Where can i see xperia x10i(Tmobile USA) and buy it?

Hi,
probably because its 2:36am here but I can't find any stores(online or local) that sell SE Xperia X10. I am From San Diego, CA. Looked all other the Xperia X10 fan sites and no one mentioning about it.
I would really like to see the phone "in person" as I don't buy things only seeing images on the internet.
Anyone knows where I can go and play with it for couple minutes? And what is the price?
Thank you.

sorry to say dude, you wont see the phone until maybe later this july or august or even september (if AT&T is subsidizing this phone x10a) if you wanna get the x10i with 900/1700/2100, you can either fly to europe or to hong kong to test it in person.

There are several stores in San Gabriel, Monterey Park and Alhambra, CA area that sells X10i with T-Mobile 3G. I purchased mine from addictedtophones.com and pick it up in person. Give them a call.

Thank you guys for reply,
I think I will have a trip to LA to see the phone, I was planing to visit the city anyway, unless I find a store here in San Diego.
Anyone knows how to find this stores?
And I see they making Tmobile contracts too!? strange as tmobile doesnt have them.
My contract ends this month so I will have to decide.
Thank you again.

pagercell services in westminster, ca, orange country can get it too. Holly,the owner can get most imports. I got my treo 650 and p910i from her.
Should be a shorter drive than LA.

I found my X10i online very easily by doing google search for xperia X10.
I got mine from expansys usa but there are others that are also less expansive or at least that was the case about a mouth ago.

How much should it be? I found couple of them on ebay with ~550$, is it a good price? Also i so some websites saying that Xperia Shakira is coming out a mid size phone something like 3.2-3.5 inch display. I would love that, as my wife has a 3GS and its 3.5 inch wich for me is more than enought. I also checked Htc Hd2/Evo with that 4.3 inch display and honestly i think is too much, to big and to wide.
Should I wait for that phone maybe? As I noticed SE moves realy slow. I am assuming until it comes out we will have at least a dozen more androids.
Do you guys like your xperia x10? I was reading alot and many ppl sold their phones. Is it aniying because of small RAM, no multitouch and no firmware updates? Like I said SE is slow on making things.

Do not pay anymore than 500 cash. I've seen listings on ebay for 515 free shipping. Paypal, ebay listing fees, and shipping takes quite a chunk from the retailers so they must have been able to get the phone for much cheaper in order to have any kind of decent profit margin.

There is absolutely nothing seriously wrong with the phone other than a few quirks here and there. If you read through the forums, you will get a picture of what people are complaining about. I've mentioned this in another thread; I think the X10 is a fantastic phone if it meets your requirements. In certain aspects of the UI, the X10 is faster than the N1. In others, the opposite is true. Each phone has its own quirks.
The main reason why I bought the N1 is because I'm a nerd who likes to tinker with things. The N1 has the most support right now and that is why I have it. I will buy the X10 again as soon as I have the available cash though. That should tell you something.

Thx,
probably i am going next week to LA to buy one.
Hope I will like what I see )
Thanks for all support guys. Have a great weekend.

DHD in the Philippines

Please list down the shops that currently have the DHD in the Philippines. Maybe we can help each other find the store with the best deal. The prices I'm listing are in Php.
Greenhills Bridgeway: 38k
Greenhills Theater Mall: 32.5k
Other stores expect the DHD to arive January at 35k.

Dude, have you bought one already? I think I'm gonna go look one in Greenhills.

I'm planning on buying one tomorrow but I'm a bit concerned about the warranty. I might wait till January unless the unit I get is flawless.

so the one in greenhills doesn't have any warranty at all?

thats expensive. but i am curious how it feels and look like. i have an hd2 and i think they are pretty much the same. just wait for January, it might be cheaper then due to a lot of stores carrying them.

The word on the street is that CMK will have it for less than 30k but I just dont know when they will have it in stock.
There is a shop at Bridgeway with dummy DHD's. You may want to visit them to get the feel of the unit.
Warrany of the units now are mostly 7-day returns, but I feel like the regular 1-year warranty is needed for such an expensive device.

