almost exactly 11 months after this

I am sensing SUNDAY June 12th AT&T release of Samsung Galaxy Attain (almost 11 months after the Captivate)!!!
How long was it from when they made the announcement last year did the Galaxy S actually go on sale on AT&T?
Here you go, last years dates I posted earlier

Do you guys remember how the first Galaxy was introduced on the 4 carriers last year?
Let me remind you
June 4th - first release in Asia
June 29th - launch party in New York City where it was first announced that 4 models were coming to 4 carriers, with no dates. (+25 days)
Later on, gradually, release dates were being announced about 1-3 weeks prior to a particular release. The phone was released as follows:
T-Mob - July 15th (+41 days)
AT&T - July 18th (+44 days)
Sprint, keyboarded CDMA version - August 30th (+87 days)
Verizon, CDMA version - September 9th (+97 days)
We learned that SGS1 was even coming to the United States 3.5 weeks after the phone was released in Asia.
The quickest provider T-Mob got it almost 6 weeks after the first country.
The slowest provider VZW - 3 months after.
So give this some time, sit back, relax, wait for bug reports from the UK beta testers , and enjoy your fixed (or maimed) version in a few short weeks.
peace

Note the US Launch party last year was 25 days after first international release, and this event is around 25 days after Korea/UK release
lol after dealing with the ATT Craptivate for a year I'll gladly "beta test" the vanilla samsung GS2
good luck with your carrier updates. I'm done purchasing US phones "variants" that force you to use reorient kernels for the Roms.
Thanks for the release date info. Looks like they're following a similar schedule... just bumped ahead 1 month from last year =)
Still, as much as I'd like to wait for a US variant... I don't really want to have to sign a contract to get one, nor do I want to put up with the bloatware and filth they put on the phone. Rooting and flashing ROMs on my T-mobile spec Galaxy S was annoying, having to ODIN back to certain firmwares before being able to flash a new ROM.
And the one question that I'm still wondering... will the US be getting a tegra version? That would suck =(

i've been off contract since Dec. i had originally settled on getting the Infuse when it was first announced but instantly fell in love with the SGS2 and decided to wait. but... i need a new phone NOW. actually i needed a new one 2 months ago but decided to hold strong for the SGS2... but it's come to a point where my current phone is damn near unusable, so i think i'm going to get the infuse when it launches and roll the dice on the sgs2 coming out before the remorse period ends. or failing that just give it back and wait some more for the sgs2 to release.
I think the best option for some of us is to buy the carrier branded version on contract, sell it, and use that money to get the vanilla SGS 2. After dealing with all the Captivate issues as well I'm never buying a carrier branded Android ever again.

not to mention the Craptivate looks ugly as hell and nothing like a SGS
If i was on att there would be no doubt id go with international like you said no waiting for carrier update, no carrier branding and missing hardware features.
I really wish carriers kept the design the same as the international it would be so much easier to update and to port roms

That's one point where you're crazy. The Captivate is the nicest Galaxy S and has a lot less plastic than any other one. Everyone has told me they liked the Captivate over the other Galaxy S variants. I've been very happy with the Captivate, but not as happy about the AT&T branding and waiting for their crap.
I would much rather spend the money and buy the phone unlocked than buy it from ATT.

Only issue I see with this is warranty support. If Samsung US would support a UK model fine, but if it requires international shipping that would give me pause.
What if the US version has NFC? Would that change your mind?
Yes, NFC is useless right now, but wouldn't that at least lower your resell value of the UK version whenever one else in your area has NFC?

Given the fact (I hope) all 4 major carriers are getting it, and AT&T, VZW and T-Mob are in an NFC payment system alliance , the chances of US getting NFC versions are not extremely low

I don't see NFC being that important to me right away. I am guessing by the time it becomes important to me, I will already be looking at another phone.
Also, even though the UK might not be getting the NFC version, you probably will still be able to buy a NFC version unlocked from another country.
Hate to say it... but until the iPhone gets NFC it's not worth worrying about.
Devices still need to be upgraded in stores, airlines, and what not to accept NFC no? The above poster is probably correct, the phones are going to need to be widely available before companies spend the money to upgrade their equipment.

Why, because the iPhone has the market share lead and will dictate what the market will do? No, that's Android.
I remember specifically on Engadget and now when Google numerous sites say June 16th. But yet now I'm hearing the 17th ? Which is pretty bananas as I took off Thursday working a double Friday.
I've always heard it was the 17th, on Friday.
Here is the press release from samsung.com.
http://www.samsung.com/us/news/newsRead.do?news_seq=19862&page=1&gltype=localnews
"Premium Android Honeycomb Tablet with Ultra-slim, Lightweight Design and Brilliant 10-inch Touchscreen Available Exclusively at Best Buy Union Square Store in New York City Starting June 8; Available Nationwide Starting June 17"
Though maybe you could get lucky and find a retailer that starts selling early?
PS. Maybe online retailers will start shipping on the 16th so that it could arrive at customers homes by the 17th?

