[Q] Exchange old phone with newer model? - General Questions and Answers

hello everybody!
i have a question..
firstly, you must know that i am owner of a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000. I bought it two months ago. now, Samsung has released the new Galaxy Note 2.. And here is my question, Can i exchange my Galaxy Note and some money for a Galaxy Note 2? I googled it and i didnt't found anything, but, on some galaxy note 2 reviews, i see some comments like "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i exchange my galaxy note n7000 with it!
is that possible? thanks for all and really sorry for my bad english!

question : do you really need a note 2? what this new phone can do for you differently than the old?
phone: sgs2 GT-I9100
kernel : dorimanx 5.79beta
main rom: rr 2.7
second rom: cm 9.1
baseband: I9100XXLQ6

Specs are slightly better but I wouldn't get the note 2 right away, unless it had way better specs.

i want the note 2 for quad core and 2gb ram which are far more better than galaxy note 1..i just wanna know if i can exchange mine note for the new !

bump. none has the answer to my question?

Dude why don't you go back to the store and ask it there if you're lucky they'll exchange it but i really think they won't
don't forget to hit the thanks button:d

The problem is that their English is worse than yours. "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i exchange my galaxy note n7000 with it!" is actually "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i can sell my galaxy note n7000 and buy the Note 2!"
As a former cellphone store owner, I can tell you that unless you were a very good customer (maybe you'd been upgrading phones with me for 10 years), I wouldn't exchange a phone with you. And if I did you wouldn't like how little I'd give you for yours, even if it's only 2 months old. It's used and I have to sell it as used, so it's not worth very much to me.
Selling it privately will get you a lot more money. (A dealer might give you US$50 for it, and I'd give you that much too. Of course a dealer might tell you he's giving you more for it, but then charge you full list price - or even more - for the Note 2.)

[Q] Should I get the SGS2?

I'm not sure if this is the right section, but it seemed like it.
Anyway, I have an HTC Inspire and I've been thinking of getting a Samsung Galaxy S 2, but I'm not sure if I should get it, or if I should wait until I can get an LTE phone. What do you think?

You could get the Galaxy Note instead
You could also wait for the Nexus Prime

There's no doubt the Galaxy SII is an awesome phone.. And while my vote would be to pick one up, the Nexus Prime is around the corner like EmoBoiix3 mentioned.
Then again if you keep waiting for the next phone to be released you'll be waiting forever.
Is the Galaxy Note a phone or tablet?? It said it was like 5.3 inches or something like that...
And will the Nexus Prime or the Galaxy Note be on AT&T?

The Galaxy Note is a big phone .
I'm not sure about the American operators though .
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App
I read somewhere that it would be coming to America on AT&T 3G/4G bands...How far away is the Note and the Nexus Prime? Also, do you think 450 shipped is a good price for the GS2? I'm not sure if it is, because if I wait a little while, the price will probably go down a good amount.

Galaxy S III or Galaxy Nexus

Galaxy S III or Galaxy Nexus

Depends completely on what you're looking for. All in all, however, by the time it actually comes out (I'm guessing at least April), I'd say the S3. Vastly improved specs, rumors of waterproofing, ICS (though soon outdated by Jellybean, so if you're looking to stay updated your best bet is still to stick with that Nexus). Battery life might be an issue.
However, the above assumes that both devices are out. If, on the other hand, you're asking whether to get a GN now or a SG3 later, this does not rule out the former by a long shot. GN has its own advantages (in particular being "futureproof") and it's just a matter of how long you feel like waiting.

