What if i get it shipped from UK? (Clove or Expansys)
Does Nexus have MHL support?
Is it Plastic Body or Metal?

it supports MHL, Body is Plastic with some metal to make it solid(i think)

Waiting eagerly for an Indian launch date.

imo u will wait 4 atleast 3-4 months. i m an indian n currently in us, returning on nov 20th, so i will buy 4m the us, unlocked.

Hardware Change?
Will there be a change in hardware for indian version of Galaxy Nexus?

I don't think so that there will be any change in hardware of Galaxy Nexus for Indian version. Indians may get the device in some were early next year.

Didn't Samsung release SGSII quite early for Indians or is that just an illusion? And generally Indian phones are same as world wide GSM ones.

Hardware Change: LTE Radio
Those phones which are going to be released in the stateside will carry LTE 4G radio, whereas it is not required in our country, we do not have even consistent 3G signal even in our cities.
So i am expecting a 16GB version of SGN with no LTE radio in it.

India - Launch
Guys any Leaks on Indian Launch???

Hope we will get a date soon..

I think it is Google's fault that the launch is getting delayed. The device is obviously ready but since it is a nexus they want to launch it first in US. Samsung is ready to launch it I think, like how they launched the S2 many months before the US launch. But I think the price will be a big shock. Nexus S is overpriced to date, by at least 5000 over similar spec phones. I think this one will be priced 10000 more than a Galaxy S2.

What..??? 10000 More?? I dont think they can sell it with that price range. Current market price of SGS II in india is 28K - 30K (though Sulekha is selling at 25K). You Add 10000 to it, boom.. 38 -40 K.
Samsung / Google should limit the price to a max of 32-33 K, other wise they will loose the potential buyers. If that is the case, i will wait for another 3-4 months, for some other ICS model from either HTC/LG / Sammy.

Very simple, Are you fond of using stylus, and have a big pocket then go for galaxy note. Note is useful for those people who wants to take quick memos often as part of their work.
Or you just need a phone, then definitely Galaxy Nexus.

Thank you bro!
does nexus support MHL???

Supposedly but havent got any confirmation. It has the hardware for it.
I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.

I think yes. You just need a standard USB adapter/converter.

[Q] galaxy tab s 8.4 32gb lte

is there galaxy tab s 8.4 32gb lte out and when it will be out ?

Nope it's not out.
It'll never be out due to low sales.

And the reason for the low sales is Sammie keep on pi**ing of their loyal customers by not updating products with timely software releases and releasing new products with no clearly defined update strategy and full of bloatware.
They released the S series within 6 months of the Pro series thereby making all existing buyers machines redundant, did the same a few years back with the P6800 (which they then just stopped releasing updates for).
The shame of it is they do some things so well, they just have no co-ordinated strategy regarding product ranges.

Actually the Wifi version has 32GB internal now.
http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/mobile-phone/tablet/tablet/SM-T700NTSEXSA
So maybe there will be 32GB version for LTE too.
Samsung shouldn't release 16GB as a standard version in first place for this beast.

AT&T starts pre-orders for LTE variants of Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and 10.5. http://google.com/newsstand/s/CBIwsPGGvR8

Based on supported LTE bands, this appears to be a different model than the T-705 that is kicking around. I wonder if ATT would sell me one unlocked if I paid full device price.

It's $100.00 more out of contract. So yes.

Well, they will sell it without a contract, but based on prior experience and their pricing, i don't want an AT&T account - I'm not so sure they will sell me one unlocked, even for the full $629 or however much it is. Being Samsung and AT&T it would require instant root to dump all of the bloatware as well.

any news for 32gb tab

[Q] Think the price will decrease right after the s2 is released?

Looks like the second gen will officially be smaller with a different aspect ratio.
http://www.ibtimes.com/check-out-leaked-samsung-galaxy-tab-s2-cases-1945993
I've been needing to get a tablet and want the current gen tab s but don't want to see that I could have been 100$ richer by waiting a week. Alternatively I haven't talked to anyone who is happy with Samsungs continued Apple emulations.... Does the collective wisdom here think we'll see an instant price drop for the current gen or do you think merchants will try to wait out the change?

I think it most definitely will. The tablet has already been featured in some sales that put the price at around $270 I think. That's a steal considering how good the tablet is

Two weeks ago I paid $270 for my S 8.4. I'm sure it'll hit $230-250 by the end of the summer. August and September are back-to-school shopping months, so manufacturers like to release the newest computer/laptop and tablets then. Which means clearance of last year's model in the weeks/months before.

I'm waiting for the S2 to come out too..
I'm waiting to buy Tab S 8.4 LTE version when price is cut off.

