but the website is android mini collectibles 01-12 series http://www.icellphonestore.com/Android-mini-collectibles-Series-1-12-Google-Android-Robot
I know Dead Zebra also sells them...but they're out of stock...so....lol
http://shop.deadzebra.com/products/Android-Mini-Series-02.html
Nice find on these!! I bought some on ebay a while ago. I paid almost $20 each for them, I could have practically bought the set instead of three for the same price....
Excuse me if this sounds rude or anything but the dealextreme ones look fake. From what I read, the ANDROID words are suppose to be in the back and are more indented. I've been trying to get the 1st series, but there's just so many fakes out there now. . . ..
OH yeah, the site from deadzebra is the official one, they are the ones that partner up with google to make it. They have a post to show how to spot a fake. I can't link it because I'm a noob though.
@kekoukela i think icellphonestore.com android mini collectibles is genuine !!

I bought one from this site on the 14th of March, and it came on March 31st.
1st series, and looks legit. "android" on the back and all.
But...I'm not super familiar with what is legit and what's a knockoff. Not that I care either. It's pretty cool regardless.

Trade your M9 for my Note 4 (AT&T)

Not sure if this is the right section. I apologize if it isn't.
Reason for selling: Bored w/ the phone as there is no root option yet. For any purists out there this is great phone and has been meticulously taken care of since day one.
Details:
Condition: Mint; Like New
- 32GB Galaxy Note 4 AT&T White
- Moshi Tempered Glass Screen Protector
- Grey Body Glove Case
- Zero Lemon 10000 mAh Case & Battery (about 2 days of battery life)
- Updated to most recent software (can downgrade if needed)
Looking for an AT&T Model. Color doesn't matter. PM if you have what I'm looking for and we can take it from there.
I'm not sure if they have a section here for this but...
Have you tried your luck on swappa? That may be a good option for you, idk. Best of luck

I checked Swappa briefly yesterday but it looks like you have to sell your phone and then buy one.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ UK owners thread

So just kicking this off the the UK folk.
What are your thoughts. Which network to consider. UK specific experiences. Best price hunt for launch date.
Order mine 64gb in gold, carphonewarehouse, coming next week at some point. Just hoping the battery life is as good as my 6 Plus or it will be going back and I'll get the 6S Plus instead.
Ordered a 64Gb Gold one from Carphonewarehouse too, I just hope it doesn't get screwed up like previous phone launch dates and shoddy parcel company deliveries I have experienced in the past. I never get why a launch date is always a Friday with Samsung, if it doesn't arrive on a Friday it usually means a LONG wait until Monday or Tuesday.
Very excited to get this phone.

When is it due to hit UK shops?
mine says 4 september from 3 ..64gb gold
blisspop 3.7.arter97 kernel 7.1. xposed framwork
I reluctantly ordered mine on EE in gold (32GB is all EE offer at present) with 10GB of data which supposedly should arrive on Friday 4th Sept. I currently have the Note3 and was holding out for the Note5 until Samsung dropped the bomb shell on us. I also have a Samsung Gear S which I love so I guess I've sort of bought into the whole Samsung Eco system.
I know I'm going to struggle with 32GB but I'm really hoping to be pleasantly surprised with the S6 Edge+
Seems like the gold version is the hot favourite. I wouldn't touch a gold one with a barge pole haha.
From some of the YouTube videos, the silver one looks the best. Going from past experiences fones4u or someone similar will get it exclusively in that colour. I don't get why all the colours can't be released at the same time. Early adopters will miss out regret and cuss Samsung.
Such an expensive phone though. Thinking about keeping an eye out on some European amazon sites for the silver one. Should be cheaper

I am certain the silver one is not for the European markets. The UK (afaik) is black or gold. All the YouTube reviews I have watched really praise how stunning the gold looks in particular. It's why I ordered one
Oh and Phones4U went bust a long time ago.

Same here mate. Went through EE and ordered the black version. The silver one is the one I wanted so gutted it isn't coming to the UK. My wife has just got the S6 Edge in gold and even though it looks nice, it isn;t the colour for myself. She got the clear view case in the same colour so it comes in handy as another compact mirror for when she does her makeup
I'd have liked to get the Note 5 as I too have a Note 3 at the minute. Had to order the S6 Edge+ as I can't go back to smaller screens. I've had a go on the S6 Edge and it seems like a great phone so I thought why not get the big screen version.

RIP Phones4U. The customer service was usually crap but they gave great deals and generally threw the kitchen sink in as well.
I'm not forum UK but im in Europe, Portugal.
I ordered mine today 32GB Gold. Hopefully it will be available on friday.
Is there a source where it says the silver is not coming to the UK?

Think they had to close because the networks didn't want their products sold by idiots who told any lie needed to get a sale.

People....i recommend you be patient & get the 64gb version if you possibly can as you will very likely regret anything less.
Guys I live in portugal and I just got my phone, it is so amazing +--+
It was supposed to be released only on 4 sept, but it was available today xd

When I was in the EE store I saw the silver version, which is the one I wanted. When I pre-ordered it they asked what colour I wanted between black or gold. I said silver, as it's on the stand and they said that it was a Samsung supplied unit and no indication of what the store could offer. On the 3 website, the only options are gold and black too. I want the phone sooner rather than later but I bet it works it's way into the country at a later stage from one of the providers.

