Available for £350 at Clove and Handtec UK ! - Xperia Z3 Compact General

Yes, amazing price (that's why I put an exclamation mark in my title).
Price includes vat, don't know how much the postage is.
Green colour not available from Clove, available at Handtec but costs a lot more.

Wow. That's actually an insane price. I'm seriously tempted the cancel my Sony Store order and get it through these guys instead.

2 quick questions as I'm a newbie to importing:
1) Do I have to pay "VAT" if I'm importing to the United States?
2) Would Sony honor the warranty on this 'grey market' device in the United States?
Thanks for any help you can give

Wow, indeed. I'll probably order from Handtec soon.

You'll need to pay the vat as it's been sold in the UK and the taxman will want his cut of that sale.
Don't know about the warranty, it could be a European one or Worldwide, you'll need to contact the seller or Sony to check.
Also you'll need to check that the GSM will work in your region.
Update - No vat to pay for exporting.

I'll probably order a red one from Clove tomorrow,I hope this isn't a typo and they honor the price. I'm sure though I've seen it on Clove before at £420, so it does look like this is a genuine price reduction.

http://www.handtec.co.uk/sony-xperia-z3-compact-16gb-green.html
£425.99 incVAT
£354.99 exVAT

Thanks for the info on the low price! Went ahead and ordered one from Clove.

Ordered mine. Great price. Happy to see Sony going for volume over margin. Hope to see lots of development on this, as it should be incredibly popular. Honestly expected it to be £500 at the Sony store and ~£440 at the cheaper retailers.
Re: importing to the US, you shouldn't need to pay VAT (contact the retailer to make sure they don't charge - may be better to order over the phone), but you will need to pay import / customs duty and possibly sales tax in your state in the US.

Me too. Brilliant value

GREAT! Thanks!
Just brought a red/orange one from Handtec, since they use DPD which is my favorite delivery company.
Does anybody know if the phone their sell is UK model, EU or grey import?
P.S. DPD will give you 1 hr window slot in the morning of delivery, and you can track the drive on a map to see roughly when you will get your delivery within the 1hr time frame. Much better than other company's 8am to 6pm delivery time frame, too afraid to go the the bathroom for missing the door bell approach.

There are only two models: D5803 and D5833. The D5803 has UK and EU bands, as well as bands for some US carriers. The D5833 is the one for Asian markets. You can be sure the Handtec one is the D5803.

Handtec removed the green z3c and also matched price with clove - both are about 290 GBP without VAT

Ordered mine today and was pleasantly surprised when it came out to 290 GBP at the checkout since I'm from Canada and don't have to play the VAT fee! Best pre-order pricing for a beastly phone eVar!
P.S. LULz at all the Apple fanboys waiting in line and paying nearly twice as much for a significantly more inferior phone, but hey, whatever floats your boat!

Hah! Yeah, I've seen that graphic make its rounds around social media. Classic. But also true! So by 2016, the iPhone 7 may have finally caught up to the Z1 Compact.

Ordered mine from Clove yesterday, with shipping to Mexico so no VAT.
I can't wait for this to be delivered!

Anybody know if phones from clove / handtec come as bootloader unlockable?
Listings say sim free/unlocked which is not the same thing...

From history, it has always been the case that sim free Sony phones from any outlet always allow unlocking of the bootloader. I doubt that this would change this generation.

Hah! Just noticed Clove is basically selling the Z3C for the same price as a Z1C. That's crazy!

Ya I've messed about with my sisters One X & I liked it
But
The Killers blows for choosing the SGSIII were removable battery & expandable memory. Plus all the other things smart stay etc.
I hope it now lives up to my expectations

Looks like Samsung is out hunting for girls.
I get mine on the 29th. I've got 3 days of work at the London MCM Expo, so it should kill some time.
i should be getting mine on the 31st through amazon.
bits i have also ordered are the dual pack of slim samsung cases, the tpu blue case(samsung), an extra battery,pack of 2 screen protectors(samsung) and recently the rock hard cover. Im always unsure which case will work best, but i hate the flip tops.
according to amazon, the screen protector should arrive on the 29th, the battery on the 1s of June. The covers are ordered from mobilefun and i have no info on those..
Pebble blue for me as well, and i have an extra 16GB micro SD waiting for the phone...
Aha! replaced my delivery method with amazon and now ill get it on the 30th of May! yeah!
Ordered mine through dialaphone for delivery on the 30th, so only 5 more sleeps! It comes with a case and 32GB card, but they turn up in a month which seems a bit bizarre!
I've ordered a rock case with screen protectors, a car holder, a bike holder for my golf trolley and some nfc chips to play with

