- Free VR
- $30 vouchers
- 2 for 1 wireless chargers
- Free SD cards
Seen a number of deals as above for US customers, not a lot for those of us outside the US! Some retailers offered the VR for free but not all.
I know this isn't much but I'm from Canada and my pre-order includes the Gear VR, and a 128gb microsd. I'm used to not getting anything.
don't forget the 6 game bundle from Oculus
Just the VR in The Netherlands. And it seems to look like it that those who got the phone thru a carrier here and didn't pay the full 800 Euro (it comes free with a 2-year subscription of about 50 Euro a month) are not getting the VR. Samsung declined my girlfriends promotion registration !
I bought it carrier free for the full amount and just got confirmation my VR will arrive within 8 weeks.
In UK you get the Gear VR with it, either ourright (which I did), or through some of the operators. VR was delivered together with the phone on 8/Mar (I pre-ordered).
That part is good, and by itself no issues.
however, it is a shame that the US is getting more freebies.
Here in Puerto Rico we got The new Samsung OnLive Bluetooth Headphones, Gear VR and $50 Oculus cupon on the spot for people that reserved the S7 or S7 Edge. Didn't have to wait for freebies Nice package if you ask me.
O2 customers get free Jabra sport wireless headphones 14 days later
In Turkey, we don't get anything except the phone and shamelessly they charge those people who preordered the vr for 30$. What a lame company, The S7 Edge costs about 1100 USD here, total ripoff.
In iraq i bought my lovely s7 edge with 719$ without any extra.. any way i have VR too and so far happy?
Here in thailand
Free wireless charger
2000 baht off (60 us dollars)

Did you sent the right invoice and filled in the right information like where you bought it etc.
Oh and I got 100GB onedrive for free (Temporary)
The Free Gear VR deal was worldwide..anyone had access to it if they wanted to, one way or another. Sometimes via operators.
However, is the wireless charger deal for the new, angled charger ? Because otherwise it doesn't look like a good deal to me.
I'll trade the VR gear for your root!

Yes Jef, she filled in the form in the exact same matter as me, the reason in the email from Samsung was:
"we need an invoice that proofs that you paid the phone in advance in full", of course her invoice doesn't say that cause she got it with a subscription.
So this leads me to believe the previous statement I made: 'only VR if you paid full'. Another option is that they made a mistake and treated her in the same matter as me and didn't see she prolonged her subscription

Yes, thats true. The Indian SGT (GSM unlocked) which launched on 10th Nov, 2010 at 38,000 ($833) INR is now retailing at 28,000 INR ($614) on flipkart dot com.
I bought on launch at 38k from the same retailer. Never expected to fall the price this soon (barely 2 months). Feeling cheated. Planning to write to Samsung India about my feelings.
yes am getting it for 27k~ inr even in the samsung showrooms...was thinking to buy it..are u using the tab as a primary device or a secondary one ??
ruenigma,
In India the telcos did not offer any voice/data bundle plan with Galaxy TAB?
For me over at Singapore, I bought my Galaxy TAB for SG$248 (US$193) with the signed-up SG$56 (US$43.60)
(SG$44.10 (US$34.35) in actual under my corporate plan) voice/12GB data plan for 2 years contract.
Beside that, I also getting 1 Samsung bluetooth headset and 1 Sansdisk 16GB Class 4 Micro-SD card for free.
I even enjoy the 100st customer to win a pair of tickets for free fashion show and Korean pop star Seven mini live concert.
@Dare{D}evil using it as a secondary. Can't pocket it, so can't be primary. I carry a handset just for voice and text. Tab is used exclusively for data needs at home and in office. Never regretted the device itself, it is just the timing that I messed with.
@NewForce In India they do have data plans bundled with SGT but they don't carrier lock it for the same. Means you can wall out of a plan anytime (you may have to pay a marginal penalty).
Samsung India provided BT, carrying case and a car charger free of cost after I purchased the device. The online retailer also shipped the device with a 2GB sdcard and another BT.

I bought it for Rs.36500, feel extremely cheated because it's been over a month now but no sign of carry case, bt and charger. Samsung says it's out of stock and they will send it whenever. You are planning to write to them, what good that's gonna do?
Same here in the Philippines
SInce Indian Rupee and Philippine Peso are virtually 1:1, I have a sense of the scale you are talking about.
At launch, it cost around 35k to 40k here. Now, bnew and carrier unlocked can be had for as low as 27k, with weeks-old 2nd hand units going for 25k with screen protector and nice cases.
I got mine with a bundled data plan, and although the price is plunging, im still enjoying it very much (best portable media and movie player in the market tofay) so no worries
Even I feel bad that I bought it too soon. After I got it, Samsung bundled the case, charger & mapmyindia navigator.
Samsung has sent me a leather case, a bluetooth headset & the car charger later.
I still don't have the mapmyindia software.
I guess early adopters have negatives too. I guess they dropped the prices after the iPad was launched much cheaper than expected.
If you got 2gb sd card bundled with SGT, just check that card for mapmyindia installation file. This card comes with mapmyindia bundled

