Samsung Galaxy S8

depends. you need to look at "existing contract expenses/prepaid expenses + monthly load repayment" VS "contract payment"

I don't have an existing contract, always bought cash and I want to continue doing that.
But now it seems I need to take out a contract, so I'm thinking of taking a small loan with 8.5% interest vs paying a lot more through a service provider.

Keep me posted I'm actually interested in this.
 
Pre ordered on all networks - will see who has the best pricing.

Currently on Telkom Mobile and it's due for upgrade
 
ok it seems like contract is cheaper than a loan.
Thanks @Nimz
 
The only details I found so far is for Telkom - Samsung Galaxy S8 Pre-Order (Black) with FreeMe 1GB - R629.00 PM x 24
add R50 for FreeMe 2Gb & R200 for Freeme 5Gb

Vodacom contracts are expected to start from R649 per month, but as usual, data allocation might be crappy. At least the voice bundle have increased on the smart+ packages.
 
Got confirmation from Cellucity (re my pre order S8 plus) that i can collect it this Saturday !
Prices starts S8 R649 and S8 plus R749.

Where are you based?
 
Forgot to mention that Frankie is at Cellucity Head office. So its not a branch only thing. Its at all Cellucity stores if you pre order.
 
Saw some reports that people are complaining about a "red hue" on the screen. Just lookout for it when you guys open your S8

Quite interesting. This makes me want the Orchid grey colour because I think the metal sides on the black version will show chips much more prominently if the colour was painted on the metal.
 
I was contacted by our local MTN shop to come and complete my S8 order.

I decided to take the S8 Plus, they said I may get it this Saturday.
