I bought the poco x3 from aliexpress oct 13th. On the tracking ,it shows the phone left china on the 17th via airplane. But then there is no new updates. I would like to know how long people had to wait before getting their phone in usa from china warehouse through regular aliexpress mail.
It takes 5 weeks for me from China to France, i bought it 172€
You could have chosen to send from France or Spain, got mine in less then a week from Spain. Only shipping can be a little more expensive, but it's faster.
That's what i did, order from spain Warehouse but i still had to wait 5 weeks
I had no choice. Only chinese warehouse was option. So i guess i would have to wait a minimum of 5 week. Maybe even 3 months.

I ordered mine from banggood.com. It took from the night of Nov. 03 to the afternoonof Nov. 17. 2 weeks exactly via Canada Direct Mail.
No extra cost. I used a link I found in RedFlagDeals (a canadian deals site). Americans might have similar luck.
GREECE it came after 5 weeks with dhl courier. 2 days after i did dispute.
so my phone came in just under 4 weeks , from china to atlanta , georgia address. I am very satisfied with the phone. i took out all the junk apps and stopped the graphic transitions. now my phone is super fast.

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
Has this device got a planned UK release date at all? I cant find any info about when I would be able to walk into a brick and mortar shop and pick one up. It was announced 2-3 months ago, reviewed a month ago and still nothing. Its ridiculous. Same with the htc desire 820. Its like they are phantom phones. No info on expansys, cw or simplyelectronics websites. All a bit worrying.
Anyone know anything about a UK release?

Dude that is crazy. I am using the European model with 2gb and came from a z2 with 3gb and this is faster. The chinese model is problematic for UK users but if you prefer more numbers then pay extra. I paid £355 for mine and its best phone to date. I have owned loads or I would not be on xda
32gb on ebay for £419.99
guys in UK, if you want the 32gb, there is some from HongKong selling 5 on eBay
£419.99 for 1

Everybody know when Zen 3 Ultra release?
Asus hasn't provided information regarding the availablity, but you could expect it to be available in Q3.
At the website Tweakers they talk about august, september. One thing i like with Samsung is that afther a presentation, the phone is some weeks later in the stores. I want a Zen 3 Ultra now!!!
If the unit comes in August or September , it should identify in which cases Asus has just cut back .

http://tweakers.net/reviews/4617/2/...nig-geld-de-zenfone-3-en-zenfone-3-ultra.html
I want this phone too, but i'm worried about band comparability with t-mobile. Band 12 specifically, looking at this and the zte axon 7.
Asia first on 12 july :s
http://m.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_...ultra_to_go_on_sale_next_month-news-19107.php
From the asus website specifications there looks to be a CN and WW version with different frequency bands.
I wonder if the 12th July date is just for a CN/TW version and the WW version will be later on?
This looks like the phone for me. I had no problem with the size of my 7" Huawei X1 but software was terrible and reception flaky, my Sony UltraZ 6.4" has been fine but after using a 7" screen everything else seems too small. Hope it hits the Australian market soon.
6.8-inch ZenFone 3 Ultra will be released on July 27.
Asus plans to start with shipments of the ZoneFone 3 model to Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, and by August will ship all models to the three markets as well as to Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand.
Shipment will later be expanded to Japan, Italy and the United States.

When you say "this seller" it'd help if you provided a link, so people could know what you're talking about... If you mean Kiletrading seller - his version is of no use to me, or anyone in USA - doesn't support US LTE bands. I need bands 2,4,12 for T-Mobile - all missing.

You can order the 3GB/32GB version now, dispatch: ships between Aug 18 - Aug 20 I wait for 4GB/64GB, but still in arrival notice
I've just got mine yesterday in Malaysia. The phone is a perfect replacement for my Sony Xperia Z Ultra, as they share similar dimensions and weights, yet the screen is much larger and the speaker sounds awesome!
Finally one site that ships internationally has Ultras on sale. DealExtreme, about $640, all three colors, only 4GB/64GB version. I think it's the international/non-Chinese version. For mysterious reasons, the gray color is more expensive than other two.
Note that you might not be able to combine your phone order with any other article because they seem to keep stuff in various warehouses and can't collect it into a single shipment. You can only combine Ultra with stuff that has their internal code starting with 852. So far they seem not to have any additional matching items like cases or screen protectors.

