the note 8 is a phone, not a tablet!

I agree completely. They charge for extra warranty and call it applecare plus.

However just bought MacBook pro 13 and love it.

Now to get to the main point. Who is Dafuq?

I put my dex claim in to got my note 8 today delivered the dex claim all went through fine.

Any progress on very orders anyone got a black one lately?

Very are only doing the single sim with microSD card slot. You can get the Dual SIM version from Samsung direct.

Good luck. You won't be disappointed!

Anyone got a note 8 black from very in the last few days?

As far as I am aware no only from Sam direct.

Can anyone confirm if the one from very is a dual sim?

Well hopefully mines still saying 29th

I pre-ordered mine from Very on the 4th and received it on the 15th release date luckily but it seems like Very have been struggling with pre-orders placed after about the 10th.

Sounds promising. My pre-order was actually 4th September so I'll get my claim in on 4th or 5th.

I ordered 14th still says 29/10/17

That's crazy have you asked them for a discount due to delay worth a try.

not yet, I placed my order on the 11th, delivery date has changed a couple of times, and is now saying 9/10/17

Anyone recieving a note 8 from very yet? If yes what date did you order and when did you receive it thank you.

I submitted my claim last night (32days after pre order. Safe side) I took a screen shot of my email of the order and a shot of my orders on my online Very account. Both show Order no. Product. Date. Retailer. Got a confirmation text saying they received my claim and will be in touch within 30 days.

I pre-ordered mine on the 7th September so according to the terms of the free DeX promotion, I can't claim for the DeX until 30 days after the pre-order date which means I can't check what you say is true until the 7th October. I can confirm that Very are an Authorised partner so the claim should work. I'm not sure about providing an invoice but I presume your Very Statement should be sufficient as it shows the order date on it.

I ordered through Amazon UK. The advisor I spoke to confirmed Amazon were part of the promotion. Once I went to process the claim I was told by Samsung they are not part of the promotion! Because of this I've lost the opportunity to get a free DEX as I found out after preorder window had ended

Hi, have you (or anyone else reading this) manage to get the invoice and submit your claim for the DeX yet?

Got my Note 8 last Monday direct from Samsung - i needed dual sim version, started playing with it on Saturday with the intention of sending it back - buyers remorse etc and guess what I'm going to keep it. It is a lovely device, will take me a few weeks to figure it all out. Yes the finger print reader is too high, but the iris scanner works 99pct of the time even thru my

Same with me, I ordered on the 11th, I didnt get it on the release day, then it was ment to me delivered on the 25/9/17, not it is saying the 9/10/17.

They are saying it is because of no stock at samsung. Samsung is out of stock now, but will have stock to sell on the 28/9/17.

Same as you, if it was not for the 20% off and free dex, I would get a refund and buy from somewhere else

still too much ... phones should be no more than 600 golden coins

Good luck with buying from very i ordered mine with 20% discount codes I received on the 12th of September was supposed to be delivered 15th delayed by 10 days now receive another message on my email saying it's been delayed again by 2 more weeks no reason given if you go to very website says it's still in stock I'm tempted to cancel but I will lose 20% plus the dex which limited time offer. I've wrote several complaints waiting for responses

Do you ever work easy?

Your welcome I'll work hard so you can waste my tax on a phone

That would get expensive?

IMHO:

Had mine for exactly a week, and it's excellent, battery could be slightly better but when is it ever enough really compared to back in the day (sound so old lol) but get through a full day (12-15hrs) with few games, youtube, browsing, emails etc but with a fast charger takes no time to charge (mains) via a fast wireless charger takes just under 3hrs ;\

Apart from that S pen is a joy to use, have used it few times in recent days, i like the screen off memo feature, usually in evening/bedtime to note something i need to do next day/morning as a reminder to myself.

