literally, ive called best buy coporate every single day since last sunday when i preordered our two thunderbolts, every single time ive gotten a different person, every single time i get the exact answer....
BEST BUY will be releasing it on the 14th, that does not mean verizon stores or other retailers will release it, but best buy will 100% be releasing it the 14th
the price is 199 w 2 year, again confirmed everyday this week by different personal including supervisors at best buy corporate, and best buy corporate mobile consultants.
why is all the speculation floating around? call 1800best buy, ask to speak with a mobile consultant, tell them you preordered and you demand to know the release date, you will get the exact same answer every single time!!!!
again 100% release date the 14 of feb ONLY BEST BUY
price WILL BE $199 ONLY BEST BUY!!
no speculation or rumor, call and see!
I highly doubt that Verizon is going to allow their flagship 4G device to be sold at Best Buy before it is available in the Verizon stores. If Best Buy releases it on the 14th it will be in Verizon stores on the 14th.
Edit: Also it is not going to be 199.99 (can't post this as a link but you can go to the bellow site and see)

somehow i doubt the 750 price mark
thats nuts for a phone, tablets are cheaper than that!
some part of the paper doesnt make sense too..
my local best buy told me it was 749 on the phone last week but then when I went in store to reserve mine, they didn't have a clue so who knows
I'm 100% positive Best Buy reps have as much knowledge of confirmed release dates as we do.
Signs are pointing to the 24th, imo.

I'm not trusting that price mark either to tell you the truth, especialy since it seems to have changed in their system over night. However it isn't going to be 199.99 either

hahah I don't think anything is "confirmed" at this point until it comes from verizon. This is starting to remind me of the college football expansion talk
Verizon is releasing 24th I too was told by best buy mobile the 14th absolutely they rnt on the same time frame as vzw ..HTC says the phone is ready and best buy is releasing it..I don't understand vzw waiting its rediculous to me..but vzw never worries abt taking care of their customers like ..well ..best buy does..

Like I said I highly doubt Verizon will allow this, if Best Buy releases it before it is in VZW stores then VZW will simply not allow Best Buy to sell their phones. This is VZW's flagship 4G device there is not way that VZW is going to allow someone else to sell it first.

It's highly possible still because they are independent stores and if they do sell early then Verizon can do jack about it
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
who cares if you can pre order from best buy early. last year when the incredible came out you could pre order from best buy and guess what? best buy was only shipped 10 phones and all the other people that preorderd got theirs when verizon finally released it. i have been told by a few vrz reps 24 is the day.

I understand what you are saying here, however those independent stores will find themselves unable to offer any contract pricing with VZW or have the ability to turn on the phone. So even if you got it from a Best Buy like that early you would still have to go to VZW to activate the phone.
Not to mention VZW would most certainly be able to tell the store that they can not sell a phone that has VZW branding all over it.

Not sure on that. The phone is HTC's property, not Verizon's. HTC can stop the release, not sure that Verizon would have the legal power to stop them. They could definitely throw threats out there, but not sure that it would do any good. They COULD decide to not activate any of the phones until their release date, which would still be pointless. What difference does it make what phone you are using? One other thing, if this delay was due to software problems, what was the point if you could push an update 10 days later?
The phone just got approved a couple of days ago by the FCC , one reason for a delay.

Actually, It makes sense for Verizon to allow customers to buy the Bolt from Best Buy on Valentine's Day while they sell it at a later date because they can hustle customers into not cashing in their last NE2 credit in some cases and more importantly (for VZW), hustle more people into getting 2-year contracts with BB instead of 1-year contracts (or no contract) with them.

I've seen phones show up on the FCC site 2 weeks after it's release, Verizon dictates the date the phone shows up on that site not the FCC. The phone was reviewed and passed federal clearance weeks if not more than a month ago I'm sure.
Whatever , looks lile the 24th now.Just 2 more weeks.

I've made a few calls to some Metro Detroit T-Mobile Stores and all of them told me June 15th. Has anyone got confirmation from their local T-Mobile store will have it on-sale any soon?
Also, any info on how to find the Select Walmarts on June 12th? Wonder if that means 12:01am you can get it at a 24hrs store.
I will be getting one of these bad boys as soon as I possibly can
-CMYLXGO
UPDATE 6/8/2011: It appears that Walmart stores that have inventory are selling them for $600 off contract and $148.88 for 2-Year contract.
UPDATE 6/12/2011: Here is a PDF print out of the Walmart Ad showing the price at $148.88 for those that want to try and price match incase their local Walmart is out of stock due to this post on XDA
this the kind of thread people lash at you lol. You called ths stores like I did and they said the 15th.... xda isnt gonna be able to tell you different.. i would just look @ tmobile news via droiddog dot come and call your local stores friday saturday and sunday and the days prior to the 15th... good luck.. i want it bad too!
I went to my local T-Mobile store and they also would only disclose June 15th as the go-live date for the Sensation @ T-Mobile Stores.
However, he showed me their Sensation display phone and said that they were receiving boxes (6/5) that were shrink wrapped and labeled do not open till 6/8. He couldn't confirm but he thinks its marketing/advertising stuff and that's when they need to start putting up the marketing and display material up in their store.
In checking out the demo phone (not working) and actually holding it in my hand, the feel and look of the phone are pretty sweet!

