Where to get best deal - Samsung Galaxy Fold Questions & Answers

Good day guys
Desperately want a FOLD but looking for best place to purchase. Anyone got any advice to get it at the best price. I am in the United Kingdom. Seems EE only network carrying it and contract is very expensive would rather purchase...I currently have a NOTE 9.
Any advice welcome

Samsung website. Trade in note 9 for £375!!! Or buy on eBay with 0% finance. Btw EE selling it unbranded and unlocked so buying from someone who selling upgrade isn't an issue with sim lock.

Just try to finance it somewhere for 24 months, zero interest. You can buy them second hand on Swappa or Ebay, but that may affect warranty. I would just do payments (which is what I did)

Well, I can assure you that the 649.99 retail is the actual cost for Retailers. So there is no wiggle room for them to offer a discount without a contract being involved. So if you can find it for less without a contract involved I'd jump on it. Maybe ebay or something. ..

wow this price is beefed up in the uk

on PAYG it costs more than a s3.
on contract it costs either equal to the s4 or MORE than the s4 depending on the provider.
When I rang vodafone to query why they charge more for the s4 mini than the s4 they said due to demand.
Is a shame this phone doesnt have mhl out, otherwise it would be a beast. As I see it kept a fm radio which the full s4 doesnt have.
Do other countries have it cost more than the s3 (and s4)?
Not here in Singapore! I don't know any other S4 Mini users around here actually. :/
350€ in Germany. Quiet similar to a s3.
I got mine I9192 off UK eBay for £285

I got a GT-I9195 from UK eBay for £300, you just need to shop around.
Here in Sweden S4 mini and S3 are pretty much on par with ~375€ / ~$500 in the established shops.
However the s4 mini was much more expensive at the release date and the price dropped approx 25% in one month! I really noticed the heavy price drop. Possibly an intended strategy from Samsung.
Here in the UK the cheapest I've seen from a trustworthy provider is £21 pm..Cheapest I've seen from the internet is 16.23pm on dialaphone. Not sure if I should go for the dialaphone one as it has mixed reviews :/ If anyone has ordered from there before please tell me if they're dodgy, thanks!
Hmm I thought this phone would be a lot cheaper in UK. Here in Sweden you get it for £9 / 24 months with contract. If you buy it cash it costs £235.
Gernany Hamburg, 429€ in July
and i think it is worth.

yeah thats under half price on contract. your price seems more realistic, here in the uk I think they alter pricing on popularity, if something sells well then regardless of spec and cost pricing is pumped up. here in the uk the s3 mini and s4 mini phones are extremely popular outselling the flagships.
Just bought mine from Facebook for sale, free or wanted for £250. Did have Xperia Z before and prefer this phone.

i did't want to open a new thread so i'll ask here...
I'm from Croatia and i think we will not get the DUAL SIM version here. We recently joined the EU so if i buy it anywhere from Europe, it will be tax free.
My only condition is that it's dual sim and that it's unlocked for all networks.
Could you advise from where can i order it online for the best price?

Ebay UK, it costs about £270-280
Got it for 400 Euro.
Carphone Warehose £329.
I bought mine from there, I like to be able to walk into a local shop if i have any issues, and will pay a bit extra for that. I think, when considering the price, that it's worth remembering that this is a really well performing LTE enabled phone. I think it's worth every penny. I also have an HTC One, and it easily feels as snappy day to day as my One, just not as big and heavy.

Selling my new Note 4 , I need some advice listing it

Hi, I'm Selling my new Note 4 on Ebay and I need some advice listing it.
In forming my listing, I typically look at past successful listings and see how they worked their ad. I have noticed ad that claim to be "factory unlocked".
Can somebody explain this to me and also give me any tips on getting top buck for my listing?
I thought these phone were locked.
I can provide a photo of the label on my box.
I'm thinking on a quick 3 day sale so someone can get this in time for a Holiday present.
This is a typical listing that confuses me:
NEW FACTORY UNLOCKED Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910V 32GB WHTE Verizon GLOBAL GSM
http://www.ebay.com/itm/GREAT-FACTO...1313163018?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43d39e1b0a!
verizon's LTE phones are all sim unlocked
thats prob what they mean.

