UK release and pre order - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When is the phone officially released and where are you pre ordering from?

I have only seen it through CPW and only on Vodafone to Pre-Order atm... Not to sure when its out here, most likely end of September or in October I would guess?.

How about expansys. They a genuine and offer the best price. I am in USA and ordered international samsung phones in the past.

Galaxy S III Pricing, Availability and Pre Order Thread

Figured I'd make this one stop thread for early adopters like myself wanting to get the device on launch date. Or even those who cant get it on launch date but to use as a future reference.
I'm in the US on ATT hoping to get it same day shipped on released.

Hspa+ bands on the international will most likely work on att right? But not lte?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Most likely so, as I use the I9100 with hspa+ and unlimited data for $15.
I personally don't mind not having lte, especially since nyc hspa gives me 4-6 down and 2 up unlimited.

My two places of choice are expansys uk and clove.co.uk. Either one of those two I'll be ordering mine from. I usually get overnight AM delivery with expansys coming to New York

I've pre-ordered mine from Expansys NZ.
For any other Kiwis around here:
Expansys
Mobicity
Two places I've found available for pre-order so far. Mobicity have a price, Expansys don't (yet). Although Mobicity will want payment up front.

For me personally it is also important to consider insurance. If I'm forking over 700 US$ I want to protect my investment
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Amazon has them but hardly ever at release date. MoCity usually have them but the price is normally more expensive from what I remembered. Clove normally had the best price.
But from my experience with clove and expansys, you have to pay upfront. But remember this for those in the USA, if you order from UK sites we don't pay vat and the total including shipping is cheaper than ordering from America.
With regards to insurance, never had a problem personally, but if I did samsung has warranty covering it.

I ordered by Galaxy Nexus through Handtec (handtec.co.uk) and had a good experience with them. If I do pull the trigger and order a GS3 then I will probably do it through them. Depending on price.
Expansys been taking pre orders for them.
Expansys UK
Expansys US
Negri Electronics
Carphone Warehouse
I always buy electronics from Negri. There probably the best customer service I've dealt with. It all comes down to personal preference with this type of stuff.

Yup it's gone.
Here is hoping that will come back later on today, with a shipping date due in the next 4-5 days... Fingers crossed..
The pre order links are back up on expansys for both white and blue colors as well as 16, 32 and 64 gb versions. I pre ordered all six as I am not sure which color or size is going to be available on release date.
Oh you don't have to pay upfront to pre order

this first release of S3 will only work on Bell, Rogers, Fido, Telus
I'll wait for the Tmo release, which is usually like the 3rd incarnation of the same phone every year
as AT&T and Verizon or Sprint usually gets the 2nd generation release of the same phone

International Note II shipping on Sept. 27. $900.00!

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...
Titanium Grey ... What else?
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.
regards
oh yes october 1st for UK! Gunna have to buy this on release day!
Thanks for posting release dates crazeco

[Q] Will we be able to preorder before 13th november?

Any idea's on this. I am gonna order it from Germany then get my cousin send it to me here in Denmark. Makes things a lot easier when you know the deal is sealed.
Are you sure it'll be released in germany the 13th? It took almost 2 months for the nexus 7 after the US release.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
It's getting a worldwide release on November 13th in countries like USA, UK, Canada, Spain, France, Germany, Japan and Australia.

[Q] 3G release date?

I read in a CES article that the 3G/4G version of the NOTE would be available later this month but they did not specify what country. Sorry if this question has been answered on here, but, I looked and couldn't find it. I live in California.
Thanks,

I was in a Verizon store today and I asked him about the release date and he put his hands up with an "It's not officially announced yet, but, very very close." He thought it would be about 649.99 for the 32 gig version.
Ive had it for over a week here in the uk. Got on contract with EE. Might flog it for a ridiculous amount lol.

October 4th, but think it was Germany that might get it later this month.
C'mon, why so late? It can become obsolete due to incoming new Nexus or SGS4 I9506

Its a great piece of hardware, mine was delivered yesterday morning, worth the wait!!
My 32gb is supposed to ship on the 30th of this month. In Norway.
