AT&T Note 3 On Sale October 4 - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General

I went into my local att store today to play with the display note 3 that just got set up today. When I was chatting with the the sales man about the note 3 he informed me that att would not start selling the note until Friday, October 4th, rather than the 1st as their website would suggest and that rumor reports would have us believe. Obviously, I was a little annoyed and thought he may be simply misinformed, until I called another att store about 5 miles away who stated the same thing. So just as a heads up to any att users out there waiting to pick up a note 3, att will put it on sale Friday 10/4/2013. As for the other issue of being a little dissapointed with the note 3, that's a whole other story for another thread.

I found the same when visiting a local AT&T store as well.
One more week of waiting, while using the Galaxy Nexus as my backup phone....painfully...
Actually, what I'm disappointed for the moment is the lack of accessory options, especially good covers.
I can't wait to have the option of getting a leather wallet case for this new device!

This isn't news and it's still not confirmed. I've been given dates of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th.

Today I went in hoping to check out the Note 3 before it came out however I was bummed out when the guy said, "Yeah those dont come out until the 4th." To which I replied, "Well do you have one on display so that I dont have to spend a lot of time checking the phone out before purchasing it on the 4th, seeing as it may be a little crowded?". He then said, "Nope we wont have any of them in stock until the 4th when the phone is released." I think I will wait until the Note 3 and One Max come out, compare in store, and then make my purchase online so they wont get any commision.

what I don't get is what carriers gain by not giving out the correct release dates? Especially to people who are coming in to actually buy the phone.. . I mean what business practice or marketing benefit Could this possibly be ? In my eyes it only serves to annoy People who are coming in to sign contracts or in my case drop nearly 800 dollars on a phone, yet they screw us around. I just dont get this kind of business. Anyway, while the maybe old news apparently to Zach I wasn't aware of ATT not releasing the Note 3 on the 1st as their website and media outlets have suggested ... I simply wanted to pass on the info to others in my position waiting around For Note 3, although it did give me the chance to play with it and realize how similar my Note 2 was and 2nd guess my decision or if I do get Note 3, 2nd guess ordering it offline vs. giving att my money.

I went to look at the Galaxy Note 3 last night, love the screen, the weight, and the fact it is a little slimmer. Anyways, the reps told me last night it was being sold on the 1st!

If I had a guess, they will ship pre-orders out on the 1st for people that ordered online, but maybe they wont sell in store until the 4th? I feel like something similar happened with the Note 2 if I remember right, but I'm not sure.

I went into an ATT OWned store yesterday - saw the NOTE 3 on display - asked when I could buy it and was told to come back on October 1st.

The video was posted on September 27, so it seems like it was actually being unboxed by an AT&T employee or a reviewer. I've read somewhere on this forum that the AT&T employees did not get the headphone and the other goodies that would normally be shipped to consumers of these phones. Nothing confirmed, but the AT&T website might be the best source.

I went to an AT&T store last night at Roosevelt Field, mall on Long Island, NY. They had a white Note 3 on display. I have been wanting to get it anyway, but it was even better than my expectations. I was getting nervous reading the negative posts on here, but I was very impressed. Definitely upgrading from the Note 2. I asked the sales rep if the phones would be available on Tuesday and he said "Yes, Tuesday." I hope that is true and he wasn't just agreeing with me.

I just called the AT&T store in LI, and they told me that people who walk-in to buy the phone won't be able to do so intil the 10th!! People who pre-ordered will be able to get the phone on the 6th at the earliest.
Other stores in the NYC area have said they will have the phone on sale on the 4th as well...

I won't know until I get the device, however, it looks like it will be just as flashable as the N9000 and N9005.

Thanks man great news.

I just called another store on LI (Huntington) and the guy said that they pushed the release until Friday. (the 4th)

Was in am ATT store in Cincinnati about an hour ago they said the first but they could be full of it.

Web site merely states approximate ship dates if you pre-order. I haven't seen anything showing an in-store date on their website..

[OFFICIAL] February 22nd Release Date (Update:Pre-orders shipped!)

EDIT: It's official now! Release date on the 22nd. Shipped orders to arrive on the 21st!
EDIT: Pre-orders before yesterday are now shipped! They will be delivered on the 21st!
I'd like to think its legit, but there seem to be so many people pulling hoaxes these days for attention. On a positive note, I've gotten a lot of at&t phones on launch day, and I'm pretty sure 1 or 2 wasn't on a Sunday.

