Oi. That was my expedition to the store. Ah, well, I'm on the list of people they're going to contact when they have some. Hehe...One guy remembered that I purchased my Touch there a year ago...
INKINO do tend to get these devices first, in London

The websites shipping to uk are saying 6h june, 9th june or 19th june.
I suspect that friday 6th june and monday 9th june are the same, and maybe the sites that got stock from the first supply to the uk. That sounds consistent with the sites saying 6th/9th, as they have had stock first with previous devices. The 19th June sounds like stock from the second round of supply to the UK.
I've pre-ordered from htcdirect.co.uk for the 6th, because i saw it before incino and a friend has used them before. I would probably recommend using inkino first only because they are listed on the htc page as official sellers.

its already out!! im in Australia and already have mine

T-Mobile will release the MDA Compact IV fully branded T-Mobile the first week in July. However I can see ther being some problems as always with T-Mobile and it will probably be middle to end of July early August.

Local shop here tells me it will be here in Spain next week... bring it on!!

looks like we will have the English version in Hong Kong early next week, namely 2/June

Hi, I'm In HK on a business trip next week (fortunatly) where would you recommend going to buy this phone?

Devicewire.com will have it on June 9th in UK

Subject: Question about HTC Touch Diamond availability
Hello,
I am very interested in purchasing HTC Touch Diamond once it is available. As a matter of fact I would pre-order it if you could answer me how certain you are that you will have them in stock on June 9th? I am asking this because most of the other retailer sites state that they will have it on June 19th.
Also I would like to know is it going to be a retail version with 192 MB and not 128 MB of RAM memory? Will you have that excellent HTC slip case available, also, since it is not included in the box?

Nexus 5 - Hong Kong

For anyone who cares the Nexus 5 is officially out in Hong Kong. Its being sold by LG, rather than Google. Price is around HK$3,800 - 3,900 depending on where you buy it. Big name retailers such as Broadway are selling it. Only the 16GB model is presently available.

Why is it HK always gets the low storage. First note 3, now this! Infuriating!!

Nice! I'm in Hong Kong right now, considering this (my Google Play order wont ship until November 8). Do you know if the International version will work on US networks and LTE bands, specifically T-Mobile?

no. LTE wont work in North Americia. But 3G will work of course.

Damn. I had a feeling LTE wouldn't but was holding out hope. Oh well, guess I'll have to play the patience game some more..

Hond Kong LTE use band 3, and the US version of Nexus does not support that.
But does anyone know on the UMTS 2100, is HSPA supported by the NEXUS 5?

wonder when nexus 5 32 gb will release in hong kong.. right now for that price its still a steal!

heard from wilson guy that around nov 20 there will be google play order available in hk, with price around HKD3200..
dont yell at me how ridiculous this may be.. im just repeating their words..
is this really possible (that google play order is coming to hk)?

HK Google Play store would be a very welcome development.
I think I am probably going to wait it out for around a month or two and hopefully the N5 price is drop a bit or at least a 32GB model will make its way to HK, otherwise seems the Oz store has the best value at the moment.

Fortress
Dear All,
I was at Fortress MK (MK New Century Mall) and they are selling it for $3,880.00. The guy says ONLY 16GB and I asked about 32GB and he said no. I don't believe him since he had to check 5 minutes to give me a price on the N5. Late Nov. HK PlayStore have it? I highly doubt it. I'm waiting till close to Christmas to buy it as the price will go down and retailers will have discounts.

if u go to "smaller" shops in mongkok/wanchai etc. the price is now in the range of 3700+..

Make sure..

Yes, parallel import will be cheaper in price but watch for what you get. Remember, US version (D820) won't work in HK for LTE. We have (D821) which is international version to work for Asia. I would stay with Fortress, Broadway etc. to be safe.

As long as the smaller shop confirms its HK stock and you can get local warranty through LG I don't see an issue buying through them.
Remember the D821 is also being sold in Australia where the price is actually quite comparable to the North American prices. But you won't get local LG warranty if you get that.

