SM-N950F (international) variant on Amazon USA - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Does anybody know of any news on the availability of this model on Amazon USA? I see the Snapdragon version on there but am only interested in the exynos version. Anybody know how long it took the s8 international version to show up for Amazon US?
Thank you

link please. still don't find it.

It usually takes a little longer for the Fs and FDs to show up on (US) Amazon while the Snaps are there as soon as pre-ordering starts. I got my note 7 on Amazon just a few days before it released and it was one of the first to show up, there were a few before but they were stupid expensive. With the 8 the same thing went down but in that case I decided to take a pass on it.

Anyone Pre-order a Galaxy Tab S From AT&T?

I pre-ordered an 8.4 and it's due to ship September 23. I've been salivating over the Tab S ever since the WiFi models dropped a couple of months ago. Just a few more days and the wait is finally over!
I just pre ordered after playing with the tab s 8.4 at bestbuy... Excited!!!
I don't understand "Pre-ordering"
So let me get this straight. Manufacturers want us to pay now for something they are not even selling yet. They want to take our money now but not actually give us anything for it until later. All for the "privilege" of owning it a few days before other people. Does that about sum it up?
I fully understand why the manufacturers like this arrangement. Get the money now and deliver later makes great sense for them. To me though, it makes absolutely no sense for the consumer.
Every time I watch the iSheep line up outside an Apple Store I think: "So what? Are they going to run out? Actually they might if you feel you must have one the first day (though I fail to see the practical advantage of that - they will keep making them after all). If I wait until next week will I not be able to buy one (hint: Yes I will be able to buy one next week)? Will they say, no you did not pre-order or stand in line all night so you don't get one?" I sort of doubt that will happen. They will still want my money next week. In fact, wait a little longer (for anything that's not an "i" product) and the price will actually go down.

If you continually wait for a lower price or the new device that's just around the corner, you'll never own anything. I pre-ordered because I could. I've been waiting for an LTE Galaxy Tab S ever since the WiFi models launched 3 months ago. I pre-ordered so that I can save myself the 20 minute drive to my closest AT&T corporate store and instead have my tablet shipped to my house and have it a couple of days early. There is no premium to be paid for pre-ordering. Sure, you're giving them money before you get the device, but there's no risk there. You'll get your device.

Or you could just get it from Amazon with (typically) free two day shipping. No 20 minute drive required and (also typically) notably cheaper than getting the device elsewhere. For example, a Verizon Galaxy s5 phone is currently $199 with contract direct from Verizon but $79.99 on Amazon.

You can't buy the AT&T version on Amazon right now, nor will you until some 3rd party seller decides to sell them. Sometimes they're cheaper, sometimes they aren't. There are sellers on Amazon selling the international LTE models, but those are useless to me because they don't work with US LTE bands. What works for you works for you. Pre-ordering works for me. All good.
Also, your example of the VZW Galaxy S5 is pointless in my situation because I don't buy devices on contract. Amazon doesn't compete on full retail price.

They actually don't get the money until the item ships just like any other purchase. You're only reserving a device or place in line if you will. I have to admit thou I enjoy the "privilege" of owning a few days early as most on this site do.

I want to pre-order, but I am going to wait until a few days before the Galaxy Note 4 release. I am hoping there will be a bundle deal with the Phone and Tablet. I will probley buy on the 5th of October so that I an return if a bundle happens.
So, do you have it in hand yet? How bad is the ATT bloat? Samsung bloat is bad enough (I have a Note 10 with a load disabled), but the tablets are nice. I'm waiting on the Nexus 9 for comparison, but interested in an ~8" tab by the end of the year.