True true. Everyone wants to make a picture that shows up in the news. This one looks no more legit than the last.
Which means AT&T has 6 days to fix this backorder issue, or preorders are going to get screwed.
People will walk in-store and grab theirs, while we wait at the mailbox for our preorders.

I work for AT&T, I haven't seen that message that is going around about early release yet but it looks legit. It mentions internal systems that we use and we have all the price tags up in store. It's rare for use to put a spot on the wall for a phone that is several weeks out.

Thanks for the post!
Message seems legit, though I haven't seen this email passed amongst the ranks of store employees yet. That would be very awesome if it comes to be true, I can't take another day of my Samsung Moment and Sprint's poor coverage where I live.
The wife and I have our upgrades on the 26th, I hope you guys have a chance to wring this thing out for 4 days before we go get ours.
Holy crap I hope this is true. I am about to throw my Fuze out of window
I didn't realize how many of us are still clinging to our fuzes.
It also looks like they finally fixed the Premiere store for people wanting upgrades. Yesterday it would only let me upgrade to an iPhone (any variety) and some crappy Nokia. This morning it allowed me to upgrade to anything.
Here's to hoping that it really is the 22nd!
Oh, and anyone want an ATT Nexus One?

I spoke with Tmobile customer support over a billing question and asked about the note edge and when they should be released. He said it should be available for pre-order on October 24th and will be available on November 3rd or the 4th. I asked about price but said we only would know when pre-order will be available.

I went to tmobile and samsung online chat and they both didn't know.
But i have heard nov 4th as the date before.
Also I was on another post and it had links to screen protectors that had release dates or nov 15 to 17th.
So it all point for a for sure release of the Note Edge in Nov 2014.
I do know i will preorder it as soon as i get the email to do so.
I'm going to best buy tomorrow since I'll have some time then and I'll check if they got a demo phone.

I truly can't see it costing that much.
The iPhone 6 plus 128gb is only $950
So I couldn't see the edge being much more then that.
I really think it should be $800 to $850 that would leave the note 4 $100 cheaper. Which sounds about right.
Verizon CS told me note 4 will be $699.

dont say bull**** like that to scare people!
the USA carriers have "ordered" Note Edge from samsung, that' why it' on their website.
NoteEdge is on display and you can play with it on selected BestBuy, if there is no plan for Edge in usa, it wouldnt be displaying on Best Buy.

Yep.
Idk where everyone is getting these facts.
It's 100% coming to the USA.
I also highly doubt it will be $1,200.
More like $850 to $950.
Now limited stock I believe. I can see them selling out fact and needing a month between resupply.
But that's pretty much it.

The VZW rep also said they get notified every 30 days of new devices. I am wondering what and if I will use the curved part of screen or just save the 700 bucks and stay with my note 2 which runs nice , but geeks have to be happy with their electronics lol.
The first Samsung Galaxy Note Edge release date is now confirmed for late October with a specific Galaxy Note Edge release date now confirmed for October 23rd.
Last month, Samsung hosted an Unpacked event in Berlin, Germany where it announced a slew of new products including two new Galaxy Note models dubbed Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge. The Galaxy Note 4 will be the true successor to last year’s Galaxy Note 3 and it will go on sale with a number of high-powered features starting in mid-October. The Galaxy Note Edge release date had, up until today, been non-existent with vague information pointing to a possible release after the Galaxy Note 4.
(GottaBeMobile)
Was just at my local TMO and was test driving the Edge. They have no official date but said the same thing "Most likely after the Note 4 release".
While asking someone working in a tmobile store, he said that the phone will cost around $1200, which was followed up by his manager saying that it translate to a bit more than $50 a month. Seriously hope that the price premium is not that high...

Finally some good news about the note edge. Been waiting for this kind of news since the announcement during their live stream
That's very good.
Only 10days off from the said Nov 4th release.
In that case tmobile should start taking preorders Nov 1st. That would be 2 weeks before launch. I believe they did the same amount of time with the note 4.
Now if we could get a price that would be nice. Either way im going to do my best to get it day one.
Lucky you guys!
My only option is looking like one of those from ebay. I am not sure if the Exynos version is the right one?
Just spent £650 on the Note 4...
u guys think that amazon or ebay will sell unlocked note edge units from t-mobile to the middle east? im wondering if it will be cheaper there.

I know ebay will.
If people buy them and pay in full they can get the unlock code that same day.
I did that with my note 3. I got it from the tmobile store and paid in full and i was able to ask for the unlock code online.
So i bet you will see them on ebay a week after release for $100 to $200 more then tmobile site plus shipping.
I doubt amazon will have any. I don't see any third party sites having them, best buy, radio shack, etc... There have been reports if only 1 more llion devices to be released due to strict protype details and this is basically a marketing scheme. Now I can't wait. I want the N4 bad, but I'm liking the NEdge.
I also don't see many carriers having them in store either. Looks more like a preorder thing. Unless they do an Apple and only release at stores for the hype and line build.
Snap crackle and pop it lol......

I have no clue. I dont jump on my side. I was going to use my EIP credit to get the phone and then sell my note 3 on ebay.
My girls line has JUMP! When i last talk to Tmobile they said that you must have paid at lest 50% of your phone off. They will take your old phone and give you 50% of the priced of the phone when you brought it. and that would be credited towards your new phone.
NOw that is for a normal trade. I dont know who it would work for Pre-orders tho.
If you got a tmobile account just get online and do an online chat and ask about using jump on a preorder phone. Dont tell them up front about the note edge or they will tell you they dont have any information on it.
I did a chat with tmobile a few minutes ago about preordering the note edge and they just said they dont have any information but to watch the page as it will be updated soon.

I'm interested in the Note Edge as well but I'm really hoping T-Mobile will have pre-ordering online.
Also, I'm kind of scared about how some people who have it in other regions are experiencing lag. The Note 4 has been receiving decent reviews and nobody has been mentioning any lag so since the Note Edge is basically a Note 4 with an edge screen, you would think the performance would be about the same.

Hope That's true I spoke to them yesterday for a half hour , and just got off the phone , I asked for retention so could get to talk to someone who really knows what there talking about not some parrot reading off of a computer screen , which is what I got yesterday , I hammered the question about 5 times about being able to pre order , even went as far as saying I know someone who pre ordered , (which was a little white lie to see what he would say) and he insisted that there was not not and never will be a preorder on that phone , seeing as how the will be on store shelves in 8 days not sure what help pre ordering or how much faster you would get your hands on the phone sooner then 8 days , I really hope you are correct and I was totally misled , guess we'll see Monday ........:good:

That's very good.
Only 10days off from the said Nov 4th release.
In that case tmobile should start taking preorders Nov 1st. That would be 2 weeks before launch. I believe they did the same amount of time with the note 4.
Now if we could get a price that would be nice. Either way im going to do my best to get it day one.

I believe the price is going to be in the 900 $ range ..plus tax , screen protector and case , this will probably be the most expensive phone sold the general public ever , I believe your going to pay aroung 1,000 when all is said and done , hope I'm wrong but that's what my research is telling me...

Yea I got the price range its said to be 850 to $870 plus tax.. Its not the highest I paid for a phone tho lol.
I brought a sony p990 which cost about $1100 some years ago.
And I already order me a screen protector and silicone case. Should be here right before the phone. The cases were $2 each and screen protector $4.
Edit.
Also some have said tmobile will start preorder on the 10th but who knows, all we know is it will be released the 14th
I also hope Tmobile does online preorders because I don't want to go from store to store seeing if they have any in stock and taking the chance that they may already be sold out by the time I get to each store.
Countdown!!!
Three more days to pre-order this bad boy. Can't wait. Going with T-Mobile $870 model. Ouch!!! Expensive but did you see AT&T price??? $945....Super OUCH!!! But....have to get it. Looking forward to see what DEVS get involved with this phone!!!! See you all soon!

I'm interested in the Note Edge as well but I'm really hoping T-Mobile will have pre-ordering online.
Also, I'm kind of scared about how some people who have it in other regions are experiencing lag.

I must say my Edge seems way more smoother than my Note 4. Obviously Edge has the Exynos processor, and Note 4 has Snapdragon. My main concern right now is high RAM usage, I only have around 350MB free ram. Hope Samsung does something to improve this. The good news is that, I haven't had any issues of the device heating up at all so far which is great!
I just dropped by a local corporate store and they had no info on pre orders.
I even went to att since I read somewhere that on the 7th they would have a demo phone. They didn't have one. I was told that 11-17 is the release date.

