" The Sony Xperia Z will launch in Australia in March 2013 on Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. Telstra has already published a "register your interest" Web page for the Xperia Z, but no pricing has been announced."

They are doing the launch party on the 20th, the device is likely to launch a few weeks later. 1st of March seems to be the word.

I have been without a smart phone for 5 months now waiting for the HTC Butterfly unitl HTC screwed the variants, and now have been waiting for the HTC One, until crap specs.
I pre-ordered the Zperia Z from Sony Store hoping to get it last week or even this week. But if you are correct in saying that it will be close to April. I am cancelling my order and purchasing it from Expansys, plus it is $50 cheaper.
I have just ordered phone from Expansys 3-4 days delivery and in stock. Off to Sony now for my refund.
Let me know how the refund goes and what Sony say

Got the cash back yesterday, when I placed the pre-order they made it clear that the deposit was fully refundable.
The only thing they could tell me, was that the phone should be available before the end of the Month.
All I know is mine will be in my hot little hands in a couple of days
Do we know where Mobicity/Expansys/other online stores got their units from? As in.. which country?
@danw_oz
Thanks ill be patient and wait for mine ugh lol.
@nizarnoor
I believe it was Asia - Hong Kong I cant remember, if you goto mobicity click on Xperia z and click on the q and a , scroll through it and itll mention where their shipment is from.

Yes my phone was shipped from Hong Kong, and is in Brisbane today for delivery
Alright thanks! Let us know when it arrives!
I'm still torn between waiting or getting it online.
got mine in Mobilezone Chester hill for $699, but they only have the black one in stock, Vodafone branded.
Arrived yesterday. Loving it already, only thing I don't like is the app's, hard to know if it is a true app or Sony bundled trying to sell you crap .
Screen is stunning, everyone I have shown the phone today are amazed, iphone and smasung users. I was reserved when it first came, because it didn't look that flash with the mat shipping screen guard, viewing angles were not good, once I remove this front and back and put on the supplied screen protectors, it is just stunning, even outside it is way better than any of my previous HTC phones.
My one is the white model
Hi. I just got my Xperia Z... I bought it online (mobicity). Looks like it's from France. I got the charging dock. But there's no screen protector inside the package. How come? And since it's from France, I wonder if that means I got the inferior screen panel...?

Sweet score on the dock. Best to ask Mobicity, maybe they put it on when they removed sim lock???
Sony rep liked my phone when I took it in to show him, nice guy, but on of the other guys had an attitude about it. As far as I am concerned if Sony don't get their act together what do they expect.

My order (Black) on eXpansys shows "In stock in 8 days", so the date should be before the 29th, that was now said to be the "official" one...
What about your ones?
Do you think that will be really getting it before everyone else, since they are the official HTC distributors?
Expected 7 Days
silver
Mines 9 days (Black)
I wouldn't be buying from eXpansys if I were you guys...

Blame the manufacturer, not the one who sold it to you.
Bought my galaxy note from them, the note died 5 months after purchase (still within 12 month warranty) and they literally refused to honour the warranty. And now it just sits there.
Samsung also refuse to help me because it was purchased from an international store.
So now I'm stuck with a phone that doesn't work and I cannot get fixed even when I offered to pay both Samsung and eXpansys.
If I was to purchase internationally again, I'd go clove or handtec like I've done in the past.

Why? I've been using them for years. Only ever had one problem where they sent me a used phone, which they rectified to my satisfaction.
Bought my Note 2 and HTC One X from them.. no problems at all.. i can say their customer service is trash tho..
Its like they only have 8 people working there.. 1 manage shipping, the rest just answer calls
but this was eXpansys USA.. so idk if its the same in your country
From eXpansys website:
SIlver: Stock Expected In 6 Days
Black: Stock Expected In 7 Days
UPDATE: eXpansys just communicated that, even for them, launch date will be on 29th, as for everybody else.
Can't wait
Yesterday it said 7 days.
Now, today it says 16 days...
I can't wait any longer
EDIT: I just read they will launch it on the 29th, like everyone. It still suck though but maybe it's better because I have exams till the 29th.
**** , i need htc one now

Yes I think so, but it sucks since I'm counting down since the first rumours got out.
I love HTC and it's not a good thing for the company to postpone the release.

It's because they gave it 5 out of 5 stars, right? Damn you Handtec.
Haven't seen anything like that before. They mail me saying that the One is in stock and after 2 days they say they gona deliver by end of March. Why telling me that it's in stock in the first place then?
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."

Check out clove UK. I've pre-ordered mine there last night... It will probably end up costing me 725 aussie dollars with FedEx shipping

"Both white and black models of the Galaxy Note 3 are now available to pre-order at a preliminary £495 + delivery & VAT where applicable"

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
feeling a custom ROM first day I get it, just like I did with the note 2. custom ROM first day. sweet phone there after xD

Yeah, prices are way too high here! I'm from Melbourne! I have actually lived in Auckland for 2 years about 10 years ago and I loved it! Where abouts in Auckland are you?
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?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
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

Hey Guys,
Just wanted a to created a thread for people in the UK buying/pre-ordering the Z1! I pre-ordered mine from Phones4u, got the smartwatch 2 with metal strap + bluetooth speakers as I got a 4G tariff + 65 quid of content. What did you guys get?
Also this is my my first time pre-ordering a smartphone so I was wondering do you usually get it on the release day or they only dispatch it then? This is for carriers like EE O2 Vodafone and for companies like Phones4u and Carphonewarehouse...
Thanks and share your own pre order story and delivery date / when you have it delivered etc!!

