Preorder for Amazon gone - LG G5 Questions & Answers

So do any of you guys know what's going on with the Preorder with amazon? For some reason it was delisted off the site yesterday.

I went looking for it this morning, given that it's now the 4th and noticed it is gone as well! There are some other bundles for $650 but they don't ship until July. What gives?!
Also, B&H still has the preorder but no date.
-Collin-

The b&h bundle use to say beginning of March for shipping but now they took that off also. Wow July that would be a huge delay. I think the only way we can find out is if amazon sent an email to anybody that pre-ordered.

I was looking this morning, too. I found them from other sellers at varying rates. http://www.amazon.com/LG-Unlocked-P...psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00

Now the silver one disappeared

I can't speak to the pre-orders for the USA. But here in Spain the device goes and comes. There was the pre-order for 700 with the battery pack and camera module. Now it's only the camera module and it's shipping now for 640 euros. There were others with no add-ons for 560. I was going to get the one with no add-ons but they disappeared and sold out within a day. They had 10... Lol.

What about this version on Amazon? http://www.amazon.com/LG-H850-32GB-...UTF8&qid=1462557239&sr=8-1&keywords=lg+g5+850
Isn't that the version of the H850 where the bootloader is unlocked?

That's correct, but if you live outside of Europe, double-check the bands for compatibility on your carrier.

B&h just got the titan in Stock but the silver is coming on may 11. I think may 11 is when I'm gonna get my bundle because all the friends comes at the date also.

FYI: Clove have stock of White 920

Just for anyone looking for sim free stock in the UK, I just got an email from clove saying they are getting some white 920 in tomorrow and their site says £520 inc vat. I'd imagine they'll go quick so get over there if you want one.
I caved and picked one up at the weekend on contract in black and it's an awesome phone. Had a look at white, but actually think black looks classier with the matt finish and also feels nicer to hold than the gloss white. The white still looks very nice though in the flesh - I was very tempted!
Thanks for the heads up ....just ordered mine. Do you know if they come factory sealed? I have had bad experiences of buying SIM free handsets from Amazon in the past where the phones looked like customer returns

I've ordered phones from Clove in the past and they have arrived in new condition. I don't think you are going to have a bad experience with them.
Good to know. Thanks for the reassurance

I ordered mine yesterday.
We might be eligible to get a free wireless charger from Nokia, Clove are looking into that atm.
If Im not unlucky, I should have it in my hands thursday or friday, as the phones arrive today after FedEx has made their pickup and thus will be sent out tomorrow.
I figuratively cannot wait!

I ordered mine yesterday morning too, but had no confirmation of delivery yet. However, the money has left my bank.
What time did you order it? Just trying to figure out how likely I am to get mine and I can't find any way of checking the order online

I ordered mine around 8pm (Norwegian time) yesterday, got this email at 11.16am today:
"Many thanks for the information. Your order will now be progressed. When we send your order you will receive your tracking reference by email. We are expecting our machines today, however, probably not in time for Fedex, so your order will be shipped Wednesday for delivery within 1-2 working days."
A user on a norwegian discussionboard ordered as well around the time I ordered, and his just changed to SHIPPING about 15 minutes ago, delivery via DHL.
Im expecting it in-hand by thursday/friday.

Update from Clove.
"Hi all,
Just to confirm:
If you have managed to place an order, your Lumia 920 will be shipped from stock that we receive this week.
We shipped as many orders as possible on 13/11, but due to the late arrival of stock and the timings of our courier collections, we were unable to ship some orders. We do expect to ship remaining outstanding orders today.
At the moment we do not know when we will receive more stock, nor stock of the other colour variants, but will provide an update as soon as we have some more info."

Would it be possible for someone who's ordered from clove be able to confirm the device is factory unlocked please? I'm on an O2 contract, and very tempted to get myself a 920 factory unlocked/sim free, provided it will accept my o2 sim card, unlike the "sim free but locked to EE" devices that phones4u are selling. I know Clove are stating that their devices are factory unlocked, but it'd be nice if this could be confirmed.
Thanks
Ian
A guy on a norwegian smartphone forum got his today, its unlocked.
Also, I have an email from Clove confirming that they are in fact unlocked and will work with my operator here in Norway, which would mean its fully unlocked indeed.
did the norwegian guy get his phone from clove?
Thanks
Ian
Yeah of course, I thought that was implied .

