Note 8 Thailand

[magichoward]

I'm based in Thailand any one else?

I can't read Thai so the Thai forums are useless and trying to get some idea of promotions is difficult. Maybe there are other English speaking people here?

Thailand does not know anything about the note 8.
With the note 7 and Galaxy S8 they did not know for about a week or more

the place that gets the news first and can be trusted is on facebook "samsung mobile thailand"

www.facebook.com/samsungmobilethailand/

it is in Thai but look for the posts from samsung mobile in the comments and run them through google translate

I will try and post here when details in Thailand are released.

 

[darren hi]

samsungmobilethailand face book page has the news first and they do not know anything at the moment.
Note 7 and S8 it took a week + for them to know anything.

if you want to look for yourself check out the page and use google to translate the comments from samsungmobilethailand

Im guessing it depends on pre orders for the main countries in the first week. Then they decide what to do with other countries based on this.

I wonder if they will give a discount to people who ordered the n7

I ordered mine in The Mall Korat at the Samsung store on the third floor. They had no details what-so-ever, price, free-bees, delivery date, nothing. They said that they would know on Sept. 1.

The samsung store near me new even less.. I even phoned Samsung hq in Bangkok. They said price and offers have not been finalized. But should be able to pre-order on 1st delivery approx 15 to 20th September... Let's see. In the meantime the price of the S8 went up.. Amazing Thailand

 

[Jerry Schuller]

It's strange that I could re-order now, but you can't and Samsung hq said that you couldn't until the 1st. Yes, amazing Thailand.

 

[magichoward]

Yes, but I would not trust the store for sure. Did they give you an official reciept?
I'm also hoping they will offer people that ordered the note 7 deal as well on pre-order like usa

 

[Jerry Schuller]

Yes, I got an official receipt, same as I always get when I order or buy something. I've bought 6 or 7 phones there before, and the service has always been good.

I'm hoping they offer the SD Card and Wireless Charger and not the Camera 360. I have no use for the Camera. I saw the Singapore will be getting the Note 8 on September 15th, I hope it will be the same for Thailand.

Where are you located?

 

[magichoward]

Hi I'm in pattaya if you ever in this part of town let me know. I seem to be the local go to tech guy in the area for the expats

 

[Jerry Schuller]

I don't get to Pattaya much anymore. It's probably been 8 years since I have been there. I would probably be the tech guy in Korat too, if I would have let it happen. I always had a reason that I couldn't help, so they don't ask any more.

 

[magichoward]

It looks like they are only giving a free case and stereo speakers.. Did you pre-order the note 7

 

[Jerry Schuller]

Yes, I saw that on a couple of websites. I guess I'll have to buy the SD Card and wireless charger. Yes, I pre-ordered it, but they said they won't have any details until Friday. So, I'll get confirmation then on freebees, price and delivery.

 

[Jerry Schuller]

Just saw this on Thaivisa

It says you will get those freebees if you order from "Samsung’s official website." So, I don't know if I will get those or not. Have to wait and see.

 

[magichoward]

I think it's not such a great offer at all. I think maybe to wait after the offer and see what the stores offer I would prefer a wireless charger to the battery pack etc

 

[Jerry Schuller]

I agree. I'll see what the store offers on Friday.

 

[magichoward]

I'm 50/50 not sure

 

[magichoward]

Dam I ordered it today.. By the way banana shop has same offer as Samsung plus you get another power bank and jbl headphones and something else

 

[magichoward]

But the stores very quite it would seem I was the only customer
