Preordered?

Hurro
Curious to see if anyone has preordered a Galaxy Tab yet. And if so then where from?
Reeeeeeally interested in getting one as the expected launch date is a few days before my birthday but not too sure if preordering is the best way to go.

Still more expensive than Amazon and Expansys.
Sent from my HTC Desire

In all honesty, I would not pre-order.
In my opinion they are price gouging. The Expansys and Amazon prices have been stuck at ~£600+ ever since there were pictures of the device. Sure, if they were selling it a month early at those prices, then I could over look it. But they are totally ignoring how much the device is probably going to cost and acting like they are giving you a good deal.
There aren't going to be supply shortages of these things. Samsung wants to sell like a million a month for a year. They will be there when you want to buy one. Personally, I'd stop and look at the pricing when it drops. That means if its cheap as it should be then you can get a 64gig model. If its too pricey, then just wifi. Either way it doesn't hurt, and it certainly means that you actually get what you pay for instead of what Expansys thought it was worth two months ago when they 'guarenteed the price' (ie before we learned the retail cost in the states is going to be like $650/£410)

I think if anything, £600 is a good price. HTC Desires are still selling for £400 on the internet, so £200 more for a tablet makes sense IMHO.
Sent from my HTC Desire

The problem really is that we don't know where its going to hit on the UK market. If its on par with the Euro-zone bits of europe, then £600 is a little high but about right.
On the other hand, if we're on par with say Finland or the States then those prices are way too high. Potentially you could get a contract one that costs £650 over its life time.
That's certainly why I'm not pre-ordering anyway. Until I see solid pricing for the UK, I don't want to commit to the price. £600 is about the highest it could possibly launch at, and if buying a day after lauch saves me up to £150 then hell yeah I'll wait a day. Im even thinking about importing a GSM one from the states.

Now available in Germany via techdepot.de for €599. Around £550 for us then? Surely can't be long now

From the change made on notebook.de they are in stock now. However my order with them has magically disappeared...

cdon.no
I just pre-ordered mine from cdon.no for 6559 norwegian kroner . I really hope a lot of peope buys it so we get a good community up and running. I currently own a HTC HD mini, and I must say I miss the HD2 forums and all the chefs there.

You'd think that wouldn't you... In fact you'd think that since the Tab hit Vodafone (my carriers) website within a few days of the Tab actually being a thing, you'd think that they'd have prices by now, since it's supposed to be launching within a a couple of weeks.
Personally I'm starting to feel like im banging my head against the ******* wall.

That's true
It's even on Carphone Warehouse I believe. It's the fact its officially out in other countries, so we should have a certain price at least.

Exactly. Its weird how they didn't just do a big release event for each zone giving prices and stuff. I know the carriers want to be doing the majority of the sales and they are a law unto themselves when it comes to release dates but still. If you want buzz then let us know what we are buying.

Wirefly sucks with preorders. I learned to stay away from them from the Evo LTE fiasco last year. Hopefully you have better luck.
I'm planning to be on T-Mobile, but not ordering yet because I want to be able to access all their towers.

Evo LTE fiasco...
Basically the launch delay due to shipments being held by US Customs (due to Apple infringement claim). As they were gradually let out, Sprint had first pick at them while third-parties (like Wirefly) were way down on the list. Don't know when their customers finally got them (I ended up cancelling). Learned my lesson! Not saying that you'll have the same experience, but since this is limited quantities, know that Wirefly will get the left-overs.

That is why I put "preordered FOR" and not "preordered FROM". Some people may get it from an AT&T store, some Best Buy, Some from HTC but that part isn't all that relevant.(for this poll).
The poll is also open until the 18th. If Tmobile doesn't offer it before that from them than it is not a pre-order .

Keep the votes coming guys! I know more people preordered than this .

I would be more concerned that you ordered the Black one for Sprint. The black version is not in the SKU system for Best Buy and it is not available directly from Sprint for preorder and they do not have the slightest clue when the black one will be released. (Expect end of May or June)

I preordered silver from sprint on Friday

Also available for preorder on ZTE USA's site directly, and the first 500 get a free folio case!: https://www.zteusa.com/axon-7
Also available via ZTE USA's Ebay storefront, where it looks like you can get it even earlier, July 18th: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZTE-Axon-7-Unlocked-Smartphone-4GB-64GB-Ion-Gold-/252459025536

Freakin' awesome. About time. I have to go through BestBuy because I have a healthy amount of credit with them and after paying for a wedding and honeymoon I'm broke.
Edit : That sucks. BestBuy has it listed as coming 8/17.
Edit 2 : BestBuy also lists it as no Bluetooth connectivity. That has to be incorrect, right?

Silver is listed as 8/17 on ZTE's website. I pre-ordered it - I'm cool with waiting for a color that isn't gold.

they wrote unlocked it means that the bootloader is unlocked?

I have to admit was losing interest in this device. Now that there is a release date and a better than expected price point I'm beginning to regain some interest though I already have the LG G5 and Nexus 6P.
If there are no major flaws and it performs like the specs suggest, this will be a killer device at $400.

Looks like ZTE is pulling an HTC, with the gold version releasing at least two weeks before the silver/grey.
I don't know why they did this. Agitates me.

That's what agitates me. The darker colors (black/grey) are usually the more popular options in the US so you'd think they'd opt to ramp up production on those instead of the gold.

Gray is up now.

Ordered the quartz gray. Might be able to get rid of the bonus headphones for $50. $350 for the A7 wouldn't be too bad.
Anyone know if Newegg will contact me before it actually ships? There's a month between now and when it's scheduled to ships, so who knows what might happens between now and then.

USA Model Listed as 4 GB, 64 GB storage and 3250 mh battery.

I'm guessing the $400 price tag over $450 is because we get no headphones, screen protector, and case in the box.
I'd of paid the extra $50 for those. I hate that all the international devices get extras and US doesn't.

T-Mobile S8/S8+ Waiting Room!

Since we have a room for Verizon and AT&T let's start one for us on T-Mobile.
Pre-Ordered S8+ in Arctic Silver Shipping 4/20-4/21 but my friend at T-Mobile said they have to list that date by law. It will be out earlier at least on Magenta!

Got invited to unpacked2017, got the Royal treatment and got to meet DJ Koh! Have the S8+ with upgraded promo (adds wireless Harmon headphones and another 256gb SD card) on preorder! My buddy who won the promotion got a free S7, vr gear, and all kinds of other cool stuff, free hotel, over 3k in cash for taxes and spending money, oh and 2 free S8+ on the way! Had one hell of a great time in NYC.

Is that a good or bad thing? I honestly haven't had a custom ROM or anything in that nature since the G1. So rooting and custom ROM's I consider to be new to me, in that sense would I be able to do that on this phone because I just read that it has its bootloader locked?
