thinking about s3. s4 coming out soon? - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

I might buy the Tab s3, but will the Tab s4 come out this spring, or are they waiting until 2019 since they skipped 2016?

Yeah I heard it won't be until 2019

2019 possibly even 2020 expo as looking at 4K HDR+ display. Hopefully at 18:9 or similar but most likely a 3:2

I think 2016 was skipped because of the note 7 disaster...
so it might be released before august 2018.

2016 wasn't skipped really. In 2016 the tab S2 was updated (qualcomm) so was it skipped? Idk, but I've had mine a year and a half and it's great. Hopping the S4 comes in 2018 because there's to many screen returns for me to bother with the S3.
Here's hoping

I noticed today Best Buy dropped the price $50 on the tab s3 32gb and 128gb version and it isn't sale price, but the normal price it appears now. Does this mean possibly the S4 will be announced in Feb possibly as well when the S9 is at Mobile World? Lets see when it's on sale again next time if the price is $450. I could bite and get it but that would suck if the s4 is announced. That is why I'm trying to hold out. Even at $450 that is too high for being out 10 months now and no spen slot. The $600 original price tag IMO was too high too. The everyday price should have been $500 to start with.

What screen returns?

They will probably skip a year like they did last time so 2019 or 2020 and use same tech as Galaxy X . also S3 and S4 won't likely have much difference like the S2 and S3

[SOLVED] When will Samsung stop selling the S II in Australia?

Hello. I don't post here, but I'm thinking of moving on from my Nexus One to a Samsung Galaxy S II. I would like to when Samsung will stop manufacturing and selling the S II in Australia since the S III came out a few days ago.
Thanks!

lol what?
Optus, Vodafone and Telstra has sold them for ages. Telstra even brought out their own specific 4G version.
Have you even looked?
And my crystal ball says ......

Of course they won't tell you (nor will Samsung tell you if you contact them directly). That's sensitive info for a company selling stuff. Given you can still get quite a few lower end Galaxy devices from many of the phone retailers (TeleChoice in particular), I think you'll find the SGS2 will be available for quite a while yet (end of year at least I would have thought; probably longer).
Why don't you just buy from eBay instead? That's where I buy mine from and never had any probs so far.
Well I think it will be a bit until the S III comes out so I will manage to buy the S II.

At least 6 months before Samsung stops delivering S2
Before stopping production of S2 Samsung will want to check the sales figures of the S3 on two quarters so you're safe to wait a couple of months.
But even if the S3 sells very well, the S2 is catering for a lower price bracket and still directly competing with iPhone 4 and 4s so they Samsung would want to keep it until their product segmentation drastically changes.
Crystal ball:
- if S3 sales are disappointing and iPhone 5 storms the market with real innovations then Samsung will want to compete on price (S2 at below 400US$ and S3 below 550US$) which will eventually come true in the ramp up to their newer flagship smartphone
- if Samsung limits S2 production to make room for S3 there might be a shortage and thus a price bump. Seems it's the better option here (as observed in Europe): we experienced inflation by 3-5% in the S2 price in the first months of 2012. If Amazon Europe is relevant, inflation is still not reversed. IMHO it could be that people waited for the S3 to be announced while Samsung slowed S2 shipments and they were disappointed with S3 (too large, nothing valuably new) and decided S2 would suit them ok.
So check the prices on eBay every week. In Europe you can still get it at about 500 AUD, so I guess it's a good target price.
Okay thanks!

Does anyone upon xda predict a shift upon the price of the Samsung Galaxy S III?

The topic illustrates my concern quite well. I shall soon purchase the Samsung Galaxy S III, however, I wish to know if you predict a decrease upon the price, and shall I await the aforementioned price decrease?
Perhaps wait till nexus 2 is out

Not until Q4 will there be a price drop. And even after Q4 with the Note 2 and iphone 5 it's not guaranteed to drop. My guess is it will take a $50 to $100 hit in then next 4 months. I would grab it now
It's already dropped $50-60 U.S. Dollars since it's been out.
S3 and Note phone price prediction in q4
My contract is about to over and interested in Galaxy S 3 and Galaxy Note (USA)
I m not sure if Note 2 will be in market by September end or October as i see on some website that it will be release in Berlin in 28-aug.
should i wait to get price down- i can wait fr a month. Looking for T-mobile or At&T in USA with contract price.
I buy my phones on EBay, or elsewhere online.
Prices tend to fall slowly online, with occasional upticks if supply gets tighter.
GS3 is still the "hottest", most expensive phone, with no signs that will change soon, IMO.
So don't expect any quick substantial prices drops anywhere.
I would tend to assume the price may slowly drop $200 or so within the next 6 months.
Still pretty much the same price in Ireland, then again this country is a rip off of epic proportions
I bought mine today from the Bay, used but mint, £340

weird question

I just picked up a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1" screen.
My fave screen protector company does not make one for this tablet. but they do make one for the Samsung Note Tab 10.1" 2014 version.
They appear to be the exact same. Anyone have any advise before I dump $20 on it?

