Thought I'd post this in case anyone in the Greater Vancouver Area (Canada) might want a dock at a discount. The Metrotown Bestbuy has at least 2 more for $49.99. Might be on sale at the other Bestbuys, but I don't know. The sale price tag was printed on the 27th, and I bought it yesterday. There was no posted end date for the sale. Who knows, maybe they're trying to get rid of them.
I wasn't planning on getting one, but I wanted another adapter for work and when I saw this, I figured I could take the stock adapter to work and use this at home.
Now that I have it, I actually like it quite a lot. Besides Webtop, it has a second mode just for viewing pictures, videos, and playing music. Comes with a small remote just for that mode.
Works well with my DiNovo keyboard in webtop. Also neat that it becomes a kind of touchpad/keyboard if you don't have any input devices at hand.
And for a phone to be able to do flash over my 1080p tv and do it quite smoothly is pretty impressive to me.
I'm actually much more tempted to get the lapdock after playing with this.
you have a link? maybe its in the flyer for your area? i just checked bestbuy.ca and its listed at 99.99.

No, it's neither posted on their website or anywhere else that I saw. It was just by chance that I happened to be there. The yellow price tag on it says something like, "49.99 - 50% off original price of $99.99". This is why I don't know whether the other Bestbuys have it on sale, since it isn't posted.
Since I only saw two at the Metrotown one, if you want it, I'd suggest you go as soon as possible.
*edit*: Ha, oops, I just noticed you're in Ottawa, so obviously you're not going to go as soon as possible...
I bought 1 and there is still 1 left at this particular Best Buy (Burnaby Metrotown).
i just picked one up yesterday, the sales rep was surprised to see it on sale too. thanks maledyris

Nice! So I guess that means it's on sale across the country. I find it kind of unusual that they don't advertise it, either in the flyers or on the website.
Hey guys, I've been trying to find the Griffin Powerdock for our phones, but it has been out of stock for months and I haven't seen any recent posts about its status. Does anyone know where I could still get one of these? I thought I saw a post or two about it being recalled due to an issue, but didn't see any real consensus on if that was true or not. Any help would be awesome!

Bump for replies
I asked Moto customer service for an ETA on the Powerdock a couple of times and got nothing. I was lucky enough to catch one for sale on Ebay.
You can buy mine off of me. I don't use it anymore as my OtterBox case prevents the phone from docking with it. I should still have the original packaging as well
I picked one up at the end of March when it was on sale. I just took a look on Moto's site and it shows in stock. Here is the link:
http://www.motorola.com/us/accessor...y-Griffin/griffin-navigation-dock-moto-x.html
It is also available on Griffin's site.
http://store.griffintechnology.com/vehicle-dock-for-moto-x
You can also find it on Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Vehicle-Dock-...=1403121747&sr=8-2&keywords=griffin+car+mount
Another place it can be found is on ebay.

We're actually looking for the PowerDock (http://www.motorola.com/us/accessor...o-X-by-Griffin/griffin-power-dock-moto-x.html), not the vehicle dock. Thanks though!

Yeah. Just realized you were talking about the Powerdock. You can try one of the ones from RND Power Solutions. I've heard good things about it. Here are links to 2 different models.

They were in stock at their normal $39.99 price, but I didn't have the spare cash last month. Now they're gone. Not out of stock. Just gone. So, I'm in the market for two (home and work).
I just ordered one off Amazon, but it was from a new seller with zero feedback. If this were Ebay, I wouldn't have bothered, but Amazon's policies are very customer friendly, so it's worth the risk to me.
If anyone else wants to part with their (gently) used dock, let me know and we'll work something out. I do NOT have a PayPal account anymore as I've divorced myself from PP/Ebay, but I can send/receive money through Venmo/Square/Google and possibly others.
Although for the Chinese market, I would love to get my hands on one here in NYC to see how it turned out compared to their Winblows based devices.
I got it ... Its nice in look ... But I just found that the headset is not working ... I just tried to use iPhone headset but doesn't !
i got one.
@ran816 the headset is working after an update (a couple of updates ago)
Does anyone know where to import one from? I really want one but I don't want to pay $450 off ebay for one.

I agree...I'd like to get one as well but buying it on eBay would be a ripoff. Anyone have any good info on how to get one in the US for closer to cost?
I'd like to get rid of my Nexus 7....it's just too small....

