Wirefly:
I just spoke with "aaron" of wirefly via online chat.
Apparently they will not be receiving phones until the 26th. meaning you can expect shipments to go out on the 26th AT THE EARLIEST. The later in line you are, the higher the chances you may get delayed even more.
1-Day shipping means the 27th at the earliest, so no time to play with it on the weekend...
Since going with wirefly does save me $70, tax, plus friends and family store, I'll be anxiously waiting, but this does suck
Amazon:
Their website states estimated delivery date of July 1st with 2-day shipping as well!
.
If you go through wirefly friends and family its 150 not sure of the downside though

Unfortunately, since i save on tax (almost 10%), and it's $20 cheaper than RS or Sprint, coupled with the extra $25 off through fatwallet, I can't say that 3 days is worth $70, but this really annoys me.

Is there a way to get the $25 fatwallet clickthrough along with the friends and family site? that would bring the price down to $125 + no tax...

I dont know how to get any of these HELP!!!
1. go here: http://www.fatwallet.com/Wirefly-coupons/ for the click-through. it gives you $25 cash back for ordering any phone on wirefly.
2. to get friends and family price (which is $149.99) google wirefly friends and family.
3. if you have Bank of America, go here: https://additup.bankofamerica.com , and then access wirefly, and you get $50 in your BofA account.
But, all these options do not allow you to have your phone on the 24th.
I don't think you can take the word from 1 chat representative and say it's delayed. I called and asked and they said it would ship on the 24th. Now I'm regretting putting $50 down at Radioshack. I may get it from wirefly friends and family for $150 and then get $50 to spend at Radioshack on accessories and what not...

I hope you're right. I also pre-ordered at radioshack, but I figure, if I pick up the phone for $150, i save taxes and basically got the gift card for free... if my 3D is delayed too far out (very possible since i just purchased this morning depending on their stock and looking at amazon's status), i'll just pick it up from radio shack. I'll talk to another wirefly rep in a bit and see if i get the same answer.
I just placed my order through Amazon and it told me my estimated ship date was June 24th and delivery being the 28th

My local Best Buy will be receiving 30 phones on the 24th. I'm number 13 on the reserved list. Im sure other places will save you a buck or more but I've been holding onto a $100 BB gift card since Christmas for this very reason. 2 weeks can't come soon enough!!!

I went with The Shack. Wirefly has some ridiculous policy that if you swap phone numbers on the 3D they charge you like 300 dollars. My wife has a full upgrade, mine isnt up until July so I'm getting the 3D on her upgrade then giving her my Evo. She can't wait to get rid of her Pre, and I'll still be sitting on a full upgrade for the next best phone when July rolls around.

I've been hearling a little bit about that $300 charge. Is that for as long as you have the phone, or not?
Second question, are you guys saying that I can use the family & friends discount with the fatwallet discount and pay only like $125 for my EVO?
Ugh....i need to sell me evos quickly and pre-order!

EVO 3D on handec for £439.99 exc VAT.. that is totally NOT cheap but i think the sensation was the same price when it was on pre order

"We expect the release date to be early September. However a confirmed date will be announced in due course"
I always thought the "EVO" line of handsets were a sprint thing.

There is a GSM too
It is £569.99 at Amazon.uk It also stated that the releasing date is 12 September.
However earlier news claiming Vodafone will release it on 11th July. They better do otherwise I will trash their shops.
Well, i was hoping that the July release would be worldwide and not just for vodafone. since i dont live in europe i will have to wait til september
Can I upgrade my phone since I bought the 3D when It was release back in june 2011? Im on the Sprint 2 Year contract and I added a second line ( Family Plan ) in November 2011. Im not sure if there is special upgrade rules that apply to contracts when switching between Evo's. I heard one year out and I heard 18 months out you can upgrade without paying full retail price. I really want to get a 4G LTE though. That phone looks bad-ass! I know a lot of devs will be switching also. Appreciate any info.
S3 can be pre-ordered through Sprint now. I have noticed that Amazon wireless tends to be cheaper (currently 50 dollars cheaper for the EVO LTE 4G on Amazon).
Has anybody read or seen if we'll be able to pre-order and what the price maybe?
Thanks in advance.
Samsung Galaxy S3 is available for pre-order at Amazon for a hefty sum of $799, in blue or white color. The blue version is expected to start shipping May 29, while the white will ship a few days later, on June 1.
The 799 is for the unlocked with no plan. You can renew your contract and upgrade through Amazon wireless. Right now I could order the EVO LTE 4G for only 150 with a new contract. I am hoping that they will also have a cheaper deal on the S3 (you can preorder that for 200 on Sprint's website right now)
Amazonwireless usually gets the phones a little bit after the initial carrier launches, from what I've seen. I think it must have some sort of contract with the carriers as not to put them up at a discounted price until an initial time period goes by.
HTC One on AT&T: $199 w/ contract & available April 19th! (Preorder begins April 4th)
http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=23994&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=36239&mapcode=consumer|wireless
Beginning April 19, AT&T* plans to offer the highly-anticipated HTC One® smartphone to customers for $199.99 with a two-year commitment, for the 32 GB memory variant. AT&T is the only U.S. wireless carrier at launch to also offer a version with 64 GB of memory for $299.99 with a two-year commitment.
Customers eager to reserve their HTC One will be able to pre-order at www.att.com/htcone on April 4 starting at 1:00 p.m. CT. Only AT&T offers a free** HTC Media Link HD wireless HDMI adaptor*** (a $90 value), which lets you wirelessly share content from your phone to your HD television.
**A $90 value. Offers ends April 18, 2013. 2-year wireless agreement with voice & data plans or Mobile Share plan required on each. Other charges and restrictions apply

