I read that some are getting it by tomorrow, so which sites are shipping already?
Expansys UK.
It's "expected" release date is tomorrow, so is it shipping or is it just speculated?

So it looks like Expansys UK will ship to US, and has them in stock. What is the difference between ordering from Expansys UK and Expansys US? Does the UK version just come with a different AC plug? Expansys US does not have them in stock and has no estimated arrival date.
Why is it listed as 16GB Wi-Fi? Even though it has a GSM band in it's specification.
I'm talking about this : http://www.expansys.com/samsung-galaxy-note-16gb-wifi-221962/
I think they're just announcing the release date today, I don't think it's been released yet. Just my opinion though - Click the link at 2PM EST.

In another thread, some got emails stating that the device has been shipped today.

Hole hell, notebook.de has shipping to India for 290 Euro.
My note has been shipped yesterday (express delivery) and it reached the local express-hub 13 hours ago (which is like 10 minutes away from me) - just waiting for that delivery guy to finally ring the goddamn bell - I'm actually watching the street right now (It's 7pm in Germany).
Technichally it's there ...
notebooksbilliger.de
I've got mine today (from notebook.de) 10 am in Austria.
Great device in every meaning of the word
Those who have got it, can you please give Dungeon Hunter and Dungeon Defenders : Second wave a shot and see if it works fine? Also run some benchmarks. I'm on the edge of ordering it and blowing off a lot of cash.
Please run quadrant and other benchmarks please. I have seen 3600, 3900, 4400, and 4700 scores from quadrant. Wondering if the final version is just as fast.

where did you get the 290 Euro from? what the??
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.

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.

oh yes october 1st for UK! Gunna have to buy this on release day!

I ordered mine from O2 the very first day it was available as order (not pre-order). So 14th march i could order, 15th march i had it.
I have an O2 contract, but chose only the phone to buy. They had no rule to sell only to new sim activation or anything.With Galaxy S3 and other phones they did that,the first period they sold it only to new contracts,if you were a client already you had to wait.
Anyway...try O2. Phone is unlocked.
Hello guys!
So I ordered the device on Ebay yesterday and since then I'm waiting and reading all the topics here, educating myself and preparing for what to expect from my N7 when it arrives.
As it will be a long wait (it has to ship through half the world) I'm creating this thread as a place for discussion with other fellows that are waiting for their devices to arrive.
Now.. I should say that my biggest concern is that once its here there is no way to replace it, so I'm hoping it wont have any of the issues mentioned in the other threads.. I guess thats the price for being an early adopter these days
So, are there others waiting for their N7s to arrive?
L8rs,

Yep, Bulgaria. God knows when it will be available for purchase here officially. Devices on the Play Store are not available here at all.
I presume the local Asus service does not handle the new N7 warranty yet. I am too impatient and I ordered early, so I hope that I wont be facing issues.

Just got mine today. I got it from the play store. Free shipping and got it in 3 days. Not bad seeing as I'm on the eat coast.

I didn't order the tablet from eBay, because I'm afraid that it will happen what you're saying there. So the only choice is I need to wait for the tablet officially available in my country, i'm from Malaysia. It will take 1 and a half month for it, like previous nexus devices. But that's going to take a long time to me I'm too impatient to have it in my hands.
Waiting for mine also (32gb), Bought from the US since its not yet out here IN Australia, fingers crossed there's no dead pixel/dust.

I will survive a dead pixel but not the touchscreen issues that some are reporting. Crossing fingers!
I'm as well waiting as patiently as I can. Living in sweden but ordered mine from a seller on Amazon who ships internationally. The other guys on another forum got theirs yesterday, and ordered about one day before me, so I'm going to be so disapointed if I don't get mine on monday! Darn, this wait
Btw, regarding the possibility of a faulty device. I've heard some talk about international warranty from Asus. Is that confirmed?

If you've ever owned a Nexus before, the procedure is exactly the same to unlock and root. Having owned a OG N7, I already had the drivers installed and tools needed (adb and fastboot).
You can have it on a custom rom in 10 minutes if you have the recovery and rom already downloaded.

Australia, originally paid about 25 aud foe shipping, next morning got a message from the seller that DHL couldn't deliver to my area without extras because I live in a 'remote' location, they charged me another 20 USD for that but also changed it to express shipping.

When I ordered I noticed that the Expedited shipping was around $20 cheaper than the Economy shipping - I thought Economy means "slower but cheaper", turns out the faster shipping service is cheaper when shipping to Eastern Europe. A bit strange.
I guess in your case the Expedited service was more expensive (as it is supposed to be) so you had to pay extra.
Anyway, its now 3 days since my purchase and the tracking page has not updated since then, no details as to where it is and when to expect it. Hope this changes on Monday. Does your tracking page show some updated info?

I found such threads created for other devices as well so I decided OnePlus One also needed one. Here, I hope to discuss about the pricing, availability and sellers.
I would add all the information in OP so everyone can read all the information we gather through discussion!
Right now, HomeShopping is the only seller selling OnePlus One in Pakistan. They currently require a 3 to 4 week shipping time which is totally understandable to the rarity of this phone.
Pricing:
OnePlus One 16GB White : 41990PKR Link
OnePlus One 64GB White: 74990PKR Link
OnePlus One 16GB Black: 59990PKR Link
OnePlus One 64GB Black: 74990PKR Link
I'm currently in UK and today ordered OPO. Hope to receive in next 1-2 weeks and then will be on the way to Pakistan for few months. can't wait for OPO,

Anyone wants to buy OPO 64GB then i would advice them to buy from Aliexpress and shipped to their address in Pakistan. It cost 490 USD including shipping charges and delivery with DHL within 4-8 days. saving of almost 280 USD which are 28K rupees.

