I thought that we could tips each other out with links and stores where to buy the S IV!
Preferable the phone should be sold unlocked so as many as possible could use it!
Here is my contributions as far:
Expansys.com
Negrielectronics.com
dbelectrical (Ebay)
Three and O2 Ireland haven't disclosed their prices yet, but will be allowing you to preorder soon enough.

Hello,
I have been looking everywhere for the Nexus One desktop dock in Canada, but have not yet found a supplier. Would anyone know where's the best place to get one? Ebay is overpriced... I am looking anywhere from 50-70 USD.
Thanks.
bump... anyone?
I think you can buy one through android.com if you have a developer account. You might also try to order through http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/, but I'm not sure if they ship to North America.
I'm worried about where I'm going to get a replacement battery down the road. I always assumed that Google would continue to sell accessories after discontinuing the phone, but I guess they decided to give us a big middle finger instead.

Looking everywhere...
I called Nexus one support ---> tried to help me find one, but no avail.
I called america HTC shop ---> cannot use canadian based creditcard or paypal, they only ship to america. (i was actually okay with this since I could have asked my friend to send it over to me once received)
I checked accessory shop at UK (non in canada) ---> they do ship to canada, but they are out of stock until september 5th. Plus shipping is expensive
I checked ebay ---> I'm not going to bother explaining this one
I checked Amazon ---> 120 (with shipping). too expensive.
I'm getting pissed off now. Way to go google. This is the first time I'm questioning google's marketing team.
I have a pretty much brand new one for sale if you like. Think I've used it twice all up since I got it with my N1 5 months ago from the US?
I am based in Australia but am happy to ship worldwide.
I have sent you a PM.
cheers
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

I currently live in the US, and I'm about to go back to Korea for my mandatory military service. I want to buy a Nexus S in the states and take it to Korea, because it's a little bit more cheaper here. I saw a post here saying that the i9020T from T-mobile is the same as SHW-M200K, SHW-M200S from Korea. So if I buy the i9020T here would It work in Korea?
Frequency checks out for SK Telecom, but the other 2 carriers in SKorea, I am unsure of.

Thanks for checking it out. I'm going to bestbuy this weekend to get the T-mobile version then. One last question - is the price of nexus s rapidly dropping everywhere except bestbuy? if so then should I look for a different place to buy it? Thanks again.
If you're gonna buy it outright, its cheaper to buy online at different websites than from best buy. BB has it for 529.99 + tax. I found some for 459.99 at other sites. Keep in mind that bc some of these sites aren't physical stores, you won't have to pay for tax. Also a lot of them have free shipping and online coupons if you look for them.

I found a HTC One X+ (AT&T version) on ebay. The matter is the price. The auction started in 370 USD. I think that is too cheap. The description says this
I am selling the latest HTC ONE X+ 64GB which is locked to ATT network. This is an upgrade in almost every department of the already fantastic and popular One X. Buyer assume full responsibility if purchasing to unlock and use on any network other than ATT. This phone is only two and a half weeks old and used for only about a week. It was in the Speck grip case from the time of purchase and is included in this auction. As you can see in the pictures the original charger and sync cable are still in wrappers. Included in this auction are the original box and manuals, phone, battery, AC wall charger and Sync cable, Sim eject pin, and brand new SPECK candyshell grip case. US bidders only and will ship to continental US only. I accept Paypal only as payment.

So I don't know if is this a scam, or there is a problem with this particular version, or it is impossible to unlock I don't know. What do you think guys about this version?
Well how many days are left on it? Nowadays people usually wait to bid last second on eBay and even if it was a scam and you paid your money eBay and PayPal will always side with the buyer usually

Are there any comments about this version?
You could try posting in the One X+ forum and checking with people who already own the device?

Auctions often start at a low price to attract attention. As mentioned, most the bidding happens on the last day of the auction, even the last hours/minutes. Bidding a high price early just pushes the auction price unnecessarily high.
Bidders determine the ultimate price of the item. So you can't tell if an eBay auction is a scam, solely by price. Look at the sellers rating.

I found the auction:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-One-X-6...1039819421?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item1c2e89129d
There are four days left to go. Rest assured the price will go up substantially based on what others are selling for.
The seller has two feedbacks, both from selling phones, apparently both today. I would be a bit wary of this--who knows where he got these?

Thanks for your comments. I sent a mail to the seller asking this:
Hi
1.- Which is the firmware version?
2.- Did you try to unlock it before?
3.- Why are you selling this htc?
Cheers

He answered this:
I do not have the firmware version readily available. The phone is already boxed and ready for shipping because someone already had won it in a previous auction. However he was from Russia and I do not ship internationally and so this is a relisted auction. I can unbox it tomorrow and power it on and give you the firmware number. I have never attempted to unlock the phone but I have read that it is definitely possible but I am unsure of what networks it would work on. That is up to the buyer however it is my understanding that it should work on any GSM network worldwide as long as the bands are supported. I am selling the phone because I am somewhat of a phone junkie and have many different phones. I am currently using a Lumia 920 and at the moment prefer the WP8 platform. I also have the LG Optimus G and a Samsung S3!!! I will probably be selling those off too in the near future. If you look at my history I have sold already a One X, Focus 2, Atrix 2, and Galaxy S3

Could be, If only there was a bit more detail.
Does anybody know what the price will be within the US?
Also, should I wait a month for the price to drop? (I heard it drops after a month)... first time buying a phone out right

Sweet jesus!.. I thought these new phones start around 599.
Do you have to buy from an "authorized dealer" for Samsung to cover the phone for the warranty?

Samsung doesn't really warranty unlocked phones sold in the U.S. as they aren't really meant for U.S. retail sale.
Your best bet is just buying one outright from your carrier, Best Buy (for their warranty), or putting it on your home owner's insurance policy. You can even buy 3rd party insurance like SquareTrade.

This came up in another thread and my personal thoughts about Expansys is to wait a bit until they get their information about what they will send and when they will send it more correct. They have failed to reply to my Email (over 4 days now) about verifying the exact model #s and capabilities of the S4s they are going to sell. Do what you want, but I'm going to buy from an authorized dealer (AT&T, Best Buys, Radio shack, etc...). There are reputable dealers that use Amazon (and I presume Ebay) but I'm not going to take a chance with this kind of money.
Close to launch day, and still no news about availibility on Amazon!

So if you buy from Bestbuy unlocked phone, the warranty is from Best Buy and not Samsung? I believe this will come from third party companies, much like Best Buy extended warranty.
Now I'm curious, if I buy from Bestbuy using my American Express card, will I get the extended warranty from American Express?
S4 begin to be available in France, but still no news from Amazon :crying:
Amazon Germany is clueless as always with mobile releases.....
Not always! I had the HTC One before everyone in France ordered on amazon.de
Did someone receive the S4 from Amazon europe?
can someone tell me where can i find the phone in uk online or in stores near london without being in a monthly contract. its out of stock everywhere
I canceled my order on Amazon and purchased the phone directly from the Samsung Mobile Store in Paris, why should I wait when a physical shop had it available nearby ? Amazon just weren't fast enough to my tastes.
Phone is now "in stock" in Amazon.fr