I bought a Tab S 10.5 a month ago because of the change in aspect ratio. At that time there was a sale on for $70 off MSRP so I grabbed it. My suggestion would be to decide on a discount number and regularly check local prices for discounts. The sale was at Staples Canada and ended April 12th. You could use one of those computer best price checking web sites relevant for your country.
Sent from my SM-T800 using XDA Premium HD app

I too have been waiting, seeing the Tab S priced at $100 under "MSRP" all over the place (meaning it was $299 or even less), but hoping with my greedy heart that it would come down even further after the S2 was announced.
Image my surprise when a 2 days after the S2 announcement I couldn't find a single seller offering the Tab S for under $350, and most had jacked the price back up to retail.
Even now the "official" Samsung listing for the Tab S on Amazon is $379! WTF?

Anybody else find Amazons search a waste of space, as it gives you the wrong results, even when it gets it right, you cannot arrange from low to high like every other shopping site.
Is this just me.

UK Focussed. Credit or anything thrown in when buying the note.

Hey folks.
Looking at picking up the Note 10+ 5G and while looking online I noticed that in the US Samsung is giving credit towards other purchases. In some parts of the world samsung is throwing in other goodies with the Note series.
Wondering if there is anything like that for the UK or does Samsung even do this for the UK market.
For me this will be a 2-3 yer phone so ticks a lot of
Boxes.
Anyone ordered theirs from the Samsung website?
Thanks.

Sadly Samsung isn't offering any goodies other than the trade in your old phone offer for UK customers. US buyers seem to be getting a great deal as always.
I am buying the 5G version from Samsung.com - the 512GB model isn't available for pre-order yet so will to go with 256GB.

Thanks. Yep I’m feeling the same. Was hoping to pick up the 512gb but that’s been out of stock since launch. But seeing that I’m going to use a sd card either way I may just pull the plug on the 256 and use the £100 saved towards some cases...

Nothing for us UK buyers as usual, but if you have the Samsung members app on your phone there is currently a 50% off accessories code

What frustrates me is that the trade for a note 9 512gb version is the same as the note 9 128gb!!
Purchase price is £200 more, so why can't resale price be a little higher? No benefit in buying bigger with regards to resale it seems.

I managed to pre-order the 512gb 5G version but ordered it same night it was announced.
The only good deal Samsung do for the uk is the "Samsung upgrade program " which lets you buy the phone interest free credit and upgrade in 12 months

Feel exactly the same. I also have the Note9 512GB, it's unfair that they're offering the same for 128 & 512gb versions.

General Galaxy Fold 3 UK Owners Thread

Thread for UK Owners.
Looking for the best deal currently myself.
I can see Vodafone have a sliding scale scheme; the more you pay up front the less you pay per month.
£469 up front for the phone then £65 a month for 25gb

I decided to buy from the Samsung Web site. Got £100 voucher from Sammy and trade in Tab S6 and further saving by using Samsung Pay. Also free starter kit worth £79. Good deal all round.

I see mention of a 16gb, is this being sold in the UK?

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G - Full phone specifications

12gb only

I haven't preordered a Samsung device since the s6. I just moved to the UK from America so I am intrigued. However since all Samsung folds are Snapdragon it may not be root friendly.
I also got a decent trade in (450) for the iPhone 11 I previously used in the US. So definitely 27/8 cannot come fast enough

The international version should still be root friendly (well as friendly as Samsung phones are) Samsung can't change the rules just because different cpu

I always buy my device using the Samsung upgrade program, and get a sim separately
Currently using a Vodafone esim with unlimited data for £29/month. I usually use a minimum of 600Gb/month, and as much as 2Tb.

Ordered the 512gb Fold3 and watch4 classic, looking forward to it!

Pre-ordered on 3 unlimited everything - first 6 months are 55 then up to 110 - will be shedding the wife's N10 towards future contract costs to reduce further.
Hoping to get a rom together reasonably quickly (depending on how many spanners Sammy have thrown in the works and differences from N20U)

I have been developing on the Tab S6 for over a year now and that's snapdragon
The main difference to Exynos i have noticed is lack of modifiable upparam on SD devices (to get rid of annoying red text when rooted)

Just noticed the free Starter Kit is availability until 31 December! This means you do get a S Pen included, in reality.

I did the rounds with a spreadsheet and figured out buying the phone from samsung.com with a vodafone contract was best. They had a deal for £59/mo plus £380 up front, unlimited calls, texts and 100GB 5G data. Total £1796. Nearly £200 cheaper than buying the phone outright and sticking on my £16.21/mo three contract. Going directly through carriers and looking at 100GB+ data was no competition either, vodafone and o2 about £2.2k, Three £2.3k, EE £2.5k etc.
I don't know if that works with tradeins, vouchers etc. so it might be possible to go cheaper.

I got mine from very, got 10% off when making first credit account purchase when using: welcome as discount code I believe…
Ended up paying 1490 down from the 1599.

Does the UK Version have dual and eSIM or is it single sim and eSIM disabled like the US version ?
