Canada silver arc - Xperia Arc General

Was at rogers store today to visit my friend and he received a delivery and there was a silver arc there also. So rogers would also have silver arc

I should go and get my share... I wish they were unbranded.

Which Rogers Store? I'm in Vancouver too.
When will they be on sale? I heard 28th but I'm hoping some stores would sell them earlier. I was wondering about the Misty Silver version since the pre-order and now finally an answer. Thanks!

they might be dummy phones or just for display purposes

I know Best Buy in Victoria got a shipment of Xperia Plays (White) yesterday - I played with one of the units too. I hope that the Arc also gets delivered earlier so as to avoid the run around on release day.

I've been informed that some Best Buys got their shipment of Arcs today. I'm not sure whether they are going to be selling them though!

On the Rogers/Futureshop/Bestbuy website they just have the Midnight Blue Arc
I haven't had a chance to get over to the store today (Will be heading out shortly), but I have a feeling we aren't going to be seeing the silver Arc>

There are only Blue Arcs at Best Buy; the Play is available in both colours.

After shopping around a bit I can now confirm that we won't be seeing the silver arc in Canada
Maybe it'll come eventually, but for now we're stuck with blue.
Luckily my X10 still has some fight left in it!

Samsung Galaxy S3 already on sale in Dubai

It seems like the Galaxy S3 is already on sale in Dubai more than a week before its official release date. According to the website, multiple sources confirmed the story to be true.
Is there anyone in Dubai around here ?
http://www.android.gs/samsung-galaxy-s3-now-on-sale-in-dubai/
Not quite, but I have a friend who lives there... I'll ask him and return with an answer
I'd better start calling my relatives in Dubai and see if they've got some spare change for a Galaxy S3
This is unfair!
I want the GS3 already!!!
I can confirm they are on sale in Dubai. 2499AED.
More people confirmed it, so it seems to be true.
Talked on Facebook with my friend in Dubai and asked him to check out Galaxy S3 availability... He said that it's already available for purchase, priced 2,500 AED
Could anyone ask about the colours and storage options it is available in dubai..?
Wow out early and it's cheaper.
cheaper than uk
2499aed =£430 = $680

They are all 16Gb.
The store I checked had 4 white ones in stock. They said they might receive some blue tomorrow morning. If so, I'm going go down there, compare the two colours and buy the one I like.
nice to know they got white, hopefully that means the online stores wont have a delay on white.

Most stores are now out of stock. No store has had any blue ones in as yet.
The units sold/in stock have been white.

Good old Dubai the bastion of capitalism where the gulf in society is bigger than anywhere else in the world mind you anytime ive been there it's been amazing and despite it's faults i miss the place although im not sure i could live there full time with their outrageous laws, i remember when the HTC HD2 was first released Dubai too seemed to get that phone first.

I picked one up today from the Stratford store in London UK - Price was (inc VAT) - £399.00
They only had the wifi version in white - couldn't resist so purchased although ideally wanted the 3g one with more storage.

Thanks! Was wondering what their price would be. I might just wait till Sept 1 for the deep grey. Seems nowhere in the UK has it in stock until Sept 1..
Samsung website says Argos is a seller, but they have no idea.
Carphone warehouse is selling it and has the 16gb white vetsion in stock. Expansys and clove are selling 16Gb and 32gb white and grey but are showing No stock until 1st Sept.

Oops. Well have to wait then...
I asked at a carphone warehouse today to be told that've they should have stock in 2-3 days. I'm after a grey 3g one which I have preordered on amazon, but if I can get it sooner I wouldn't mind.
I doubt that the guy knew what he was talking about though

Hey,
Just wondering was that amazon.com or .co.uk? I can't find it on the UK site - has anyone else found any UK online/highstreet stores with the note 10.1 in stock or for preorder? I'm after the grey 32gb.
Grey is not up yet.
Amazon is really stupid. You have to search through electronics and samsung.
Only the grey 16gb version is available and the white 16gb. Funnily the grey version now shows as unknowing date for delivery and stock. Only the white shows as in stock on the 1st of september.

Just ordered my Grey from a stockist on ebay. Paid a little more than in store for White but its dispatched already hopefully recieve it tomorrow, to impatient to wait until September..... £429

I ordered mine from Expansys, it's a euro import but it arrived quickly and I am happy

Green z3c?

