Question S Pen for S21 Ultra 5g in India - Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

Hi,
Is S Pen for S21 Ultra 5g already launched in India? I have tried Online and offline at Samsung Stores. No one have it. They don't even know its price and availability. Even when contacted Samsung care online, same, they also don't know price and availability. On the other hand Samsung India website is showing product. I need S Pen with silicon cover. Does anyone know from where in India I can buy it and what is the price?

Does your note 9 fit in your Gear VR?

So I was setting up my VR stuff this morning and for the life of me I can't get the note 9 to stay put in the Gear VR. It goes in in works but I can't close it into place. And that's before my Dbrand and me Dome screen protector which I have yet to install.
Can anyone with a Gear VR let me know if they're able to use it? I just need to know if I'm a one off before I bring it to Samsung.
No, it doesn't fit. There is supposed to be an adapter but samsung seem to have no idea when it will be available
I Have the 2016 gear vr. I had to very slightly modify the corners with a dremel and it fits fine now.

You could also use a peice of 80 grit sand paper possibly. Amazon sells cheap rotary tools like https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003BYRFH8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_IDQGBbZPY35ED
I only had to remove small amount of material at each corner. The phone locks into position and works great now.

That's what he told me.
I have the Gear VR that came out just after the Note 8 and can confirm it does work with my Note 9. The USB connector on the VR is a little tighter but once you have pushed it in as far as it will go it works fine.

The joys of dealing with Samsung's customer service... Smh.

See what you did there ???? I have to agree with you there. Samsung reps never know what the hell is going on. If Samsung Canada and Samsung US merged to make a Samsung North America it might actually work in our favor but who am I kidding?????
Mine fits fine. It's a tad tighter on the connector but fits well for me.

Had a same nasty surprise when finally got my phone. Rang Samsung UK and free adapter should be on its way
Yeah I had no problem ordering an adapter from Sammy UK. Just had to provide proof of purchase as I bought from cpw
Verge confirmed Samsung is giving the adapter for free.

Had anyone bought from eBay?

Just wondering if anyone has bought the S10 from eBay and who did you buy from?
Also which version did you buy?
I’ve never bought anything expensive as this from eBay and the discounted prices seem to scare me in regards legitimatcy.

It should concern you. I would suggest a lot of research of the seller, paying with a means that gives you some protection such as PayPal or credit card, the sellers return policy, and more than 1 persons good experience with the seller.
Just ask yourself this:
Is it worth buying the phone at a sketchy price that could possibly end up being a clone or scam one week before legitimate versions are available in stores?

I've purchased a number of Galaxy devices from a Houston based seller, best pricing, fast delivery and great customer service.

Yep, well established Seller! I think they sold over 2,000 Note 9's....
That isn't a huge discounted price so I would feel better about that seller than one that's cutting a lot of dollars off the price. That's only 60 or 70 dollars off what Amazon sells it for with an included SD card.

I purchased and already received my Galaxy S10e, SM-G970F/DS from the same seller mentioned. Included an SD card was likely a Latin American model or something because it booted up in Spanish. Otherwise, it's been fantastic and I've been using it since yesterday. Located in the US and running smoothly on Mint Mobile. Bought for just shy of $700
My concern is that these devices haven't even been released in the US yet and this seller is selling them for $100 less than the MSRP. Also, the fact they are supposedly an international model, yet are coming with a US power adapter? Lastly, this appears to be the phones everythingapplepro used on YouTube for his drop test and it broke quite easily, faster than most expected with cornings gorilla glass 6. Not saying these phones are not legitimate, but I have a bit of reservation on them being consistent with Samsung's released product due to the above concerns. If they are legitimate, fantastic deal at that rate.

I think this identical phone with a bundled SD card is only 60 or 70 bucks more on Amazon. Of course there won't be a warranty on the international version purchased in the US.

Yeah, I see that on Amazon. However, it is from a 3rd party seller which is consistent with these eBay phones being discussed, not officially sold by Amazon. I am keeping my official Samsung preorder to be sure. I'm a bit curious to see other drop/durability tests and other YouTube reviews once the official retail units ship out next week.
Also, something to note, the 128gb SD cards are also included with these eBay models we are discussing. Comes with an SD card in the box, clear case (which was rumored early on in the leaks) and a US wall charger.

Don't fall for the superficial benchmarks around, we still don't know why people avoid posting battery tests involving the SnapD, also it's permanently bootloader-locked and some updates never get to it.
Anyway don't buy from eBay, Samsung doesn't manage those sales, you get no pre-order bonus, your warranty might be forged and it definitely doesn't look legitimate when some unknown third-party seller puts their hands on pre released devices, selling them for about 10% less than the release price, delivering faster than Samsung itself.
The bonus buds alone are worth more than any eBay deal could save you, and if anything happens with an official pre-order you have legal power, stick to Samsung, Amazon or other officially recognised shops that respect the pre-order plans.

I have dealt with 'Never-MSRP' for the majority of my recent purchases; Samsung or not. I highly recommend them.
See my 'Device History':
S7 Edge (G935FD)
Note 8 256GB (N950N)
Mi A1 (MDG2)
Note 8 (N950FD)
Mi A2 (1M1804D2SG)
Note 9 (N960FD)
ALL Never-MSRP.
They have willingly accepted any and all returns with full refunds OR exchanges (provided the returns met their guidelines; which all my returns did).
I've had nothing but positive experience with them as well... If I buy on eBay I will buy from them before considering another seller

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 ,
Sent from my A3_Pro using Tapatalk
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 Germany - no case in box. Also the buds didn't come with the package. Presuming they might 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.

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?

Is there any accessories currently available?