Bixby, I've not really ever used voice commands before (google assist etc) but i really like the feature, it's not perfect but it has its uses, for example you can set quick commands - pressing Bixby and saying goodnight trigger what ever features you set to execute. for me it turns on blue light filter (good for bedtime reading/looking at screen) puts phone to silent, sets my alarms. Another example I've set is "going out" turn my wifi off and data on.

Screen is brilliant, as is the finger print reader, more uses then just unlocking the phone, also use it to log into my banking app, PayPal (dunno why apple dropped it) You get use to the position of it & with a case on it its easy to find.

Always on screen is a good feature, you don't sometimes realise how many times you tap/switch screen on to check time/date, but with that always displayed its handy.

Camera is amazing! the live focus is a bit hit and miss depending on what you picturing. but looks excellent when taking pics of people.

This is my 1st edge type device, i like the side screen apps/short cuts very useful for apps/contacts you use often.

Split screen is another useful feature I've used and works well, when in car i used the sat nav/music player together on the screen at same time. at home i use YouTube to listen to music/video while browsing net.

Live messaging feature is fun but maybe not useful as such after novelty wears off.

Coming from a HTC one M8 found the single speaker at time bottom of the phone a bit disappointing compared to my HTC front facing duel speakers.

Plenty of YouTube videos if you wanna do any more research.

Sounds like that phone was made in North Korea not South. :thinking:

1. Samsung is not Android, Android Pay comes with Android which is a Google product, Now had you said Samsung pay....
2. USB-C is not Samsung, it is a port standard, also in use on Apple Macbook's
3. Android first public beta release Nov 5th 2007, iPhone first release date June 29th 2007 BUT Google actually bought android in 2005.

I agree though, Samsung copied a lot from Apple in the early days, Google did too with Android, Apple did, heck they are all at it :grin:

My wife's had one for about a week now, long overdue upgrade from Note 4. As you would expect from the price and being new, it's the best i've played with. I personally don't think there's been much advancement in technology though. Perhaps next year will find some more groundbreaking features. I'm happy with my £200 Lenovo P2 atm.

Lmao :joy:‌ :joy:‌ :joy:‌ :joy:

Doubt your find the Note 8 stuck in the water, it comes with it's own pull out paddle. :stuck_out_tongue:

Nope no lag here. I've owned both iphone and samsung both perform well but i find iPhones screens are made of poppadoms and batteries are terrible and dont like the fa t you can add storage. So samsung all the way for me. Btw tell dave he's talking nonsense when you go down the pub

Thanks for that.Ill pass no probs but I dont fancy another credit check just to pay something out in full.

video editing comparison‌ :dizzy_face:

Your tolerances for lag much be just higher :stuck_out_tongue:

Tis a con mate - much rather get a proper tablet a la surface pro.

Lol what qualifies for free delivery from very if over £700 doesn't

What's the note 8 like anyone who has it

Well that went to plan.. NOT.
No pen, no headphone jack, no fingerprint scanner, massive camera bump, less ram, lower ppi density, and finally they include fast charging and guess what? No fast charger included in the box?! have to buy it at additional cost £50-75 that takes the %!$$

I second that and also call BS on the "laggy samsungs"
Dave from down the pub must have told him.

You have the option to pay for the items at checkout in full rather then put them on your Very account, but you still have to have a credit check (and pass) when opening an account with them to place an order regardless if you want to pay in full and not use the credit facility.

for those who regularly use of the spen, its a no brainier for the additional functionality it offers. it would be over priced for those who don't

Love people saying iPhone owners are sheep but will only buy Samsung and at over £750. Now I think a grand for an iPhone is ludicrous but £750 is too. Everyone has gone mental.

Black still oos until end of octo

Any chance you can tell me who you buy your gear from?Working wonders for you. :astonished:

Cracking deal do they do a credit check as I'd rather just buy it out right?

People laugh at the price of an iPhone X but 780 for a Samsung!?

Daaaamn

Ill just stick to Windows phone!

