Why should htc cruise cost £389.95 (euro 545.73) in the UK whereas should it cost euro 629 in Italy?
There are 84 euro of spread!!!!!!
I would buy it from Uk. Do you know if the device could work in Italy with for example simcard Tim?
Excuse me for my english

Since expansys is selling a no-brand device, should work also here... Probably expansys forward your request to the Italian branch so you'll pay the italian price instead of the UK's price

Hi!
I'm brazinlian boy and i'd like so much buy this phone, i have a friend that he will go back to italy i 'm thinking ask him to buy one for me...so, has anyone who knows some site(italian, expansys i already know) to buy this? in brazil, but this gadgets is a hole of ****! in Brazil doesnt have HTC and waranty goes heaven and the price very expansive!example if you would like to buy htc p3600 outside brazil you can find around $500. Here it costs around R$2000,00($more than $1000).
Sorry for my bad english
bye!

The difference in the price depends mostly on what the package include (i.e. Navigation Software). If you buy your device from expansys it is sim-unlocked to use in any network. If you buy it from somewhere else... ensure first that it is not sim locked.

I don't understand device price structuring, how does Apple sell iPhone for 399$

iPhone is locked to AT&T who subsidizes the cost of the unit. Adding over a million subscriptions for two years of service with many of them being new services (from other carriers) just to get 'the phone'. Costs AT&T next to nothing because they are not adding infrastructure, just filling bandwidth that has been somewhat idle. . . the business model is pretty good. Apple gets their cost+profit on the sale of the device while AT&T reap service and data plan charges. They don't even effect their HSDPA bandwidth because the device is EDGE/GPRS.

Yeah I understand the kickback scheme. But the device is still sold independently of carriers (ie. Apple Stores), so you're saying over half a million unlocked devices were/are sold at cost or at a loss to Apple?

i let you guys know tomorrow i should have it ..well i hope to have it tomorrow

htc hd2 / leo - launch in the UK

hi,
i've been checked with the various providers that are supposed to launch this phone - o2/vodafone/t-mobile in the UK - but no one seems to have it in stock or have a clue on when it is expected. any insights into this or know where i can get one on contract in london.
thanks

O2 and T-mobile sell it atm. However there are very few in stock in the shops and the best way to get one would be to online order :/

Try Clove online., they are very reputable & fair prices.

thanks but o2 doesn't have it online yet and t-mobile doesnt have it in stock either and noone seems to have an idea when more will be available. while could buy it upfront would prefer to get it on contract. thanks.

If you didn't want it on contract then I would suggest these guys (just off Tottenham Court Road): www.inkino.co.uk
On contract is harder. Have you tried www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk or www.mobiles.co.uk ?

[Q] Stores in the UK that sells HTC Phones

Hey I am new here
I am flying to the UK (London) in the end of May, and I wanted to ask if someone who lives in London knows any store there that sells Sim-Free HTC Phones? Basically I am asking that because I want to buy the HTC Sensation and I have only 4 days in London so I want to be prepared.
If there are several stores, I would like to hear all of them if you can or the cheapest+most reliable one (as much as possible ofcourse).

You'll have to buy if from vodophone unlocked

Sure it is possible?
And thanks for the comment.

I am not sure Vodafone sell unlocked phones. Your best bet will be any Carphone Warehouse store. All their phones are unlocked. If you ask to buy PAYG, you will save about £50 on the sim-free price but the good thing is you get the same phone you would have got if you bought it sim-free + you get a number and £10 or £20 credit to use while you are in London.

First, Thanks!
Second, I searched for the store near my Hotel and I found one really nearby so now I want to ask another question, if you have experience buying phones from them or heard something, Do they overprice? I mean here where I live I can go to the store and the price will be 800 pound and in Amazon it will be 600 pound for example.. not that huge differences but I hope you got my point.
Third, Do they get the last phones usually after they come out? because if it's said that the Sensation will come out on mid May, and I am coming on end May, I hope they'll have it by then.

Carphone Warehouse!

As far as I'm aware, Vodafone have it exclusively for May then other retailers will start selling in June, so you may be out of luck I'm afraid

[Q] Sensation O2 UK

Hi,
I am new here and this is my first question.
I live in Eastern Europe but a friend of mine offered to get me a HTC Sensation in UK, that she can get through her subscription to O2 UK.
I would like to know if I get this phone do I have to unlock it to use in other country?
Do the O2 Sensations have custom menus and applications? If so, is it possible to get rid of them?
I'm sorry if these questions have been answered here but I couldn't find them.
If this is not the right place to find these answers, could someone point me to where I can find them?
Thank you.
Caty.

If it's direct through O2 it will have their own ROM, which has O2 splash screens and pre-installed apps. I don't know if it's SIM locked though, although I don't it is
I'd get your friend to get it from Carphone Warehouse as they only supply unbranded handsets so you'd have no issues

So you think these apps and splash screens are not deletable?
She is getting me from O2 because she can get it for 100 pounds with her subscription.
If she has to get from Carphone then I would buy it here because the price will probably be the same, around 450 pounds.

You can get it on upgrade on any network from Carphone Warehouse - I got mine on Vodafone for free (albeit a new contract)

I think you didn't understand.
Because my friend already has a subscription on O2 she can get the phone for 100 pounds.
If she were to buy from Carphone that phone would cost 450 pounds and that is a huge difference for me.
It's the difference between buying it and not even thinking about it.
If she couldn't get it for 100 Pounds I wouldn't even consider an HTC Sensation.

If she is looking at an upgrade (as in at the end of the existing contract) she can get it from any shop, and going to Carphone Warehouse would mean she gets the unbranded handset. She doesn't have to get it from O2 directly.
If she is getting an early upgrade then yes it'd probably have to be direct from O2

I guess it's an early upgrade because she haven't been in UK for long.
She got some special offer in an e-mail from O2.

I've got an o2 Sensation. The only branding I noticed is an o2 wallpaper that is easily changed. Seems to be practically unbranded otherwise.
The only advice I would offer is be careful in case you need to return it, I had to send my first two back for having dust under the screen. The third one seems to be developing it again

Dust under the screen?
That sounds bad.
Having to send it all the way back to UK and risk the package getting "lost" would be terrible
I'm glad that the branding is easy to delete, though.
I still have to think about getting it.
Any other problem that we should check in case I decide to get it?

OnePlus 6 not existing on Amazon UK?

Hi,
I saw how the OnePlus 6 came out today, and how it is for sale everywhere but Amazon in the UK. I don't particularly like buying from Germany, as I don't want to pay the extra conversion rate fee, if any.
Please can someone confirm when it will be available on Amazon in the UK.
Kind regards

I'm from the UK, always buy through the official OnePlus website starting at £469 and wait for shipping or get 64gb for £499 from the O2 shop in-store.
They have not ever launched with another partner in the UK other than o2

Thanks
I just ordered it off the official website. Shame I have to wait a week for it though

Yeah I went to the popup in London, at lunch time was too busy but went after work and got it quickly! It's worth the wait - I wish I waited and used my student discount now!

o2 have matched oneplus website pricing, if it's not official yet (i was told it will be today) you do need a £15 payg sim if buying it outright though.
EDIT: yep prices are matched on o2 website now, pop in to a store and get it there and then or click and collect (skipping the payg sim requirement)
