Anyone thought what Samsung should do with all the 3-party accessory's that now Samsung rendered useless?
All the accessory's that are Note 7 unique like cases and so on is kinda useless now, is it to much to as for the money back from the 3-party seller or is this Samsungs thing to deal with?
Would assume Samsung should take the fall for third party accessories when you consider it was their choice to stop production all together.
Boy not only does this cost Samsung a fortune on the note 7 alone I could just imagine of they have to fork out money to pay back people who have purchased 3rd party accessories.
I have a feeling 3rd party developers for the phone will want to take Samsung to court as well considering the amount of money they stand to loose as well.

I can see a lot of unhappy accessory makers
As for us poor buyers ...
Samsung UK have told some callers no refund ...others have been told its in the decision process by Execs as to "if" get refunded for 3rd party accessories
I doubt they will refund myself
This is a long shot. But Samsung could design their new phones, Galaxy S8 or Note 8 with the exact same dimensions.

Never going to happen. They will want to get away from everything associated with the N7 now!
Which is why I said, long shot.
It is more likely Samsung will introduce a radical new design to have a distinct difference from the Note 7.
I guess the consumers that are affected the most are the frequent flyers, who travel a lot, especially for work. This is an unnecessary hassle for them. So a new design is almost necessary.
I am outside my Return period on Amazon for the 1) Galaxy Note 7 Screen Protector (2-Pack), PEMOTech® [PET Full... 2) Galaxy Note 7 Case, Spigen¨ [Liquid Crystal] Ultra Thin Premium... and 3) Galaxy Note 7 Case, Spigen¨ [Slim Armor CS] Card Holder [Gunmetal]...
Now what?
Yeah I bought two cases from spigen during launch

I'll be eating 2 wireless chargers, 3 cases and one unused screen protector...
All the additional USB-C cables ive purchased can be used down the road.
Ourselves aside... I was just thinking of all the companies that made accessories for this phone.

This is a nightmare for Samsung. I have over $200 in cases and accessories (case junkie I am) and just saying eat it is not helping their image at all. They have to make it right somehow.

Hey I get it....
My cases and screen protector are out, but the wireless chargers will become useful again.
I'm not abandoning them over this... sh*t happens, but i'm taking a timeout for now.
I bought a LG G5 to use until I see what Pixel and possibly the v20 can do.

This is a lesson to stop with all the impulse buying we do when we get a new phone lol
Ironically my Gear VR arrived in the mail today and I can't use it.

Your sense of entitlement is not the same as being entitled.
You chose to buy the accessories. They were optional and if you did not buy them from Samsung, it is ridiculous to expect to get refunded for them.
I am €100 down myself and the device never even got to be released here. Its my fault for buying accessories in preparation for the Note 7. But I would not 'expect' Samsung to somehow refund me for them because it will never be released now.

Not arguing with you as we all are in the same boat but hardly calling it impulse buying. My phone is expected to last for than a month so I buy accessories to go with that. Samsung owes their Note 7 owners more than a sorry your loss - here's $25.
How many cases did you purchase? Having one or two is understandable, but if you have dozens then perhaps there is a bigger problem lol
I did get my $25 credit (actually $50 as I have two Note 7s)
Maybe I have the problem....... :silly:

I thought you would get that only if you switched to another Samsung phone, like the S7 or S7E?
---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------
Anyways, let's see... 2 wireless chargers, 4 high end leather cases (like Spigen and some other brands), 3 Samsung OEM cases (LED, S-View clear and S-View kickstand), 2 screen protectors (originally 3 but the previous recall only gave me back 2) and 2 extra USB-C cables. I am unsure what the total is, but easily over 300 bucks... that's lost, I cannot imagine Samsung or AT&T refunding me any of that. I do believe they should, at the very least the Note 7-specific items (so the cases and screen protectors) but, yeah, let's get real... "you didn't buy it with us, so too bad"... and the third party vendors will be crazy to allow returns if you're outside the window, I'm sure they have enough loss from this as well. I wont be getting the 25 bucks either (or in my case, 50 since it's two phones in my care) since I wont go to the S7 or Edge.

I contacted Amazon via chat this morning and they allowed me to return all Note 7 associated accessories purchased from late July to now for a full refund. This included screen protectors, cases, cables, selfie stick, game pad, gear vr accessories, and last but not least a car mount. Most items were doubled since I have 2 Note 7s that will be reluctantly returned very soon.
Best buy is also allowing the return of all accessories purchased too.
The only thing I will not be able to get reimbursed for are the various Slickwraps also purchased.
How could case companies sue Samsung? If i personally decided to start manufacturing something for a product hoping to piggy back off another companjes product then that company stops making the product, on what grounds do i have to sue? Unless those companies are directly licensed by samsunf to manufacture cases for them, then all they are doing being opportunists and capitalizing off Samsung ... I highly doubt these companies pay samsung royalties to mold these phones and then build a company off their devices,.so again why would samsung be liable? And why should Samsung pay you for your 3rd party purchases?
I myself have about 30 cases for my Note 7. 2 of which are Official cases, I'm positive ill eat the 3rd party cases, and I HOPE samsung will refund me the LED and Keyboard case price, but that's even questionable. This is the chance you take I guess.

For those that want a dock, or just the piece that pops into the front of the HDMI dock (for the GT7). Literally sold my GT10 yesterday; I'd buy one right now just for the plastic piece.

The GT10 is a great tablet and will be for some time; I just can't spend all of my time flashing ROMs on 2 devices!