I'm sure that theres one for 2 dollars or less in ebay... i bought one from ebay to my phone and was 18 dollars cheaper than normal store
I know this is a bit late and you might have bought it already but my initial thought is that it is compatible since the button is in the same location. The only thing I would say might be a deal breaker is the note 10.1 has the extra sensor next to the camera unlike the Tab 4 only has the camera so that might be the deciding factor if it will interfere or not.

I switched from the Galaxy Note 9 to the S10+

Sold my Note 9 last night for the equivalent of 640 USD in my local currency. The retail price of the S10+ is 995 USD, but there's a pre-order cashback for about 70 USD, and the free Galaxy Watch (not Active, just a 42mm Watch) will help cover the difference. Never really cared much for the S Pen anyway; bought the Note 9 because of the massive battery and it was starting to disapppoint in that regard. Until the S10+ comes, I'll be back to my S7 (flat). Anyone else upgrading from the Note 9 to the S10+?
I also traded in my Note 9 EXynos for the S10+ 128gb Blue Unlocked Snapdragon! I never used the spen... ??
I always say I'm going to skip one of the models each year and I never do. I'm going from Note 9 to S10+ as well.

I can tell from your username lol.
Seems like an unnatural upgrade path unless you didn't rely on the S Pen. But then that raises the question, why buy a Note at all? I'm trading my Note 8 and plan on selling the S10 (waiting for N10). In the meantime I'll try to find a cheap N4 to sketch on.
Doing the dame thing here. Pre booked the 128/8Gb Prism White.
Preordered the s10 128gb version. As i live in Australia, I'll be getting the exynos variant.
For preordering, samsung is throwing galaxy buds on top for free - not bad at all.
Im interested to see how the snapdragon and the exynos versions compare in terms of performance. Will be upgrading from an A5 2017 which i have been barley using a year
trading in my note 9 for the s10+ white ceramic. I always wanted and liked the s pen but i still hardly use it. Bought the 10+ from samsung, unlocked. I was gonna give my note 9 to my gf but she's tired of the hand me downs ?. Maybe I'll get her the note 10
Doing the same with my note 9 for the plus will probably get the note 10 as well

Me too!
I just sold my note 9 to pick up the s10. I wanted a slightly less wide phone and barely used the s-pen. The S10 feels just right! I hope the battery is the same or better.
Same here. Leaving my note 9 to s10+.
I love the note serie. But the s10+ is a good compromise between note and galaxy serie. Plus the battery is massive and hopefully it feels this way.
I gave my two months old Note 9 to my younger brother and bought a new S10+ in blue I have to rock the S8 now and trade it in later
Same deal here. Sold my Note 9 and pre ordered the S10 plus 1TB in ceramic black.
Note 9 prices are in the toilet.
I ordered the S10 plus but am also keeping my copper Note 9...no way Im getting rid of this beauty!
Keeping my T-Mobile Note 9 but I'm gonna be using my S10E until I buy an Exynos Note 10 sometimes around February next year when prices will be right. I can't do this unlockable Samsung phone anymore since Google killed call recording. I can still do it on my Oreo Note 9 (not updating it anymore) and I still have my rooted One Plus 6T so call recording is still in my hands when I need it.
Reason I ordered the 10E is because of how great it felt in the hand when I was testing out the display unit at Best Buy last week. Just going to be nice to use a smaller phone like that for a while and get used to the new UI stuff, that great new camera stuff and the awesome new display tech.
The S-Pen is the main reason why I've been a Note user literally since the AT&T Note 1, so that's why I'm keeping the Note 9 around in case I get the itch to use it again. Plus, I have my Tab S4 which also has its own S-Pen.
I traded my Note 9 for the S10+. I'll probably still buy the Galaxy Note 10 too! :laugh:
I am trading in my note 8 for the plus, but I will always love the note series. I suspect I will be just as anxious to get the note 10 when it's announced and will probably give the wife the 10+ at that point and go back to the note series. You all know the note 10 is gonna be amazeballs

Samsung poor trade in deal

UK Samsung are only offering trade in for the older Tab S3 against the new Tab S6. How daft is that! What offers have in your country?
I have not seen any trade in info yet in the US. Pre-orders start on the 23rd so if there will be any I expect them to be published then.
Where did you see the trade in values on the s6?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
In the UK, on the Samsung website - strange they don't include the Tab S4
I asked them direct and they will give you £50 for the tab S4 but like 160 for the tab S3 . Guess they don't care for people with the latest ???
US trade ins are up.
$75 for the S3.
$200 or $250 for the S4 depending on memory.
$300 or $350 for the S5e depending on memory.
There are others but that is the last few 'S' models. Not really worth it for the S3 (what I am replacing).