Anyone receive their AT&T model yet? Does it have the Snapdragon or Exynos processor?
Mine is due Saturday (tomorrow). Will report back once I get it. I was able to verify that the Sprint Tab S 10.5 has a Snapdragon, though.
It seems like only Sprint/Verizon got the Snapdragon. AT&T lists the Exynos Octa on their website.
Damn.
Got mine yesterday. Can't wait for it to be rooted. It is a quadcore. Not the octocore.
EDIT: I was wrong it is Octo

well...the POSSIBLE good news is that the current root method SHOULD still work with the gsm version as well as my SuperSamsung rom. So which ever one of u brave souls will be bold enough to test that please report back with your results....i'm assuming that the phone is disabled which means no calls on the ATT tab as it always is with every other samsung device? If so then i have created a modem thread which MAY help us out with that so once again whoever attempts to root would also need to flash that (link below)....if either of u guys locate an odin package for the ATT version (sprint/verizon too but for other purposes) then PLEASE provide me a link oh and if ANYONE figued out how to get this tablet to flash with heimdall a lil help would DEFINITELY be appreciated. Hopefully we wont run into locked bootloaders on the SM-T707A (could one of u please confirm if this is the correct/exact model number)...if i find out that flashing the brazillian radio will in fact enable voice with LTE bands then i will throw my T705 in the bushes in a heartbeat :laugh:

^USA LTE & TALK THREAD
I don't think that CDMA has anything to do with it. I think it's more a question of size. The 10.5" LTE Tab S has a Snapdragon while the 8.4" LTE Tab S retains the Exynos. Why? I have no clue. An easy way to see if I'm right would be to see what T-Mobile's 10.5 has when it launches. If it too has a Snapdragon, then I think it's safe to say it's based on size.

Note 4 - Canadian Thread

So far we've been left in the dark as to the release day and price of the Note 4 but here is all the information that I have so far.
Pre-order Info:
Samsung Stores (Brick and Mortar) are doing a "pre-order" where you can either stop in or call and leave your information and which color of phone you want. When they get either a demo model or the actual phones to sell (my guess is the former), they'll contact you so you can have a look and secure your pre-order. My guess is that at this point they may require a deposit but I'm not 100% sure on that, neither was the person I spoke with.
Best Buy and Future Shop are also doing a pre-order where you have to put $50 down and you can save 20% off an accessory when the phone comes in. This is in store only. Scroll down a bit to see the advert, and it doesn't mention the $50 deposit online however it said that in the flyer.
BB http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/categor...spx?path=b364a01690d452db534a54a7b0c62a26en01
FS http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/cate...spx?path=a432f45c3e0aad5c68a07dead707b842en01
Costco
I spoke with someone at Wireless Etc. which is located in Costco stores and he said that they had training on Oct. 7 for the Note 4 and that he presumed it would be an Oct. 17 launch day however nothing for the launch date had been confirmed.

Expansys.ca will ship "no later than Thursday" of you want to give them all your money. Apparently.
Don't
Before giving them 1000$+ be sure the model # is sm-n910w8 or else you will be very disappointed.

Ok, so I just confirmed that Expansys.ca ships the Exynos version.

You'd better double-check, maybe triple-check, because they told me it was Exynos first, then said:

I know, I find it completely ridiculous that so many of us WANT to spend our money on their phones, but it's so god damn difficult. My brother wanted an iPhone 6, he got it no problem. Me? Wait several weeks after launch and still don't get a price or delivery date... then have to find loopholes to get an unlocked phone without selling my right arm in the process.
Yo, Sammy! I've got money, so let me spend it! :victory:
Well have you seen how the iphone 6 launch was rushed. All the iOS 8 problems and iphone 6 issues. Samsung want to keep those problems as minimal as possible. The wait is going to be worth it

