I think this is the cheapest price it's ever been for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 4G delivered. Kogan currently has free shipping sitewide.

Same. Ordered. The paypal stage took a lon while but in the end order placed. Now the waiting game begins. Oh well, will give me a chance to order order accessories for it.
Won't get much better than this! Ordered too :D
We'll see……. :)
Tempting, but I'll wait for A15 phones.
Sorry, the screen is not big enough for me. ;)
Titanium grey ftw
Ha- if men carried handbags, I'd probably get one (as I'd have somewhere to put this thing)
Hmmmm. This might be the time to finally buy. White or grey?
Anyone ordered with Kogan before? How long does it take for delivery?
looks good, but do Kogan sell unsealed phones though ?
Got 4 phones from kogan, all came sealed.
can u plz tell how long does the delivery take usually? is it 2-3 weeks for real :(
i received mine in under a week,
sealed as well.
No one here concerned with having an unsealed phone and their beyond abysmal warranty service if anything ever happens to your phone?
Like playing Russian roulette ironically with Ruslan :p
His family is from Belarus so close enough :)
Oh wow.. Awesome deal, although only because S4 is out.
What happened to all the people who should be saying won't buy until its sub $400 price :P
Been looking at it for the last couple of days, this $19 discount push me over the edge, hope I come out alive with the Russian roulette :p
Might be worth price matching the iPad Mini again at Officeworks as mentioned in this deal a couple of weeks ago.
16gb Wifi should come to $293.55 ($309 minus 5%)
Received 2 phones from Kogan and both were sealed, so I haven't had the unsealed phones issue with Kogan.
Great price.
Good price, awesome phone I should know I own one :)
Bought one for my wife, and 2 of their simcards - one for my wife and one for me, as we are coming off our Crazy Johns 24 month plans in about a month. I know the Kogan plan isn't 4g but at least we have the option if we want to pay for a 4g connection later. I'll be taking over her S2. Had seen the price a few days ago and wondering why not yet posted on OzBargain. Was going to post last night and ask what people thought of the deal and I saw it had just been posted. The comments helped confirmed my decision to buy - so thanks.
Never ordered from Kogan. And my wife is gonna let me get one, just need to know how they are with warranty and what sort of charger they give you? Assuming this isn't AU stock…
Never used their warranty as the phone's been fine (touch wood) but they give an adapter you can use in Australia with their charger which from memory is either a US plug or a HK/UK plug.
Thanks for that.
I have gone through their warranty process on my wife's Note (the first one).
Lodged it online, they sent a prepaid Aus Post label to print out. I packaged the phone, stuck the label on and sent it to them. Got the phone 3 weeks later fixed.
Pretty effortless process although it could have been quicker.
Hmmm…after adding to cart about 20 times, I've decided to buy local stock.
The prices didn't go up for the Note 2 before the free shipping.
I've got to neg you because it doesn't apply to this deal because as mentioned above the Note 2 price didn't get inflated. Therefore this is a deal because it is actually $19.00 cheaper than it was prior to this free shipping promotion.
Negging this because you want to warn us about Kogan and its past practices and that we should maybe think twice before supporting them by purchasing from them is another issue, but I choose to take the former view.
Wut? Looks like you're on your own, lol…
Neg be-gone. Great deal
Hopefully all goes smoothly with this. Is the expected delivery 2-3 weeks as it says (from past experiences of others?). Also should I order the sim card as well? (not sure if I'll use, but since it's free…)
EDIT: Nvm, when I added the sim to my cart it also adds a $4.99 shipping cost lol. No deal :(
I bought 2 simcards and paid the $10. It seems the storewide free shipping doesn't apply to the simcards. Wasn't bothered enough to look into it further. I'm obviously not a true Ozbargainer.
Just had a chance to take a look. The free delivery fine print does indeed exclude the sim cards.
mine was unsealed , called kogan , they said its coming from Hongkong so they have to change some settings before they deliver me
i got it for 550$ i should have wait for bloody 1 month…
Usually you can email them requesting the price difference to be refunded - I did this last year when I bought a galaxy nexus. 1 month might be too long though, but worth a shot.