I ordered 10 25mm ultralight ones from nfcdog.com it came to just under £11
But having read up some more apparently the 38mm ones are easier to use as you don't have to be as accurate with them
The plan is to for one in each holder to auto launch the correct program when I insert the phone. And one by the bed to turn the phone into silent
Did an early upgrade with Orange last night, guy on the phone was very helpful, 36 a month, 1000 mins, unlimited texts and 1gb of data.
I lost my SGS1 about a month a go and my bank have replaced it for me with an SGS2! which i will sell towards the early upgrade cost and any accesories i buy.
Gonna go with the 64gb sandisk mobile ultra sd card, and some sort of pouch.
Is there anywhere i can buy an official pebble blue battery cover? I'm concerned that because i'm upgrading through Orange that it'll have an Orange logo on the back cover and all the bloatware, can anyone shed any light on if this was the case for the SG2 or other newish handsets?
Been so indecisive on wether to get the blue or white that even now i've ordered i'm starting to have second thoughts
Ordered mine as a free upgrade from my s2. £29 per month 2000 anyone anytime mins 5000 texts 5000 3-3 mins truly unlimited web with no throttling. Result..... been hearing a lot in last hour blue s3 is delayed. Hope not tho

I've had mine ordered since the 5th of May. This has been the longest wait of my life!! I'm upgrading from an iPhone 3GS to the Pebble Blue S3 - 16GB + a 32GB SD card and cover.
I hope these delay rumours are unfounded! I was praying that because it was pre-ordered it could possibly arrive on the 29th.
This is my first Android phone ever!! So I'm looking forward to getting my hand dirty and showing its capabilities off to the iSheeple in my family (and friends).
Waiting for my sim-free blue S3 from Clove (hopefully not delayed!). Not planning on getting any accessories apart from at some point a case for the beach,and maybe the wireless charging kit when it's available but that will depend on price really. Already received and activated my replacement micro sim from Three so everything is ready

3 uk. They would not give me a deal and I said if you want my custom you'll have to offer me something better than what's on site. They said they couldn't so I asked to be put through to disconnection. They then sorted me out this deal..

I ordered the pebel blue Samsung Galazy S3 that comes with a 32gb card a screen protector and a pouch..
it's with Vodafone £29 a month for 24 months..
On top of that i ordered a few items to go with the phone..
1 x 64gb card
1x Samsung blue case
1x Car Holder + charger
1x Anti finger print screen protector
i have everything just waiting for the phone is killing me. But then again next Wednesday and we should be all good yay..
5 more days people lol..
I have a One X, but I have discovered that I can't live with just the available 25GB storage. The battery isn't such an issue, but I will certainly be happier with a removable one.
The One X has had teething problems. For example I still haven't got GPS, and HTC have said to get it, I will have to send it back for repair. So I have ordered a S3, from Carphone Warehouse, to collect on the 30th. I have got a 64Gb card, and I am looking forward to the 50GB Dropbox storage; double the amount that the HTC has. I wonder what - if any - teething problems the S3 will have?
When I get the One X back, I will compare them, and keep the best.

European availability, release dates and prices

This thread is dedicated for the European availability and pricing of the new Nexus 7 tablet. One of the puzzling questions right now is when are we going to get the device officially through Play Store, or through 3rd party retailers, and I've got some bad news, possibly not anytime soon. Feel free to share your information and contribute building up this thread
United Kingdom
Play Store - no info yet
Currys and PC World is taking pre-orders for £199 for the 16GB WiFi and £239 for the 32GB WiFi model, shipping from September 13
Ebuyer offers the same price, expecting the device on August 29
Spain
Play Store - no info yet
Germany
Play Store - no info yet
France
Play Store - no info yet
shout to the genius that closed the old thread instead of moving it here.
For France, apparently it will be for Week 38 ( September 16th) by FNAC after by the Play Store, I don't know

August 29th is certainly better than September 13th. Is there any chance of it being available sooner or August-September is really what we can hope for?