I'll be getting this phone with in the next month, but I was curious what outlets you guys are aware of that are selling the phone.
I saw it on amazon 2 weeks ago for $900.00. Today its around $700, but I wanted to know if you guys knew of anywhere with even better deals.
It's a long shot I know, but I figure it is worth asking. Thanks
I would like to know this too. Seems the 'Hands Down Cheapest Place to Buy' thread is dead
Every day I scour XDA, Google, Ebay, etc looking for prices. I'm in Canada. With taxes,etc I think I'm looking at about $800 more or less (can anyone confirm that?). I think after Christmas I may go for this price but ideally I'm looking to pay about $700 more or less total. Then I'm worried about screen issues or a dead pixel which happened with the Nexus One I ordered from the States so I don't really want to ship it back overseas if this happens which it may judging by other threads...
So I'm looking for it to come down about another $100 but dont know if/when this will happen.
And ideally would like it to be released in Canada or even the US so I don't have to get it shipped which may lower that cost? But don't know if or when that will happen.
Then there is the fear that Samsung will discontinue it and I'll never get one or the prices will shoot up or something?
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/5504/samsung-galaxy-note--16gb--sim-free-unlocked-
About $670 without VAT. From what I've seen in other threads, it doesn't apply if you're outside the EU. I think that might take the cake as the cheapest?
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...RDX6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322262246&sr=8-1
Also Amazon has a couple different sellers with the SGN in stock. Around low 700-750s. Most of these are in the US which would be better in case of a defect.

I ordered mine from HandTec when they had it listed briefly for £418.99 plus £14.99 shipping, for a total of £433.98, (which PayPal converted to $697.46), but HandTec has put the price back to £434.90 + shipping since I ordered. May still be the best price, however.
OTOH, Amazon now has a Prime 2-day shipping seller for $739. I'd pay the extra $40 or so bucks to have Amazon peace of mind if I had seen a price that good 4 days ago.

The new issue with handtec is that fedex will charge you 30 $ 1-2weeks after u get the phone
So because I'm in Canada I'm looking at around $800
But if I was in the US or UK I'd be looking at around $700

Hands Down Cheapest...
Well I still think Clove.co.uk is the best place to buy at this time simply because they're including a matching Samsung OEM Flip Case free! Also, being a commodity and having the price fluxuate by the hour (literally) keep checking MobileCityOnline.com too!
These two places at one point during the day can hit anywhere from $699 - $729 at the absolute lowest. But keep in mind Clove.co.uk INCLUDES the free Samsung OEM Flip Case. For some that's a deal maker plus most other outlets are selling this same flip case for $65 on average.
That is why if you catch Clove on the lower end of price fluxuation it's such a good deal. You won't go wrong choosing either one of these retailers that's the good news. The only possible bad news is at what price you'll end up paying for your Note.
Anyway you do it - your going to LOVE THIS PHABLET!
Abso - ****ing - lutly love it... quote me on that too.

Charge $30 for what? FedEx hasn't charged me anything in the States for ordering from Handtec.
By far cheapest place to buy this phone is from India.
You get this phone for about US$ 615-620 range which includes official Samsung flip cover in the package.
If there is significant interest from people in states or UK, some of you guys can get in touch with some ebay.in sellers with good reputation and request him for shipping quote and get him to create a special thread for you guys.
Last time around with SGS2 couple of my mates from US requested a seller from ebay india this way and got him to create a private listing for them and got their SGS2.
Or if you guys trust someone from India around here in these forums, get him to purchase phones and paypal the funds to him.
Note is significantly cheaper here than anywhere else from what I have seen online.

that is a very expensive contract.
Especially taking into account the low amount of minutes and data you get.
Also paying £200 for the phone on top of the £720 is a big slap in the face...
return it and get a 'bigger' contract for less and also only pay a max. of £50 for handset

Darn! Can only select New Zealand or Australia for shipping.
Waiting, waiting, waiting for the price to come down a bit as I'm willing to pay a bit over $700 here in Canada total with shipping, tax, etc. but not willing to pay a over $800!! Just seems like too much...
I had a dream last night I was using my GNote & loving it... maybe the universe is trying to tell me to just order the darn thing
I also called Best Buy and pretty much confirmed this as well

We all know that the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge won't be released before April 10 in the US (just like in other parts of the world). What we don't know is when the two new Samsung flagship smartphones will be available to pre-order Stateside, since there's been no official word on the matter. But a Reddit user may have revealed precious details about this.
Reportedly, Best Buy will accept pre-orders for the S6 and S6 edge on March 27. Moreover, another Reddit user (who claims to be a Samsung employee) says that customers who pre-order an S6 or S6 edge for Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint should receive a free wireless charging pad that will normally cost $49.99.
Obviously, for now we can't confirm these details. However, since Samsung is already accepting pre-orders for the S6 and S6 edge in some markets, we're expecting the same thing to happen soon in the US, too.
Off contract prices for the cheapest Galaxy S6 variant (32 GB) could start at $699.99, while the S6 edge 32 GB might cost $799.99. So, who's looking forward to buying Samsung's new Galaxies?
AT&T pre-orders are live.