I paid $529+19 shipping,
it then dropped to $499, I called up and they gave me $30 credit, better then nothing.
and I also used my 28 degrees price guarantee :)
hey mate. how long did u had to wait for?
thanks
Once it's $440 I'll buy.
Ugh, resistance is futile?
The SGN3 must be comming as the price keeps dropping & as a (educated) guess it will be 1080p screen - so this is weighing on my just hitting the buynow at a reasonable mobile deal… http://bit.ly/18QLkVs is an article on what to and what not to expect on the SGN3, enjoy the romour mungering as i know i did…
Nah mate you should wait for the galaxy note 4, I heard it'll have 4k resolution.
what are you guys getting in terms of cases? Im looking to get a hard matte case, not sure about their pricy OEM cases.
I was thinking the same thing. Appreciate some recommendations
does anyone know how long it takes to reach here?
i bought a Gs2 from valuebasket.com.au 10 days ago and hasnt arrived yet :/
I am really keen on switching over to one of these from my iPhone 4..
I have been eyeing them off since they were released.. But I have one thing holding me back which I have been thinking about..
I haven't bothered researching this but hopefully someone can easily tell me here without me looking into it myself..
Is it possible to merge all of my previously purchased apps from the Apple App Store over to the Note 2 without having to purchase them all again?
I would estimate that I have around $100 worth of apps I have purchased since owning my iPhone and it would be bad if I had to buy them all again on the new phone.
I would appreciate any help with this, thanks ;)
The apps you buy are specific to the platform, so the answer is no, you can't merge / convert / get credit for apps you've bought on one platform when moving to the other.
Here is an article about it, basically a long-winded way of saying what I've said above -
http://www.gadgetguy.com.au/gadgetguy-asks-what-happens-to-m…
Or this, which is more succinct on the point -
http://google.about.com/od/socialtoolsfromgoogle/qt/Goodbye-…
Thanks for the answer.. much appreciated..
I guess I'll just buy the apps that I still use as most of the ones I have purchased over the 2-3 years I don't use anymore anyway..
I've got 4 friends that swtiched from the iPhone 4 to the Note II and SGS III and they're NEVER going back.
Looks like free shipping still today
free shipping has been extended to midnight tonight.
Ordered around 1pm yesterday and just received a ready for dispatch email. :)
Expired.
This was a good deal for $489 delivered, the price is now up $10 to $499 plus $19 for delivery!
Yep wonder if the dropping AUD will have an effect from here on in ?
Well it looks like the price is going up at the moment, not down. It is now UP to $539 ($549 for white) plus $19 delivery ie $69 more than we paid for the grey one and $79 more for the white.
I think snappy was actually implying that a drop in aud would mean the price would go up (which is what happened). But yeah im glad I pulled the trigger when I did! We might not see a $489 delivered price for a while.
Yip, I realise that. I wasn't disagreeing with him - although a 15% price move in the product can't be attributable to the latest AUD movement. It was a general comment about how good the deal was compared to the current price - and an observation that with near-run-out models like this it is unusual to see the price going up, especially so dramatically (notwithstanding weakening AUD). I should have replied to Victorious instead of snappy.
No harm done :) seems like we both can be satisfied at jumping in at the right time
Absolutely. What a winner - although ours hasn't gone into action yet as my wife doesn't want to use it until her cover arrives (ordered from elsewhere). Then I get to take over her old S2, upgrading from my Nexus S. Will be putting on a different ROM as I don't like the Samsung skin.
Yeah I was a bit hesistant too. Ended up ordering a case and screen protector, same day I made the kogan order, from ebay from australian seller so received within few days. Was only a couple dollars more anyway. Dont think I have enough patience to wait it out while shipped from asia.
As many people have said, havent looked back since getting the note 2!
Just got notification that mine has been shipped from HK.
5 days ago I got the email saying order will soon be on the way.. Hope Im lucky to have mine shopped today since Im on leave next week.. ha!
Far out its just been dispatched this very second.
haah, i ordered on Sunday (day before the free shipping) and it arrived 5 minutes ago :D charging atm.
