Verizon offer gear s2 - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Anybody see that verizon is offering your choice of gear vr or the gear s2 with a pre-order of the s7 or s7 edge?

Interesting.. gear s2 is worth a lot more.

I already have a gear VR and an S2... So I'll get the S2 as it is worth more on ebay.

I just spoked to a Verizon rep and he told me that it is only the WiFi model.

Weird. I already have mine ordered and the s2 set up for its own line. The rep was a manager that I talked to and he'd been setting them up all day.

I'm really digging the look of the Gear S2 Classic... probably gonna sell the standard model it upgrade to that.

Isn't the s2 a promo being delivered weeks after the launch date?

Apparently you can only get the Gear S2 if you do device payments.

Only if you do it through the website. Of you call in they will not only honor the promotion but will also send you the watch with your phone so you can get them at the same time.

That's what I'm doing but also assuming you get it if you buy outright as well.

You must have gotten lucky. The terms say a 299 watch which is how much the wifi watch costs.

Same price as the 3g watch. They actually already sent it out and it should be here Monday ?

The gear vr that I ordered at the same time will ship by the 2nd and my phone will ship by the 11th.

I pre-ordered through the website. So I should call in and ask them to ship me a free gear s2?
Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

I pre-ordered over the phone. It wouldn't hurt to try though. I'd have you order and order location numbers handy.

I've tried calling in twice and they keep pointing me to the samsung promotions website. No luck for me

So you got the S2 3G version? Does that require a separate data plan, if so, how much is that? Will it only work on Verizon network?
Thinking about pre-ordering by calling Verizon, but want to gift the S2 to someone on another carrier.
TIA

Gear 2 Black Friday $100

I was talking to an AT&T phone store employee about his Gear S at lunch today. He told me that they are going to have the Gear 2 for $100 this Friday. Sounds like they are blowing them out!
I got mine for $0
Sent from my SM-G900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Should be the gear 2 neo only for 100$. Still not a bad deal, and... Getting something for 0$? Somebody else buy it for you, or is that a 5 finger discount?
Probably free with phone purchase.

"Samsung mobile insights" program, buddy. They've been giving out free phones and all kinds of stuff for testers. Just email them and get your hands on some goodies. Got a note 3, an S5, and a gear 2 so far
from my S5 (of course running Alliance beast, I mean ROM)

Their website doesn't show the regular gear 2. Is it just in-store then?

How did you get one without having to purchase a phone?
It's true. Regular Gear 2 is 99.99. Saw the print out of the Black Friday specials at the local AT&T store. No stores in the area have any stock but they let me order 2 for $99 last night. See this thread here http://slickdeals.net/f/7441796-at-t-galaxy-gear-2-99-in-store-only-ymmv?v=1

Verizon: Samsung Pay support is coming in a software update

Idk if this has already been posted but I figured you guys might be as excited as me. Check out the link.

Customer service told me it's already out last night. But when I asked how I can get it he said to wait a couple days for the update. I'm going to take that with HUGE grain of salt though.

There is quite a big difference between the two.
1) Android pay is only NFC capable. Samsung pay is not.
2) Samsung pay uses NFC AND MST technology for mobile payments, depending on the terminal.
If you would like more information, I would suggest visiting samsung website referencing to samsung pay.

Unless Samsung extends the promotion, it doesn't look like we get the free charger.

Just email samsung and ask them for a free charger. It seems like they are giving them away like candy anyway.

I'm going to assume you're being sarcastic. But it's the same one that they have been offering for free through various deals since the initial launch of the note 5.

No I was being serious. I knew they were giving away some wireless chargers with the Note 5 at purchase, but didn't know they were doing it for Samsung Pay too.
It is a crappy charger anyway... Any 3 coil one on amazon for $15 will run circles around this free one in terms of placement and connection stability.

Anyone receive their $100 Samsung credit for adding card to Samsung pay?

I just registered my card on my brother's phone, filled out the forms to claim my $100. Now I'm just wondering how long it takes to receive the credit. Anyone get theirs yet?
6-8 weeks, usually.

Thanks! I still don't know what I'm going to us it on though. Was thinking the gear vr but I know I'll only use it a few times and just leave it in a drawer or something lol

You can give it to me if you don't use it.
Not the $100 GC, but the $50 check.
I registered on 12/07/15, got approval today, 12/15/15. Haven't received it yet, but email states ~4 weeks.
Also registered for the Gifts of the Season promo. No approval as of yet.
Well, it's been 2 weeks and I haven't gotten my code. Calling Samsung is useless and none of the reps knew what to do except give me a link to email their "promotions" department.
I submitted for mime on Nov. 25th, and had it approved the 9th of December. I used it to order a gear vr, didn't have to pay a dime for anything and when it ships... Whenever that is, I won't have to pay for that either. So win win. Good luck.

Tmobile Gear S3

Anyone else using with your V20. I just got it today. Haven't played with it very much. I'm on VZW and did notice using VZW messages + app I can't reply from the watch. I'll play more tomorrow and report back. Thanks

How to get the free Gear VR with ore-order?

Just wondering how I get the free Gear VR with my T-Mobile pre order.

On tmo use the app included. That is how I did it, much simpler, worth taking the time to sign up for a Samsung account if you havent done so already.
