So.. where's the Samsung i7500? - Page 2

Anonymous · ‎27-07-2009

I knew I shouldn't of got excited, the rumours were that the samsung i7500 would be avaliable today on 02 ... but nothing on the website.

How much longer do I have to wait? I will be strong and not crumble and buy a G1.

Has anyone heard anymore from 02 about when it will be availiable?

O2 DE started supplying the Galaxy at the end of June. It looks like they had a month's exclusivity on the device, so the review handsets from Samsung were incomplete.

How much are people expecting to pay for the i7500, on what tariff and contract length?

Do you think that O2's lack of publicity on this could be so as not to dilute sales of the 3G S?

Interesting point, you never know. Then again, the Pre has pride of place on the home page, so who knows?!?

In my paranoid mind i don't want to tell 02 how much i'd pay for one... but im expecting to pay around £150 on an 18month contract with unlimited data allowance.

I'd be shocked and a little disapointed in them if it cost more and offered less minutes/texts than the iphone.

Their lack of fan fare about it might indicate they don't hold much confidence in the Android OS and just want to test the water - so it could be come out at a cheaper price than i think.

Don't quote me on this but I think its being offered PAYG on mainland Europe for around 499 euros.

Also which is quite interesting no one knows if this will be exclusive to 02. I was suprised that Tmobile went for another HTC model and didn't snap this up - they are the Android lead supplier but dropped the ball on this one. So much so that im actucally switching back to 02 after being with Tmobile for a number of years.

I think im getting a little obssesed with it.

I've just spent 5 mins trying out random 02 web address in my borwser bar to see if they have uploaded the page for the i7500 but haven't linked it yet.
i.e

http://shop.o2.co.uk/mobile_phone/Sony_Ericsson/i7500?lastPage=/mobile_phones/Pay_Monthly/page2

But no luck.. maybe you can think of some addresses. If i remember rightly this is how the i7500 was originally leaked .. a russian phone supplier had uploaded the web page waiting for the phone to go live but had no linked the page to anything.

It had better not be August 10th!

I seriously dont get why they cant just tell us the release date. I have heard from online support that it will be out August 4th, however repeat phone calls to O2 customer services are always met with "its not on our computers" so i'm really not sure what to believe.

If its not out on the 4th i'm getting the HTC Hero - even though i dont really want it
