the new nexus 7 (2013) was supposed to be launched in India on 12th nov, along with the nexus 5 but it didnt. the next probable date was 16th november, again it didnt.
meanwhile the nexus 5 will start shipping within this week only (acc to snapdeal) but the playstore still shows "coming soon"
now i am getting really really impatient abt all this.
so, should i wait for the new N7 to officially launch in India or just import it via amazon??? they are charging a measly 3000rs for taxes.
but i do have some concerns-
1. what about returns and after sales service?
2. warranty? will i get the warranty AFTER the new nexus is officially launched in India?
3. do i really need to worry abt warranty? (the 1st gen N7 users might be able to answer this)

better wait for few more weeks.
most products shipped from abroad dont cover warranty! (just in case)
it seems that the official availability of the nexus 7 in India soon is quite doubtful.
abt 8000 pieces of the new nexus7 was shipped to India on 13th november and its still not available in the market (both online and offline retailers), while the shipments of nexus 5 were sent on a later date and from today many retailers are selling it. whereas its still showing "coming soon" for nexus 5 on playstore and no word abt the nexus7 availability after the rumored release date of 12th nov.
its available!

My order was delayed from March 29th to April 7th, as with anyone else ordering an unlocked model, but I'm sick of waiting, and i thought i heard someone say theirs was shipping, is that true?
My gf stopped thinking it was cute days ago (the fact that I can't think about anything else than my phone), and I'm getting on her nerves..
I paid with google checkout, so I don't know if they update the order status as accurately, or .. idunno.. Anyone else got ANY new info on Handtec Desire orders?
From their website:
Stock Update: Handtec has secured a large quantity for the first batch. Status: Still Available
Stock Update 2: HTC Desire expected 7th April. Affects All UK resellers.
Stock Update 3: Stock is still due on the 7th April and loking likely to be this date - we still have availability on the first batch.

Yes the ship out date is still the 7th. I have been talking to Handtec everyday just to check the ETA. Their answer has been the same for the past week.
So...chillax and tell your gf to enjoy you now because once you get your phone, you will become non-existant
When is AT&T going to make an official announcement of what devices will be available, when and for how much? We all know that November 8th is the day and they are supposed to be $199. But is the $199 after rebate? Without Rebate? Also, Engadget said in their Focus review it would be the only device available November 8th. So will there be no Surround on launch day?
It's less than 2 weeks away and AT&T has yet to put down any firm dates, prices, etc. Their website still says "Coming Soon". I called my local AT&T store and they told me November 8th, but said to call back as it could easily change.
Heck, at least T-Mobiles website lists a date, price (including $50 rebate) and device.

By could easily change, it'll probably come in a few days early like the Captivate did - they might get release to sell it early. Unless they're getting same day shipments in the morning, odds are the phones will come in Thurs-Sat.
The Surround is available at Best Buy exclusively, but there's no date on how long it lasts.

It would seem you might not get any information until the 17th.
A moderator on the Three blog has posted here that "You won’t be able to pre-order the Galaxy Nexus but we’ll let you know when it’s available on our network."
Hoping O2 won't do the same, but I have a feeling they might keep us all waiting. Getting a bit impatient now and wanting to get a pre-order in. Slightly underwhelmed by the O2 deals at buymobilephones.net. Want to see if Phones4U or O2 themselves are offering any better.

Probably means initial stocks are running low and they've been kicked back. This is a popular phone!
Samsung still haven't said anything since they officially announced the 17th.
I ordered mine last night from BuyMobilePhones, 3rd contract from the top. Should get it on the 18th although I expect it to be delayed like what my Desire was.

I pre-ordered mine from BuyMobilePhones too on the Panther36 contract with £5 off so £31 a month (handset price £89.99). Good price for 1GB internet and unlimited wifi on btopenzone the only thing I dont like is that the phone will be carrier locked to orange. Not a big deal since I wouldnt be using any other sim cards in it but mobiles.co.uk DOES guarantee that all phones supplied will be carrier unlocked..
I already cancelled my mobiles.co.uk pre-order whedn I found the BuyMobilePhones deal, now I cant decide whether to cancel again and go back to the mobiles.co.uk lol

Hey all.
Does anyone know when this will be available in the UK? A few weeks back it was at lakeside with the promise of general sale a few days after. I cannot find it even listed anywhere outside of expansys. I really want it!

The 16gb is available at the samsung store in Westfield centre Stratford. Thats the only place im aware of that has stock at the moment. They only stock the 16gb WIFI version though
Yep it's frustrating at the moment, I am almost tempted to order the 3G version from amazon.de, I think if they had the black version I would have ordered by now.
I can't help feeling that Samsung are shooting themselves in the foot the longer they leave it with the new Nexus 7 just round the corner.
Sorry I meant Westfield not lakeside! It's the 3G one I'm after ideally. Maybe amazon.de is the way forward. I'll give the UK another week or so then go German!