Bought one of these from Very (pre-order) and couldn't get an invoice... Anyone with the same issue? Need the invoice to get the Samsung DeX claim! ><

on the order, it says send direct from supplier, so would very even handle them?

So anyone recently had a note 8 delivered from very in the last day? what date did you order

I dont recall ever making a statement such as "Apple always copy Samsung".It was you making the statement that Samsung were the ones who were copying Apple. Whilst once upon a time true, my argument was that it was no longer the case. USB C is the adopted standard by most of the industry. Not going to get into a dispute about which is best and who is copying who and as I made clear at the outset am not interested in an Apple v Samsung debate.

I am not going to comment further as you are clearly one of these individuals who struggles to admit if they are in error and absolutely must have the last word so I shall leave you to that privledge and bid you good day

You need to work hard for it lol.

Hello there can you tell me how this works...im looking to get the Note 8 at the best price possible. Thanks :raised_hand:

Same here but at £625 plus quidco how can I resist.

same as me, if it wasnt for the £695 price, I would cancel the order and buy it from amazon

Samsung (or generally android) have copied Apple on numerous occasions also (this is always overlooked)

1. Apple pay came first before Android Pay.
2. Reversible charging port (lightning) was out before USB-C
3. iOS existed before Android - many minor features were copied into Android from iOS

My point being that they both copy each other, you cant just say "Apple always copy Samsung" either.

I ordered on 14th delivery by 29th.

15th :thinking:

What was your delivery by date?

Ordered on the 11th, now having to wait until 25th. That's an estimate also.

It would be nice if people who ordered from very can post here what date they preorder and when they received it that would help other that are waiting.

My main point was you stating Samsung are the ones who are copying Apple which is patently untrue and has been the case for sometime. We can nitpick over the rest if you like (or just agree to disagree).

The code is valid until 05/10/17. You could try ringing customer services and asking them to add the order and code for you.

I got my Pre-order in on the 7th. They must be having trouble fulfilling later orders as it's more popular than people originally thought it would be.

Nope, it's the standard one.

Has this expired or am I doing something wrong? I have opened and account but when I apply the code all I get is - The Buy Now Pay Later coupon LWWRW is not valid. :thinking:

Only from Samsung directly. And black one is out of stock atm. :disappointed:

when did you place your order?

I placed mine on the 11th, but im not getting mine unlit the 25th now :-(

Is it dual sim by any chance

Mine arrived from Very yesterday lunchtime and it is beautiful. Replaces my Note 4 which replaced my Note 3. Well worth it (after the £100 off though).

Do you have to open a credit account to try get the 20% new user voucher via email?

I think regardless of paying in full or not you have to open a credit account with them which I'm sure includes a credit check.

only if you take there credit at a guess, if you pay for it in full, then not

does buying this phone from Very include a Credit Check? ie openning an account etc?

placed my order on the 11th, it is probably payback for using the 20% off code

Mine is being delivered today. I ordered at just after launch 25/08. It did change few days ago on their website that delivery for end of Sept.

No very is saying delivery on the 25th what a joke

Who ever is using two offer codes at the same time please be aware that the terms clearly states
"This can't be used in conjunction with other offers (entering a promo code apart from LWWRW in checkout will exclude you from this promotion)."

ordered mine on the 11th, but no email about delivery just yet, still says on my account that it will be delivered by the 15th

I pre-ordered my Note 8 from Very last Friday 8th September and I had an email this afternoon to say it has been dispatched and will be delivered tomorrow, right as scheduled.

I live in North East of England my friend...My point was 40k between (TWO) people as you stated is 20k EACH..which even in the North East is not a lot of money.
My point is still very relevant.
Sorry if i did not make myself clear.
‌ :unicorn:

has anyone got any updated tracking information from very? mine is still the same from when I placed the order.

How did you threaten to close your account down? was it over the phone?

Very

From?

Good deal, thanks for the tip.

I just set up an account and ordered a Note 8 without any problem.

