Also very annoying that theres no pre order offers or dual sim option yet (last year you could pick either sim type) so either they didnt sell enough dual sim to warrant bringing it out again, all models are hybrid sim slots (sd or 2nd sim) or the dual sim will come later and or only available on import

However nice to see our USA friends get the following

Bloody XDA site is a mess, mnot sure what its issue is with images however if it does not appear you can see the image here, nope that aint working either as xda is replacing links with random crap think they need to reboot the server lol

Anyways

Its a set of AKG over the ear headphones or some fortnite stuff or both for $99 usd

Gave in and ordered the 512GB/8GB RAM variant, will do some speed test videos and camera comparison videos with the Note 8.

Ordered the Ocean Blue - 512gb.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] padlad:
Just ordered from Very.co.uk for £719 (with a 20% off code i got through the post), if anyone is looking for a 'decent deal' you can get 10% off your first order, if you are a new customer, and also spread the cost over 12 months interest free.

Do you know if Very are selling the dual sim or single sim version?

I used Mastercard. I did ring them beforehand to tell them I was going to be making a purchase from Samsung.

I think it's the single SIM version. But I'm not 100% sure.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gCloud:
Compare the part# on very to the ones on samsung site, if the same then they are dual SIM.

Edit: just spotted the following on samsung site.

*Hybrid SIM model not available through networks, only through Samsung Shop Online and Samsung Experience Stores.

The 128gb version I ordered was dual SIM.

I didn't see the choice for a single or dual sim.

Just 128gb or 512gb.

gah - just gone to order a blue 512gb from Sammy uk and out of stock already, as well as EE out of stock on 512Gb Blue :( knew I shouldn't have deliberated for that extra couple of hours..... oh well, just have to wait it out..... :)

Really hope the battery life is as good as claimed, thats been the only achilles heel of my Note 8..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:

How could i forgot those puppies!, bless people like chainfire and supercurio in the early samsung days, i wouldnt of been them for all the money in the world
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
So just out of curiosity, how many times have people just like accidentally logged on to Samsungs site to check their tracking today????

Own up, its more than once i bet --
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartyDingo:
My favourite is Magisk being released and seen as this amazing thing, a solution to a problem we used to take pride about, and now it's just expected. It's hilarious how fast and crazy things change.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
So true, its a shame Samsung became so locked down as to be fair in the early days they were basically unbrickable unless you were one of those who didnt read, and even though there was a few steps it was fun doing it.

I used to cook up a slim rom for the first Note, never done anything like it before and it was quite well received as at point of release only one other person was cooking. However when i look back at the thread then (2013) compared to know, people had two things back then, and that was patience and appreciation. Alas sorely missing in this day and age.

Now talking of patience let me just go check Samsungs site and see if they are late dispatching it as a suprise, it bloody well wants to be sent.....:laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartyDingo:
The balance of security vs freedom tipped over to the security side, when it comes to knox, and to be fair in todays world of Internet of **** and automated scripted hacking it's nice knowing a physical chip is helping protect dangerous processes running... Then again there's probably one of the forty or so exploits that were found in the Vault 7 leaks that could bypass it all from a lower level anyway.

Oh man, the fears are real when you don't understand you're actually still stuck in a safety net that is the bootloader, that actually protected your device from yourself. Gotta love tech irony!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
LOL and some do need protecting from themselves, so in one way its kinda progress.

Even when i flash the stock roms with odin now so i at least get it 2 days before the OTA (no patience any more lol) i think what if the usb cable popped out during the recovery flash. The youthfull part of me says just do it, go on pull the cable out, the older part of me says you dont have the patience if it goes wrong lol. I hate being old.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartyDingo:
Yeah, it's great to flash the leaked countries CSC to get the first OTA update, I've gotten it to work with the note 8, probably will keep the note 9 knox 0x00, but it's nice when you find the simpler ways! Simplicity is beautiful.

I get super anxious the same way, clear all obstacles during any flash, screen must remain on, I cleared the eeprom off a modded original Xbox once and got super careful ever since haha

Tried everyday now, still getting "Please input valid Order details". I'm pretty chill because there was no communication last year and it came next day after shipping.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Coolbananas:
Samsung is currently saying i have an 'Invalid Order Number'. Should i be concerned?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:
If it were UK Mail delivering we would also a thread about "Parcel left in recycle bin and bin collection was today!"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuch Kuch:
No - If you want the latest information about your order you can contact Samsung Customer Services and tell them you get that error message. They'll be able to tell you the latest status about your order and solve that error message so you don't see it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
Hell very true, but least they dont use Yodel because if it were them well god knows who will get it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
No, there system is borked no need to be concerned
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] thering1975:
yeah when i flash the stock roms i do it on me macbook pro, only problem is the usb-c ports they use leave too much wiggle room, a slight mm nudge and the macbook will stop charging so i kinda have to wrap the cable in a way no nudge could break the connection. I guess at my age id call that an extreme sport

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
I went Samsung as the cash back was higher, they were selling the hybrid version and they offer a trade in against my Nokia phone.

If they don’t deliver on 24th , I’ll just walk into CPW & get one.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] nathlynn22:
It's the dual SIM though which is why I'll go through Samsung. Been on holiday just got back so phoning Samsung to find out about the 512gb blue note 9. It's really crap that we get no extras.

Am I'm right in saying it ships on the 23rd so does that mean it may be delivered on the 23rd or is it the 24th as on the track order mine is saying dispatched or something (second step of four)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
It will be shipped today 23rd, and delivered tomorrow 24th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mgbosshogg:
Mine ( Samsung direct ordered whilst the unpacking event was still on ) has always said a despatch date of the 24th.

Hoping it's an oversight as it would mean delivery on Tuesday with the English bank holiday.

I can't actually get into my order to track it, cheers Samsung, but mine has a despatch date of the 23rd in the email.

I'm in exactly the same boat!

The girl I dealt with at O2 Business emailed me earlier this week to say she'll update me with the shipping as soon as she knows more; I was told that delivery would be Friday 24th, but until I hear from them or get an email from reception to say that they need collecting; I'll not hold my breath!

My order is with CPW, it said yesterday: We'll deliver your Carphone Warehouse parcel on 23rd August 2018

Then email stated: We will send you your 1 hour time slot on the day of delivery once your parcel has been loaded on the van, usually by 11:00am.

So its now almost 2pm and still no time slot

I wonder if DPD will deliver today at all

I had a mare with UK Mail last year with the Note 8, they didn't give me a time slot but I was at work 5 mins away by car, waited, waited still no time slot then status update, attempted delivery but returned to base! Grrrrrrrrrr it took ages then for me to contact UK Mail then for them to contact the driver. A right shambolic mess!

So I'm glad it's DPD this time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] daddyo:
So it's tomorrow as originally planned? If you ask me, the the cpw tracking email was premature! Just did online chat with DPD and they haven't received anything from cpw yet!! ?