I bought mine a nonth ago in Thailand, the first week that they were available here. I paid 23,000 Thai baht which is $728 US and 32,000 pesos comes to $723 so the two countries are about the same. I guess that the warranty would be important but I don't think that you will have any problems with it. I had a HD2 before that I was running Android on and I like my DHD much better, everything just works a lot smoother. I say go for it, those prices sound reasonable to me.

Yeah, I think the 1 year warranty sounds pretty much reasonable, so I'm just gonna wait til' January and that CMK you are talking about? Where is that located?

CMK cellphones is based in QC and they have competative prices.

where exactly in Q.C mate?

Try going to cmkcellphones.com and they have a location map. Also, they have their prices up but the DHD was taken down because they didnt know when they would get any.

True, my wife has a Desire and its been working without a hitch so I think HTC quality is spot on. However, I did see this thread elsewhere about dead pixels starting to appear after some usage and thats the sort of situation I would like to avoid. What a bind I'm in, right?
Anyways, If the price is right, I think ill pick it up.

I think that you will be pleased with your decision.

Would any of you know if these shops sell DHD accessories already?
Thanks

None of the shops I've asked carries any HTC accessories. The best lead I have is to go to the HTC repair center allong Annapolis. I have no idea if they actually have any there but I kinda doubt it.

And how much does Infomaxx sell them?
Infomaxx is known to sell at really high prices, at least for Nikon and most photographic equipment I've asked prices for before.

The initial price was very high but we managed to convince them to lower it. let them know that you know how much it supposed to be and they will be willing to match your price.

HD2 inquiries

I have a few questions. Where can I get an HD2 for a good price? It seems like no matter where I look, it's still selling for $300. Since it's a GSM phone, can I use it with AT&T by unlocking it? I have a tilt 2 but I'd really like to try this phone out, that's why I'm asking and this will definitely be a step up for me.

You can definitely pick one up for lower than 300$. If I were you I would look on craigslist in your area or even eBay. The prices of a new hd2 should be around the 250 mark maybe a little lower. You can also unlock the hd2 so you can use it with at&t. If you want a hd2 that will work with at&t 3g look for a Telstra hd2 (9193) that work great but that maybe around the 275$ mark.

lol, you can have mine for $250 shipped

I brought mine on ebay for $120. Sniped it at the last second. Normally though I've seen them sell on there about or under $175 even. You just have to wait really. Look at an odd time if you can like on a Tuesday morning bout 2am. Lol. Not a lot of people are up then bidding so you might have better luck. Plus a lot of people don't know for your best price you really should end an auction on a weekend like late Sunday when people are most likely to be online.

common man....they are all over Craigslist for $150 **mint condition** infact i am getting one today.... for a friend !!

Not real sure where you live but here in Maryland they're far and few in-between on Craigslist. But it does separate into cities so the sellers by you won't show up for me. :-(

Official Word from HTC: US Release by End of April

Oh well...guess we definitely aren't getting it this month
http://bgr.com/2013/03/22/htc-one-release-date-392552/
HTC has seen unprecedented demand for and interest in the new HTC One, and the care taken to design and build it is evidenced in early reviews. The new HTC One will roll out in the UK, Germany and Taiwan next week and across Europe, North America and most of Asia-Pacific before the end of April. We appreciate our customers’ patience, and believe that once they have the phone in their hands they will agree that it has been worth the wait.

I'm actually quickly growing tired of the ever longer delays and push-backs. If this keeps up, I'll just get something else. Some of us don't have the luxury of waiting another month because we need a phone asap.

So it's gonna hit the US probably around the time the GS4 hits. Nice. <-Sarcasm.

Not nice for HTC, going toe to toe with the S4 is going to cost them a lot of sales.

NO!!!!
I need one before the 20th for a trip, I don't want to get something else for this. :crying:

Android manufacturers need to fire their planning teams. Every single Android product I have ever bought has been delayed.

I hope they have fun trying to convince carriers to advertise their phone over the massively popular GS4.

I just confirmed May 6 as the launch date with three different AT&T stores in my area of Louisiana.

Bad move on htc's part. This isnt going to go well for them with the s4 launch.

