[Update 25/10/11] Release date NOW UNCERTAIN for Galaxy Note!

Further update: date now uncertain, may be early November, may slip back towards initial mid-November date.
FFS! 495 Gbp to euro + taxes = +/- 700€ in my country... thats almost 2x the minimum wage / salary.
Too damn expensive.
I have to agree. And we all know that there'll be an even better phone
released, less than a year later, and we'll all want that one too...
£478.99 exc VAT on 31st October at Handtech
If this phone follows the trend, there should be a big price drop in 3 - 4 months. I can wait.
This phone will be awesome. I have tablets, but I still do most of my news reading on my current 4" screen LG G2X phone. I don't know why Samsung had to market this for women. Anyways, the 1.4ghz dual core and battery capacity is probably one of the best in the whole phone industry right now.
Com'on US release...
I don't really understand why you looking for prize drops. In 4 month there is something else you want and you have to wait again Do you ever buy phones?
lol, that's why I still have an HD2 right now. In 4 months, there might be an even bigger phone than the note.

release now looking like mid November (hopefully)
Clove Uk has revised their release date to "to be confirmed" from stock expected about November 1. Clove "hopes" to ship mid November. They are waiting for Samsung to tell them when they will have the product delivered to their warehouse. It is very possible phone will be delayed so it can ship with Ice Cream on board (rumor.)
The price of a smartphone (Galaxy SII) bought outright (unlocked, expensive than phone price on contract) which includes tax and gst here in Australia is roughly 425 GBP.
At 425 GBP, the SGNote is NOT CHEAP, but I would buy it in a heartbeat, but not a penny more. The baseline for smartphone outright price has been 400-450GBP in Australia for sometime, I think its unfair to exceed that.

This ebay store will sell you a pre-order.
I'm so torn between the Note and the Nexus.
At the moment I've preordered the Nexus but I dont know... I would realy like the bigger screen and the sd-card slot on the Note.
Might end up with both...
EDIT:
And now I've both preordered. Think I'll go for the Note. I just hope that it will get ICS fast.
EDIT2:
Leaning towards getting both now =) So my wife get a shiny new phone to (but the sgs2 she have now is not to bad either)
Gonna try them both out and then I'll take the one i like most and my wife get the reject

LOL i am in the same boat as you
The Nexus is nice but I'm majorly swayed by the screen size on the Note and the stylus input.
I think most people looking at both nexus and note, Had both pre-ordered but cancelled the nexus. Only NFC and ICS missing on the note. I dont need NFC for three to five years. (might be payment method world wide). but who knows? ICS, i still think we will see that on the note sometime next year...
Brilliant short clip showing how good the Note is for video editing and annotation. This is one awesome tablet phone.

Ooh, thanks for that - nice!

Price Drop?

Has the Note 10.1 price dropped everywhere, because I was just on Amazon and the 16gb is now 450 and the 32gb is 500.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=galaxy+note+10.1
Looks like their Galaxy Tab 2 10.1s are also a little cheaper at 329 now.
Is this everywhere? Just Amazon? Temporary?
It's because I finally bought one the other day. Every time I buy something, it goes on sale the next week or so. At least I got mine at Costco, so it was about the same price after tax.

Noticed the price drop too. I bought mine when it came out for 550€ and now it is 350€. (16GB 3G version) I never saw such a huge price drop on a tablet/smartphone I owned before.
Where can i get it for 350 €!?!? (For my wife )

The unveiling of the note 8 seems to have had a positive affect for consumers. Most major retailers dropped their price on the note 10.1 late last week, right before MWC started in Barcelona. The note 8 was unveiled by Samsung at MWC over the weekend. This week, they should be unveiling a successor to the SGIII and a new 10-inch tab (no successor to the note 10.1 is expected this year; CES 2014 is the likely venue where any upgrade to the note 10.1 would be revealed).

Really? There is no expected successor this year for the note 10.1? I was holding out getting one because I thought they would release a new one pretty soon. Where did you see that there wouldn't be a successor anytime soon?
I just got the 32gb note from bhphotovideo for $449. they are selling it for the same price as the 16gb
Got my 50 dollar price match from Best Buy yesterday

Is the Nexus 10 a good buy brand new at $350.00?

