Samsung: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

I reserved the 512gb option and still no option in the app to actually place order. The option is available for the the smaller memory version however
 
The reservation process seems broken, at least for me. I registered yesterday and got an email a few hours ago saying to go ahead and pre-order now, before everyone else can do so at midnight. But when I click on the link to pre-order, and go through the whole process, at the very end it says "Our apologies. We could not find a reservation associated with the email address you entered".

But the email address I'm logged in as is the same as what I used for the reservation, and the same as the address to which Samsung emailed the reservation confirmation.

I chatted with customer support and they say their team will look at the problem sometime tomorrow.
 
Update, I finally got it ordered. I had been using my PC and I still had the email on my phone so I tried that. The use of the phone worked fine, was about to get concerned.
 
Try it on your phone Gary, that is exactly what was happening to me. I had the email on my phone and used that to log in. That should do it for you.

Thanks for the suggestion, but when I use the Samsung app on my phone, it only offers me the chance to reserve (again), not to go ahead and pre-order.
 
$1499AU for the 512gb pre order from retailers until August 24th then the price goes up to regular $1799AU.....ouch.
 
Can you try the original email on your phone, that is what I did. I tried earlier to use the app and it did not work for me.

Yup, same thing going through the email link on my phone--ends up with the same error message.

Order submitted. Three choices of goodies. Picked the free noise-canceling headphones, as I am not a gamer. $450 trade in. Out the door price on the 512GB blue version is about $867.

I clicked on the link in the email on my phone and it took me to the app where I was able to submit. Got the same email error on the website. Glitch...
 
Just preordered mine through bhphotovideo. Comes with dex and samsung wireless duo charger. I didn’t notice till after I did it it’s for a unlocked one. What do I lose with att with it? Hate to cancel it and lose those items for ordering an At&t one?

I'm not familiar with ATT. I use Tmobile which most features such as Wifi calling works with unlocked Samsungs but probably not with ATT unless it's a hidden feature.

Is it the international unlocked or the US version you ordered?

Yea I decided it wasn’t worth it over the $150 off at Best Buy and getting the At&T version which supports all those features. So I got it through B.B.
 
the price of note 9 is quite high because demand is very high i think we have to wait for 2 to 3 months and then buy it
 
B&H photo seems like the best deal for unlocked model.

Free DEX pad, free new wireless duo charger, can also get the AKG wireless headphones or that useless game points via rebate. Add to that no sales tax collected outside of NY.

Seems to be the best deal currently. I don't consider trade ins as deals since the trade in value Samsung is offering is meh and can get at minimum same price easily and most likely more selling it locally or swappa or many other places.

Only drawback they might not ship until 24th and being on the west coast it's going to take 3-5 days to deliver even on their free express shipping option. I'll wait around couple more days before placing the order to see any other place has better offer. I'm still planning on getting the 512 GB unlocked model.
 
PreOrdered the Ocean Blue 256 model from Samsung UAE. Delivery estimate is on the 25th of Aug. Three colors are offered here. Black, Blue and the Purple by the way.

The wait starts!
 
I say that's pretty good value considering last year's Note 8 came in $1499 for a 64GB version. Ordered my blue 512 GB version. Not a big fan of the Blue & Yellow combo but got bored with blacky black and feminine copper.
