Purchase from India? - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

So i'm seeing that the OnePlus 8 Pro 12GB is 59,999rs in India. In the USA it's $999.
However...
59,999rs converts to $780 USD. Thats a hell of a price! Has anyone found a way to purchase the phone in India and ship it to the states at that price?

Due to countrywide lockdown the sale of it will not start atleast till 3rd May.
And even if you purchase after that you will have to pay a lot @ import taxes + courier, handling charges.

Here u need to pay 999€ (1085$).
I will skip OP8 Pro and Mi10 Pro (China 620€ and here also 999€) cuz even a S20+ is under 800€.
Forget about import from India, shipping, tax, etc. and new charger u need to buy.

Just so you know, the handset won't be identical.
The Chinese/India version will be missing out on quite a few LTE/5G bands support in the states
4G Bands missing from China/India variant compared to US variant- B13, 25, 28, 29, 30, 66, 71

What about band 41?

They saved a lot on the 5G certifications that's why it's a lot cheaper here, we are not even close to thinking about 5G right now, so they did a good strategy, include just one band for publicity..

u will buy the Moto x or u will get it from USA?
I think for those who live in Europe will come down to decided whether or not they want a customized Moto X and pay a nice shipping fee to receive it at there homes.
Or if they don't mind for customization and just pay a bit less.

This is what Alex Dobie wrote on androidcentral.com:
"Motorola says the device will go on sale from February 1, and will cost £380 outright. We won't be getting any Moto Maker facilities right now, so we're limited to the black and white versions. 16GB will be the standard model available, but a 32GB Moto X can be yours from the Motorola website when it goes on sale. In addition, Motorola confirmed to us that the 32GB version will not in fact be available in the UK at this time."
Maybe a dev. edition like in the US

I'm also looking for 32gb version for the same reason. I have a 32gb sdcard actually with ~20gb of music that's why 16gb is not enough for me.
So we will be able to buy 32gb model in a future not so far. Let's wait until then

For people living in europe, it doesn't only come down to price and looks.
Buying a US version will make it impossible to use 4G/LTE in EU, so in order to succesfully connect to 4G networks in EU, one must buy a EU Moto X. Unfortunatly Motomaker and 32gb versions are not available in EU, so it really comes down to looks and space vs. 4G speed.
Btw. Importing a US version to EU, will cost the same or more, than buying an EU version, due to import taxes, unless you travel to USA and bring one home in your bag.

If you buy a XT1058 from the states you get LTE band 7 which many carriers use in Europe.
I got the t-mobile with all the cozy stuff and sent it with a friend that was flying home.
Originally the plan was to sent it with mail (this was before motorola announced that the x was coming to Europe) but I got lucky.
Sometimes you might get lucky with the taxes (in Sweden there are no tolls on cell phones, "just" 25% VAT). They don't control all packages. It also depends from which county it was sent from.
Booo for import taxes, I hate them.
"Hey, we can't compete with the price because of our superduper high taxes and average salaries, nor can we compete with the availability of products so let's punish everyone who isn't buying stuff from within the ****ty EU".
Belgians interested in this phone will have to stick to the European model if they want 4G, unfortunately none of the USA models supports LTE 1800.
Anyboy knows weather the bootloader is unlocked or unlock-able on the european model?

If you add to cart it says backordered, ship date unknown. Hopefully this will be updated shortly!
Same as UK D5803.
Does anyone have any experience ordering from Sony online? Return/exchange hassles? With the reports of some people getting units that the flaps don't close, I want to be sure that an exchange will be easy. I hope Amazon itself will sell these. Even if it were a bit more, I think I'd pay a bit more to be sure of good customer support if something goes wrong.
Figures...I just bought one via Ebay last week...Latin American version I think...Wish I would have known this was coming...Is it possible to flash the software that will come with the US version to the unit I have? Or will it break the camera?