Using the code I was instantly given "12 months buy now, pay later" and informed that £100 will be credited to my account around 9th November.

Anyone else doing the same might be advised to create the account first, leave it a while and then order because I appear to have a 20% New Customer Discount offer on my account!

nothing yet, i ordered mine on the 11th from very

Anyone got a tracking confirmation yet? It better be here tomorrow :thinking:

online chat?

Very is just amazing i got note 8 black with the free dex £625.88 buy now pay later over 12 months 10% eletrical discount applied first order.Then had problem putting my order through was going to close my account down was offered another 20% discount and free delivery.I am very satisfied with all that hard work for £625.68.

Try and beat £625.68 :wink:

I've opted to pay the extra £100 and go with Amazon. That way if anything goes wrong with the phone during the first year I'll just return it no questions. With Very I'd have to do a warranty claim which will just result in a repair.

can anyone spare me a 20% code ?

I'm going to go for this. I would be really grateful if somebody could PM me a code. I have a very account but of course, the code above does not work. Thanks.

It might not NEED more ram but they should just put more in to make the specs better and make it better value for money. I don't need the 8GB of RAM in my phone but it's nice to have and knowing it's better value for money and knowing the company isn't purposefully trying to rip off its customers.

Apple don't need to make their products so expensive. They own enough of the phone market as it is. It's the people who buy into it let them raise it to rediculous levels. Don't buy into it.

£40k might not be a lot down in London, but it is a substantial amount up here; oh and raise that amount to "over £45k, I have just found out he had a £5k pay rise last month. This is (until recently) with no rent to pay as Grandma was covering everything.
Oh, and this £45k isnt counting overtime, which may well be adding another £10K or more.

Can anyone pm me a spare 20% code if not needed? Pretty please :blush:

But why on earth would you need more than 3GB of RAM?! A standard computer has 4GB of RAM because it’s designed to run multiple applications at the same time. How often do you have more than one app displayed on your phone screen? I frequently flick back and forth between apps on both my iPhone 7 and my Huawei P9 Lite and both of them hold apps in memory perfectly fine. On my Huawei P9 I’ve never been able to run enough stuff to have less than 800MB of its 3GB ram remaining because it will just close an app to save battery.

Waiiiittttt what!? A soon to be trillion dollar company has a sole focus of making money? That’s crazy... If only Apple could be like Samsung, Google and all the other manufacturers who don’t have a sole purpose of increasing profits :thumbsup:

I agree that the price of the iPhone X is obscene but so is the price for this Note 8? Personally, I think a phone should never cost more than £600 but this is the world we live in and phones are going up in price. All I’m saying is that I don’t regard this Note 8 as better value than the iPhone X, especially when you consider how much better the iPhone X will hold its value.

Agree, each year they give a bit less and charge more & more, lower screen resolution, smaller screen/ battery vs competition, less Ram, dropped headphone socket, dropped finger print reader. This applies to the normal iphones aswel as the ipX.

But 3GB of RAM in a 2017 high end smartphone is laughable. Even standard computers nowadays have 4GB so it's apparently worse then a standard computer now.

Apple could add more if they wanted to but they won't
to save money and maximise profits. It shows they are only in it for the money and laughing at every sucker who buys into it.

Sure the facial technology is more advanced but not that advanced to the point it's £999. It's actually a joke.

Oh cool, another one who does no research.

- Is the iPhone X using the same c*** facial recognition thats duped by using photos of the person to unlock it? No it's not, its far more complex.
- Are you seriously comparing the amount of RAM used? One OS uses less resources than the other. Does Linux need as much RAM as Windows? Check speed comparison videos on YouTube. The iPhone 7 manages to hold more apps in its 2GB RAM than Android phones with 4GB RAM.
- Wireless charging I'll give you, though I will miss having a completely Aluminium chassis

A few quick example that are being made a big deal on this phone:
- Wireless charging (S6 had this).
- Facial recognition (S7 had this).
- 3GB of RAM (S6 had this).