So if your pre-order then for $199 with 2-yr contract you get the HTC One with 32gb of storage and wireless HDMI Adapter, whereas with the Galaxy S4 you only get 16gb + No HDMI Adapter.
Looks like a real opportunity for the One to shine and win back customers / market share for HTC :victory:
Glad the earlier report of a $250 price was completely wrong.
Heres a demo of the HTC Media Link Wireless HDMI Adapter being offered if you pre-order before April 18th
Re: HTC One on AT&T = $249 (guess $249 is the new standard)
Should off been offered at $99 to be honest to compete with sgs4. Also there is no mention when 64gb version goes on pre-order I wonder if that version will not release until few months later.

Re: HTC One on AT&T = $249 w/ 2 year contract (guess $249 is the new standard)
What does it matter 200 or 250 when you are paying so much for 2 years? Anyway they will reduce the price after a month or online sites like Amazon, best buy will offer for less. Hopefully these crap contract process ends soon and just sell phones like laptops and other electronics.

Looked on the first 2 pages and didn't see anyone post anything about $249 price.
Looks like AT&T wants to make $249 w/ contract the new standard. Can't wait till next year when the greedy bastards try to push the standard up to $300 w/ contract
Would have been a nice opportunity for AT&T and HTC to offer the One at a lower price (say $199) than the Galaxy S4 to gain market share, but still a great phone.

Not on Sprint, it was shown @ $199. I stay away from the big greedy ones (AT&T and Verizon).
It's not the carrier's fault. The phones are legitimately getting more expensive. The MSRP for the S4 and HTC One are higher. They are both gonna be $249 on contract. The only one who can pull a $199 still is Apple. Nokia is stuck with exclusivity and probably eats much of the cost when they sell their Lumia 920 for $99 on AT&T. Honestly the new crop of phones are minor upgrades and unless you are a spec and benchmark whore, the extra cost doesn't net much compared to getting a much cheaper last gen phone like the One X or S3. 720p vs 1080p very minor for phones. 8MP vs 13MP (or cough 4MP) marginally better (or worse). Last year's dual/quad core phones vs this year's quad-core/octa-core phones, the difference is imperceptible like the S3 vs S4, or still poorly optimized like the Xperia Z that runs like a dual-core.

HTC said the unlocked developer edition with support for AT&T LTE will be priced at $650 in the United States, and developer editions tend to be more expensive than carrier editions. The iPhone 5 16GB with AT&T LTE is $650 from Apple. So why is the One $250 on contract and the iPhone 5 16GB $200 on contract? These new phones are not more expensive. AT&T just wants more money.
i think 199.99 would've been a perfect price point for the 32gb version. For 249.99, the general public will more than likely pick the s4 or the iphone at 199.99.

I guess you haven't heard but the S4 is starting at $250.
And I'm pretty sure that means 16 will be $250, 32 will be $300 and 64 will be $350.
Also iPhone starts at 200 with 16 being lowest memory capacity. So it goes 200, 300, 400.
The HTC One with 32 will be $250 and 64 will be $300.
Hopefully they'll go with memory capacity being only $50 apart instead of the current $100 apart. >.>
So HTC is actually the one with the best prices here. So with your logic actually that means the HTC One is more likely to be picked by the general public. (if only that we're the truth!)

I know the US (and Canadian!) market prices are still very much perceived based on subsidies, but really, we need to look at the cost of devices on an unsubsidized basis if we want to compare Oranges and Apples :=)
The US pricing for *unlocked* iPhone 5's (and this is some 6+ months after release), is:
16GB - $649
32GB - $749
64GB - $849
So you need to compare the HTC One Developer unlocked at $650 to the $849 unlocked iPhone 5. I presume the AT&T "no contract" price for the HTC One 64GB will be the same $649. Seems pretty good value to me!

Im fully aware that the s4 will be starting at 250, hence why I said the public will be more likely to pick that when it's the same price as the one regardless of the storage. The majority of people aren't going to pay attention to the storage but moreso the brand of the phone and the price. Also why would att price it at 250 when sprint is pricing it at 200? not good for htc.
AT&T to sell the HTC One on April 19 for $200, pre-orders start April 4
Earlier we reported that AT&T's version of the HTC One would be going on pre-sale sometime this week, and the GSM carrier has finally revealed its official plans: the flagship HTC device will be ready for pre-order online starting April 4th. Both the 32GB and 64GB models, which will be $200 and $300 respectively, will hit retail store shelves on April 19th. The carrier will also offer a free Media Link HD to sweeten the deal, though it appears that it's only a part of the pre-sale and won't be available to customers who wait until the 19th to grab it.

Very excited to see they have the 64GB ready to go at launch! Coincidentally travelling in the US week of the 22nd - yay!
