Where to buy the TF701T in the UK?

Where the hell are you supposed to buy one of these in the UK?
The Asus website says to buy it at PC World who have nothing in store or on their website. Amazon UK don't have it and Amazon.de won't ship it. John Lewis don't stock it.
Laptops direct have it available but keep moving their shipping date. It's late November now......
I have the money and am ready to go. Come on Asus take it please....... :angel:

I know what you mean. Ive been searching google 5-10 times a day for somewhere in the uk to buy one. I'm wanting to replace my prime with one.
When you find somewhere please let me know.
Thanks

Hmmm tempted Let me think about it.

I keep watching on idealo in uk , seems 4 places have it now r for pre-order
laptops direct, bhs , debvenhams and amazon. good luck

I've been waiting months to get one too. Any idea why there is so much delay? Display shortages?

Expansys have them for pre-order.

In my experience they always get new products first but you pay a £20/£30 premium

Just pre-order so far.....

I found 2 on amazon.co.uk one is still unavailable and the other one is £469.99 but at the moment dispatch time is 1-2 months.
Because of under 10 post rule i can't post any outside links... or i don't know how.

The price gougers at Ebuyer have upped the price to £460.

I'm guessing most of people who wants to buy it are waiting because maybe price will drop after it will be available in more retailers then just a handful and for a pre-order.

Ebuyer have put the price back down to £429.
According to the website they are expecting a delivery on 9th Nov.

I'm not getting too excited about ebuyer's delivery estimate. After all the 9th is a Saturday. Not a common day for deliveries. Maybe they'll get them on Monday.

It'll be interesting to see if they actually have stock. Why have there been so few online reviews?

dual sim n950fd fromeglobal central uk

Hi folks,
I about to order my new note 8 from egobal UK and just wondering if anyone else has used them, what's your thoughts on them?

Experience with eGlobal Central UK is bad:
https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/eglobalcentral.co.uk

Scammers. I've had a few mates back in the UK use them.

I ended up buying a new UK 950f from eBay and so far I'm still getting it set up how I like it. It's an amazing piece of kit and so much more enjoyable than the pixel xl it's replacing. I had to use my note 2 for a couple of days inbetween selling the pixel and this arriving and I still love it even with a smashed screen but the note8 is a massive improvement even over the note 4 I had for a while.
My gear s3 came from eglobal and although the delivery was slow the experience was ok but then again I can't register it on the UK site for warranty.

Ordered N950FD from eglobal last Sunday, arrived by DPD courier on Friday. Great service and price.

Lol.

availability - when and where

so far i've seen it being sold in a fishy uk online store, which i'd rather not buy from, and romanian and polish stores, which i don't have access to.
chinese online stores shipment takes ages so i'd rather skip those too.
how is it possible to be notified about it becoming available (actually in stock) in new stores in the uk and in around europe? is it predicted to happen soon or it might take a while?

I suggest that you wait for amazon.it , amazon.es. If you have friends in France they can buy it in eLeclerc on 27.8.

I bought mine on gearbest yesterday. Shipping isn't bad for me in the US, I paid 5 extra dollars for 7-10 day shipping. And I got a free $40 mi band 3 which is a good deal.

Is that more trustworthy than Gearbest? They still haven't shipped mine :crying:
It's supposed to be restocked on the 31st, 1-2 days to start shipping, and then 7-10 days to actually ship. It's a pain.

thanks all

Would you be so kind as to notify us as soon as it arrives? I believe all of the websites are "preselling" it, but I may be wrong. Also could you tell me how the connectivity is for your mobile network? Thanks mate

Yeah I live chatted gear best, they actually get their stock on the 31st. And it'll take 1-2 days to process, and then 7-10 days to ship. They offered me a refund or an exchange instead but I said I'd just wait. So it'll probably be another week until I get it. But as soon as I do I'll post.

USA. So far, it's pretty good, but basically a Mi A1 with a better camera and 18:9 screen.

I have it since yesterday. Love it, I get a nexus feeling with stock android an such good overall speed.

i ordered one waiting for shipment , I read many negative reviews so kinda ruined my excitement for it =( How is the battery. I ordered the 6gb version, do you thinks it's worth over the 4GB?