Yup exactly why Im getting it from Best Buy!
any chance of getting a verizon one from best buy on the 27th? or at least the free wireless pad
Just as a heads up, looks like the 128GB Edge (possible the standard as well, not sure) for AT&T is web-only. This has two implications:
1. It means picking it up in-store might not happen. And if it does, it'll probably be in limited stores.
2. It means, sooner or later, they might not offer that particular SKU at all, and it'll be the first one to go. I forget which device it was that I owned, but they had a "web-only" variant of it that was actually unobtainable after only a few months and I ended up having to get an "alternate" when I got a replacement.
Also, for anyone curious, looks like the asshats at AT&T had to put their stupid branding on the back of the device.

Call up and check if your local shop is doing it. It's funny I beat the news outlets to the news, and still no reporting of it has been made.
As part of the preorder deal, Best Buy forces you to purchase a $50 gift card to use towards the phone when you pick it up. Not a big deal.

I did the same thing. This will be my first non HTC phone. Due to current reviews I'm going with this because of the camera as I use it a lot.
Well, I was lucky enough to purchase a s7 edge (935F) with a veryy unusual defect of the display or glass.
At first I was hoping that is one of the edge features, but soon enough my hopes were crushed with reality... Have anyone met such ugly thing?

I purchased it from a US ebay seller and mailed to Russia through a forwarding company, so it will be huge pain in the ass to return it to the seller and will lose money on mailing it back to the US.
That's a defect. May I ask you why you got an American version? I assume they sell the S7 Edge in Russia?

Yeah that's defenitely a defect, I investigated a little and found that it is rare but usual occasion for all edge models.
I understand your frustration, but this is actually an international version I purchased from a US seller http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...301908930098?ssPageName=ADME:X:RRIRTB:US:3160
It was 700 USD on march 31 and I also received 10% cashback on my card (ebay + my bank special promotion) so final price for me was 655 USD, including 25 USD for mail forwarding to Russia (direct shipping from the seller was not available).
The price in offical Samsung store for S7edge in Russia is 900 USD. You can find it for 800 USD in some small online shops.
As you can see my soultion was much better in terms of money spending, but now I wll have to pay for my attempt to save some bucks

The promo is valid for GS8 or GS8 Plus orders placed between 3/30/2017 and 4/20/2017. Regardless of which bundle you do, you will have to submit proof of purchase to Samsung and wait for the promo items to show up. That could take a few weeks. Documents from the valid purchase period must be submitted by May 14th.
The only thing Samsung offered me in the UK with the upgrade programme was insurance
I wonder if the deal is region exclusive... It's definitely in the US & Canada for sure, but no idea on other regions.
last year was the same , then people start write to samsung and they give gear vr in uk as well if I remeber correctly
Last year you had a choice of the Gear S2 smartwatch or the Gear VR. There was a very limited number of the watches and I was one of the lucky ones to get one. I already had a Gear VR. I sold the watch for $175.00. There was also a little known promotion of a free Samsung 32gb SD card that I took advantage of.

Documents from the valid purchase period must be submitted by May 14th.

My local costco is doing a pre-order bonus of the Gear VR, Gear remote, and Level U Pro wireless earbuds when you preorder galaxy s8 or s8+. If you want the earbuds aswell check them out.

Was that only for Verizon or can you get that same deal with the other carriers too? I did take a look at their site, and while I do know that you have to pre-order in the warehouse, I only saw Verizon's logo on the ad for it...
I already pre-ordered my phone at Best Buy, so if there's a better deal at Costco, maybe I could put an order there?

As far as I can tell from calling samsung, no GearVR is offered in the UK... That sucks!

I believe it is Verizon only unfortunately. Sams club offers the Gear VR + Controller and a $150 cash card to sams. Id rather buy it from there instead of the ~$44 headset from costco.

Yup the UK and Europe is obviously not that important to Samsung. I called them and was basically told that the Samsung marketing department made a strategic decision to push this only to the States. So now you know where we stand with that and probably with updates going forward

Yep, it is. I confirmed that when I went to Costco earlier today. :/ I don't have a Sam's club near me, so that's not even an option for me.
I wish such deals exist in the netherlands, you get nothing!

You have to submit it on Samsung Promotions AFTER you receive your device. Not 100% sure if you have to pay for the extra before you submit the rebate, or if it's an option when you try to redeem the promo and you'd pay then.
I have pre ordered mine with Vodafone UK, they didn't offer anything other than getting the phone a few days early.

It's disappointing that Samsung or the carriers offer any incentive really to pre-order. I would have like the charging stand/pad as a free option, or a large capacity high speed sd card for the phone!!

Last year in Greece samsung gave vr headset with preorder. This year give nothing!! Nice sammy!!
