HTC U 11 UK availability - HTC U11 Guides, News, & Discussion

I know there's a thread relating to CPW but this thread is for all UK options. Be it contract or SIM free, try to get best deals.
So far best deal seems to be thru CPW £599.
Didn't see any preorders thru network yet.
If anyone has any news could share it here.
This phone won't appeal to the masses as it will never receive the same marketing advertising as Samsung also might have been better to be priced around £550.

It was never goin to be priced at £550, the 10 was just under £580 at launch.

Actually, it is priced £550 from HTC with discount from HTC UK on Twitter, and the 10 was just over £500 using the same method.
Just message HTC UK on Twitter and inquire about a discount code ?
Never hurts to ask.

They now encourage you to join the HTC Club, where the phone is priced at £584. Obviously your discount code is better, any chance you could share it if its not unique?

I would share it with you, but it was only valid for 24 hours and I believe single use.
I did try to share after I used it with other UK people, but they couldn't get it to work again.
Have you tried messaging on Twitter? That's probably the best option.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

That's a good find. I might try it but at the moment quite happy with S8 Plus. I'm so used to big screen not sure I can go down to 5.5. I hope HTC do well though as I've been HTC fan since their first smartphone.

I can confirm what spikeydoo2006 said - I just tweeted them asking for a discount code as I was interested in buying it if a discount was available for previous customers (that was a slight...well...lie, this will be my first HTC phone) and they gave me a 15% discount code.
I would advise just to check the discount before purchasing though - when using it on Chrome it only gave a 10% discount, but using it on Edge gave the full 15%.

I looked at sim free and still decided to go with ee on pre order. 20% NHS discount on the line rental swung it for me.

20% is pretty good discount which is what I get with my upgrade.

Trade in an Apple Iphone and get up to $350 off an HD2

***
If you happen to have an iPhone you're willing to give up, T-Mobile appears to be running a promotion at certain locations through May 19 that would give between $100 and $350 off of a new HD2 for anyone trading in a working handset.
***
This is a great deal for all the iphone users who are tired of their device and decide to jump on the hd2 bandwagon. It must be noted though that this offer is good only at PARTICIPATING t-mo dealers, so it's better to check with your local store if it's joining the club
The other great thing is that you don't need to sign a new T-Mo contract when making the trade-in.
For more info, take a peek here:
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/04/trade-in-your-iphone-for-an-hd2/
It's fake, I went to the store and employees have never heard a blip of this deal.
It's posted on april first anyways.

Actually, sorry to break it to you... but it's NOT a "fake".
I'm a T-Mobile Sales Representative in Dallas, TX. And a close friend of mine, also fellow XDA user, "Heartbreak" utilized said offer just this afternoon.
He actually received $400 in "store credit". We only had one HD2 available.
That invoice that's picture is REAL. Just because it isn't "promoted", doesn't mean there aren't ALWAYS such deals going on.
Does it have to be an Iphone?

YES! YES! And... YES!
It absolutely has to be an Apple iPhone. And from what I understand... we're NOT taking 1st Generation devices, but in some cases, my managers both suggested we're willing to make exceptions based on the conditions.
Anyway, this is quite charitable of T-Mobile, considering very few companies EVER do such a thing in terms of providing one of the hottest devices on the planet (right now) for the most popular, in exchange for store credit.
T-MOBILE USA, FTW!!!
I was *just* able to order my HD2.. literally 5 minutes before I found this post.
if you go to the website on the screenshot, is asks for a promo code.. how are customers provided with the code? should I call back?

I guess it depends on how they classify the S. Technically, if buying it off contract, it is a no-contract phone, but I assume they mean go-phones by the exclusion of unlocked phones. It's worth a shot though. Thanks!

Gotta agree. I have a bad feeling it will depend on how cool the manager is in the store and at best a 50/50 shot
I a silver member i am going to buy it unlocked to try out the tzones hack. Also will see if the 12% will work and i will get 45day to return the phone if i don't like it with silver membership. also u have to have the silver membership to get 12% bc it is only 10% normal.
thanks for posting this, will try this out tomorrow..errr later today!
I will give it a shot tomorrow and see what happens.
just tried it, its a no (I'm a premier silver member). coupon is for pre-paid phones, not off-contract/unlocked phones.

She seems to know what she's doing (been helped by her many times before), so she didn't even scan it. I thought better and didn't push her to try to scan it.

Xoom Wifi UK Preorder

I've ordered mine
If you get to the product page it says that it will be delivered september 6. Wow
9 April I thought?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Cant anything mentioning september on the product page.
However it does have a delivery date of 9th April.
Thats only 1 month away!
Very excited, and I want one so bad. But Im abit nervous cus there's hardly any apps yet. I wonder how many decent quality apps (proper apps i mean) will there be in 6 months?
I appreciate its a brand new device etc. I just hope we get apps quickly.
Not sure Im liking this annual cycle of technology, £499 is alot of money to be out of date 12 months later and trumped by new hardware.
In the mean time, is it worth it, just for the "sofa browsing" when I already spend most of my time infront of my pc, at home and work?
I am hoping they drop the price before next month slightly to be honest...
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Any info about the wifi + 3G availability in europe please ?
Ok Moto Wifi only version needs to come to the U.S., thanks!
£499 is way over the odds considering you can get a 4G unsubsidised non-discounted one in the US for less than that. Dixons group are notorious for overpricing things and you would have to be a sucker to pay that price for it.