That's what happens when too much time goes by between announcement and launch; and not just to HTC. The goal should be to build up buzz and then get it in people's hands so word-of-mouth carries the momentum. At launch (or right prior to) is when the big ad spend should kick in to (re)gain and keep attention. Had the schedule stuck they would have been a month ahead of Samsung and not drowned out buy what I'm sure will be Samsung's expansive media spend.

HTC spent $40MM in advertising last year (a pittance). They're going to get lost against Samsung’s budget. The fact that VZW, the largest U.S. carrier, won't have the One (if they get it) until two months after everyone else won't help. The good news for HTC, at least in the U.S., is most people are using subsidized phones so they’re in the market for a new phone when their contract allows them to be. So it's a steady stream of potential customers and the launch euphoria for both the One and SGS4 won't really affect their purchase decision as much as word-of-mouth and how the two phones actually perform.
And HTC fans and Samsung haters are going to buy the One anyway. Just as Samsung fans and HTC haters are going to buy the SGS4; no matter when both are available. People open to both are most likely to be impacted by Samsung's advertising and larger media coverage and the 30 day head start would have helped HTC.

Pretty disappointing. I may be able to wait, but there is absolutely no chance the general population will choose the one over the sgs4 when they see them side by side. Especially after seeing 10000 commercials on tv for the next galaxy phone.
I feel sorry for htc, that was a horrible decision. They're just digging their own grave on this one.

Galaxy note 3 Simfree UK Price?

Hey everyone, anyone got any idea how much the note 3 will be simfree in the UK I've got an s3 at the moment and I bloody hate it need something a lot more powerful with a better screen and screen size. I'd be willing to pay like 500-550 although wouldn't be willing to pay over the odds like 700 for it or what they normally try to charge. So yeah anyone got any idea on how much the note 3 will be simfree only as I really don't want to be stuck in and tied down to a contract.

It's gonna cost you about 649 Pounds without contract also worth a mention according to them "The first 500 customers to pre-order a Galaxy Note 3 and Gear will get a £50 reward when they trade in any old phone at the Samsung Experience Store Launch Event."
For more info about pre ordering the Note 3 http://www.samsungnote3andgear.co.uk/

I've pre ordered from handtec, they have always been pretty decently priced. especially when you choose royal mail. no one acts as your gst/tax customs unlike DHL. so you save heaps. fck buying it here. price is always like 300+ more. joke country haha.
plus its never in nz until like 3 months AFTER the rest of the world has it

I went with clove again this time. Although Handtec is cheaper but after my horrible experience with them for my GN1 (I don't know if you remember it, I have mentioned it last year) I have decided never to buy from them again.
I have also had a pretty bad experience with DHL last year for the delivery of GN2, so this time I went with the slightly more expensive FedEx ;p

Had to return 2 consecutive GN1 to them which cost me over 200 bucks because the first one had a bad screen bleed and second with bad dead pixels.
DHL last time had a 2 days deals with the shipping of my GN2 and lost the tracking those 2 days! So decided to spend a couple of dollars more and go with FedEx this time
So what colour have you chosen this time?

wow that's epic **** luck. I got a 29" monitor the other day and came home, always dread turning on first time and seeing a dead pixel. I had about 8. had to drive alllll the way back. just a major mission. overseas would be even worse lol, no compensations for our shipping eh.
I went black, I've always done black/silver/dark. anything white and I feel like someone might comment on my iphone -_-
I think I waited last time only white was available for the note 2? or something like that, I just held off until the silver was available, think it was the note 2?
what color did you go?
what, spigen screen protectors are mid october in your hands? fck need a temp screen protector asap. link me to what you got? curious to see.
I was going to do a hybrid case but I don't like our already large phone, to be larger. that's why I've always got back replacements, never back/sides or even a complete case that covers the back piece.
from what I read, the spigen screen protector I got from amazon is available 20 september, say 10 days to get here. makes 30th, then if the note 3 is released 25th, say 5 days which is what I can remember how long it took last time, might both be bang on? and 10 days for the spigen is stretching it, I reckon it'll be like 5 days or 7 max
