Hi
What you have in the Box when you unpacked your device next to the device?
I got the Z1 Compact, Headphones and the Charger nothing more.
I saw in an unpacking video a OTG cable and a display shatter
From Carphone Warehouse in the uk there was
Phone
Charger
USB cable
OTG cable
Screen protector film, cloth and squidgee
Headphones
Not bad, really.

Here in Sweden we only get the phone plus charger and USB cable, kinda sucks when others get a lot more... :crying:
The only options for extras was to get a pair of Sony DR-BTN200M if you preordered from the Sony online store, or preorder from a vendor called Cyberphoto and get a gift card for 500 SEK (~$77).
I went with the latter as it's basically getting the phone cheaper (they were already 100 SEK cheaper than Sony and delivered faster anyways...)

Depends where you buy it from. Carrier? Webstore? Regular electronics store? Luckily, you can get really cheap OTG adapters on Ebay, Amazon etc. You can get one for a couple of bucks. The screen protector is another story, since they tend to be a little more expensive, but that's life!

I received the same as him, bought from Handtec.co.uk though.
@dtosun I didn't pay any VAT or any taxes on this phone for that matter. However I'm from Australia not USA. But for something of this value, I doubt your customs would make a fuss over this purchase.
Did anyone get a 16gb Samsung sd with it? Mine had one but I had already bought a 32gb,wasn't expecting it.

I'm in the same boat too. Pre-ordered from clove, only paid for the device and shipping. There was no trouble from US customs.
I had checked against amazon uk too but there they charge for the device, shipping, AND import fee. I have no idea why amazon needs to charge an import fee or why clove can get away without. *shrugs*
im also living in Sweden, and get just phone, USB cable, charger...

It is Micro HDMI to HDMI.
I found the cheapest to be a 1 footer for 11$ with free shipping from Brooklyn on ebay. Also, if you use Bing cash back, you can get 8% off (88 cents ). I would post links, but i cant.
I just searched for Micro HDMI on ebay and came up with plenty of options for $10 or less.

I couldn't believe this but, I was at a verizon store yesterday asking about the hdmi cables and another customer overheard me. He pulled me aside and told me that you can get at lowes in the satellite dish dept. He said you could get a 12 foot cord for half of what verizon charges. I'm going to head over there shortly to find out if it's true.
Update... If lowes has them I didnt see them. they had regular hdmi cables but nothing for micro usb. I think the guy misunderstood what I was looking for.

Buying non-oem from china means it'll work for a month then it breaks. Long run you're gonna spend a lot more. Avoid eBay spend a few bucks more and get something reliable.

Purchased on the Thur. 18th received Mon. 22nd.
Hope this helps

Monoprice.com sells them pretty cheaply but if you need one now, the T-Mobile stores (Limited / Corporate - not sure about the Kiosks) have an L-shaped USB DATA cable for $10.
BEWARE! Some USB cables are for charging only. It has come to my attention that certain stores such as Radio Shack, etc have been selling $20 USB cables that do charging only. This is likely not intentional, it's just due to inexperienced staff.
For example, this caused someone to come to me and ask why they couldn't mount their phone to their computer. Well, you can't if the cable doesn't support it. Make sure it's a data cable and it will do both before buying.

if you need one fast, try going to the tmobile store and ask if they have any extra vibrant usb cables (or any other micro usb cable) in the back. say you would pay for it,but u need it quick because your cat chewed yours up. usually they wont charge. worked everytime for me. i did it to get headphones and cables for 3 yrs =)
tmo has them for 15 bucks. just bought one the other day. it wa n the mytouch slide section - dont matter its the same cord.

I buy all kinds of USB cords off of Amazon. I bought 4 BB OEM cords for 60 cent a piece and they all shipped to tether for 2 bucks (they were only 3 feet though) . And I got a 6ft cable for 2bucks free shipping. I would try there first. I ordered them all on Monday got them by Wed. The Bb cords came from NJ not sure where the other one came from.

To the OP, I can't recommend any specific cable to you, but I do have some experience with some of those "OEM chargers" that are often advertised on Amazon. I ordered 2 of them off amazon, and both of them were not actually OEM chargers and they both barely worked. One didn't even charge my phone (emailed the seller and got a refund, but it's the principle), and the other one had a faulty tip that didn't sit tight in my phone. The only thing I can suggest is being careful, sorry I can't link you a cable. Hope you find one.

I have bought many cables from digitalkynectonline on Ebay. The cables have held up very good. I have bought 6ft and 10ft cables and they are reasonably priced. The ends are molded unlike some of the cheap cables you get on ebay.The cord is heavier than than alot to and seems to take alot of abuse. The ends seem to fit in the phone nice and tight.
I have putchased the cheap ones off of amazon. Only use prime. Most work for several months. Expensive ones seem to work as well as the cheap ones. If I get one that does not work I ship it back at no cost. For $2 or $3 dollars a cable it is worth it.

I know this might seem out of left field, but Motorola's MicroUSB cables have always been incredibly reliable for me. They're made tough and any deep operations I may do (S-OFF, adb sideloading, etc) work flawlessly with them. They're not the perfect price like at monoprice.com but if you don't care about price and just want quality, Moto ain't too shabby.

