WTB 32GB Samsung Galaxy S II - I'm in the US

Tried pre-ordering from Handtec and after giving them a copy of my driver's license, copies of business cards for my shipping address, and other info as requested... two weeks after they'd taken and charged my credit card they wanted MORE. I got frustrated and said no, so they cancelled my order.
But I STILL want a 32GB version, which I have NO release date for, and a vendor that is reasonable about taking orders from a US customer. Any ON TOPIC info would be appreciated.

Well I have read somewhere that 32gb version will come a lot later than 16gb version so for me 16gb version packed with 64gb sdcard = win. Imo not worth waiting and money.

32gb is max for SDHC though. I don't think we have any confirmation that SDXC-cards will work, seems like it was only rumors.

There is no 64 GB SDHC Card.
AS for the 32 GB SGS2, i guess you may have to wait for quite a while mate. Seeing as Samsung has not yet released the Standard 16GB NON NFC Super Amoled Plus+ Exynos 1.2 Ghz Processor Specced Phone in all the markets, it will take time for the variants to hit the shelves.
I dont understand what Samsung is playing at though. By the time all the variants are out, it may well be August/September. And according to Eldar Murtazin, thats when the iPhone 5 Competitor, the SGS3 is supposed to come out. What Gives?!

Any word on a release date for the 32GB version? Tempted to order the 16GB version like so many others have, but for an extra $100(?), I'd rather have the 32GB.

GSMNation suggests mid-May.

I got this email from GSMNation:
"I'm writing with an update on the 32GB version of the phone. It has been indefinitely delayed by Samsung, so we can't say when it will be available. I'm guessing that's because they are still trying to fulfill their 3 million pre orders for the 16GB one. We are expecting it to be launched near the end of June now, meaning at least another month before it becomes available. But since there's no official word about its release from Samsung, can't say that for sure. If you want, we can still change your order and ship out the Galaxy S2 in 16GB. Please let us know how you want us to proceed."

BTW, is the S2's internal memory a SDcard or a flash memory chip?

I have been told by the folks in the Samsung shop here in Taiwan said the incumbent telco will get an exclusive (in Taiwan) on the 32GB and should be arriving around the last week in July. I also couldn't read, but did see the email from Chunghwa telecom marketing stating same and laying out prices for the various contracts.They also said it would be exynos.

16gb internal and 32gb card and then use a USB flash and the phone as a host if you need more

It isn't known one way or another if they'll work. Just a lot of speculation. Hardware wise, SDHC and SDXC have the same interface, and going by wikipedia Linux may have no trouble reading both without any massaging.
Of course they could also totally not work, but it's worth keeping in mind that what is "official" isn't always true - Android phones used to be sold only officially supporting up to 16Gb SD cards.

i currently use a 32gb kingston microsdhc that i bought from microdirect. works absolutely perfectly.
word of advice, dont buy any cards from ebay, from my own personal experience 90% of those for sale are fakes from china and dont actually work, or are 2gbs rebranded to 32gb

using a sandisk 32GB - working fine.

I have been using Sandisk 32gb class4 card from the last 2 months which was bought from eBay India. I don't feel anything wrong with that so far. Even registered in sandisk official website for a 5 year on site warranty.
But the purchase depends on the choice.

I am using an IMATION branded class 10 32GB micro-SD.
Tested speed : Write 10MB/s READ 20MB/s

agree with being careful when buying from e bay I bought a 32gb card before and it used to crash whenever I copied more than 2-3gb onto it

any cheap models for class 10 with 64 GB?

32 gb Note?

UPDATE: Seller just got back to me saying he made a mistake in posting. He has SGS2 and not SGN. So there is no 32gb Note.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Folks,
I've seen one post on eBay (here), they are saying they have 32 gb version of SGN. He also mentioned that its not unlocked?
Do you think its legit? Is the 32gb version already out, somehow? And how is it that's its locked?
Any one has some info about this?
Thank you,

Strange auction since it's the wrong picture and no actual information about the phone, just some generic product descriptions for both the Note and SGII,
I'd not bid until I get some answers first. Such as does he have the phone in stock, if so why is there not a correct picture of the phone or the package? Where did the phone came from, Asia, Europe? Is there a receipt with it? Does the phone have 32GB internal storage or is it come with 16GB micro sd card?
There are no 32GB Note released in europe yet, so it might come from Asia if the phone is legit.
I'd not bid on this personally, it is much cheaper to get a 16GB note and 32GB micro sd card, unless that is not enough storage for you.

