Another T Mobile hint. Recently T Mobile posted their new promotion of a one year subscription of Netflix with the purchase of a Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge on their registration page, and in the fine print it said that it must be purchased starting March 27th, giving us the pre order date for at least T Mobile!
This serves as further evidence that we might actually get in store models at BestBuy on the 27th!
SideNote: It also is on the Samsung promotion page for Netflix.
I hope the GS6 edge will be available to pre order from T-Mobile in GOLD because if it is, it's mine

Thread closed as a thread already exits for this here.
I have had a samsung galaxy note 3 for about 2 years and it has worn down a lot. Ive been wanting to get an s7 edge, but I've been reading and hearing good things about the galaxy s8. Should I wait the extra 5 or 6 months for the s8, or should I go ahead and get the s7 edge?
go for s7 edge...as a owner of s7e i don't jump to new devices right away until 2-3 months of release until the premium price is reduced, availability of drvs for it and root

Hi,
I really like the S7 Edge however if you can afford to wait I'd wait for the S8, it's just a few months away and when it's released you'll even get a nice price cut on the S7 Edge in case you find it to be a better investment.
If however, you need the phone right now, then go for the S7 Edge, you won't regret your acquisition it's an amazing phone.
All the best,
~Lord

There is pro and cons.
If you buy S7 Edge you are coming to a prepped table with a lot of roms, root and stuff.
You would know what is working and what is not working.
If you buy S8 you have to wait for the release of different stuff, if you are a root guy.
Will be a waiting game for the s8 it may come out later than expected.
I would get the s7e and like other members have said wait a few months after the s8 is released then maybe sell your s7e and get the s8

I took the S7 Edge in the Note 7 recall, then heard rumor about a discount on the purchase of the S8's when they launched due to all of the trouble concerning the Note 7 recall... Has anyone heard anything following up on this rumor?

I hope so. I did the same thing.
Is the Note 8 not S8 and I think we would have to buy through Samsung. I think we will have to wait and see
Hello fellow Canadians ,
Let's get it started , I already have preorder my gs8+ in black from Samsung website. So let's start the discussions on it.
Edit:
As on June 2, only exynos version can be rooted. So do your self a favor and get that model instead

Technically speaking Samsung Canada contracts out their sales to two different companies. One runs the Samsung Experience stores that have a physical presence in certain malls. Online sales are handed off to Tech Data Canada which is based in Mississauga Ontario.
Pre ordered mine from Telus. Was going to do samsung too until I saw that they are not getting the timely updates one would expect. Unlocked s7/edge is still on Marshmallow. Yuk! Anyway super stoked. Telus might start shipping for as early as the 17th. Fingers crossed! [emoji4]

I won't ever order an unlocked phone again. The Galaxy S7 Edge unlocked phone (G935U) still doesn't have nougat. It just got March security updates and the last ones were December. On top of that, the people that preordered the Gear S3 from Samsung Canada, had to wait over a month from those who ordered from Best Buy.

I wish I could pre-order from my carrier too but I don't want to change my plan and Telus doesn't allow you to just outright pre-order purchase the phone. After my last experience with Tech Data over the Note7 pre-order, I don't feel at all assured that I made the right choice. I remember getting my Note 7 after the release date, even though I pre-ordered it practically within the same hour the window opened!
Don't forget to register for the free gear vr! You have to fill out this form for Samsung in order to receive the gift. Fill it out and when you get your phone, register it and Samsung will send your Gear VR. This should be interesting to see who actually gets it.

I am still deciding on which one to buy s8 or s8 plus.
Do you think s8+ is going to be too big and awkward to use?
BTW I am using S7 edge and it's perfect

Im a little surprised and more than a little annoyed those idiots at samsung are not making the silver and gold versions available at launch here.
God they are stupid and shortsighted. After the huge note 7 fail one would think they would want to sell as many s8's as possible. Which would mean making all colours available.
I pre ordered anyway but will swap it for a sliver or gold exynos version like i did with the note 7 and s7 edge.
Not off to a great start samsung.

Yeah i checked the koodo website...it says silver but i have s strong feeling its the gray one...i may just call them to see.
Im going to swap it for a exynos anyway once my local seller has them so i guess it doesnt really matter what colour i get but its still a stupid move on Samsungs part

That's going suck if it's not silver. I'm actually curious if exynos will still have the edge in battery life like it did with the sd820. I'm hoping we canadians don't screwed. If not then I know which note8 version im going be getting later this year lol

anyone know what the model # is for the version Samsung will sell direct? Trying to confirm frequency support for Public Mobile LTE
Will the version sold direct by Samsung have frequency support like the SM-G955F?
So there is no way we can get coral blue color version in Canada?
I guess orchid grey is as close as we can get to blue

Considering that the Note FE is more or less the same as the Note 7 with a smaller battery and updated OS. Is there really a good reason to create a new sub thread in XDA. I will wait until the price of the Note FE has dropped a bit and is available from my favourite importers before I get it. I don't trust eBay for electronics.

This is the first time I have bought a device on Ebay, ive avoided it till now as im nit overly trusting either lol. But in this case it was my only option and I didnt want to wait it out as prices may actually go up only 400k units and once they are gone the prices for re sellers will get jacked way up. Supply and demand...
Considering that Samsung may release the Note FE globally with the expection of the US. I think I will wait rather than risk it with eBay. I have purchase a few things from eBay and they both arrived perfectly. Brand new as stated on the sellers page. But then again I choose to a Premium Seller to purchase those items from. So I guess if you purchase the Note FE from a premium seller you would be fine.
