Free Wired Earphone request to Samsung Canada - Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers

Hello Everyone,
Hope you all are safe and doing well. I purchased note 20 ultra from freedom booth in Canada and i have it for about 2 weeks now. I was little late to contact samsung regarding wired earphones so today i finally contacted Samsung official live chat here in canada to request a free pair and the agent told me that here in canada, samsung does not have that promotion for note 20 users. I am attaching a screenshot if anyone wants to see the conversation. So my question is is there anybody here from canada who actually got the akg tuned earphones for free shipped them somehow? If yes how did you guys contacted them?
P.S - i have tried calling 1800-SAMSUNG but they had me on hold for almost half an hour so i ended the call

Thanks for posting this, I posted this information over a week ago in the US thread as well to try and let Canadians know
We in Canada are once again an afterthought for samsung....its getting tiresome thats for sure especially after dropping more than 2k on a device. We didnt even get rhe white version here in Canada either
We expect the same customer experience here as the US gets samsung....pull your head out of your ass and get with the program

Lol, too much hassle for something that won't be used. Wired earphones? No thanks.

I know its not much, but I agree with Force. I'm in US but it should be the same across the board.

I like wired earphones. I have Sony WF-1000MX3 and it runs out of juice pretty easily and having a backup wired pair is a bliss on those times and it's not just why would i hassle for 30$ earphones? It's just when you buy a 2000$ phone you expect few things and the reason why i have always preffered/liked android , especially samsung is because they have always provided basic accessories. If samsung follows apple in what should go in the box, expect just a device in the next note box.

[Available] Samsung Gear VR $199 !!!!!

It's ready to buy!! GO GO GO!
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/wearable-tech/SM-R320NPWSXAR
Ordered mine. Over night delivery. Hoping they ship today!
So I guess no package deal with a gamepad? I thought there was an official announcement that there would be a $250 package.
Anyone have any recommendations for a gamepad to go along with the gear vr?

Damnit, guess I pulled the trigger too soon. Thanks though.
Now I'm dying to see if we can get it to work with CM12. I'll be using CM12 as a daily driver and IF Gear VR works on CM12 then I might buy it. But if it doesn't work, it's not worth the $200 and forced use of TouchWiz. I'd also accept MultiROM if we could get it out our devices, but that also seems unlikely.
Anyway, glad to see Gear VR finally on the market! Hope y'all enjoy it.
Oculus APK
I have the google cardboard, does anyone know if the Oculus apk will be available to those who don't have the VR headset? I was just hoping to check it out before I bought the VR dev kit.
No Gear VR for me. I have glasses.
any VR news for canadians?

Just letting everyone know this is the Innovator Edition meaning you can buy it, but its really a technology release for early adapters of technology and developers. If the technology doesn't take off.... there's a chance they may just scratch this product. Just an FYI....
I didn't catch the incompatibility thing in the description. Is that in the official website?
Mine is sitting here waiting for the update... VZ told me the 18th. I have screen shots of the chat session. Hopefully that was a cautionary date and the rollout will begin today.

It's on their website now, was not yesterday. I spoke with Samsung and they said they found out from Verizon this morning and added it to the site then.
I was just about to by this today, but something told me to hold off and wait and I'm glad that I did. I just seen an article on Android Central stating that it wasn't compatible with Verizon or Sprint variants of the Note 4 at this time, and that the updates will be pushed out by the carriers.
If I would have spent $236 for this device and overnight shipping only to have a temporary plastic paper weight, I would have been extremely pissed.

Ahhh! Nice. I would definitely want to try these out first, though. Seeing is believing.
Also... A friend of mine asked me why Samsung chose to have the plastic overlay over the back of the phone. It blocks the camera. Did they not want people turning on the camera and stumbling around an augmented reality world or something?

If you had a rooted Sprint phone, you could probably steal the required app from a T-Mo device.

Unsure about the S8/+? Must see review!

More a "tour" than a review. There are two kinds of testing, objective and subjective. The latter is more opinion which that video is. I want to see how S-835 and Exynos 8955 compare to each other and their predecessors, how the new Mali and Adreno GPU's stack up, how the new camera's compare to their predecessors and others on the market, battery life and charging time, and brightness and energy use of the new displays. GSMArena, Anandtech, and Notebookcheck are the best at those types of objective tests and they use the same battery of tests consistently across all the devices they test.
Here's Notebookcheck's early hands-on...

Same one for me too (exynos version here though so hopefully can be rooted)
Going to go with the silver version. Felt like a change from the always dark colors, and it might not show fingerprints as badly.
I got stuck behind a fraud alert and now T-Mobile hasn't charged again it's been 2 days should I cancel and order thru Samsung site? I did pay the phone in full well I was going to if it went through hahaha. Whatcha guys think ?

Or you wait three days from when you would have received your pre-order and go in to a T-Mobile store and pick it up there. The pre-order frenzy in the T-Mobile thread is farcical. In two weeks anyone (in the U.S.) who wants a S8 can have one. The amount of energy and time being consumed by some people to get the phone a couple of days ahead of launch seems kind of odd. The irony is, at least with the Note7, AT&T'rs got their phones via FedEx before 95% of T-Mobile'rs got theirs via UPS. And the latter had tracking numbers days earlier. To each their own.