The BB $200 gift card scam

For weeks I have been trying to take advantage of the BB 200. gift card offer for Sprint N4 white. checking the web site day and night every day, calling my local store NEVER in stock and "Sold out online" Offer ended last night, this morning for the first time my local store now has them in stock. What a scam.
I thought the $200.00 BB thing was for pre orders only....

NO because you could also use the credit towards buying an S5 as well.
I remember seeing and or reading that this offer was good on pre-orders on the note 4 which had a release day of 10/17 so that made the offer invalid after that. I heard of people using it towards an S5, i have no idea why but hey to each their own. I was also told that when my phone came in that they would only hold my pre order for a day.
They had the offer under "Weekly Specials" Oct26-Nov.1 for Note4 and S5
Could have purchased the s5 and returned within the 14 day period for note 4

Finally yesterday a bb 70 miles north had them in Stock. Hauled ass and bought one with a $200 trade in for an old LG Optimus m. Funny thing, when I got there the "consutants" couldn't find them. Chewed my nails for about an hour. Ended up being $165 out the door.
Had no problem with my trade in and 200 towards my note 4. All best buys in my are have had them all week.
They completely screwed me out of my $200 even on a pre-order. I had spoken with a rep who suggested I have the pre-order shipped to home to avoid the out of stock store issues (like she knew in advance it was going to happen). When I got my Note 4, I went to my local Worstbuy and they told me that it had to be picked up at the store. When I asked to see that in writing, the manager stuttered and walked away to send a message back through another associate that he couldn't honor it. When I went to another store the next day, I was told that the program was changed to the trade in had to be the most recent phone on that line. I wasn't giving up my Note 3, so he tried a few different things but couldn't override the system. He told me to just call Worstbuy back office and they will take care of it. After days of unanswered calls and ridiculous wait times, I sent a few emails. They each took 48 hours to answer, with no resolution yet. I'm waiting for the nonsense they will try to spew out next. This was the last time I pre-order anything through them, and quite possibly buy anything from them.
Well it worked for me yesterday. I've been checking the stock every day since they came out. Both white and black were in stock briefly last weekend but i couldn't make it to the store. The black one came back in stock Friday and I went up first thing Saturday and purchased it. I traded in my old nexus 4g for it. I haven't had that active on my account for years. I also got the $50 phone freedom giftcard. So i paid $49.99 plus tax for my new note 4.

Go ahead rub salt in my wound, still have no Note4
Any sweet deals please post
My husband and I just both got note 4's yesterday and we both got the 200.00 trade in and neither phone was pre-ordered..
Having been in this boat myself recently, anyone feeling wronged by this promo should check out this thread on the official Best Buy forum: http://forums.bestbuy.com/t5/Cell-P...00-gift-card-for-trade-in/td-p/853517/page/91
A moderator there, Allan-BBY, has been working relentlessly (weekdays only) to help straighten out customer issues by directly emailing managers of problematic stores. He has said many, many times that Best Buy corporate has decided it WILL honor all preorders regardless of when the device comes in. I have not heard anything about excluding ones placed after 10/17. Also, just tonight a regular employee from Best Buy mobile posted, confirming the system was still giving them the option to honor the promo.
If you're having problems, I highly suggest you make an account there and post a reply or directly message Allan-BBY so he can straighten things out with stores who are confused.

So your saying Sunday Nov.2 after the promo ended BB honored the 200. gift card deal?
I also thought it was a scam. I called about 6 best buys a day and they all said they were still filling in pre-orders. Finally on Oct 31, I just went to the store thinking I would just get the S5 for now and then exchange it for a note 4 when they finally have it in stock within the 14 day period. Long and behold I walked in and asked if they had any note 4s in stock for Sprint and he said yes. I first thought they were joking and was a little surprised. I ended up upgrading 2 of our phones and got very lucky on getting them. I had my old EVO and an old MY Touch HTC one phone to trade in.
The sales rep started looking into the system to make sure my trade in phones were eligible and he said that EVO was eligible and the HTC one was not. Then I questioned him saying that your add says any working smart phone then he showed me something in fine print that said some BS that not all phones may be eligible. I was a little shocked so I asked him what system are they checking to see if the phones are eligible? He told me to go to bestbuy.com/tradein. So while I waited I started to look and long and behold that My touch HTC one was listed online so I showed it to him. He ended up saying he didn't see it because it was on the bottom of the list and they ended up giving me the rebate for both of the phones. I later find out from another sell rep that he didn't realize the phone was an HTC so he ended up looking for just "My touch" rather than "HTC My Touch". Lesson learned to make sure to look up the phone online before you go to the store.
crazy situation
Actually i was able to preorder my note 4 and I traded my Old s3. But some thing happened. Sprint didn't put their system that I got note 4. So even though i got my not 4 on easy pay but again there's no record which shows that I have installment on this phone. That means i got my note 4 for only 30 dollars, but i should also receive $200 from sumsung. So now I'm thinking not to claim Samsung's money because they might call sprint and ask them about this phone. What do you guys think?

