I have both the white one and the black one and I have to admit the white one looks better. But that's just me.

For me this was a great offer, unlimited texts/calls/internet +1000min for international calls and insurance for the phones in case of accidents or theft.

No goosh. It's tacky silver or black or white

Indian people love gold colour, just go for gold then

Gold

I got the charcoal black one. It's not even actual black, it's like dark grey with a subtle blue tint, It looks modern and classy. I liked it the best.

So I got my call from the CPWH today telling me there was a delay of 2 or 3 weeks at LEAST on the blue, but I can get the white tomorrow or Thursday.
I'm not over fussed about color so swapped to the white.
Is anyone else swapping like me because they are impatient kids like me or are you going to wait another few weeks for the Blue?

I swapped as I'm impatient but am a little concerned ad to how effeminate the white one will be.....
Yeah that crossed my mind too. I don't care though. Its what inside that counts lol ;p

I skinned my white Note...Not white any more and the decal peels off. In essence you can have any color or design you want for $7.

Would call them and check if i was you. I just called to check after being told to expect an email by afternoon today and was told they never even processed the change, so wont even be getting tomorrow as they are now out of stock!
They are getting it to me by Friday under the understanding that if it doesnt arrive by then, ill be cancelling my order completely.
What a fuc*ing mess!
I've ordered blue one from phones4u yesterday. Swapped it today for white one and it should be shipped to me today. So hopefully tomorrow fun will start...
haha it seems we are all thinking same , how will people look at us when we have white phone. i will take white but bought blue flip cover , so it will be mix
I really hope that decal thing will be available soon...
Edit:
I think I've found solution to make it blue:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-...p-cover-chrome-blue-efc-1g6fbecstd-p35107.htm
I love the fact it replaces back cover!
After chasing numerous times today I finally got them to email confirmation that the phone will be with me on Friday. Still not holding my breath, but we will see I suppose.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
Called at 3pm today. Got told they no stock and would be 2 weeks just for the white. Mentioned I had the email confirmation and was told, "sales people always say anything for a sale"... asked to cancel and he didn't even try stopping me, just said OK, done.
Got email from the manager spoke to yesterday telling me the guy I spoke to was completely wrong and they have loads of stock. Phone has apparently been dispatched, but yet to get email or text confirmation of this.
My wife is kindly waiting at home for it for me tomorrow (we have a new born so she isn't going anywhere anyway ). Hope I am not let down again for a third time by CPW.
Anyone else getting issues with delivery or purchases etc?

If you're not satisfied with being messed around then why not do what I did
Had to order from CPW because my blue pre-order with Amazon was obviously delayed, and said probably 8th June for white because of stock and tried play.com but said they had delays on white too, so ordered from CPW Wednesday afternoon and arrived 5.50pm Friday.

Is the White Tmobile G2 Available Online Only?

I spoke with a T-Mobile yep yesterday who said he thinks the white phone will only be available online.
I'm hoping to get mine in the store. Is this true

I call bull. Maybe the stores might not have it right away or short supply but I highly doubt that the stores will never sell the white one. Besides its still not the 25th yet so maybe they will get some more shipments this week.
Like the purple Xperia Z, white G2 is online only at least for now.

I just spoke with someone at the store in North Attleboro, MA and they confirmed they will have the white G2 available for sale, in-store, tomorrow.

Good to hear, my friend who works at a COR store said online only, but she can be wrong. Of course she wasn't about the purple Xperia Z, but hey.
And yes, I wanted the purple Xperia Z.

We'll know soon enough guys! Can't wait until tomorrow to see if the store where I got my One last week has white ones in stock.
I called 15 stores in the area in the last coupe days finally found one who said they had a white G2. Got there & the manager wanted me to pay a restocking fee to exchange even though I told him my One was defective (gap issue).
He tried to cut a deal with me to sell me 50 bucks worth of accessories & when they saw I wasn't budging, the girl behind the counter told me all of a sudden they don't have the white phone anymore only black...
I dont think most stores will be getting the white in stock. Judging by the info that I've seen with the device it will be treated like the purple xperia or the white note 2. There may be hope for some high volume stores getting it.

Went to my store this morning but they only had black. I had the girl document everything so I could possibly get a white one somewhere else. On the bright side they had clear screen covers and cases galore for the G2

I don't like the transparent one. The sides yellow. I was hoping to get the one with the black bumper.

Shipping from US store is a little too expensive, it costs double the cost of the case.

Looking forward to getting the Note 8

The Galaxy Note 8 is being released here in Japan on the 26 of October (this month). :good:
I'll be getting it, and I'm looking forward to getting involved again with this community.
(Has anyone with the Maple Gold color been disappointed for any reason? I've reserved that color, because I thought it looked really nice on other phone models with rounder curved edge screens, but in the store the Note 8 didn't quite have the same look in Maple Gold because the screen edge is less curved. I'm not sure if I'll switch to black at the last minute. I also don't know how the gold will match cases and such..)

I'm not a gold phone lover, but would have probably got the maple gold one if it were available in my region.
I was watching TechZilla video on YouTube, his is the maple gold and it looks really nice.

The gold is nice. But when I look straight down at the screen, the tiny edge of the gold appears around the edge of the glass, which to me made it feel a little smaller or framed. The black blends in more so it looks like the glass itself. So I changed my mind at the last minute.

My thoughts exactly! The first time I went to a samsung store to check it out maple gold note 8 looked like a stupid slab compared to my midnight black S8+. So, l went for the black note 8 which looks awesome! I think the maple gold S8/S8+ looked awesome too.

Good point about the black blending. My Note 8 is black and it's almost a surreal black. Everything blends .

Either way unless you really want perfect band coverage here you may aswell just buy the international version online and save money.
The outright price is ridiculous as usual here.. 126,360y

It was released on Thursday the 26th of October, 2017. I picked mine up on the 27th from a DoCoMo store in the Moto Yawata area.
Here's the main page at DoCoMo.
And the DoCoMo 2017-2018 collection page.
Go and check it out. It's a beautiful phone. It's my first new phone in a long time. (I'm coming from a Note 2! Android has really come along nicely.) I also got the Samsung S View Cover from Yodabashi Camera in Ichikawa.
I had forgotten how good Yodabashi Camera is for phone accessories. At the time the DoCoMo store didn't have any Note 8 cases, and my nearest Yamada Denki only had a few. Yodabashi Camera has loads of Note 8 cases, but they keep the Samsung branded ones behind the counter.
Edit: Just saw you updated your post. Yes, I couldn't buy the phone outright. I have a regular 24 month contract and expect to pay in the region of possibly Y11,000 a month for everything. That's including 5Gig data, etc. which is enough for me. My Note 2 was pretty much the same per month at the time.

I use line mobile.
I pay 2,790y/m for 5gb calling and text.
I could probably drop down to 2gb and pay even less. Data used with certain apps like Line doesn't count to your data.
You might get slightly better signal using a Japan model but very slight.

I am tempted to get one too there is preorder deal on amazon germany that gives me a free echo show (the new one coming in november) i could sell itm for at least 150 (retail is 230€).. pretty good offer unless i wanna buy second hand after christmas (bought my mate 10 last year it was an unwanted gift being sold for 500€ instead of 800€)

IVe been saying it since the ATT/VZW mate 10 pro debacle. PErsonally, i do not like samsung, or apple at all anymore. They do not have much to offer, that benefits me more, bigger battery, better ahrdware. PRoblem is with the USA government intervention, the support has dropped so much i will never buy a US model again. I will happily pay for a pre-order from international waters.
