That price is so wrong. It should be no more than 400€.

Most of the big player's getting greedy now.
Honor 8 I felt should of been max £280 and £310/£320 max for the 64GB version... Mind you the Honor 6 Plus is still going for a high price £299 two years plus down the line since it's release.

Agreed. Too darn close to other higher spec phones.
They're opening space for other Chinese brands to offer better value.

Had an email from Honor UK today which stated that the Honor 8 Premium most likely will not be sold in the UK...
Oh well looks like Amsterdam here l come... (I live there from time to time)
I think it's time maybe to even look other brands...

64gb vs 32gb only difference.

I only saw the storage size as difference.

The best way: wait for an invite and purchase directly from OnePlus.

I go to london the 11 of august...
I have an oneplus one 16 gb,
I want to change for galaxy S5, nexus 5 or iPhone 5S.
If you like send me an private messge.
Thanks
To my knowledge all 16GB phones are China-edition and thus
a) missing international LTE bands
b) come with a chinese OS (ColorOS) instead of CM
Afaik all early contest winners who won the 16GB edition were upgraded to white 64GB editions.

Your knowledge is wrong.
1. The LTE works fine in Europe for the chinese version.
2. You can flash CM11S stock image.
3. There are 16GB international phones for sure.
I bought mine from lenteen.fr , paid via paypal, received 1 week later
But now they ship from EU (mine was shipped from china) and it should take around 48h
If your buying on Gumtree then make sure you pick it up as there are a lot of paypal scammers on there.
I'm selling one of mine on there at the moment and I have had a few people asking if I would post and take paypal even though I offered to deliver(I travel a lot with work) so you just know they would make a paypal claim as soon as they get the phone.
Likewise if your buying on there you get a lot of scammers looking to pull a fast one.
If you are buying a sealed in box phone then you can't check for the yellow screen until you pay for it.

That's a dangerous statement as neither chinese nor international OnePlus work as expected across all of Europe due to the missing LTE band 20.
Furthermore the chinese 1+ is missing LTE bands 4/17/38/40 which equals to 43% of all LTE bands missing. True it will work in most parts of Europe where the international one is working due to Europe's huge reliance on LTE bands 3/7/20.
Additionally the chinese version is missing 3G/HSPA band 4
Conclusion: my point still stands that the chinese version is NOT the same as the intl. connectivity-wise.

I specifically said "comes with", not that CM11S cannot be flashed anyway. Even if it is not very likely, they could break CM11S official updates based on IMEI, serial or other factors if you are not entitled to it. You would still have the "normal" CM11 though.

They changed production schedule way before mass-producing the device - only a few international devices were shipped with 16GB to journalists and maybe very early contest winners. Fact is that you could NEVER buy the 16GB intl edition.
Just bought mine off Gumtree from a local guy who had pre-ordered but bought an HTC M8 in the meantime.
£320 for a SandStone Black 64GB, brand new and unopened - absolute bargain
Hi there. Im from Barcelona, Spain, and I bought my Oneplus One from myefox.es. I bought the white 64GB one, with DHL shipping service (was here in 6 days) and it costed me 313€ total price (around 270 pounds, guessing) Yes, it is the chinese version, but it comes with CM11S installed, unlocked bootloader, stock recovery.
Works perfect, no problem with reception, calls, signal... not eiter in spain nor uk, as I travel to Glasgow quite often so, so far, so great!
I think it is a great deal, so you might want to go and check the website, I think they have one in english too, but this is the one that I bought it from.
Regards to all XDA community,
Paco.

Sorry, you're right. No invites for 16gb phones now..
As for CM, since they posted a ROM on their website, it's very unlikely they would ever start doing something you mentioned to the CN versions... Even if the 1% chance came to be, you can always get the latest OTA zip on xda
Gumtree probably best place like I said just meet them at there house or yours exchange details if you feel need. There some good deals ATM

That was not properly shipped. As of the situation in our store, we attach an invoice statement along with the shipment. For smartphones, DHL will clear the custom using the prepared statement and we hear no delay/VAT ever, except for one country that the custom stops every single EXPRESS shipment, per law of that country.
Just some hints for your future online purchase.
I just saw this phone and was taken by the design and size of the phone. Specs aren't quite note 4 or nexus 6 but sure looks better. I bought oppo find 7 but after few weeks was quite dissapointed due to touch issues poor ui and camera, I don't fancy making the same mistake.
I'm in the uk where is the best place to buy and will it work on ee 4g? It's very important for me to have 4g.
Thanks

