My digitizer broke a while ago and now that I got a job I was looking to buy a new one, but I can't spend a lot of money on it, yet I have the feeling the ones I'm seeing on ebay for $30 will be pretty cheap and will break easily. Does anyone know how much an official digitizer, or at least a good OEM one is selling for nowadays? A friend of mine is going to the US next month so I will ask her to buy me one there as it will be much more cheaper than buying one on my country. I'm looking to spend less than 100 dollars on it, I wouldn't be able to afford anything more than that.
Thanks!
I've heard there are some quite reputable sellers on Amazon. You should be able to get a decent one for $30-$40. Plus, Amazon has a free shipping option for orders of $25 or more (at least in the US).
I bought a cheap one of ebay from China or Hong kong and its been fine for over 6 months

Buy one new with a frame (not just the glass). I've done a few. Also, follow a guide that also removes the LCD. Do not fall pray to trying to thread the digitizer ribbon through the whole as you risk ripping it. Figure up to $40 is normal. I had new last week where the new digitizer was no good, so be prepared to do the work more than once and take your time.

I got one on Amazon 33.00 it didn't work after 3 it works great only played for 1 and they refunded me on the one I have installed now and working they honor the Warranty the ribbons are not genuine tear easy have to be very careful.and remove the LCD makes it easy to prevent damage to digitizer ribbon.

Can you tell me which one you bought? I need to buy one and I want to be sure to buy one that will work.
I have found that it can be hit or miss and have had both good and bad product from the same supplier. They are all untested digitizers.

I'm based in India, and the seller was "India" based on the ebay address, but when I got the product, it was shipped from HongKong. I can send the details of the supplier who had send the digitizer to me. I do not know about the authenticity of this HongKong Based supplier though!!
And as said above, it can be a hit or miss from the same supplier too.
i just installed a new digitizer on my atrix, it is a little hesitant at times but it works great. got it on ebay from a seller in New Orleans. I can dig up seller store info if ya want!

It's 2 months old, and has just come back from repair at HTC where they fixed an LCD fault by, well, replacing all the innards so it's brand new.
Boxed, with all accessories.
I'm in the UK and before I stick it on ebay, anyone want to make me an offer? Stock ROM but I'll flash the latest and greatest for you if you'd prefer.

Hey guys, I saw this posted over on SlickDeals and didn't see it posted on XDA. Figured I'd post it here in case anyone is interested.
Buy.com has the 16GB Flyer for $199.99 with free shipping. It is a refurbished unit, so hopefully everything works properly. I'm not sure about international shipping charges, I imagine it is only free to the US (could be wrong though).
I jumped on the View 4G sale a month ago for $230~ so this seems like a pretty good deal. Maybe we'll see a surge in the forums with these recent firesales.
I'm really considering getting one. Not really sure how long the sale is for. I might return my galaxy tab 7 plus and pick this baby up. I am just worried we won't get ICS for it.
Sent from my GT-P6210 using Tapatalk
I got one
I bought one of these yesterday at 6pm, paid for 2 day shipping and it arrived today at 2pm - 20 hours!!!
It looks great, like I just took it out of the original wrapper. I tried it for a few minutes, then upgraded (I guess that's debatable) to honeycomb. It's leedroid version, so I suppose it should be pretty good.
Now this is the first thread I read in the general section... what ever happened to the days when I would read for days on how to root a new system
I ordered one also. Should be here today with the "cheap" shipping option. Glad to hear the refurbished ones look like new.
So I've been thinking of buying one, do you guys think it's worth it or wait for the Asus 7" tab to come out?
Sent from my GT-P7510
Never know when the Asus tab will come out.
If you want something now, grab this. I played with the wimax version of the flyer in the sprint store, it's really nice.
I'm not banking on the flyer/view getting ICS at all though. I'm just going to use it for what it is.
Will the Asus Tab have an active digitizer? I have read conflicting versions about this.
$10 off Coupon for flyer buy.com purchase!
All, here's a $10 off coupon to use towards that flyer purchase, if you're new to buy.com. it's valid til 3.31.12: http://www.dealigg.com/out.php?id=33516

I've never heard mention of an active digitizer for the asus tablet. There's really not enough solid information out there.
Purchased $199 Flyer Arrived Today - NO PEN
Did you all get the pen that comes with the tablet from buy.com? Mine did not and I wanted to check to see if it was not included or just missing?! Thanks
I also picked one up for 189. I really hope to get some use out of this at work. I want to replace a ton of paper I generate travelling around from mtg to mtg. I really don't understand why there aren't more pen based tablets out there. If this doesn't work, for 189, I'll just give it to one of my kids to draw on /watch videos.
Based on slick deals advice I got a pen at b&h for $30 shipped. Its a one button model (I have ho idea what that means yet) arrived in a day. Item number FUFPCPN36AP

I almost freaked out when it shot up to $229 on the 16th but then I checked about 3 hours later and it was back to $199. Ordered it immediately after, just in case. Wondered if there was a glitch on their site.

