Is buying this phone from aliexpress reliable ?, is there any warranty ? - ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers

hey guys, i was thinking on buying the Zenfone 6 from aliexpress, has anyone here bought it there ? (there is only one seller selling it -Asus zen store-), my main concern is with warranty (after seeing reports here of quality control issues), how reliable is aliexpress on that regard?
OBS: im not buying from gearbest or bangood because i found their shipping to my country to be quite high in comparison to aliexpress, but if u guys think its worth it i could reconsider and buy from bangood

[Q] Where to buy cheaply HTC 7 Pro from?

Hi guys, I am from Bulgaria and I want to buy HTC 7 Pro. Here this phone is quite expensive so I want to find it somewhere cheaper. Please tell me some resplectable online resellers that have cheap offers for this phone and, of course, they deliver to Bulgaria.
Thanks.
P.S. The device must be new, unused, with warranty of course.
Is there anywhere a MediaMarkt in the near of you, i bought mine in Germany for 229€ in MM. and that's a really good price.
Try Amazon. They must have some stock that they're trying to get rid of or sth cause I got mine for £219 two weeks ago. I couldn't find a better deal even on eBay!
They are back up to around £400 at most places

[Q] Best Place for Buyer in the Us to Buy Unlocked Phones?

How's everybody doing?
I'm looking to order an unlocked Z1 Compact either tonight or tomorrow and am wondering the best and most reliable sites to purchase from?
Also, I imagine I lose the Sony warranty with an unlocked Compact because it's not available in the US market right?
Is it a wise idea to buy a SquareSoft 2 year warranty from Ebay or Amazon? I've been trying to research them and am getting mixed results including a lot of complaints of them scamming and semi-scamming on claim attempts, but often the bad reviews and experiences are the loudest and most glaring.
Anybody have experience with any of the following re-sellers?
Negri Electronics
Wireless Everything(through Amazon)
Cells4U
Techno Trading House(through Ebay)
Never-MSRP(through Ebay)
Open to other suggestions of well of course, but I really need to get this in by say Monday, so not looking for any super long wait international shippers unless the price and reliability of the seller was superb, but even then any issues probably mean international return shipping on my dime so I'm a little sketchy on those options.
Sony won't sell them direct to US customers...
Thanks in advance guys, really excited to get this phone!

Xiaomi official point of view regarding spare parts

I'm an owner of a Xiaomi Mi 4C and I have a problem with my display (got some nasty spots from heating probably) and I send an email to Xiaomi EU email adress asking them where from I can buy an original display for it. After more than a month with no answer from them, I forwarded the email to another Xiaomi support email adress and finally I have the answer here... This is the reason why this phone will be my last phone ever bought from a chinese manufacturer...

i think it is pretty obvious that when you buy a phone from a reseller, and from outside your country, and also being that country China, it is obvious that you totally risk the warranty for getting a cheaper phone....
Also, if you didn't know, Xiaomi don't sell Mi4C outside of china, so for them you are not a client
Yup - when buying Chinese electronics outside of the supported market, there are risks. Those risks are greatly offset by the price.
If you still need a display, GearBest has been advertising OEM replacement assemblies for about 35- 40 bucks.
Please...

Boys and gurls,
I`m aware of everything you said up and I agree with that. But my main problem is that I just asked them to point me an ONLINE original spare parts seller so I can buy one ORIGINAL display. Thats all i asked from them. So noone from online stores are selling originals by their concept.

obviously xiaomi wont tell you to buy to a reseller, the same way samsung wont tell you to buy a replacement of battery or screen in aliexpress...
they don't sell officially spare parts, so the answer will be no or will be take the phone to our official SAT

Gearbest anyone?

Hi everyone! I've been interested in getting a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, or some other kind of smartphone in that price range. The thing is I have to order from either AliExpress or some other chinese seller, and I'm not sure which to go with. A couple of concerns I have when choosing a vender is shipping times to Canada, as well as I have no clue how to spot a reputable seller. So I thought I'd ask here. Have any of you had any experience with buying a from Gearbest or one of online shops that you could reccomend for fast delivery? I've seen Gearbest mentioned a lot in reviews, but I'm just not sure.
Thank you.

Usually, Chinese sellers are selling cloned(fake) devices. If you want the device, get it from the manufacturer directly if you can or look on eBay and find someone selling the device that also has 95% or better rating and also few negative feedbacks, if you choose wisely then you should find a reputable seller. You can also try looking on the Swappa website.

Something doesn't seem right. The sellers' ratings leave much to be desired if they have any at all. This is not being sold by Amazon but by private sellers. Perhaps you'd be better off going to Swappa or even looking at some of the latest sales figures. Lowest there is about $600. If it's too good to be true then ... well you know the rest.
Nope its fake... So id stay away x
Agreed, the ratings of sellers isn't good and some of them their accounts have recently launched.
Great many thanks guys,
Is there any other websites selling and providing international shipping other than Swapa
eBay (Germany or UK where Pixel is officially sold as well) might be your best bet, though the shipping depends on the seller. Just stay away from Pixels locked to EE, you can't get past that. Otherwise you can evaluate the seller through their feedback score and eBay has its own Money Back guarantee so your investment is protected better that way.
