hi all, i found on ebay a brand new unopened Acer Iconia Tab A200 tablet that comes with a Euro 2-pin plug. the seller said its approved to work in all EU countires uncluding the UK and he would throw in a 2-pin to 3-pin UK adapter for me.
now what i want to know is, since it is a European tablet, will the Android 4.0 that it comes with work fine in the UK? will i get the same google play store as every other device in the UK? and will anything work different at all in the UK?

Hi

I'll be updating this list plz tell me if ya'll know any more or cheaper price
Available in europe:
Energizer 3position ranges from about 55-100euro
Lg wcp-700 about 70euro's
Oregon time/charge station 120euro+
Philips DLP7210B (39euro in germany, 19,90euro postage to other country's) 56euro on ebay
Maxell air charging mat 70euro+
Qi standard wireless charging pad (Chinese no brand I gues: NOT CONFIRMED if this works) 42euro's
OEM lg verizon qi smarth charger 55euro
Update 04/12:
Added maxell air charging mat
Added phillips dlp7210b-10

Think we might have a few too many of these wireless charging topics now, but hey that is just me. If you are in Europe you can try and find the Maxwell Air Voltage range of Qi charges :-

It was confirmed these do work with the Nexus (a member called Higgsy bought one and has shown a video of it working).
Yeh, I know but I couldn't really find much of them in Europe thats why I made a new one,more for the European interested people
Sent from my LT15i using xda app-developers app
I've checked around and have found maxell air mat for 60euro's thats still very high to my opinion for a charger
Still looking for cheaper, thanks for the response

Hi,
I really want a TF700, but the UK price is ridiculous, and I don't want/need the 64GB.
So, although the idea terrifies me, I want to import one. Can anyone help with a few questions, please? (I know some of these can be answered elsewhere, but I thought I'd throw them in while I was asking the main one about importing. Sorry).
If the tablet comes with 4.0, will I, from the UK, be able to get an automatic, official upgrade to Jelly Bean? (If not, I'm happy to go custom, which I've done on a couple of phones)
Do I need a fancy power adaptor, or will the bog standard US to UK ones work just fine?
If I get one without the dock, can I use the dock from anything else in the same line?
When importing, say I do it through eBay (a decent, well reseached seller, such as BuySpry, perhaps), are there any other potential hidden charges other than the price and the stated shipping cost?
And finally, can anyone recommend where to import one from (to the UK)?
I'm very grateful for any advice. Thanks.

Hi bought my tf700 tablet from the US on Ebay, it took about 3days to arrive at DHL in the Midlands. DHL phoned me to advise me that I had to pay the duty which was about 62 pounds. I also bought a charger on Ebay for about 12 pounds. You can also use the US charger I plugged it in to a travel adapter. I have done all the Asus updates on my tablet with out any problems at all.
I believe the tf201 keyboard/dock is the same as the one for the tf700
I imported mine from Amazon Germany. Weirdly it was dispatched from Milton Keynes in 2 days. Stickers had German on though when unpacked but fired up in English straight away.
I didn't have to pay any duty and with the euro exchange rate at the time I saved a bit of cash as well. :good:
I just bought a travel plug adapter for the power pack and it works fine.
Thanks, both. Hadn't thought of Germany. Hmmm...
Hey guys,
I've been browsing around and came across a Chinese brand known as ThL. They sell very cheap smartphones with good specs. They're official website is www thlmobilestore.com . I was wondering if anyone ordered from this website? Or if you got a ThL phone from another website? If either, did you experience any problems, with customs, quality, etc? Just wondering before I go buying, as it would be rather expensive to go returning it to China. Thanks.
Hello there! I am searching an online shop to buy smartphone and tablet accessories with fast shiping to greece. My first choise is mobilefun but it doesnt have big stock on cases and screenprotectors except Olixar brand. Also i cant buy from amazon because it doesnt accept paypa, and its the only chosie of paypayment i have. Any ideas?? Thanks in advance!
i have bought the phone from aliexpress from the official xiaomi store in chine. My question is this: since I have given them an american address to ship the phone to, do i get american charger or european charger with 2 prongs? I have seen all reviews of unboxing of the phone and I have yet to see an american charger in the box.
This phone is global version for EU/CIS.
it is not sold either within China or the United States. This is an export model. There is hardly a version with your charger. However, the same chargers come with Mi10 and Redmi k30 pro, which are sold in China. You can buy it separately.
They send you an EU plug with a small prong adapter so it fits into US outlets - still works just fine and at full speed, just a tad bulkier.
