So here’s your chance to get the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the Samsung Galaxy WiFi S 5.0 ahead of everyone else – Samsung Philippines is doing a pre-order promo starting midnight tonight 8AM tomorrow.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P7500) will have a pre-order promo price of only Php26,990 and it comes with a free leather case. Suggested retail price of the device is Php29,990 (16GB 3G model, I guess but the pre-order page should confirm this) and the value of the case is Php1,120.
The Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 is a 5-inch iPod Touch competitor and will have a suggested retail price of Php12,990. There’s no discount on the Galaxy S WiFi Android tablet but Sammy is giving an Urbanears headphones worth Php2,290 for free.
The link to watch out is this one — http://yugatech.ph/samsungtabsale — the page will be up by tomorrow 8AM.
There are only 700 units of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 available for pre-order and 400 units of the Galaxy S WiFi.
Claiming of the units will be on August 21, just like what we reported earlier.
Update: We’ve confirmed that the pre-order units are all 16GB 3G variant.
Complete and detailed mechanics below:
Any idea where we can buy jelly cases or leather cases for the Galaxy S WIFI 5.0? Thanks.
Mas ok sana yung Galaxy S 4.0 wifi. Kaso I doubt if they will release this here. Sobrang conflict na siya with the Galaxy SL. I mean if same lang din ang presyo, why buy the wifi version only?
Pero sana maglabas din ang Samsung dito ng 4.0 at cheaper ang price niya dapat sa SL.
has the Galaxy Tab 10.1 already been released? i have gotten tired of waiting and waiting, asking electronic stores on when will they have stocks and the prices.
Samsung is kinda slow on releasing products oh well
how much kaya yung official book cover case of tab 10.1? would anyone know? and where it is available? thanks!
May screen cover na, matte and clear. Me cases na din, capdase soft leather book cover (P1700) and even the official samsung plastic book cover (P3k) sa sm north annex… Got mine from iTech store
ive been using my tab 10.1 for already 5 days now.. it works well naman and i dont experience any issues with it such as this watermark.. i hope i will not encounter this problem after the 7 days replacement.. :(
Would anyone know where we could buy the Galaxy S 5.0 wifi? My boyfriend missed the reservation and is now interested in buying one. :)
hi guys sa infogadget next week may usb & sd adapters na… selling na din book leather cover for samsung galaxy tab 10.1.. may screen protector na bang available for this tab? thanks..
cmk is selling the 10.1 3g for 25.4k only
You can still buy the 10.1 at PhP26,990 CASH ONLY at Fone Style Accessories at 5/L SM North EDSA. However, you can no longer avail of the free leather pouch. I was there yesterday to have my unit replaced due to a permanent “watermark” in the LCD. They said, there were several cases with the same problem as mine.
During last Sunday @ GB5, the staff there told me that you can buy more than 1 unit (or even the Galaxy S Wifi) since the reservations were less than 700.
Does anybody here (who was present last Sunday at GB5) got the name and store location of the supplier/retailer of the accessories? Apparently, the one selling the accessories is not the same as the one who sold the units. Fone Style Accessories at SM North doesn’t have the accessories being sold last Sunday.
Sir, hope you wouldn’t mind, but can you explain further the permanent watermark on the LCD? My sister also have the 10.1 Tab and I just want to share this to her… :)
The replacement unit that I got is now starting to have the same problem as the first unit. The “watermark” is the term used by the Samsung customer service. It refers to “a water like appearance” (yung bang parang nabasa) similar to the effect of pressing hard onto the LCD screen and this does not disappear but enlarges further as you use the unit. I may have to visit a service center soon! 8-(
Just found out from two sites about this “Moisture/Oil Slick/Watermark/Newton Rings” problem:

I’ll be going back tomorrow at SM North and will update you folks about this issue.
Thanks sir for this. Yun pala yung “watermark.”
So far, my sister’s unit works perfectly and she said that she has not seen a watermark on her unit.
i just arrive form an out of town trip. i got reservation last aug 17 but was not able to redeem on the said date. is it still possible to redeem it even if mine should be on the 21?
Sir abe, i just decided to buy 10.1 today and I was disappointed to realiaze that the discount can only be availed from aug 17-20.. is there any chance for me to get one with a disount? Thanks in advance
