Hi,
in one month I will be in the USA for my vacations and I would like to see if buying a S3 (and the nexus tablet, in case it comes out by then) there would be cheaper.
the thing is I live in Italy and I would like to know if:
A) an unbranded version of the phone is already available there/will be by then
B) if it is, if there are any differences in the version of the phone and if i will encounter any issues using it in Italy (maybe also considering warranty?)
thanks in advance for your attention ,
Nicola
Hi, I'd like to purchase the huawei mate 10 pro dual sim, I live in the UK so a UK reseller would be preferable.
But it seems the mobile gods decided for the mid to high end UK market to only receive single sim handset variants.
Any ideas on where to purchase the mate 10 pro dual sim?
many thanks
Luca
Try eBay

I couldn't find one, all official UK resellers were single sim only.
I ended up getting an imported one from Asia and rebranding to the Euro version.
Means I'm not covered by warranty though as it was a phone from outside of the EU, even though it acts like an EU model now.
If you do get a resold one maybe try to get one from the EU rather than Asia so you have a better chance of manufacturer warranty. And you wouldn't need to rebrand to get the better compatibility of volte and WiFi calling on the UK networks. I only didn't as I couldn't find any, but that was a few months ago.
Chances of finding a dual sim model that Huawei intend to be sold in the UK though are next to 0. I think I've seen posts from people in Germany and Sweden where the dual sim EU model is officially sold.
In Romania is sold dual sim also, everywhere. Only Vodafone sell this phone with single-sim.

that's a bummer, UK always gets the worse deals, I hate shopping for mobiles
Hi Guys,
The Find X has been released in Australia, and is available from today exclusively at JB Hi-fi. The price is pretty reasonable compared to other markets at $1099aud. JB Hifi gives customers who port their phone number to Telstra in store a $200 gift card towards the phone. Many employer discount programs include JB Hifi discounts. I've just picked up my Find X Bordeaux Red for $849.00. Lemme know if you want any more deets.
Possum.
Is it a global version? There's italian language? In this case can you extract the software or maybe you have a link to the australian oppo website to download it? Thx

Yes. It's global. I just bought it from jbhifi
Is it possible to dump the firmware or something? But damn 850 AUD is really cheap that's like 550 euro's.. only thing holding me back is the China version.. In the Netherlands it will sell for 1000 euros but that's a no no while the Chinese version is around 650 euros. Hopefully we could put the global version on it
Woo-hoo! I've got one coming in the mail
Hey guys!
Massively interested in this phone. My HTC U11 broke just recently. The back and front smashed and my insurance company said they couldn't fix it so sent me the cash. That's when I did some research and heard about the Pocophone F1 which looks amazing! The only thing is it isn't easy not having a phone when I need to work....
Is there any chance a release date for Europe or the UK in particular will be announced soon? Any rumours flying about? I'm really trying hard to hold out for this phone!
Available in the UK from Appliances Direct.

I'm talking official release but thanks.
It is the Global Version with a UK charger!
It is here also released in the Netherlands, only webshops.
U get Dutch warranty, so I think when u buy it from a UK store u get UK warranty.
Since there are no Mi stores

Thanks for the info BassBounce. That's good to know. The only issue I have with buying from one of these sites is whether they are putting a mark up on the price of the phone? I wonder if when it is officially released will it be cheaper than on these sites? Also, I can't seem to find the Armoured version of the Poco F1 anywhere to buy in the UK. I'd really like the Armoured version since I seem to be pretty unlucky when it comes to braking phones....

That's good to know thank you. It may be a good option although I'd rather buy the Armoured edition which they don't stock.

Do they give you a UK warranty or do you have to send it abroad?

Its a UK seller so yeah ur getting a warranty here, ur covered by the seller for 12 months, and even if u get the phone from like Netherlands u still covered by EU warranty, keep in mind the phone is only like 250 quid.. its not a 1000 quid phone, or trying lookin at alternatives like second hand pixel 2 xl for around 300-350
Apparently the one from Appliances Direct doesn't have a charger with it at all!
Hello mates
I'm lookin forward to buy my first huawai device, but I'm not sure where I should buy the device. Let me explain this a litte bit more:
I could buy the Mate 20 Pro directly from Switzerland, for a very good price. But I also coud buy the device from Germany, also okayish price.
Now I'm not sure if it is a difference if I buy a non branded device from one of these countries, in the term of how I receive Updates.
In the past I used a Samsung Device bought in Switzerland, and my German Neigbours got their updates Months before it was availible in Switzerland.
Do you know if Huawai also uses different Region Updates, or is there someone, who owns the device from switzerland/germany who is at the newst version, were they released on the same date?
If you're in CH , buy in CH for the guarantee. As for the updates, they are really random on Huawei. I got my M20P friday (from CH), I put my SIM inside and got the -.122 (two patches) directly. Some people who got their phones in the UK, but live in the UK, depending of which SIM they put inside they did or didn't get the last update. For example people who had an EE or O2 SIM didn't get the update, they then swapped to a Vodafone SIM and got their update right away. There is THREAD discussing this.