I pre-ordered from Ebuyer day after launch, the price of £200 is a rip off, based on Google's pricing of the N7 2012 it should be ~£180 but I wouldn't be suprised to see the google play price cheaper. If it appears on play cheaper I'll just cancel the ebuyer preorder.

I've ordered one on Amazon.com and shipping it via comGateway to the Netherlands since it's not possible to order directly from Amazon.
I expect it will cost me around $229 + $24 shipping = $253 = €190, €190 + €10 clearence costs (fedex) + €8 import duties = €208, €208 * 1.21 (21% tax) makes it a total of €250.
It's a fair price considering it probably won't be available here anywhere before mid September for around the same price.
A thing is, is it worth buying from US? I mean I think it'll take atleast a couple weeks, and then if there are any warranty problems, it will be awkward sending it back,having to pay for international delivery and whatnot

How come your fedex is that cheap. Mine is $28.80 for delivery.
Anyways the total price to get it delivered to UK including import tax is £238 which is close to the original price of £239.99.
And yeah warranty is a issue but I'll live. Hopefully it isn't a lemon Nexus 7 I get.
EDIT: £233 in total not £238.
Did the same with the Nexus 4 from the Google Play Store and within one and a half week I received the phone so that was a good experience.
As far is I can see the N7 will be delivered on tuesday at comGateway and from there it takes 3-5 working days shipping to the Netherlands which is pretty quick. In case I've got warranty issues I'll try to fix it with a local Asus repair center in the Netherlands, fix it myself (and losing warranty) or send it back to Amazon.

I'm paying comGateway $24 to forward the package and on top of that I have to pay Fedex €10,50 for handling customs (they advance TAX and import duties for me) so the total costs for importing the N7 is allmost €70.

Xperia Z2 Pre-Order Offers in UK

Hey guys. Since I spent the last few days looking for Xperia Z2 pre-order offers, I thought I'll share my findings with you. Here's the list of offers I managed to find. Please be advised that I included SIM-Free and unlocked offers only, as I don't care about contracts - for those you simply need to look at your network's page - and only retailers I personally know and trust as I ordered stuff from them before.
I know that some of them have already been mentioned here, but thought it would be nice to have them all in one place. Also, they are mostly UK retailers, but som if not most of them will ship within the EU so feel free to browse, even if you don't live here.

You might be right. This is a bit confusing, they posted the bundle on the SIM-Free page as well, but the * says "selected pay monthly deals".
Where did you find shipping dates for Clove and handtec? I see Clove says they will have stock starting the 7th. handtec doesn't appear to say anything. I'm not too familiar with these sites so I might just not be seeing it. If they are saying they will ship between 7-14 that would be good news. Thanks.

"First stock due week commencing 7th April"
This week is the 7th to 14th window. I assume they will ship as soon as they get the stock, that's why I put this date. All the dates, however, are not guaranteed.
Interestingly, I got an e-mail from Amazon's customer service and they assured me that their Z2s will ship on the 14th of April.
I don't get it, the phone was supossed to be released this month and sony said they're not delaying the launch only that their stock is limited but where are the phones? The phone should be out this week (last week of march) , it sounds plausible since the Xperia tablet Z2 was already released, but I haven't seen any early unboxings of the Z2 , any sample pictures from final hardware/software apart from the ones coming from Japan, the ones the press took while they were in Barcelona :crying: and that Clove review
I made payment to Clove and waiting for delivery.But still thanks.
Sony why must you hate the US
Pre-orders
wow thanks, I had a gdoc with all of this in and was checking the links seperately.
I too am leaning towards the amazon deal as I already have some gift balance available.
I do kinda wish they would price match the others though especially as the other's have a "better value" pre-order.

I'm not a fan of 'big red', but this deal seems good. How did you get the 20% discount? I can't see any mention on their website.

I just paid £360 to get out of my Vodafone contract early. Their network performance is shocking. Less 3g masts and when you do get one one, the performance isn't there, in my experience.
Would strongly recommend steering clear of their network!
Yeah I am on Vodafone in London and I hate it. Will be going else where for sure.
I haven't been able to find anything better than what's been posted already. Please update if the offers change or something new comes along.
Is there a specific place to go to on Amazon to get the voucher offer? I can't see it...
Also, have you seen it in purple on Amazon anywhere?