Based in NJ, USA.
Sony = $529.99 + $37.10 tax = $567.10 and no ETA
Amazon = $519 + no tax -$25.95 (Chase Freedom 5% cashback) = $493.05 and delivered 10/18
Is why I asked if it was the same phone/firmware. I think amazon will be selling the UK version though. Both still have 1 year warranty.

Just an FYI, the phone you linked to on Amazon is not sold by Amazon, it is from a 3rd party.
Now that the Sony U.S. store officially sells these, should those of us who bought from, say, Clove, be able to get warranty service from Sony in the U.S.?
Or would we still have to go through the international original vendor like Clove?

It's likely the UK model sold by a 3rd party. If I was not buying direct from Amazon or Sony, I'd likely get it from clove. With 1-3 day DHL shipping, it's $496 at the current exchange rate. I'm not sure about your chase cash back and why it doesn't work with Sony, but perhaps it'd work with Clove? In that case, it'd be even cheaper.
I've ordered from Sony directly, but I hope we can get an updated shipping time soon. If you're a student, they are giving 10% off for students at SonyStyle as well.

Greetings from Canada everyone.
I bought my USA or WW version 551ML with 2gb and 16gb of ram from B&H.
Shipped with Duties pre-calculated and arrived in 3 days. Which is pretty awesome.
I came from a nexus 5. I can honestly say if the phone didn't have horrid battery drain, it would be perfect. I am hoping they fix the drain.
What is B&H? I thought my only option in Canada was Newegg in Ontario. I am located in Vancouver BC.

B&H is america photography store much like Black's in Canada. I got fed up with the massive up pricing at NCIX, never like those guys as they keep on screwing with me and the delays from Newegg.
They recently, 2 years or so, started shipping to Canada with Purolator and took care of all the duties provided you let them.
I really never had a bad order through them. I got an T-Mobile LG g3 for 210 USD from them before too.

I paid a total of 290 USD for the phone + a flipcase. Which was thanks to a sale in the store and my friend who had a discount code.
Couldn't be happier with the phone for that price.

No US release

Oh well, looks like no US release in the "first wave". Kind of disappointed. Maybe different processor to be used? Maybe waiting to fix camera? lol Interesting to see how plays out but March will be here in no time to see what Sammy offers...
The pricing is a bit more than was initially thought it would be. The model with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage costs €599, while the model with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage is priced at €699.
Which would be about $644 and $751 in U.S. dollars.
i actually expected a little higher price tag in euros, so thats totally fine by me
btw, isnt the GX8 the revamped mate 8 version for the US?
edit: oh nvm, its actually a revamped G8 midrange phone [emoji14]
in any case, happy to hear that germany is in the first wave, yehaw!

Too expensive for my usage in the USA.
I'm still running my Mate2, and it is flawless. I don't do games, so that's not an issue.
It runs everything else, is solid as a rock, long battery life, smooth, no lag.
Best 300 dollar investment.
Was hoping Huawei would release an update to the Mate2 at the same price point,
but I think they want to go "all hollywood" (apple/samsung) with their pricing.
Faster & faster processors with more dense screens aren't the answer. I'd rather
have a big screen, mid spec processor that is solid.
Guess I'll keep the Mate2 for another year.
Mate 8 only 500ish on aliexpress.
in asia including china, consumers do pay above $1k cash for phone
i understand that in US, you need a low hp pricing with heavy subsidy from network operator
in that case, it will be more profitable for a company to focus on area like china, india and other parts of asia where consumers are willing to fork up cash and pay list price for their phones

What's the tax rate? Or the price b4 tax?
you can check for yourself: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orig...-950-Octa-Core-Android-6-0-6/32557813072.html
3/32 gb = 486€
4/64 gb = 636 / 664€ (gold / mocha)
4/128 gb = 729 / 748 € (gold / mocha)
1 yr replacement warranty = 35 - 53€ depending on model
shipping to Germany via EU Express = 30€
so in my case it was 664€ phone / 30€ shipping / 46€ warranty
in that price they include a case (in my case a transparent TPU soft case), a screen protector, a power adapter for your respective country and they also preflash google play store and a rom with international language packages
hy,
try this site http://www.vopmart.com/huawei/filter/cat/huawei-ascend-mate-8.html
if you are from EU choose Netherlands Post Registered Air Mail and don't pay import taxes or VAT, but time to delevery is almost 30days
wish the 4gb was in space gray would have bought already. Hate the color options for the 4gb versions.

