Check Expansys USA -- they have the 'Lava Grey' (i.e.: black) version for $210, with free basic shipping. 'Natural aluminum' (i.e.: silver) version is s'thing like $30 more. I'm posting this reply in a hurry, so no links -- sorry.
n.b.: Expansys does not specify China (PRC) or Taiwan model, but it's easy to conflate the two countries as 'China'. I asked Expansys to check stock; they sent a fresh device photo, showing /all/ Google services installed.

Thank you for asking.
I just ordered mine because you asked and they replied.... Google Service does make a difference.
I wish they would release the official cover already and it would be perfect!

Hey, you're welcome! But then, I had to ask -- if it's the right model, that's a deal I couldn't pass up.
Do a solid and tap the 'Thanks' button for me, wouldya? Just starting out here, so I need the rep.

Expansys staff person posted a comment that it is "from China and does have Google Play."
I'm not sure what that means but I've ordered one and will find out.

I just received my n1 from Expansys.
I confirm that it does have the Google play store.
It came in Chinese but I changed the language.
The android version is 5.0.1 but it asked me to update the software as soon as I turned it on.. Downloading now.. Hopefully it's 5.1...

NOkia N1 taiwanese version only 257USD !
my friend helped me buy a nokia n1 in taiwan and its cost only 257 USD . is it cheapest ?
haha
My N1 from Expansys has Build number A5FM401. Neither the tablet nor the retail box nor the packaging was shrink wrapped. Is there a reliable way to determine whether it had the TW version with Google Play straight from the factory or whether the software was altered after it left the factory?

Well, I can say that I'm quite happy with the Taiwanese N1 I bought from Expansys USA. It arrived brand-new in factory packaging and after the usual set up (plus some extra time required to get around the initial language barrier) works great...best $210 I've ever spent on an Android device.

Here's what I can tell you, from personal experience.:
• A5FM401 is the factory-installed build for Nokia's Taiwan release of the N1. Shortly after first login, the device will download several OTAs, culminating in Android 5.0.2 (A5FM51C).
• With my N1, the shrinkwrap had been carefully cut likely to open the box for inspection as noted in Expansys' catalog (e.g.: to check for damage and/or a US-type power plug).
• The tablet itself still wore the factory's wrapping. I carefully examined the polythene under bright lights (think C.S.I.: Android !), but saw absolutely no signs of tampering.
• From talking to several people who own the Chinese (PRC) model, nobody in their right mind would go to the trouble of re-flashing one to make it look like the Taiwanese part.
BTW: when I asked Expansys to verify Google's apps, s'body in the warehouse kindly sent a pic of a freshly unboxed/booted Nokia N1. Maybe that's the one you got?
Hope this helps a bit.

I'd like to hear your results, for sake of curiosity. Meanwhile, mine stopped at Android v5.0.2 -- I'm told this is the current final release for Nokia's Taiwanese N1.
To date, only their Chinese (PRC) part has been upgraded to 5.1.1, but since that OTA rolled out just a few weeks ago, I guess there's still hope for the rest of us.

Good reviews, so far, plus I figure you can't go far wrong for $10.
I am happy with the Expansys unit as well, I was debating between the N1 and the new Asus zenpad 8.0 s which has the same processor and slightly better specs but costs more.. The N1 is much better looking and has stock Android which is a big plus.
I hope they will keep on updating it, eventually to Marshmallow, since after all it's stock Android...
Great tablet, I just wish I could find the official cover that doesn't seem to be available anywhere...

It's very helpful - thank you. The info about the build number suggests that the software is original. Someone here said their tablet was rooted, but I suspect they were mistaken. I missed the part in Expansys' catalog stating that they open the boxes for inspection, that makes it much less suspicious.
The tablet is impressive for the price. Build quality, thinness, performance, wireless specs, battery life. I guess that's why I'm questioning - because it looks like it falls into the "too good to be true" category.
Would love to buy a docking station that takes full advantage of the Nokia N1, whatever it offers from the Type C port out of the box or can be hacked. This press release for a dock reference design specifically mentions the N1 tablet, but I suspect because it was one of the earliest devices and not because the dock is optimized for the N1.

Yeah, I'd say he's simply wrong. And I'm a careful guy -- first thing I did after I got my new N1 running was to install AIDA64 (a free HW-analysis app; look for it in the Play Store). It confirmed that the device was not rooted.

Expansys append something like that ('Note that the box will be opened...') for a large number of listings. I guess we can assume they get their stock from a wide variety of sources and under varying circumstances.

LOL I know, right? This thing is just astonishing value for money -- a super device at an unbeatable price. Except for the disappointing camera and (so far) lack of Android v5.1.1, I'm 110% happy with my purchase.

Yep, that would be a neat accessory, for sure. Well, you never know; it's pretty clear Nokia see their future with Android devices, so maybe we can look forward to an upgraded 'N2' tablet, using the same shell.

Couldn't agree more.
The N1 is delightful in it's simplicity, with vanilla Android and elegant design. Nokia took the iPad Mini's basic look and improved it; rounding those famously 'chamfered edges' gives much better feel in the hand.

I've searched online and haven't had much luck finding a comparison of a rooted fire TV box and the many available android HDMI sticks/dongles/boxes that are based on the RK3188/RK3288 SOC platform.
I plan on cutting the cord from my cable company next month and want the best performance and app compatibility, I've found great deals on both options, but would like some feedback about the pros and cons of each.
If anyone has any helpful insight it would be gratefully appreciated!
The stick devices have unusable wifi and Bluetooth. I used a usb to Ethernet dongle and the device is cheaply made and overheats.sits in a drawer now. Not sure of box devices. Happy with ftv for 4 months now

Yeah I know the earler versions of the sticks had wifi issues but from what I have read the latest versions have resolved all of those issues.
Apparently I can't post links yet, but if you google CS928 RK3288 you will see which box I am considering.
Agreed. Mk3s and mk4 with mk4 based on rk3188. Riko magic remote purchased too. Remote came broken and Alibaba had 3 day return policy and I went away for weekend. and rikomagic people did not answer. 3 products purchased and complete disgust with that name brand. Buyer beware
Well you know what they say... you get what you pay for. This is cheap Chinese crap made with cheap Chinese garbage processors.

