best deal is too avoid very ????

You're overpaying on your sim only!

Non removable battery makes these phones throwaway consumables after a year or two when the battery quality fails. The whole reason I go for Samsung over IPhone was because of the easily replaceable battery. I'm sticking with my Note 4. Cold from me. Samsung is getting greedy at the expense of the environment and people's wallets

It's specific to my account mate so no point sharing :(plus a month wait is a long time in the life of an android device by then it will be free with a packet of quavers :wink:

Assuming this doesn't come with a free vr headset

Bestest deal I've seen so far .
Just looked on the site S7Edge is 630 Beer Tokens !

Worst company in this world

​Errr, yeah. :confused:

I back that never again take it from me past purchases.

When this dips under the £600 mark I may go for it...

No that belongs to gearbest, banggood or any other horrdeous chinese company! ☺

I raise your gearbest, banggood, sportsdirect and vodafone, with BT.

any good offer for s7 edge gold ????? sim free
Thanks

Did u get via email or via post

​Khupw is the code. I got this code too which is due to expire in 2 days. I pre ordered the note 7 for £594

Banggood are perfectly good. Other than a slight language barrier and shipping delays (to be expected), can't say I or any of my friends or family have had any issues ever.

SMS

​Is the code for new customers only?

pointless paying more than £300 for a phone.

Might be a good price but Id pay £300 tops for any phone. it's mental how much people spend on phones.

Highest scoring phone ever from The Verge.

This thing is going to be an intergalactic beast.

Heat added for the galaxy beast 7.

Think this is cold for me , I'm paying £25 Sim only and to purchase the phone at £594 will cost me over 24 month £24.75 so in total will be £49.75 month, ... I've been offered £45 per month for 4Gb data, unl calls & text and I'll get free note 7 & free vr headset....

Extortionate phone price. I'll not pay over £400 for a phone.

​No I'm already a existing customer. I got a letter

Thought new customers got 20% off. Thats what my sister did and buy now pay 12 months later

It's only on selected items not sure if it includes phones ??? I tried with the s7 edge they **** me about rotten so they got told where too put it never deal with them again ever ...

Very
Samsung Galaxy S7 edge unlocked £629.99 - 20% = £503.99 buy now pay over year interest free

Like I said sister got the deal above from Very

Yes and no. I think the point prog999 made is that for £300 we should be able to find a phone that will do everything that is required of it so why pay more. However there are a lot of must have people about so for them the comment would be a bit bizarre.

​please explain why? my point was what can this phone do, a sub £300 one can't?. basically paying for brand.

As an existing customer can I get it with the discount and 12 months BNPL?

Last time I looked Smartfonestore had some Grade B Note 4's for £230 ish. I think it's worth keeping a look on them for further price falls over the next few days / weeks for folk looking for a still very good Note phone that you can actually buy extra batteries for.

Phones since 2014 have gone rather backwards for me with the ending of removable batteries for most phones. I think my S5 will do a couple more years easy (especially with my battery kit)

delivery is 26th September which is long wait I think many will be selling on Gumtree or I'll wait to see what iphone rings to the table before buying.

Check the specs. It's that simple.

A Ferrari and a saxo do the same thing.

Boring argument.

Ferrari and Saxo have very different specs. Note 7 and One Plus Three have similar specs but one is almost half the price of the other.

£633 reduced... That's insane for a phone that'll be supported for what? 2 years?
That sort of money for a phone with no user replaceable battery is horrendous.

Good phone but can't justify spending that much on a phone..

​Try a top range android phone in comparison rather than a cheap Chinese phone

1,080 x 1,920 401ppi vs note 7 1,440 x 2,560 518ppi

But if money is an issue, second best will have to suffice

I pity anyone who thinks £633 for a mobile phone is a bargain....

Trust me, it's Vodaphone

If you want an impartial review of this, look no further than Michael Fisher

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZSoeqVWdl0

If you're trying to choose between the S7 Edge and Note 7, look at Pocket now

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfnsx1bi7DM

bargain I got my gold s7 edge from very last year may just upgrade

The Galaxy S5 is water resistant and its battery is removable.

