Interesting to note that the AT&T version has a 32GB storage option while the T-Mobile version maxes out at 16GB. Wonder where they are getting these 32GB cards that work flawlessly with the Venue... Also wonder what mystical firmware these might be running.

Guess we've done a good job beta testing the dell venue pro for dell, we should all be very proud!

Don't see the 32gb option...am I blind or did they remove it?

Hmm odd I was selecting the unlocked option. You only have 16gb choice there. But technically you can get to it by selecting the ATT plan option and just not choose a plan.

maybe now that it is available on AT&T Engadget might post up a review. anyone know why they haven't up until this point? I'm curious to see what they think.

Yeah was looking forward to their review for the longest time...if anybody gets this AT&T version I'd love to hear from you and what your thoughts are on it. Am looking to get this and have my fingers crossed that Dell fixed all the annoying issues.

Order one yesterday
I ordered mine yesterday. Expected delivery is Tuesday the 19th. I will post a review then, assuming it is not delayed.

Thanks. I'm thinking about getting one as well. Just got a Quantum for my wife, but it's defective. I may just send it back and get the DVP before my 30 days is up.

Does anyone know if I can use my upgrade to purchase this through the dell website but keep the unlimited data plan I have now? I'm worried about not dealing with AT&T directly because I don't want to lose my current plan.

Time to try to sell off my N1 for this new at&t version!

With TMO that is not a problem.. Just call CS after the activation and they will take care. ATT also should be the same unless their CS is horrible. I would give ATT a call and have it recorded before going ahead.

I added a line via dell's website to my att account, its a pretty easy process.

Oh well they placed THREE orders instead of one so they bumped someones earlier order and gave it to me :X. Or well thats what they said. And they gave overnight shipping as well!

Finally I have a scheduled delivery for tommorrow by 430pm!! Will report back with initial impressions.

Really curious if its going to be HSPDA+ Since we may all have to go to that phone if AT&T completes the buyout of Tmo.. really curious how well it works and if it has AT&T junk on it.
Also just noticed there is a NEW 32GB option for Tmo customers too now..
Love to know what 32GB card they are using.

I was browsing through slickdeals and found that dell is selling the Streak for $199 off contract unlocked, ATT 3g. For those of you who want to make an extra buck or have been eyeing this tablet/phone for awhile, head on over.
Sorry if I'm advertising, this just seems like a good deal so I wanted to share with everyone here.

I grabbed one of these yesterday. I didn't realize it was a limited time offer or I would have bought a handful. I'm only using mine for one week in June to videochat with home while vacationing out of the country.

I ordered one but my order status is still "In Production". Anyone got a "shipped" status yet?
Mine also say "In Production". Dell always takes their sweet time... Like 2 weeks BEFORE they ship.
i already got 3 , maybe in "in production" status for than 1 week, but hope dell ship them in 2-3 days.
I'.M order 2 same things like you. still waiting. they said delivered on 8/4/2011 hope so............
Damn! Missed this. That's a phenomenal deal considering the unlocked version has + support for both AT&T and T-Mobile. At that price I'd sell my Nexus S and move back to a Streak.

Asda Direct

Hi guys,
I just placed my order for a One last night on Asda Direct.
Anyone else orederd from them also?
Thought I would start a thread in case anyone else has.
Seems like most people who getting it SIM Free are getting it from Handtec but Handtec have no cashback so works out £13 more.
Looks like Asda Direct delivery is hit or miss so even though it states delivery on release date (which is wrong info as its bank holiday and I called them and they said should be with you on the Saturday), I doubt I will get it before 2nd April.
Does Asda direct allow international purchases also?

Ordered mine last week - due to be delivered to me the end of next week (29th). The bundle is a nice touch and £499 all in very good. They only have silver, which suits me fine. And it's SIM free...

I hope those who have ordered from expansys or handtec know they might get non-UK stock. Good luck...
You wont get it on 29th as its bank holiday.
Earliest is 30th for us.
Thats if they not sold out of first batch of phones.

I called yesterday to ask and they asked the manager and he said no deliveries on good Friday so earliest will be 30th.

Dont matter when you placed order, unless they dispatch it on 27th you wont get it before 30th.

Hi! What made you say that those who ordered from those stores won't be getting UK handsets?
I think it's quite weird since those are based on UK. I don't think HTC would be stocking US or Asian handsets on those stores right? Else that would just mess up their distribution structure.

Ás much as I want that good luck it's highly impossible. As you can see I am not from UK so having a non-UK phone on handtec would greatly benefit me as that would likely give me chances of having a compatible Asian LTE. But I already asked them about that before I made a purchase and as they said they'll be providing EU models only. They even posted on the description the LTE bands it will be supporting. So.... hopefully your words would create a miracle. lol
I sent them a email saying they are false advertising that we will get it delivered on good friday. Thats impossible so they are in fact lying to customers.
Will ask for good will reward or I will go instore to purchase one at Phones4U.

