UK / Europe buyers - Moto X General

I for one am itching to get one over here in UK. I am going to wait for the developer or unlocked gsm version to appear.
Are there others in the same boat? How are you getting yours sent over?

I don't think the UK/Europe is getting it in any form, the moto.uk dpage says 'something new is coming' but I suspect it's going to be the cut down cheapo version.

I know. Bit I can't be the inky one that's going to get one sent from the US

Your not alone mate. I will be importing one soon.
I will be either getting an AT&T 32GB customised one which I will unlock, or I will get the Developer Edition since that's 32GB too.

I'm not bothered about the customs as I'm boring and just want woven black anyway.
How are you getting it sent over? Or buying from a site?

You also have to remember that UK prices don't directly transfer to US pricing even through currency conversion. I suspect that the sgs II will be between $500 and $550 in the US at launch off contract.

Yea but the US versions will take apart a lot of features to lower the price. I remember the original EU galaxy s was almost 700!

Not necessarily. I will bet you can find an imported eu sgs II for around $550 pretty soon after it's launched.

So are we only going to see 16GB models announced for the US today?
Disappointing the multitask sidebar isn't there for you but hopefully it will come to an update asap..
Congrats BTW-grey keeps looking better the more I see it
Grey does look very nice.
I also have no family or known good friendsthat work for tmobile, just sorta lucky I guess. All it took was a little searching.

If it is the 16gb make sure it is not thru Tmobile. People are purchasing thru TMO for $199 or even that last deal they had where it was for $50 or free I think. After they sell it then they wait a week or 2 and report it lost, stolen and TMO will block the IMEI.

Let's say that after a month or 2 you don't want the device and want to sell it, you will have a better chance of selling it to able to use on att, tmo, simple etc.

Assuming the seller doesn't have insurance on the phone:
What would this seller gain by reporting it stolen? He's still gonna have to pay the early termination fee.

I think it's easier to assume the seller does have insurance, especially on a two day old phone with plans of doing a scheme.
it's also easy to assume the seller may prefer the phone he was using before the n4, change the SIM, no etf

That's assuming he/she pays the etf. Some won't and could care less about their credit. Seller could be selling an already stolen phone and banking on getting rid of it before iemi is blacklisted.
I've also heard people use fake info to sign up for a 2 year contract get phone then just stop paying

IMO, pay the $50 extra from one directly from Google. $300 sounds tempting but it could easily turn into 650

Yeah, wherever he sells it, the shipping to Europe doesn't make sense...
Yes international version has . Nöt syre the US versions have. I know the developer version doesnt, so you cant use it in some European countries.....if you want to use LTE that is.

Ah, that explains it. But the first pre-orders are just now shipping. So you are advertising the phone for sale before you get it...
Yeah originally my brother was keeping the second handset but he has decided to purchase a Galaxy S4 so I'm stuck with a spare handset technically. as my cousin in Boston is on Verizon the device is useless to him