Wal-Mart in my area has the Nexus 10 reduced to $350.00. I'm thinking about another tablet because I haven't purchased one in a while and want to upgrade. I was just curious if any of you think thats a good buy? I have never even played with a Nexus 10 is the only reason I ask.
I recently bought brand new, 32gb on ebay for $300. Still one of the best tablets available.

Hi,
Nexus 10 is still an amazing tablet, in the Best Tablets of 2013 by MKBHD he said that he's favorite is still Nexus 10! Here's the link: Top 5 Tablets (Early 2014) Collab!: http://youtu.be/Rrm4isCQDkQ.
I don't have any complaints about my tablet, it performs really well, also has an stunning screen. For 300$ (eBay) or 350$ (in your area) I think it's a great deal . Also, maybe it's worth getting on Wal-Mart there, because if it's what I understood, you will get it the time you buy, so no waiting for shipping or paying for shipping.

I bought a 12.2 note pro today

A 64 Gb wifi only re manufactured for $520 today on groupon. The deal will be gone monday
Excellent price! I lucked out and bought a 64 GB Note Pro refurbished via eBay for $550 a few months back.
Just picked up the att LTE version (32gb) refurb for $380, I'm excited to see what can be done.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/171630973285
I just "pre-ordered" P905 since the cheapest shop here doesn't have available stocks (it probably didn't sell well here). I hope to get it in a week. Hopefully my accessories (keyboard, micro sdxc and ethernet) arrive early.
I have bought 64gb wifi about a month ago for £324 from PC World UK
I picked my Verizon 32gb version for $293.50. I just rooted this. So excited to start using this.
Those prices make my wallet ache... I paid €820 for mine.. ($869, £588) (A year ago, but alas.)
850€ Here lol
Edit: About a year ago

I paid $850 for my SM-P905 about a year ago and i'm pleased it has retained its value very well. Prices from reputable sellers start at about $700. Only a $150 deprecation after being a year old, is good news to my wallet. Especially when i decide to sell it and upgrade.
I'm very tempted to pick up one of these, I currently have a note 10.1 (2012 edition) and was planning on getting the 2014 edition but then I found out about this note pro 12.2. The extra screen size is certainly appealing, what's everyone's opinion on this tablet, is it worth getting, I understand there's a 2015 edition in the works but then again I doubt I could afford the price of that if and when it's released where as the current 12.2 costs hardly anymore than what the 10.1 2014 edition costs that I was looking at purchasing initially.

BJ's
I got my wifi 64GB 12.2 tablet for $430... and the matching keyboard cover for 39.99 ($190 off the tablet, $60 off the keyboard) at the local BJ's. I was not in the market, but this was too good to pass...
Should I get one now or wait?
Do you think there will be a 2015 version of the note pro?
I just bought mine for $410 on Monday. I'm blown away by how fantastic this device is. I decided to buy it as a 'laptop replacement' which I was somewhat cautious to do given my so-so experience with Android tablets in the past (I love Android on phones but the tablet experience hasn't been great). In any case, it's fantastic.

I'm wondering the same thing Luis, but I don't think I'm going to wait. I actually bought the AT&T LTE variant used off of eBay last month and loved the device. Unfortunately, it wasn't in the supposed "Like New" condition the seller claimed and the battery life was pretty horrid. So that one's on the way back to the seller for a refund and I'm planning to buy one brand new from AT&T using the Next plan. Hoping Lollipop will arrive stateside sooner rather than later.
It's really sad seeing all of my Note Pro accessories on a shelf with no Note Pro to use them on... :crying:
I just bought a new 64GB WiFi version for USD $500.00.
After getting the LG G Pad 7 for a buck with my G3, I'm spoiled on data enabled tablets. I don't think I'll ever be able to settle for a wifi tablet again.
I've changed my old iPad 1 32GB WiFi Only with Note pro 12.2 LTE giving only 100€ to prev owner! :good:
It's a fantastic tablet!
And today is updated to Lollipop via ota!!

If there is, it will cost over $800. So it's up to you if you want to spend that much more money to have the latest tech.

The Nexus 9 birthday!

it's now nov 3 the day when it was released.
happy birthday nexus 9 :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :victory: :victory: :highfive: :laugh: :victory: :highfive:
I wonder if that is why HTC offered them at a reduced price today? I got a 32gb in white for $287. I've had my eye on the Nexus 9 since it came out, but couldn't justify the price until now.