I ordered one to test it out and I love it. I already ordered another one for the nightstand.
$19, no tax and free shipping. It took about 2 weeks to get to me but for the price I'm ok with that.
I'm not sure about charging time but it doesn't seem slow. It only comes with a usb cable so if you need a power plug for an outlet then you will need to supply your own.
I've only used it caseless so far as the cases I ordered are taking their sweet time coming in.
I didn't think I would like wireless charging that much but ... yeah, I like it alot.
I think its better to add a few bucks and get this: http://www.amazon.com/Okeler-Wireless-Charging-Charger-Samsung/dp/B00EXLZIF4/ref=pd_rhf_ee_p_d_7

Round or rectangle, its just a personal preference.
I wouldn't mind a small super shallow one for my carholder.
Yea..or. You can buy the Nokia DT-900 Qi Plates from a known company with history for $25 shipped new in box on ebay all day long.
And unlike either of those it comes with both a AC Adapter and cable and does not ship from China.
Shhhh, don't tell anyone but they are all probably made in china.

I work for AT&T and the Nokia DT-900 is currently 50% off. It's not advertised and I didn't even know about it until I scanned it and saw it. Lucky me I get an added 40% discount. I'm not into wireless charging, but for only $15 I'll take it!
Getting back to the Lerway... I own one and it's a pretty decent charger. Not too finicky about positioning and appears to charge as fast as hardwired. It's actually a rubberized plastic which I didn't realize from the pictures, this compliments the N5 quite nicely.
But, if you can get a Nokia for 5 bucks more, don't be stupid, go for the Nokia.
I have two Nokia Qi chargers, one at work and one at home. They're great with the Nexus 5, no problems at all.
ONE WARNING THOUGH: The DT-900 use a proprietary charging cord. Not micro USB. Don't get the DT-900 for use in your car, it won't work!
They make a car charger, with a one piece cord that plugs into a car cigarette charger, but that is the CR-200 and will cost you more than the on-sale prices people have posted.
I have mentioned it few times now but the one in eBay is 10 dollars and change and works great . nice packaging too and ships fast . that's what I use every night.

Xiaomi doesn't add a QC 3 charger because of costs. I use a normal charger here, not the one in the box. Charges fast enough for me.
charging is extremly fast...from 14% to 100% cca 1h15min. Fast enough for me

Maybe if the device was off I could have save some time more.
Instead it was on and I was not using it.
It become pretty hot I could use it to iron a shirt.
Why people have so much hurry?
Is it worth spending extra money to gain...how much 5, 10 minutes?
How much more thermal stress does it put on the battery (which is not removable!) and on other precious components?

I'm from Slovenia and I also ordered from Top One Digital on AliExpress choosing DHL. Delivery in 12 days, no customs, no tax.
Then I additionally ordered QC 3.0 charger from UGreen. Works really well and had EU plug. It also comes with either Type C or micro USB cable. Choose the correct one when placing your order. I will also buy a nylon braided Type C cable from Nillkin because AFAIK it's the only one that supports 3A charging current which is more than the standard 2.4A that QC 3.0 uses for charging. And it's also a very nice cable.

If anyone wants to Buy from xiaomi online store on aliexpress, u just have to have much pqtience as it takes sooo long to get to u..
Same here, ordered my Grey 4/128 on Friday, marked as shipped on Monday morning but status is still "Packed for picking up".
It's not the sellers fault, it's the busiest time of the year and I'm sure it's crazy over there. Would be good to receive it before Christmas but I'm prepared for it to arrive before new year (15 working days).
Service from the seller (Top One) has been very good so far.
Looks like I may have to spend quality time with my family over Christmas, rather than playing with my new phone all day. Booo!

i like it more then stock one, also because i have to use an extra plug to use in europe.
With the blitzwolf i charge from 30 -> 100 within 20 minutes
So you can decide yourself
Same here, ordered Mi5s grey 4/128 at 6, Shipment information received by DHL since Friday, December 09. This is waiting for pickup.
It's sellers fault also, in China they use DHL HK because it's much more cheaper to export from there.
For that they don't request DHL for pickup, they have agents reponsable to deliver the packages at Hong Kong DHL offices.
This freight forwarder agent, could be a person or a company, there are thousands individuals and companies in china just doing that, and the quality of service varies from none to high quality.
So, i'm not saying christmas have not something to do with delays, but until the package is with DHL, i could only blame Top One for it's decisions.
The truth is, i've probably choosed the best and more expensive distribuitor in the world, and i'm totaly dependent of a mediocre man in the middle at a christmas attack. LOL

I havent tried it and couldnt really help u with ur exact question. Anyways, Aukey seems like a good brand for qc3.0 (according to what ive heard) plus well pricing and amazon i believe
For people waiting for Christmas delivery via European Union Express (myself included) - in addition to delays at HK there have been flight delays and cancellations at London airports due to heavy fog over the last two days, so you may have to wait a little longer.
Guys, my phone is in my country and i saw something like "customs status updated" is that any bad news? Am i going to pay tax? Or idk how to check if i got any tax on The phone