I am thinkingbof swapping my z2 for the AM7 also. Only thing holding me back is I am worried about camera?? How are you finding the video recording and stills inside and low light? I also created another thread for this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2933881
Would really appreciate your comments.
I received my Mate 7 yesterday - got shipped on Friday from HK so came very quickly.
I wasn't charged any tax at all as it was marked as 'gift' when shipped; which was very nice!
It is though the MT7-L09 model, so it doesn't support some of the 4G bands over here. Fortunately I'm switching networks soon, anyway, to one that is supported
I'm currently on O2 and the LTE doesn't work, but it works on EE reportedly.
Also as a point, the model number I have isn't listed on the Huawei bootloader unlock site so I'm currently awaiting more info to unlock and root my device

Nice. I purchased the 16gb European model from amazon.fr in the end £360ish. What phone did you come from and what are your initial impressions especially camera
I had a nexus 4 previously (bit old) so was a bit of a step up... much better screen and etc.
I've yet to play with the camera really, but it's supposedly better than the one I had before. Will have to have a play

Mate 9 Pro-> Available at all? in U.S.?

The Porsche Design is incredibly expensive. But they have announced a Mate 9 Pro, and is on their web site here. But no information on versions, or places to purchase.
Google search not turning anything up either.
Seems like this time of year would be good time to get this stuff out there and available.

It's only a limited release so far.
It's available in China, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
Your only way of getting it would probably be to import a Chinese version. I've yet to see a Nordic shop ship internationally even though it would probably be preferable (albeit more expensive) to get one from a Nordic country.
Other than that, you can only cross your fingers and hope it sees a wider release. I'm guessing they're testing to see the reception of a curved amoled display for future devices.
Thanks
Sweden and most of the others appears to be pre order from 20th.
i've found a couple of shops in sweden that will ship to other countries when they do have stock...
If you find out where the Pro is available for purchase online, please post.
Yeah, a lot of people like me have interest on this Model.
Sure. Likewise, of course.
Misco in sweden will post overseas but they only taking pre orders and are not guaranteeing it'll be instock by 20th. They said telcos will get them first so maybe try them....

Yup. It sure is. Although it is not available from a supplier in the U.S.
One of my concerns about purchasing a phone that would not be from a vendor in the U.S. is support. Even if the support is 'good', timing for handling would be an issue, I presume. Maybe my concern is not valid...I don't know.
The other thing for me is if I purchase a phone (especially one in that price range) I want to be able to evaluate it for at least a couple weeks and return it if it's not for me for whatever reason. The Oneplus 3 has a 14 day policy, and the Axon 7 has 30 days.
I talked to Huawei customer support today inquiring about the Mate 9 Pro because I have been wanting to get one but was told that they do not recommend buying it from 3rd party vendors or sellers and there is no warranty for the international version of the phone if you use it in the U.S.
Well, that ended my hopes of getting an expensive unlocked phone. Might as well wait for the upcoming phones...

Some re-sellers offer warranty support.
I wouldn't worry about it... I've never had to use warranty service for any of my smartphones. I've been searching but can't find any places selling this phone in silver/gray at a decent price... most are $1,000+. I already got burned when I bought my international Mate 9 (lost $200 when I sold it after the unexpected U.S. release).

Very valid. I bought a Mate 9 Pro in the USA via a seller on ebay. The sellers post just said huawei has 12 month warranty. Which is true. Just incomplete
After i received the device, i could figure out:
Huawei does not seem to have global warranty support == you need to send in the device for any form of repairs to the country where it is originally from.
My device seems to be from Taiwan, but that is just conjecture by me because the packaging has a URL from Taiwan on it. Alas, the Taiwanese Huawei site is one of the few that does not have online warranty check and when i sent an email to them from the webpage to inquire about my warranty status, i never got a reply. Maybe they can not or do not want to talk english. Or deal with overseas sold units customers.
Aka: i guess i am pretty much out of luck wrt. warranty unless i learn chinese and jump into a plane to taipeh. Which could be fun . But i guessed something like that to be the situation before i bought the phone, so no big surprise.
i got my mate 9 pro from ebay too. and it's also from taiwan. it's the gray one and it's only $878 + intl express shipping. i think it's the cheapest gray mate 9 pro coz some sellers from aliexpress sells it for even more than $1000 coz it's very rare. and they are selling the chinese version too. mine's international, i got it after 5 days here in new zealand via dhl. didn't have pay any import dutiesas well. the seller only sold 4 of these and i was one of the luckiest to grab the sale. here's the link:

That is a great price! Gray does seem to cost a lot more because it's unavailable mostly... there's a AL00 (China) model open box on eBay, but I'm afraid of dealing with annoyances from buying a Chinese model.
I've just ordered the gold via Amazon Prime for $889. At least that way I actually CAN easily return the phone and get my money back if I don't like it... or if Huawei does a release in the U.S. soon I won't get screwed.

I think I might have seen the same listing on Amazon as you for the gold one. But I got my gold model m9pro for $773 with free shipping (no tax) on ebay. it was a great deal and have been loving the phone. I got the C636 build which I believe is the European version but could be wrong.