Me too. I talked to five CSRs yesterday, three of them told me it's back ordered, one of them said it would ship yesterday, another one said it would ship today. Worst company I've ever seen.

I ordered a 64 GB developer edition on Saturday 4/20 at around 11 am and it has been in picking since. I selected 2 day shipping and the original expected delivery was today 4/24. Yesterday that was bumped to 4/25. Today it says 4/26.
I've gotten more patient over the years, and my current phone is serviceable so I'm just going to sit tight for now. The worst case seems to be 'end of April' which isn't too far away.
I preordered with them, it shipped on Friday and I got it on Saturday. That said, it did sit in "picking" for a couple days before it shipped, and the order also disappeared from their online tracker right beforehand.
Yep, still waiting. I just hope to get it before my trip this Fri

Same here. Ordered on Saturday (4/20) with 2 day shipping. Status has remained "picking" since Sunday. Original shipping date was Monday with delivery today. Has been incrementing each day. Now, it is supposed to ship today... we'll see.
Tried to call yesterday. Got cut off after staying on hold for just over two hours!
Waiting patiently... meanwhile, this post has me a little concerned. I plan to use the phone with prepaid plans on TMobile and AT&T for now... with other compatible international providers as needed. I use data a lot more than voice and so, value a good/fast data connection. Am concerned that the "generic" radio may be a hindrance. That said, if it is firmware related and not hardware, it should be fixable by flashing the appropriate firmware, ROM or radio. Waiting for the knowledgeable peeps to chime in.

Mine too. Ordered on the 12th, couldn't get an order status until yesterday, still in picking. Trying to decide whether to cancel or wait it out. My G2X is crap and I need something ASAP. It was either an HTC One or a GS4, and I wanted the One, but after this mess, it's probably gonna be whichever I can get first.
I ordered on the 12th but it has been "picking" for 5 days now I'm kind of disappointed that I (promised to!) shell out so much money and now I'm waiting considerably longer than carrier customers. I'm quite patient but I wish let's talk would be a bit more finite with their dates, there is no way they have been "picking" my phone for the better part of a week.
I will only be angry if I get the phone and it has hardware defects. I would imagine the RMA process with these guys would be terrible

So was mine, shipping today for 2 days...i called them and she said oh it's because we ran out of stock (thanks for that heads up). So I cancelled and went to AT&T, which i'm glad i did they gave me $150 off even though i wasn't due for any upgrade for a long time..
Ordered on 4/9 and it still shows picking status as well. This is definitely getting ridiculous.
I ordered two 64gb dev edition handsets on the 10th and I'm on back order. I called HTC and they said there next shipment is on the 29th.
I am having the same problem too, it remaied picking for almost a week and hopefully i could get this by the end of this April because i am gonna leave on May 2nd.

Seems like getting Nexus 6 from Tmobile will be faster than if you pre-order it?

" As of 11am EST, pre-orders have yet to begin. It'll be available in stores on November 12th according to a T-Mo press release, as well."
And sourcing from all the people that pre-order it will "leave warehouse on 21st", but T-Mo will get it in store 12th?!
This doesn't make any sense.
I honestly believe that google is purposely creating this hype, so all the media will be talking about it...well to get more people to talk about Nexus 6. Smart move, Google.

Of course they are. Just like Apple does with the iPhone and Sony does with their consoles. Harder to get = higher demand. People always want what they can't have. Simple logic. :good:
Yup. I'll be going to the T-mobile store on November 12 in the AM hoping they have some in stock
I have a feeling that date is no longer accurate. But I hope I'm wrong.
Hard to say? Google could have had a more than we think made but have a certain ammount set aside for each carrier?

Apparently they are only getting the Blue version.
I've been with T-Mo for a year now and with the exception of the iPhone 6 pre-orders have been arriving either the day of launch or a day early on every major device since I joined up. Nexus demand isn't going to be anywhere near iPhone demand, so I am guessing that it will be the same here.

If they do then I'll be walking in and out with a 64gb white.
Some questions:
Will the T-Mobile version will be locked down to T-Mobile only? Meaning the resale value is going to tank?
Will it have any T-Mobile branding on the front and/or back?
Will the T-Mobile version be the only one capable of Wi-Fi calling AKA Wi-Fi Unleashed?
Can it be bought outright, or does it require a contract? I currently have the T-Mobile/Walmart $30 plan, and I'd like to stay on that if possible.

