The Razr is coming soon to India and the price has been fixed at Rs 33,990/-
No word on the exact date of availability yet but i guess if the price is out then the main distributors would have received their stocks already...
Does anyone have any info about the exact release date of Razr in India?

Wiki:
The phone will be launched in India on the 18 November, 2011 at a price of INR33,990.[4]
I am waiting for the prices to drop a little, considering my past Android experience...
I hope that is just the MRP.
I am expecting discounted prices to be around Rs.32k initially and then Rs.30K once the dust has settled.
This morning I was talking to a dealer here in Pune and he had not even heard about the phone. He said there was little to no interest in Motorola phones and that he would get one only on a confirmed order.
Motorola has a lot of work to do here in India to get some shelf space again.

The Bombay scene is quite different dude...any new smartphone, irrespective of the brand, sells like a hot cake..HTC, SE, Moto even the damn Karbon and other ****y brands, u name it and they have it...I can suggest a couple of stores if you gonna come towards Bombay...ALpha, Anupam stores(though I personally had a bad experience, not with the phone but with the staff) etc...
It should drop around 28k in the 2-3 month according to my guess...but you never know...

I went for a long walk to my local Croma.
When I enquired with the Sales Person if they had the Motorola Razr available, he just looked at me with a blank face. I told him it was a new android phone, still blank face, I then just walked away.

The thing is a slight green tint dosent bother me that much...Im totally sold on the design, call quality, build quality and materials used in this phone and each and every review has praised these points...I seriously hate the build quality of the GSII and im sure the Galaxy nexus will be no different...i want an android which actually looks and feels like a high end phone and i dont see anything topping the razr for atleast the next 6 months...Plus i know Im in a serious minority but i absolutely hate the Ice cream sandwich interface and Roboto font....IMO Gingerbread rocks and the Razr would be the best Gingerbread phone...))
PS : Forgot to mention that the worst thing according to me about this phone is the larger than normal bezel which was going to be a deal breaker for me..but after watching the phone several times i kind'a got over it..)

Every Best Buy in GA shows "unavailable" but a store I called said 2 of them still had them. They said it's not showing as discontinued but they don't know when more will come in. Did I miss out?

To be honest, I'm not sure. The price did drop a couple of months ago to $299, and they sold like crazy. I'm not sure what HTC's plans are with it, but I've heard that BB stores may show 1 in stock, but that may be the floor model. I don't know if HTC really knows what to do with it, but there has been Honeycomb leaks and such, so time will tell if they officially release HC for this device.
The plot thickens.....I called 3 Best Buy stores and got 23 different answers. Yes I'm being sarcastic. One store though said "it's discontinued because of poor sales". I called Corporate and they said it has been pulled for the "sale" tomorrow. Whatever that means.

I would think if HTC was going to dump it, the recent update would of never happened. Best Buy is going to ruin my Christmas. So what if I wasn't good this year? My money is good!

I'm not surprised, they don't know. There were poor sales because the price was over $500 for it, so since other tabs were around $299, that's a no brainer. I'm not sure what they mean by pulled for the sale either...? I would think that if they had stock, the thing would sell great, but who knows? It sounds like Best Buy doesn't know either.

Jury is out on that, there's been 3 leaks, so there's something going on there...
I was worried that the $299 price drop was an indication that BB and HTC were clearing stock as they discontinued the device. Looks like this may be the case, and the new price was too good to be true. The fact that HTC's 10.1" tablet is also waaay overpriced suggests that the price drop wasn't an acknowledgment that HTC's pricing structure is unrealistic. And all this leads me to believe that HTC will probably end up having to exit the tablet market altogether. Oh, well, there's always ASUS and Samsung.