LOOOL. HHgreg is legit. xD :good:
my local store had two of them. bought them both. still need one more. the guys at the counter were annoyed that they had no idea of the price. so i feel kinda lucky they were there.
the downside... there is no charger. so they expect me to use the short three foot cord that came with the tab. that thing barely reaches from the plug straight up on a table.
anyone know the difference between the multimedia Desktop Dock in the OP with (Model: D1B1BEGXAR)) versus the this one (Model: EDD-D1B1BEGSTA) sold on amazon. They both seem to be for Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 original. I remember the Original galaxy 10.1 was thicker before the US version of the 10.1 came out. no way of telling if this is the case here.
I missed out on this awesome deal. No longer available in my area nor am I able to order online and ship to Washington DC.seems to be sold out or in-store only if available.
Thanks,
Nice deal but how about shipping to germany... ?
anyone know if i can get this one to africa ?
This is great, its only $3.82 now w/o shipping! I bought the media adapter from the original tab 7, which had hdmi, was just proping up the tab 10.1 with a piece of wood behind it, now I can buy this and just use the plastic base piece keyboard is also on sale 17.47, in case any one is interested
I realy want to order one toobecause in europe they are about at least 20-30 €..

just picked mine up in store, apparently they dont ship the dock, you have to do in store pickup. the guy at the store told me it was being discontinued, and I got 1 of the only 2 they had. I also picked up the SD adapter for the tab(official samsumg adapter) for $8.37. I had previously bought a cheap chinese 2 in 1 usb/sdcard adapter, its very ****ty and you have to hold it an exact angle, and not move the device, otherwise you a disconnect...

Its out of stock. It will let you put it in the cart, but when you go to checkout during the entering of the billing/shipping address it then says its out of stock and must be removed from the basket. Otherwise its a good deal.
If you're a Amazon Prime member its $9.72 shipped for the EDD-D1B1BEGXAR model.

What about other accessories?

It's bizarre, I have no idea what's going on with Samsung's accessory division this time around.... Barely any Samsung branded accessories a month after release for both the Note 10 and Note 3. They are slowly starting to trickle out if you're willing to hunt them down. But i still don't understand it, accessories are huge money makers, I can imagine how much they're losing out to cheap amazon and ebay case guys.
Good point! i would say great point!
I see it as integral part of service or support - whatever....
Missing it - is just missing quality !!
anyhow - other ideas even form eBay Amazon DealExtereme, aliexpress... and additional china made...?
Wow, it's already December and still no decent protective case for this tablet. This sucks as I cannot use this in my line of work without a protective case as I am always out in the field. I guess you can't blame 3rd party manufacturers as there are too many variations that comes out that they cannot recuperate from their investment.
Not sure if anyone knows about this site. It's like going to ChinaTown of your local major city and buying goods from their market. It's rebranded, backdoor manufacturing, knockoff, products that didn't meet the tolerances, type of things. I saw some GNex phones on there a week ago or so. There is a ton of stuff that is legit on there, but at super huge discounts to what you pay anywhere else.
Here's another forum I'm on and what they have to say about the site. Most of the problems come from looooong shipping times. You have about 10 different shipping options. Can take anywhere from 2 - 6 weeks. 8 and it got lost in customs or stolen off the truck. But they will ship you another or refund you if that happens. Most of the problems we have with ecigs are batteries. Most of the time they get taken in customs before even leaving China. When that happens, FT gives you two choices, refund or attempt again.

I don't see any problems with customs and an unbranded TPU case. I don't mind waiting a couple weeks for it to come in the mail. So I picked up 3 of these. One in black, white and blue.

If you bought it from the Google Play store there's a chance you might get a replacement. There have been people who have called in saying they broke their screen and Google replaced the phone. It's YMMY, but it's worth a shot first before looking around to buy a new panel.
There are plenty of screen replacements on eBay for around $100

With ebay you have to do some research. Find what you're looking for, then read the seller feedback and search for the item you're looking to buy. If people are leaving positive feedback about it, then you shouldnt have anything to worry about. I buy iPhone screen replacements all the time and havent had an issue yet.

I've purchased three N5 replacement screens which I carefully researched and went with the ones that seemed to be the best rated sellers (not just the cheapest option). I would never again go that route. IMHO but none of the screens were Corning Gorilla Glass 3. They each had issues that stock phones did not (dead pixels, attracted dust like a dust magnet, changed the touch characteristics, etc...). Last phone that I needed to replace a screen for I ended up going with Play Store and they did a free exchange of the unit.
I found a solution. LG in Canada charges a flat rate of $150 to fix the display which is much better than $200+ from local shops.
Google will send you another Nexus 5 if you bought it directly from them.
Might as well keep that $150 and put it towards a newer device (Nexus 6) .

I would just dump the Nexus 5 and save the money for the Nexus 6 or pick up the new Moto G.

I am not going to apply for a case since I don't think that I will get one in Poland. But cheers for the smart moves you're making You have a rising competition this year and I hope that you'll bring something new on these models. Since Mophie is bringing wireless charging and supporting Otterbox with the uniVerse and I-blades have more advanced electronics and software, what is going to be your innovation? I know that adding bigger capacity is your thing but isn't 6300mAh and 8500mAh adding too much bulk? Hope it goes great with the product launch. I was expecting you a bit sooner.

This is great news. I've had the ZeroLemon 10,000 mah on both of my Note 3's and a Note 4's in the past. I gave one of my Note 3's with the battery in it to a friend over a year ago and she's still using it to this day. I just got a S8+ a week ago, and I was going to pass my Note 4 with the battery in it down to her, and she's going to pass the Note 3 to her daughter. Tell you what - they might add a little bulk compared to the other ones that have less mah - but if you're like me and are talking on your phone for hours a day and use it to take lots of pictures and videos - nothing beats a few more mah.
I just came from the V20 with the Zerolemon and have had several, so excited for this. Just got the S8+ yesterday and already want a Zerolemon. Us oil field guys need as much power as we can get. I got them buying the LGs just so they can order the battery. PM sent!
