No but if you stay on top of the Samsung USA website for phones this is where they mostly make these announcements or of course ... Android Central you home for everything Android.

Probably in a month or so when they finally ship out their batch of 16gb versions.

ok thanks guys, quite annoying of Samsung to ship different variants at different times
If HTC can do it with their 32 / 64gb models i'm sure Sammy can too....

So far Samsung USA has been utterly useless for me, go figure. I emailed them about both the 32GB Galaxy Note 8.0 (which they are selling everywhere BUT, the US) and the 32GB GS4. What I got was they would be happy for me to buy these devices, but they are not available at this time.

That was it, nothing useful, no mention of ordering elsewhere, no help at all.

I will say AT&T at least said May/June for the 32GB but that was a best guess from them. The fact that Verizon isn't offering a 32GB out of the gate should concern those who want it, and they clearly are looking to charge customers $249 (minus a mail in rebate) for a 16GB then maybe in 2-3 months roll out a 32GB GS4 at $249-299, not sure.

I am waiting on AT&T, I won't get a 16GB its just too little memory and since Google removed the ability to put apps on the SD card post Gingerbread its a joke.

Is there any speculation to when the verizon 32 gb s4 will be released? If i remember correctly wasnt the 32 gb released alongside the 16 gb on verizon for the galaxy s3 last year?

Thats what I'm waiting for too! And when it comes.....I will STRIKE down upon thee with vengeance.....

I talked to the assistant manager at at&t store yesterday and he said his Samsung rep told him they would announce the availability of the 32GBP S4 the middle of next week and at&t would start taking orders then. I told him I had heard rumors that it might not be available until June. He said it won't be near that long. He said it will be soon. He emphasized SOON.

I'm sure Verizon will release a 32gb version. They would be stupid not to, but then again we are talking about Verizon.

IIrc, Verizon launched the 16GB and 32GB S3 at the same time but some stores didn't stock the 32GB flavor. I initially started with a 16GB, but for the $50 difference, it was worth it for the space. But returning it (and paying the damn restocking fee) was a pia. I am going to wait for a 32GB this time around.

Just visited the Verizon store and they seemed to think that it is unlikely the 32GB version will be sold in store. Since "supposedly" the 32GB GS3 did not sell as well. He said I could probably get it online though. So, looks like a wait and see.

The 32Gb S3 on Sprint when they first released was sold out quickly! If anything, people had to settle on the 16GB version because the 32GB was always sold out.

I think some of the larger/well selling stores had them - the stores in Pensacola stocked them, but not any here 40 - 50 miles away. I ordered the 32GB online but they did ship it overnight for free.

Oh do not misunderstand me. I think he is full of it on the S3 32GB sales #'s as well, then I got the... Why do you need 32GB? I honestly looked him in the face and told him cause out of 16 I would end up with 9 maybe due to Verizons bloatware that I do not use. At that point I just stated I would wait till they released it, in-store or online.

It's all about selling you on what they have. They (ok, not all, but most reps) have their best interest when selling devices.

I dunno, I heard that compared to the 16gb it didn't sell well. Makes sense though, since most people don't need that much. I'm one of those people who does though. I'm not gonna wait though, if they get it I'll just use my August update to get it and give the 16GB version to my wife. She won't even use half of the space.

lol, I would've done the same!

Absolutely!

Verizon always claims or comes up with excuses as to why they don't offer something. You had to order the 32GB in store or online for the GS3. I am waiting and will stop into the ATT store this weekend and ask about the 32GB. Annoying part is my monthly service date is the 28th so I will be partial month on each service costing me more. PITA.

a person on another comment thread posted this. any thoughts? "I just talked to a Verizon rep who put her manager on the phone and said the 32GB Galaxy S4 will be carried by Verizon and they will take pre-orders for them starting next week (most likely Thursday he said). That is what I am waiting for because 16GB really means 9.5 GB"

 

[Raptor007]

That does give me some hope, I don't mind a pre-order, but man I am on vacation from 7-10 next month and really wanted to have my new toy so I can keep an eye on work while I am having fun.
