tab 7.7 GSM voice calls - Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus

product page is up at samsung, man.. now I wish I waited.. would be incredible if it made calls out the box.

I feel good about getting the Plus. I don't plan on making calls on it, so nothing about the 7.7 really jumps out a being that much better. The SAMOLED is nice, but not enough for me to drop anymore cash than what i did.

The plus can also make gsm calls with the International version.. Rest assured that gsm voice calling will be removed from the 7.7 in the US like it was removed from all other versions.

Know what you mean. But I noticed no price listed nor when released. The ones I saw listed overseas were in the $600-700 range. Just a wee bit more than it's worth to me. Don't regret the Gtab 7+ in the least. The community is getting busy and one can only hope for more soon!

Galaxy Note (international) or GSIII

Basically what it says. Im getting a newer samsung device and im wondering if my family of infusers would help me out. Ive heard theres not much performance difference other than the quad core. And i can get a note for cheap new (like 200-300 dollars) the screen size doesnt matter as i love big phones (first android was dell streak 5) and the ics with no bluetooth i cant do for much longer. So have at the discussing haha

Google galaxy note international. Click shopping tab, then set price range from 150 to 1000 and view from lowest to highest. Theres about 5 chinese sites that have them listed as low as 195 dollars new (without the twenty dollars shipping) but still. I can see why there so cheap in china, someone probably gets truck loads for free the they sell them at a low price to sell them quickly. You should look into it. Ive called a couple to see if there legit and they seem so, i get a human on the other line

Haha, i don't at all, i came from the dell streak 5 and anything smaller than my infuse upgrade would have left a bad taste in my mouth. Can't wait till my note comes in.

I would go for the Note. There is not much difference between the two and the Note may be older, but it is cheaper.
actualwares dot com only takes western union / moneygram. Basically cash transfer. I was interested until I heard that...
Any other sources?
I completely understand where everyone is coming from about the Note.. It's the biggest and relatively slimmest phone out there, however, there is just something about the New GalaxyS3 that is just sexy to me, the HDAMOLED screen everything, not to mention you know it'll be the phone they don't throw away after a couple of months of it being out.. "Cough" Infuse "Cough" lol... j/k.. but really, it's like having someone ask you, "Would you rather sleep with a Victoria Secret Model 'A' or Victoria Secret Model 'B'." lol.. It doesn't really matter, they're both Victoria Secret Models so they're both obviously sexy, so it just comes down to personal preference, Blondes, Brunettes or Gingers.. lol.. For what it's worth I want the Galaxy S3 when it's released in the U.S.. I'll be up for my upgrade about the same time, so it works out perfectly for me..

Help choosing a phone..

Hi
I'm planning to move on from my SGS 2 to a newer model.. but I'm not able to make up my mind.
I'm interested in the 4G SGS 3 though I've been thinking about the next nexus phone from LG or the upcoming HTC One X+...
My current phone is working perfectly fine but I'm looking for a phone with more speed as well as with 4G/LTE..
Should I wait it out for early next year to have better choices or should I just go in for the SGS 3?
By the way, Samsung is my preferred manufacturer, followed by HTC.. I've no idea how LG phones are in terms of build quality, support, etc.
Thanks in advance. Cheers.

With all of the new nexus phone getting ready to be unveiled I would wait it out and see what sticks
Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using xda app-developers app
Thanks.. I like the SGS3 a lot, though it's just so difficult to decide on one phone...
By the way, here in Finland, we have a deal going on for the Galaxy Nexus, with the current price of 370€ (http://www.verkkokauppa.com/fi/s?s=1&q=51397+or+23156) and is valid until next Monday 21.10 and this seems to be the best deal in Finland at the moment. The standard price is ~450€ I think...
Is there any sense is getting the Galaxy Nexus considering there are the newer Nexus devices coming up? In particular HTC “J Butterfly” Nexus 5 (along with the LG Nexus as mentioned previously)?
Thanks again. Cheers...
Edit: Also, regarding the processor, I'm no expert but from the reviews and reports, I see there are the Tegra 3 processors (like the one in HTC One X+) or the Qualcomm 'snapdragon' processors or Exynos processors and similar... Which is the better one? Should I chose a device that comes with a specific processor if I want to have a speedy, fast, high end phone?
And of course, I would like a manufacturer that regularly updates the OS without major delays whenever a new Android is being released...
Well I have the nexus, and that price is very very high. Ofcourse it is new from store but I have my nexus for 275 euro's. Second hand but only 6 month's old. Great phone but if I were you, I should wait for the gs4. Depends on how fast you need a phone, considering the gs4 is coming out in march 2013. If you can't wait I should definately buy the HTC one X+ or the GS3.