There's more but I don't have time right now to go into detail. Long story short... It's very, very, very overpriced - and people will fall for it

Lucky you, mine still showing as:
Anybody else's Note 8 showing as dispatched?

Haha....he is JARJAR BINKS!

Can you not fit anymore tattoo's on now?

£40k between them is not a lot of money, and is just a little above minimum wage salary really.
If they continue to binge that bad on tech, they will have the debt collectors at the door shortly.

Just go for the Samsung, it will be a better scenario, in my humble opinion.

Mines been dispatched :-) and coming tomorrow...ow yeah!!

Pardon my curiosity, but what is this 'old technology' that's in the IPhone X?

I'm a bit confused where you've said Apple are copying the 'bezel design' of the S8? The iPhone X 'bezel design' couldn't look anymore different from the S8's. If anything, the iPhone X will have copied the Xiaomi Mi Mix.
I wouldn't say increasing the screen to size ratio has anything to do with the copying the S8 because that's just natural progression isn't it? Just like processors are improved every year, so has the screen to size ratio of pretty much all manufacturers. The S8 does look fantastic in its own righ (I never said otherwise) but the S8 couldn't really look more different to the iPhone X.

I was hoping it wouldn't come across that way but I don't have a preference towards iOS compared to Android. I have just as many androids, if not more, in my house than iOS devices.

Re. Claiming Samsung DeX, does the 30 days start from date of order?

e,g, if ordered 1st Sept 2017, earliest you can claim is 30th Sept, and no later then 30th Oct 2017?

Also looks like demand is high or they holding back stock as the delivery date has been pushed back from launch date (15th) to delivery on 29/09/2017 for new orders on Very site.

The iPhone X is for the real sheep, surely?

No one will agree to pay £800 for this - or £1200 for the new iPhone, but they will be happy to stump up even more to have it on a drip, drip contract; then dump it in a drawer in less than a years time, when the new shiny comes out.

My son and his GF earn over 40K between them, but are always claiming poverty; because between them they have nearly a dozen "Flagship" phones on 2 year contracts they are still paying premium rental on; and I can guarantee one of them will turn up with either the new Sammy or the new iPhone in the next few weeks.

You're really going to get a phone priced at £999 that has old technology in it?

This is sooo tempting, but I'm going to get the iPhone X and see if its any good and if its not then I'm going to get one of these note 8's, Apple have also release another iPhone 6 :thinking: i mean iPhone 6's :thinking: i mean a iPhone 7 :thinking: whatever it is they called it a iPhone 8 lol, the iPhone 8 is for the real sheep lol. Apple are taking the pish

The Samsung has the better screen by far

I want one

Interesting. The Iphone X looks similar in design to the Galaxy S8 and even has the same screen size. Not going to get into a IPhone v Samsung debate as both have their merits but to say Samsung are copying Apple is kind of misleading. Think Samsung have been more innovative in recent times and with the launch of the S8/S8+ it seems others (LG, Apple etc) are copying the bezel design. I have the S8+ and isn't in the slightest laggy, has a great battery life and is the most comfortable smartphone I have ever held in my hand. Appreciate and respect your preference is or Apple but Samsung know a thing or two about innovative design too

Thanks for the reply anyway so annoying.
10% off though it just credits the account after a few days.

Code was account specific and could only be used once im afraid :disappointed:

Could I please get this code?

That code doesn't work anyone want to throw the 20% off code to try not had the email for 20% off and been a customer for years.

Iphone X

- No expandable storage
- Overpriced
- No headphone jack
- Less than 2k screen resolution
- Battery capacity unconfirmed
- Screen brightness unconfirmed (visibility of the screen in direct sunlight?)
- Face ID instead of touch ID
- Stainless steel edges will be a scratch magnet

At this moment in time I'm swaying towards the Note 8, LG v30 or waiting to see what Google Pixel 2 has to offer.

