Rogers will be selling it for $359.99 on a 2-year term, $860 no-term  and the reservation system will be open as of August 14th. 

Rogers will be releasing this device ON August 21st in 32GB sapphire black it seems but hopefully they add the more GB later on. 

If you have any questions or concerns please post ANYTHING about the Note 5 and reservations here please and i will be able to assist you with any questions you have! 

Thanks! 🙂

@jimbosst > because 7 8 9 lol (lame old joke)

Hello @jimbosst

Its due to others cancelling their reservations and going to another device. Many will be doing this i think.

[jimbosst]

ya i know... i'm still thinking.  but will probably try it tho

[Meowmix]

Hello @jimbosst

One of my buddies reserved it and cancelled last night so he was one of them. He went for the edge +

[Patthe]

Yeah I wont be the only one with the edge+ lol. Y e probably change to get the 64 gb like me since you cannot add storage.

[jimbosst]

i have the note edge to. awsome phone

[jimbosst]

oh edge plus  sorry

[ShakTiburon]

No one laughed at my joke -__- not even @Meowmix

Would be nice to "transfer" your spot from Note 5 to Edge + since it's same launch and same manufacture (well realistically I already know that's not possible since its two different devices - which is why i said 'would be nice')

[Meowmix]

Hello @Patthe

Agreed! I most likely will get the edge+ and then the new iPhone and compare them lol. Go for the 64GB model

[Meowmix]

Hello @jimbosst

Agreed the Note Edge is a awesome device!

[jimbosst]

i was almost thinking of swithcing to the edge to for more storage but not sure on the reserve no position

[Meowmix]

Hello @ShakTiburon

You should know its not possible to do that as others will have the same number and can cause problems and issues. It would have been nice but I don't think it will happen in the near future.

[ShakTiburon]

My Note 3 filled up too fast, 64GB is the minimum I would need due to no expandable memory.
Makes my own microSD cards useless. 😕

[jimbosst]

i was  haha

[Meowmix]

Hello @jimbosst

I have 2 cellphone lines so I always switch over to which device I like and which #7 is best lol.but I do agree that if u have one line, its hard to see which # u will get with the other reservation.

[Meowmix]

Hello @ShakTiburon

Well you have the option of Dropbox and other cloud storage space. All my pictures I take store into Dropbox and then removed from my device. Same with videos. The only thing I have on my device is music and apps which for music i mostly use Spotify

[jimbosst]

i have a couplke of line too, one extra line always

[Patthe]

Oups forgot to write something lol. So how is the Reservation work? Like will rogers call me when phone available see what option I want like 2 years plan and stuff? How I want to pay for part of the device?

[ShakTiburon]

@Patthe $40 fee to reserve.
Once is ready, you will be given a call - you then decide if you still want it. If you don't you can go to the store and decline it.
you haven't signed up for anything until you actually sign up.

Your $40 also gets returned to you regardless what you do. (accept or decline).
The reservation fee is just a "spot holder".

@Meowmix

I have Dropbox, and Onedrive. (on top of GoogleDrive).

My concern isn't online storage - Its local storage.

I don't like my data being used. (Even though I have High Data alottment; which I prefer to use that for media)

[Meowmix]

Hello @Patthe

There is $40 reservation fee added on your account to hold your position.. This fee plus taxes will be credited back to your account once u cancel the reservation and or when the device ships out.

The store will keep the device for 7 days. Reserving the device does NOT upgrade ur account or anything. Once u go into the store and ask for the device, the upgrade will only happen then.