Thanks a lot.
I'm not in a real hurry to get a new phone as my current SGS2 is working great (and there is a possibility that JB will arrive soon for the SGS2)... But I just wanted to kind of 'upgrade' from the SGS2 to a more powerful, newer phone... Hence my questions regarding should I really wait (though I understand it's a kind of silly question considering how many new devices keep popping up every month) or just go in for a model such as the SGS3 or HTC One X+ that's been proven to be a great phone....
Basically I can wait for the new one.. I'm looking at having a new one by March/April 2013.
If you can wait just wait Mate, I know your feelings so many new phones but can't choose a good one and every time there is coming a new one out.

Work phone with an exact requirement/feature
Background:
I have just bought a Motorola Defy Plus. The reason I purchased it was - I wanted a phone that could allow me t record work calls and Defy Plus seemed promising as it enjoys good amount of support in the developers here and it was like very cheap. Now when I see the work involved in rooting and flashing custom rom I find myself not too sure about my capability of managing the whole process. Even if I do manage the rooting and flashing the custom rom, I still do not have any definitive information if call recording will be possible
New search:
Given the above now I am exploring any other phones that will allow me to take care of this requirement of recording my calls incoming and outgoing , without speaker, in the stock straight out of the box condition. Besides this particular requirement my usage of the phone is very mundane - some voice calls, minimal texting , little bit of email, no games , minimal camera, once in a while a couple of minutes of music if ever.
So if any of you can give me a suggestion i.e. which phone and which app - if you have a working combo - which will solve my problem shall appreciate it very much.
Cheers
Wait, even if the nexus devices aren't to your liking they are going to drive the price of current devices down. I have the SGS3 but sources / docs for exynos processors are sketchy so support isn't stellar. TBH if support matters go with nexus although you'll have to sacrifice sd support.

SD support meaning expandable SD card support/feature?
Well.. that's another thing I'd like to have (I forgot to mention before)... I need a phone that will enable me expand my storage with an external SD card.

Me too
Forget the galaxy nexus it is getting a little bit old i decided to go ahead whit the s3 and i have no complaints..
Speed is awesome
Battery life gets me from 9am to 11pm depending on how you/i use it.
Camera is good ( there is noise in low light shots )
Build quality is the same as the s2 ..
I dont know why but i got a feeling that lg making a nexus will be a mess..

Galaxy S3
I would recommend the G3. You can wait for the next phone to come up but you'll find that there is always a new phone about to be launched so you can wait forever. I've recently transitioned to the g3 and enjoy it very much. Liked it a lot better once I rooted and put a JB rom on it.
I'd go with a sgs3

Note 10.1 user jumping ship???

There sure is a lot of used Galaxy note's (10.1) black and white for sale on ebay.
You wonder why they are jumping ship??????????
Is there a new tablet coming soon??????
Just don't get it because I love mine.
.
Actually, if you narrow your search to used units it's only 129 units and that number includes some mis-chacterized accessories only, like cases. Search on used iPads and the search pulls up over 7, 000 items, including over 400 of the newer iPad minis.

Agreed. Got my 4G a month ago and have no plans to let this thing go anytime in the near future.
:highfive:
I wouldn't jump ship unless they release a 13+ inch wacom-enabled tablet.. And even then, why would I sell this one off?
I was looking to jump ship bout its was from a wifi ship to a 3g ship.
When I got my unit I was told the 3G was not in the uk, instead of mi doing wat I normal Do which is ignore the sales person and investigate I just bought the wifi and skipped home happy like a bunny with a bags of easter eggs.
I do wish I looked around more and got the Note 3g in grey. I feel the grey looks much better.

Why spend 100€ more on the 3g version?
I've got a 3g Hotspot for 19€, put in on my jacket and have nice net on the N8010, N7000 and laptop, all the times, everywhere!
Just my 2 cents...
Regards
Nuno
More to the point - why would this matter anyway?
I didn't buy my Note to be one of the crowd - I bought it because it was exactly what I needed. When someone else makes an Android tablet with a Wacom pen let me know..
The reason is I have been travelling a lot and would be useful too have a 3g note.
Yes the option of a 3g pocket would be gud and your 2 cents is worth it Nuno, but I was looking at the extras of 3g plus 32gb base memory.
I don't care what others have and never will since others dont make me money unless being hired by them 4 private work. So I don't know were u are coming from since I never said I was a crowd follower werewolf.
So yes wolf it would matter to me having 3G plus 32gig (24gig after pre installed apps etc) basic instead of 10gig plus 32, 64 or 128gig sdcard
I dont play games but carry a lot of data for satellite setup and codes, tv repair, computer networking and builds plus electrician house plans and 17th edition updates.
So I hope that clear things for you wolf.

Exactly. If and when something comes along, of similar size and equal stylus accuracy, I'll take a look. For the time being I'm more than pleased with my Note 10.1, even more so now that I've finally bought a small keyboard to use too.