I just checked your link, Porsche was there, no Pro. One said it was a Pro, and I could be wrong, but my understanding is that the Pro is 6GB of memory, and the one listed said 4 GB.

Pre-ordered Thread

Hey guys,
Just pre-ordered mine in the UK. Wondering who else has ordered and what specifically brought you to this phone?
I also pulled the trigger on an unlocked P20 Pro from Clove UK, only to quickly cancel my preorder. The issue for me is whether the unlocked UK variant will support T-Mobile's VOLTE in North America. Once I confirm this, I'll go ahead and buy the phone.
I want to - but I haven't seen the gradient color for PO anywhere. Have you all?

Is this dual sim you know, if yes I'm all over it.... Ta!
For UK guys and gals, I don't know that clove will get you the Bose headphones on pre order. I couldn't see it on the clove website anyway. I've ordered mine from Carphone Warehouse for that reason.
I couldn't see if it was duel aim or single SIM if I'm honest.
Edit: whilst it doesn't say if it's the duel SIM variant on Carphone Warehouse, it does say there is an SD card slot which I believe is only on the duel SIM variant as a hybrid duel SIM. Alternatively you could order from elsewhere and get the duel SIM variant?

Too bad Carphone doesn't ship to the US
Yeah I would have preferred the twilight version. It is available on the Huawei website but they are asking another £50 for it. Unless I could find it else where at £799 with the Bose headphones then I'm going to stick with black...

Do we know if the single SIM variant will have the ability for SD cards? If not, I guess the Carphone Warehouse site is incorrect.
It is showing that this phone is running on Android 8.0 rather than 8.1 so it's already got something else wrong...

I am waiting for it to launch in India
I'm new to the Huawei scene, how are they will releasing kernel sources in a timely manner and are there many Devs of on previous Huawei devices (to get a feel of what development might be like). I guess treble will improve things as well in that area.

just pre-ordered (netherlands)
Was ready to pull the trigger on a mate 10 pro, but this came out. Why? I really want the monochrome camera, and this has _more camera_... Also - black. That blue/purple isn't available, otherwise I'd have ordered it.
As rav101 said I’m new to Huawei I’ve been with HTC seemingly since time began. A strong Dev community is a big plus sell for me.
I’d have dismissed the P20 Pro due to lack of headphone jack and looked at the Samsung S9 or wait to see what
One Plus 6 has to offer but the free Bose headphone’s for pre-orders cancels out my lack of jack phobia as they are the best wireless noise cancelling headphones around. Cetainly sweetens the deal.
I’m looking at pre-ordering via mobiles.co.uk as they seem to offer the best contract deals: 02 – 15GB, £38 a month and £49 for phone.
For those looking to pre-order, use on of these approved retailers for the free headphones!: https://huaweipromo.co.uk/gb/en/pages/p20bose/qualifying-retailers

Includes the headphones as well and works out less than RRP if cashbacks pay but also includes a 4GB/24 month contract with Vodafone. Total price at £750 including contract after cashback, £792 if it doesn't pay out.
£240 upfront and then £23 a month.

As rav101 said I’m new to Huawei I’ve been with HTC seemingly since time began. A strong Dev community is a big plus sell for me.
I’d have dismissed the P20 Pro due to lack of headphone jack and looked at the Samsung S9 or wait to see what
One Plus 6 has to offer but the free Bose headphone’s for pre-orders cancels out my lack of jack phobia as they are the best wireless noise cancelling headphones around. Cetainly sweetens the deal.
I’m looking at pre-ordering via mobiles.co.uk as they seem to offer the best contract deals: 02 – 15GB, £38 a month and £49 for phone.

I didn't realise very.co.uk was included. Through my work I think I can get 7% discount bringing the price down to £743 and still get the free headphones. Result for a phone only price without any contract!

To clarify , none of the models have support for micro sd cards. None. Unfortunately, many website and retailers have incorrect info. You either buy a single Nano sim or dual nano sim version.
In the UK, you can pre order a dual sim version from Three UK. As far as I know , they nabbed an exclusive on this.

You won't find those savings on sites selling to the West until it's been available for a while. Wait 4-6 weeks and you'll see significantly lower prices.
Unless my Google-fu sucks, there's no way of ordering from Vmall.com (CN) and having it either sent directly or forwarded to other countries.
You are right, the price could only be found on Chinese website. Everyone else I have seen added 200 USD on the Chinese MSRP. And they won't directly ship to overseas, U.S. at least. Same for Huawei shop on Tmall.com. I ordered one yesterday, successfully paid for the order, and then was asked to cancel the order or change the address to one in China.

Could try Tiptrans. I know some people who've had good results with them, though I've never used them myself.
If you want a Mate 20X early, getting one through them via Vmall might be the best option.