Okay thanks for the info. Riko Magic is not the brand I am considering RK3188/RK3288 are made by RockChip and are just the SOC (system on a chip) component of the overall device. The box I am considering had nothing at all to do with Riko Magic.
What I am really interested in is the performance difference in the Fire TV's Qualcomm Quad Core Krait 300 CPU and the Quad-Core Cortex-A17 CPU found in the RK3288 SOC and how they perform in the Android OS environment.

I just found one for $110 (http://dealsprime.com/mini-pc/cs928-android-4-4-tv-box.html). I'm not quite sure how that's twice as much... But the statement not only applies to actual price but the fact that you are either buying a quality product from an American company or some crap slapped together by some fly by night chinese company.

Yeah I can get a Fire TV for about $55 with a coupon. I'm not really concerned about the country of origin as opposed to the performance of the components. Thanks for your opinion, but I am looking for someone who might have first hand knowledge/experience with these two exact products.

I have the CS918S set top with the built in Camera and it is a solid performer. I also have a couple UG007B that work perfect and they are half the price of the FTV.
Even with good performance they still can't compete with the hardware in the FTV.
But with the A31 and RK3188 is you can easily find or make a ROM or make your own. I have done a couple of the sticks for friends with modified boot images and deodexed rooted systems.
I bought a minix X8-H at the same time that I bought a FireTV, one box for me and one for my folks. Overall it's a very nice unit and has been rock solid, which is better then my past experiences with the chinese boxes. It's not as buttery smooth as the FTV but it's more then adequate. Having 3 USB ports and an airmouse out of the box is nice as well.
The only big gap I found between the two is that the Netflix performance on FTV is far better. Even with many tweaks I could never get HD working on the Minix. That was enough for me to go with FireTV in the end.

I tried the Keedox® M8 Amlogic S802 Quad Core Cortex A9r4 2.0GHz. On paper it looks like it should compare well and was $85 at the same time the fire TV was on sale for the same. The M8 just wasn't as smooth so I went with the fireTV and returned the M8.
Qualcomm Krait300 (snapdragon600)/Areno320 processors beat Rockchip3188/Mali400 hands down.
In 3D performance up to 3 times faster, in general use little over half as fast as the FireTV.
All the top phones and tablets are based on nextgen snapdragon 800 or sgx in different variations.
It clearly seems to be the top SoC along with SGX(or apple)/PowerVR.
It also gives most performance per watt, RockChip isent really designed the same way that's why you don't see them in phones/tablets they use more power and run hotter.
.
Btw. I tested this with a few benmarking tools such as linpack, 3dmark, etc
Another strong appeal is feel, And it's first android box i've been able to call: a firm stable android-streaming platform. Ofcause it also has a very steady background with big key players and developers.

dont have a rk3288, but i have a rk3188 (and a rk3088).. vs firetv there is no competition, firetv wins in all aspects. hopefully they made huge improvements on rk3288 but i doubt it will be worth the usual chinese problems (bad antenas, bad roms, faulty hardware, no support, misleading hardware (selling you a rk3188 but actually getting a rk3188T which is a crappier made soc) etc...)
plus the firetv is actually cheaper (guess they want to buy the market XD )

If you add multi-touch select and custom color per-account to the stock OPO CM (AOSP) eMail client I'll give you the one off of mine. (never used it without a case and it's less than a week old currently).
The other thing I would like to see added is the option to block "Access Device ID" in the privacy settings. I see that the stock email client needs permission to access my device's ID and I neither understand why it would need that, nor want it to have permission to access it.
I only responded with those requests because I see you say you are learning coding. However, I have to assume it won't be too long until someone who's purchased a bamboo cover for their sandstone black model will offer to either give you theirs or sell it to you at a reasonable price.
Good luck and regards,

eBay or aliexpress. eBay will probably be quicker if you order from within your own country, but aliexpress will probably be cheaper (but from China). Keep in mind that you can order simply the back, or you can order it with the NFC antenna. Without the NFC it'll probably be under $10USD, but more like $30 for the one with NFC installed.

When I say code I mean like C# and Web Development, I've not done too much with android outside of compiling from source using git. The device id part I don't understand that either, I mean it's AOSP and unless it's sending out user data then it shouldn't be a privacy issue.

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?

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]

I have bought another non-original case and it is stupid that you can pull out stylus for example. Because of this I want to buy original. But it seems to be impossible.

I bought one recently directly from the online Verizon store. There's a verizon symbol in the corner, but it's stamped in, and black like the case, so it doesn't really stick out like some logos do.
It was only $10: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cachei-0nxwqb4J:https://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/samsung-book-cover-case-for-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition/+&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
It's not an amazing case, or anything, but I like it just fine. It wakes and sleeps well. The stand works well when used with it almost flat, but isn't very good for standing up. It can stand vertically, but it's a bit risky when it comes to the possibility of the magnetic spot sliding a bit and then collapsing.

When you look on eBay ask for a cover for the right tablet.The GT-N8000 is not the same as the SM-P600,SM-P605, or SM-P607. Any case which is made for the SM-P60× tablets will not fit the GT-N8000.

I don't know if you are still looking but I have one that works but isn't in the best of shape (my Note 10.1 was run over by a car). If you are interested and want to pay for shipping, you can have it.
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...

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!

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.

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
