Hi,
Sorry if I don't post in the right section...
The Nexus 6P is finally up for sale in France since Monday.
I was trying to purchase it on the Google store and wanted to add the Nexus Protect warranty but I can't find the option to purchase it...
Is this just me being dumb not able to find it on the Google store, or has Google decided not to offer this warranty in France (or other countries outside the US)?
I'd be surprised because Apple offers similar warranty in Franche for iPhone purchase.
Also, in the French media (before the Nexus 5X/6P were effectively put for sales) it was mentionned that the Nexus protect would be sold as well in France (with an estimated price of €99 for 2 years)...
Anyone knowing how I could purchase this warranty?
Hi,
Nexus Protect is only available in the U.S and Canada. Google announced nothing about France getting it.
Thank you
Very disappointing and stupid from Google, especially given the poor quality (from what I read and hear) repair/return service from Huawei in France...
As a result, I'm now hesitant getting this phone...

I'm confused i have seen expansys selling nexus s for AT&T but it's nowhere to be found on the AT&T site :/ , so it's only a Canadian model that happens to work on AT&T bands? the iPhone 4 is not on the AT&T site either, what's going on with that?
I'm hoping to get a nexus prime but since they don't seem to fully carry the nexus s, there's Little chance that they'll sell the prime

It's not available on the ATT site. It is available exclusively through Best Buy (as is the T-Mobile variant) in the US:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung...d=2356115&st=nexus s&cp=1&lp=1&contract_desc=
don't bother with Nexus 3 (prime) until it hit store shelf next year 2012
the first release is only on verizon network, not GSM
From what I read or maybe im blind lol but 2 nexus Devices Passed Thru The FCC lol

how ridiculous is that? selling a phone exclusively through a store, i can almost forgive them that, but there are NO traces of the phone on the AT&T site , BIG MISTAKE

Well, no carrier stocked the Nexus One in their stores either (US).
When Google set out with the Nexus S they got away from distributing the phones themselves and needed someone with a distribution network in place. They partnered with Best Buy in the US and Car Phone Warehouse abroad to accomplish this. Part of the agreement was that it remained an exclusive device (for obvious reasons).
This gave them not only an established distribution network, but also a partner who could advertise to a broad customer base and get a hands on experience with the device. Every Best Buy had a Nexus S on display and they pushed it for the holiday season (Dec 16th release). This potentially drew in customers from other mobile networks who handled the device as well as gave existing mobile subscribers the chance to get a "hands on" with the device before purchasing. This was a huge step forward.
If you want to blame someone for not having it on AT&T's site, blame AT&T. They are the only ones who control that content. Best Buy has it listed for new lines as well as upgrades.

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

Oh wow that's horrible! There have been users here that somehow get it shipped to a courier in a different country then shipped to them. Hopefully one can help you in your situation. I didn't know about the whole situation with Google in China. Best of luck to you!

I live in Shanghai and bought a US version 32GB for 3,000 RMB. I am aware that I won't be able to use LTE in the future, but I wasn't prepared to go for a HK version for near enough the same price and only 16GB.
I bought online from Taobao - http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.5.w4002-1856930535.34.1QlftW&id=35735211682 - A reputable seller who throws in a lot of freebies like screen protector, case, extra usb cable etc.
You will need a Chinese bank card to use though.
Otherwise I'm sure there are camera markets in Guangzhou where you can buy imported versions.

I've checked on that site before, but was looking for a physical store in Guangzhou City to go to! Hopefully there's a Hong Kong / ROW version because LTE is on 1800mhz here in New Zealand!
Thank you!
Buy from Japan and get it reshipped through jshoppers Tenso.
Or else wait a few days, Google Play HK is rumoured very very soon. Prices will be around HK$3.2k for 16GB and HK$3.6k for 32GB.
I happened to have lost my Sony Z3 Compact in a cab in China last week and am on the hunt for a new phone .. I was for 90% sure that the Play was going to be my next, but they've just announced the pricing and availability in Australia. Here it comes, both the Play and Style will be released next month (regarding the Play, why is it so hard to release it worldwide on the same day??) and both will be only be available through Vodafone (Really?? Carrier-locked while the rest of the world gets it unlocked?!) , which has 5M subscribers out of 30M total mobile subscriptions (most at Telstra and Optus) and the worst coverage possible. The Play might be sold "later on" for the beautiful price of 569AU$ (to be confirmed, =378E, 420US$), making it a mid-range phone at the price of a Z3 and around 70AU$ more expensive than my lost Z3 Compact..

Sorry for this little rant, but I could barely believe what I just read. It looks like Moto is not even trying to sell the phone over here..
Oh yeah, feel free to recommend me any Android phone I'm currently looking at the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 or a HTC One M8/Samsung S5 (can find them refurbished for +- 345AU$). I highly dislike Touchwiz and never thought it'd be buying a Samsung device, but none of the other manufacturers have anything compelling to offer around that price (and I dislike the OP2's invite system even more than Touchwiz). Thanks!
Yeah odd move by Motorola, I guess they aint too fond of Vegemite.
I think my logic makes the most sense lol

Flipping Heck! Vodafone have released off contract price.
AUS$792 ... When a phone costs more than the UK price you know thats bloody expensive!

nah, Canada sells it carrier locked too...
Well... there's this one thing that doesn't suck about mobile phones in brazil: they sell it unlocked and even the contract binded ones are unlocked or easily unlockable.
This thread is for Europe pre-orders
Just ordered 64gb Orchid Gray S8. Decided on S8 rather than S8+ I figured a 5.7" screen was big enough!
This is my first ever Samsung phone, coming from OnePlus 3T. Really like the screens they are amazing.
Would be interested to know more about the processor and if bootloader will be unlockable like US versions. Actually with the 3T I just kept it locked and stock as well.
The US versions will be unlockable? What's your source on that? Word has been they will continue to lock all North American Snapdragons as has been their recent policy. The international on the other hand has remained unlockable and the conventional wisdom is it will remain so for the time being.
Where did you buy?
For the US version, I was looking at threads here, but admit did not go into a lot of detail in them. I bought directly from Samsung. I dislike carphone warehouse I had a pre-order for an HTC 10 with them, decided to cancel. What they didn't tell me at time of canceling was rather than getting automatically re-funded I got credit instead. I was just inside the window to get the money charged back to my account.
Also decided to go for the orchid grey as it looked amazing as well!
I'll wait three months or four. Then i might get the S8!
I was told by many stores that you can test the S8 and S8+ yourself beginning tomorrow 31.03.2017.
Sadly no promotions for us in Europe at all. Asked many stores across Germany, Switzerland, Austria as well as UK.

Ordered both from Samsung shop UK (wasn't sure what size I wanted) but noticed CPW in the uk were offering a free Bluetooth speaker with pre orders (Don't need one but it's free, and more than samsung are offering)
So decided to cancel both my samsung pre orders and just ordered the S8 from CPW with free gift.

I have gone for the S8+ through O2 and you get a free speaker with them. Went into their store today and had a play on the S8 and S8+. Glad I have gone for the latter as it isn't as big as I feared. The size is actually really nice and both models look even more stunning in person.

I ordered mine with CPW with a free Samsung level slim speaker promo. Not expecting anything else like the BAR headset honestly. The headphones are '99$' ones apparently which i guess is nice. I am Just excited for the phone!