Idk I'm not retarded I feel that way. But if you even Google Samsung 10.1 June 16th many sites say its the release date. Honestly I have been tabletless for over a month waiting if retailers sell out Friday while I work a double I'm gonna have to get a f***king Xoom

No worries, I hadn't heard anything about the 16th until you mentioned it. The sooner the better, depending on price though.
no it's been the 17th. i just hope that samsung doesn't pull another fast one and make it a release for New Jersey only now, and push the "official" release again another week

(With Extreme Sarcasm) What on earth would make you think a company would ever try to do something like that??
I mean gosh that would be like telling everybody the update for your phone you made is coming soon then releasing it six months later.
Or like vague references to Dual Application Processor and then start using the actual brand name a few days before launch.
Or like telling everyone your tablet you make is launching on a specific date only to launch in one store that date and pushing back the full launch one week
Or like telling everyone that folks in your one store launch can only have one specific model after they lined up after hearing about your one store launch two-step move.....
Or like showing an MicroSD card slot on your tablet at every conference and uTube video only to launch without one and require a non existant cellular radio version purchase to *possibly* have a MicroSD card slot.
(And I preordered a Galaxy Tab. I guess Samsung is to me what a abusive white trash husband is to his spouse. Beat me as you may, I will always come back....)

With all this excitement over in the U.K. and Europe about the HTC release, we Americans are patiently awaiting some kind of news of a release date here. To my knowledge, there has been no update from AT&T, T-Mobile or Sprint since the initial HTC unveiling last month.
With whom and where in the USA did you make your pre-order, find a fully working demo, find an announcement for a release date, or receive your first HTC One?
No release date for US version yet
There is no information for the US version but I am also waiting big time.
I had a preorder from Hantec.uk but now the release date has been pushed back to at least March 25 so I have until then to see if the US version will come out soon after. If it is close I will just cancel my order and get from the US so I can also get the ATT warranty on the phone.
they said we are first priority, but i dont believe that, i feel like they are going to wait until the gs4 is released so they can release it at the same time, they did the same **** with the vivid when the gs2 came out.
HTC would have been so better off if they could have sold it's flagship phone before the Galaxy S4 takes over the Ad's. Too bad for HTC
Check out phonedog.com. They just had an article saying preorders for AT&T start today and the release date is the 21st.

I've never heard of at&t taking any phones back for a trade in. Sure you get a lower price signing up for a 2yr contract but not a trade in.
Also while HTC did have a hand in brokering the deal, they are not the ones running the program. Clover is.
I think the program dates will either be extended or we'll see something early next week for a release the week of the 24th. Probably the former unfortunately. Either way I'm not holding my breath though.
It just sucks that HTC has said that the USA is their largest target market, and we'll be getting it at the same time as the other countries, if not later it seems.

Looks like Sprint, T-Mo and AT&T will still be launching the HTC One in the U.S. before the end of March.
That's fantastic news, 'cause I'm getting mega antsy. Another months wait would have been embarrassingly unbearable.
Thanks for that update. Here's hoping that it's actually the 15th for the US as well.
This is good news. Was just a hair away from a Note 2 as I didn't want to wait another month or so.

yea heres hoping to thtat but if no information has been given then i doubt its gonna be released of friday, but maybes its not that big in the U.S? eh?
mine is due this friday from tmobile uk as a upgrade
I can see this being the same for Canada as we operate on the same US AT&T LTE bands for Rogers, Telus and Bell/Virgin. So phones destined for Canada may not be delayed either .

No, I agree. There will probably be a lot more buzz and advertising right before it is launched, so unfortunately I highly doubt we'll see anything this Friday.

I went ahead and ordered the Note 2 :laugh:
I will get 14 days to return it if the One shows up by the 28th or the 29th of March but I highly doubt it.
The US timeline may not be affected by the delays could be because it wasn't going to be released until April.
I am keeping my finger crossed that I will end up with it by the end of March
Don't think they will release it this friday.. im hoping to see some sort of pre-order page going live this week tho

I could always do that as well
, but isn't it a hassle to switch out? I mean you get everything all setup on one device and then have to take it back and switch out and deal with the rep headaches and what not....unless you do everything online. Still a pain.
I will give it a little more time. Hopefully hear something by the end of this week.
I know I will enjoy the Note anyway as I have an s3 right now and love it, just love new phones, lol!
Wife did say this is the last one for awhile, unless I start Craigslisting...