The following Forbes article speculates that Black Friday will being tablet market dominance by Apple, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble, spelling "doomsday" for all other tablet manufacturers.
http://www.forbes.com/sites/terokuittinen/2011/11/22/black-friday-tablet-doomsday-for-many-phone-vendors/
Maybe a bit extreme, although I see the point that Amazon is going to shake up the tablet landscape in the coming months. I expect at least Samsung to hang tough for some time. And HTC seems to be still in the fight, at least for the short term, with a 10.1" quad core tablet in the works:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-57326923-251/quad-core-htc-quattro-tablet-details-leaked/
The Quattro may help explain the demise of the Flyer. Even though its not the same 7" form factor (which I really like), it would seem unwise for HTC to keep 3 tablets in the lineup, if none are selling too well. And with the Flyer already 6 months old, its not surprising to see it drop from the lineup.
I'm not buying the Forbes article's take on tablets as a whole, but I suspect it's on target as far as HTC goes. HTC made a mistake in pricing the Flyer at $500. It was also a mistake not to have a 10" tablet to market at the sane time. Had HTC priced the Flyer at $400 and had a 10" tablet out at $500 they might have had a shot.
But I do think that the Forbes article's post-mortem on Samsung is way premature. The Nook Tablet and the Fire are going to shake up the market this Christmas, but consumers are not going to settle for tablets with such limited functionality that are tied so closely to one vendor's ecosystem.
I bought all of the HTC Flyers. That's why there's none left..Muhaahahahahaaa
I was in Best Buy yesterday and asked about the flyer and was told that it is being cleared out because a new HTC was being released next month, but I really do not believe that, as for the Flyer I know of a place that has over 786 of them to sell, it is a good place to buy from ,I have purchased from them many times because they are here in my town and I can go to their outlet, http://www.techforless.com/cgi-bin/tech4less/HTCFLYERP512
The term open box means that they open up the boxes and check out the contents to make sure they are in good shape and working order, that way they can sell it at a reduced price. Plus you can get a extended warranty from them also, believe me they have great stuff and well worth the price which is much better than Best Buy.

Great info, thanks moe!
I live in GA and got one at the beginning of the month at a BestBuy Mobile shop at the mall.
I just don't understand if they're supposedly clearing them out, why would they raise the cost of the Scribe pen back to $79.99?
Well I think its a safe bet that HTC is not manufacturing any more Flyers. The only question is how much stock is still floating around

Ok but why the update on 11/14? To support the existing Flyers I suppose?
Yeah, support.
It's cheaper to do a production run of a million or 2 than to start and stop assembly lines. So HTC probably produced all they wanted in May - June and are just selling what remains. That's typical.
My Best Buy still has a display model set up. Maybe they finally have the HC update done so they pulled remaining stock, and are repacking them with HC ROMs so no one gets one without it? I know it is probably a long shot but you never know.

I like the optimism. Lets say ICS instead and shoot for the stars!
I went to BB yesterday and the managers told me that they are not discontinued, but that the corporate store would not sell them any more for some unknown reason, but they do plan on selling it again once they get some more stock. She emphasized that it is not discontinued.

This why Apple exceed in the consumer relationship..
Still No confirm date when the 32GB will be back in stock.
Still no news from Google or Walmart about products availability at Walmart.
Do Google really want sell thing or they don't care?

Who cares about this ? go complain to a police station or something.
I don't understand the title of this thread... if they are serious wouldn't they be doing a better job? And i don't think it was written as sarcasm... btw.. why does this thread exist?
When the impatient bug hits, it hits bad..
While he is railing on Google, the same thing has happened with the iPad. It has sold out, with Apple taking days to update its expected ship date. And trying to find a retailer with one in the first few weeks (i know, my wife was looking for one) was madness.
And really OP, you are complaining about this after only TWO days? Your realize Google is only shipping their first batch right now, right? And future batches have to ship from overseas, which will take a few days (unless they are crazy and fly them in, and then eat all their profits...).
Be patient, its a virtue..
Agreed. Give it some time man, then rant on.

Invites are needed again?
Sent from my LG-H815
I genuinely want this phone and hope someone is kind enough to throw me an invite!! Paying it forward is an awesome (and rare) thing to do these days.
I have gone mad by using HOX+ and his 3 hours SOT battery and now I am looking for something new but cheaper. I wanted to buy Oneplus One but thetn I read that Oneplus Two is coming. I would be very happy if someone is good enough to share invite with me.

