Buy one off ebay, UK, FR, DE, NL all have them at the moment?
That's what I did from here in Amsterdam.
Or buy the Desire, Vodafone DE and Vodafone NL will launch that within weeks.

I find the price in ebay ridiculously high, isn't it?
Is that price reasonable?
I think The Desire is less apealing than Nexus One.
So, I gonna aim for Nexus One then

Demand and availability pricing I suppose. The prices are higher but unless you know somebody who can ship you one what are your options? I paid US$50 more for mine and think that was okay.

Order it from Google through Borderlinx UK.
There are numerous threads on importing to Germany on android-hilfe.de and pocketpc.ch.

If there is no other way, why not?
Still, ebay price of 700 euro is ridiculous.

Thx for the info.
Appreciate it

Release date for Australia?

hi guys,
does anyone have any ideas when the note will be released in Australia? can't wait to upgrade my Streak for it. always loved Samsung phones for their Amoled screens.
if they're not in Australia any soon, might look for one on eBay
thanks guys

If you're planning to buy it off-contract anyway, MobiCity are selling them already.

Note will be released in AU early next year.
EBay is pretty expensive now. Why not try expansys which had the lowest price now for €455 plus delivery (about AU$ 750). It's really good time to buy while AU dollar is high.

hi,
just wondering where you got the 455 Euro from on the website?
because they are all around € 619,99 on the site
thanks

We don't pay VAT, dude. You can remove that from the price.

i see.....lol...
If I buy it from a European Country other than UK....will it have English Language on it and will it work properly in Australia? What about also the abilities for system updates?
Thanks again....

If you buy a EU version, then you will still have the ability to select English as your language on the initial setup screen. Android support multiple languages.
You also can apply updates as all EU zone use the same thing.

Hi mate, it's from a German site which doesn't ship to Australia (I tried). The current cheapest one I find is expansys.com which is 480 ponds including postage (AUD730 based on last night exchange rate. AUD is worth less today after the interest cut).

I pre-ordered from them on 12th Oct which price is 4 ponds less than the current one. But, my order still hasn't been processed yet. I called them yesterday and they told me should be post yesterday but they didn't.
For the EU verion ordered from expansys, you can remove the UK convertor from your order detail screen which save you 0.99 ponds. And choose DHL instead FedEx for delivery.

Where to buy the SM910C?

Where can I purchase the the SM910C? I can't find any reputable seller. The "C" (Exynos) is suppose to be compatible with virtually every network (and US LTE Bands to some extent); similar to the "F" (Snapdragon)

Mine is is the N910C variant, i am based in Malaysia
The C variant is sold in South East Asia i think

C-version can purchase in Russia (after 23.10 ~850-900$, but i don't know seller from us).. U-version (the same except modem) - in Korea

Dubai
Well this is the model that is sold in Dubai, UAE. Just got mine yesterday.

which shop in dubai has the note 4

You can pre-order C, U and F in Poland (but stores aren't sure yet which version they will have and the price is higher than in other countries).

Can people give us some links please

The C Variant is all I'll really need now, haha. I wonder what the sales figure is now for the Note 4 in general.

@AndreiLux,
Hi, I live in Ecuador and the networks here are Claro and Movistar. I think the 910C is the version I need but not 100%. I am visiting the States in 2 weeks and want to bring back the new phone with me, so I need to get this purchased right away so it can be shipped on time. Do you know what the difference is between the 910C and 910U? If you develop for one, will it be compatible with the other? I will be happy to contribute to your fundraiser campaign to make sure it gets funded.
I am *only* interested in this phone with a custom rom, I don't want all the extra Samsung apps. I want pure Android. So it's very important to me to make sure I buy the right phone that is going to be modded by the community.
I'm having some trouble finding someone that will ship it to the States quickly enough for a reasonable price.
Thank you.

I'm not getting the 560 € price, I'm seeing 710€ on both links 2999 polish zloty is 710 € according to google.
And how reliable is ordering in poland or russia? Does anybody have experience with that?

Depends on your VAT. Anyway one of those shops got good reviews from outside purchasers and they apparently speak English and German if you send them a mail.
I would avoid Russia if possible.

Keep in mind, that some models have a REGION-lock: you must first make a call in the region the phone is locked of a minimum of 5 minutes, before SIM-cards of other regions are accepted!

The Morele one. At least that's what the reviews on the aggregation site say.

Thanks I contacted them. I also contacted the redcoon one, I used the dutch branch once and got positive experiences with it. If anyone wants to know I'll comment when they reply.

Can't you simply flash a ROM (as long as the modem is the same) from a different region (other than the EU) and unlock the region-lock?

I contacted Morele and this is what they said about international shipping:
Hello,
thank you for your ineterst in our offer. Unfortuately, we realize foreign shipping only on Europen Union territory, so we don't able to make order like this for you.
Regards,

Ah I thought you were from the EU. Well then best guess is a importer which gets South American units or a Middle Eastern retailer like one of those UAE shops.

Buying in the UK?

Can't see any retailers in the UK for the LTE version.
Would this be a reliable source from HK?

Amazon are showing the LTE version but only from 3rd party resellers who look like they are located in Europe. Personally I went for the WiFi version as preferred to buy from Amazon direct. Now I tether to my EE mifi or phone

It is the phone functionality of the LTE version that attracts me to the mediapad, more than anything else!

UK is still in the EU, for now. And since it's sold by Amazon they ship to every country inside the EU. Too bad that is most likely going to change for UK after the separation. I always prefer to buy from DE because it's cheaper most of the time. And now they even translated the German site officially in English so it's easier to work with.
