End of December 2013, with CES right around corner. Is this a good time to buy a Note 3 or should I wait for something like S5?
Depends on what u prefer a phablet or a phone.
Time for buying note 3 is great, its cashback time

I think for Promo's and cashbacks and other stuffs as previous comment said, the answer is yes.
But actually, Samsung phones are going through a tough time now with the latest firmware builds.. Battery life is really bad ESPECIALLY if you are using Mobile data. It's almost same for S3 and Note 2 also... Dats why I created this thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579075
My advice however is! Wait just a little bit, KitKat will soon be released for the Note 3. See what it brings... And then u can make ur decision. In about 1 month, KitKat will be released officially... Which means that we will get some leaks soon. Just be patient.
I normally buy every Samsung Flagship. But next year, I am waiting for the successors of HTC One, LG G2 and LG Optimus G Pro. Since Samsung decided to start playing with their bootloaders

IMHO the S5 will only be delivered in March (the earliest), and at that point a 32GB version might be a lot more expensive than a Note 3 now or at the start of January.
Now or the start of January is also a good spot for another reason - if you look around a little you might not only find a large discount but also one of the models that still come with MI7 or MJ1/MJ2 bootloader, so you can still root with Universal Root De La Vega (if you really need to keep your knox warranty flag). That was why I bought mine about a month ago or so - even if the prices were still not great the old models were slowly running-out and being replaced with phones that come directly with MJ7 or similar (new bootloader).
In my experience, waiting can be disappointing where these devices are concern. I owned a S4 for a month, I really didn't gain the advantages of it over my S3. Then I was keeping an eye on the LG G2 and Nexus 5, to no avail, disappointment on both ends when they were released. Finally, I found the note 3 to be quite impressive and with a $700+ price tag, I went for it and I am very satisfied- S Note being my favourite native app.

Thanks for the responses guys. I'm getting a Note 3 right now for about $600 here in Pakistan. That's the LTE version (9005).
Only problem is that the black one went out of stock -_-

I'm planning to buy one soon as well.
Sold my S4 LTE, and was planning to buy Note 3 LTE, when I heard news they're bringing out 3 new colors for Note 3 of which I'm waiting for Rose Gold Black impatiently
Just look at this beauty!

That depends, if you just want the phone now is a good time, I got one overnighted for $200 (with contract renewal).
If you want to root it and run ROMs then you may want something else or to wait.
I intend to do the latter and will just have to be patient since I have this:
AP: N900AUCUBMI9
CP: N900AUCUBMI9
CSC: N900AATTBMI9I am SOL for now.
That said the device is awesome.

I didn't check what it came with. Rooted/Flashed as soon as I unboxed it.
And you can get the Exynos one for 62k.

Looks like Samsung is out hunting for girls.
I get mine on the 29th. I've got 3 days of work at the London MCM Expo, so it should kill some time.
i should be getting mine on the 31st through amazon.
bits i have also ordered are the dual pack of slim samsung cases, the tpu blue case(samsung), an extra battery,pack of 2 screen protectors(samsung) and recently the rock hard cover. Im always unsure which case will work best, but i hate the flip tops.
according to amazon, the screen protector should arrive on the 29th, the battery on the 1s of June. The covers are ordered from mobilefun and i have no info on those..
Pebble blue for me as well, and i have an extra 16GB micro SD waiting for the phone...
Aha! replaced my delivery method with amazon and now ill get it on the 30th of May! yeah!
Ordered mine through dialaphone for delivery on the 30th, so only 5 more sleeps! It comes with a case and 32GB card, but they turn up in a month which seems a bit bizarre!
I've ordered a rock case with screen protectors, a car holder, a bike holder for my golf trolley and some nfc chips to play with

I ordered 10 25mm ultralight ones from nfcdog.com it came to just under £11
But having read up some more apparently the 38mm ones are easier to use as you don't have to be as accurate with them
The plan is to for one in each holder to auto launch the correct program when I insert the phone. And one by the bed to turn the phone into silent
Did an early upgrade with Orange last night, guy on the phone was very helpful, 36 a month, 1000 mins, unlimited texts and 1gb of data.
I lost my SGS1 about a month a go and my bank have replaced it for me with an SGS2! which i will sell towards the early upgrade cost and any accesories i buy.
Gonna go with the 64gb sandisk mobile ultra sd card, and some sort of pouch.
Is there anywhere i can buy an official pebble blue battery cover? I'm concerned that because i'm upgrading through Orange that it'll have an Orange logo on the back cover and all the bloatware, can anyone shed any light on if this was the case for the SG2 or other newish handsets?
Been so indecisive on wether to get the blue or white that even now i've ordered i'm starting to have second thoughts
Ordered mine as a free upgrade from my s2. £29 per month 2000 anyone anytime mins 5000 texts 5000 3-3 mins truly unlimited web with no throttling. Result..... been hearing a lot in last hour blue s3 is delayed. Hope not tho

I've had mine ordered since the 5th of May. This has been the longest wait of my life!! I'm upgrading from an iPhone 3GS to the Pebble Blue S3 - 16GB + a 32GB SD card and cover.
I hope these delay rumours are unfounded! I was praying that because it was pre-ordered it could possibly arrive on the 29th.
This is my first Android phone ever!! So I'm looking forward to getting my hand dirty and showing its capabilities off to the iSheeple in my family (and friends).
Waiting for my sim-free blue S3 from Clove (hopefully not delayed!). Not planning on getting any accessories apart from at some point a case for the beach,and maybe the wireless charging kit when it's available but that will depend on price really. Already received and activated my replacement micro sim from Three so everything is ready