This is just my opinion so please remain calm.

You can call bs on whatever you like if ignorance is your thing. But next time I use one I'll remember to record it and send you the vid! Touchwiz has always been regarded as clunky. And no I have a Huawei P9 Lite which funnily enough, at half the cost, is much more responsive and smooth than any Samsung I've ever used. I use the P9 Lite everyday with most of the same apps I have on my iPhone. I haven't got one widget set up on it simply because I don't have a need for it. I also spend very little time in either phones settings app. All I need is a wifi and Bluetooth toggle, music player controls and a brightness slider. Both phones have this!
I don't blame you for needing widgets, with the speed difference between iOS' and Samsungs UI and in app performance I'd probably want widgets too.

Mentioning Apple copying Samsung is beyond a joke. Samsung has been trying to copy and imitate Apple from day one, whether it's designs or marketing. All these things you say are amazing for efficiency or ease of use might help you but literally not one of them is relevant to me. So I'll reiterate because apparently you didn't see it the first time. For your uses Android is better - fine - but that doesn't mean Android is just better than iOS.

Anybody know if the 20% off new credit accounts code works on this?

very.co.uk/fir…age

Unsure how the device is classified.

Then we have completely different experiences on these phones. I have an S8 which I find to be super smooth and fast. I call bs on your "laggy" experience.

As for all the extra features you find gimmicky, I doubt you've actually used an Android phone beyond an occassional browse (if that). How are full widgets "gimmicky" for example? They're the opposite of gimmicks, and the funny thing is Apple fanboys have been saying vastly better designed features on Android are gimmicks, but when Apple start copying Android's functionality (e.g. the swipe up for contextual pages) they view it as a fantastic new feature.

Widgets make using a phone 5x better - if they weren't Apple wouldn't be introducing them (albeit poorly at the moment). Just to give you an example of the benefits of full widget luciousness, I live in London where I take a bus on a daily basis to and from my local station. I have a widget that I only need to tap once to immediately see when the next bus is coming at whichever station I want to check. There's no apps I need to open, no menus to go through. On my company iphone that would require opening the bus app, waiting for it to load, then pressing the menu item for favourite stations, and then clicking on the bus station itself to see the next bus. You'd have to be a bit of a weirdo to say the latter is a better method then the info being instantly available on your phone screen.

Or another example. I use the internet alot on my phone. I have a widget for my bookmarked sites (linked to my Chrome account so I have the same bookmarks synced) where I've set the widget size to an entire screen. This means I have a row of all of my bookmarks instantly clickable. In iOS you have to either open up the safari app or manually create an icon for each individual bookmarked site you want quick access to.

Look at the pull down notification bar on Android vs the pull up settings bar (and useless notification bar) on iOS for more "gimmicks". On my Note 5 I can access over 40 settings instantly, full notifications, complete ease of use, all fully customizable. I want to turn NFC on and off regularly for example, it's instant. On iOS there's only 5 settings on the pull up (airplane mode, wifi, bluetooth, do not disturb, orientation) with no customization, and an absolutely shoddy and archaic notification system.

Sure, all of these Android superior designed functionalities are "gimmicks" if you view things like efficiency, ease of use, etc, as gimmicks. And of course they stop being gimmicks when iOS copies them.

Code does not work

I seriouly doubt you have used any other brand other than Samsung for what you said

when can we expect a price reduction? 769.00 is just stupid for a phone.. but i really want one! trying to work out how long i'll have to wait for it to drop to about £500!

any ideas how long its taken historically for the previous versions?

Who would pay this for a Samsung when there are better and cheaper Android phones out there. May as well get the new iPhone for this price. At least the iPhone does things properly - Face detection on a Samsung can be fooled by a printed photograph lol

I know, 8 whole days....