Everyone should not forget hduk isn't a popularity contest should vote price.. no one is forcing any one to buy this, and in terms of value you can pay less and you would probably have 80% of this phone at 40% of the price... but that doesn't make this a cold deal..

What really bugs me is when the latest iphone goes 1000s hot a fiver off :smile: rant over :sunglasses:

Can you really notice the difference? I have a note 4 and can't tell difference at this size. Also one plus has 6gb ram vs 4gb on note 7 but like I said they are similar specced.

I bet "very's" returns policy aren't a patch on amazon.
What happens if box is opened and you want to return as an un wanted gift. etc
edit

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE-
Their returns policy: item must be- 'unused, in their original packaging and with any security tags intact.' !!!
http://www.very.co.uk/help/en/online-help-system.page#help-returns

not bad considering its £770 on o2 refresh which is ludicrous

I just dont understand why this phone is so expensive, it has nearly identical specs to an s7 edge but with a stylus.

Trust me, its BT.

NeXT szajszung who gonna lose price x3 in 1 year ;d and screen replacd cost 150 hahaha

I was going to get this phone but decided to get the s6 edge plus. same size and looks better.

extremely over priced Android phone

code is 'KHUPW' btw... but unlikely to work unless it's been added to your account and it expires on 21st August

Three, the mobile company beat BT for being the worst company in the world, but not by much.

Awful price, just wait abit.

These will crash down in price due to the competition (iPhone, Nexus, oneplus, s7 edge, HTC etc)

These latest Samsung's have so much glue being the screen and back on that they are almost impossible to repair if something breaks.

i understand the extra tech but that just comes with time, the more time goes on the better tech gets crammed in but i cannot understand their justification for charging nearly £800

Still frustrating as hell when after 12-18 months of use your phone or tablet is only holding about 60% of its original charge and dependant upon its charging lead almost whenever it's not being used. Our Moto G gen 2 still a good phone but the battery is dead in about 3 hours of web use or videos. Our tablets, one under 12 months are dependant on the power cords as the batteries degraded so quickly.

Batteries can still be replaced, you are making it out as if they are glued in with miracle glue. Most can still be simply removed within 10 minutes and replaced. By no means are they disposable after two years.

So many moaners... If you can't afford it why even click on this deal?

I bought my s7 Edge from them last month and have had no problems so far!

No but they don't make it easy, warranty seals can need breaking, often anti static recommended and really annoying when you find security torx screws smaller than the set you have.... oh and yes they can get very glue happy with the bigger tablet batteries.... I will replace batteries but really would prefer it made easy or batteries that will hold a useful charge after a year of daily use were used for the sake of a few mm, grams and dollars. Let's hope solid energy get in full swing so we can all have 4ah batteries in the space of our 3ah tiddlers.

Yeah I get that, I use an iPhone 6. iPhone batteries are easy to replace but most android phones either have the batteries soldered or the battery isn't easily sourced. It matters because a phone with a removable battery holds its value much better than ones that don't. I spend a lot on my iPhone because I know when I upgrade, it will have held its value well and I won't lose much when selling. Then there's the convenience of just being able to swap batteries...

They aren't glued with miracle glue but unless you're confident with a solder iron, the phone isn't user replaceable. HTC have been my favourite android phones for years but I won't touch them because I know how difficult it is to source and replace the battery without damaging the phone.

Just in case people were wondering why this costs more than your OnePlus Three at £300, and also so that people stop posting ignorant "this is not worth X" posts, here's a list of things as to why the Galaxy Note7 is the best phone right now, and is looking to be for a while:

* The best smartphone camera. The same as the S7 Edge, which has the best autofocus in any smartphone in the world right now - http://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles
* On top of the best sensor, AND the best autofocus, it also has one of the widest, if not the widest angle lens on a smartphone at 24mm. That means you get more in the picture. The same applies to its front facing camera.
* With the stylus, which apparently also works under water, it's a key selling feature for a lot of people, the first ever device you can take notes with while in the bath/shower. Funny? I thought so too, until I mentioned this to several people I know and they would actually find that VERY useful. And they've also improved it, significantly. By the way, the stylus is NOT a gimmick. Samsung own 5% of Wacom http://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-wacom-152619/
* The first phone to have Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Designed to withstand falls at shoulder length 80% of the time. That's some form of insurance right there.
* Top of the range Exynos 8890 mobile CPU, while may not totally beat the Snapdragon 820, it doesn't share the vulnerabilities of the Snapdragon devices, and lasts longer than the SnapDragon 820 - http://wccftech.com/security-exploits-put-snapdragon-powered-devices-at-risk-of-hacking/
* Those complaining about the battery, you can get the Official Backpack Case which adds protection AND and extra 3100mAh to the life of the device. It does this via wireless charging technology. Effectively, the Galaxy Note7 has 6600mAh of juice with it. That's awesome.
* I love my music and the only site that benchmarks audio quality is GSMarena and they give FULL marks to the audio quality of this device (which has a 3.5mm jack, in case those waiting for the iPhone7 are wondering). This is a pet peeve of mine with regards to smartphones. LG shot themselves in the mouth for not releasing the V10 (best 2015 phone) in the UK, especially after the G4 bootloader problem, and now the G5 modular issue. here's the audio review http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note7-review-1478p9.php

That's just off the top of my head. Even without the Gear VR, or a 256GB MicroSD, this is a proper PREMIUM smartphone and each and every point I listed above warrants the premium price it has.

So unless your OnePlus 3 has ALL of the above (an AWESOME phone in its own right, yeah it does have that USB-C, wish it was properly implemented though) then it would be best to keep quiet and let people have their fun.

This is a good deal. Very have been okay for me, I rate them 3/5 for their service. They're basically good as long as nothing goes wrong.

If it does, then make sure you quickly start to document and make a journal of your issue (this is enough for many to steer clear of them). I spent 6 weeks dealing with a laptop issue with them. They kept sending me the wrong specs for the laptop I ordered (I ordered an i5, kept sending me a Celeron), I received and returned a total of 5 laptops LOOOL (actually it wasn't funny at the time).

Other times, deliveries have been swift, and returns painless with the local Collect+ drop off point. Make sure you don't open the item, as they won't accept it.

459 for a s7

Well said Broseph

yes and that why it's called choice, you may not see the value but for some it's worth the difference. Google phones mostly get good reviews but to me they look like cheap and boring.

That's correct. They are consumables.

this phone really offends people... :confused:
just wait for the new iPhone 7 :laughing:

​They will happily pay the same amount for iphone 7 with 2012 specs

1. iPhone 7 unreleased
2. iPhone 7 won't have 2012 specification which is a definite exaggeration
3. Apple control the hardware and software optimisation, which is why an iPhone 6 battery lasts a lot longer than my Galaxy S6 battery.
4. Bashing Apple because it's 'cool' to do so but not on merit

I don't own an iPhone because I prefer Android for use on a phone, although if an equivalent to Airdroid app was on IOS I'd consider changing.

Nonsense as per my previous post.

When will it ever happen that a smartphone thread will have any real objective information in it on this forum? There's so much misinformation and second hand thinking on here I'm actually embarrassed for the people that posted the nonsense.

AMOLED burn in is a definite problem. This also happens on OLED TV's to some extent. I haven't seen any OLED monitors yet, I guess no one would like the Start Menu or OSX dock burnt in to their monitor display :smiley:

The only OLED monitor I know of is the forthcoming Dell 30" OLED Monitor >

"Dell has further claimed that it has mitigated burn in on this monitor by implementing a “pixel shifting algorithm” as well as placing a sensor on the monitor that can detect when you are looking at it and turn off when no one is watching anything on it "

I understand that some people want removable batteries, and won't spend more than £68 on a phone from Banggood but PLEASE don't feel the need to tell us all how stupid we are for not wanting to buy the same phones as you.

Sure, spending £600 on a phone is ridiculous if you can't afford to; but what if you *want* to? what if you *enjoy* buying the latest phones, and what if you *can* afford to do it?

