Will the galaxy note get its own section now?

[kharrigan]

So the Galaxy Note is launching in Germany soon. Does this mean that it will get its own section now? There are many who want to discuss this phone...

I second the motion
PLEASE

Someone needs to make a specs and likes thread.

ya i think it should get its own... this device intrigues me

 

[CallerHoller]

So is it gunna be exclusive to Sprint or who-ever? Is it ICS?
I was disappointed to see the Nexus 4.65 screen was actually 4.3 with .35 reserved for buttons.
Since when are the Damn buttons considered part of the screen!

The G-Note (I like that name) isn't ICS, it's Gingerbread. Screen size is measure diagonally - content is irrelevant.

While we're waiting, check out this review:

I hope this phone comes to at&t, I want it so bad. The only other thing I need is a nice case, as the back of this thing is unbelievably ugly.

 

[CallerHoller]

Non-exclusive! Please.

The G-note would be awesome! I would like it on AT&T, and soon! or at least report that it will come by the end of the year. I have a couple of weeks to take back my iPhone 4s to get something else. If they would announce it soon, I would use a flip phone while waiting!
Has any one seen an off contract price yet? or a UK price to roughly compare for import to US?
And not to forget, The G-Note NEEDS its own forum!

They have not announced either a release date or price for the USA but I'd put the price in the $600-$700 range and the release in early December. But, this is just my guess and if the SII is any indication then it might be December of 2012...

I hope that it is in that price range. If I can't get out of my contract, I could sell my iPhone 4s to cover most of the cost. And hopefully AT&T won't drag their feet. The G_note would be a great seller at christmas time.

I thought the rumor was Sprint, now it's att?

I haven't heard who's getting it. I just want it on at&t so I can use it.

Some G-Notes are for sell on ebay at $990 hopefully they will drop in price as they are released in other countries.

Wow, yes I want one of the gnote but I am not going to spend $1k on it, even an unlocked one

I have to wait and get one that's compatible to tmobile 3G

How can you judge SRP based on ebay? It's not uncommon to see things go for 2X or even more the actual SRP so ebay is a useless reference for retail price expectations...

Just noticed this potential price data point...


Samsung GT-i9220 Galaxy Note Black Unlocked Import at MobileCityOnline.com


Brian

 

[scaots]

That's a good price at Mobilecity but they have no ETA. England has it unlocked for 495 pounds which is close to $800, so importers will have it around this price.

You're right about the price reference. I was just stating what I found. Hopefully we will see the Note released soon, so we can get a rough idea what we will have to pay for one off contract.