Did they say how long it would take for them to re charge your card? I see people placing orders today and have already been charged and also have shipping labels.
Sorry but it's not a great review. The amateurishness of this guy is evident when he says that the samsung chip is even better than Apple's A10 fusion chip. Also adds a sardonic "sorry apple fans"
Obviously this guy is a novice. Because any reputable You tuber knows and as seen in many videos,the iphone 7 plus wipes the floor with Samsung Galaxy S8. He sounds like a very obvious paid reviewer for Samsung.
Don't get me wrong. I have preordered the S8+. But let's be real here. In terms of sheer performance and optimization, no one can touch the iphones.

LG 7 thinq Canadian thread

Hey fellow Canucks! If you're looking to give feedback, tips & tricks or just rant about ROBELUS this is the place to do it.
I asked LG directly if the Canadian G7 variant will have an unlockable bootloader and unfortunately we won't have that privilege up north. =(

Hey at least we got a free TV with it (In Ontario).
Yup free tv in Alberta too... And that was a pretty sweet deal for me that since I needed both! I bought mine outright through Freedom, using it with koodo. I am pretty happy for now. Hoping that LG keeps its promise of more frequent updates and longer support since they opened a new division dedicated to that.

Speaking of iOS. I find that the LG G7 has the most pleasant haptic feedback of any non iPhone devices. Finally someone figure out which part of Apple to emulate, not to say copy...

Yup. They've had their own "taptic engine" since V30, it's the only one on the android side that has it and it's brilliant! The vibration is such an important aspect of phones that people tend to not notice. Oneplus5/6 has the nastiest vibration that actually becomes a reason for me not to buy one.
Anyone recieve an update on the status of free tv yet?
If my math is accurate , we will be waiting until July 15th before any update. At any rate, im looking forward to a 43" UHD w hdr and google assistant!
The more I use the camera on the G7, the more Im blown away. Its crazy good.
This phone is crazy good. The potential of customization is good enough on G7 to forget about root anyway. The stock ROM is... really good.
My first LG phone. The built quality is good and form factor,the only downside is its slippery so you need a case.

Agreed. I have the LG G7 and the Huawei P20 pro. I was going the keep the G7 and sell the Huawei P20 pro until I accidentally threw it out of my car window...sigh. Now I have to sell my LG G7 which is by far a better phone. So far out of all the phones I've owned in 2018 the G7 comes close 2nd to the S9+ edged out by the dual speakers. This is by far the best LG G series phone. The best phone no one will buy, which is a shame.

I sent in my paper work last week, LG is very sticky on having it correct. I put my emails on the phone and delivery and contract change in the trash folder...had to scramble to get them back to submit the correct info LG wanted. They are most interested to make sure it was pre-ordered between May 18th to May 31st and a proper digital receipt of the purchase. I think I finally gave them what they wanted....But yes I feel middle of July is when they will arrive by....but who really knows.
I just contacted LG regarding the claim and when can we expect the TV. I got this in the reply back.
"Regarding the claim status, as there is a cooling off period to ensure customers are satisfied with the products.
The claims will start to process in the beginning of July.
All claims will be reviewed prior to validation, please allow 6-8 weeks processing time for your claim."
It says "my" claim at the end there but I think it can be generalized to everyone.
I received an email and a text message today about the TV. It says that they're expecting to ship the TV in 4 weeks. Hurray for the new TV in August.
They reviewed this specific TV on RTINGS. https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/lg/uk6300
Don't expect to be wowed but it's not a terrible TV in anycase and a FREE one at that.
Now, waiting for a method to root this phone... *crossing fingers*
Anyone receive their tv yet? Still waiting on mine.
Just wanted to let you know that I got my TV yesterday. It has lots of blacklight bleeding so I am talking to someone in support to get it replaced.

Good to know. Hopefully mine comes soon then!
Got mine a more than a month ago. Backlight bleed is at minimal level. IPS displays will never have inky blacks so I was expecting something like that. Overall I'm satisfied because I kept my expectations low.

Damn lucky you. I emailed them Sunday and they replied yesterday saying that there's a big backlog due to higher than expected sales.
I was worried that it had shipped and either didn't make it or someone stole it off my porch. Just need to wait it out I guess

Galaxy watch

Can I ask why no one is discussing the new watches?
I have searched and cannot find a thread for this or a dedicated new forum page.
I am probably just being dumb but if there is such a thread could someone kindly direct me to it.
Thanks.

Thanks, I have seen thy thread.
Also I think I have seen every single you tube on this watch (twice over) I especially liked the first unboxings by Tim Schofield which came out yesterday.
I am really excited for this watch (even though I have the S3 Frontier)
Mine arrives on 6th September. Fingers crossed for early deliveries!

