Buying US version for use in UK - Asus ZenFone 4 Max Questions & Answers

Hi, as far as I can tell this is the same phone
https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-ZenFo...UTF8&qid=1510916677&sr=8-1&keywords=zenfone+4
https://www.amazon.com/ZenFone-5-5-...0753NDNBV/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
But £100 price difference, if I buy from Amazon.com will it work in the UK (on the 3 network), I really can't see why there is such a discrepancy in price.

[Q] Availability in Greece at a reasonable price

Having read up and deciding this is the bad boy I want to purchase I have been looking around for a retailer in Greece.
I have only found one online retailer selling this at 699 euros.
Anyone know if there is a place selling it for its proper price???
Closest place is ebay, unless you find it at a retailer. But then you've got international shipping.
I would wait for a month or so, it'll probably become available on more retailers and the price should decrease as well.
Can't you buy from Amazon.co.uk? The tablet is cheaper there than announced price in my country (Poland) and shipping is free to some countries.

930F where to buy

I am wanting to buy an exynos version for use on AT&T. Reviews of sellers on ebay / amazon show happy customers and at the same time many complaints (no phone received, broken phones, etc). Any recommendations on trustable vendors? Anyone here looking to sell their 930F?

Just been looking at this. Thinking whether to take the plunge on this one and sell my LG V30
I am from the Netherlands and I bought one in October. I really like the form factor. size of an iPhone 6 and screensize of a iPhone plus.
2 issues. bad reception. so only buy the phone if you have good reception with your current phone at your house or work.
camera is poor. you need to root it for Google camera, which makes the camera ok-ish.
updates are great. phone is fast! like it a lot!
Essential Phone is now available to purchase directly in the UK now via Essential website.

Just ordered The V50 dual screen from ee uk.

Antonie knows what model is it? Friday Will have it. Anny issues with ee UK? I live in another country and Will use it with Orange. Paid full unlocked without plan. Almost 1100£ pounds... Does anyone know if it is korean or european version?
How did you buy the ee version I thought it was only sold on contract?
It's the single sim version. No Carrie blot, only my EE app which can be uninstalled.
Should come with the dual screen as my version did.
I'm also looking to buy it outright, but haven't found a way yet.

I live in Romania but I have a friend with business contract with EE. He told me that can help buy it and he keeps the plan. He told me 1100 pounds ... What do you think about this deal?

If you are buying it from EE then it will be the European model with the Dual Screen. £1100 is a lot of money. The Korean version is £613 and I'm tempted by this but it won't be covered by LG UK warranty whereas your V50 from EE is covered within Europe.
I agree it's too much money. I want to keep it but only SIM only. I asked EE if I could buy it they said I have to buy out my contract.
I'll try again as if I return the phone me they will lose money on selling as a refurbished handset.
Hello, guys! What a thriller movie with this v50!
I ditched the ee uk version and bought from ebay - switzerland seller - the korean version. After payment i noticed the seller is from Hong Kong. I will inspect the phone carefully, and if is legit I'll keep it. I was promised 1 year warranty and invoce - it was paid from my company bank account. Waiting for it 2-8 days seems like living in inferno. Paid 840 USD - 747 euro to seller, free shipping to romania. I'll pay 19% VAT customs taxes so a total of 888 euro. No dual screen but thats fine...
The european version has bootloader unlockable, do you know if the korean version has also?
I was looking also on ee uk website and the real price would be from 1700£ pounds in 2 years with best plan, but is sim locked until you pay full contract. Impossible the price. Yes, I admit you have the plan, but here in Romania with 15 euro a month I have a better plan from Orange. 65 GB in 4G+, 5 GB in roaming, speeds are 130mbps, unlimited sms, calls, unlimited youtube, Facebook, instagram etc
I'm glad,
You can find the dual screen on eBay so when your ready to purchase just look there.
Hope you like the phone. I certainly do, still debating in keeping it but it's a great phone. Really like the dual screen as that's one of the reason why I like this so much.

For me, the LG V50 5G is the best phone of 2019 with the best cameras/camera software, nice design on the back/less on the front, best audio quality (v50 standard DAC destroys by a mile other phones dacs, QUAD - DAC is light years ahead, best AMP for headphones, 50 Ohm impedance trick, DTSX, LDAC), best fit for my Tidal Master account, best fit for my sony wh1000m3 headphones, snapdragon 855 mobile platform with 5G modem (IMO sd855 destroys a12 bionic or kirin or exynos), USB C 3.1 with 5gbps speed and HDMI output with power delivery, otg support and probably better display than samsungs s10 line. Indeed I miss G7-G8 form factor, but the v50 is in another league of quality. These are just a few of my reasons... You should KEEP IT!
It might be possible to not pay taxes as the phone was shipped from Manchester - UK. Just tracked it via DHL Express ... I called them and they told me I dont need to pay taxes as it is fro the EU. Now it just remains to verify it is original LG V50! Fingers crossed! :victory:

Where To Buy

Good Afternoon,
Although it might seem strange, I'd like to replace my Zenfone 6 with another brand new Zenfone 6. On Amazon only one seller carries them, and at a whopping $1000+ price tag! eBay has a few, but they seem to all be the Taiwan model.
Does anyone know where they can be found, brand new, of the international or north american variants at a reasonable price?
Thanks!