Since the HTC One upgrade promo technically ended yesterday (it's still listed on HTC's site), I'm sure we'll see U.S. service providers start announcing release dates and pricing any time now. The Samsung Galaxy S IV will be unveiled tomorrow, so it'll probably be Friday or next Monday before we get details.

That is hilarious, I switch a phone about every other month sometimes every month. The rep got used seeing me in the store. It is not much of a hassle for me. My wife gave up on saying no to switching phone cause I am addicted.

Depends on the carrier.. if you're on CDMA it could be a pain switching devices.. but with GSM phones its pretty much just swiping sim cards..
But the user above hopes that HTC releases the HTC One in the next two weeks being that he have a 14 day return to exchange to another phone..
i would of had never done that, Maybe in the past when most carriers had a 30 day return period.. now most have a 14 day return..
Most likely the device will be out within a week or two after release.. because new customers have to start a new line the day they pre-order it.. if they was in the store.. (at least thats what Sprint did to me the time i pre-order my EVO 4G) maybe things have change and you can pre-order it and sign up the day it comes out..
I wish I could believe this... But I can't until there are solid release dates.

The US release of the Galaxy Note Edge is a complete mess. No one seems to know when the phone is due to come out. Not sure where those press releases came from last week but they seem to be wrong. I just came from an AT&T store and they have no clue when they will be getting the phone. I called every Besy Buy in Milwaukee and they don't have a clue either. I have Verizon and it hasn't even passed to FCC for Verizon yet. What is the deal with the phone? If they are having issues manufacturing the phone then just say so and push the date back. They announced the phone back in September and there is just as much uncertainty now as there was two months ago. Looks like I'm just gonna stick with the Note 4 and then just wait for the HTC M9 to come out next year.

The 14th has been the date so we will find out this friday.
The people at these stores are told to not tell customers when new phones are coming out because they want you to buy a phone right then and there so that after you do buy it you can be mad at yourself for not waiting and then spend more money on buying another new phone.
I was talking to a TMO rep last week about the 14th date and she went out of her way to make sure I understood she was saying she had no confirmation of the phone being released on the 14th even after she slipped and told me that she wasnt sure if they were doing pre-orders.
Tmobile's website also lists the 14th as a date.
https://explore.t-mobile.com/samsung-galaxy-note-edge
There is a chance that some of the reps you were talking to did not know about the new phone coming out and really were telling you the truth, but more than likely they're just lying because thats what they're instructed to do.

That may be the case at some stores but when the Note 4 was coming out Best Buy was able to say it would be in on 10/17. I bought the Droid Turbo two weeks ago and I was in the Verizon store a few days before it was released and they even pulled out their store display model and let me hold it. And not to mention you could pre-order the Note 4 on all 4 major US carriers once they announced the release date. I still keep seeing websites saying it'll be out on the 14th on all the major US carriers and I find that hard to believe especially when the Verizon model never passed thru FCC.

To tell the truth i have heard nothing about Verizon and the Note edge it has all been Tmobile and ATT. There has been small word on the Sprint one but not much.
Its possible that they dont have a confirmed date yet. There was a user that posted a screen shot of them saying something about the 14th or 17th.
All i know is there is no fussin until Friday the 14th lol....
But really we just gotta wait and see.
I believe samsung didnt push this phone as much as they should ,but samsung does suck at getting the word out there before the device is out.
We have a few more days and we will see what happens.
In the Sprint newsroom section it does say the 14th. However, I did chat with a Sprint rep earlier and they acted like they didn't know about it.
i emailed 2 bestbuy about pre-order att note edge.
1 bestbuy told me "it not out yet".
the other bestbuy said "we dont sell note edge, try bestbuy.com "
To tell the truth, I think that none of the basic people know anything.
With the leak image from tmobile. I bet that was only sent to the head people as the head stores.
While everyone else just works there and looks up everything on the system. Which the system hasnt updated yet since the phones havent been scan in.
I do remember doing an online chat before they confirmed the 14th date, and no one could give me anything. After they confirm the date the online chat people where able to tell me that it came out the 14th but nothing more
This is just my guess tho. But i have seen this happen before with other items. No one knows anything because they havent gotten that email in there in box. While the main people know but basically cant say much.
But we will see what happens on the 14th. I am hopping to be able to just walk into the corporate store at 10am Friday and pick up a white one, but i dont know. All i know is ill be refreshing the page daily as i do now, and just waiting. There isnt anything else we can do about this.
My tmo rep told me they are not doing preorder add it is unknown how many the does were getting out when they were coming in. They did say release is 14th and to call the evening before to see if they have them in stock.
