same here. got it from sm moa for Php 37k
Well based on tab s prices and s5 prices gadgets in the philippines are still pricier (was in manila iloilo September) compared to saudi prices (most probably because of tax)

Yeah. Hoping to get snapdragon. But its ok.
kumusta mga peeps? N910C here from globe
910C here too none branded.
was hoping for the snapdragon but now after a few months with exynox....wow its damn nice
rooted + deodexed + xposed + sound boost + density change + custom mods (by me)....LOVE IT
I got the N9100 duo HK version. Bought it in Greenhills at P32K, very satisfied with its performance. Only problem is that I can't find a spare battery kit to buy. Di kasi pareho battery nya with the single Sim. I will just buy it in HK or China in March.

Hey guys!
Do you think it's too late for me to buy the galaxy note n7000 (international version)?
I know that the N7100 (Galaxy Note 2) has been released and will launch mid-October~mid-November..
It even has pre-orders started on UK sites such as clove.co.uk and handtec.co.uk
I'm just wondering if you think it's a waste of money to buy the n7000 right now as opposed to paying 200 more dollars and buying the N7100.
I did the math and the Note n7000 in brand new is $540 at expansys-usa.com
and the Note 2 N7100 in brand new is $740 at clove.co.uk, handtec.co.uk...
Do you think I should go with the original or the new one?
ALSO!!!!!
******Do you guys know if the original note N7000 will have an update along with Jellybean such as the airview, new camera update and other features from the N7100?
I think u should wait for note 2 if u have more money better hardwear and yes note 1 wilk have jelly bean update i think in nov likr in a month and half so its all ur choice
Development-wise, I'd say go for the original note. If you look at our forum here, we have ripe roms, kernels, mods, and tweaks what not that are sure to cater to everyone's tastes. That, plus It'll take a while for development to start with the note2. And if you'll have a look at azrienoch's latest vid, (if what he says does come through, which I really do hope does not) things aren't so rosy.

the new note won't get airview and won't get camera updates making it faster cause there are hardware improvements required for those updates.. You better buy the note 2
if you ask me this is just the right time to buy note if you find with reasonable price. because note just got a decent rom LRT. has enough hardware power and versus note 2 for me i prefer 1280 * 800 over 1280 * 720. but dont forget my reasonable price requirement. here in Turkey they still sell it from 880 USD.

if money is not an issue, I'd say you go for the Note 2. Clearly... it has all the best and right features that the original one has yet to get. Hardware wise.. the original one isn't even comparable enough (we'll unless you overclock it, but still.. it has a limitation to it). Software part.. the new Note 2 has the official stock TW JB 4.1 installed already... Something that all of us here using the original one is still yearning to use and experience. Yeah there are a lot of custom JB Roms out there... but nothing still beats the official JB that Samsung has released already for the new Note.
So yeah, Go for the Note 2.. that is the best recommendation I can offer you.
P.S. Don't ask for any ETA updates when Samsung will release the official JB, co'z it's anybody's guess when they're going to release it. It might be this next month.. or next year.. who knows.....
Its already been launced in India y'day and estore price $758 (offering free bluetooth headset)
But usally in open market you should get 15-20 $ less to it.
Indian user may get some benefit by raising Rs value to $ since 1wk, i think its at least 2.5Rs / $ in last 5 days. ultimately make cheaper Rs1500 or more.
Back to topic
In my point of view, Note 2 is worth to spend 200$ extra
I agree, You should ideally hang out for the Note 2 if you can afford it
Thats not to say the Note 1 is becoming obsolete ! The Note 1 is still an awesome device with plenty of life left in it.
And if you can get it for a great price, then you wouldnt regret it !
Im going to get the Note 2 and give the Note 1 to my misses. (she thinks she's getting the Note 2 because its her time for a renewal ! my my my, How wrong is she ! lol )
It's too early to buy the N7000. After the launch of the N7100 prices N7000 will decline significantly. If $ 200 is not a problem I would advise to buy N7100.
I got my Galaxy Note 2 weeks ago and very happy with it, The reason I didn't wait for the Note II is that I don't really need all the new features of the Note II.
As I said before my Note serves all my needs and also the new apps added in the latest ICS 4.0.4 makes the Note alot better and smoother.
At the end it is personal preferences.
Regards

The Note is still worth it's money. If the Note 2 is too expensive for you then go for a Note. You won't be disappointed.

Right
Once jellybean will added to note 1, then you can't say 200$ is worth to pay for note 2.