By the same token, why do people feel the need to **** off iPhone buyers and snark about how out of date they are? Just live and let live. If you aren't interested in iPhones, just ignore the iPhone post and accept that it's not for you; if you aren't interested in the Note 7 because it doesn't have a removable battery or because it's ten times more expensive than a Doogee Versailles (or some other random crap from Gearbest) then fine...but don't feel the need to enlighten anyone because anyone who is interested in buying the Note 7 is simply looking for the best price and not to be preached about how much they should be spending on phones.

Not an iphone fan but when comes 2 speed they can't be beat even with 2012 specs :smiley:

You can't even change dial color why won't it will be fast. No customisation whatsoever

I think the galaxy s5 was doing it no?

​I'm not buying one but there are plenty of other products on the market that are a far bigger rip-off than phones. The beautiful thing about life is that we can pay what we want for things: we can shop at Waitrose or we can shop at Aldi...hell, we can even shop at Heron Foods if the mood takes us.

The underlying point though is this: I shop at Aldi as I find Waitrose too expensive; but I don't hang around outside Waitrose telling people what mugs they are for spending over the odds, because it's their money and their prerogative.

Same with this. If you want to buy a second-hand phone or a phone for half the price then go ahead - that's why the market for those phones exists. This is a higher-priced market though, and it exists for those who want an (arguably) more premium experience, a better warranty and slightly better hardware (no matter how marginal you think that is). If it wasn't Samsung or Apple selling for high prices it would be someone else because where a market exists someone will come in to exploit it.

The fact is that some people have disposable income that they enjoy spending.

I have been a Note user since the Note 2 was released. I then upgraded to the Note 3 and 4. The lack of memory expansion put me off buying the 5, so I got the LG V10. I remember purchasing my Note 4 on the day of release direct from Samsung for £630. Considering that the Note 7 is available from Very at near the same price makes this deal hot for me. I did however pre order the Note 7 from Samsung last week for £740. They claimed the GearVR headset was bundled free.

Cancel and reorder it's £699 now in Samsung shop with VR

Is the note 7 water proof or water resistant as some on here say it's proof, but Samsung in store said resistant

Thanks for pointing this out!! O2 don't bundle the VR anymore.
Plus the phone from Samsung won't have any o2 apps which is good.

Actually. . I don't think you can preorder from Samsung ...
"Lots of people want the Note7......more than we have right now.
But you can still pre-order at these retailers." ... translation : we are out of stock

That scratch test video, lack of easy battery cover replacement (how I upgraded my SGS3 and Note 4 batteries after a year or two) and no IR blaster is putting me off this phone. Love the design and waterproofness, I think I am going to hang fire and will hopefully get a Galaxy X next year at some point!!

i can get it for £533 thats 20% off the original price cause im a employee of very ,should i get it or wait ?

I believe it was £740 on the online Samsung Store with the Gear VR

Not sure what they're saying in actual brick and mortar Samsung Stores

Carphone Warehouse have it at £699 but with no Gear VR

I want the Gear VR so figured this Very price would allow me to get the phone and Gear VR for less than I could buy it from Samsung themselves

Especially if I can get a brand new sealed Gear VR on eBay when folk punt theirs on

​question is: will it still be water proof? or are they being sealed back on?

Which part is nonsense? Do you think batteries are not consumables? What qualities make glass a desirable structural material for a mobile device?

Where is the section to enter discount code on very website?

​samsung galaxy s5?

Cold for me, ditto on the throw away consumable .... non replaceable battery, shame they are following IPhone ... Stick with my note 4

​I'd get it at that price mate. They'll be around £450 a year later but you'd have got it from day 1 for around £80 more

Pretty hot <3

but wondering if I should get a contract for the VR thing too..............

Carphone warehouse comes bundled with the VR....

My mistake, seems like thats only on contract or upgrade

Is the 128gb model available in the UK or is it 64gb only?

Cant find it anywhere handset only bundled with the VR headset, anyone ?

Picked mine up for £400 today mwahaha

Proof or it didn't happen :smiley:

Ditto. Samsung out of stock. o2 is over £750. I will wait for samsung to get it back in stock. That way it will have no phone company branding splash screens etc.

argos have in stock for 699

Just saw that. no VR .. wonder if quidco will track.