Hi this is my first rog phone, just wondering if there are any accessories currently available for the rog phone 3, as I can't seem to find any. On their website it shows the accessories, but no place to buy them from. Is there a website somewhere? I live in Australia but willing to pay the postage. Thanks.
(I currently own the phone, but where i bought the phone from doesn't have any accessories even for the previous phones.)

General [INDIA] Galaxy S21 Ultra news, pre-order, offers etc. discussion thread.

Too early to believe, but Samsung Opera House(Bengaluru) has started taking blind prebooking for the Galaxy S21 series already as per THIS article.
Unsurprisingly India would get the Exynos 2100 SoC in this series and I just hope it performs on par with Snapdragon 888.
Why would they make the screen smaller for the s21 ultra than the existing one ? No one seems to have mentioned this.
yeah its only .100" smaller, too me that`s not a big thing for me, but the thing is it will have the LTPO display which I guess is supposed to give better contrast to black colors, also I`m not sure but i have heard talk of the fingerprint reader being 2x faster...... so well see, I`ll be ordering one in the unlocked in black the 512gb version
In the USA you can register for your S21 in the Samsung Shop app. Looks like you get an extra $70 store credit for registering. Can't wait to get the S21 ultra!

The thing I like about Samsung out here in India is that with perks of cashbacks & coupons(if prebooked) the pricing becomes eqivalent to the USA pricing(has been so far) ..
I'm finding the news [email protected] S21 series interesting too. Will get "Exynos" but highly it feels like it would be on par this time around, if not better, excluding the GPU.
I seriously hope the LTPO on the S21 series is far more superior to the one on Note 20U.
I had serious banding/green tint issues and a horrible battery drain problem due to it. The 60fps video recording also had hunting issues even with laser auto focus.
I'm back to S20U, the display feels a lot more stable and a long lasting battery.

We're coming from S10+ getting the Ultra cause of the specs and my husband likes the camera features. It'll probably be to big for me but I am getting it. We won't upgrade for a while so I want the best of the bunch.
Do you think there will be any discounts with pricing if you don't trade in? I have a S9+ right now and am waffling back and forth between getting the S21 Ultra or getting a Note 20 Ultra ($800 thru work).
Have pre-reserved for S21 series because I thought we'd get the Buds Pro and Smart tag as preorder offers alongwith the free case. That is what the leakers had said a few days back but not it seems Buds Pro won't be part of the offer. Also coupled with missing charger and possible missing SD card and extra charges for SPen, will it be worth spending so much extra to sell my Note 20 U for the S21U?
P.S. The only reason I was willing to upgrade was because my Note 20 U is getting heated up a lot + because of the Exynos 2100 finally catching up to SD.

You got the VIP pass for the next Galaxy after you pre reserved it?
In India prebooking is of no use, last time for the Note 20U the cashback and freebies were offered even to customers who did not prebook and bought the phone well after the prebook purchase window. (craze for flagships in India are at an all time low, thanks to OnePlus and Samsung themselves).
Also the Note 20U was up in the corporate program with 5% discount in a matter of few days including the 9k cashback and freebies.
I will get the S21U only during the first week of Feb.
I'm expecting the price to be around 90k for S21U 256gig, anything more than that, I might as well wait for Z flip 2/3 later in April.

No I didn't get any VIP pass. Was I supposed to? If I don't like what I see tomorrow, I am going to just refund my ₹2000 and wait for Feb/March to buy it. The only thing keeping me from the flip/fold is that the camera is always a generation behind in these devices.
I for one, do no find these "pre-registering"(or any other name) hulabaloos fascinating at all given that it's a Samsung flagship.
Irrespective of card/cash or other payment methods, I've been getting Samsung flagships on the very 1st day of market release buying from small retailers for a much lower price than the price quoted by bigger retailers or the biggest retailers with a fixed price or buying directly from Samsung online or offline for quite sometime now. The cost everytime turns out to be the lowest this way in comparison to the cost combined with any other CC/DC cashbacks/corporate offers/exchange offers/finance schemes etc... you name it.
Samsung tends(or "pretends" to be precise) to be strict with such retailers but being consumers all we need is a genuinely sourced product and a proper invoice. It makes sense because once we want to sell it later, the resale value will not at all differ based on which store we bought it from.
+
In my case, prebooking offers are always applicable in the first place as one or the other re-seller does pre-booking taking the required credentials after me getting bombarded with calls soon after official announcement of the flagship.

Smaller retailer like non Samsung but authorized dealers like Sangeetha Mobiles, Chroma, Reliance Digital?
By how much you get a discount on the selling price, I have never tried this as I always get it from the Samsung Cafe.
I kinda feel awkward asking for a discount in Samsung Cafes

No not those big formats, they don't as they don't need to and they can't either. Smart cafés can but they will not.
Instead, approach a few small multibrand players if you have time for it. They need flagship buyers to stay alive in the eyes of big brands for their own promotion/survival and to do so, they let go of it for extremely thin margins.
I happened to purchase two N20U units costing 90k each from two diff. sellers(when it was 1st released) - that's one example.

No I didn't get any VIP pass. Was I supposed to? If I don't like what I see tomorrow, I am going to just refund my ₹2000 and wait for Feb/March to buy it. The only thing keeping me from the flip/fold is that the camera is always a generation behind in these devices.

Thatz true, the cameras on the flip and fold were bad.
Since we do not have a Note 21 this year, hope flip and fold are equipped with better camera system.

AFAIK, Samsung smart cafe franchises actually get the highest profit margins for each product they sell compared to other resellers. And it's the marketing skills and subsequent illusions created by the staff that make one feel awkward to ask for a discount.... Nope? The one running the franchise CAN give big discounts, but doesn't want to. They actually ended up giving me discounts a few times in the past but then I stopped visiting them lately as altogether I don't find it worth it.
