Its stupid how they can sell out not even after a day. I hope this doesnt happen with the Style. Waited long enough dont want to have to wait again for them to get it back in stock.

I actually went on to the live chat and spoke to a rep there, he said that they've had an "unprecedented number of orders" since it went online and that they're "working hard to restock as quickly as possible." No ETA's though.

X style is too big for me plus the battery is 630mAh lesser. Only thing about it is Snapdragon 808 and 5.7 screen compared to SD615 n 5.5 screen.

I hear what you're saying, but how does the Atom CPU in the Zenphone run with Android, and what kind of effect does it have with running all the various Android apps & games?

Kind of off topic but those included Samsung headphones sound actually pretty good. I liked the ones that came with my S4, sounds much better than the usual crap that's included with phone purchases nowadays.

My S3 came with them. Actually right on AT&T site it says what's in the box and headphones are not listed. I thought it was kind of ridiculous since the phone wasn't cheap. That's ok though.

You say that but I may be forced to get a T-Mobile gnote3 because as of right now there are no unlocked non carrier phones compatible with USA lte. Hspa+ is decent in town, but I just moved to an apartment where the atnt hspa is barely acceptable for voice. Forget about decent data speeds. May as well be on sprint. My folks house is about a mile and they're slightly better than what T-Mobile and atnt are transmitting my area.
Thanks for the video and making me even more jealous. As for headphones, Verizon does NOT include them, hasn't the GS3, GS4, GN2, and NOT in the GN3. So yeah, we get screwed by the masters of CHEAP.

Well, how cheap is cheap?
I have no idea how things are done in the US, but here in Holland, when you buy a phone with contract, at the end of the line it's never cheaper than when you wait a couple of months (after the pre-order period) and buy an unlocked, unbranded one (after some research, since there are tons of online and normal shops to compare from)...
Off course that the pre-order period, is a totally different ball game.

I hope it will be release in the UK soon so I could buy it.
Still dont know which color though... The white one look good but I dont like the glossy finish so probably I will buy the black version.
Is it cheaper than nexus 5?

No chance of it soon officially in the UK as a dual SIM probably not until early 2015. Also watch out if you omport one - the LTE bands may only work on EE.
Reviews of the device have come up online. Most are in Chinese but that should be easily solved with some Translate.

where is a safe place to get one from?
Amazon.com, where I got mine
I bought mine from ibuygou.com which is an official Xiaomi reseller and got great customer support from them
Realize this is old but both Oppomart and HonorBuy sell authentic devices.

No question. I was also able to snag a $259.00 64 GB Nexus 6 on Amazon's Black Friday deal for my wife. Couldn't pass this MXPE deal even with no motomaker. Plenty of custom cases and wraps to pimp it out later ?
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
So I see the deal at Amazon, and I went to check out MotoMaker... I see this pricing, can someone confirm or deny what I'm seeing?
It looks like MotoX Pure 64GB with a no-contract sim for a total of $319.98, Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or reading something incorrectly.

Yeah, I don't think moto maker is worth $150, but I guess it depends on how much you like the custom design.
Bought mine via Amazon on 11/30 for $399 - chatted with them online and asked nicely and they gave me $42.50 refund - not quite the same price but close.
Very happy!!!

More a "tour" than a review. There are two kinds of testing, objective and subjective. The latter is more opinion which that video is. I want to see how S-835 and Exynos 8955 compare to each other and their predecessors, how the new Mali and Adreno GPU's stack up, how the new camera's compare to their predecessors and others on the market, battery life and charging time, and brightness and energy use of the new displays. GSMArena, Anandtech, and Notebookcheck are the best at those types of objective tests and they use the same battery of tests consistently across all the devices they test.
Here's Notebookcheck's early hands-on...

Going to go with the silver version. Felt like a change from the always dark colors, and it might not show fingerprints as badly.

Or you wait three days from when you would have received your pre-order and go in to a T-Mobile store and pick it up there. The pre-order frenzy in the T-Mobile thread is farcical. In two weeks anyone (in the U.S.) who wants a S8 can have one. The amount of energy and time being consumed by some people to get the phone a couple of days ahead of launch seems kind of odd. The irony is, at least with the Note7, AT&T'rs got their phones via FedEx before 95% of T-Mobile'rs got theirs via UPS. And the latter had tracking numbers days earlier. To each their own.

Did they say how long it would take for them to re charge your card? I see people placing orders today and have already been charged and also have shipping labels.
Sorry but it's not a great review. The amateurishness of this guy is evident when he says that the samsung chip is even better than Apple's A10 fusion chip. Also adds a sardonic "sorry apple fans"
Obviously this guy is a novice. Because any reputable You tuber knows and as seen in many videos,the iphone 7 plus wipes the floor with Samsung Galaxy S8. He sounds like a very obvious paid reviewer for Samsung.
Don't get me wrong. I have preordered the S8+. But let's be real here. In terms of sheer performance and optimization, no one can touch the iphones.
