Dopod 818pro/830 price

Hi all!
I'm currently in China and wondering if I would save any money buying this phone in Hong Kong. I am planing on going there this summer but not sure if I should wait until I going to Hong Kong to buy it.
Also, anyone know the max capacity SD card that it can hold?

i dont know about saving money, but i think you have more choices (different brands) and CID unlocked in HK. I think the price has fallen way below 3000 rmb or HKD by now.
I dont know the max size of SD card can hold, but I'm sure best price range is 2 gb sd cards, u can find 4 gb sd cards work as well, but price will be higher. I dont think you save much to get SD over there vs in USA. and You have to worry about warrenty and stuff.

Oh, so maybe I'll wait then. In Beijing I was quoted 2900RMB for the 830 but it's smuggled from Taiwan, which explains why it's so cheap. Only problem is that due to the fact that the phone was smuggled from Taiwan, there is basically no manufacture warranty so only the store where it is purchased can fix it.
Do you know of any HK websites so I can get an idea of prices and also other models that HK might have to offer?

Cheapest/Best Place to buy an Xperia? X1i or X1a, doesnt matter

hey guys, I have been wanting an Xperia for a while and I finally have enough money to buy one but I was just wondering where was the best place (located in the United States) to buy one? I am on T-Mobile USA so 3G doesn't matter, an X1i will be perfectly fine. I am trying to avoid the 700-800 dollar premium price as I have seen many for 600-650 new.
The best place atm in my opinion is...
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson...sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1234846501&sr=8-1
Just a question though, do ALL xperia's come with a 4GB MicroSD? Amazon doesnt specify what the package contents are. I can only be sure of the phone,manual,ac adapter,etc...

ebay would be your best bet. i saw "experia x1" goes around $640ish with free shipping... they are all x1i

place to buy x1
I bought mine on craigs list for 500. People are selling them cause they need the cash.. The guy had it listed at 600. He took 500 without any question.
I love hard eco times

ah I have been looking on craigslist for weeks! No one has an xperia for sale in my area (Sacramento, California)....
if the international versions do not have US warranties, how will the warranty work? I'm sure there has to be some kind of warranty in place.

oops ...mods please delete

yoou should be able to find it cheaper from
uk ebay
handtec
clove
shipping may be more expensive than you think

I got mine for 630 on ebay like a week ago.

Is better to buy in Europe, Korea or China?

Hi all
I would buy this phone and my friend is now in China and then will go to Korea.
Where better to buy? N9005 Snapdragon, Exynos or N900S N900? Chinese.
I hope that some of you advise me.
thanks
Do you know by any chance the price in different countries?

If you have LTE in your area I would recommend getting the N9005 in Korea. China doesn't offer either the N9005 or N900, they have their own variants which all lack google apps

in the shop

There's a good chance of network frequency incompatibilities if you're going to use an Asian model anywhere else in the world. Not to mention the Region lock, but both can in theory be solved by flashing and rooting.
As for EU prices:
Netherlands €672
Germany €649
Belgium €649
Switzerland 749CHF/€606
(no, I have no idea why the price in the Netherlands is so ridiculously high.
Actually yes I do: It's good old-fashioned Dutch Greed.)

best thing to do always, buy the set where you live, mainly for warrantr purposes, I have taken to dealer 3 different sets in 6 years, If you get yours from china whom are you going to claim warranty if needed? think carefully, luck

buy in HK or TW, there are both N9005 or N900 internatinoal version available, I paid for my N900 32gb black 468 € and I care less about warranty because the first thing when I went home is CF auto... and now very happy about the exynos version does not have region lock or knox trigger - best Galaxy till now

Ok, that's worse.
Good thing there's no import restrictions or costs in the EU, then. Even with shipping it's cheaper to order in another country.....
For you Americans complaining about having to pay $300, that's $1133.

Do NOT buy in China, as this will be the locked Chinese version with no play store, etc... Having said that, any phone market in China will also have the HK or international version as well (9005)... so if you're friend is smart enough to be able to identify the international version and make sure he/she doesn't buy the China version, this would be a good move. Prices for import phones in China are often quite keen, but then again this comes down to your friend's negotiating power...
I've always found Samsung stuff in Korea to be more expensive than elsewhere, and a Korean colleague of mine specifically bought his S4 in HK instead of in Korea due to this...
HK probably the best bet though. Note, reason is simply that HK has no sales tax, so is always going to be cheaper than somewhere that does... HOWEVER, some countries allow you to get tax back at the airport. For example, if you buy the phone in Germany, but you don't reside there, just show the tax receipt and the phone to the tax office at the airport and you'll get something around 15% of the price back. Note not all countries do this. China doesn't. Singapore does. HK doesn't need to. I think all of the EU does (as long as you're not an EU resident).
I personally bought my N3 in Australia a couple of weeks ago for AUD 880. I then got around 80 AUD back at the airport (have forgotten exact amount but around 80 AUD) so my actual price was 800 AUD which is 565 EUR / 773 USD. Seoul airport wanted over 1,000 USD for it. HK airport wanted around 900 USD, but note these are airport prices and this was days after launch.

never buy an android device in china, you will find that the google framework/service are all missing, btw i got my n900 in hk.

Availabiity and where-to-buy in Europe

The Mate 9 Pro isn´t sold in Germany (and most other middle-European Countries) due to the fact, they do have a exclusivity with Porsche Design.
Only the Mate 9 Porsche Design with 256 GB, a leather case and dual power supply is sold for exclusive 1,395 EUR
The very, very similar Mate 9 Pro with 128 GB is sold - for example - in Denmark for around 760 EUR. With some exporting sellers it is available for 799 EUR incl. transport to Germany.
But: This can´t be the only availability of the Mate 9 Pro - isn´t it?
Even if most Scandinavian merchants won´t ship to Germany (don´t know why, it is all EU), there always is a way using Borderlinx or similar forwarding services. But I wasn´t able to find a seller in Scandinavia in Internet.
Does anyone have an idea where to buy it in Denmark (or Norway or any other EU Country)?
best regards
Dietmar

thanks but you have to live in Sweden, you can't enter a foreign address nor a foreign mobile phone number... too bad

Try Dustin dk or se, they are the same group as CDON. Also expansys dk is very good and trustful site.