Well...let me set my track record here first...
I was able to get my TouchPro2 2 days early by heading to some select BestBuy stores that had inventory on hand and was willing to sell it. It was a thread just like this that made it possible.
I was also able to get my HD2 2 or 3 days early by calling several local T-Mobile stores. The store I went to said...if the phone is in the system and I have the unit in hand they will sell it. And they did.
So...this is a usefull thread if indeed the phones get sold prior to June 15th. The sooner I get a phone, the sooner I will be able to release a tested ROM or Add-ON.

Out of the 8 local stores I called, one confirmed that they would have them tomorrow June 8. So I'll be there first thing tomorrow and picking one up. Hopefully they stick to their word..
EDIT: Well damn it, I called again to double check and wouldn't you know it, they changed the date to 15th.. Two locations initially said 8th now the 15th.. FFUUU

That is some BS...If it was coming out on the 8th they would know today since they would need to be ready for it tomorrow morning. Morons!
I'm a T-Mobile USA employee. In a meeting it was originally announced for June 8th but recently that was changed to June 15. Reason is unknown. Speculation is a few last minute bug fixes.
The employee I spoke with had to ask one of his colleagues. At this point, I have just about resigned myself to waiting another week. I just sold my MT4G, so it's back to my trusty old G1 for a week.

I guess its off to Walmart then
Two tmobile locations in NJ told me the 8th, however, that was last Wednesday.
Will Walmart allow me to buy it off contract? Or are they strictly contracts and shenanigans?
I chatted with a T-Mobile rep yesterday. They said if I buy thru Walmart it will be thru Walmart Mobile. I don't understand this. They pretty much said I can't upgrade my current contract to get the HTC Sensation. I will have to wait till the 15th and get it thru T-Mobile. They also said they had the launch on the 15th of July in there system.

Great. My G2X sells in one hour on ebay.

I'm good with this idea for a thread. Almost started it myself earlier today.
I've rooted and ROM'd phones for two employees at my city's largest T-Mobile store. One being a manager. They are always cool with me and will hold their first Sensation for me. We text each other with news so they said if they get them in for tomorrow's possible first day they would let me know. No word yet on receiving stock for tomorrow.
I live in Greensboro, NC. Not the biggest market so maybe they aren't on the premium stores list. If he texts me... this is the first place I'm posting.

Well, I've been calling around today. I did find a local "Authorized Retailer" that said they were getting their shipment in this Monday and were selling them. I even asked twice just to make sure. Giving them a call Monday morning to confirm. If so, I will do my best to grab one early.
I just got back form my local AT&T store to play with the One X and ask when they were going to start selling it. They already have the stock but are going to sell it on the 6th... but anyway, the One X is probably the most capable phone I've ever used.
It's a shame, my stores is one of the ones that follows the rules... Lol. So they're selling on the 6th.
I pre ordered though, so it's just a few more days, but I was still hoping to cancel it and buy it tomorrow, haha.
Haha yeah i think my store also follow the rules. I also pre ordered mine but through Amazon Wireless to save so major dough because I live in CA. Supposed to get it on the 9th . I hope I get it earlier though, but who doesn't lol. I can't stop thinking about this thing!! I probably shouldn't have gone and played with it today because it just makes me so much more impatient..
Did any of you who talked to a store with them in stock pre-order through that same store? I am curious if they would let one go early if you had already paid for it...
---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------
Just called my local store - they won't tell me if they already have any in stock. They just keep saying you can pre-order now or buy in store on May 6th...
To answer your question, I pre ordered through Amazon Wireless, but either way, I don't think they would have let one go just for me....
the sales person in the corporate store said they will be getting shipment on Sunday, i asked if i can get one by pre ordering, he said that i wont need to, just walk in, : D
The people getting it early are so lucky! Often times, employees get threatened with facing some consequences for selling the phone before release. But others just want a commission.
The Galaxy S III is just around the corner. Why pick up the One X early instead of seeing what Samsung has produced?

Anyone know how much is the restocking fee if you want to exchange for another phone?
Spoke to a manager today at the Bell store.
They told me they are very sure the phone will be coming to Bell stores on May 3rd. Pricing was not 100% positive but is expected to be around $650 no contact, which is almost identical to the $640 projected for the USA.
(old news) You can pre-order the phone for 50 dollars from most of the various carriers. This is a DOWN PAYMENT.
Just figured I would share since it seems Canada isn't getting too much love Looking forward to the launch
PS. I looked at the Xperia ZL while I was there and it was a very nice phone, I don't get what all the screen fuss is about.

If it's like last year, the phone will be $50.00 cheaper @ Virgin. So get your phone from them if you are with Bell.

Ah, I must have missed that post, thanks. None of the other threads here on XDA have mentioned it.
PS. I did tilt the screen, it wasn't that bad IMO.
Do you have any information about the 32Gb version? Phone reservation is only available for the 16Gb model...
no scheduler about 32gb version
Hmm, Pre-Orders are open now, phoned several bell stores that confirmed they will have them in stock on April 27th.
It will be 699.95 Off contract or 199.95 on a 3 year contract or upgrade.
I cant post links but the infos on bells website
They will only be in stock for those with all the pre - order paperwork AND picture lD. And you must pick up the preorder before May 3. And you must prepay the entire amount. Can't wait!

Perhaps it depends on whether it's a Bell Store or another retailer. My receipt is very specific and the service person said for the last pre-order they got only exact numbers.

Is it available right now though? I was supposed to get mine Saturday. Got a call and $50 credit Friday and a text Saturday dating I could pick up in 2 days so I'm going Monday after work.