I only for the dispatch msg 3 hours ago but its already in Melbourne probably awaiting customs clearance.. I ordered on same day as free shipping.
I got mine today, it came sealed. If I'm not mistaken it's Australian stock! The warranty card in the box also says 2 years warranty with Australian contact number and address.
Yep, it's Australian stock - GT-N7105T
For those that have received them did you get a tracking email… ?
(last one i got says "Your order has been processed for dispatch at one of our international facilities and we expect to confirm the shipment shortly")
that was 6 days ago.
Same here. For people that received Aus stock, did you get a tracking email? Fingers crossed I will get an Aus sealed phone tmrw!
yep i did
Received mine today too and it was sealed! Mine appears to be Aussie stock too with the aussie warranty details. I got a Australian AC plug adapter too even though the charger that came in the box was an australian plug
Yep I got Aussie stock as well. Inside mine has alot of particules of dust and what not under the clear protective plastic on the phone.. Was thinking geez Samsungs standards are getting sloppy. Hmm are these related to the hard to update Telstra note 2's, given its Australian stock ? Read previously that international stock is better ? hmm not too sure about that one.
I still haven't got mine. :( When did you guys order?
Same. :( and I ordered midday on the 7th and got a dispatch email the next day so today marks 5 business days (the time period in which I was supposed to receive tracking info). I ordered the white not the grey. Does that matter?
I ordered the white one on the 7th too. It's been more than 5 days.. Though on their website it says not every order gets tracking info? :S
Ordered mine same day as free shipping at 11:30pm AEST, mine arrived yesterday in Melbs.
@darkage was it the white one ?
sorry if i missed the info earlier…
nope grey
Thanks. So are we saying nobody has received a white one yet ? I certainly haven't. No tracking info or any other updates since the initial confirmation and advise that tracking would be provided in 5 days.
Has anybody with a white one on order received anything yet further to their initial email ?
Just got tracking details.
Me too (white one). Although when I click on the Toll tracking link on the email it says there is no information available for the consignment yet. Anyway, hopefully will receive it some time in the next week.
Just checked mine- collected this morning in HK by Toll
(good to see some activity)
Yeah I ordered a white too and only got the tracking e-mail yesterday, looks like they just bought a big batch of white from Asia or Europe, hopefully will get it by next Mon or Tue.
Btw the note 2 is now $549+shipping! So $79 more then what we paid, so glad they had this free shipping day otw I would've waited :)
received my white note 2 today, but it was not sealed. Came from hk
awh thats sucks, i happened to get a grey European Note II D:
whilst other people here got 2 years local warranty :(
oh well, guess I cant complain at the price I paid.
also note: the price now is 529+shipping. which totals a good $50 over what it was
I got a aussie stock one also. Has anyone confirmed these ones will definately carry a 2yr warranty?
@ andyman1908 I have read a few posts on Whirlpool where they say no just 1 year…
maybe you just need a copy of an OZ invoice ?
I would love a definitive answer too.
Mine arrived yesterday (white,french) charging up as we speak.
Would have liked an oz one but then its a risk when you save $200
Got mine this morning, it's also french but at least it's sealed, so can't complain given the price is even higher right now.
Likewise. Got my white one today - French and sealed. Just go to settings and change (a) the language and then (b) the time and date to your city. One problem is that the adapter from Kogan doesn't fit the French 2 round-prong plug on the phone charger. Anybody reckon Kogan will send a suitable adapter if asked ?
You can either
a) spend 1-2 hrs talking on the phone with the Kogan staff then wait another 3-5 days for them to send the adapter or
b) spend a couple of bucks and get one on ebay :)
Turns out to be my bad. They were actually very quick to respond. They asked me to send a pic of what I got and then sent me this link. http://media.kogan.com/files/usermanuals/Charger-Adapter-Gui… Literally a matter of forcing a round peg into a square (ok, rectangular) hole !
Yep mine works great (Don't know why they didn't send that pic with the invoice- anyway the plug holds nicely (compared to the dodgy ones i've used overseas)
I want this deal again as this seemed like a good price :(
Thanks. Have been waiting for this. Ordered.
