Free Epic with 2 year activate OR upgrade @ Best Buy - Epic 4G General

www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+Epic...int)/1168955.p?skuId=1168955&id=1218230592078
pretty awesome deal, also if you're a premier member call them they will waive activation and give you credits

This is what they do to get rid of any stock units. Eol for Epic production it seems.

someone was just talking about it's eol for the epic.. so what's the replacement phone? g2x or something? because as far as i know, im going back to htc.. only because of the dev community, DEF NOT FOR 3D. anyone have a clue??

lol you also get a free lady gaga cd with a 2 year activation

lol figures

ya clearly screw lady gaga but for free? Im all about that. I already have it but def getting it for a family member since we are about to have gingerbread etc seems like the phones about to hit its sweet spot honestly.

Figures, and I just upgraded my phone to an Epic but payed $90 though Amazon. Wonder if I am able to return it and get my upgrade credit back to buy it though Bestbuy. Oddly enough, I went to bestbuy first to buy it to see if they would price match, but was a no go.

Well, that's definitely a kick in the no-nos. Paid $230 7 months ago and now it's free. smdh.

Bought mine back in january, its ok, my next purchase will be a tablet, so ill get all the new feature with that.

I suppose its possible. Looks like they are featuring an Android phone from each of the big 3. AT&T HTC Inspire "4G", free also. Do you think its at end of life? Just asking because I have no idea what it usually sells for. Also, Verizon Fascinate is free.

It's far from end of life. It will stay being their best keyboard phone as the galaxy 2 wont have one. I mean it really depends what you want out of your phone but for free...this hardware will still be considered very solid and able to perform for the next couple years

I agree. What I should have opened with is "I suppose anything is possible". Its what I really meant.
Oh, and thanks for your post. One daughter has a Hero and another has a Pixi and they both are in need of a new phone. My son and I have Epics and we love them. For me though, I have found Swype so easy I hardly ever open my keyboard.

It's the nature of consumer electronics these days; fast depreciation. It's entire possible that this phone could go Eol in a few months. It is no longer the newest and fastest device on the block.
I wonder if there will be an "Epic 2", or at least a Galaxy S2 with a keyboard. Samsung seems to be releasing a new Galaxy S every year. I imagine we will have more information around late summer.

Crazy Deal! I say you go for the deal that gives you the free Lady Gaga CD.

I'm so pissed that I bought this phone a week ago. Now I have to waste $35 for a gay ass restocking fee. I'm never upgrading my phone through Sprint store again. I'll just do it online now since it doesn't have this gay fee.

Evo 3d
$199
on contract!!!

I think my father's actually planning on getting an Epic in the next week or two. He is impressed with mine and frustrated beyond belief with his old blackberry. His contract is up so at zero cost I expect him to be happy with this. And honestly, a 1ghz phone that will be running GB in the near future w/ a 4in screen and a 5-row keyboard. There's very little that compares.

nice deal, i'll pick one up

If they do, it will be missing 4G (amongst other things) until Samsung upgrades it themselves. But I think you made a good move.
I hope you enjoy the Epic more than the Evo. Im hanging onto my Evo until i get the Epic in hand and have a day or two to play with it. If all goes as expected then the Evo will be my girlfriends phone
Good choice . I have the vibrant and I love it. Good to see another sgs phone released ...

Wel luckily I was within my 3 days of buying my evo (bought it July 30th) at best buy. So I returned it and went ahead and preordered the epic too.
So I'll just have to pay the 50+ tax difference
Can't wait til Tuesday !
Congrats on making the switch! The EVO really never did it for me. Don't like the phones accent color, Sense UI, and the layout of the capacitive buttons.
The Epic shall be EPIC!!!

This is exactly what I'm doing, except I'm just getting the Epic regardless. My girl really wants the EVO so, good for me d'.'d
Speaking off best buy basically said I was only like the 5th preorder
Man is samsung or sprint screwing this launch up? I get worried because if it flops will that mean little Dev support (custom roms) or samsung official support like software updates?
Stupid doublepost.
"The Decision"​
When did you decide?
I think I decided this morning. I mean, I decided this morning I went day to day. I wake up one morning, it's this device. I wake up another morning, it's this other device. And it's a process that I felt it was I may feel like this is the best opportunity for me or not the best opportunity for me.
But this morning I woke up, had a great conversation with myself. Once I had that conversation, I think I was set. ​
The answer to the question everybody wants to know: What's your decision?
In this fall, this is very tough, in this fall I'm going to take my talents to Samsung and get the EPIC.​
Hahaha. Wonder if there will be a letter from the Company owner of the "other device" about his decision.... LOL!

