Shanti Dope, 05 Aug 2018Just because nobody does, doesn't mean Samsung shouldn't do so as well.
This is competition, ... moreIt's actually like the pre order thingy that the company gives you great freebies like the Huawei Nova 3/3i that bundles free JBL speaker.
But if I'm going to pick, I'd rather choose a freebie gadget over this useless virtual game money from Fartnight.

The freebies are all bonus or appreciation gifts for buying the Note9! NOT the driving factor of the price! I can't believe many people can't (or won't) understand this.
Someone Else, 05 Aug 2018Wow. So much negative comments on something that's given for free. You guys are mad at Samsung... moreJust because nobody does, doesn't mean Samsung shouldn't do so as well.
This is competition, so I wonder why companies even have to copy each other in the first place, as it makes absolutely no sense.
"You are competing by using others' ideas" is such a disgusting sentence to hear, but I guess this is how it is now.
I'd rather have no freebie with lower phone price, especially since some people like me are just interested into the phone and don't care about the other stuff even if given for free.
It's a matter of choice. What if I only have $850 to buy the Note 9, which is the price of the phone without any freebie??

So many comments.. No samsung users... All Samsung galaxy s and note devices get in game currency or goodies depending on the game, you have to download from galaxy app store instead of playstore(for example vainglory) .. I think this also settles the doubt of the person who was questioning whether Samsung will allow installs from unknown sources
Wow. So much negative comments on something that's given for free. You guys are mad at Samsung for giving 15000 V- bucks for free for Galaxy Note 9 users? How will that effect you in any way? An XDA data-miner found this info in Epic's own website, so this probably means that the free V-buck are just one of the many selective deal, as in, if you're not interested in Fortnite, you can pick up a wireless charger/ microSD card/ DeX/ wireless AKG earphones/ and others for free.
And another thing, you guys wanted Samsung to decrease their Note9's price by not giving free stuff? As in, if users don't want free V-buck, Samsung can reduce the price of the Note9 to $800? LOL. Tell me, what company ever did such a thing??? What smartphone company says "Ohhh you don't want $200 worth of free stuff? Well we will reduce $200 off your phone then"? No company ever did this, so don't act as if it is illegal for Samsung in doing so.
I myself consider this offer is stupid. Pre-order a Note 9 with 15,000 worthless in-game money that doesn't actually get you stuffs. I mean aren't the prices are bad enough ($1,265.90 in Vietnam for the 256GB version)?
Manhurt, 04 Aug 2018Pathetic, Note series is designed for production.Yeah i sure note 9 design for work not for gaming why samsung did this or maybe in samsung launch note 9 will bring they gaming phone too ? See on 9 August
Let's say they really want to push Fortnite into Android, why not just give us some good game controllers instead?? At least it's something that players would actually use for a long period of time, instead of virtual bucks that would only be good for a few weeks
I prefer the phone to be 1 dollar cheaper instead of this freebie.
Useless. Shooters are played with keyboard and mouse! Anyway, it's Samsung, so not worth a penny. Samsung or Apple, same crap. Manufactured in China and with Chinese components.

Even if you had to download the apk on EpicGames' site, is their site unsafe?
I don't think Samsung told you to download the apk on random site...

this is actually a rubbish deal, hopefully they come with other deals, as big as fortnite seems to have grown, i dont think that many note users would like such a deal, virtual coins on a silly game that will get bored with after a few days
So yeah I won't pre-order because I'm getting worthless funny money instead of actual stuff. I won't waste real money on that

C2Tech, 04 Aug 2018Or just sell the phone at $850 instead of $1000It's samsung logic(also Sony and google), they have to price their top phone similar to the top iPhone to make it seem premium.
