I ordered one last week and just got message that I'm getting it delivered to my workplace today. I got it in finland, shop called markantalo. Haven't seen anywhere else yet. Please share your information to buyers wanting the blue one.

I have the pebble blue from the batch that vodafone sent out for pre orders.
Got my pebble blue S3 last friday from cyberport.at. They should get their next batch on 14.06 (I've just ordered now one for my sister). I absolutely love this amazing piece of tech !

Stock arrived to fill pre orders from Warehouse Stationery in NZ on Friday. Picked mine up after work. So glad I waited & didn't get the white, the blue is more of a slate grey, very fetching.

Samsung *still* haven't managed to get blue units to Clove yet. I preordered on 4th May
If they don't arrive this week, I think I'll just not bother and will simply keep my S2.

I'm on the same boat here! They messed up really bad with this launch and I'm tired of waiting! Nice job samsung!
Pebble blue available all over India from last Friday onwards ......

Appears that some customers in finland has recieved emails that blue versions are shipped today from couple different resellers. That might indicate that blue models are increasingly available in some locations allready.
E: as someone mentioned about availability in india, it appears to be same here as some operators has listed it as available too. I guess that it won't take more than a week when it reaches most countries.

I received mine 4 days ago, in romania
Closed, we have a whole thread for avalability etc here.
Is there any word on any stores in the UK selling the device (unlocked) on launch day? I'd order it from the Play Store but I'd much rather go out somewhere and buy it on the day. I'd expect Currys or CPW to be selling it but there's no word on the websites. Nothing off contract anyway.
I did this with the N7, CPW had it on launch day and it was nice.
Forget cpw and p4u. If there is something wrong with tour phone its easier to brake in to the bank than returning device to them ....

The Play Store is the only place to get it that cheap. All other stores are charging much more.
Hopefully they'll have enough stock

Dumped htc for saying an update would be released by certain time then waiting months...now with samsung they release an update in a couple of countries yet us in the UK still waiting a month later...? Why.??? Even my unlocked, unbranded note 2...!!!?????
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I'm on the same bandwagon. Don't worry. Samsung is a lot faster with updates than HTC. So I think you've picked the right company, but the GENERAL rule of thumb is that you should buy a phone and be happy with the software it comes with, and don't expect it to be updated. Regardless, Unlocked N7100 from Germany DBT and still nothing. I bought it based on the Note 1 which ALWAYS got the updates FIRST from DBT. Now other countries have received their update and I haven't yet. Oh well. I'm still terribly happy with this phone and software! I can't say that the update will make it much better xD It's fantastic just the way it is, but I'm an update junky! haha. So just sit back and relax It'll come.

i love my GN2 but Samsung is a S**t company when it comes for updates,they never say anything what changes are made on Updates and they only do updates only in few countries which it barely sales the phone and not to the countries which they sold most
Tell me which phone manufacturer announce exactly when updates come? Moto is even worse based on ics update. When I got the phone it was mentioned all over the website promised ics update.
Then after almost a year they release a schedule for update which promises q1 2012.. End of q1 2012 came and all no update. A month later announced q2 2012. End of q2 came and gone. A month later the update finally came for me. At that time the is still many users without ics. Even today not all received their ics.
Btw the ics update made the phone laggy. Full reset removed the Laginess for a week or so before it came back. Don't tell me it's an app I instants because the only app installed then was line, whatsapp and tango. And mx player.
And this is supposed to be a ics phone. But quirks much better in gb.

In general, updates are delayed by carrier testing, so they can make sure it causes no issues on their network, but it takes even longer for unlocked/sim-free phones as they're tested on many more networks.
However I will say that if you're so adamant on getting updates ASAP you bought the wrong phone, the only phones you should look at for that are Nexus phones. Even those can have their updates significantly delayed by carrier testing though.

Root ur phone. Get official updated firmware. Flash with odin. Done. Whats so hard.

My point was the fact that the official update was released in a few countries about a month ago and yet nothing in the UK..? And yet Samsung has already started going on about the next update to be released in jan/feb !! We need this one first please..!!!

I don't really buy that story. For carrier phones yes but what about international nonbranded phones?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I'd imagine that Samsung are doing a pilot release to a few countries first. If no major issues are reported then they release it to everyone else a short time later (like a month or so).
Makes sense really when you think about it, IMHO anyhow.
Btw waiting for the update here in Ireland too if it makes you feel any better

The international htc one is not compatible with usa 4g networks afaik and any sim free phone is unlocked from the uk.
You have placed an order with us for the HTC ONE, we appreciate the order.
The original launch date was due to be the 15th March. We have today been advised officially by HTC that the UK launch date has been put back to the 29th March.
We apologise for this delay, but you will appreciate that this is out of our control.
We hope to ship all back orders as soon as the stock arrives and will update you as soon as we can with further information.

So delayed. Bravo. I think I will go for sgs4)))
Just got it too.
Well, if it means that the devices are more thoroughly checked, so be it.
I'd rather wait the extra time for a solid device.

I'd cut them a bit of slack TBH. Samsung did the same last year with the SGS3. Anyone remember the "hyperglaze" thing didn't go to plan. I think the white was delayed? Speaking of white... iPhone 4 in white... how delayed was that?!
So HTC have caught something in their QC. Cool.. just means we're going to have less chance to come on here complaining about poor hardware as they are working on it. I'd rather have a working device than something buggy that needs to be replaced.
Its a bummer but its only 2 weeks... don't wish your life away though!
I don't get this whole because the one is delayed I am going to get the S4, is the S4 likely to come out before the HTC One if so then I can understand but if it isn't then I don't get it! Also tbh I think those that are easily ready to jump ship because of a launch date rather than the phone being poor, were not really that interested in the phone in the first place imo.

Havn't looked at curries, have never had a reason to look at curries Ebuyer are doing theirs at normal prices with free next day delivery, which is nice. Probably better than what the play store will charge.
Are they reliable?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I've never had any reason to say they're anything but reliable. Perfectly good company. If amazon have it with free shipping for the same price, i will use them, but i have nothing against ebuyer and their service.
