Bit the bullet on this one as many seem to have found success with eGlobal, order should be coming in 5-10 working days so we'll see. Otherwise I place all hopes in S75 and/or Paypal heroically running to my rescue if the brown stuff hits the fan.
At £699 this Note 8 is already the cheapest I can find online from a retailer with a healthy amount of selling experience in the UK.
Use the GIVEME5 at checkout for 5% off the usual price - this brings the Note 8 down to £664.99
Add to that the current TopCashBack offer of 3% and if it tracks you got yourself a Note 8 for approx. 645 big ones.

Thinking of getting the Deep Sea Blue 256GB Version! Will the phone be Unbranded from any Abroad networks? I Just don't want to find out It's all in Korean with Apps I can't delete pre installed!

What's a decent warranty worth to you?

Seeing as I've never had an issue with Samsung products except for the S4 Mini on my partners phone & That I have contents insurance and mobile phone insurance with my bank I feel I'll be Just fine If I opted to purchase It.
Purchased plenty of overseas purchases from Japan PlayStation related products never had one issue where I have had to claim for Warranty touch wood. Only Warranty I've ever had to claim for in my life was My iPhone 4S Charging port connector stopped working Apple swiftly replaced and that was done.

If LG don't pull their finger out and release the V30 then I might bite on one of these soon...

I have a note 8 and it's the best I've come across, I used to change phones every 6-8 months but my s7 edge I've had for 2 years and this is just a beast

I have a s7 Edge and was thinking of getting a Note 8. Is the difference between the screens and cameras big enough to warrant the change? plus what do you think of the wide angled shots? Thanks for any help!

I'll be honest it doesn't really warrant the price difference but it deffo seems a lot quicker and the battery seems to last a while. This might be because my s7 edge is 2 years old tho. I'd wait a month or so and then deffo go out and get it when u can, don't do what I did and make yourself skint haha

Awaiting the barrage of comments about no UK warranty, when most of the time people never claim on it, and only ever need to get their phone fixed after they drop it and break the screen etc. So what in fact people want is insurance!
Never had a single issue with eGlobal, and as commented previously have ordered over a dozen things. Customer service is crap, but the products have always been delivered within two working weeks, and always new as described. :smile:
EDIT: The link in the deal is broken, and all the links you add keep getting updated by HUKD automated referral bot, so I've just deleted those two. Just go to the website yourself, and search for Note 8, find the one you want an buy it! :grin:

Agreed. I've bought my fair share f electronics abroad so I'm not as warranty conscious as others. Nonetheless the warranty brigade needs to relax, there are options.
If people truly want warranty, they are better off buying phone insurance which will actually cover accidental damage, and you'd still save some pounds in the long term versus buying the phone at its current inflated price for £200-300 extra within the UK.
Also, you're right, the link broke for some reason, fixed now.
