Samsung galaxy s3 i9300 ready for pickup in store in nyc!

Just picked mine up in white. Store has brand new sealed units in stock. Mine was unbranded and unlocked! I paid $850 but no one has these available anywhere else in New York City (or even available online!)
Amazing phone I'm a happy camper!
The store I bought from: New Wave Inc, its on Fifth Avenue and 32nd Street. 212 679 0600.

850? You got shafted. Oh wait, you have one post so far? I see what you did there

What size internal storage?

You created an account 6 years ago to spam at this moment? That's some planning.

Wow! My first post and I get knocked down!
@Gromet Internal is 16GB.
@AnyMal Don't think I did, I really looked around couldn't find anyone else who had them in stock. Finally found these guys on Craigslist and they were a helpful bunch.
@eksasol LOL. Created account long time ago to download something. This was my first post as I was really happy to finally have the S3 and was trying to help other members who might be interested in getting one for themselves.

Cool story. Chianman, hook it up!!! Lol

Including taxes, right??

I shall buy mine off contract on AT&T for $600 with LTE and insurance because $900 is steep just to have it unbranded

Thats even more expensive that europe!

dkotoric, can this one be used on Verizon's network? I know you're on ATT, but I believe VZW is GSM as well. I could be wrong, of course.

Nobody knows but why the panic?
Its not gonna sell out on the first day, people thought this with the nexus 7 pre-order.
.... Yet all orders from the first WEEK were in the 1st wave of dispatches.

So were pre-orders for the Nexus 7 started at midnight?

I would think there to be a tremendous difference in demand between a lame ass 7" tab and a quad core 2gb mobile phone with the latest hardware priced insanely cheaper domestically than elsewhere. Insanely cheaper, period.
Never know but I don't expect the 16gb Nexus 4 to last 5min.

Well there ya go. Part of me didn't want to post it as to steer people away from bringing down the site, but meh, I'll be optimistic that Google has enough stock + demand isn't THATT high.

Why?
Only people who follow these tech sites know about the Nexus 4 here in the UK, no tv, radio, newspaper articles have been shown.
We also get stock from a totally different country to US orders.
For the mast majority, only people who go into an O2 store will know about it, and their stock differs from the playstore stock.

What does spam f5 mean and what kind of info should you have ready?
I have already bought stuff from the Google Play store so they have all my details. I figured I would just sign in well before midnight and when the Nexus 4 became available I would select it to buy.
Has anyone bought like a device on the first day available and would like to share what happened?

Assuming you're serious, spamming F5 means quickly and repeatedly pressing the F5 key on the keyboard, to constantly refresh the webpage in hopes of it letting you order the phone

I have never heard of that before even though I have been around computers since the 70's. Thanks for the clarification.

I thinking the UK is going to be the easier place to get a midnight order done. There have been no ads or whatever as someone in this thread has already said. Also, here in the UK the majority of people buy off contract phones so this one isn't going to be that different. But on the flipside in the US there is a massive LTE network that you wont be able to access and that will cut the amount down quite a bit. I'm guessing they will sell a lot but I don't see it selling out...... unless they start running ads after they open the site to orders.

I wouldn't bet or hold your breath on a midnight release, but who knows anything can happen.

[Q] good place to sell Samsung Smart PC Pro?

Hello all,
So long story short I'm trying to sell my Samsung Smart PC Pro 700t and want to know a good place to sell it. Swappa does not support this device, I've tried to sell things on ebay before (including this one) but both times I've gotten a buyer who is in another country and can't pay through normal means (i.e. paypall on ebay). There is also no interest for this on my local Kijiji So does anyone know a good place online to sell this?

better than not trying at all right?
Otherwise I would say eBay but it appears you have been put off by it, although I think there is a way to prevent international bidders.

Imported C6906 US Warranty Service

Hello All,
After seeing how bloated some of the carrier phones are, plus longer update cycles, I decided to get an imported C6906 (Expecting delivery this week). I decided to ignore the Z1s. Do you guys know what if, any warranty service I could seek thru Sony in North America ? This phone isn't even sold in the USA so it's not like they've replacements laying around. I'm just very concerned they will turn me away If I have an issue. I currently have TMO but may need to switch to Att so the 6906 LTE bands made sense for me. Has anyone had to go thru this?
Also, I've seen mention of poor quality screens on some units. This is extremely concerning. Should I be worried about this?
I'm debating refusing delivery of the device so I appreciate any feedback.

LoL....good luck on sending your phone out for weeks to get it repair buddy. I'm getting Tmobile Z1S its because of the warranty.

I have other phones so a couple of weeks doesn't bother me that much to be honest. I'd just like to know if they will provide service.

I don't think they will. You will have to go thru from who ever you got it like expansys or negri.

I ended up rejecting the delivery of the device from UPS after not being able to get a clear answer from the folks at the local Sony store.
So all things considered, it seems that Sony has held out on the LTE flaghships (Z and now Z1) in order to avoid competing with T-Mobile.
Z1s it is I guess.

T-Mobile S8/S8+ Waiting Room!

Since we have a room for Verizon and AT&T let's start one for us on T-Mobile.
Pre-Ordered S8+ in Arctic Silver Shipping 4/20-4/21 but my friend at T-Mobile said they have to list that date by law. It will be out earlier at least on Magenta!

Got invited to unpacked2017, got the Royal treatment and got to meet DJ Koh! Have the S8+ with upgraded promo (adds wireless Harmon headphones and another 256gb SD card) on preorder! My buddy who won the promotion got a free S7, vr gear, and all kinds of other cool stuff, free hotel, over 3k in cash for taxes and spending money, oh and 2 free S8+ on the way! Had one hell of a great time in NYC.

What's the deal with the Gear VR promo? I know all of the major carriers are offering it, but I wasn't clear when I placed my order how it works. Does T-Mobile ship it with the phone, or do we have to send away for it after we get the phone?

Send away for it. But it can all be done online. I've never had an issue in the past.

I preordered mine on the Samsung website but when. Asked for carrier I clicked TMobile. Is that the same thing as going to the TMobile store or will that be the international edition?

Is that a good or bad thing? I honestly haven't had a custom ROM or anything in that nature since the G1. So rooting and custom ROM's I consider to be new to me, in that sense would I be able to do that on this phone because I just read that it has its bootloader locked?

God I've been checking the "check status of order" on my tmobile app endlessly hoping they ship it sooner than the 20th haha, impatiently waiting for the s8+ in black

I'm sure they have a fort built with all the boxed up phones or they are using them as chairs and tables in the shipping department ?
