Hi guys I need some advice here, I am going to go to Guangzhou, China this Sept '12.
I am wondering whether there is any place to buy One X in Guangzhou? I have done some researched and I found this place called Galaxy Computer Plaza. Is it available there? And what shop can be trusted (as I've read that they sold some imitations)? And how much does it cost there?
Or maybe I should take a ferry and go to Hongkong? How much does it cost in Hongkong and where can I get it?
Btw how does this device compare to Samsung Galaxy S3? I prefer the screen on this device though, it's fantastic! =)
Please advice, thank you very muchhhhh! =)
In HK you can buy from Fortress or Broadway, hopefully you can navigate their website for pricing.
The HK version is different to most of Asia, but it might be the same as Guangzhou as there are some Cantonese speakers there, too.
My HK version is 1.29.708.something.

Hi everyone.
There are a lot of threads about appearing GN in UK, US, Australia and so one.
Does anybody know when GN will appear in The Baltics country (Latvia, Litva, Estonia)? Does anybody know whether any terms of his release? In which stores it will be selling in this countries? How much it will be cost there? I'm interested in stores located in these countries. please do not offer Handtec, Clove, ComputerUniverse. If you got some links to the stores in this countries where GN will be selling- post it here please.
I'm from Estonia and as far as I know it is not sold in Estonia. In fact no Google phone has ever been sold here, so there is not much hope.

I'd like to test phone before buying. Don't want to send it back to the store if I find dead pixels or other bugs on it. It takes a lot of time to send it back and wait for new phone.

It is unlikely that Galaxy Nexus will be sold in Estonia, however it might still happen now that Samsung is trying to make a bigger push with it by naming it 'Galaxy'. It's not just a native-Android type of thing anymore. But Samsung will still want to push their own main handsets in these markets and that might get in the way.
The best bet would be to order online. There is a small chance of something being wrong with the device, but looking at the device in store is not really the way to detect them. At best you can only detect dead pixels there and those are rare on Super AMOLED screens.
I guess that if you want to be an early adopter, you have to take some risks. We have and as a result we have this awesome volume bug.
What is the baseband radio version and build version on Estonian Galaxy Nexus phones (stock ROM) ? Anybody can tell me that?
Thanks!
Hello, can anybody tell me the size of both boxes?
here a link that compare them:
https://picasaweb.google.com/107138125722399503006/GNEX?authkey=Gv1sRgCL2zqoO8icyOsAE&noredirect=1
*or is there a way to know from S/N or other number on the box, if it made for UK or other Europe country? I just want to be sure that I buy the variant that sold for Europe, so I would not need to buy adapter for UK plug, as I live in Israel, I asked local shops, they all say it's Europe variant with EU charger, but most sell them in sealed boxes, so I cant be sure what inside, not even sure if they can allow me to open box before I pay $$, thank you all for help.
You could always buy a usb adapter if you don't get the right plug?

I know I can, but don't want to, just want to be sure that I buy original Europe package, and not the UK one that is bigger, so any one can measure the boxes for me?
Seriously what is the world coming to these days.

Hi,
I'm considering getting a note 10.1 2014, and may have the chance to pick one up in Hong Kong in the next few months. I've never bought a gadget from another country before though - and wondered if anyone can advise me on the implications of this, whether it affects usability or if there are any other reasons it's not a good idea.
Many thanks,
Andii

I've bought tons of Samsung devices from other countries for use in the U.S. My N10.1-14 is from Latin America. The biggest downside is you'll give up your warranty completely unless you send it back to HK for repair. I've stayed away from Asian imports because Western market devices allow you to interchange s/w whereas some of the Eastern devices don't. Maybe someone from Asia can offer more insight.
You need to make sure what you bought! They also have many "smuggle" from europe, and US. Which most of the US model is "14 days return" item. (I guess europe is the same but I dont know their policy.) Yes smuggle is cheaper.
If you buying HK model, then you dont care this. but if you want to buy the smuggle product, please note that some of them may change the original bettery, or is used item. To ID it, is check the SIM card slot, and USB port. If is new then good to go. For bettery, I don't know how to check is real or fake.
Hey guys,
Has anyone here bought or had anything to do with Aliexpress? I want to buy an HTC One M8 my self, but I come across different models, which are usually 16/32GB EU and 16/32GB US version. for example: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Unlo...G-WIFI-Quad-Core-5-0-Dual-4MP/1993568822.html
Does anyone know what is the difference between them? Could I still use the US version in Europe? US version is cheaper and has more space (16GBvs32GB).
And if anybody bought from there, what is your experience, was everything okay?
Thanks in advance
useful
Yeah, I want to know too, as prices are significantly lower than ebay, like 20% off
did anyone bought from there?

Read through the feedback, though stars are high. Couple of them are trying to change the faulty devices they received (which is gonna take lot of time). Also, there could be problem with the antenna not working for US LTE bands. By the way, US CDMA (Verizon/Sprint) won't work on this. Also, if it comes with SIM locked version, you will have to do all the research and work (saw recently in M8 forum). Maybe contact the seller and know product ID, network bands etc
This phone interests me, Its on the Samsung UK site at £329 but thats all I can find in the UK. Its a UK model so obviously released in the UK yet no one is selling it anywhere, Its actually £100 cheaper than the A71. Even Sammobile has no firmare for it M515F which is the European version shows no firmware. Kinda weird, its like it exists yes but no one knows it exists apart from Samsung and its actually a bargain compared to A51 and A71
Let me know of you find it! I am also looking at this phone as an option but seems to be only available in Germany and in India. I am Colombia so not sure if it will ever go on sale here