Interesting considering the SGSIII doesn't exist yet.
OP, as the poster above said, it depends what you're looking for. You really have to give more details... and when it comes down to it, why are you letting other people make your choice for you. A smartphone/tablet is a very personal device, and no 2 people are the same.
but Samsung Galaxy S III not-released
i think, better is Galaxy S III
We sitting in the same boat, which my case like this
XeactorZ said:
Hi all, previously I was decided to buy Samsung Galaxy Nexus
but due to some stupid reason (too expensive) by my parents which don't let me buy Samsung Galaxy Nexus
which need me get good result in order in order to buy new phone (any price that I want)
if now then the price is totally can't even get Samsung Galaxy S II
so, back to the question which is same as title
and since gonna got MWC event after 2days, and sure got new phone announce
and also for the upcoming Samsung own event on 15th March, which maybe announce Samsung Galaxy S III
at the end, is it worth to wait those phone that announce either in MWC / Samsung Galaxy S III (act it as got this phone)
but if wait also need wait to release, then those Samsung, HTC, LG, and other officially bring in to my country, which not the unit from other country which called as original set
so, let's say if I successfully convince my parents to let me buy Samsung Galaxy Nexus now because I eyeing since last year December
and when gonna buy, know the price and say too expensive, ask me to wait it to drop, lol even now Samsung Galaxy S II at my country also more expensive that the budget they set for me (although is using my own money to buy, but is my parents controlling my price)
if you are facing this situation, you choose to get the Samsung Galaxy Nexus now or wait those phone announce in MWC / Samsung own event which will at least wait few month to reach your country ???
*please vote then leave comment and tell me your reason
Thanks

Galaxy Nexus is the BEST!!
both from samsung, and gs3 is newer so take that one. But use the standard ics rom.
Yeah I just got off the horn with Samsung, he's a pretty cool guy. He said the SIII is way better.
SGS 3 is much better ....
I say just buy the nexus, as soon as the SGS3's launched there'll be another phone coming, you'll be waiting forever
Galaxy S III much better...
Galaxy S III!!!
I personally think the SGS VI will blow both of these out of the water...
Love the idiots that recommend a phone that doesn't exist yet or have confirmed specs released for it...
I have a galaxy nexus. It's my first smartphone and I think it works really well. If you can wait for an unannounced Galaxy SIII then by all means, but when will you stop waiting?
Galaxy SIII
i think that the Galaxy s3 is better in my opinion, the nexus wasnt even up to the same as par as the Galaxy s2 lol
Depends on if you want to wait, the SGSIII isn't even technically an announced phone yet if I remember correctly so we're looking at least 2 months plus before a release I'm sure.
Gnexus i think...agree with the other that sgs3 not even release yet.

If you have to do it that way. Galaxy nexus international till there is a gs3

[Q] galaxy note 3?

hello xda, i have a question. i have an upgrade to my contract in june/july and i want to get a galaxy note 2 but i do not think that that will be a good time since they released it last September and will probably release another one around that time. is there any way that i could get vodafone (uk) to hold off my upgrade until the note 3 comes out? what do you think? should i get a note 2 at that time or what? can you hold off an upgrade? thanks in advance.:laugh:
I don't think they are gonna release note 3 any way sooner to s4. S4 has been dated for may. So note3 will be like 2-3 months after that.
PS - at that time if note 3 is out already, then y wud u wanna get note 2?

I said s4 is dated for may. Not note 3. That's the time they have released all the S devices until now and it's also confirmed officially.
life!
But I don't think the virtual laser keyboard that they are featuring in s4 is possible...its impressive if what they say is real...it projects the keyboard to your desk and you touch your desk surface to type! Whoa...

Help me pick a new phone. 4.3 and above

Hi guys. I had G2 for over a year now and I feel like I need something new. I don't want to go full on crazy and get note 2 or s3, because of the price.
Basically I want 4.3 screen or more. Good camera, flashlight(yes).
How does Note1 fares compared to note2 ?
The first device is still affordable or is it nowhere near note2 and I shouldnt even care ?
What about xperia s or samsung galaxy s2 ?
You could get the Nexus 4, its cheap plus instant updates.

PM me if you need help
It's not cheap. It is alost the same price as note2 or s3....
Poland here btw
edit: That means only LG version is avialable here
S2 or nexus / nexus 4.
Note is different from note 2 mostly in hardware, like quad core, 2 gig RAM and stuff.
They are giving all exclusive features of note 2 to note 1 in the premium suite (as they call it)
LIFE! Live it to the best!
I repeat. All nexus phones are no go here. LG is selling them in Poland for crazy price compared to what google wants for it.
So are You saying that s2 or note are both a good chooice or note1 with it's "premium suite" ?

