Has anyone bought from the above mentioned link?

If not.. whats opinion of the members of this forum? Does it look safe and should I go for it because it certainly is very cheap compared to street price I'm getting in Mangalore. Here lowest i was offered was Rs 46500.

Ok it seems as I am a new member i am not allowed to post links.. I am asking about the link posted by HEXOR, post #1102 page 111 of this thread

Thanks for the help. :o

I think the seller is legit. He has a 99.8 % rating on 1000+ sales. Looks fine to me.

Also he has sold 37 note 3. You can check his reviews from recent note 3 buyers.

Replacement of Parts- Note 3- India Version

Faced a headphone problem in my Note 3 so got it replaced for free from service center, they made me wait for 3 days

The tricky bit was that Note 3 headphones are not even available as accessories for sale over the counter in the market.

In the service center through the IMEI the service center personnel was able to check for the authenticity of purchase and registration in India. I checked with him about Note 3 purchased from outside India on a valid invoice and he mentioned that only Note 3 purchased in India would be provided a service.

So I really hope and wish earnestly that all the folks who have purchased the sd800 version from grey market or even through legit channels dont' face any problems in their devices as the Samsung Authorized Service Center in India would not support the SD 800 version or even Exynos version that is not purchased from India officially.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pd1985:
One major difference between exynos and sd800??

Can anyone confirm this

While I have used both the devices and am very satisfied with the exynos version also

I feel the stylus on exynos version is not as smooth and responsive as the sd800 one , sometimes it's just crappy , have to tap twice to open the apps , settings etc ,seems a lagging issue in my stylus

Has anyone of you noticed this , or are anyone of you having this problem or is it a problem just faced by me

Is there any way to increase the smoothness and sensitivity of the stylus so it opens the apps properly just with one touch
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pd1985:
We'll seems buying indian version in india is the only thing that makes sense for all warranty lovers like us
[Galaxy Note 3 General] numerouknow:
no I didn't see any difference in terms of stylus responsiveness or smoothness between n9005 & n900. mine works perfectly. but I felt that note2 stylus was slightly better to hold/write.

Information On Note 3 SD variant

Hello All my friends,

This post is for information about the Sd note3 variant which many people are looking for

4 days ago I exchanged my note 900 to N9005 and was using it with no issues and suddenly yesterday night I lost the network and then on could not register to indian network after trying many times even after flashing firmwares and using Region Lock method nothing work for me

I suppose the Region Locked thing is a issue and myte occur anytime without doing anything on the phone and no option to re-register without the particular sim card of that country

Until a proper solution is out i suggest people to stay away from it

Hope this helps many users who are in dilemma

Best Regards :good:

Thanks for the info , will get it checked out from the store I purchased if it's a fault in my device
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fatekills:
Thanks for the heads-up !
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pd1985:
I was dam sure that Singapore pieces were unlocked , can you confirm which country note 3 sd800 are you using , I just hate this samsung region locking issue , seems they don't want we Indians to import and use the sd 800 version , perhaps you can contact the store from which you bought as this is a region locking issue and not an issue with the phone itself they might give you a proper response , I hope everything turns out well for you especially as the phone is one of the most highly priced product , also I would like to tell you if you are getting the exynos version back , just take it , at least you will have a piece of mind for 1 year after spending more than 45k .

I am glad that you shared us your experience saving all others like me who were still thinking to exchange note 3 exynos and get sd800 without warranty , thanks again and do let us know whether your problem is solved or not.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] HS™:
Yes luckily I got the phone exchanged with the one I had given him after doing some talks yes no and all

for now I have paid nothing incase if any issues comes I myte have to pay to the shop :fingers-crossed: I don't wanna pay anything

9005 was some where from Saudi not sure exact location of the phone

And ya i myself have purchased phone from Singapore Mustafa mall last time i visited there and there are many shops u get unlocked phone mostly but this Region Lock thing is nothing to do with unlock phone its something to do with Diffrnt country so not sure abt 9005 @ Singapore
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pd1985:
Great to know that you got your phone exchanged , but did the retailer give you another 9005 note 3 , if he gave you the exynos version did he give you the bill and warranty along with it
[Galaxy Note 3 General] HS™:
I got the same N900 I had given the shop as it wasn't sold by him and bill also I got

for now I will stay away from n9005 till region locked thing is not completely sorted out
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pd1985:
I would say you are really lucky that you got it exchanged , congrats , I agree with you let's stick to exynos , just would like to ask you one more question , do you feel a stylus lag in the phone exynos. When I had seen the demo of note 3 sd800 here it was awesome but when I purchased the exynos version , I felt that the smoothness and accuracy of stylus was more on sd800 then my exynos
[Galaxy Note 3 General] HS™:
stylus is same in both the phone nothing is diffrnt bro I haven't had any issues
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vinandy:
Stylus lag also depends upon the quality of scratchguard which is used. I am using N900 version and it doesn't lag at all....:good:

No ROMs for Exynos version here, thought it will kick off as the device rolls out :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] OrrPenn18:
Due to the release of Snapdragon version being more popular than the Exynos and on par with it in performance, people are opting for N9005.

As for the AOSP/CM ROMs, the team at CM who used to handle Exynos devices, Team Hacksung, have decided not to buy Exynos devices, due to Samsung being a super **** on the source release issue.

Sad for the Exynos lovers. :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] archer797:
I have a rooted Exynos device. When I woke up this morning, there was a notification that new security updates were applied successfully. Not sure what these are. Phone seems to be performing normally.

dial *#0*# and check every option you get there.

download multitouch test/multitouch tester from playstore and test multitouch feature. (some ppl have reported issues with multitouch)

check if capacitive buttons are working with spen. (someone had reported capacitive buttons not working with stylus)

thats all I remember at this point. may be others can suggest.

You will have to become desi for that to happen again. Only buy desi goods and products and boost the rupee :thumbup:

Samsung has a habit of putting the largest budget for advertising campaign.

Plus there is a reason Samsung has launched the flagship first in India. They know the mindset of the people here(early buyers).

I foresee aggressive schemes coming in october like it happened for note 2.

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

S4 was launched at 43500. It even reached 32k mark but the rupee's sharp fall again boosted the price ...

You have to buy the device from credit/debit card to avail EMI options. If you have one, there won't be any problem.

If you don't have it, banks need a steady source of income and I don't think they would agree to it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] rl421403:

look at the galaxy gear pricing u can buy nexus 4 at that price..i was hoping anything around 7-9 k then tech websites guessed it would be 18k but Samsung has priced it @23 k i don't know which idiot in India is gonna buy that..probably those who have lots of black money..or celebrities..and the tech journalists who get it for free..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sohebq:
50k in India means around 80k in Pakistan. I read a lot of comments from both sides that this price is very high and they won't buy soon. THis should be a setback for Sammy and this will drop the prices to probably $50 within a month.

Don't be crazy, You will only get one of them from all with the device(Flip cover/ battery).

[Galaxy Note 3 General] uv.mrcool:
Samsung cafes are the best choice to buy note 3.

I don't think they have that much margin on the device. Plus they won't sell you without their profit margin. But eventually we will see this price as mrp after about 1.5-2 months :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Strategist:
I was told 41k at a Samsung cafe last week but I took it with a pinch of salt.

And now that we know the official price, I doubt the street price will be less than 46-47 at launch. However it's possible they could sweeten it with a free cover especially after they see the Z1 price and offer.

Hii guys,got my note 3 a few days ago for Rs 45500 in reliance digital store

Having an awesome experience with great performance and decent battery life of 6hr screen on time (i expected a bit more).May be rooting and removing the bloat might increase the battery life but as of now,i am not interested in rooting..i am actually enjoying the sammy crap too..

On the other hand,i have a couple of issues

It is getting heated so quickly(i know its normal when playing games but i think this is getting overheated).This may be a minor issue

And my major concern is about the camera. The pics i take looks fine,but when i zoom them,there is a lot of noise and seems to be blurry

I didn't test it in the outdoors and all i said was about the pics i took in my home

Do u guys too have this camera issue or is it me with a defective camera

Battery draining very fast and SD card removed Unexpectedly

Hi , i took note 3 last month .. I loved it too much. But now i am facing a serious issue. I Tried searching on internet but didn't find any proper solution..Issues are:

Battery is draining very fast. I need to charge three times/day and secondly, SD card unexpectedly removed.. whenever phone goes to sleep and next time when i awake it, i find "SD card unexpectedly removed". I am sure that SD card issue is causing battery to drain(because in settings ->battery, media consumes most part of battery usage ).. I also tried formatting my 32 gb transcend class 4 SD card for few times, it solved the problem for some time but again facing same issue.. Can anyone guide me how to solve this issue?

Try using ur phone without memory card and check for the battery performance . if there is no drain thn try inserting different memory card and thn check the battery life.