Where does Aliexpress originally belong ? Is it a Pakistani business or is it American based, any idea ? Plus, do you have any experience dealing with them ? Any significant purchases ? Are they good enough to put your trust in them ? Are you sure the figure $490 includes our sick customs clearance as well ? I would want to be very sure of all these things before placing an order.

Aliexpress is chine site similar to ebay and 40% owned by Yahoo. Its perfectly safe site as long as you buy your stuff from verified sellers. I bought my OPO 64GB on 11th and delivered on 18th to UK and cost me around £280 or 480USD. including all the shipping and custom charges.

One more then. In case you buy from one of these 2 sellers and chose DHL then DHL will pay the custom charges on your behalf and will deliver phone to your address. Then at point of delivery you have to pay custom charges to delivery guy. Not sure how much custom but should not be more then 2000Rs.

Thanks for the tips and all the info.
Yes, I have been reading on 1+1 and Aliexpress on an indian thread, a great many of them have ordered from and been recommending J&K Tech. They were referring to a shipping service names Arames or something through which they didn't incur any custom charges but the ones who choose DHL had to pay the duty. I don't know the logic behind all this but currently J&K team lists Singapore Post (free shipping to Pakistan) and DHL ($40) as their shipping services. With Singapore Post the delivery time is 15-59 days ! That's 2 months ! Can't say how much of a time do they actually take normally though.
And what about the invite system, any idea ? I read if you own the phone you can invite others to get one. Is it also valid for someone who purchased it from outside OPO such as yourself or only valid for the in house program ?
How is the CM11 on this phone by the way ? Have you managed to get the google apps installed yet ?
Let me know the overall experience. Is it worth ditching my note 3 for ?

Does anyone know if the OnePlus 4G LTE will work on the only LTE frequency Zong provides? The LTE bands the OPO supports are 1/3/4/7/17/38/40. Which of these bands corresponds to Zong's 10 MHz spectrum in 1.8 GHz frequency?

75K are almost 760 USD on today's exchange rate. That's madness.
Anyone wants to buy OPO 64GB then i would advice them to buy from Aliexpress and shipped to their address in Pakistan. It cost 490 USD including shipping charges and delivery with DHL within 4-8 days. saving of almost 280 USD which are 28K rupees.

Brother I was about to order last week then after some research I found out.
For any phone purchase/import a Pakistani needs a NOC from PTA based upon the IMEI of the phone. For NOC you can apply from a GPO and 5-7 business days you will get NOC.
Issues possible
Getting IMEI of phone before actual purchase is impossible. No vendor will provide.
If we don't get NOC on time, after a fixed time period phone will be wasted(Used by children of Government officers)
Allmytech.com offering 64gb for 52k which is reasonable. I hope soon it's gets down to 45k.

Thanks for the tips and all the info.
Yes, I have been reading on 1+1 and Aliexpress on an indian thread, a great many of them have ordered from and been recommending J&K Tech. They were referring to a shipping service names Arames or something through which they didn't incur any custom charges but the ones who choose DHL had to pay the duty. I don't know the logic behind all this but currently J&K team lists Singapore Post (free shipping to Pakistan) and DHL ($40) as their shipping services. With Singapore Post the delivery time is 15-59 days ! That's 2 months ! Can't say how much of a time do they actually take normally though.
And what about the invite system, any idea ? I read if you own the phone you can invite others to get one. Is it also valid for someone who purchased it from outside OPO such as yourself or only valid for the in house program ?
How is the CM11 on this phone by the way ? Have you managed to get the google apps installed yet ?
Let me know the overall experience. Is it worth ditching my note 3 for ?

I ditched Note 3 for OnePlus one. Got an invite from Indian community at OPO forums. When it came to ordering credit line was not cleared, so I.bought Z2.
Now selling Z2 at Olx to get OPO.
If you can get OnePlus one. Get it right away. All custom room devs are supporting and most of all FrancoKernel is there.

Waleed, I think we should wait a few more weeks or may be a month or so until the launch of note 4 in September. OPO will sure drop in price after that. I personally am not very tired of my note 3 and can certainly wait a couple more months to see how the market shapes up. If note 4 is not as good as I expect I will jump over for the OPO but I hope the price by that time would drop to around 38-40K PKR. Inshaallah. Let's see.

That's the toughest thing . I can code for straight 18 hours but waiting is something tough for me.
Note 4 can only be exciting if 64bit SOC and OS are introduced, other than that it will be a just highly priced phablet.

Dekhte hein mere "coder" bhai what this much anticipated note 4 brings to the table. OPO kahin nai bhaag raha. It will only drop in price with time. You're right about the over priced phablet thing but let's see. Filhaal to OPO too is selling way over priced everywhere. Ek aadh maheena ruk jao, my suggestion

Zong has 1800mhz for LTE, that is supported by the 1+1. I think its band 3 or 7

They don't deliver in Pakistan I'm sure. You'll have to get it delivered to some friend/relative in some other country and then finally figure out to get it here when they fly back. Kaam lamba hai but if you've someone in abroad who might be flying home soon, you've a pretty sweet deal at your hands.

Nai aanay wala bhai to pher hum Pakistaniyon keliye ye invites bekaar hein. Agar boht jaldi hai lene ki to araam se yahan beth ke Aliexpress pe order kero and the phone will be in your hands within a week. Nai to abhi intezaar kero ek di maheenay aur sab clear ho jaye ga. IPhone 6 bhi aa jaye ga, Note 4 bhi aur 1+1 ki price bhi down ho jaye gi. Pher jo marzi lete rehna.