Why?
Is bixby and 100 mah battery worth 350 euro? And the removal of MST?
I accept the upgrade is not massive but I was always torn between the S3 Classic or Frontier and I believe that this is a perfect blend of the two. So essentially it it just aesthetics for me.
I got the Frontier second hand for £180 and Samsung are giving me £100 trade in so I think overall it is a reasonable price to pay.
Also the mst is totally irrelevant to me as I never use my watch for payment, always happy to just use my phone.
I am interested on those who are receiving theirs today in the USA. Please let us have your reviews.

For me the fact that I can go swimming with it now is worth the upgrade. I didn't use MST on my Gear S3 anyways. I ordered from BestBuy and I got an email I can pick it up today. So will grab it on my way home from work.

Can you test whatsapp? Change something or is still like s3? You can use bixby for send new WhatsApp message ?
Well so far I'm not impressed. Its been a little over 24 hours of light use and my battery is at 75%. The galaxy app says 2 days 12 hrs left, so that would put the battery life somewhere around 3 and 1/2 days about 1 1/2 days shorter then they claim (5 days). The Bixby app is horrible, if I ask the weather or a question it takes a very long time to respond compared to the S-Voice of S3, at one point it even froze. The daily briefing feature is kinda cool but I assume the S3 will get this in an update. Anyways as it stands now not sure it was worth the upgrade.

I upgraded from the LTE Gear S2. This was a huge upgrade for me in my opinion. I didn't use Samsung Pay on the S2 because it didn't have MST so I'm not really missing anything. I love the battery life of this watch. My old S2 barely made it through a work day. The one thing I miss from the S2 is the Timer app. I used it when cooking. There is no app like it on the Galaxy Watch.
I also would like to see the SmartThings integration with the watch. The Samsung ad shows this, but no app on the watch. I have lots of lights and other items that would be nice to control on the watch. I hope that this will be a new app that gets pushed out with an upgrade.
Overall, I love the new Galaxy Watch.

Yep I'm in the US. The Timer App and the Stop watch app have to be manually downloaded like the S3. Why those 2 aren't on by default is beyond me.

^this.
I waited to see the new Galaxy Watch with all the rumors about it but once it was announced with a bigger battery at the expense of MST i just bought the S3 Frontier 2 days later for $179 new from Best Buy (had them price match). I was looking at the S3 Frontier for 3 reasons, battery life, MST, and bezel/look. I'm getting 3-4 days on a charge so don't need more battery at the expense of MST and to get this look it's in a smaller form factor so this made no sense to spend $350 over the $179 price
I mean, just look at this video, everything is the same, the gear wearable app looks the same, RAM is the same, the speed/performance is the same. TLDR: If you are a pro swimmer then get the galaxy watch, thats it.

I finally found the app. Not sure why it was showing up when I was searching for the app Timer

fyi, got a firmware update this morning. R800XXU1BRH3 - Improved Samsung Health Experience, Improved device stability.
Now the watch has been released surely there should be a dedicated page for this on XDA? Have I missed it somehow?
Is interest in this watch so small?
Can't wait for the release in the UK.

Samsung Buds

From Sammobile: "The free Galaxy Buds promotion may not be available in all the markets.
We have seen Samsung coming up with different pre-order offers in different markets in the past, so there is no guarantee that this free Galaxy Buds promotion will be available in all other regions. Nevertheless, it is safe to presume the pre-order period and the offer will be applicable to at least a few other markets around the world.
The Galaxy Buds are not yet released and are expected to be launched alongside the Galaxy S10 at the Unpacked event. Going by the previous models, they are expected to cost around $200 at launch, which translates to a sizeable discount for those pre-ordering the Galaxy S10."
...have you heard anything about getting them here in the US? I only see a $50 offer for accessories on pre-order registration page.
I dont see any mention of free buds in canada

Why are the prices so high? The s10 plus is supposed to be 1000.
BTW I have icon x 2018 and they cost 200 original. If these cost 130, then they should be considered less luxurious than the ones I have. Should I even buy the new ones?

No "buds" in Canada (crazy as that sounds), but min. $200 off with ANY phone trade in. You could by a $20 pay go phone and use that. Pretty much same as getting buds for free.
I am sorry, but I can't seem to find any info on my dumb question
Are these buds for only listening, or they are also used as a way to make phone calls. Talk too?

Thanks. So they are equipped with a microphone too?
I'd like to know how they work. I'm not a music listener. If I buy them, I'd do it because I world want to use them as means to make phone calls

2 mics actually from what I saw, one internal and one out. Calls, music, all there. Sound quality...TBD
Yeah 2 mics apparently I pre-ordered but will probably end up selling the buds as I got the jabras already and I love them.
We'll see how the audio quality is I guess.
Never had anything like these, so looking forward to trying them!
i talked to costco wireless and t-booth both said with pre order you get your order code , once receive the phone submit it online and register and sammy with send out the buds. anyone else heard of this then if others saying no buds in Canada ?
How they compare to AirPods?

uh...,we'll have to wait to find out until our first hand, or rather first ear experience materializes
I'm not that excited with the free buds, other than the smaller size, I prefer my IconX. I'm happy enough with my S9 but for some odd reason I decided to jump on the trade-in which made the S10 less than $350.