Samsung phones are the best Android phones on the market by a country mile (or any phone for that matter, as Android > iOS and Samsung's flagships have been light years ahead of Apple's for a good few years now in terms of specs, technology, design and features). Yes, Samsung release major updates less frequently or more delayed than Google's own devices, but they also release more stable updates from my personal experience, and I'd rather go for a vastly superior handset with less frequent updates than an average handset with frequent updates. It's not like the updates are that big a deal most of the time, it's often aesthetics or a new feature that I'll never use anyway.

I have a Note 3 bought 4 years ago and it's still getting updates, albeit not the latest android version. But if you're really that bothered about software then after 3-5 years when the updates stop you can root your Android device and have a custom operating system on there that blows anything that Google or Apple or anyone else releases out of the water. Obviously rooting isn't for newbies though, particularly Apple newbies.

Its fairer to match the Note 8 to the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 which is similar in size and probably the same spec on paper if not Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 slightly faster and looks better for probably £250 cheaper!

Would never spend more than £350-400 on an Android. Only Google's own Androids are kept updated for a respectable amount of time. This isn't a problem at ~£300 as you can just upgrade every year. Shame as Samsung do make nice looking hardware.

Say what you want about Apple but at least they keep their devices updated for the life of the phone.

I keep wanting the next Note but with a Note 4 I just replace the battery every year and it feels like new. Sad in this generation you can't replace the batteries anymore.

Plus the iPhone X is £1150 since 64gb is useless... even so £1000... no thanks.

I put the code in but not seeing the discount?? Help plz

Yea they sent me 20% off as my account is clear.
Works on the note 8. Very tempted considdering likely be able to sell the dex for £80 easy
Making it closer to 6 ton mark

How? I used the code provided and i get it to £786.09?

I'm a student who has other priorities.

#shareholders #dividend #Apple :grin:

Would you mind pp me the code (of course if you are not having a use of it) THANKS

Bargain at a mere £1,149 #oneborneveryminute

Just watched the launch....£1000 to £1149, it certainly did blow it out of the water.....in the worst possible way.
Nothing new apart from a ridiculous price, contracts will be approaching £100 a month which is the price of a car, I know what I'd rather have!

Apple are the Argos of the phone world.
One year warranty on a supposedly blue chip product is scandalous.
When will sheeple learn?

Dafuq?

Dafuq?

How is this 20% off code people are using recieved? Is it an email or through the post? Thanks

iPhone X all the way!

iPhone 8 going to blow this out the water

Glad to see Samsung adopting the Apple business model.
Make a phone as expensive as you can and the fans will come flocking.

Funnily enough Fandroids used to ridicule iSheep for this very fact.

Next Samsung will be making phones without removeable batteries.

I've used very for similar offers on laptops and most recently a psvr. Never had any issues with offers being honoured etc. Just make sure you take a screenshot of the offer should they query it at a later date. I got advised to do the same thing but never needed to supply evidence.
I've used this code to get £100 off a Samsung S3 tab. Roll on delivery :smile:

I paid £699 Delivered With Very 20% Code . :sunglasses:

This isn't worth buying.

The iPhone 8 looks exactly the same... might as well get the Note 8.

I'm still using Note 3. Works great, fast, pics are great, battery still good. Found an old code I got sent, 15% off, went on chat and tried to blag it, but no go. Had already ordered, so just got guy to cancel. Will wait and see what else comes up. Looks great, but a lot of cash for something that is "usability wise" really that much different from last couple of releases, maybe not so much....

Leaked specs arent always the correct specs, and cpu speed isnt really something that can be compared between different cpu families,.. so I will wait and see what they come out with, rather than speculate.

I certainly wont be spending nearly £800 on a phone I know Samsung wont support with updates for more than a few years (if that).

I'll wait for the Xiaomi Note 5, which will probably match 90% of the Samsung Note 8 hardware spec for 25% of the price.

I can get this for £685 with a 20% code they sent me yesterday. I'm really tempted but I prefer apple products so waiting to see what they bring to the table tonight.