Can someone translate this into English?

Translation "Has anyone found a deal where you get the GearVR headset included free when you buy the handset SIM Only (i.e. not on contract)"

Forget Very, the worst customer service I've experienced of recent memory. They are hopeless, I'd rather fork out the extra £65 and go somewhere who can help in case of issues.

​same here ! copes with everything I chuck at it.

Guys, ordered blue note 7 from Very for 633. Some doubts about very. Do you think they will sell new, genuine unopened UK made new Note 7? They did mention deliver by date as 26th on the website but the order confirmation shows it will be delivered by 24th. Whats happening guys. Why are they taking so long to deliver while others are shipping the phone in 2 days from now. Do you think I should trust this seller?

No problems with the washing machine i bought from them..

24th and 26th August ?
I don't think any suppliers would have had stock by then. I have been told that carphonewarehouses will be releasing preorder stock on 30th and 31st August.

I mean 24th and 26th September, not August.

Sounds like they used their initial allocation of the note 7 and the next batch will be towards the end of Sept.

Hmm.. Thought so. Hope they turnout to be great at the end.

what happened to the 20% code?

Phone no longer in Stock. recall by Samsung. delivery in November :disappointed: Already ordered but now no hope..

​damn

Fire Fire FIRE

Any news or guesses on Note 7 re-release in UK?

cant wait for this to be £175:)

Yup. Same here. In any case, 175 is too much of an asking :smiley: Even S6 edge sells 250+

It#s funny I like tech a lot, and have good PC, good phones, good surround sound, good tv, good SLR etc etc but paying a lot of money for a phone still haunts me!

:confused:
wow ! i never thought you could get such expensive simo contracts. well-done !

Well you carry your good PC on you back (with generator), go out as long as your phone cable can take you, Carry TV in front of you, SLR around your neck.. How exciting !! :P

Infact I am selling all of the above one by one, to fund my phone which I can carry in my pocket, stays with me almost 24x7 and can do a near decent job of all the above :smiley: No brainer mate.

Stupid answer, think about it. Or ask for some help if needed.

IOT days mate. You think about it. I do have all of the above and still prefer to use my phone and they are all collecting dust. That's the truth.

received an email from very this morning advising about samsung's global recall and saying they were expecting fixed stock in October

Same here, received the below email form very.co.uk



Dear Phani,

We're contacting you regarding your order for the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
Due to a safety issue identified with the battery on this item, Samsung have temporarily halted sales and we just wanted to assure you that you will not receive one of the affected products.

As soon as Samsung release the new stock we will send yours out to you – we expect this to be in October.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

Yours sincerely,

xxxxxxxxxxx

What delivery date does it show up in the orders page?

I was 3 years into my HTC One M7 before i replaced it as the charge port was wearing.
Still lasted a day on the battery with not too heavy useage.

​Still states delivery by Saturday 24th September listed as (checked yesterday 7th)

Same with me as well. Probably they don't have a definitive date yet. Hope the system does not auto-cancel the order after 24th.

Carphone Warehouse is taking Note 7 pre orders with delivery promised on 21st Oct. Not sure if Very can deliver before them.

Yeah I doubt it

But for a saving of £65 I'll wait

Delivery date updated now as 29th Oct. probably just updated to the last Saturday of the month. May be the phone may come much before that. 24th Sept was also the last Saturday of the month. So I am assuming that's not a correct date.

Me too.

Deal has expired.

Deal is back. 10 percent off on all electricals now including mobiles. Note 7 may be available in Stock in a week or so.

Price has gone up to £759.99

And still unavilable

Should be back to pre order soon, price hike is a classic Very trick, on certain items they up the price to make the code redundant then after the code expires they will reduce the price but class it as a "sale" price meaning future codes won't be valid.

Shame as I was planning on bagging one when they had stock.

Hmm some people used 2 codes and got the phone for 590 pounds. I am atleast a bit happy that I ordered while the price was 699 and got it for 629. But what I saw is that the 10% offer was valid from long long time now. Atleast from past 3 months in one form or the other.

Now £640

+ 10% off on 640

Might as well be free until its order able