It sucks too because I am in the position where renewing on a 2 year contract and losing my amazingly cheap 6GB plan would cost me more in the long run then buying the phone out right.
So I will be buying mine in full (hopefully not outrageously priced).
I find it ridiculous that they don't allow us to buy an unlocked clean from carrier bloat version off their website, however there is way if you live in Vancouver lol. In the Metrotown mall there is our 1 and only Samsung store in Canada and you can get the phones from there and I believe they are unlocked but you half to walk in to get them >_<
However unlocking a carrier one isn't a big deal anymore, because of the new CRTC ruling the carriers half to give you unlock codes if you want them and its limited to a max price of $50, but you can simply go to one of those 3rd party cell unlocking sites and get the Samsung unlock codes for your phone for $30 which is what I've always done to unlock my phones from Bell.
What bothers me too is that some places won't even sell a no term Note 4. I understand with the iPhone that Apple bars the selling of no term phones for 3 months because they want customers to come directly to them. However with Samsung it's different as there are not nearly as many Samsung stores as Apple stores and no matter what you can't buy the phone unlocked from Samsung it had to be liked to a carrier. They need to offer the phone through their online store and retail stores unlocked, it's as simple as that. Whether they ever smarten is another story.
The same goes for their launches, take a page out of Apple's book and have everything ready and 2 weeks out at most after the initial release party. Also they need to have prices when they do the unveiling. For all of us here it will be delayed gratification as we're getting the phone we know we want. But what about the how many other people out there that didn't want to wait and are now owning a new 6+. They may have the (imo) inferior device but they also didn't give Samsung a dime. People want things now at least in North America and are not willing to wait.
What does everyone think the Note 4 will cost? Same price as last year? I can't think off hand if the dollar has changed much in they last year which would bump our costs up. American pricing seems the same as last year I believe so maybe $750?
So it looks like it's Oct. 17 for Canada http://mobilesyrup.com/2014/10/01/samsungs-galaxy-note-4-to-arrive-in-canada-on-october-17/
It's funny because I had just talked to 2 Telus stores, and one said either the 4th or 14th and the other said their was a dealer forum happening on the 9th so it would be just before our after that.
Still no pricing yet.

All the Canadian Note 4 firmware's have been released on Samsung's Kies firmware update servers, Sammobile has them downloaded already for anyone who wish to get them as well. This is good news for us as Samsung Canada has a habit of making sure the firmware's are pre-available close to a release date to make sure that things go smoothly and on the off chance something needs to be reinitialized the full firmware is there for repair/recovery.
So with this our version of the phone should be just around the corner ^_^ , lets hope for no delays!

What model from what region did you get? Most likely though you do not have the LTE access with the imported phone or only 2600MHz band in select few citys which isn't very good.

Often outside of North America a lot of phones firmware's will use the term 4G for H+ (because of a technicality) and then for LTE they will show it as 4GLTE or just LTE.
You should be able to find more information on what the phone is using in the About section.
Thats not the case. It switches between 4G and H+. I use slingplayer everynight on my commute home. There is always minimum 4 spots where the video cuts out for at least 30 seconds each time. Tonight, my first with this device, never happened once. Also the clarity of the pictures and colour was bar far better than any other device ive used. My last 3 devices were Note 3, Z2 and LG G 3. Suggest somewhere for me to do a speed test and ill post results tomorrow.
Hope this info helps people.

Nexus 6 available again from Motorola.com | New revision or updated somehow?

Hi guys,
now the Nexus 6 is available again on Motorola.com after a long time i wonder, if the devices of this batch maybe have a new hardware revision. I am thinking about new batteries, new adhesive for the backplate etc. as examples.
Would be interesting to know if Motorola has reacted on the production/quality problems some users had with their device...
The long delay between the availability of the phone makes me think that. It was out of stock for more than one month at Motorola´s web store. One month for tweaking some things, maybe..??
Doubt it.
wasnt out of stock in tbe US that long, has been available through Motorola for some time now.

Everytime I checked the 64gb nexus 6 was not available on Motorola website for a very long time - several weeks.
I finally ordered one and it is now sitting at fedex waiting on the snow to clear out and I have to sit here waiting on it.
Mine is one of the new ones that will make my breakfast every morning and do my daily exercises for me. You folks that bought the previous version are out of luck! Although I am sitting here wondering if I should have opted for the mate 7, which makes breakfast & lunch.