Yeah, I tried asking all of the sellers if they would accept any offers but they all said no. I'm willing to pay 300+ shipping which is reasonable considering that's a 20% profit for them give or take. I just can't justify that much of a markup for something without a good reason. It should he released in Spain/UK soon anyway.
I had a Nexus 9 but I wasn't a big fan. I liked my Nexus 7 2013 more than the 9 by far. I used to also have a LG GPad 8.3 and I loved it until I broke it. I'm hoping this will be a good tablet to fill the Gpads slot now that I'm tablet less (unless my Nexus 6 is a tablet )
Another post in N1 general referred to tinydeal:

Where do they ship from? Are they a reputable vendor? I realize other members have bought one from them but I'd rather be on the safe side
I bought a Nokia N1 about a week ago from China. Already got 4 system updates. Out of the box was 5.0.2. Latest build number is A5CN410.
The build quality is unbelievable for the price range. Not to mention the screen. Only one issue, no Google Play Services, yet.
I bought the nokia n1 on this site: smartophone.com
it works very well, but still not google apps !
Nokia N1 ,Chinese Edition.
I've got one ,but it sucks by now,'cause it ships without google service,a lot of apps works incorrectly on it .
I bought mine on Amazon...Google Play Store right out of the box. Be sure you get the Taiwan version!
Loving it so far!
Just would like to know if anyone is already using this phone ?
I ordered the ZTE Axon 7 (4GB) on Amazon - never got the gray one...
Thought about buying the Lonovo Zuk pro2 but don't like no sd-slot !
So I ordered the Asus with 6GB / only 64GB version is available right now.
Should be delivered in apr. 8 days.
My 256gb 6gb Ram version was mailed to me yesterday... Waiting for it though it may take around 5 days....
Waiting SUX!!!!!
Yes I got mine on Saturday.
Really loving it so far

Where did you buy the 256GB version?? US?
Sent from my SM-N930T using XDA-Developers mobile app
I have it !
I came from ZF2 to this. Purchased from Taiwanese EBay seller. Deluxe ZS570KL ,820, 64GB
Loving it. Disabled all the bloat until root is provided. This things so fast you don't even know its there anway. I'm a huge fan of vanilla, so Installed Google Launcher. Perfection.
CONS so far:
- Sim cover is loose fitting. This seems to be widespread - im tempted to put a pinhead blob of bluetack in there, as its the door, not the tray. Such a small issue.
- Its so well made its slippery, similar to the HTC10. Case is on the way so wont be an issue after that
- Understandably, Battery life is a < day. I have so many chargers around, its not an issue for me.
PROS so Far:
- Fast
- Screen is gorgeous.
- Photo quality is amazing.
- It has not spontaneously exploded in my pocket in close proximity to my balls
- Overall, as a package, I'm super happy. Its a flagship killer.
My one missing feature would be wireless charging.... but there's so much inside this small package already, that I understand why its not.
Quite happy to help with any root/bootloader/rom projects when someone something gets underway in the forums.
Cheers, Mike
I've got a Snapdragon 821, 6gb ram, 256gb rom version as well.

Seller on ebay... also got the tempered glass protector and the flip case...
The flip case is stuck on with the sticky stuff they have on phone holders... It is an ASUS case...
Don't have a problem with the sim cover, in really tight - 6gb 256gb Snapdragon 821 version..
Case is great, it sticks on well and no issues with it as yet.
Very quick, no real problems there.
Amazon app store keeps force closing - old version of Amazon appstore. Downloaded new one and everything works fine...
Otherwise no problems, though funnily enough I haven't actually called anyone yet...
64GB/6GB/820 Was delivered this morning. Took only a day and half to get to me!!! Was very impressed! ASUS nailed it. Beautiful phone! Even more beautiful in person. I was extremely impressed. CAN'T WAIT TO GET A ROOT/CUSTOM ROM on this thing!
@ GodKingKnight: Where did you buy ?
I did not receive mine....same as with the ZTE...no luck with those new phones.
821 6gb 256gb

Did you receive it? I am trying to decide if I should order it from Amazon or from Asus website. Please let me know. Thanks!
No, no shipping info either...
I asked Asus store USA but they won't deliver to Europe. I should get some one from within the USA to ship to and then send to me.
Only Asus store where the 5.7" ones are listed is the Spain one, but none is on stock.
hey any comparisons with the one plus 3?

You could order it from ebay, this is what I did.
I ordered the 820/6GB/64Gb variant straight from the ASUS store on Amazon. It comes with US warranty but the expected ship date isn't until Nov 22.

I did that too... I am thinking of ordering it from bhphotovideo.com which says shipping on Nov 10, or Newegg which says Nov 1. I like Amazon because of ease of returns in case something is wrong...

I know I'm a little bit late, but this phone is keeping me awake at night,... just gotta have it. Been looking everywhere but it seems that it's sold out.
Maybe someone here knows a place that is still selling this beast. Thanks in advance!
I just purchased a replacement last month on Alibaba. Be prepared for an extremely long wait of 1 - 2 months for delivery due to covid.
I bought mine from TradingShenzhen as that was recommended to me when I was searching where to buy. They still seem to have some.