That's bogus.!!!! Have you seen how much the bidding is up to? Those bidders can buy a SGS2 with lots of accessories and still have change for that amount.

As far as I know, there is no 32gb version of the SGS2 as well.

Oh boy!
Those bidder are bidding for I don't know what? :|

If I were you I wouldn't even try it. The description is clearly copied and pasted from galaxy SII which doesn't match the offer. I wouldn't risk it even if that was real deal because it could be a experimental version.
I have yet to see 32GB version of the note, besides I found buying 64GB sandisk micro sdxc card to be cheaper memory storage expansion than actually buying 32GB version of the note compared to 16GB one.
Isn't 80 GB enough for android phone anymore?

The issue is that ebay's Stock descriptions for the Galaxy Note List it as a 32GB phone. I have seen more then a few listing's where the description apologized for the mix up on ebay's specs and states the phone was the 16GB variety.

Some idiot just spent $705.00 on this GS2 listed as a Galaxy Note 32GB.

32 GB version of Note 2....?!?

Hello,
Friends, does anyone has any clue/idea as to how soon will the 32 GB version of Note 2 be launched/available...?
Thanks.

Me too looking forward to it...
Any info on this please report....

Me three! Can get from Mobicity/Clove/Hantec but would prefer a 32/64gb LTE (a bonus) carrier version to come to Aus! Waiting is driving me crazy....want this phone! 4G definitely not essential for me but (at the very least) 32gb is

Me four
The LTE in the N7150 probably wouldn't work with the ass-backwards 4g infrastructure here anyway, but I really want a grey 64gb. I've only found 16GB variants here in Norway.

You'll have to wait a bit, just like S3 it was harder to find when it just got released... I bought the 16GB with a 64GB microsd problem solved

How long did the SIII take to get 32GB after launch? To me 16GB is just not enough internal storage - I'm not android competent (yet) and I'd like easy access to more storage for Apps (happy to shove music/films etc on 64GB card)

Doesn't help those who want 64gb + 64gb = 128gb of storage, like I do. I hope it won't take as long for the 64gb Galaxy Note II to be released, as it will for the Galaxy S III (why is this still not released!?!?).

32GB Note 2 is available in Dubai for 2450 Dhs ($662 USD). Just ordered one and it's coming tonight, will keep you posted.
EDIT: Spoke too soon.. they're "out of stock" on the 32GB, got the 16GB instead+ 64GB MicroSD

@ gabster21,
could you kindly clarify....
1. Is the 32GB "out of stock" because a 32GB for sale is already launched and a lot of people ordered it...? (hence waiting for new stock of 32GB)
or
2. Is it "out of stock" because it is not available as of now...?!? (waiting for 32GB to be launched)
thanks.

I was told I could get the 32gb version for about 60 $ extra than the 16gb, of course I said yes. The person from the shop then called me back saying that they were sold out.
He said they would receive more on Sunday however I'm not sure I really believe him and it's possible they never had it in the first place. 64gb sd card makes up for it though

[Q] N9005 16GB usable space?

Missus is thinking of getting a new Note 3. Problem is, in Hong Kong the official stock only has 16GB versions.
How much of that 16GB will go to the OS? You think it will be similar to the 16GB S4, so you only get about 9GB of usable space?
Also, another issue we've found. She presently has a Note 1. On the Note 1 it seems that she only has around 2GB for apps (internal space or something), and we have found this very restrictive. Will this be the same issue with the Note 3?
Thanks in advance.

We only are able to get 32gb in the northeastern USA. Who in the heck knows where anybody can get a 64gb version

The 2GB app restriction is only found on the Note 1, already gone since Note 2 and Note 3.
As for your 16GB Note 3 question, i think nobody can answer you as of now because Hong Kong is the only country getting 16GB variant, all other countries get minimum of 32GB.

Yep, it seems Taiwan and HK are the only countries who have the honour of the 16GB version. Price for them is set at around US$775.

Honour? We feel sad for them for getting the 16GB variant, nobody want a 16GB variant on a flagship device, its so yesterday and we are glad that 90% get 32GB.
