[INFO] Play.com may have revealed UK release date + price - HTC Sensation

http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...=0&searchstring=HTC+Sensation&urlrefer=search
If this is true, I'm quite happy, as it's what I was expecting
EDIT: Info has gone. Just so people who look at this later know:
Price: £499.99
Release date: 30th June

Hello redbullcat!
Long time no see (N1 with Desire S port)
Well 30th June is later than forecasted and the price is heavy
Play.com has always been wrong about price and release date...

I pre-ordered it from here yesterday.
What is the expected UK date then, if it's not 30th June?
Nothing on Amazon.co.uk yet.

Handtec are showing a slightly lower price and release date of the 8th June.

Hey, play.com no longer have the HTC Sensation available for pre-order. I wonder why? Have they allocated all their pre-order stock, or changed their minds?
My pre-order is still showing in "Open Orders" though.
Coming soon: This item is not currently available to order. Enter your email address, click the ‘Notify me’ button and we’ll let you know as soon as it becomes available to pre-order.

Odd. Maybe they put the info up too early...it is a over a month until they say the phone is released. Or maybe they did get it wrong, and handtec are right

HTC Touch Pro (Raphael) available!!!

See here: http://iteurope.eu/site/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=raphael&gclid=CL-MqeGrrpQCFQkRuwodai0d3Q
Surely not in stock, anyone here from France willing to give htem a call to see if its legit?
or even anyone in Belgium since that's where they are based. Someone should give them a call to find out if it's legit because if they have stock it means everywhere else will have stock soonish too...
The only place I've seen with any indication of stock is Play.com who say they'll have it on August 29th...
That comes out at £546 plus shipping, and play.com say £549.99 with shipping...
Apparently expected in around 4th August! (we shall see)
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=169424
Expansys are also confirming this to be the device aimed at the EU market not a grey import.

Not in stock yet, they have it in stock from 11 august. Expansys looks to be the first on the 4th of august.
Sooner than expected!
Damnit! I need some money now!

Thought it was too good to be true, looks like the 4th Aug is probably an error. Most retailers seem to be expecting it around the end of august.

Advent Vega Weapon of Choice?

The Advent Vega is due to be released in a week or so? What do people think?
For £250 the specs seem exceedingly good, so got to be worth tweaking?

I'm itching to get one pending battery capacity, review and trying it out when its released.
RElease Date
HI, went in and spoke to manager of PC world, he said he has been told he will definately have them to sell on the 18th of Nov. He said that they have added a few last minute features??
I hope they haven't affected the price with the additions.

They said the new release date is 14th. Did it slip to 18th?
might be due to it missing android market

[INFO] Apparently HTC Sensation available NOW from Superetrader...

I bought my Desire HD (from pre-order) and my wifes Milestone 2 from them, so I know they are legit 100%...
Apparently they have them in stock for GBP 599.99...
I was going to trade up from DHD, but being that I bought it in Nov 2010, it's too soon to spend that much on the phone, I'll wait for the price to drop a bit...
But if anyone wants it, it seems you can get it immediately....

"FIRST UK STOCK LANDING 17TH OF APRIL"
It might be a typo or something, but 17. 4. is already passed, which should mean it's available!
It seems they took down the page, but it still shows up on the HTC product list (and you can add it to the cart):

I saw they have 100 of these in stock but I am wondering if they are fake or not.
Like I said, I bought 2 phones from them already (my DHD was preordered 4 weeks before shipping) and bunch of people from Modaco are their customers...
So business wise they are legit...
I do however believe that it's just a pre-order and that they made a typo regarding stock dates...
very strange
during the meeting in London in April, the sensation was supposed to be available for Vodafone first at mid may
Yeap it was a typo:
THIS PRODUCT LISTING IS PRE-ORDER ONLY
FIRST UK STOCK LANDING 17TH OF JUNE

[Q] so where are the official reviews?

so the sensation is out for a few days, but no official review yet on any site... odd
Apparently HTC hasn't sent out any handsets to reviewers yet which i find a bit odd :\

Why would a device go on sale before it can be sent to reviewers....have they got something to hide or are they trying to maximize sales just in case its a bad review, either way it doesn't give me great confidence.
I remember that the first day the galaxy S II was out, the net was floded with reviews, starting from engadget, techradar and so on... on the sensation case... nada
This is what i'm worried about
I've been waiting for this device since it was leaked as the pyramid all those moons ago.
It's been released and there's barelty a squeek on the internet about it. Only here is where you can get info about it really. Slashgear did a minimum effort with news to follow...but other than that...not really much.
For a company that are producing record profits, you'd have thought that they would spend a load of money on marketing and advertising to increase sales....I went into the vodafone shop on day 2 in Colchester and they said only one person had enquired about it all day (this was 3pm).
Are they saving everything for the Evo 3D?
Have I understood something wrong or is the phone only available from Vodafone at the moment? And isn't that exclusive for them for a couple of weeks or so? Maybe htc haven't sent any to reviewers yet, because the phone is not officially available until 27th of june?
The first review is online now:
http://www.slashgear.com/htc-sensation-review-23153699/
Ooops, made a new thread when i found that review.
My bad. Sorry.
I see your point about it not being officially launched.
However, why do you say June 28th is the official date? It's widely rumored to launch on T-mobile US on June 8th. Is T-mobile also getting some advance?

Pretty generic quickie review there. That recorded video is still awful looking, and falls in line with the other video captures floating around youtube. They seem to be giving it a pass, along with the "stereo sound". Their idea of a battery test is also as unconvincing as ever. Instead of running benchmarks in their videos, they should actually show the browser performance between the two, because that is really the only thing that will stand out the most. Ugh, I expect as much from slashgear.
I picked that date from some website and don't remember which one it was. But it will be released earlier than June 28th. I know that because my operator here in Finland is expecting it to be available around weeks 23-24. They are usually at least a week behind of the other operators here, so the T-Mobile launch for June 8th might be quite accurate.

Yea, it's going to be on T-Mobile June 8th. Once there you'll see plenty of reviews.
Argh!! I was hoping for official reviews so I could get this on launch day... (June 8th) guess I will have to wait another week or so.

You still have some time and it's quite likely that GSMArena will review it by then (I said likely, not definite).
There are still 2 weeks before the 8th after all

Sites like CNet might have something (short) the day before US launch. But that may be about it.
don't think this has been posted yet...

more of a quick first impression with a full review coming but I guess it qualifies as 'official'