Anyone moving to the Galaxy S4???

Hey, so after 2 years I will be moving to the S4, I was just wondering if any of u were coming with me?
i might move to the note 3 when it comes out
I've looked at it but decided it to be overly expensive. It's around $700 unlocked (probably grey market no warranty), just too much for a phone especially when my SGS4G still operating just fine. I did some calculations for "subsidized" phones with plans, but they can be even more expensive, around $800 over 2-year contract. I did the comparison with a $45 single line unlimited everything StarightTalk service, final cost over 24 months.
There are rumors that Nexus 4 LTE will be announced in few days during Google I/O, I'll wait to see what comes from that.
Yeah... my brother's getting a SGS4 (moving off of his old Nexus One or something else similarly painful) but my SGS4G is still doing well, albeit chomping through batteries on an increasing pace. May join you eventually, but for now... Eh, our devs are awesome.
I will be as soon as my contract ends this month. I will just keep my sgs4g as a back up but it will be nice to finally have a freakin LED flash lol
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Yea I will too! Actually, I already did! ;D its so freaking EPIC!! And the screen...so beautiful. If u are moving phones, u won't be disappointed. I am gonna miss this forum tho...the SGS4G was my first smartphone. And the community will never be the same as this one. It has been a great 2 years with the SGS4G. Thanks to everyone who made it an awesome phone and I hope development keeps on going forward. I'll still visit every once in a while though just to see how things are doing.
My phone got washed in the washing machine by accident 2 days ago, so I went to Tmobile and got the new s4 today.

I don't know how many of you have heard this rumor but supposedly there will be a Galaxy S4 version running stock AOSP. It's supposed to be announced tomorrow at Google I/O. If they price it the same as the Nexus 4, I'm getting the S4 Google Edition instead. I'm in need of a new phone.
http://www.geek.com/android/samsung-galaxy-s4-google-edition-to-be-announced-at-google-io-1555174/
New phone means that I don't need my SGS4G to be operational, which means that I will be doing a lot of deving on it this summer. !
Yes, I saw that rumor. Will it be less expensive than the Samsung S4 version?

Hopefully we'll know later today... . I'm so stoked I'm actually programming for the sgs4g!
My guess if Google really moved from LG to Samsung with their Nexus phone it will not be exactly the same as S4. Most probably it will not have MicroSD, the battery will not be easily swappable, and I doubt they install FullHD screen to keep the price low enough to match the Nexus line. But we'll see, still may become a good choice.
Well, it is confirmed today with a starting price of $649 for the 16gb version.

For an unlocked off contract phone that's not that bad. However, those of you that have the ATT S4 should just wait for the Google model to drop. That ROM should be a pretty easy port to the ATT version.

Should I Upgrade now or later?

So. My mom told me that she's gonna buy me a new phone before I go back go high school, which is 8/26. Now, I don't know if I should upgrade now or later. Obviously, I have T-Mobile. And I love this phone. But truth be told, its getting old. The reason why I ask, is well. Because there's just not so many options on T-Mobile right now.. 1 HTC, 2 Samsung, 2 Google/LG, 1 Nokia, and the new (to us) xperia z. So I turn to you guys, to see what you'd do. If now, what phone would you get? If later.. wait for which phone? iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S/6? New nexus phone? Cheers, guys.

First of all, if your mom is like mine I would upgrade now before she changes her mind lol. I gave that a lot of thought but honestly every phone is going to have its ups n downs so just pick one and enjoy it. If it were me, I would just go with an s4 and call it a day. Htcone is nice, but I think a plastic build comes with a lot of benefits.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769
Lol. Yeah true that. The reason why I'd get the s4 over the one, is that modding it is easier.. well not easier, but I'm already comfortable with Odin. But, I have just always loved HTC and HTC sense.-.

I've never cared for sense. Or TouchWiz. Or any stock framework really. I always do my research and make sure there are a lot of options before I buy a phone. CyanogenMod support is a must. If CM supports it, basically everything does.
and SHAME ON YOU for even mentioning iPhone! lol jk, jk.
If it were me, I'd go with the Nexus 4 if your mom could spring it without breaking the bank (I know you mentioned LG/Google, so idk if that was an option or not). Otherwise, my choice would be the S4 or the Xperia. It'd be a tough call either way.
Get a phone with lte . I tried the exhilarates lte. It is awesome.

Might not be a bad idea if your mom is still willing to buy it for you and that's the type of phone you like. Personally I'm still waiting for a Nexus 5 announcement. I'm ready for an upgrade (T-Mobile actually let me out of my Blaze contract 6 months early so I could switch to the new unlimited plan) and, if I were choosing amongst the phones available now, I'd probably get the Nexus 4. Unless I had someone buying the phone for me, if cost were not an issue I'd go the S4 Google Play edition.
