Roberto Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Just came across an article at Engadget showing a Sprint Black Friday ad. http://www.engadget....galaxy-victory/ You can get a Samsung Galaxy Nexus or a Samsung Galaxy Victory for free (with an eligible upgrade) after a $50 mail-in rebate. Looks like I'll be replacing my Nexus S 4G with the Galaxy Nexus next Friday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommym65 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Now if someone would just Black Friday a juice pack so I'd have enough battery to run Sensorly and GPS and CDMA Field Test and Netmonitor and Speed Test and all the other stuff I need to run on my GS3 to be a true S4GRU-connected LTE addict.

I have a feeling the iPad Mini will be reduced to a flat $300, and the 4S will go to $80ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silenze Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) quite possibly all the black friday deals will be available online 11/22 Edited November 16, 2012 by Silenze 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Mannnn....if only the Note 2 was $199 on that day as well it would be a done deal. Was looking at some RF numbers on the Note 2 and various devices and the LTE 1900 dbm looked troubling. I know you can't go by just that but it was rather odd.

Madfelon Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 What about a GS3 off contract for 199, now that would be a Black Friday deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellimel2212 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 The deal is for new and current customers too. The catch is u have to renew your contract to get it for 50 Sent from my EPIC WHITE SGS2 Rockin CM10 4.1.2 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digiblur Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Are you saying the Note 2 might be better or worse than the GS 3. Most of the comments on this site so far have indicated improved performance on LTE for the Note 2. I put all the RF numbers in a spreadsheet taken from AJs articles. Of course the EVO LTE was the worse on 1900 LTE but the note 2 was very close to it. It looked like the S3 wasn't too hot at 850 and 800 either. I use 850 a lot for roaming and I might have to compare the S3 to the EVO LTE since I know how to get into the debug screen on both now. Shouldn't be hard to find a place Curious how they compare on 800smr but I don't have that around me. Hope Robert can let me know how the Note 2 LTE signal numbers and how well it hangs on to it compared to the S3 before Black Friday Sent from my EVO sometimes-LTE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be hard not to pull the trigger on the GS 3 on Black Friday. (triggers are a little known accessory for the GS 3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaQue Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I couldn't be happier with the Note 2 but the GS3 is a great phone too. To be honest I don't think its worth 6x times more than a GS 3 for $50. You could get the S3, media dock, another battery, 100 nfc tags, mobile dock and more for the same price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