Seems like I spoke to soon, they have just put the phone for sale on their site, but one cannot actually buy it. They've cancelled my order without explanation.
I didn't actually find out about this until I was doing some casual googling, as carphone warehouse gave me no extra info with my contract, but if you purchase a V20 before February 6th, you can get a free Honor Magic smart watch. Info is all here https://huawei-redemptions.co.uk/honorview20promo/ (yes, it's a legit website, I phoned up carphone warehouse today to confirm. )
You need to have purchased from any of these shops according to their Terms of Service page:
O2
Carphone Warehouse

Currys PC World
Very

Has anybody managed to claim this yet?
The terms and conditions state you have to wait 14 days, I'm curious if anybody successfully did this before the 14 day period though, its annoys me, as there was no mention of having to wait when I purchased the View 20.
14 days is the cooling off period. Its to stop you claiming the watch then sending your phone back.

I understand the principle behind it, but what I really want to know if anybody has successfully claimed it sooner.
But on your point, whilst the idea is common sense, they've missed the fact that a lot of UK online retailers offer a 30 day money back guarantee.
Amazon.co.uk are denying all knowledge of this promotion. I'm fuming!
There are 20 retailers on the approved list, Amazon included. What has probably happened is now that the promotion has ended, the customer service agent can't see the original offer that you spoke to. I will be applying for my free watch in a few days time and dont expect an issue.
Here's the link to the list. https://huawei-redemptions.co.uk/honorview20promo/tandcs.php

Same. I got my view 20 two days after the promotion ended.
I ordered my 4 XL the moment they went up on the store on the 15th. Credit card was charged immediately. Got an email on the 21st that my phone was "dispatched" and it said it was expected to arrive by the 24th. This lines up with Canada Post's Expedited Parcel delivery standard.
However, even as of the evening of the 24th, the tracking information shows that Canada Post hasn't even received the phone from Google yet. If I knew it was going to be this slow, I would have just waited until the 24th and walked into any store and bought it there instead. Lesson learned.
Anyone else in the same situation? Or did anybody in Canada get theirs from the Google Store already?

Thanks for the replies, everyone!
I had my order completed and my credit card charged literally 30 seconds after the Pixel 4/XL went up for sale, yet people who ordered later already have theirs. I guess the moral of the story is that the Google Store has no consistency.
Did the phone ship via Canada Post for everyone? Perhaps they used different couriers for different regions. I would have been willing to pay for expedited shipping but there was no such option. It's strange since people ordering from the US Google Store had expediting shipping options.
I got mine today. Bought it on the pre-order and it arrived today via Canada Post.
I'm in Vancouver BC.

Canada Post came and went this morning, no delivery. Tracking status hasn't changed, still hasn't been picked up from the warehouse.
Clearly somebody messed up. With a purchase of this price, you would think that more care would be taken to ensure that it is shipped out on time and not left sitting in some warehouse for days or potentially weeks.
Well, I won't be buying anything from the Google Store ever again. I'm going to go pick up a 4 XL locally this morning and cancel my Google Store shipment. Based on the current level of incompetence, I imagine they will give me a lot of trouble getting my money back too.
Mine has arrived and processed at Edmonton should be here this afternoon.

Decided to contact Google chat support and the rep told me she needs to transfer me to the shipping team as it seems there is an issue with the device being sent to Canada Post.
Had me waiting nearly an hour to be transferred before I just gave up on waiting.
Leaning towards just cancelling my order and buying the phone from a local best buy or something but I really would love to have that $150 credit for pre-ordering. I also had $50 credit from before so it was helping a bit with the price.
Going to try giving them a call instead of chat and see what happens. Man this sucks, was really hoping to set this 4XL up over the weekend.

Isn't it sickening? There is just no excuse for that kind of incompetence, especially from such a massive company.
What version of the phone did you order? I ordered a white 128 GB XL and it arrived yesterday via Canada Post for me. I'm in Nova Scotia. I ordered mine similar to you, shortly after it was available for preorder on the 15th.
It's possible other versions of the phone (color/storage) did not ship as fast.

I ordered the Just Black 128GB model. Seems like it's the least popular option so I thought it'd arrive sooner than later. Definitely didn't expect for an issue like Canada Post not even receiving the phone :/
