How much? and how's the UX? I heard a lot of buzz about it lagging.

I saw Lazada got stocks of 5x 32GB for 26k. If we translate its original US price of $429, it's around 20k pesos only. But knowing our outrageous imports and duties taxes, if we get it overseas I think it'll somewhat fall in that price range of Lazada as well.

Where exactly did you buy it? I'm here at SG as well.

Hi Guys. I'm planning to grab a 5X Mint by the end of the week. Can you refer me to a seller? And saan ba ko makakabili ng screen protector / case for 5X?

Bought mine at hotgadgets, an online seller. As of now i have yet to find a screen protector and case for this phone anywhere in philippines.

how much are they selling it ? i got my n6 from them..

I just saw Yuga's 5X first impression review. Within that review, Yuga mentioned that LG won't officially bring in the 5X. I hope that's not true. I recall hearing the same thing about the N4.

usb-c to usb cable
Hi! Do you know where to find a USB-C to USB cable? The 5X doesn't include a free cable

Tab 2 7.0 w/ GSM?

The Samsung website, list the Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) with +HSPA ability... but I can not find any stores that sell it.
BestBuy.com only list it w/ WiFi capabilities.
Does anyone know where to purchase the +HSPA (GSM) model? And please no sites like eBay..
I want a reputable store.. bestbuy, frys electronics, tigerdirect, etc. No Chinese CrackStores on ebay.
Thank you...
I think you should post your country
If country is not necessarily for you, I can recommend at least nine nice stores in Ukraine
lol
I bought mine here:

Sorry..

That site seems to Highly Overprice its items... iPhone 4S 16GB Original Price $1,198? I think not.. Their sale price is still more than the Unlocked version straight from the Apple Store ($649.00) and the Galaxy Nexus is priced $30 more than what I paid via the Google Store.
Think I'll keep looking... plus I'm not familiar with that Retailer. Really looking for somewhere I can walk in and buy..

The Galaxy tab2 is not overpriced on that website,although the Galaxy Nexus (I also bought mine from Google Play) and the Nexus 7 tab are, and I agree with you.As for the iPhone they are overpriced everywhere regardless of the website.
And yes you can get the p-3100 in the US.

Oneplus One Australia thread

Do you think Oneplus One will be jacked up in price as they do with all other devices to the point that the price is no longer an advantage? I think Oneplus One will probably cost more than Nexus devices in Australia due to additional GST and demand.
They'll Jack it up, for whatever reason Lol
I reckon it will start at $400+ here unfortunately

Buy it from the USA and use a mail forwarder. Easy !
Traveling to Canada and buying it there and bringing it back
Edit: If I can get an Invite that is :/
Don't buy the US version, just buy it from mobicity

How is the camera and battery life?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
IMO, it's pretty good.. Previously using iPhone 5.. Went to school with 100% came home with about 60%.. and that's just a two hour lecture.. with about 1 hour bus ride in total.. But now with the OPO, its go with 100% come home with about 80%.. Camera wise, it's fine for me but I don't have a really high requirement considering it's a phone

Personally, I'm getting mine sent to one of my dev friends in America. But you can use a mail forwarding company like Shipito to get it here. I ordered mine (64gb) yesterday, and it ended up costing me $400AUD including standard shipping to the States. The price is a bit inflated due to PayPal's ridiculous conversation rate, which was $0.90 instead of the $0.93 it should have been. On top of that I still need to get it shipped from Illinois to Melbourne, so all up I'm probably looking at anywhere between $430 to $450 I think.
Anyways, hi guys, ours nice to see an Australian thread here.

Hey, I'm in Melbourne too - did you get yours from an invite or 3rd party store?
I'm still hoping to get an invite but am getting impatient and might just pull the trigger on Aliexpress or similar.
Which carrier are you with?
Cheers...!
I got mine from oppomart.. Costing me about $430 for the 16gb version.. I'm currently using Telstra

cost me 580 for the cyanogenmod and i received chinese OPO with cyanogenmod rom
opened a dispute with paypal
advertise the cyanogen on webshop
any other got same issue?
I ordered mine last night from OnePlus via an invite, waiting on it to ship
@gerardo66 - not sure what the problem is for you there. The only physical difference is the Chinese one doesn't have CyanogenMod stamped on the back.
The 4G band difference doesn't matter over here, because the 700MHz band in the international version doesn't work here anyway.

Edge for the UK

Okay the press release reported said that 14 November was the pre order date.
Well the Samsung UK web site mentions the Note Edge but it is not available to pre order. CPW say it is not available for pre order and think it has not been fully tested for UK networks. Stratford Samsung store are not taking pre orders. Vodafone say they are still negotiating with Samsung.
Please add your news and information.
No news but I too was eagerly waiting for more information today.
Vodafone offered me a superb retention deal on the Note 4 but I declined because I dislike the build quality and back cover of the note 4.
However I am willing to overlook these for the extra screen in the edge.
The edge should not be priced higher than the note 4 regardless of additional costs of manufacturing. It should be priced at the same level as the note 4 and simply be the product to tempt customers to Samsung where the Note 4 was not enough. I know I will not pay a premium for this phone and will be expecting the same retention deal when I call Voda on the 28th.
CPW now say Edge is coming in December
It won't be long at all for pre orders. Samsungmobileuk tweeted 8 hours ago approx a cryptic message that was easy to decipher however the price with be expensive at first.
Good thing I didn't wait. I am very happy with my purchase. Using my 3 network sim in it. Super fast and super everything!
I did an unboxing video last week, tomorrow I will upload a couple more videos show edge screen features and the flip wallet. ?

Canadian Note 5 thread

since the note 5 has been released and the release date for us Canadians is august 21. so, who's getting one? I'm still on the fence on picking up one, but if I do it's probably going be the 64gb version. Let's begin the discussion on it.:good:
I will for the first time since the note 2 not be getting a new note this year.
Samsung has totally dropped the ball (and thats a huge understatement ) this time around.
Black only and 32gb of storage?
No thanks.
sent from my Nexus 6 or Note 4
I was looking on the Bell site and I only saw the 32gb ($850). I chat online with a rep and she said they are only carrying the 32gb. At this point I can't see myself getting one

That really sucks, long term 32gb is going be cutting it close. I was hoping we would have a choice between 32gb and 64gb.

The Note 4 is now $200 cheaper at Bell ($230 with tax) - which has me seriously considering whether a Note 4 isn't a better choice for my money.

Absolutely impossible. That must be used space not free. 32gb note5 should have around 22GB available space.
64 GB Note5 has 52GB free space accordingly to one of the xda member who received his phone from At&t.

Sorry, had to!
Seriously pissed that Canada only gets the 32gb version, and only in black. I have sent protest tweets to Samsung Canada and Telus. Everyone should do the same (Samsung and your carrier).
Choice, what people want. Why does only Apple understand this?
Here's a picture. The phone is a Demo so maybe people has been testing the 4K video recording and taking lots of pictures..
Where did you see this demo
Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
I just found both at a Bell store in Chinook Centre, Calgary. Both had different free storage that I won't even bother posting. Also, don't forget that these are are retail demo units (running demo mode and with a retail disk partion) so you can't take them as gospel.

I want to check them out before deciding whether to reserve or not - could you actually play with phones at the Bell store, or were they not supposed to be on display? (Just want to make sure it's worthwhile to drive out to Chinook).

Yes you could play with both, and the regular edge and Note 4 are next to them, totally worth the drive.