I'm really cute
And I'm giving up on htc One X and htc one m8. They are great phones...but I want more!
Please, share the invite with me too....
Thank you in advance! - And now you are cutie too :good::fingers-crossed:
*sigh*
this again... I would like an invite but even more I'd like the ability to just order the phone... without this invite game. No one liked it the first time (well no one without invites) so why repeat it? I have to earn the right (lotto or sweepstakes style) to pay full price for a phone... really? Only thing that will help is if they have a crazy number of invites. I would actually prefer them wait until they have enough stock before selling the phone and just have a normal preorder then regular order system.... even if that means it wont come out for another 6 months.... think I'm crazy? You probably wont even earn an invite until then anyways.... I wasted so much time trying to get an invite for the oneplus one that eventually I lost interest all together.
If this phone is priced the same as others ($600-700) I think sales will suffer due to this invite system and there wont be a one plus 3. I hope I'm wrong... but doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is insane... Oneplus one launch was NOT a success but a failure... so repeating that is a bad idea (the metric to judge this is it was a desired phone by by the time everyone could get an invite they were so pissed that they didn't want it even when they had invites... I couldn't give my invites away). I'm hoping this time they will be more prepared and send out 200,000 invites a day at LEAST.
Sorry had to be said
*drops mic*
From a buyer point of a view the invite system is as annoying as it can be, but from their POV it was a success.
They did not antecipate or have the resources to meet the demand without cutting it with the invites.
They also do not spend money on marketing so the invite system is free publicity, hey arent we doing it right now?
Im looking for a replacement for my N5 so maybe the OPT might be it, we'll see when the specs are out.
I'd like an invite because I'm curious about Oneplus phones. While I won't just go get the One because the 2 is right around the corner, I'd like to give it a try. I've been forever stuck on brand name phones, changing phones out every year, I'd like a phone that has a great price point.

I think the price was what made them successful not the invite system. The big thing that hit the media was a top of the line phone with midrange price. The invite system brought frustration and the same media outlets that praised them at first turned against them. Now their name is out and they do not need to play with invites... Bringing that back would be a mistake. Maybe as a pre-release - get your hands on the device before launch thing but other than that I see it as a bad idea. If they just release normal they will probably win the market. If they keep playing games it will be their down fall. Yes, I agree from their POV they may think it was a success but it brought frustration. I do know they did not have a choice but this year they do, if they anticipate high demand put off the launch until they can fill most orders within the first or second month. If people know a decent ETA of when they can have the phone in their hand it will restore faith in their buyers. Problem solved. ☺

Australia shipping maybe?
An invite and local Australian shipping would be great. Don't like having to give other people money just to get phone into Australia when they could just list it as an option.
I deserve an invite because my dad is still using a laggy Nokia c7.
I'm looking forward to getting one too! If someone ever got one, I'm already in the line ahah
Give me an invite, or don't, doesn't really matter to me. It would just be nice to have a phone that isn't locked down tighter than Guantanamo (current Verizon S5 user).
I would love an invite as I'm currently running an HTC One M7 with the horrid pink/purple camera issue. I don't have a spare phone and use it for work so I couldn't deal with sending it in for warranty repairs, and I'm waiting until August before my contract is up with AT&T to get a new phone without paying full price. Either way, all of the current options this time around just don't entice me, but being able to get a flagship-level phone out of contract for (assuming) not $600+ would be great.
As an upcoming university student this fall, budgets and money is very slim for me. It sucks because my hobby and passion of having the best devices is very expensive. I love my Nexus 4 because it provides great experience and was very affordable, and the One Plus Two will continue that for me. Would LOVE an invite Thank you !
hi, I would like to receive an invite because I'm fed up with these brads that are selling in my country. you could only buy samsung, HTC, LG, Apple,... no other brads. Can you please send me an invite?
thank you.
I have an iPhone 5 and want to give a chance to the android system.
Since i am pretty sure of NOT getting this phone anytime soon ( i'm at about the 275000 position ) , why not look to my follow Canadians for invites. So if you guys/girls have spare invites, share them here, between Canadians. I'll do the same when i get mine ( if ever... )

Well, i would buy a 1+2 if the shipping price in Canada with custom duty was not so high... It's already over $500 CAD and i expect to charge $100+ more for shipping here. It's not a deal and you should wait to see if the new Nexus 5/6 2015's better or the OnePlus Two v2 incoming this year would be better or way better, a Project ARA phone if it don't fail. Also, Snapdragon 820's coming soon too. I am from Montréal in the Québec Province.

