I'm guessing the Note 10's are not selling?

The market is getting saturated . Mid end phones getting better



Old phones are performing all ok - giving no specific reason to upgrade

Just goes to show the general populous isn't interested in $2000+ phones.  I have the 10+ and it's fantastic, but I think I'm in a niche as I haven't seen many of them around.

I am wondering what the actual cost price of the phone is to produce. Earlier this year they were clearing the note 9 and you could get it for as low as $650, which was a good price for a premium high end device. Personally I would prefer the cash discount.

2degrees are selling Note 10+ for $1699... I'd rather save the $200 and just use a Lime/Bird/Flamingo once a month when i want to play on a scooter.

 

 

 

Edit: oooo my bad.. that was just the Note 10. As you were....

...and not interested in replacing/upgrading $2000 phones after 2-3 years :-)

Presumably the foldable Note 11 (Origami???) must be due for release soon.

Xiaomi phones do me. Excellent specs and good value for the money.

I struggle to drop $2K+ on a laptop/computer....let alone a phone!  I dont do contracts on a phone and buy them upfront (when I do buy them).