If they get enough pre-orders then no they won't. In fact they originally priced it at £449 then quickly withdrew it and added £50.
Everyone, if you order from Dixon's there's a discount code to get 10% off. Just ordered mine at £449.99
Code is DXPC10 but only available until 8th March.

I'm wondering should I cancel my order and re-place it - but they have taken the money already so if it takes awhile to get the money back in my account then I'm stuffed as I can't go losing £1k from my account while I am waiting for them to sort out refunds....

Hands down cheapest place to buy without contract

Ordered my Galaxy Note already cuz it was supposedly due to arrive for release on 11/01/11 but now AFTER THEY DEBITED MY CC, that may be changing. The new word is it may end up being 11/17/11 after all just as originally announced and this SUCKS of course cuz I chose this over the Nexus due to the earlier release date.
Otherwise I would've waited and saved on the accruing interest charges - although I could've saved the credit just in case of an emergency of some sort. Hell I've never paid full price for a phablet or smartphone before let alone buy an unlocked version.
This better be worth it baby! It better be worth it.
I sure am going to miss getting those updates from Google earlier than a carrier would've released 'em.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
URGENT NEWS FLASH - Newegg.com currently has this - the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 International @ a jaw dropper $499.00! You better hurry before this sale ends. Newegg is also offering free shipping on both models and this is a $200.00 savings from the release date!
Here is the link for the Blue version; http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875176317

how much you ordered ?
I ordered from England @ a place called Clove.co.uk & paid $705 US. But this is for an UNLOCKED PHONE, I will not be bound by any yearly contact with anybody. I'll be free to go to the best carrier with the best coverage & price anytime I want to.
The price is with it to me considering its going to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $299 - $399 WITH A 2-year contact. So do I think it worth the price? Hell yes I do!

Yup...........
You scared the **** out of me!!! The difference in pricing comes down to the shipping fees. I pre-ordered early, like when they announced it on September 1. I've been hitting the site daily finally saw a sort of decent price and spanked that monkey baby!
It could also have been the exchange rate too. I called Handtec and the difference comes down to shipping making Clove & Handtec pretty much the same price +/- a few $$$. That isn't enough to make me cancel the order and go with Handtec. Also, Handtec seems a little confused when you ask specific questions relating to specs and other info.
Maybe it was just the hit I dealt with - I dunno. Lastly, they're offering a version"network unlocked" which as he described as "upon boot I would see a network logo and from then on it would be basically unlocked, and that could be taken care of by either rooting the PHABLET or some other kind of software solution". Oh the price for that version is roughly £448.99 if you want to take a chance on that. They are expecting to receive they're first shipment on 10/31 and puter-orders will go out that same day.
Sounds awful confusing comming from a sales rep from such a well known dealer. For me that pretty much sealed Handtec' fate of me NOT buying a phablet from them.
Swyped on my HTC EVO 4G Supersonic baby!

Yeh right, I have actually heard reports of 3 refunding the £70 recently so just yell at them a little and I'm sure you'll get sorted!
Gonna do the same here with tmobile they said delivery friday
Having just got off the phone to the 3 upgrades team they told me that although the website shows the end of the month they're expecting some Silver handsets in today so I could have my new phone by Tuesday. They did say that they couldn't confirm this however and would be in touch to let me know as soon as they could confirm or deny it.
I am however holding off until the 5th of next month anyway as I currently still have to pay £26 early upgrade fee....And they don't seem to want to budge on that haha!!
Oh I've also emailed CPW to see if they're up for matching the new deal released on the 3 website as they're still showing a more expensive tariff so I'll be interesting to see if they do drop the price.
just spoke to 3 - anybody who has pre ordered the black or silver will be refuned the £69 off their bills.
sorted
mine is out for delivery between 2.30-3.30 today

mabye because they have really good deals anyway?

It is very good but when a third pary website is offering the same contract at £32 a month saving £48 over the contract term it's almost enough to entice me over (be it a small amount) I'm thinking surely 3 could let me off the small amount I owe seeing as it's clear the contract can be offered for less?

You tried speaking to them? They seemed to have no problem with refunding the £69 for me, all depends how desperate they are to get
our orders i suppose!
searens Beck
3 have recently not been very helpful re. small discounts off contracts. I mean their deals are really great, the ultrafast One on the One Plan for 36 a month when LTE is available at the end of this month is a really good deal.
but even though you may have been an old customer, they just offer the same deals that are available on the website for new customers.
i pain 69 upfront day before, and have to collect from the store today. called them on 333, they 'have no record of the 69 payment, please discuss with the store you purchased from, they may be able to help you.'
Bah.
Yes I hear you. I spoke to them a little while ago and asked why if I was leaving 3 would the cost be £26 and if I was to upgrade it would be the same price? Surely as I'm staying with you by upgrading you should be able to sort me out? They just basically said no lol. I don't get it, I know for a fact they can afford to move on this, it's pennies to them!
Yeah three look after new customers, yet current ones get sweet fa.
I'm confused about their lte. The one uses dc-hspa yet 3 says it's lte ready despite the phone not having it listed?!

the One is def LTE ready and will get it as for no extra cost on 3 as soon as they upgrade to LTE.
Just got off the phone to 3 again and they've said the lowest they can take my pay-off to is £23....I just don't get why they can't just ignor that last little bit, I mean come on! lol