Sprint is launching the phone, not Samsung. There is only so much that Samsung can do because they have 1 phone with 4 different names and 4 different sets of features on 4 carriers.
The commercials I saw advertised the "Galaxy S" phone. Unless you're a bit of an electronics/technology fan, then you won't put 2+3 together to realize that the Epic/Vibrant/Captivate/Fascinate are variants of the Galaxy S.
Besides that, certain other carriers like Verizon have done a decent job at branding their smartphone line.
I pulled out my Vibrant last week to show it to someone and they asked me if it was a Droid phone. Two choices:
1. Answer "no" and take 3 minutes to explain that 'droid' is a brand name and what android is and where my phone fits in.
2. Answer "yes" and avoid boring that person with a bunch of information they won't remember anyway.
Even though this phone is nicer than the EVO, I don't see it selling very big. Sprint customers are generally with Sprint because they are cheaper than Verizon and AT&T. The $250 price and +$10 "4G" fee for having the phone will keep people away.... especially since the Captivate and Vibrant are available on AT&T and T-mobile for $50 less up front, and ~$10 less per month (in t-mobile's case).
Also, the EVO just came out about a month ago or so. Its good that Sprint is getting some nice handsets, but they are going to price themselves out of their niche if they aren't careful. I expect the Epic to drop to $199 within 2 weeks of release.... I think they are just trying to squeeze early adopters
Don't they have to wait 30 days before dropping the price? Otherwise all the "early adopters" will become 2-week adopters as they en-masse return the phone and buy it again at the lower price.

Got some hands on time today with Vibrant 4G

I went by the local into mobile store (which is now a direct outlet for corp store for T mobile.) and a rep I know showed me the Samsung 4g demo they just got in today. I really like the silver color in the back and the it seems to have a slightly heavier feel to it. Feels better in my hand than my Vibrant does. The demo was fast and very smooth and could not detect any lag. It was showing 4 bars of H and was very very fast downloading from market. Seemed even smoother than the custom roms I have (and have now) have used. I was a little impressed. I still do not believe it is worth an upgrade from my Vibrant but it does have me thinking. Anyone else have any comments or experience with the new 4G?
I got a friend who's a T-mobile rep and one who's a T-Mobile store manager (both at the same store) and I got to play with it a little while. It was pretty nice. It definately feels a little snappier than any of the roms I've used on my Vibrant. I'm pretty stoked about picking mine up tomorrow morning.
And for all the haters pondering as to why I would by a V4G when I already had a Vibrant? I sold my Vibrant for $250, I'm paying $200 for the V4G = no money out of my pocket. $50 extra FTW.

thats cool man... I honestly feel this phone is a decent upgrade untill the summer dual core phones drop. I also am picking one up as soon as my t-mobile opens tomorrow. I'm giving the vibrant to my smartphone virgin girlfriend who couldnt be happier to get my vibrant with bionix V and the purple theme. in turn I get a new SGS4G by starting a line for her and in 5 months im elegable for an upgrade on my line... hello dual core phone.
Yeah i got some hands on time with one a few days ago. It was nice but not impressive. The S2 will be the game changer for me not this one but it still is a nice phone, just only a tad better than the Vibrant

Did you upgrade in order to get the discounted price? If so imo that was a horrible decision with the dual core phones on the horizon and the Vibrant 4G just isn't worth the upgrade with only a few benefits over the original.
Shhhh! Don't say that.
It's cause the screen is nice, obviously...

Important note on internal app storage for the Galaxy 4g...Internal space for apps is about 210mb(1gb total for internal memory this time and the rest is the Rom, etc)...I barley put on any apps and it keeps giving me the warning that my memory is full and I need to uninstall apps even though it says I have 50mb free ...I already moved every app I can the the SD card but missing the old Vibrant's internal storage already...Not going to be so easy to just flash new ROM's either. On a positive note, the phone is fairly responsive compared to Bionix running at 1.4ghz. Of course you can tell the differance, but it doesn't feel as slow as I thought it would
He has a friend that should be fired for beating the system and causing the prices of phones to continue to go up. He should be ashamed of himself.

I picked mine up this morning and I have so say that thusfar I am impressed. Does seem to be a bit more snappy than the original, and network speeds are definitely better. I have yet to be able to test the GPS as I picked it up and came straight to work.
A coworker of mine has the original we put them side by side and with him showing a 3G signal I was getting 3000+ on the download speed where as he was only getting 700. He is running the official Froyo update.

You can upgrade before the 2 year mark. I believe you are eligible for a full upgrade discount after 22 months. You are however eligible for discounts prior to that time but it will be at a smaller discount. Lets say at phone is $199 at full discount, then it will most likely be in the $300 - $350 range at one year. I hope that makes sense.
Also note the Vibrant 4G is selling for $149 on amazon right now. Don't tell anyone.
not really sure where to ask this since there isnt a V4G section up yet but has anyone tried rooting this thing yet?
Edit- Right as i went back into general i saw the V4G root thread...whoops! Please ignore.

I thought we were able to stick with our upgrades man I might end up doing the same thing too, I want the nexus and I think it be out late April beginning of may, if the phone gets past the timeline it will interfire with evo 3D most likely June (iPhone face off ha ha) so I'm hoping is sooner then later I love my evo but the nexus s is really good looking device a bit smaller, better screen and hummingbird will be good for another year or so

If you pre order the nexus s won't you get it as upgrade price... Since you can't really pre order unless you are eligible for an upgrade?
This way you can lock in the price of nexus s, and use the upgrade before they take it away?