Is it a good deal? That depends on a lot of things. A lot of people seem to have a lot of complaints about this device. I won't go into detail because you can browse this forum and find them. In my case I don't have any real problems. This may be because I just don't use it in the same way as others do so I don't notice. I also have a later production unit. From what I've read, you can tell by the serial number. The oldest ones start with C1 where mine starts with C4. So for me it works fine for everything I need it for and for me $200 would be a good deal. You could get a new Nexus 7 for that or less but I really want the 10 inch screen so an N7 is not the one for me. So the answer is...it all depends.
What the guy above me said.
Except, if the serial number is a "B", serial number, leave. It's a trap.
Buy the Prime at a low price then exchange for a brand new Infinity, good deal!

They'd be able to see on the receipt that he didn't pay full price for it.
That's a great price considering some of us paid full price when it came out at least for me Christmas last year at 545 I believe and the keyboard for 150 then best buy will buy the tablet itself for 150 trade in I believe

You got a great deal. Prime normally sold for $499. You saved 300 dollars.
I would pay 200 for one as long as it booted and responded to touch input. Just to mess around with it.

Hi,
please is there a way to get poetic slimcase in middle europe without those ridiculous shiping prices? I dont mind to spending around 20$ for the case, I think it's worth it, but to spend nearly the same amount for shipping seems bit odd to me.
I tried to find something on ebay, but all poetic cases are marked as "may not ship to your country..."
Or maybe is there something similar to slimcase, that is easily accesible on ebay? Or some other eshop shiping to europe?
About month ago, I ordered some cheap one from china, but it still didn't show up, so I decided to find something else instead.
Thanks for any advice
I've bought the labato case and have been using it for a few months now. It's not perfect, but definitely worth it. There is a really good review in this forum!
Had the same problem! Bought it from "aliexpress.com". Give it a try!
Got mine on amazon.co.uk
Amazon send only in UK. I also ordered one from China
Ok thank you moesus, I will give it a try.
Exactly that is the problem, I've seen hundreds of nice cases on amazon, but they don't ship to Czech Rep. The only case that is aviable here is the original sony, but the price for it is unacceptable for me.
I've just ordered poetic case via Amazon.Co.Uk and it's on its way to Czech Republic from smartstore online right now. So there should be no problem. Cost me around 20£ or so.

Amazon should supply to any country within the Union. Single market. I often buy from amazon.de from the UK.
I finally ordered from amazon as well, the case is already on its way and the shipping wasn't that bad after all thank you.

I'll sell you mine for 20 bucks plus shipping Canadian funds, barley used. I personally don't recommend using it but hey, if you want it,sure thing!
hi guys
I ordered a few weeks ago a bunch of slimline cases for the XTZ directly from poeticcases.com to Germany.
I gathered in 2 other forums (android-hilfe.de, hardwareluxx) a few people, i think we were 11 cases, and ordered centrally.
I got an overall price of 26,40€ for the slimline case in the end.
amazon.co.uk order to germany would be 27,14 pounds / 34,31€...
so my suggestion is to do a collective order...

Don't waste your time and risk your money on eBay. Expansys is already selling the LTE version for $700 including shipping. For another $35, they'll extend the warranty they provide from six to 18 months. (With their warranty, if Sony USA refuses to cover the device, Expansys will return it to the country from which it came, handle the warranty repair for you, and then return it to the USA once more.)

Good luck! All I can tell you is that I bought my HTC One X, my wife's HTC One X+ and my Xperia Z2 from them, and every one was a good experience. The One X+ was the only one where I had any problems at all -- I'd actually ordered a One S, but they couldn't source it and so after waiting a while, they offered me the much better One X+ at well below their retail price.
And for my Xperia Z2, I ordered the phone, two docks and headphones, then they contacted me to let me know I could save money by buying a new, unopened Z2 UK kit that a customer bought and returned without opening, with that specific kit including the headphones I'd bought separately. They actually saved me a good bit by doing so, when they could've just filled the order I had made and got more money out of me...
So yes, three good experiences and I'm very happy with them. Hopefully you will be too! I'm pretty certain once I can afford the Z4 Tablet, I'll be getting it from Expansys, unless somehow Sony USA miraculously sets a reasonable price for the tablet. (Last time around, I paid less to them for the phone, two docks, headphones, extended warranty and expedited shipping than I'd have paid to Sony USA for just the phone by itself.)
We'll see. Here's to hoping. I'm not overly concerned with the timeframe as much as I am just getting it.
Anyone know where I can get the Keyboard seperately? They never released the keyboard for the Z2 Tab Internationally so I'm going to use this. The only one I have found is this one: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/301652441507?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

You're not going to find it for $100 or even anything close to that. The keyboard alone, direct from Sony, costs 15,880 yen in Japan. That's the equivalent of AU$166 in their home market, and you've got to add the cost of international shipping PLUS a profit margin to make it worth their while for any company selling you one as a parallel import. I'd figure $220 is the absolute minimum you're going to find it for anywhere...
I bought at Clove - 482.50 GBP, but it bundles BKB50 Bluetooth Keyboard!