For me the only disadvantage of the Note is the burn in problem. And that has not been solved with the Note 2. Ok there is quad core, nfc and lte. I don't need those but I cannot speak for you.

You seems from India. Do you know even what is a Chinese phone/mobile?. You need to distinguish between Chinese Mobiles on 2 terms :-
1. Mobiles made in China
2. Mobiles quality wise Chinese.
In first case, India has 99% mobiles made in China. Days of Finland, Russia or Germany is over. There is a slight low performance due to cheapness comparing to those countries manufacturing process, but it doesn't mean "Made in China" is not good. Samsung's Galaxy is also "Made in China".
2. Quality wise Chinese is what one should not buy. Here you are confused and interchanging the quality line.

Only Chinese phones are more prone to battery exploding, i saw many cases.
And the latest phones from Chinese Gionee, has very bad reviews on quality even on high-end phones

So you are one of them whose Nokia 5BL-C battery got exploded? Then dont buy any Mobile in India coz all of them are now made in China. From Samsung to Nokia, LG to Apple all, yes you heard it all are "Made in China". Fortunately, you have a last way. Get a flight to Saudi Arabia and buy mobile in zareer book store. They have products "Made in not China". Happy Hajj

Any guesses about price
Should be around 58 k
Well if they wanna stay and track and dont want their note 4 to face the same situation as S5.. They must price it for 42k max.. And a sd 805 is a must.. But exynos is better too
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Doesn't seem a much awaited upgrade to the note 3,Samsung could have thrown in all the hardware and really gone for the kill.Slight larger screen,64bit processor,larger battery,4gb ram,Metal and probably a new design.
If anything now they wanna do,is to keep the price around 45,000rs
Happy with Note 3.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 using XDA app.
A5777, smartphone market is saturated enough, no oem can give big upgrades in a few months time, the phone already has metal and better design than previous versions, note 3 users may not find it substantial but for the rest of the world it's worth every penny. Hope they keep the price reasonable
Lets not blame nd find faults wid the SoC dis time... Lets b happy whateva version v get nd discuss how to improve the user experience in either of the versions...
Sme of the features of S-pen r quite useful coz thts wht a pen is supposed to do... Whereas the gimmicks on the fone continue... Ram needed to b upgraded...
well we getting a 64 bit SOC exynos with 4g LTE... this is what I have heard..
and yep exynos is better than SD always.. just cause of less samsung documentation and half baked sources exynos fails....
but for a normal user both the SOCs are awesome

There wasn’t much buzz about Samsung Galaxy
Note 4 in India except among geeks and rich
people. After all the Samsung Galaxy Note series
is usually very overpriced and there isn’t anything
very innovative about the phone to make it worth
its price. Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is not too
different but it does seem to have some not so
useful yet very cool features that might just make
spending the humongous amount seem cool if not
worthwhile.
Samsung says that the Note 4 will be available
globally in October in four colours -- Black,
White, Pink and Gold. Sources within Samsung
said that India was likely to be among the first
countries where the Note 4 would go on sale.
For now there is no word on the price of the
device but we expect it to cost around Rs
50,000.

To back it up...ppl in india shell 50k or more for tiny iPhone. ...this year's note 4 with new s pen looks more promising if it's slightly less than 50k
Can anybody confirm if note 4 will support LTE India ( band 40 Td 2300 mhz ) .. curious as I can use it now as a trial run in india and LTE would be officially avail pan india by december ...

If you're looking to use it for more than 2 years I'd get the Z5. Note 4s tend to die around the 2 year mark.

hello ,
Just wanted to check what price our dear users have bought Note 9 for in 2019 .
I purchased in June 10th 2019 for USD449 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 black with 6gb RAM , 128 GB rom.
I think this prices is justified as its similar to Old One Plus 6T in my region .
what about you guys ?
i was previously using Note 5 - single sim , Exynos - 64 GB rom , 4GB ram .
That is a steal!
USD646 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 blue with 8gb RAM , 512gb rom.
There's a midnight black exynos that's a bit above $500 that I'm keeping an eye on. I'm waiting until next week before I may pull the trigger on it. Just to have a fresh Note 9 to extend my Note 9 experience seeing the design direction Samsung are moving towards. Note 9 for me for the next few years, more than likely.
In europe they are still more expensive. Bought my black 128 6gb last week for €549

I'm also enjoying my SD variant with Pie. It's much smoother and better battery life than the exynos model which I had a few months ago.