I ordered the pebel blue Samsung Galazy S3 that comes with a 32gb card a screen protector and a pouch..
it's with Vodafone £29 a month for 24 months..
On top of that i ordered a few items to go with the phone..
1 x 64gb card
1x Samsung blue case
1x Car Holder + charger
1x Anti finger print screen protector
i have everything just waiting for the phone is killing me. But then again next Wednesday and we should be all good yay..
5 more days people lol..
I have a One X, but I have discovered that I can't live with just the available 25GB storage. The battery isn't such an issue, but I will certainly be happier with a removable one.
The One X has had teething problems. For example I still haven't got GPS, and HTC have said to get it, I will have to send it back for repair. So I have ordered a S3, from Carphone Warehouse, to collect on the 30th. I have got a 64Gb card, and I am looking forward to the 50GB Dropbox storage; double the amount that the HTC has. I wonder what - if any - teething problems the S3 will have?
When I get the One X back, I will compare them, and keep the best.
Seems that Best Buy has the 16GB Galaxy Note in-stock at the stores, while the 32GB is not yet. Might change as the day goes by, but I would think its worth the extra $50 for the extra 16GB of built in storage.

Yeah. Originally there was a possibility I would be getting the 10.1 tonight, but I'm really leaning toward the 32GB version. Might be a few days.
I guess Best Buy will not be carrying the 32 in stores. HHGREGG by me has a $50 off coupon for purchases of $499 and more so I think i will just get the 16GB and at least it will only be $449. I can live.
For those that want the 32GB, I guess you can get the 16GB now and exchange it for a 32GB when they become available in the store. You would have to pay the difference and hope that it is before the 30 days.

HHGregg specifically says that the $50 off $499 cannot be used on Unilateral Price Policy products. I can't imagine Galaxy Note 10.1 not being registered as one because it definitely is.
I missed that line. Good catch! Well that sucks!
Just picked mine up from Best Buy. They definitely didn't have the 32gb in stock.

Just order off there website and see if it is available for pickup. Or order off amazon and avoid sales tax and wait a little or use the savings from sales tax to get overnight shipping. Plus if you have an amazon store credit card no interest for 12 months on all orders over 499

Starting to get impression there's no way to predict lte/wifi and size from purely the serial number, ah well.
But it definitely seems like you can predict location and date of manufacture though.

To those with the later models, do you still have the grounding issues? I'm thinking of purchasing a new one and would like to know if the hardware problem is fixed on those models. That way I just give mine, that was the initial release batch, to my girlfriend. She won't notice the issue. Thanks.

Samsung is selling this with a free low end phone indicating that it isn't selling so well.

I don't see the point of lte here yet. The number of towers are still small for lte coverage, the limited data plan is expensive, and it'll drain your battery faster. There just needs to be a better battery technology.
It'll take another 2 years before lte is a norm.

help
Hi,
I need help rooting my Galaxy Note 8 GT-N5100. I never rooted any phone before and don't know where to start. Please help. TIA!
I have a Note 8 that I purchased through Amazom (GT-N5110). I'm planning to return to the Philippines from the USA at the end of the year. Am I going to run into any problems? The Note 8 is wi-fi only.

Relax. No such issues about different Wi-Fi frequencies.

I'm using this as my main phone..
Hi,
Note 8.0 (N5100) user here from Batangas. This is my main phone right now cause I sold my S3.
I used cyanogenmod 10.2 on my S3 and I think there is no CM for N5100.
Is there any other custom ROM for N5100?
As there are still many of us looking to invest in a shield. We should start listing the best deals we can find for the tablet and official accessories for black Friday and cyber Monday.
Searching a week or two ago, I found nothing. BUT that was a week or two ago. I wonder if the app stores will have any deals on games?
---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 PM ----------
So a quick search came up with
www.zdnet.com/amazon-reveals-black-friday-deals-free-paid-apps-bargain-tech-7000036001/
No shield but who knows what kind of app deals might pop up. ??
I am keeping my eyes out for deals, nothing yet. Will post if I find something
Im not having luck finding the shield on sale. I imagine amazon will go crazy with deals on apps
I'd be a but surprised if this goes in sale, the price is already great for an android tablet, but it isn't a big name like Samsung or any of the Nexus line.
Please share anything you find
Black Friday o_0.... What are you talking about..,,. The shield... THEE SHIELD tablet starts at $299.... Who needs black Friday

Last year the Shield Portable had a black friday sale everywhere. $299 reduced to $249 with the case thrown in. Also, it wasn't announced until thanksgiving day.

I'm hopeful we will get something similar this year. If so, I'll buy it in a heartbeat. If not, I'll probably buy a used LG G Pad GPE.
Personally, I'm hoping for $249 with the cover and the green box thrown in for free. Maybe even a $299 option that includes the controller.
Well, it's happening but i it's only the LTE version which I have no use for.

Have fun with that LG, completely different products for different uses there, if you are just looking for a cheap tablet then the Shield is not where you need to be anyways.
Woot! http://shield.nvidia.com/promotions...IHETpodcMTcRlPa+TFAwTG5toziV8R7HAKs1v3NsQXBXg

Booooo, what a shame, I wanted wifi one deal, not interested at all on the LTE one (I don't even have LTE on my country). Won't be buying this time, maybe next year when the price drops.

As did I. Ended up using a $30 off $150 purchase at tigerdirect.com
I wonder is that just when buying direct from Nvidia or if other retailers are included also.

Mohemed Arshad: That information is not updated yet, currently its only for online stores.
Glad I have free LTE

I really hope we see a deal on the wifi version as well, even just toss in the case for free or something.