I've had much better luck selling on my smartphones on Swappa. It's your choice, but Swappa just seems to attach more serious buyers and has a reputation for better protecting the seller and the customer. You'll also get a better idea of what smartphones similar to yours are selling for.

Thank you for your reply!
So does that mean I can truthfully say in my ad?
" Factory Unlocked To Work With Any GSM Carrier * OverSeas"
Another vote for swappa. Sold my phone there in a day (and most of them are if you are reasonably priced)
no crazy ebay fees.......
Just list your phone with the model # and a good description. You will do fine.
I sold both iphone 4 and galaxy S3 and started bidding at $1 with a buy it now that I felt was a little over average. Both sold on ebay in less then 3 hours, buy it now instant pay.
use craigslist.
too many scams with paypal dude...
people will buy and say it never got delivered.
i only sell on craigslist, but never buy
Swappa did not work for me. Had 2 people buy the phone but neither could pay for it. Had to relist each time. Finally gave up.
Some great feedback here, thanks guys. Its on swappa for two days then I'm moving it over to fleaBay.

On ebay, you'll pay like $60 in fees on a $600 ending price.
So $600 on ebay nets you $540. You can lowball on Swappa for 575, lose $10 to swappa, pay shipping yourself, maybe $15, and still come out ahead despite an initial $25 lower price. Just something to think about.

Where can I buy it in UK

Hello Everyone,
I'm interested in buying the razer phone, I live in london but the only store I saw that has this phone is Three, the problem is that I don't want a contract with this company and I want it unlocked as well. Anyone knows how can I buy it? Maybe other stores? and what about the price? Why they said it will cost 700$ and in their site when I want to order it the price is 700£. You know that's not the same price there's a difference between 700 dollars and 700 pounds. So my question is where can I buy it unlocked without any contract in uk for a normal price?
Thanks

All threes phones are unlocked out the box even the payg you just have to put up with their ****ty 3 brand that appears for less than a second

Three stores are only selling the phone on their network. I would guess if you don't want a Three Contract you'll need to buy it from Razer UK store

For Those Who Didn't Pre-Order; Is It Impossible To Buy One?

Hey everybody,
For those who didn't pre-order; Is it impossible to buy one without the ridiculous 3rd party mark up price?
I got mine from bestbuy without a preorder at regular price.
I got mine at an AT&T store without a preorder.
I forgot to mention, I am from Canada.
From what I recall, there were quite limited numbers even in the US.
Do any of you guys know what avenues I can go through to aquire one?
None of the Best Buy stores in Austin will be carrying it per instore Samsung rep. Trying to find one around Austin/San Antonio area.

I purchased mine online from AT&T, no preorder. It came in three days.
Bought one last week from BB. It took 9 days to get it.

Basically... yes. Go to ebay, and find somebody selling it with the proof of purchase. As long as you have that you get the concierge + one time $150 screen replacement. I paid 2200 for mine.
I bought mine on a EE (UK) contract for £50 up front (took about a week to come). Shame it's costing me £119 a month, but I do get 2 years of Amazon Video, plus 6 months of Apple Music and few other extras. I worked it out that it's only slightly more than getting an iPhone 11 Pro Max, but you are getting something far more unique with the Fold.
The Fold isn't sold in the Netherlands, so I ordered one from Samsung Germany. This had the bonus of scoring me the 5G model (F907B), too.
Got mine from the Samsung Store in the UK, they had 2 in stock at the time (9 days ago)
thanks for the replies everyone.
i just waited for the reveal of the motorola razr, and what a shame, the leaks from months ago were all accurate.
now i'm really considering the fold.
The Razr is nice and all that, but those specs and that battery don't cut the mustard at that price IMHO