T-Mobile will be unlocked. The issue will be having the CDMA carriers adding the IMEI to their system. Using on At&t will not be a problem.
No T-Mobile branding
No idea on that one
If trying to buy our right make sure you go to a Corporate store. Retailers will most likely deny the sale of it without service. They will most likely tell you they don't have any.

WiFi calling is actually a Lolipop feature, so theoretically all carrier versions will support it. That doesn't mean they will actually work when you try to use it, though - since VZT and ATT have not rolled it out yet it's doubtful that it will.
Worst case, you can route your calls through Google Voice via hangouts on the other carriers.

Bestbuy releasing early?

Left my local bestbuy last night and a couple blueshirts there told me that they would be releasing the S7 and S7 Edge this Monday. I was pre-ordering and asked when it came out and they told me I could pick it up on monday.
So if you preordered from bestbuy i'd recommend calling them and seeing if they are also releasing it early.
I don't know how truthful BestBuy is. I got my pre-ordered T-Mobile S7 on the 3rd of March and was told by my local BestBuy store that they had the Otterbox cases in stock for the S7. So I drive over to the store and find out that they have the cases in stock but won't be releasing them until the 11th of March because that's when the phones will be released. I will NOT be going back to BestBuy again!

I bought a surround sound system from them a month ago. He told me i was gonna get a discount and hed hook me up with an hdmi and optical cable. Then he was tryin to talk me into joinin their "rewards program" it was like every $100 you get a dollar or something. I was like, "it'd take me so long, im good" but i bought a tv a couple months before so he said i could get credit for that aswell. So finally i said, "well, your not gonna send me a bunch of emails if i sign up are you". He said, " haha noooooo"!
Long story kinda shortened.
I paid full price for the SS system.
I got a wopping $5 off a used hdmi cable. Which was $20
Paid full price for optical audio cable $25
Then at the end i said oh can we add my tv to the rewards program. (Of course the salesman left so i was left with some kid to check me out)
He said, "oh man we'd have to call customer service and i dont think theyd do it anyway"
[emoji51] [emoji51] [emoji51]
Fine.......
The following weeks im flooded with best buy emails, i unsubscribe at least 10 times with no stop to it. Finally have to call a 800 number and scream at them to make it stop.
Yeah.... Best Buy can shove it...
Oh i ended up takin it back anyway so i got my money back. Hah
big thread on reddit about this: multiple best buy mobile employees confirmed it, and users who went there confirmed it. people got calls to pickup on monday too.
pisses me off bc i chose shipping instead of in store (for the first time ever with best buy) bc i was worried they'd run out of stock before my preorder was fulfilled, so i wouldn't be able to walk in friday and get it. did shipping, thinking they'll def have enough in a warehouse.
yeah, and now they release early lol. so mad.
Pre ordered from Best buy about 2 hours after they started taking pre orders and I haven't received notification yet.

They had no idea what I was talking about, and reaffirmed the 11th as the release date. This was yesterday, today my GF got a call that our phones have arrived and that we can pick them up tomorrow.

My preorder confirmation said they would Email me when the items were ready. By chance, did they mention if the Gear VR was ready for pickup also?

Sorry, She didn't think to ask about the Gear VR. I'll call to ask. Our preorder confirmation states the same about notification of pickup.

I don't know how truthful BestBuy is. I got my pre-ordered T-Mobile S7 on the 3rd of March and was told by my local BestBuy store that they had the Otterbox cases in stock for the S7. So I drive over to the store and find out that they have the cases in stock but won't be releasing them until the 11th of March because that's when the phones will be released. I will NOT be going back to BestBuy again!

Same thing happened to me. They had a Samsung rep there and I even showed him the phone, still wouldn't sell it. I went to U.S. Cellular, AT&T and even the new T-Mobile store in my town but neither had cases yet. Verizon store had the stuff out on display already so i bought my case and screen protector there.
I wondered who the *#&@ cares if I buy a piece of plastic for a phone that isn't "out yet"? I am giving you money, why do you care?! It was dumb as f.

Just got off the phone with my local BestBuy, they said that it should be no problem. She mentioned it would be FCFS based on available stock, dunno if this means you can get one shipped later, or if you are sol.
Well...that's kind of strange. The Best Buy website now shows the expected release date for the phone on my order as: "Null"?
The other 2 items still show expected release of 3-11-2016.
Edit: They just now changed the expected release date to 3-7-2016.
Mine updated! Expected release date: 03/07/2016
Logged into my best buy account and received a notification:
Pre-Order Update
The expected release date for your pre-order has changed to 03/07/2016
Guess they are finally shipping sooner than release date!
Well ****... For some reason my pre-orders aren't showing up on bb's site. What carrier are you guys on? I'm on ATT. I'll definitely have to stop by after work.