Very.....total w***ers. Wait till you have a problem with them....you will realise. .... stay well away from them if you ask me.

This is tempting but gonna wait till tonight, let's see what's apple got.

Great deal IF you get it - I had terrible problems trying to get one of these deals from Very. Personally I wouldn't deal with them again but I know others here have had success!

Good few year back your opening line was a great way for a cold deal :grin:

I have tried to use the code and order it but does not work

This is not classsd as computing. Plus if it was in this offer it would state it on the page of the item.

Customer specific code

I used a code from very and 8 months later they added the credit I saved back onto my account claiming in the T&C it was customer specific and I wasn't entitled to it.
Personally avoid any code from very trying to draw you in ...

I know you said be gentle, but this is not so much a deal as a hit and miss faff.
Cant see them honouring this when thousands of people start trying it.

This is my first ever post on HUKD so be gentle! :grin:
Using code LWWRW from the Very.co.uk Website I was able to Pre-Order the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 for £769.00 + £3.99 delivery and get 12 months 0% Interest Free Payments. The normal price is £869.00 +£3.99 delivery, so a saving of £100.

The detail:

I was going to Pre-Order the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 last Friday, so was checking prices out and noticed that Very have an offer currently on their Website which gives you £50 back as a credit on your account on Computing £299-£499.99 or £100 back on Computing £500+, using code LWWRW. The code is valid until 05/10/2017.

I thought I might as well give the code a try on the Note 8 (it's basically a 6.3" computer) so whacked in the code and sure enough, it worked as in it applied the 0% 12 Months Buy Now Pay Later. I couldn't see the £100 credit showing against the order, so I called Very Customer Services, explained that the code had worked but the £100 credit wasn't showing. The advisor then told me to remove it from my order so that she could then place the order on my behalf. She then added the code and told me that the credit would show up on my account in 24hrs time.

I checked the next day and it was still not showing so I called Very Customer Services again, explained the situation, the advisor got their manager to approve it and when I refreshed my screen, hey presto, the £100 credit showed up bringing the cost of the phone down to £769.00 plus £3.99 delivery. Total cost £772.99.

The phone comes out on Friday 15th.

I know there is a bit of faff involved here and you either have to have a Very Account or open one up, so the deal may not suit most people, but it was worth it to get the £100 off and 12 months Buy Now Pay Later 0%. Presumably, this will work on other phones provided they are £299 or above. Alternatively, use it on a computer purchase knowing it should definitely work!

Here is the Offer Screen:


Terms and Conditions:

I've seen tonight what Apple has to offer and I'd get this everyday of the week.

I wouldn't worry about the s8 or note 8 batteries. Apparently they only lose about 5% charge after a year compared to the s7 range which is 20% after 1 year

Xiaomi...for when the Chinese want to spy on the world.

coupon code worked like charm

Very has the worst website I've seen in a while.
I try to log in but it says my account is locked.
They send me an email saying to click forgot password.
I click forgot password and enter my dob.
It then says they don't have an account registered with that information.
I try another email I know I registered with. Same thing again.
I then remember why I have several accounts registered, because this has happened before.
I fact I called Very CS last time to try and order over the phone only to be told by a half dead sounding woman that they can't apply the voucher code and that I need to call back in the morning :angry:

Screw Very and their garbage 'deals'.



I'm afraid I'm not courageous enough.

I'll give you the first 2 points. As for 3.5mm jack, grow a pair and live free.

When I go checkout ...... There is no option for me to enter the code :thinking:‌ :thinking:

Or support an open OS.
Or provide expandable storage.
Or allow 3.5mm headphones. #Courage

wow these apple fan boys are crawling out of the wood work now

Add the phone to the basket and you should get your own code for finance. This is what I did and should be getting the phone on the 14th. Make sure they have stock as they are taking more orders then they have phones so you'll have to wait when they have stock again.