This may be off topic, but I too fell into your situation and had to upgrade to my Evo before the April 1 deadline. I was able to jump in the best buy buyback program for free.
So this is what is spurring my question. When I look at what the retail price for phones on bb.com compared to sprint's retail prices, bestbuy is almost $100-200 more. (e.g. sprint Evo $450/ BB Evo $600) Has anyone tried to get them to pricematch sprint when buying a phone at retail price? If you go to bestbuy's pricematch policy the first FAQ is
"What is considered a local retail competitor? "
and the answer is ....
"A retail store located in the same market area as your local Best Buy store."
The reason I ask is this. On the same web page there is a link for a New York Price Match Class Action lawsuit about a similar situation where an individual bought a camera from Best Buy then found the same camera at a "local" camera retail shop for less and BB wouldn't price match it. And this individual one. (Reference the Decision and Order Document. The conclusion is on the bottom of page 31)
Note : There is more to the story, but this is what started the wheel turning in the lawsuit. I recommend reading that specific document thoroughly so you can see how scandalous retail can be.
I can understand not matching contract prices, although in the past they have for me. But in this case we are talking "retail" price. I have up til August to get 50% for my Evo ($300) and I was thinking for future sake how i would attack the upgrade. I could either do an ETF (about $180) and lose my mobile #, but pay contract price ,or I could just cash in the Evo for the program and buy phone at retail.
Has anyone had any experience with this situation with BB?
To the original poster...if you feel this may derail your thread, just PM me and I will remove it. Thought maybe this may bring some light for purchasing your next phone.

1cent is TOO much. The Epic Sucks... I have the EVO and the base ROMs from Sprint are far superior than anything to date from Sprint/Samsung... I have tried almost every ROM for my wifes Epic and all she ever says is that one thing or another doesn't work and why can't she have the same software Sense or AOSP that I run on my EVO... I wish I knew the answer.... If Amazon sells out, I will probably give my wife my EVO (as I pre-ordered the EVO 3D) and sell hers for 1 penny. Hopefully I can sell it.
Wow...nothing but trolls on these forums nowadays...

I'm running Bonsai on my Epic. Everything works, I get a day of battery with 2 hours on screen time, never FCs, no problems at all. Maybe your girlfriend is an idiot. Would explain why shes dating you
I love Amazon, and if I ever need another Epic for a family member, I know where to go now.

Haha, I posted the BestBuy advertisment in an EVO 3D thread and I got trolled to no end.

Evo 149.99 for Upgrade now

I just seen it on Sprint's Website....
Wouldn't make much sense to charge $199 for both the Evo 3d and OG EVo
Agreed...
I know 2 people that were waiting for it to drop so they could upgrade...
Got mine last week @ best buy for 100
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Didn't know about Best Buy for $100 until today.
My wife got hers last week for $199, wouldn't you know, they lowered the price. I just got off the phone with Sprint and they credited my account the $50.
Of course, if they hadn't, I would have had her return it as "I didn't like it" under Sprints 30 Day guarantee and then gone to Best Buy. She doesn't need 3D and its easier to maintain 2 identical phones.
Best Buy's website has it at $49.99 when I just checked. My NS4G is going back along with the $100 going back in my wallet. I'm within my initial 30 days and this is my second NS4G and the radio still sucks. I didn't want to go with a yr old phone, but it performs great and just got the official GB update so it's still well supported by HTC and Sprint. White Evo 4G will be in my pocket tomorrow.
Saw it at sams today for $99.00
Sent from neither here... nor there.

LMAO..actually had to pause...go back..and double check my groggy eyes myself!
Just called to confirm (since my son wants a phone) and from what they said on the phone...I can add another EVO to my plan for the $50 bones as well. Obviously an additional $20/line fee and the GOT A HAVE IT $10 ale cart crap fee applies, but better than any other smart phone out there for the price! Going to Breast Buy tomorrow!
3D must be on the trucks to offload soon eh?

Lol I bet he will love the new phone. I was using a crappy clam shell bought this and never will go back. Lmao ya another good reason no more using dads phone.
Done Done and Done....
Went by the local BB this morning and picked one up for him @ $50 was in and out within 15 minutes. Told the guy..."No need to take any more of your time...I'll activate it myself". There were a couple phones having the activation and UPDATE done..
Activated and now rooted..good times.
Went to Sprint to check on my replacement of the replacement EVO (BAD screen) they replaced last Friday..no go and phone calls to customer service etc have yet to get me a NIB phone..will deal with that. Guess I was a little frustrated..on the way out I saw three couples looking at the EVO and proceeded to exclaim..."Might want to go across the street to BB and get yours for $50 instead". Probably should have just kept quiet, but felt better as two of the three followed me out the store.
Sweet how did u get it for fifty did u have to motor boat
