Let's post here any updates we might have about places to buy, shops, online retailers, and how much.
UK retailers selling unlocked (SIM free) phones:
Sony - £429 - black, yellow, coral, white - £6 standard 3-5 days, £11 express 1-2 days delivery)
Clove - £429 - black, coral - (£5 standard delivery, £7 special delivery) ***free headphones bundled in***
Amazon - £449 - black, coral - (free standard delivery, free expedited delivery for Prime members)
Carphone Warehouse - £449 - black, coral, white - (free next day delivery or store collection)
Amazon has a 30 day return window. The others have only a 14 day return window. However, you can return the item to a store, obviously not the case for the exclusively online retailers.
I'll update as I find more. [Updated: 23/09]

Handtec and Expansys (mostly relevant in Europe) have put them up. The compact is the cheapest on Handtec I think but not by much. Euro 600 still seems like an awfully high price for the compact. I bought the z3 compact from Handtec right after release for under 500 euro.

bring it to the US, pronto!
obviously Sony mobile's own store has them up for preorder in many countries, but sadly not available in the US yet. Boo. I had a Z3c that unfortunately got run over by a car two weeks ago, so was hoping to just go in on the new model here. I was never very happy with the Z3c's camera performance, but otherwise loved that phone. If anyone catches an update to when\if we should expect to see it go on sale in the states, let me know...

I hear ya on the size - it's still a lovely device though.
Good to know that when I buy out my O2 contract, the value of the device is well worth what it'll take me to buy out the contract.
Hello Vario II / Hermes.
Guys, I'm putting this up on eBay on Monday, but would much rather sell to a forum member! If anyone here wants it please make an offer before then.
No (sensible) offer refused.
I can only offer you £250. Please don't be insulted by the low offer. I'm looking to buy another PDA for my wife, and my budget is tight. Probably too low for you, but it's all that I can afford. I could meet you in North London tonight (Sunday) or Central London tomorrow daytime (Monday) and would give you cash.
Noony, you have PM.
Thanks for the quick reply. I've replied by PM.
Now sold.
I am a college student in Dallas, Texas that is currently trying to sell my X7501. It has served me well through class lectures and the "occasional" internet browsing. It saved me numerous times navigating through inner city streets when my old phone died too. Sad to say, it is now time for me to let it go and let someone else enjoy it.
This comes with all the original box, literature, and cables. I will also include a 2 Gb microSD with the miniSD converter and will put it in the unit.
I have only owned this for a couple of months and am the original buyer. As for the price, I will say $725 shipped in the US. Payment via paypal.
The specs and everything I'm sure you know already, but for any other questions or if you are interested just PM me or e-mail me at [email protected]

are u NUTS!!!
First of all they have released the x7510, so this is old, and they are going for 450.00 on ebay w/ warranty, 550 nib...helloooo
Pretty sure I'm not crazy
Yes, I took a look at ebay before I posted. I do know that the X7510 is out, but it is just a refresh or this, same hardware, different harddrive, and a conference cam in front. I'm open for offers.

OK, we know the 7510 is out - but can you provide links to ones on ebay going for that price -I might buy one myself!
Forgot to mention
I already have ap4 installed and working flawlessly for those that don't want to mess with that aspect of it. Other included softwares are tomtom6 and a sketching program. Oh yes! I've even thrown in that 2GB MiniSD ( well more like a microSD converted to miniSD)
Come on now, give some offers to this poor college student.
(Please don't tell me that I made myself poor by buying this machine in the first place...at full price)
No he's not crazy.
I agree send me the link for a 7510 for $550 and I'll quickly send my money to Russia and never get the unit
I just happily paid $700 AU for a 7500 (used). These things have kept their value well and you really can't touch one on fleabay for under $600US.
Request to end this thread
I request that this thread be removed.

I can negotiate the price. What's the price your looking to for?
You can easily find a 8925/AT&T Tilt on Ebay or Craigslist for that price.

Wi-Fi Only Model - £500
UK Launch will have Flash at Launch - Android Central
If you take the VAT off and convert to USD - WiFi + 3G=$780 / WiFi Only=$650
I'm a bit confused by this. Didn't motorola say the wifi only model would be 600 USD? I'm going to be bummed if its in the 700's. Perhaps this is only a placeholder seeing as it got pulled

Sorry, that is a direct currency conversion from GBP into USD, not an accurate USD price.

Yeah, typically the EU or UK price is higher than the direct conversion. I would guess convert and then take 15% off. I bet it will be $599
so when do we get it here
im sick of waitingg

This is about right. People freak out when they do a straight currency conversion from GBP to USD or EUR to USD, but they fail to recognize that there is often VAT and other taxes included in the GBP price.
It should be noted that based on the Engadget article that I read that the 449GBP price is 50GBP cheaper than the 32gb iPad in the UK.
Edit: Thought I'd add I did the conversion based on the 449GBP price, removing the VAT and converting to USD, we're looking at a retail price of ~$583USD, which lines up with what we've heard about a $600USD WiFi price.
Okay sweet! Very excited to get my hands on one of these things. I've already gone to use the tablet in store three times bsessed:
Sent from my Epic 4G
Its been priced again, this time by Dixons at £499.99 (which if you take off the VAT and convert to USD is $653)
They say this:
Due for release in the 1st week of April (date TBC), if you order from us today you'll be the first in Europe to receive one.

Android Central Report
Have seen contradictory info online as to if this will ever appear in the UK?
Just buy it from oppostyle.com, free DHL Express shipping.I don't think they'll be opening a store though yet.
I doubt Oppo will have direct retail or distribution in Europe or North America. Absolutely, no way. Why? Look at the content below, the wall charger and headphones are literally EXACT duplication of Apples. Apple would have them thrown in court faster than you can blink.
Oppo aspiration is just to be a small time shop in the safety of their home country, China.

They have lots of stores in China, and a few in Thailand. I don't see what the charger has to do with anything, they could be buying from the same OEM. And they are far from "small time" either,to aspire for international presence doesn't mean they're a small company. Ask Pantech,or Huawei,or Gigabyte.
Will there be customs taxes for England and how much would that be?
http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-duty-and-tax-calculation/
Check out that site, keep in mind that OPPO declares a lower value for your device (I believe it was 250$ ?).

I got confused a lil bit with the result. What does the Total Landed Cost mean? Will it be the handset's price (399dollars) + shipping (30dollars for example) + the total taxes? Or just the taxes? Cos the total result i am getting is kinda too much!
If bought from Hong Kong rather direct from China I assume it will have an English language option?
Also will it get any kind of update support I assume not outside the region?
Total landed cost is the declared value(!!which is lower than what you pay for it!!) plus taxes.
You should look at Total import duty & taxes due.
Here's what I did for you: http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-i...on/saved_calculations/view_details/185070094/
(Not sure if the link will still work when you check it.)
It came out at around 34 pounds sterling.
(Kind of expensive if you ask me.. I only paid 23 euros (17 pounds or so)
OPPO Style declare $150 if you ask them to.

Mine arrived on Monday. It cost me £26.15p customs & vat charge. They declared it as US$150. DHL sent me a text on Monday morning advising to pay the charges before they can deliver it so I just popped down to the depot (10min drive) paid the fees & collected it myself.