They appear to have removed the product as sold by Amazon themselves, I guess they have pre sold the allocation they have ordered.

Cheapest place to purchase Mate 7

Hi Guys,
I just purchase a brand new unlocked Huawei Mate 7 Gold 32gb (LT10) for $480 (EUR 400 / GBP 317).. I was surprised that his is the retail price set by Huawei! Keep in mind that the purchasing power is high in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Countries (UAE, Qatar, Kuwait.. etc).. usually phones are more expensive over there (simply because people can afford it!)
but the HAM7 is much cheaper than Europe and US.. I think it's even cheaper than Asia!!
What's the cheapest HAM7 32gb you've found ?
I think they are deliberately keeping the price low in gulf countries to catch up the market. Nice.

Are there any sites that you know of that sell at that price and ship internationally?
unfortunately not.. they only ship locally or regionally (within the middle east)
hello i am travelling next week to the UAE and i plan to buy the huawei ascend mate 7
do you recommend any nice smartphone stores with good prices in the UAE and specially Sharjah?
thank you
waiting for your reply

cheapest place to purchase Mate7
i bought this phone at coolicool . the customer service is really good
yeah there are a lot of shops that have it, I see that COOLICOOL actually also support paying with Paypal so that should be a good safe place to buy from in my opinion - and they ship internationally also.
Spotted cheap

£260 delivered to UK? (Used excellent condition, no marks at all from Amazon Italy, 30 days warranty.)
http://www.amazon.it/gp/offer-listi...b_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used&mv_color_name=1
Log in via your normal amazon account, use Chrome and translate page. Pick the best condition one on there
I got one from there for £280 which will be delivered tomorrow, I will share some pics to show you how good Amazon warehouse is
I ordered a speaker from there before (UK warehouse, Klipsch KMC3) RRP 250, I paid 80 and it came brand new!

Where to buy in New York?

Hi, as an unhappy owner if the Nexus 5X, I am looking to buy a 6P. As an EU resident however, I won't put up with the ridiculous price over here. Luckily for me, I am going to NY next week, and if I manage to find one for the right price, I will definitely get one.
I want to ask some local people for some tips and places where to look for one. It also doesn't have to be new..even refurbished or second hand in great condition would do.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Best Buy in NY have it in stock. Check their website.f
Check bestbuy, create an account if it is in stock and you can just pick it up with your photo ID and CC if you're afraid it'll be out of stock by the time you get there.

Or B&H link
So 499 is the lowest as I can get? What about some places that sell used or refurbished ones?
Thanks

It's not New York, but they're refurbished.

OP: I assume you know that the US version (1511) only supports certain bands of the international version (1512) that may limit the usage in EU and elsewhere. A reminder post, if nowt else.

as @thecarp1975 said or you can check swappa on this link for the 6p. If you have friends or trust someone, do the purchase now because it could take sometime for the shipping
kboya
Guy from a local forum has bought the 5X from US and all the bands are working..he also posted a picture of the box with all the EU bands listed..but I might double check on that one

I'm in NY and for the last 3 weeks they were on sale. Best buy had the 32 gb version for 450 and 64 gb got 500
A store known to most in the NY and NJ area called b & H photo had them even cheaper.... 32 gb for 425 and 64 gb for 475, no tax and included a $50 gift card to use at the b&h store now. Unfortunately, those sales ended a couple of days ago on March 27th. I was lucky enough to get the 64 gb for 475

got one on order myself through the B&H website unfortunately when I placed mine they had just ran out of stock and the availability date keeps getting pushed back. Went from 3/29 to 4/8 now. Disappointed as I've had good luck with them in the past

B&H is awesome. They recently had a sale where all 6P's were 50 cheaper plus a 50$ gift card... So everyone bought from them, that's why they are now ridiculously backordered.

yes probably going to somehow find some patience if I still want that discount :laugh: I'm sure it doesn't help that I got the 64 GB graphite which I see as potentially quite popular.
Looking forward to the upgrade from the original Nexus 5 to the 6p though. hopefully they won't make me wait too long
