***The Official Samsung Galaxy S III Thread***

I just ordered one. Deal I got was: £36 p/m, handset for free, 2000 minutes, unlimited text and data with T-Mobile.

I hope the delivery estimate of 7-10 days after release is an over-estimation!

 

[Ace Modder]

unlimited data? how? ive got vodafone £36 a month, £29 handset, 600 mins, unlimited texts and 1gb data?

unlimited is subject to fair usage. so 1GB i think.

Why did you have to pay for your handset though?

 

[e36Adz]

People buying on contract, how much have you paid for it?

£36 p/m, 'free' handset, unlimited everything on TMO

I also got it on TMO, but I don't 'need' unlimited mins and data (although unlimited data would be nice).

£26 per month (24 months)
FREE Handset
300 mins (more then enough for me)
Unlimited txts (I need this)
750mb Data (I can manage with this, have wifi at home and work)

I actually paid £20 for the handset with £30 cashback. Will try to haggle the £20 back once the phone arrives, since they are now offering the handset for free. It's worth a try.

No idea, deal on the website says £29 for the handset Im tempted to ring up and change my handset to a white, as im not that bothered about the colour..

Is there any point me checking out Westfield tomorrow?

oh did you go through Phones4u? I went straight through vodafone...

 

[Lighters]

Best place to pre-order/purchase this unlocked? Have the cash but want the best deal!

aye, Phones4U had £10 off the monthly rate for the whole contract and free phone and £50 accessory pack And £50 cashback via Quidco.

Anyone know if Vodafone will ship my order or if it comes from Phones4U.

Check the last few pages Frenzy found one bought off Play with cb, then a rolling 12mnth sim from 3 with cb worked out at less than £500 for a years use 300m unltd t&d very best I've seen.

Will be shipped via P4U iirc - did you get the 16 or 32GB model?

Might be worth going to Westfield in Stratford, i went there today and they said they have plenty of stock coming in, both blue and white. Dont know how true that is as they were trying to get me to stick down a £100 deposit for one.

 

[Ace Modder]

16GB

 

[kona786]

16GB

deffo form P4U then.

 

[e36Adz]

When did you place your order e36Adz?

Just checked my emails and they emailed me on the 24th May to say your order is being processed, so it was around 23rd/24th. Bet you are gutted if you pre-ordered before me

 

[ntemples1]

not sure if the rain forest shop will have stock now, I think I might cancel my order if it doesn't ship tomorrow, it will seem like it wasn't meant to be..

 

[mrk]

No thank you

Yeah I'm sticking to the ROCK polycarbonate case on mine, that or the Nillkin one. Looks way better.