Hola
I am with you on this. I have the oneplus one and am currently using S6. I can't see much benefit of buying this version especially with a weak Canadian to US dollar rate.
I am holding out for the new Nexus. I will say that I miss my custom ROMs terribly, the S6 sucks eggs due to poor development. There are a few ROMs out there but nothing like oneplus or Nexus phones.
"So what you want me to do 'bout that?"
US dollar never stopped me from getting what i wanted, but i understand that it can get expensive. I never have anything shipped to Canada, crazy shipping rates, over charges, brokerage., etc... And they are using the WORST cie for that DHL.... I have my stuff shipped to the US near the border and go get it, it's a 30-45 minutes drive, get my stuff, go have a burger and a beer at the Plattsburg marina's Naked Turtle, and come back.
So according to info from the oneplus forums "There will NOT be any CBSA related Customs Duty Fee / Boarder fee when ordering and shipping the Oneplus 2!"
Shipping, the same cost as the oneplus one will be $28USD or approx $37CND
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/canadian-customers-no-more-customs-duty-fee.328542/
For US orders $389 + $16 (standard shipping) = $405USD or approx $530CND
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/official-oneplus-one-shipping-tax-u-s.13183/
For a total of $516CND it is currently cheaper to have it shipped to your door than heading over to the US. This will change back and forth depending on how the dollar goes, but all in all its not too bad.

https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/canadian-customers-no-more-customs-duty-fee.328542/
For US orders $389 + $16 (standard shipping) = $405USD or approx $530CND
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/official-oneplus-one-shipping-tax-u-s.13183/
For a total of $516CND it is currently cheaper to have it shipped to your door than heading over to the US. This will change back and forth depending on how the dollar goes, but all in all its not too bad.

That's great news. I think that last time ( Oneplus One ) only people from Quebec and Vancouver (?) got hit by a surcharge at delivery by DHL ?
I'm not sure about the DHL extra charge I suspect it's random and nothing to really do with Quebec or Vancouver. I mean all it takes is one DHL employee who isn't sure if the duty was paid or not and people will get double charged. That employee could be working at any DHL location.
Btw I'm number 5xx,000 on the reservation list so please help a brother out with an invite if and when possible. And I say xx cuz everytime I check the number grows, started at ~517,000 now I'm like ~580,000 [emoji20]

Not sure...lol This is what the app tells me but on website it's different....
You peeps really need to read this forum post..... The reservation list is NOT a guarantee you will receive an invite... It's simply used for unused inches and if that happens they will go to the list. I bought on the 11th and the price was $479.00 for the 2, with $36.98 shipping and $60 in taxes.... Crappy that the Canadian dollar is so bad right now...

As far as I know the only invites given are for Pop Ups and contests... I'm OnePlus member #380 and still have not received my early supporter invite... So it will be some time until the reservation list will be used... 8)
Fully aware of the fate of the reservation list members. It sucks but it is the official line. In all honesty I will wait until the nexus 2015 are available for purchase and don't prove to be overly offensive. The current LG based leaks looks horrible to me, I mean there are $100usd android one phones that look much better than that.
Soo as I was saying if I get the invite after I purchase a nexus 2015 then I'll just ignore it. The only reason why I am curious and want to try oneplus 2 is because there is such tremendous support for the oneplus one on xda.
While I want an invite asap I went into this eyes wide open. Which brings up the question, could I get your referral invite when you do get that?
Thks

Same thing for me , i'm on the list but unsure IF i will "push" to get one. I for one, won't degrade myself doing moronic stuff to get higer on the list , like they are asking people to do , i.e. flash mobs and stuff. Looking at reviews i am starting to think that my Oneplus One is still very capable, the 2 hasn't anything really that i want beside being shinny and new
Lol so true. At times I wonder if oneplus is a real company or if they are really an experiment being run by the psychological warfare arm of the people's liberation army.

Well, it looks like Canada isn't getting OnePlus Two for a while[emoji14] I am still eagerly awaiting my invite as well. Seems we are unlucky.

So there are now an increasing number of threads on the oneplus forum for international customers getting their invites.
Alas these invites are not shareable despite the good intentions of some members.
Anyone here get have any luck?

Would love an invite. Probably just gonna end up buying an invite on eBay.
