Best place to buy a Note 4 and S6?

pumaz · 25 Sep 2015 at 09:56

After mulling over taking a new contract out for both my wife and I I've come to the conclusion that we'd be better off buying the phones out right and keeping our current Three Sims.

Where would be the best in terms of price and trustworthy place to buy both the Note 4 and S6 from?

Amazon.

This.

Make sure it's from/supplied by them though, not some 3rd party

Get the Note 4 C Not the F if you like your music, it's got the Wolfson DAC

3rd party fulfilled by Amazon is fine too.

I'm looking on Gumtree 2nd hand, where would you see the C on the Note 4?

Not always, 3rd party is just that and not changed because the seller has allowed Amazon to pack and distribute the product. The only way to guarantee a genuine UK model on Amazon and to avoid grey imports is to buy directly from Amazon. At this price I don't know why you wouldn't want to anyway, because if you have any problems Amazon are likely to replace the phone without issue. Consumers won't feel so bright with their 30 quid savings on a £ £300+ phone vs Amazons price if things go wrong.

I bought a ROG Swift monitor direct from Amazon and it came with a 2 pin plug...

What's Valuebasket like? They're offering 3 years warranty.

Amazon was £100 more expensive than Mobile Phones Direct for a Note 4 when I bought mine last week.

Yeah I noticed Note 4's are around £500 on Amazon now.

Mobile phones direct gets good feedback and they do both the Note 4 and S6 with unlimited/unlimited/5GB for £31.99 pm with no upfront cost on EE which works out about the same price as my current Three Sim and a phone for £450 which seems good.

heard their returns are also seamless.

Just to conclude, I went for the MPD 31.99 deal which worked out essentially the same as buying the phone outright and paying monthly for a sim

Very happy to report EE has much better and faster internet coverage than Three for me