Is there any truth to the statement that this is only available via carphone warehouse? Wife wants one but its a $200 premium!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yes, it appears to be only available (sim-free) at the higher price of ~£430 from both Carphone Warehouse and the Sony Mobile GB site. I think I read somewhere, maybe here, that it's to encourage buyers to take it on contract.
It is available with Expansys as well.
unfortunately expansys is the only company that asks you to preorder and put your credit card details in without telling you how much they'll bill. Probably hoping you'll forget to check (yes you can cancel)

Thx. I only checked in my country and Europe. But at least we have a price here
Best regards, Coempi
Since today some Dutch webshops (and propably stores) have all the colors in stock and make no difference in price by the color you want.
Links to shops ? Ive seen nevermsrp and expansys exporting the green color so far.
Here's the green one going for $549. I just got an email from them asking if I still want to keep my pre-order. I'm a little unsure now since I don't know how warranty will work...
http://www.expansys-usa.com/sony-xperia-z3-compact-unlocked-lte-16gb-green-265640/
nvm turns out the product code has the phone name for expansys, 5803.
i asked them for some shipping ETA but they have no idea so far.
that said its the cheapest green 5803 exported to the USA so far. (obviously 100 bucks more than clove if you don't get green)
Here in HK its available in all 4 colours at the major retailers like fortress. Same price for all $4398 HKD. With a ton of extras thrown in.
Pity we don't get the noise cancelling headphones included...read in some review that certain countries get it with the phone.

thats about the green price here, albeit no extra and no noise cancelling headphones
I spoke with one of the support guys at Expansys. Their shipment of green Z3C will arrive on Tuesday Does anyone know if it's worth waiting for the US Sony store to release this? What's the typical price difference between Expansys USA and the Sony store?
Apparently sony has a press conference scheduled for october 9th in nyc. Possible US availability announcement?

it makes sense - thats the time they need to ship it from europe today, to them, including the weekend.
i dont think sony will ship earlier than expansys if they do announce US availability. But it might be not very far apart.
In general sony doesnt release to the US directly only through carriers and even so its pretty rare and very late. so generally expansys usa has them way before sony/carriers (month(s)). but this time around it could be that sony has them a week or two later who knows.
All I know is.. i should get mine next week at this rate

I would say it's somewhere around 15-20 % depending on sending country VAT (plus customs expences?).

Bad news everyone. Expansys says they are only getting white and black. They won't be getting green for this shipment :/

11 March release day... who's getting one

Release day is upon us!! Who's getting one today?!
I can't wait for this work day to be over and get me Onyx Black S7 Edge... if I can find one that is. Shop assistants around HK have been telling me the pre-orders are huge, so might be difficult to find one. But I will certainly try!
Uhm. I've had mine for like a week.
I also had mine for over a week
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
Mine came on Tuesday morning.
And here I am hoping my phone ships tomorrow (11th).
Canada is getting rekt, no stock for S7 Edge Silver, Gold and some Black till late March - mid April.
I picked one up yesterday in a store. Don't ask me how as today is release day ;D
I'm expecting a call today from Mediamarkt that I can pick it up today. I bought it carrier free, coming from the S2 which performed great the last 5 years (had to buy a new battery pack though after 2/3 years) I expect nothing less from the S7E :highfive:
on preorder, it won't release here until the 21st and deliver on the 22nd.

It's not too much of a problem in Asia, stock there is high enough and there are enough distributers to place your order from. Here in Canada you have limited choices due to how much power the telcos have.

Yep pre-ordered this morning online. Ship date was 19-21 Apr.
I have indeed, Midnight Black. I got told over the phone while making the order that it would arrive on the 29th but on the website it states the 20th for pre-orders. Hope it's the latter! I'm getting it from my network on contract this time though, not buying from Samsung directly.
Yep, preordered mine. Midnight Black. Didn't get any info about the VR though, does that come later?
Vr does not ship with phone. You submit a scan of the receipt and upload it to samsung promo site and then it ships direct from them in 4 weeks or so. Same as it was for S7
Ordered mine last night at 12:06am. Midnight Black S8+. Going to be sexy as hell. Ship date of 4/20-21. Also getting the VR bundle as promo for preorder. Considering paying the extra $99 for the AKG over the ear headphones + 256gb sd card.
http://imgur.com/001E1R6
The ones from Samsung supposedly arrive on the 20th and they include the promotional items. No filling out forms or wating for them to process and ship it separately.
Mine was a complete rigmarole. When I moved from the V10 to the V20 because the V10 just stopped working, they took away my Jump and then when I wanted to upgrade to the S8+ I was told I'd have to pay full price.
Next breath, the rep said, "If only you had Jump..." I lost it on her and told her I was told I couldn't keep jump. Very long silence, and she comes back with, not sure why you were told that, maybe we can put it back. An hour late, and a supervisor re-established Jump and I was able to upgrade to the S8+. Very weird they are stripping people of their Jump when it wasn't sunsetted at all.

Are they not unlocked from Samsung in US then? They are from the UK.
I've ordered from Samsung directly this time as CPW ballsed up the note 7 recall so I'd rather go direct. I'm not sure that will result in better service but hey ho.
just ordered mine in Sweden.. We don't seem to get anything extra with it.. No offers for early ordering at all. which sucks.. Got the Arctic Silver, delivery expected on the 20th April.
Just pre ordered mine last night. Says it should arrive the 21st