I believe when you receive it depends on the shipping you select. For example, I pre-ordered the Xperia Z1 from HandTec UK and it is expected to release September 16. I chose 1-3 day shipping so it should come sometime next week hopefully.
i pre ordered from clove uk, i'm from brazil, i think only receive in next week

I don't agree with that - I asked Clove about their shipping order policy and it is on a first come first serve basis no matter where you live, so if you are the first person to pre-order a Z1 and live in Brazil yours will be the first out the door - why would it make a difference where you are from ???????

O2 tell me:
1) Order is processing - so they do not know about delivery
2) Order will be 3-5 days (email states this is ONLY for people not in uk mainland..)
3) Courier is uk mai - this maybe true
4) SHould arrive tomorrow - call them tomorrow to confirm
5) Will arrive this week
In summary - the guy had no idea!

I pre ordered my G2 about a month ago and rang Car phone warehouse to confirm my delivery for tomorrow which they did state at the time of ordering that i would receive the phone on the 1st October. The lady dealing with me put me on hold and came back a few minutes later and told me that no stock had been received and it will be a few weeks before they start to ship them out.
Has anyone else pre ordered and found out that the phone has been delayed?
all over the Netherlands thats the case. I got mine by sheer luck. Was searching all merchants and found one awesome one that had it in stock. maybe with luck you can do the same.
I was looking for the Z1 last Friday in the Netherlands, at the mediamarkt They didn't have any, however by surprise, the lg g2 was already available and in stock.by the looks of the device and the fact the screen is superb I immediately got one on contract. They only had 2 though, so i guess there isn't a lot in stock, since the major Dutch providers, and phonestores don't present it as in stock. Lg Netherlands however posted a tweet that both the 16 and the 32 gb version should be available this week.

Its amazing how one person can tell you one thing and the next another lol She even tried to encourage me to cancel my order. She went away to ask a manger and she even raised a ticket to "higher up" to see why they advertised the phone for the 1st October when they knew they wouldn't be available,Id be amazed if i had a delivery email from them this week and i know this has happened before with them on the HTC One!

I'm in Australia and have had one on preorder from an aussie supplier here for about a week. I just got the despatch email this morning saying it was on it's way ..... from Hong Kong!!!
Maybe they are delays getting them shipped out in large volumes overseas?
Just spoke to carphone warehouse and they now have it in stock! being shipped for delivery tomo! although without the free printer and case as this is not in stock yet and i would have to wait for that to come in stock before they could send the phone! seems like a convenient way of delaying the order.

Just spoke to carphone warehouse and they now have it in stock! being shipped for delivery tomo! although without the free printer and case as this is not in stock yet and i would have to wait for that to come in stock before they could send the phone! seems like a convenient way of delaying the order.

May I ask why you are returning your 5S?
I ask because I have a 5S coming Friday but have also been looking at the G2.
Thanks in advance.

I ordered from handtec and I just checked my card, they have charged it which, according to their FAQs they only do when they ship the product. I do hope that is the case.

I hope ur right, I also ordered thru Handtec but paid with Amazon which they had to charge immediately.
Just checked my credit card, nothing taken for Handtec but Carphone Warehouse have taken my money (yes, I've been greedy and placed two orders to see which is dispatched first [emoji13])

Have just checked and the order says processing...am not sure what it was previously though so don't know if it has changed
UPDATE: Just spoke to Chloe in Handtec...orders are still due to ship in Mid May so no point getting our hopes up today [emoji22]

I would not get too excited about that. My card was charged by Carphone Warehouse on the 23rd March!
I just spoke to a helpful gentleman over the phone from CPW. He confirmed that they do actually have stock in the warehouse but cannot release it until Sony give the OK of which there is no date...even more annoying if it is true as Sony are doing themselves no favours in holding back the release [emoji35]

Spoke to Vodafone twice today. First time this morning was told no stock has been received and Sony would update them later today so ask again tonight.
Just spoke to then and the woman was useless. Said she had to check if it's been shipped from the warehouse, even though I told her I just wanted an update on the delay and she said they have been doing since the 10th... Completely incompetent.
Expecting an argument on the legality of the contact now as I plan on canceling if they can't at least give me a simple purpose update on the status!

I'm truly amazed at the cluster this launch has turned out to be. I am still in awe at the way this is being handled by Sony and I'm a Sony customer. Wish all the best in getting resolution. I canceled pre-order and went with EBay. The device is worth the wait but supply chain at Sony should be chastised for not handling this better.

Am thinking that maybe the pre-orders with CPW are only relating to contract phones and that us sim free buyers may have to wait until the sim free launch in May as retailers always favour the contract sales as that where the money is.
I did ask a clueless person in Phones4U about the sim free model and he said they wouldn't be able to sell it sim free until 2 weeks after they get the phones in. He did also state that is would be around £700 sim free, so maybe take his comments with a pinch of salt.
Really hope I'm wrong
Ok , I pre-predered & PAID for my Z2 on the 26th February to give you some reference, My last email from Sony support said they would be dispatching from W/C 14/4/14,
However I have just been on the phone to Sony e-commerce Michael and his latest information on my Z2 is that they wont be dispatching until the end of April..:crying:
So take from that what you will as regards to your orders....

Normally disadvantages would be:
Compatility issues..... make sure you're getting the correct model for your region/network
The wait....... ummmmmmm, might actually be quicker
Fake........ Obviously you run this risk anywhere, but be more cautious when ordering from overseas
warranties, guarantees etc..... if they're valid it would cost loads to ship back if it needed repairs
think thats about it..... oh n customs
