I know there's some interest from people here about this device, so I thought I'd post this link:

I'd say theirs been a little bit of interest shown by some of the regulars here.

Has their been any prices established yet ?

Thanks for the link @Bambino I need the phone before I go overseas for 3 months at the end of October so may well end up preordering when it becomes available.

Looks like preorders will start Sept. 26, @jonsie Only thing I could find regarding price was this quote from PC Advisor:

'We said the Note 4 is likely to come in between £550 and £600 – similar to the Galaxy S5 - and it seems we were right as Clove has the smartphone up for pre-order at £575 inc VAT.'

YThat's the sort of price I've budgeted for and willing to pay. Not sure whether to go with Samsung or CPW at this point but I've registered with CPW so I'll see what they come up with. Although they are still showing the Note 3 at £300 more than anyone else so possibly not!

Just incase anyone thinks about going to an experience store to pre order don't bother I went on Friday and they are only taking pre orders for new contracts not handset only I wasn't very happy at all to say the least

O2 did have the price up at £509.99 on refresh (which incidentally was the same as the Note 3) however this has since been removed.

Samsung have the Note 3 up at £549 so can't see it the 4 being cheaper sadly.

Giffgaff who i understand provide sim free handsets have the Note 3 at £439 so it might be cheaper there than Samsung direct and sim free.

Hi Damien,

Did they say why or when they would allow you ?

Nope Bob I argued a bit with them as I made a special journey they just said only for new contracts point blank I did ask about sim free and supposedly they didn't know

Not a good experience 😞

Hopefully they'll change tact soon or people will start to look elsewhere like direct from Samsung , CPW or even Cex !

Seems a bit of a bad choice by Samsung not to sell the phone sim free in store when you can probably get it for a similar, if not better price online. Must be a reason for it, I suppose.

I did post this link yesterday re Clove's price for the Note 4 ...Total £575 inc vat) i think they are taking pre-orders now?

Also @jonsie I check with CPW daily for the Note 3 prices (thanks for posting the exact one I want in merlot red) :smileywink:. I can confirm that their price for the Note 3 rose overnight when Phones4U collapsed

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Launch

jonsie — Sun, 21 Sep 2014 10:44:13 GMT

They do take the money straight away so it's better in my own account until the phone is released. Hopefully prices will be similar elsewhere as I have no experience of this online retailer.

Sorry @Cleoriff Never saw it.

By way of contrast, if anyone's interested, here's a really good impartial hands on review of the Note Edge:

Personally I am looking for as many links as possible @Bambino I had hoped that the price for the Note 3 would drop when the Note 4 was due for release. I have seen no evidence of that at all....sadly

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Launch

Bambino — Sun, 21 Sep 2014 12:45:30 GMT

It will drop eventually, but not immediately. You have to remember that the Note 4 is available preorder only at the moment, so until it's completely on the market, and there is more concentration on that device, the Note 3 is still at the fore. As long as demand for the Note 3 remains strong, the price won't come down, although you know it will have to soon. Patience.....:smileywink:
