I am coming to India for one month holidays, I would like to buy onuplus 6 from India use it for one month and bring back to Ireland and use it in Ireland with Irish sim. (there is a price difference of €90 including accessory). Can anyone advise me whether it is a good idea or better to buy from Ireland? Is any quality deference of Indian and Eu version? thanks
Only downside that i can think of is if you want want to claim warranty you will probably have to send it Indian customer support. If you friends in India, you can send it to them, they can claim warranty and send it back to you

Hi thanks for the reply, I check with the customer support they said if purchased online (oneplus) directly international warranty. My only concern about product quality (most companies produce better quality components to EU).

I am thinking about buying a N8013 but if I do buy a 8000 for the 3g capability, where is a good place to get one from.
Anyone have a favorite supporting store that they like?
Thanks

India it's n8000.
Yes you can order it from India but doubt any of the sites ship overseas
New Egg has them
I am in the USA.
Not seeing the 8k on Newegg, just the 8013.

Do not think 8k is launched in USA you only have the wifi version over there you will need to import it
I'd suggest getting it from Handtec or Clove in the UK. That's where I get most of my imported devices from. I got my N8000 from Negri because there wasn't a release date in the UK yet and it has a Brazil/Trinidad CSC and hasn't been updated from the shipping s/w. EU devices get much more frequent updates and have had as many as three compared to my none. It's 405 GBP ($652) all-in delivered overnight from Handtec. Since you're buying it from an authorized dealer in its country of intended sale the 2-year Samsung warranty will be preserved. But you'll have to send it to the UK at your own expense if it needs repair. If you buy it from Negri or Expansys-USA you'll have to send it to them for repair and they'll send it to one of their oversees affiliates who will have it repaired on your behalf.

Any unlocked Samsung mobile device that's sold in the U.S. is considered grey market and has no warranty because it's not intended to be sold here and can't be by an authorized reseller. Buying a Samsung device outside its intended country of sale and/or from a non-authorized reseller (CL/eBay/Amazon) means Samsung won't honor the warranty. Negri and Expansys-USA get around it by shipping their U.S. customer's devices that need repair to overseas affiliates.
This is what the link you posted says about warranty. I'm guessing the 90 days means NewEgg (not Samsung) will exchange it if it's becomes defective during that time.
Limited Warranty period (parts): 90 days
Limited Warranty period (labor): 90 days

Samsung's warranty terms vary by country. Generally they are more concerned that it was purchased from an authorized reseller. If someone buys a Samsung product to give as a gift for example it would be silly for them to say the warranty only applies to the gift giver and not the recipient. If who you are buying it from can provide you with the original receipt and if they bought it from an authorized reseller you should be fine. If you can't get a receipt and/or it wasn't purchased from an authorized reseller you'll definitely have a problem should it need repair under warranty.

Thank you for your reply.
Have preordered Moto G 16GB version from amazon.uk and still waiting for it to deliver.
But would like to know if Moto G does have international warranty? I live in Sweden, so can I send it to Moto service center here in Sweden instead back to amazon uk for phone repairs within warranty issues?

As I'm in Estonia, I did ask also about warranty from Amazon, they replied:

The one year Manufacturers Warranty is in addition to your rights as an EU Consumer, which is a 2 year Statutory Warranty......
this EU Directive has been transposed into law in all EU countries, or already existed in effect in some.
In the UK, there is a six year warranty, under their Sale of Goods Act, which they claim is superior to the EU minimum protection you have mentioned.
It is good to know that Apple had to change the wording of their International Warranty in all EU countries in the past year, so as to comply with EU Consumer Protection Directives/Law....
If you purchased online from another EU country, you also have additional protection and rights under EU Law.
Check out the European Consumer Rights Site for your country.

I just want to know if I can send here in Sweden for repairs and dont need send it back to amazon.uk for repairs. Not how long EU warranty it have.
Someone got a reply from Motorolas, that said since Moto G dont sell here in Sweden and need to send it back to amazon.uk for warranty repairs.
But if I look at Moto websites about Moto G warranty, Sweden is listed under warranty and there is also a Swedish manual. In the Swedish manual, it say under Service and repairs it says to contach Swedish Moto support center. For repairs to send it to Swedens Moto service center partner. So im abit confused, who do I send it back for repairs? Amazon.uk or Moto Sweden service partner center?

Ask from Motorola, but I'm quite sure, that You must send it to Amazon.

You bought from Amazon, not Moto Sweden.
Amazon is the retailer you have a contract of sale with. Consumer law in the EU is clear on this.
If you bought in a local store on your High Street, where would you go??
AFAIK, Amazon pays postage for returns in the event of faulty goods.
If you don't want info given, others might find it useful, it is a "public" forum.

I think I've heard in some review on YouTube that you can take any moto g with European warranty to any local Motorola service center. You should call a Motorola center and ask them directly.

As you are using Internet to ask a question here, use it the same way and search for service center in google, yahoo or whatever search engine you prefer.
The search result may end up giving a contact number and/or email address.
Hi!
Lets say I buy an international version of the S6 (SM920F) for example from the UK
How would the warranty play out if something were to malfunction ?
Would I have to return it to the seller (in the UK) for warranty repair/replacement, or can I turn it in to some kind of samsung repair center here in the US ?
Any of you guys have experience with something like this ?
I'm not interested in the Carrier bloated S6 versions
Thanks guys
Wondering the same. Figured I'd comment to bump. Not getting any clear, concise info from Google.

Well, I bought the Note 2 from Ebay when it came out and I ended up having some issues with it... The company I was working with was "BREED" and they were not the best but I did ended up getting the issue resolved. First you want to make sure that the seller is even going to issue you a warranty and stand by it, because technically it was voided as soon as it was delivered in the US. There are some companies that will facilitate the transportation so that it can get sent to them, and then Samsung, wherever they may be (Mine was from Spain). The problem there is that you will be without a phone so as long as you don't care and have another phone then you are golden! Personally, I would get a 3rd party warranty and be done with it! No worries and no problems if something does end up happening... :good: BTW: I have used Squaretrade for several warranties and my daughter has broken 2 different iPads!! All they do is make you send them your original receipt and if they can't fix the damage or problem then they cut you a check, and can even throw it in your PayPal account 4 you! The last claim was about 6 months ago and they cut me an $800 check within 5 business days! Top notch IMO!
Hello,
I'm looking at buying the OnePlus 7 Pro 8GB 256GB but where's best to buy it from in the UK?
- Directly from OnePlus UK (heard their aftercare support isn't that great?)
- Amazon UK (assuming this is from OnePlus themselves and not third party, Amazon's aftercare is good)
- John Lewis Retail (heard this is best to buy from in the UK, due to aftercare)
What do you recommend? For aftercare, support, and possible returns policy if I don't like it?
Thanks!

John Lewis is the best to buy from, Amazon customer service can be a nightmare sometimes, OnePlus customer service may as well not exist.. I contacted them twice both times useless, 1st for a RMA and 2nd for missing referral points said they'd get a higherup to contact me never happened.
Both Amazon and OnePlus you'll need to mail it back for a return. Least with John Lewis can return it to local store no problem.

Thanks for the helpful advice! I was stuck between the three.
With OnePlus I can get a discount of 5% off the handset (student), with Amazon I can split the payment of the phone for 5 monthly payments of £139.80 which makes it more affordable until I sell my iPhone but with John Lewis I get non of that instead you get quality customer service and aftercare but for full price.
