I'm disappointed with Samsung Philippines not being able to deliver the Note 8 stocks for regular sale, a week after that explosive one-day sale launch. It should have been out this week, now sales people are telling me to wait another week or two.

I already find the suggested retail price of Php23,990(US$584) to be so high as it is. Samsung Trinoma branch seems to be the only one selling the Note 8 at a staggering price of Php25,500(US$622) at the moment! That branch is taking advantage.

I'm expecting this to be lower at Php21k to Php22k at others stores. Is the delay somehow tied to the sale of the S4, so that people will spend more for that than the Note 8? I don't care much about the S4. I need my Note 8.

I'm tempted to get the Note 10.1 now priced at Php22,500(US$549). Really tempted.

    You should not compare iPad mini with this device. Difference is mini is old leftover parts from iPad 2 they repackaged to get rid of overwhelming extra inventory of outdated hardware.

      I paid very high price brought the 3G version of Note 8.0 to replace my galaxy note by At&t and my ipad 3G. I only used it for one day, for sure it's a good move even I paid more than doubled the wifi only price. The most important reason for me to have a bigger screen is my vision, I've to put my reading glass on to read on the original note's 5" screen. Now with the 8" screen, specially I checked the Huge Font size from the display sittings, I could read all the contacts, messages and other stuffs that you can not enlarge from the original note. You know what I'm talking about if you have the vision issue. I don't need to bring my 3G ipad and my original note together with me every time.

        I like this tablet so much but the price scares the living hell out of me......
        I thought that samsung came to save us from apple over priced worthless devices, but here they go selling their own device more costly than apple..
        Please are you guys out for high price competition?

                      For someone who owns this unit already. Is it good in gaming? I only want to buy this just for games (like candy crush saga) specially facebook games..can somebody tell me pls! coz I prefer android over ios and I want the s pen. :-) pls! thanks in advance!!!

                        laxus00, 17 Apr 2013is this good over the note 2?The Note 8 has practically the same processor and GPU, but the Note II has FM radio, led, 8 mp camera, longer battery, SAMOLED screen, pocketable and cheaper as it's over 6 months old. I high recommend the Note II for being a very reliability with battery stamina, vibrant screen, smooth functions and excellent connections.

                        I need the Note 8 for the screen area with its good screen for drawing and presentations.

                          laxus00, 17 Apr 2013Will there be a Wifi Only version in the future here @ Phil... moreA brand new Note II is priced at 21k+ now like in SM Appliance. True, the Note 8 is quite expensive but it's the only one with a Wacom digitizer. That has weight for artists like me.