Was at Broadway Shatin on Friday, asked if 32gb was available, sales said usually Hong Kong only get one version.
Agreed that it is expensive to buy from them, if really available through Play Store at end of November then Ill be one of the first to buy from there!

Was just in WCC.
Asked two shops for price, one said HK$4.2k the other said HK$3.9k!!!!! Local stock.
Wasn't going to buy and was in a bit of a hurry so didn't ask around too many places or try and negotiate for price.

Where to buy?

Phone was released today but I can't find where to buy it. It is only available via official site which doesn't accept non-US cards... I am interested both in dualsim and singlesim models

I ordered mine here.

Also, it's available on handtec and expansys...

handtec seems like the best option for Canadian customers at the moment. It's about the same price at the least years prepaid LTE version from Fido.

I purchased my XT1068 8GB from ebuyer in the UK.

amazon?
I also want to know where to buy it because the amazon page says it will be released 30th of september

UK Amazon states that it will be available on the 15th of September subject to change, they probably want to clear their stocks of 1st gen Moto G's before they let the new one go -.-

Does anybody know what is the cheapest way to get dual-sim in U.S.?
Amazon UK?

Canadian galaxy S9/plus thread (waiting room)

Its this time of the year guys! This thread is to discuss pre-orders across all stores and providers in Canada. To compare notes and ask ROBELUS related questions. I personally pulled the trigger for an unlocked (no subsidy) phone through best buy, delivery scheduled for the 16th and then I went back in an through Telus the pick up is on the 9th for some reason so I pulled the trigger on both. What did you order from where? What did you select? Pick up or delivery? Please share.

I'm waiting for benchmarks between sd845 and exynos, in order to decide on which one to pick. I'm probably going exynos route again, shame we Canadians get slammed with the Americans, even if we don't use CDMA networks anymore.

I thought Best Buy did not do this anymore.
I thought you need to buy a carrier subsidized device ?
I am not going to the S9 anyway, I just do not want another device where I will need to wait for at least a year after Android P is released to get it, also I do not want Samsung Bloat you know like Bixby.
...but I am curious will check the Best Buy website, sure enough for only $1100, plus tax and shipping I can get an unlocked device sent to my home. Thanks for pointing this out.

Anyone plan to import the exynos one? Where's the best place to get it from?

Im not 100% if i will get one but for sure but if i do it will be exynos just like my note 7 and S8 plus.
I would not waste my my money on the locked down crapdragon version.
Plus the only colour i like is titanium grey and i doubt we will get it in Canada.
Ill buy local from a store here in the GTA or from PDA plaza if i get one.

64GB so far. No mention of the 128gb variant. Maybe sometime in the future. Pre-order gets you the 150$ bill credit. I know it does for Robelus not sure about Freedom tho.

When is the ROG Phone 3 going to be released in the US?

I've tried looking everywhere, but all I see are old articles about a month ago. I see other people already have it in the US, just wondering where they are getting it from? Is that the official US version because even on ASUS' website, it says it's not released yet.

according to Notebookcheck the north american version just cleared the FCC on Sept 22 and is approved for release.
https://www.notebookcheck.net/The-Asus-ROG-Phone-3-will-be-released-to-North-America-soon-as-confirmed-by-the-FCC.495193.0.html

I contacted Asus support yesterday and inquired about the release date in the US. The rep told me September 2020, so I asked if that would be next week because there were only 5 days left in September. He replied saying he was only informed that Sept. 2020 was the release date and that its possible but no guarantees. Honestly who knows at this point but it does seem like it will be very soon.

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1585046-REG/asus_zs661ks_16g512g_rog_phone_3_dual_sim.html
says coming soon on bh

Feels like it's been forever waiting for this one to release here. Hope it isn't much longer, ready to unload this 7T Pro McLaren 5G for something new.

Asus now has it available for purchase on the USA Asus store.
$1099 USD for the 16gb ram version
$999 USD for the 12gb version
https://store.asus.com/us/item/2020...-Storage--5G-LTE-Unlocked-Dual-SIM-Cell-Phone
Looks like the upgraded controller is not available for purchase yet. [emoji36]
But the twin screen is.