Wait or buy?

Hello!
I've been thinking about buying the Honor 7 for some months now. The only problem is that it's taking too long for the release in europe so I'm thinking of buying the chinese version.
I have some questions that I hope someone could help me with..
1. What are the difference between the models we have on the market today? Any model I should buy instead of the other ones?
2. Is there any drawbacks with buying a chinese model? Language problems? Google apps not working (so I read?)?
3. Should I wait for the European version or buy the chinese version?
Thank you for any answears!

The EU version is for sale now so I guess you should get that. You get 50€ off the price (349€) this weekend also so you only pay 299€. Check out www.vmall.eu

It's not on sale now, It's just preorder. I also want the gold version, not the booring grey.
They still don't have a date for the actual shipment

I just ordered it yesterday in grey on vMall, but it still unprocessed
It's not possible to join them, neither by email /chat, neither by phone (busy ringing),
i'm disapointed about that :/
Let's see what will append next.
Just like LePocketPc I ordered it two days ago at night time and I should receive it on Monday with DHL delivery as well.
The payment process went well and they processed my order yesterday morning. I'm still surprised by how efficient they were on my order.
@m3zz3r On their email they wrote that they're only working from Monday to Friday from 9 to 5 therefore I doubt you'll get any answer from them before Monday. (they're located in France apparently, and the phone is shipping from London)
I'm in the UK and ordered on Friday. Order says not processed. They don't work at weekends and it's a holiday here on Monday. Hope they've got some stock on Tuesday It seems Expansys is handling the sales, in the UK anyway.
I've joined the club and gone for the EU version, for £210 seems a real bargain......only concern is the updates but it does have android 5.0 and ive read that 5.1.1 is currently in beta testing (HUKD)........ordered also late friday afternoon so not processed yet.....would be nice if it came next week but im looking at at least a few weeks....... a new phone to play with will be fun as ive had my LG G2 for a few years now, works great but boredom has set in......LOL
Anyone who's ordered had any indication of when it will be shipped?

Just received mine now For information the 86 IMEI working with the provider FREE ( France ) with 20 Go Fair Use
Komplett has the white one in stock
The phone is now listed as 'Available' in my VMall order (France) !
Ordered mine on 'launch' day last week and still have it as being pre-ordered. How are people getting theirs already that ordered the day after I did? The lack of info for the actual shipping day is a bit frustrating.

Ordered mine sunday night and it shipped yesterday (monday) via DHL.
A few minutes ago I have received the banking details for my order dd. August 28 ...
The payment goes to Expansys also for German orders and to a German banking account.
I guess they will have received thousands of orders and will be a little bit busy now :silly:
Can someone confirm which version exactly came from VMall.eu?
My version is PLK-L01. Bought friday from vmall.eu
I'm in the UK. Placed an order on Friday and just received an email saying delivery expected in 2-3 weeks...unprecedented demand...hugely popular...blah blah.
Sent from my Vodafone Smart ultra 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Just had an email from vmall.eu - They say that it will take 2-3 weeks to get the phone. Seems a bit unfair given I ordered within an hour of it being live on the site on Thursday and others have ordered later and received theirs already.
And as a side rant, why on earth do manufacturers put themselves in this position. They know it will be popular, so have more stock. It isn't a rushed release or anything, so just be prepared for launches properly.

Verizon will start preorders for the HTC 10 on April 29. In addition, Verizon Wireless stores will host exclusive in-store previews on April 29 to give consumers and media a hands-on look at the HTC 10. Verizon will be the first wireless carrier to offer the HTC 10.