Given the slow down in China, it doesn't surprise me that Huawei hasn't set up a production line for the Mate NXT L09, the single SIM US/North American version, as quickly as the internatioinal dual SIM versions. However, the Wall Street Journal spoke to Huawei officials for the article they did in December and company officials acknowledged that the Chinese slow down means they need to develop a real market presence in North America. I expect the NXT L09 will launch in the US in Q2--it cleared the FCC in December. One thing Huawei needs to do if they want to develop a North American market to help provide additional revenue streams to offset their losses from the Chinese market slow down is to hire a few staff in North America and not rely solely on staff in China to interact with North American customers via their webpage. There are some language barriers in interacting with the company on their website. I'm looking forward to the NXT L09 lanch since it will have 4G FUD LTE band 17, which I need as an AT&T customer.

Thanks. Been on the fence and confused between this and Nexus 6P which is on deal today. My only concern is the availability of AOSP and CM Rom in future. Not really against the EMUI but its nice to have an option.

Honor 8 announced in Europe for €399/£369.99

I was surprised nobody has posted this yet... The new honor 8 was announced in Europe at a launch event in Paris today, for €399 (£369.99 in Britain - yes that's a rip off, approximately $490)
The first thing that shocked me was that its price exceeds that of the OnePlus 3 (£329) even though the OP3 boasts a better chipset, better UI and considerably more RAM, secondly Honor seems to fancy ripping us Brits off while in the US both devices are on sale for $399.
I have made my choice and already ordered my OP3
One of the biggest phone supplier here in Lithuania promised to sell starting from 270 euros. We'll see...
Shocked at the UK price, was hoping that the 64gb would be around that and the 32gb around £310, then we didn't even get the 64gb!

It's shocking, especially as the US gets it for £300... Estimates I saw suggested it would start at £225 long prior to its release, so much for that...
Anyway I've made me decision and ordered the OnePlus 3, their shipping times are atrocious but their phones are great so they're forgiven

I was surprised nobody has posted this yet... The new honor 8 was announced in Europe at a launch event in Paris today, for €399 (£369.99 in Britain - yes that's a rip off, approximately $490)
The first thing that shocked me was that its price exceeds that of the OnePlus 3 (£329) even though the OP3 boasts a better chipset, better UI and considerably more RAM, secondly Honor seems to fancy ripping us Brits off while in the US both devices are on sale for $399.
I have made my choice and already ordered my OP3

Shocked at the UK price, was hoping that the 64gb would be around that and the 32gb around £310, then we didn't even get the 64gb!

Sometimes, OEMs do some mistakes, this one is an example and the note 5 is another one.

Me too, great deal from Tele2 :good: If you exchange an old phone, could be any phone in any condition, you get 200 dollars discount. I exchanged an old Samsung GT-S5570 with a cracked screen worth maybe 5 bucks if you are lucky, but got 200 dollars of on the Honor 8 at Tele2 My friend exchanged a old flip-phone from the 90s and got his discount.

Does it feature the same signal booster as Honor 7 had for the European Version?

I saw blue 64gb in some russian eshop but I don`t know if it was official distributon. Here in czech rep. will be 64gb only gold for approx. 430€.
Vmall EU's customer service is almost as shocking as the price for the UK. I get that Honor is a rising brand but the justification to put up the price by £120 from the Honor 7 doesn't make sense.
I got fed up being messed around by VMall and cancelled my order and bought an OP3 just like the original poster.
I'm just wondering is there a way to get the phone from the likes of Oppomart and then flash a EU ROM? As the phone can be had for way less.
Got it for ~385€ in Czech Republic.