I replied before seeing your post.
And I was also talking about the Galaxy Nexus from Samsung.
S2 is good. Even it got some goodies from s3 in the JB update.
If ya prefer big screen get note.
LIFE! Live it to the best!
I guess you dont like windows phone...Lumia 920 would be a good choice for camera
I don't say it's a bad system but once I had android, I can't go back

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3

I heard this from a friend and I want to make sure that this information is correct. Is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 coming out soon? if so when and where can I find this info so I can read it for my self?
I also have the Original Samsung Galaxy Tablet 10.1 (WiFi) and I am running 4.0.4 and I am wanting to know if and when 4.1.2 or Jelly Bean will be officially released for the Original Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. I do not want to root or download a Non Official rom to my tab.
I do not know about Galaxy Tab 3. But I do know that the original Galaxy Tab 10.1 is not included in the list of devices Samsung plan to update to Jelly Bean. So ICS 4.0.4 is the last update you are getting. If you want Jelly Bean, however, you will have to root your tab and install custom rom. I also use the original tab and in addition to ICS I also run 4.1.2 and the current Jelly Bean 4.2.2, both courtesy of an XDA Developer, Pershoot.

(Deleted. I misread the thread.)
There was some mentioning a couple of weeks back that this GT-P8200 got its BT certification and meanwhile also the WIFI one http://www.tabletblog.de/2013/03/samsung-galaxy-tab-3-plus-wlan/
They even claimed it could become announced together with the Galaxy S IV
lets see whether and when it appears - still thinking of to sonys xperia Tablet Z or the Asus TF700 as an alternative (with the latter being a bit rusty)
hopefully soon

I have no inside information about a pending release of a Tab 3, or anything else for that matter, but I noticed something interesting at the AT&T store yesterday. They have a special going on right now if you buy a Samsung S3 phone for $199, (with a contract), you can also purchase a Tab 2 10.1, (with a SIM card) for an additional $199. Not a bad deal if you want a Tab 2. I am sure that the S3 will enjoy a big price cut as soon as the S4 hits the stores, however.
We all know that the S3 will soon be replaced by the S4 and retailers are probably looking for ways to clear out the existing inventory. The same might be going on with the Tab 2. This could be an indication that the Tab 3 is on the way as well. Time will tell.
almost a month later and still no news on a new 10' flagship tablet from Samsung. The same old news get recycled every now and then but nothing tangible.
Hopefully after the launch of the S4 we start hearing real "new" news about a octo core powered retina all sing all dance tablet that is available in the not too distant future
don't want to wait till x-mas ...

I was hoping to hear something similar by now, too... my guess (hope) was that details would start to slip out about a new uber-powered GTab and a possible release date when the S4 was ready - but the lack of noise makes me wonder if a Nexus 10 is in my near future instead. The 16 and 32GB versions are in stock... wait a couple more weeks for some news, or 2 days for a new toy from Google on my doorstep... decisions, decisions.
galaxy note = galaxy tab + stylus???
http://www.theverge.com/2013/4/29/4281278/samsung-galaxy-tab-3-announcement
Looks like they're basically just updating the look of the Tab 2 7" to match the Galaxy lineup hardware design. Almost identical specs to last year's model. And no mention of a 10" model.
I have the Tab 2 7" and don't want a much bigger device (although I could live with 8".) But I was at least hoping for a resolution bump. Hopefully the Nexus 7.7 rumors will pan out.
Is it me or are the specs for the Galaxy Tab 3 super underwhelming. Dual core 1.2 ghz? Thats what I have my 1st gen galaxy tab running at lol.
i bought an att samsung galaxy tab 10.1 sgh i497 yesterday and im dissapointed that it doesnt have built in phone and messaging, there is a mod on this forum for the older model which i forget the model number they listed but its 3g, the one i have is LTE , i hope someone develops a phone mod for this i really wanted it to be a phablet

Here is what you are looking for
well at least the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7 inch has been released and it is a little less wide than the tab 2. micro usb charger is nice and aluminum bumpers, other than that everything has already been said.
I am curious when developers will post their findings as I am not pleased with the stock rom. Wifi kicks out after being idle.
SM-T210R is the model number
Here are some pics with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1!
Am I missing something or is it basically the same tablet we have but with a different processor and IR blaster?
