I'm simply sharing what I believe to be important money saving information. My comments are from my experiences with MobileCityOnline.
Also, FYI, last year when I pre-orded from MCO this same price was posted for my current Galaxy Note. Interestingly, 2 or 3 weeks they happened to raise the price of the GT-N7000 by almost $100. MCO did a ballsy thing, they honored the pre-ordered price. For me personally they earned my loyalty. I'll never buy an unlocked and international smartphone from anyone else!
From that point on whoever either P-O or @ the time ordered, since they received stock were stuck with the higher price PLUS had to pay for shipping. The free shipping was part of the P-O package. So to all those who ask what are the advantages of pre-ordering I say there are plenty of reasons. Your reasons may not be the same as mine but the fact remains there are definitely advantages of doing so.
Now to the morons who can't seen to get a grip with the fact I do not work for MCO in any capacity - I say if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all. I'll gladly provide proof of why I am disabled in the form of pictures showing the zippers I received from the 22 surgeries that caused my situation which are personal anyway. But to shut you up is gladly do whatever out takes to back up any words that come out of my mouth.
By doing so I request you eat you're crow by publicly retracting your immature words via a simple reply to this thread. I don't enjoy your punky disposition or your questioning or you spewing false statements for your pleasure!

Using disability money to buy new phones every year while earning some side cash by being a shill.
Our tax dollars hard at work it looks like.
Ya know.. I would first figure out what or how he got disabled before making a comment like that. In fact.. I wouldn't make a comment like that at all. Imagine if he was a decorated vet.. someone who bled for the country.
Again.. not knowing who familyman's story.. but just making some observations.

UK availibility

I have been looking at a number of posts showing that some areas like the US have early availability. There was even one showing a youtube clip of a US T-mobile store with someone in the store demoing 3 Note 3s and saying at the end to a girl that she would go home with one. I wanted to know if anyone has seen or knows of a UK retailer that is selling them early in shop?
I have heard Tuesday night in London samsung store experience is having a event at night

I've been trying, I have rung countless stores. Carphonewarehouse have them in stock as of Thursday but refuse to sell them, all local stores to me also say they can't sell them till 25th :/
O2 refresh pre-order
I did pre-order mine via O2 refresh, then I spoke to customer services and they confirmed that it should be delivered on the 25th.
fingers crossed
I tried to preorder one from Three UK last night but in the end they said they'd call me Wednesday (launch day?) when they are in stock and get me one sent out for Thursday. Might ring a Three store first thing Wed. and go get one if they have stock. Not bad deal, £99 for phone on 24 month contract with 500 mins, 5000 texts and unlimited data, soon to be 4g too

Want to get this from Amazon UK... no sign of stock yet though!
I pre-ordered at the Samsung Experience Store in London. The initial price was £649, but they are doing a promotion to trade in any phone (doesn't need to be a smartphone or even working) for a £50 discount, making the Note 3 £599.
However I popped in to the store tonight and saw that they had reduced the non-promotional price to £629. I was refunded the difference, so my Note 3 will now cost £579 (trading in an old dumb-phone handset I have lying in a drawer). The price with the promo (limited to the first 500 pre-orders apparently) is the cheapest I have seen in the UK and is actually now cheaper than the online sites if you have a spare old phone (or you could buy an uber cheap one off EBay). For the promo, you must provide the trade-in phone when picking up the Note 3.
I can also confirm that the store will be hosting a special launch night at 6pm on Tuesday the 24th, where people who pre-ordered can pick up their handsets the day before the official release and likely a couple of days before online orders from other retailers will be delivered. They said they're due to get some accessories in on the same day, but could not confirm any pricing for those at the moment. I've seen some sites listing the S-View cases at around £45-50 which seems pretty steep. I'm hoping that they might have some sort offers (or maybe even freebies) available at the launch event, but I'm not holding my breath!
Hope this information is helpful to someone. I think you can pre-order the Note 3 from the store by phone and have them post the handset to you, but I don't think that would qualify for the trade-in offer, so at £629 you're better off going with Handtec or Clove.
Edit - I forgot to mention that they also had demo handsets in both white and black out on display in the store tonight, they look awesome!
It seems to me from reading this thread, seeing Youtube posts and also going to shops in London that many shops have already received them. But for some reason the UK stores are more afraid to violate Samsung's embargo than some of the US and other shops. I will make another go on Monday and see if I can at least get a sighting. If I am successful I will post the information here.

I have pre ordered too mate, I will call them tomorrow regards the price. Any idea what time they are open until on Tuesday? I could go straight from work maybe it'd be a rush but would save me wasting a day Wednesday travelling down
They will be open until their usual time of 9pm on Tuesday.

Is there any way of knowing if you are one of the first 500? If I place a pre-order now with the trade in old phone option at the price of £579, and at the time of pick up they say I wasn't one of the 500 - could I cancel my order?
Thanks.
