T-Mobile is the first US carrier to offer up the new Samsung Galaxy Note II and let me tell you… it ain’t cheap. Anyone willing to sign a 2-year contract can nab a subsidized Galaxy Note for $369.99, while anyone brave enough to go full retail can grab it for $649.99. It certainly is a nice device, however, I’d have to wait on a deal before thinking about adding it to my arsenal.
Wirefly is at it again! Last week they brought us the DROID RAZR HD and MAXX HD at the stroke of midnight for well below Verizon’s price, and tonight, they’ll be offering up the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Note II — and you can bet it’ll be less than T-Mobile’s price.
Samsung’s Galaxy Note II U.S. launch event is scheduled to take place in NYC tomorrow night, and so we’re starting to see more carriers out its availability. We’ve seen leaks suggesting T-Mobile will launch the Note II that same day, and Sprint has announced availability for the 25th, however, AT&T won’t be launching it until Nov. 9th. Official word from Ma Bell prices the device at $299.99 with a 2-year contract and a launch date of Novemeber 9th. All you eager beavers will have the opportunity to pre-order starting October 25.
Over the weekend, the rumor mill was operating at full throttle, predicting everything we can expect to see at Google’s October 29th Android event in NYC. So what do they have planned for us? Well, here’s what seems to be the rumor consensus:
We already heard from Sony today, why not Motorola next? Motorola has made a few changes to their list of devices that are scheduled to receive Android 4.1 and you might find a few surprises.
