Not really of much use here, as the TMo Note will be using a Snapdragon CPU rather than an Exynos, making it more like the AT&T I717 Note than the N7000.

If I am correct, T-Mobile US released the HTC HD2 with some months of delay but the biggest bonus of that wait to customers was that they added more ram + 16gb sd card compared to the international version.
Now if their version of the Note is similar to the At&T, then I can't understand their strategy behind this release. I'm curious to see the official specs for their version of the Note.
T-mobile is fast!

Given that the Note II is likely to be announced and released in a couple of months, I don't see any point in releasing this model at all!

Not necessarily . Now with rumors ( I know) stating anywhere from a late August to late October release for Note 2, which I tend to believe based on 1 yr release trends of cell phone sequals, it seems that way for us tech freaks, but for the average consumer who doesn't care about xda, cpus, or rooting, they will love the OG note on T-Mobile.
Just my opinion

Nope.
Eww, and an S3 chip? Sounds like they're just getting rid of AT&T's stock.
We are destined to use the freaking EDGE. I'm fine with the 30kb/s download(I get around 256 kbs/s connection) You still can use internet, check email, read news, etc. But when it comes to Google navigation or searching for a location in Google maps, 256 drives me nuts....

Saw this:
$900.00!
Yesterday, we told you that US Cellular and Samsung India are accepting pre-orders for the Galaxy Note 2 and today were made public the release dates of Note 2 for several European countries. It seems like Europe will get the upcoming Samsung sensation phone first and you should try to find more info at your local dealers to find out if you can pre-order it.
Samsung says that it will start shipping the Note 2 ‘phablet’ starting with September 27 and the first country that will get it, is Germany. However, almost all European countries will receive the device in weeks 40 and 41 of 2012. It will be released with the latest Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean firmware and it comes in two different colors, Titan Gray and Marble White. You should check web sites of your local dealers and see if they are accepting pre-orders for Note 2.
The release dates for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 in Europe are these:
Germany – 27th of September.
Italy – 28th of September.
Netherlands, France and UK – October 1st and 2nd.
All other countries in the EU should get the device around the same dates. The device will pack a 5.5 inch 720p HD Super AMOLED display, an 8MP camera, 1.6 Exynos quad-core CPU, Premium Suite for Note, S Pen stylus, Corning Gorilla Glass 2 and the Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean OS.
The pricing of this smartphone-tablet device starts from 700 Euro, but it might differ from country to country. Also, Samsung said that they expect to sell at least twenty million units of the Note 2, but I personally think that that number is a little out of reach seeing that numerous phone manufacturers are getting ready to launch new devices in Q4 2012.
The Titanium Grey and Marble White are the available colors, just like the ones used for the Samsung Galaxy S3. If you like big screen devices and you take into consideration the specs of Note 2, then this device is a must-buy and you shouldn’t hesitate to purchase it, even if the pricing is around 700 Euro or $900. Tell us in comments that you think about Samsung’s new Note 2 device and whether you think that it will become an instant success or not.

price is high, GPU is old....
hope HTC will release a phablet soon (im buying only htc, samsung and sony. samsung is expensive and sony wont release a phablet..).
~ 2 more weeks and my suffering will be over (on a Nokia N97 temporary cuz my original note died on me )
The reason the price is so high is because it includes the VAT (value added tax)
For those outside Europe, the price should be about $150 lower.

oh..I always thought it was a "I Gotta Have It FIRST" tax.
According to the US Cellular pre-order, it's $299.99 contract and $799.99 off-contract.

Well i preordered mine on friday in sweden and they told me they will post it to me @ 26th to have it on the release day of 27th! this month!!
Next week will be epic once again. Ive missed my Note so much and have been in some ugly phones shoes for too long...