I heard that they would do anything for a sale which normally meant the customer got some great monthly deals as well as freebies. In the end, it was their downfall.
I thought about getting the 64gb version but I'm tied to EE and they only do the 32....for now. I've checked what I have on my Note 3 from the internal 32 and the 16gb SD card and I think I can get away with the 32gb version. The biggest thing I have on my Note 3 is a Clockwork backup which is about 9gig. If rooting/ROMS do eventually come out for the Edge+ I'll just backup to my laptop.
@PAULO76 I ended up pre ordering the 64gb gold. Have a look at this mate. I have one and they totally rock

I've heard of them before but I never looked into them as I never needed one. I will be ordering one now haha.
On another note, I'm considering the gold version over the black now. Shame it's a finger print magnet. Guess I'll be comparing the 2 colours at the end of the week.

They are both fingerprint magnets from what I've seen mate. Its gonna have to be a slim back cover I think but it's hard at the moment because nothing is available here in uk. I'm keeping a close eye on the threads for links etc [emoji6]

Note 8 Special for Note 7 Users

I qualify for the special but I was wondering, do I pay the entire $930 bucks up front or do I only pay $505 up front? I can't afford the full amount! When I went to check out, it listed 930 bucks at check out even though I had a phone to trade in for the credit. Can anyone clarify please

This is not a Note 8 area, nor is it a Note 7 one either.
Please go to the Note 8 or Note 7 areas to post. I am sure they will probably have such info posted, as they are on top of things about such devices. This area keeps tabs on the Note 8.0 Tablet.

US Pre-order Thread

I pre-ordered the OnePlus 8 Pro with 12 GB RAM + 256 GB Storage in UltraMarine Blue. Along with my pre-order I got OnePlus Bullets Wireless Earbuds and a OnePlus Warp Charge 30 WireLess Charger, both free. Apparently I was lucky to get my pre-order in early because I read that they sold out within 10 minutes. If the phone is as good as I expect it to be, I'll be selling my S20 Plus 5G on Swappa.
I couldn't get my order in the ridiculous OnePlus 2 minute online out of stock window...
Got my order in, was picked up by fed ex today with delivery this Tuesday

The preorder was a disgrace! I had one in my cart and then it wasnt available. It was 9:02am PST - Oneplus probably lost my business over this, especially without mmwave...

So far the phone is blazing fast. That wireless charger is absolutely amazing. You can see a huge difference in the screen compared to the OP7 Pro, as well as overall speed. My phone was delivered yesterday (April 17th).
Well here's my launch day story...... After watching the launch day event, counting down the minutes, then seconds, on launch day, I ordered my first OnePlus device! This is, IMHO, the best, fastest, most advanced device ever created. I got the Ultramarine 12/256, wireless charger and ear buds and even included the 24 month extended warranty. Wow, was I excited! Unfortunately, it has turned into a nightmare. The order still shows "Transaction in Processing" after I was told by my bank the payment was canceled by OnePlus! Not only am I being told that I missed out on the launch day promotion, but I am not able to pay for the order still processing! I am really disappointed in the whole process and really hope OnePlus can fix this. I am sure items may be out of stock, but I am willing to wait as long as it takes to get this device. Please help!

The op called it a pre-order so I went with it and i was on top of it, actual stock must have been really low...
Pre-ordered UltraMarine Blue 12/256. Excited as much as I was for the 6, 6T, 7Pro. A bit more pricey than usual (of course) but hopefully it's a justified increase.

Stay on them with this. If it were me I'd be arguing that I deserve the launch box (items at least) when this is worked out. No way would I rest until I got what I felt I deserved or they just flat out denied it continuously. Wish you the best here.
I managed to get mine yesterday, now I just have to be patient for development ?
I'm interested in buying a one plus 8 pro. I enjoy a crisp screen and a good camera. I like my pixel 4 xl but the screen seems dull.
Is anyone coming from a pixel 4 xl to the 8 pro? How are the camera images

Hey sorry for a bit off topic, but I've read different things regarding screen protector..... Is there a pre applied protector? Some people said there was a protector included in the paperwork, but not applied.
Thanks!

I'm debating doing the same thing. I think I'll need to see how good GCam is before I either order locally or get it shipped over here.

Scratch that, the 2 in the box aren't screen protectors. I'm talking to OP support and they said unless you add one to your order you only get a pre-applied one. Lucky for me, I also don't have a pre-applied one.

Oh wow that's a shame. With the pre applied one, we at least get time to find a good one like Whitestone dome, etc.
There wasn't one to order anyway. I get mine tomorrow so we'll see. Thanks for the update

You should all appreciate being abke to order and receive you 8 P outside of the US. Not only are we later without anything free stuff, we are having to deal with idiots working for OnePlus who don't know their A__ from a whole in the ground.
I tried both the chat online and calling on a phone. The latter didn't really know enough where and how to purchase over here, but the online people were total idiots.
A lot of it is beaning able to speak English - but not understand it. If they are going to sell now overpriced phones, I think it is reasonable to expect competent service. Compared to Samsung and others - they live on a different planet.
Sale date changed from 8 days away, to 2 days away!!
Exactly what version of the 8 Pro will we be getting - the global ?
Gotta love it. I love in NY. Shipped from NJ yesterday. For some reason it's in Tennessee now. WTF? Still says I'm supposed to get it tomorrow