Carphone warehouse say they will ship wifi version before week commencing May 5th is you pre-order. However they also said this 10th april for delivery before 19th April. I pre-ordered (they took my money) and I rang to chase on the 18th to see it slip out to May 5th. So I cancelled my order.
So I don't suppose this really helps you! but they are listing it and cheaper than amazon.de.
I noticed the Carphone Warehouse date slipping too, I really looking for a black 3G version which it seems is non existent right now.
I asked Samsung UK on Facebook, they replied
Samsung UK (Facebook) posted this:
Samsung Mobile UK Hi Julie, the wifi version will go on general release in the first week of May. ^George
No details of 3G or 32GB units
I'm in the States, but want the 3G/Phone N5100 version as well. Every site that I've seen it listed at in the U.S. has also slipped from April 23rd to May 8th availability. So those dates correspond well to a 3-4 day lead time from foreign sources such as the initial May 19th, then May 5th dates given by Carphone Warehouse UK.
Hopefully May 5th (and May 8th for me) will be the day! Fingers crossed...
I own a Note 2, and was intrigued by this device.
However, the price really puts me off. For an 8" tablet, it is in a price bracket of it's own. More expensive than the iPad Mini even.
I just can't justify that layout for something that is just a little bigger than my Note 2, it just isn't worth it.
A real shame, because it looks a great device.

Its in a price bracket of its own, because its in a league if its own. Even against the iPad Mini, the Note 8 has the pen digitizer, better CPU, and 4x the RAM (although the exterior build quality is arguably not quite as good, but still great).
Its worth if for those that value a premium device packed with features, versus the "race to the bottom" pricing strategy and gimping of features and quality present on devices like the Nexus 7, Kindle Fire, and Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. I for one am thankful that somebody has stepped up with a quality Android device (in the "smaller" form factor), as the lower-priced competition just doesn't hack it for me.
I am also waiting for the 3G version to become available so that I can replace both my Note 2 and IPad Mini with a single device. :good:
Samsung UK Facebook stated the wifi version would be available on 10th May.
Currys have the same availability date with the Note 8.0 ready to pre-order.
The Note is on Amazon UK - £339. However they are stating a 1- 3 month delivery. I'm confident that it will be available well before that time slot, as they often state this for newly released goods.

I'm assuming you got the WiFi only version? I'm patiently waiting for the 3G/Phone version to be released in the UK or elsewhere so I can get it through an importer to the U.S. (Los Angeles).
Yes just the white 16gb wifi is all they have....hope you don't have to wait to long
Thanks. We'll see. Unfortunately, Negri Electronics has pushed their "Expected Availability" date for the preorders forward twice already.

An Australian grey importer got the the 3G version in stock yesterday, so probably you'll see other importers get them soon.
Decided to wait further, as Australian versions of the device get 24 months warranty, but if you get an international version, it only has 12 months warranty. Endless waiting!
Thailand.
I was so excited when I ordered my Note 7 on August 5th. I couldn't wait. Then it was delayed to September 2. I wasn't happy but I decided to wait. The night before Samsung called. It is delayed. This time indefinitely.
Note 7s are catching fire. They're being banned. But I still wait. It is now almost October and we just got the news.
For pre-order customers the Note 7 will be available around November 30th! So this is impossible. That's basically December. By then we'll be about 3 months away from the Galaxy S8. So I might as well wait.
For non pre-order people, it'll come in late December or the beginning of NEXT YEAR! ?
No. It is heartbreaking but, at this point it makes no more sense to wait. It just isn't meant to be.

Wait 3 more month and you get a choice of the note7 or the s8/edge
When the S8 comes, the Note 7 is then automatically 1 year old tech. Not worth it anymore, unless for hard-core Note users.
The delays killed the Note 7. Why would you choose a Note 7 over an S8?
I believe there won't be an S8 Edge. From next year all their flagship phones will be curved displays. Probably similar to the Note 7 screen.
I'm in Thailand also. Nov 30th for note 7 is ridiculous
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA-Developers mobile app
I'm also in Thailand. I called the Samsung store today and they said November but didn't know what day. Have to wait for another two months!
a note is a very different from a S, if you want the newest device all the time, you might as well wait for the note 8 or s9, iphone 8, etc.,
The pre-orders will be Nov 30th normal mid Dec. It's a real mess. All the samsung stores here have big posters for the note 7 and cases and chargers but no phones for over 2 months.

yes, but different fumctionalities
I've been calling Samsung Thailand for the last several weeks trying to return the Note 7 I got in England. All they say is they'll call back and tell me what to do. Perhaps once they have the phones in stock...