Yes, the $100 HTC1008 Promo Code works for the Verizon HTC 10 on HTC's website.
My Pre-order is complete, and now the waiting begins...
Oh cool. I see that now. Too bad they don't offer the carbon gray... I'll just stick with my pre-ordered unlocked one and hope for the best!
Went in store and pre-order mine . Should by here to pick up by the 5th.

Wanted to add, Verizon's price is $650 and they are doing $22 for 24 months on their financed plan.

Actually is not bad at all, went to Verizon and I am very iimpresse!! Pre-ordered 2 of them. Can't wait until next week to play with it!
I am keeping my pre-order for the unlocked version.
Chatted with two representatives on the 13th who both said the unlocked version will work with Verizon, so I pre-ordered then and there. Talk about the unlocked version NOT working with Verizon had me concerned, and now that the pre-order for Verizon is up I thought I'd contact them through phone and check to see if I can switch my pre-order to the Verizon version.
Rep tells me I'd have to cancel my pre-order and place my pre-order for the Verizon version, I tell her my main concern was that the unlocked version wouldn't work with Verizon. She said no, it should definitely work with Verizon....
I am just going to wait and see. Worse comes to worst, I'll just return it and pick one up from the Verizon store at that point.

Completely agree with this. I looked at some of the main "issues" that reviewers complained about and they were SO overblown.
The screen looked fantastic from all angles. Didn't see any pink hue from the side. Camera focus was lightening quick. Maybe it isn't quite as fast as S7, but nothing you'd notice in real world use.
Only thing I was completely disappointed with was the speaker. Not only was it not loud, but it didn't sound impressive in the slightest. For a phone with separates, it did not sound as bassy as ONE speaker on my M8, and I'm fairly certain if I disabled one speaker on my M8 it would STILL be louder than the 10. Highly disappointed on that front. Hoping that I can tweak it with software and push at least a little bit more volume without distorting.

UK Availability Limited!

At the end of my N6 contract and really want the 6P but can't find a monthly contract on line as EE, Vodafone etc no longer stocking 6P. I'm after brand new, not refurbished. Anybody know any third party outlets where still available on tariff or buy sim free. I came across Amazon deals but with limited warranty as they just selling on new goods what they've already bought.

Be advised that they get awful reviews. I just checked a little deeper and their FAQ states the phone might come in an unsealed box.
People also mention delays in posting. Do they really post from UK, it sounds very suspect. BTW on their website they advertise a 128gb 6P for £388

Hey, sorry I didn't respond! The phone arrived in two days in the legitimate box sealed. I'm very happy with this. Worth the �.
EDIT: I meant sealed not unsealed.
Quick delivery, was it brand new. Frustrating that unsealed but glad your happy with it. Still not bought one yet myself, am hoping unlocked mobiles reduce the price nearing Xmas.

Where is the Nokia 7.1 available for sale?

Just wondering how wide spread sales are for this phone? Is it available throughout the world?
The phone is available for sale here in the UK but there virtually no accessories for it yet. If that many had been sold wouldn't there already be cases and screen protectors available?
In the US it's being sold by Amazon and Bestbuy. It's not actually out in the US yet. I have one on pre-order from Amazon and just got an email giving me a delivery date of the end of October.
Amazon is now showing a Nokia branded case but shows a one to three month lead time. I'm keeping an eye on that as that may change once the phone is officially released. The only other cases I've seen are cheap and probably crap. I'm hoping a name brand case manufacturer releases something soon.
Best Buy in the US is showing as a non-preorder with delivery on 10/31 now. Stores won't get any until 11/4 and then only the blue version (when I want steel, of course). B&H is showing stock for the blue (steel still on pre-order), Amazon still no stock.

Amazon must have had some stock because mine has been shipped and is being delivered today. They must have used up all of their available stock on preorders. When I checked Amazon this morning it did say out of stock and now says "Available from these sellers. The link points to two third-party retailers.
Still no luck with cases though.

Yes I did get the Blue. I should have it in a couple of hours or so as that's when the UPS guy normally comes through here.
I'll post back later today.
You can get it on B&H for free expedited delivery or earliest Bestbuy can ship to store is tuesday.