810$ in Denmark is the cheapest I've found so far.

did you buy the international version ?
do you have the URL of the store ?
In India, the retailers are estimating it in the first week of October. Let's see though.
European retailers have links you have in stock soon.
If you can tell me I would appreciate some.
Cheapest I've found is at http://www.kogan.com/au/buy/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-grey-unlocked/

unfortunately not, even the Euro versions with LTE (right now there are at least 5 different versions, not all have LTE and the ones that do have LTE only work with a limited number of networks, most Euro versions will work with ATT 3G and 2G)
Thank you very much for the link to the store if you do not know any German website send outside Europe as it seems to be the first country to receive the note 2.

oh yes october 1st for UK! Gunna have to buy this on release day!
Thanks for posting release dates crazeco
i was reading some reviews on this cus im getting no doubt. im one that doesnt like to wait. if theres a way to get it done quicker,im down... anyhow,i went to the kogan website and it seems that you can purchse the international version on the 15th or somthing. of course full price,
my question is,willl the international version work in the states off our towers? i saw another thing to that i didnt understand. the international version comes with quad core. ours is only duel core. wtf
Who says our version is dual core? I havent been able to find out anything about an australian release and if the original notes australian launch is anything to go by we wont have it till march next year but it will be identical to the international note.

I agree with you mate. It has always been the same as the international version. I'm just holding back to see how the release dates come out in Australia. Clearly they can't release right now or end of September otherwise they will kill their own S3 4G version.
I'm expecting official release to be somewhere from end of October or mid November.

It's 440 pounds (+ VAT for the EU), shipping first week of October. My phone should arrive by my birthday.
Using Note from the EU work on AT&T USA
Looking to buy international, but not sure if it will work on AT&T USA and have 4G service working on it. I don't have LTE in my area so I don't care about that.
Good news...op,did clove withdraw your money with the pre order?

The model that is on preorder at Clove, the n7100, does NOT have any lte capability. 3G only.
The n7105 model with lte comes out a bit later.
Super expensive, 670€, 100 more than euro prices of holland, germany or austria.
Greedy clove as always, not buying there.
i just purchased it -VAT as it's shipping to AU
480GBP = 746AUD inc shipping

Who's selling it cheaper? If you are not in the UK, you don't pay VAT so its 551€ + shipping. I paid £464 including shipping to NZ.
Now that the wait is on, I'm more concerned with CM10 support

On the handtec website....it says it has 4G LTE but it is the N7100 model as well:
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.ph...16gb--n7100--sim-free-unlocked--marble-white-
I'm a bit confused, I thought the new Note 2 has LTE support, which is something new!???
They must be wrong.
For what it's worth, PhoneArena said it has LTE support as well.
Not saying they're right, but who knows
I got an email back from clove this morning stating that the veraion they are stocking is 3g and not lte.
"As 4G / LTE has only begun trials in the UK very recently the version of the Note 2 we are receiving next week will not be LTE compatible. EE will probably have a locked down LTE version of the Note 2 at some point in the future, hopefully this year, which means a SIM free version may become available. If it does and we have access to it then we will place it for sale on the website

I pre-ordered mine from clove, but ended up actually buying one (well, ordering and paying for one) from , because of some issues paying for it on the website. Handtec have got the same dates listed, so it's just a case of waiting for it to arrive now.
Swyped from my finger to your face, on my Samsung Galaxy Note.
...Specifically Toronto GTA area people, where are you buying the NOTE 2? I well remembered last year when I purchased the NOTE from Handtec, I had to pay $100+ in duites.:crying: Trying to avoid that this time around.
Any sources?
I was thinking of it, but then I read that the international version isn't compatible with the LTE band on my carrier, Bell.

I will be getting one, was very close to ordering from handtec, but then i read ur comment, I think Coptech will be getting it next week, CanadaGsm doesnt have any pricing yet, expansys canada doesnt have it in stock yet, I not sure what will happen if I order from ebay.com, probably will be screwed with duties and taxes. I thought cell phones were duty free items, but I guess not.
I ordered mine from Clove in th UK.
Since Winnipeg sucks and we're never going to get LTE, I'm fine with the 3G only version.

Bell Canada is selling the original note for $729.95, which is only $10 less than the Note 2 at Expansys... I can't see the Note 2 selling for much less after launch. At best $699, but I think $750 is more realistic. So.... maybe expansys (or newegg) is the best bet for those who don't want to wait at least another month for the retail launch.
When I ordered the Galaxy Beam from Expansys uk last time, they cancelled my order and told me to order from the ca site. Never happened before. Eventually got it at Clove and probably will do again for the Note 2.
Doesn't matter to me if it there's no LTE as I wasn't going to put the sim in anyway.
I ordered the note 2 from Expansys on Wednesday and received it yesterday. Waited less than 24 hours.
