With Sprint only announcing one price, i think it's a safe bet to assume they'll be offering the 32gb version. There's no way they could justify the price tag for 16gb, and if they decide to carry the 32 later on they would have to charge more, and nobody is going to pay 350 on contract for a phone.

I really do hope you're right.

you know, I do wish you are right. Considering that they haven't mentioned any version in that release, I wouldn't pass it by Sprint that they do a major surprise. For now I'll just keep thinking its for the 16GB version, this way I won't be disappointed. If it end us being the 32GB version, then it will be like X-Mas early. lol

This. No expectations that the 32gb will be offered.

Are you basing this off the fact that the original announcement for the Note II a couple months ago indicated the 16gb version or the fact that US Cellular had the $299 pre-order price tag or some other facts?

The most recent press release didn't mention anything about how much internal storage there'd be, so I'm curious as to where your conclusion is coming from.

I believe the Sprint release note does not indicate any gb amount. So it could be 16 or 32.

Why is everyone so surprised by the price tag? It's a 5.5" quad-core phone with an s-pen. It's going to cost more than $199.

So true. Considering how much faster, smoother and all the stuff it does over the S3, its only logical that it would be more expensive. Although I only wish that would be the 32GB price not the 16.

I saw this article last night, and thought I'd share. If it's true, and Sprint does release the 32GB version, I'll be a very happy customer :D

I read and re-read that article all day and i still can't figure out if they are referring to the 32GB version for the US or the International version.

Anyway, price for me whether 250 or 299 or more, I am still going to pay out the wazoo for this device.

Case in point.

And to be honest, I don't mind. Since I'll be back on Sprint completely and not on AT&T.

Does anybody in here work at Best Buy and can somehow find out if the Note 2 will be sold exclusively at Sprint stores and online on the 25th or if it will be available at Best Buy also?

True. I guess what I took away from the article is IF the US carriers provide the 32GB version, then that's likely to be its price off-contract. Still, much better than the $800 I was expecting for the 16GB version a couple weeks ago.

At the risk of causing multiple moans, groans, and general frustration, there's still that little tidbit of information people seem to forget .... Sprint's roadmap originally had this thing set for Q1 2013.

It's still a toss-up, unfortunately.

At the risk of multiple cheers, jumping for joy, and general euphoria, there's that little tidbit of information people seem to be talking about for the last few hours... Sprint's announcement that it will be available October 25th, Q4!

No longer guessing, fortunately.

I got that from the Sprint Community Forums press release. It may have been a copy and paste job from the original release, but the info is still relevant (since it was posted officially by a Sprint employee.)

Plus, I don't know of any company that will release the mid-range price before its lower price.
 
Just a general observation...

Did anyone notice that Apple's iPad mini event is on October 23rd? The day before the Note 2 announcement???

Hmmmm.....

Look at the battery specs. You would need to charge it every couple of hours with that big HD display.
Click to expand...
True, but I already carry a battery pack since my nexus dies so fast at work (no signal). The display would be nice, but it's the Adreno 320 that really gets me. It spanks the Mali-400 in the GN2. I am leaning toward the Note because the S-pen is what I really want. It's like being happily married to a model and then seeing a chick with really big tits walk by... you just can't help but look!

Saw it, but irrelevant to me...:D Apple's doing their best to steal whatever thunder they can from Samsung, but the more they do it, the more it'll work in Samsung's favor. Apple doesn't know how to deal with competition. They're not used to having competition and as soon as they do, they'll take that company to court (or prevent competition by taking them to court). People who aren't blinded by Apple's marketing can read between the lines.
 
Its okay, just don't do it again MUWHAHAHAHHAA

Seriously, we all get off topic even I at times, but i just don't want Mr Ed to come back in here seeing his thread and going ape on us seeing the thread derailed.

So...

in the meantime, I've been pestering Sprint staff and twitter and even calling the home number to see if they can provide any info on the 32GB version as well as the Sim card and US manual and zip nada. :(