Case in box

Ive seen a lot of unboxing videos and most were international models that all came with a case, so I just want to know if the USA model will come with a case included?

From what I've heard just international has case included ,
Sent from my A3_Pro using Tapatalk

Can someone confirm that the international/Europe s10 will have a case in the box. Have seen it as well in some unboxing vids. But have not found any confirmation on the retail box shipping since yesterday.
Will get mine hopefully next week. Eager to know if i have to spend more time searching for a case like crazy to have my investment safe at least in the beginning.
Haven't dropped a phone in a long time but I know I will first day with a new phone especially without a case.

I did not get a case with mine. You should check the retailers page about what is included in the box. At least here in Finland they specify what is included in the box and a case is not on the list.

I just got s10+ in Egypt and it had a case in the box
Clear hard plastic case and installed screen protector

Thx for the info. I ordered from Amazon in germany, living in austria. Haven't seen any info of a case on the product website. At least I will not have to wait that long to see.
But as I don't see any info of any case in the box in Europe I guess it's not included.

In India we get a pre applied screen protector and a clear hard plastic case.

In Germany - no case in box. Also the buds didn't come with the package. Presuming they might later on.

For the buds. I read have to register in some samsung app. Only available for preorderd devices. Then you get the buds sent later on.

US model: OTG adapter, AKG, charger, wall plug, and paperwork. Screen protector is pre installed.

Thx for the answers guys. Got the shipping notification today. Changes are pretty high I get it tomorrow. Will report back then as well.

I ordered on the German Samsung website, so their own online shop. The order in the online shop says it's in preparation but I already received the phone on 6th of March, so before the launch. The buds are mentioned on the order but no info about status.

I've got my phone within a contract with Vodafone Germany.
The ear buds need to be ordered in the Samsung Members app, there you have to register your device including a scan / copy of the invoice.
In my box there wasn't a case and I really don't know why manufacturers are packing different boxes for each country. It's not Samsung only, Huawei does the same and it's kinda annoying that they do this.
I'm often on international English speaking tech sites where they post stuff like "there's a case in the box" or "the S10 will have the SD855" and when it comes to the release here in Germany all hopes and expectations are getting blown away.
I'm glad that Samsung put a screen protector on the phone even for Germany.

Latin America version, no case but instead was bundled with a 128 GB SD card.

I noticed that bundle on some of the International phones selling on Ebay.

S10 from Philippines, comes with a free case

So just got it few hours ago. Surprisingly the dual sim variant. But that's OK
But no case in the box. Ordered from amazon.de sent to Austria.
Sadly almost none of the good cases sold on Amazon will ship to Austria.
Does anyone know any good site to buy cases?

I'm not sure this is the correct place to post, because it's not strictly a Huawei accessory, but just wondering if anyone had received their promo gift yet?

Not had mine in the UK yet but it did say it can take up to 30 working days. I claimed on the 18th April, was validated on the 23rd so hopefully will see it before the end of May.

Have it since a week in Germany
Greetings raffi

I got mine in a week of the P30 launch in Germany.
I registered the same day while my data was transferring from my old phone.

I have been using it for a couple of weeks now here in Italy. It took about 3 weeks, I'd say. Be patient, it'll eventually come soon.

I bought an official Huawei wireless charger from Aliexpress for £16. A lot cheaper than the extortionate UK prices for them (UK models include an extra wall charger that most won't need).

Received an email & SMS early this morning to say my speaker is being delivered today by DX.

Not had anything on mine...
Question, to try and get some kind of estimate... When date did people have their claim validated and then delivered?
Mine was validated on the 25th of April.

Got my text at 00:21 this morning from Huawei saying 'claim fulfilled' so would expect it to appear at some point today

Mine is due to be delivered on Monday ?

I'm listening to mine now. It's a great speaker, but the lack of bluetooth streaming is irksome... As is the fact it doesn't like to have media cast to it from Google Play Music... *sigh*
Still, it was free so...

Mine was validated and sent for fulfilment on the 24th of April and I still haven't received it.....

Got mine in the UK
was roughly around 3 weeks after claiming.
Its great, has absolutely destroyed bluetooth speakers for me. Streaming over wifi is different levels!
Came with DX. They're tracking isnt very good but they turned up on the day as they said they would so no complaints
