How's the service with Expansis? I live in the USA.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
I have had good experiences with expansys.com.au, and they appear to have the same source as .co.uk. Having said that, my Note came from HK. Maybe the UK ones do too?
I bought mine from Expansys.se. Ordered it at 15:00 last Monday, got it 11 the day after and they sent it from France!!! Not even Swedish companies usually delivers that fast inside Sweden so I am impressed Cant talk about support because never have been froced to use it
The EU Note I got was delivered with a productcode from Austria.

Very good. I had no problem with delivery or returns when previously (for other items) requested.
Amazon are ReAlly helpful, but wondering whether there is screen issue with their current 16gb stock, as I've had to return 3. I may be wrong and just very unlucky though...

It is not that big deal when using it you wont notice it. Just when displaying completely grey screen as seen in Market sometimes. But I dont use my phone to look for errors When using it for daily things I am not bothered at all. There is no "perfect" phone - always some compromise

Videos are not a problem for me either. iron man 2 video clip is fine. Had 3 16gig phones on which clipping made it totally unwatchable. There are lots of unacceptable batches,out their still. If I were U, I'd maybe wait a couple months b4 buying ...to see whether Samsung do something 'radical' and address the issue. My rationale for buying the 32GB, was that it was released later, came from different batch and therefore maybe might have less issues. I struck lucky.

It's not hard at all, if you are in Europe. In addition to the aforementioned Expansys, ditech.at has been selling them for quite a while and there doesn't seem to be any shortage of stock, and at a better price BTW...

It is hard in US, but then again, they are just releasing the Note in a few days here, after it's been available for months essentially all over the world

Hi, have you managed, or at least tried, to root it?
I would like to understand if the rooting methods which work for the 16GB version also work for the 32GB one.
Also, could you please elaborate a bit more on the screen issue you mentioned in your other post? Is it a problem with the Note per se or just a faulty batch?
Thanks!
I have 32GB white it has 2600 mAh while i think 16GB has 2500 mAh
I think its better because you can put a lot of apps and heavy games GPS offline maps plus you can add 64GB micro SD = 96GB - 6GB system =90GB.
Myself i waited so long till it arrived to my country which is worth the waiting to be honest i hate 16GB internal storage i don't know why Samsung didn't just make all SGN 32GB.

Do you mind checking the CSC on your phone: *#272*imei# ?
Just curious, because any 32GB Notes that I've seen or heard being mentioned so far seem to originate from Austria (and appear to be made in China: Made by Samsung).

In Phx. Just got mine this afternoon, $310, my monthly ended up staying the same, only one year contact addition, it's great, quite the upgrade from my sensation. Buttery is right. The screen is nice and bright. Love it.

Just got one of these (without cover) for free It's nice.

Anyone else get one of these? I'm wondering how much grip the case provides or is the matte finish fairly slick?
I am waiting for mine to come in the mail from mobilefun.com. Its due any day.

The official has dropped in price in most outlets. I'd sooner pay a bit more for the official one.
Now if the Chinese copy was a different design or style, now that would have piqued my interest.

yes but its twice the price even when price dropped
Not bad but I would rather stick with the original which you can get for $35 on amazon. They should have done something different with this knockoff version. I don’t like the LLC written in the band and not sure if its due to the pictures or what but it doesn’t seem as visible as the original. I would however like to see a review on this thou.
From the inside case image, it seems missing the chip set. I wonder it will working it not.
I bought one. Hopefully its not too bad.

i hope you make review when you receive it
20 bucks for a copy is still to much
This went up on ebay today http://www.ebay.com/itm/151362252934
Looks pretty nice. A little worried that it doesn't show any pics of it with the phone but whatever its covered by ebay's guarantee and after buying a pouch for my phone i had some extra and thought "why not?" Hopefully it comes soon and I can tell you all if it works well or not.
mheera clearly is the seller and is just advertising it here. He/she didn't 'Find' anything. 18.88 is still way overpriced for a replica.
Is it possible that you can buy 2 Note8 and still get the $425.00 for both of them? Or you can only buy one Note8 with Note7 Users Discount?

My guess is just one. But you never know until you ask. Call Samsung and see what they say.

Just use another email. I had two Note7's previously, and used my wife's email (same credit card for both) to get two $425 discounts. Also picked up two iPhone5's for $80 each so I can even keep my S7 Edges or ebay them as well.
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.

So I called ubreakifix and they had no idea what I was talking about. Called Samsung again. Call got escalated. 3rd John I spoke to gave me an email address and asked me to send my proof of purchase and they'll be in touch in one or 2 days. 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.