That is what the rep told us to do. They were sold out of the 4.

Samsung dropped the ball

The US release of the Galaxy Note Edge is a complete mess. No one seems to know when the phone is due to come out. Not sure where those press releases came from last week but they seem to be wrong. I just came from an AT&T store and they have no clue when they will be getting the phone. I called every Besy Buy in Milwaukee and they don't have a clue either. I have Verizon and it hasn't even passed to FCC for Verizon yet. What is the deal with the phone? If they are having issues manufacturing the phone then just say so and push the date back. They announced the phone back in September and there is just as much uncertainty now as there was two months ago. Looks like I'm just gonna stick with the Note 4 and then just wait for the HTC M9 to come out next year.

The 14th has been the date so we will find out this friday.
The people at these stores are told to not tell customers when new phones are coming out because they want you to buy a phone right then and there so that after you do buy it you can be mad at yourself for not waiting and then spend more money on buying another new phone.
I was talking to a TMO rep last week about the 14th date and she went out of her way to make sure I understood she was saying she had no confirmation of the phone being released on the 14th even after she slipped and told me that she wasnt sure if they were doing pre-orders.
Tmobile's website also lists the 14th as a date.
https://explore.t-mobile.com/samsung-galaxy-note-edge
There is a chance that some of the reps you were talking to did not know about the new phone coming out and really were telling you the truth, but more than likely they're just lying because thats what they're instructed to do.

That may be the case at some stores but when the Note 4 was coming out Best Buy was able to say it would be in on 10/17. I bought the Droid Turbo two weeks ago and I was in the Verizon store a few days before it was released and they even pulled out their store display model and let me hold it. And not to mention you could pre-order the Note 4 on all 4 major US carriers once they announced the release date. I still keep seeing websites saying it'll be out on the 14th on all the major US carriers and I find that hard to believe especially when the Verizon model never passed thru FCC.

To tell the truth i have heard nothing about Verizon and the Note edge it has all been Tmobile and ATT. There has been small word on the Sprint one but not much.
Its possible that they dont have a confirmed date yet. There was a user that posted a screen shot of them saying something about the 14th or 17th.
All i know is there is no fussin until Friday the 14th lol....
But really we just gotta wait and see.
I believe samsung didnt push this phone as much as they should ,but samsung does suck at getting the word out there before the device is out.
We have a few more days and we will see what happens.
In the Sprint newsroom section it does say the 14th. However, I did chat with a Sprint rep earlier and they acted like they didn't know about it.
i emailed 2 bestbuy about pre-order att note edge.
1 bestbuy told me "it not out yet".
the other bestbuy said "we dont sell note edge, try bestbuy.com "
To tell the truth, I think that none of the basic people know anything.
With the leak image from tmobile. I bet that was only sent to the head people as the head stores.
While everyone else just works there and looks up everything on the system. Which the system hasnt updated yet since the phones havent been scan in.
I do remember doing an online chat before they confirmed the 14th date, and no one could give me anything. After they confirm the date the online chat people where able to tell me that it came out the 14th but nothing more
This is just my guess tho. But i have seen this happen before with other items. No one knows anything because they havent gotten that email in there in box. While the main people know but basically cant say much.
But we will see what happens on the 14th. I am hopping to be able to just walk into the corporate store at 10am Friday and pick up a white one, but i dont know. All i know is ill be refreshing the page daily as i do now, and just waiting. There isnt anything else we can do about this.
My tmo rep told me they are not doing preorder add it is unknown how many the does were getting out when they were coming in. They did say release is 14th and to call the evening before to see if they have them in stock.