Note 9 United States Thread (Rumours, pricing and order updates for all carriers)

Hey all its that time of year again where we get all excited about the new note phone here in the greater United States.
Feel free to post All US based news and preorder Info etc.
Are you jumping on board, which phone are you coming from what features made you switch or upgrade.
For myself I have had nearly every note since the first one. I currently have the 8.
Here's hoping the ninth edition is something special
$1,250 for the 8GB version. That is rough, man. IDK that I'll do that.
It's a no for me.

That's the other issue. I don't want to have to buy an S-Pen, because I don't want to be writing with the banana in the phone. I do use cases, but I use clear slim cases, and I don't want a ridiculous blue or purple phone.

Yes, she said she was able to give me that price bc of my long standing account. I was like it should of been bc of JOD bc that's the reason we it.
Just got off the phone with 2 reps that aren't even willing to pull up my account when I mention JOD. Both first tell that it's not eligible for JOD then tell me it's $280 what even pulling my account up. I'll just call tomorrow. Hopefully I can speak with someone who knows what's going on. Thanks for the response.
Here is a ss
Kinda surprised they are not offering the 512gb micro so card as a gift. Dont need the headphones. Also curious about color choice. I might play the wait and see game. I really like the 512gb model, and blue reminds me of both my note 7's . I will get the unlocked version tho, best thing I ever did with the note 8 was going unlocked.

Does this mean they might be shipping soon? When I ordered the s8 plus and Note 8 from them they didn't charge me until they were getting ready to send the phones out.

Case in box

Ive seen a lot of unboxing videos and most were international models that all came with a case, so I just want to know if the USA model will come with a case included?
From what I've heard just international has case included ,

Can someone confirm that the international/Europe s10 will have a case in the box. Have seen it as well in some unboxing vids. But have not found any confirmation on the retail box shipping since yesterday.
Will get mine hopefully next week. Eager to know if i have to spend more time searching for a case like crazy to have my investment safe at least in the beginning.
Haven't dropped a phone in a long time but I know I will first day with a new phone especially without a case.

I did not get a case with mine. You should check the retailers page about what is included in the box. At least here in Finland they specify what is included in the box and a case is not on the list.

Thx for the info. I ordered from Amazon in germany, living in austria. Haven't seen any info of a case on the product website. At least I will not have to wait that long to see.
But as I don't see any info of any case in the box in Europe I guess it's not included.

In India we get a pre applied screen protector and a clear hard plastic case.
In Germany - no case in box. Also the buds didn't come with the package. Presuming they might later on.

Did you order on Amazon?
For the buds. I read have to register in some samsung app. Only available for preorderd devices. Then you get the buds sent later on.

I ordered on the German Samsung website, so their own online shop. The order in the online shop says it's in preparation but I already received the phone on 6th of March, so before the launch. The buds are mentioned on the order but no info about status.
I've got my phone within a contract with Vodafone Germany.
The ear buds need to be ordered in the Samsung Members app, there you have to register your device including a scan / copy of the invoice.
In my box there wasn't a case and I really don't know why manufacturers are packing different boxes for each country. It's not Samsung only, Huawei does the same and it's kinda annoying that they do this.
I'm often on international English speaking tech sites where they post stuff like "there's a case in the box" or "the S10 will have the SD855" and when it comes to the release here in Germany all hopes and expectations are getting blown away.
I'm glad that Samsung put a screen protector on the phone even for Germany.
Latin America version, no case but instead was bundled with a 128 GB SD card.

I noticed that bundle on some of the International phones selling on Ebay.
S10 from Philippines, comes with a free case
So just got it few hours ago. Surprisingly the dual sim variant. But that's OK
But no case in the box. Ordered from amazon.de sent to Austria.
Sadly almost none of the good cases sold on Amazon will ship to Austria.
Does anyone know any good site to buy cases?
