Well the official dock is often sold with interchangeable inserts one for the normal battery and one for the (im assuming official, when i comes out) extended battery

It has. Check the HTC Accessories site...
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=168379

i will get the original cradle because of the great stylefactor. also the 3,5mm-jack is an argument for that cradle for those who need it.
the shop where i can order it wants 32€, way too much in my opinion, i will have to wait for cheaper times

it does seem too much in my opinion
but it also looks so sexyyyy lol

Yup, quite sexy. Unfortunately it's also wasting a lot of space on the desk - I doubt I'll buy it.

which shop?

german distributor shop where i can order it (i have a little job in the business...)

I have a third party desktopcharger, made by Veripart.
costs 39euro and it has a slot for extra battery to charge.
it looks good and works great. worth every euro it costs

i'd pay up to 30€ for it.. too bad it costs more.

@ diamondMflexx
pictures pictures please

Here's a review (in Dutch) of the Veripart Cradle with extra battery slot, including pictures.

anybody know of a place where i can get an extra battery and cradle together for a discounted price..?

What phone to buy

Hi boys and girls!
I was planning on buying the new Diamond 2 as soon as it hit the shelves here in Norway, but as HTC still thinks I should pay for the repair of an USB port which was DOA I have decided to try to find some other phone...
So - anyone have any good suggestions?
Cheers!

Nokia 5110
I prefer the lime green casing myself, but that is personal preference, as is selecting a device or a type of wine.

@ Red: Thanks for the suggestion, but I find it too small for my liking. My three "musts" are:
1. The handset need to be sturdy. If i forget my hammer, I need something to hit other drivers with.
2. Must come with its own backpack, and the fabric must be washable.
3. I sometimes use the phone in my care, so the top part must be possible to detach from the battery. There just isn't space in my estate car to have the battery in the front.
My best bet til now is this model:

haha great response. With all honesty go with something a bit inexpensive in the meantime if you are waiting for TP2 to be released in your country.

Actually, I'd rather go for something NOT from HTC...

Go for Touch Pro 2 or Toshiba TG01

Or buy the new HTC Touch HD ...

Thanks for the suggestion. Will have to have a look at the Toshiba. As for HTC, I'd really like to stuff the aforementioned phone (the Ericsson) somewhere the sun don't shine. Unfortunately, I think I will have to use "most people" as a baseline for sun-exposure, as I have a feeling these guys (?) do a lot of "work" on all fours

I understand your reluctance to get a HTC again I for one have a HD which is actually really good although when i first brought one it had 3 dead pixels and although htc wouldnt replace it the shop i brought it from would, now after 3 months or so my replacement has just developed a stuck pixel which I have never seen before I've has so many products with lcd screens and worked in a shop for a bit that sold them and only ever seen them come with a dead/stuck pixel. its not really noticeable but very annoying considering the price of the phone. So I was thinking thats the last time i buy a htc but then I realized there isn't any 1 else who makes anything near as good in terms of features and looks.

my first choice would be the hd

go for the HD or a super processor snapdragon on the Toshiba TG01

Bluetooth Keyboard Case For Samsung Galaxy S5

Remarks : I do 30-50 emails daily on S5.

It looks cool, though I worry about the magnet doing something to the phone over time. Probably unfounded though.
Otherwise, yeah, I've been waiting for some sort of S5 equivalent to this:

No one has comment... any one using it? Good keys for typing?
RodimusConvoy, where is your picture from? It has no S5 model yet?
It looks nice too

As far as I know, there are no versions of this for the S5, there's only versions for the S3 and S4.
I'm not sure who originally made it, as a bunch of copycats/clones have popped up. I originally saw it at Minisuit, but when I go to the website I see its no longer available. But if you put "sliding bluetooth keyboard" in parenthesis in Google, you'll get hits including where to buy it. For instance, NewEgg has it.
Though that doesn't help if you own the S5 . What you showed may be the only alternative for people who want a keyboard with the S5. And it doesn't look bad, just wondering about that magnet.

I've always been curious about this kind of case. I was looking at this one. http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/galaxy-s5-slide-out-bluetooth-qwerty-keyboard-black-p45647.htm
Sorry, I haven't used one myself...
EDIT:
On closer inspection, I don't think those pictures are the S5... S4 maybe?

Its an S4. The phone in that picture is identical to the one in the pic I posted. That site is pulling a fast one. If you look at the S5, those three "dots" are all to the RIGHT of that tiny bar at the top, plus its corners are squared compared to the rounded S4.
I saw the same thing at Alibaba. It looks like people are taking advantage of the fact people want a keyboard for their S5 by misrepresenting what they're selling.

Sorry I missed this the first time. Its an alternate unverse, evil Rodimus Prime. Its from a comic and toyline called Transformers: Shattered Glass only available during the 2008 BotCon (an annual convention for Transformers fans).

Yes, I'm very late with this response.
I didn't like it. I found the keyboard inconveniently small, and the corners of the case that clipped onto the phone broke within a few months of use. I'm still looking for a keyboard case for this phone that will give me an experience comparable to having a true QWERTY slider, and I'm really POed that there are no current options available for one.
Samsung is apparently making keyboard cases for the S6 and one of the Tabs that approximate the old Blackberry feel. Not what I'd prefer, but I wish they'd do one for the S5, so I could at least give it a try.

android 5.1 smartphone for only 4$ Niceee

XD good, well, it's cheating, really it would be $ 7 taking into account shipping.
Browsing the internet I found this video, making a review of a mobile android $ 4. I assumed it was fake and such, but not only works, but the camera does not give much cancer as other mobile 20 times more expensive and has over cables and everything.
And in comments I saw people mentioning that it (albeit with a somewhat slow shipping) and who bought in this shop: shop251now.com/
Here is the video:
The only "negative" I see is that the battery is 1500mAh ... but for $ 4 is really something to complain about? xD
yeah

mine here is expensive than yours, samsung generally costs same with you even higher. the phones in low price are not likely to be the brand, chinese has many android phones, and they have good price with second or third famous brands.

I will give try just to see

Question S22 Ultra Exclusive Samsung colors

Does a real picture of the exclusive Samsung colors exist? I want to see what they look like in real life before i decide to order one or not. More specifically, I'm trying to figure out if the edges of the graphite colored phone is going to be a black/dark like the phantom black, or will it have a chrome/metal looking side. It's hard to tell on the render they have in the website. From the from view it looks black/dark and from an angle it looks Chrome.

**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S22 Family Thread ****
My Graphite order hasn't changed, it still says heading to my country. On a separate note, I finally went into Curry's to have a play with a S22 Ultra, it was the 8Gb/128Gb model. And my word it was super fluid and fast at doing everything I tried on it. Opened lots of apps, repeatedly...

My Graphite S22Ultra is still waiting to be delivered, hopefully not long now.

Thanks. I really just to know that it's going to look like in real life... Not on some rendered picture that might look different from what it really looks like

You can check out some reviews on YouTube...

Try browsing Reddit Galaxys22, plenty of Samsung exclusive pictures in there.

Flossy Carter did a video of the Red one earlier today, I have 2 Graphite ones. I'll take a picture in a moment and post it.
Edit: It has a lamp on top so it looks a little brighter than normal.

Damn that is sexy. I have ended up placing two orders.
One Phantom Black and the other Graphite.
Will cancel whichever doesn't ship first but I hope I end up with Graphite.

That looks really nice. Does it have a shimmer or metallic touch to it or is it completely matte?

My burgundy looks more like purple... Never knew Samsung to actually match the true colors for their actual phones once you have them in your hands. All a moot point anyways since it is truly just the 1% that rock this phone naked without a case or at least a skin.
