Note 8 pre-order 'freebies' - as usual, from Evan Blass

[anon(782252)]

Edit:

Looks like he updated the details and had it slightly wrong.

Here's the new info:

CORRECTION: the options are as follows

1. 256GB card + wireless charger
2. 360 cam

Sorry for the confusion. https://t.co/Db42n4kVCf

Got the 256gb card last year with note 7. But sure I would use the 360 camera. Guess I could sell it.. just really want the phone.

Wow nice deals I just got last year 360 camera so I'd take the memory card an take picture all day hehe

Hope we get that offer in Canada, always seem to not get the SD card offer. Usually VR or gear

I read that right, right? Note 8 will already come with the 256gb sd card. Then you can choose between the convertible wireless charger or the 360 camera? If that is the deal then wow. Nice. I already got the samsung flat wireless charger but I wouldn't mind having the convertible wireless charger so I can have phone sitting up. Wouldn't mind the 360 camera but I probably wouldn't use it much. So kind of a tough decision. Probably get the charger.

Ewwww... Preorder only? Might have to jump on that. I'll be among those up all night tracking the package instead of being one of those laughing at the trackers. Although early in store buyers usually get the perks too.

That's how I read it. Not sure what I would do with the 360 camera. All I picture is the Google car driving down the street for maps pics, lol. Would probably go for the charger.

Lmao. I think the camera would be neat to have but the charger be more useful to me. I'll give my old one to my mom.

The 360 camera makes for some great pictures at the summit of a couple mountains.

Or if it is the latest 360 camera you could get it and sell it? If it is the new one the cost of it seems like it would be higher than the cost of the charger? I also saw where Europe (I believe) is getting the dex station? That would be great. I could use that.

If convertible wireless charger is just the upright charger, I'll pass since I have one already that stands up. No need for anyone to select that as you can get a third-party one for $20.

 

[Jewels81]

Ok apparently blass had to update the preorder options. So guess I can choose 256gb sd card and the wireless charger or just get the 360 camera

I think I'll go for the charger. I already have a 256 gb card from the first Note 7 but in my opinion you can never have too many cards. But the charger looks good. I have a cheapie flat wireless one I used on the Note 7 and it worked but it was finicky and I like the upright part. I would never use the camera. Yeah yeah I could sell it (I sold the VR thing that came with the Pixel because VR gives me a migraine) but I think I'll just go for the charger. Anyone else decided yet?

It is well worth the price point with the freebies. I got the 256 card last year and I already got the 360 cam as a bundle promo with the S8+.
If you're planning to get the 360 cam and intend to use it, bear in mind you will also need an SD card for that. Don't have to be 256gb.
If this is true, I could really use another SD card (for the Note 8) and a wireless charger.

Edit: This site won't post an actual 360 photo. So what you below is rather a wide angle shot.

This is an example of a 360 pic from the cam. Taken 8 at night so a bit dark. You can also use just the front or just the back camera, and of course 360 video or a time lapse video, or a live broadcast (youtube/facebook).

Galaxy Note 8 pre-order buyers reportedly will get some nice freebies

Thats one thing I like about Samsung. You can't beat the "freebies" that come with pre-orders of their newest device or the sales a couple of months after release. AWESOME.

Might preorder just for the camera. Was going to just buy in the store release day.

I wonder if its a fast charging wireless or a regular... lol
