Clove now has pricing and orders

It's 440 pounds (+ VAT for the EU), shipping first week of October. My phone should arrive by my birthday.

Using Note from the EU work on AT&T USA
Looking to buy international, but not sure if it will work on AT&T USA and have 4G service working on it. I don't have LTE in my area so I don't care about that.

Good news...op,did clove withdraw your money with the pre order?

No, I pre-ordered last week, but they only charged me today after confirming price and availability.

The model that is on preorder at Clove, the n7100, does NOT have any lte capability. 3G only.
The n7105 model with lte comes out a bit later.

Super expensive, 670€, 100 more than euro prices of holland, germany or austria.
Greedy clove as always, not buying there.

i just purchased it -VAT as it's shipping to AU
480GBP = 746AUD inc shipping

Who's selling it cheaper? If you are not in the UK, you don't pay VAT so its 551€ + shipping. I paid £464 including shipping to NZ.

Now that the wait is on, I'm more concerned with CM10 support

On the handtec website....it says it has 4G LTE but it is the N7100 model as well:
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.ph...16gb--n7100--sim-free-unlocked--marble-white-
I'm a bit confused, I thought the new Note 2 has LTE support, which is something new!???

They must be wrong.

For what it's worth, PhoneArena said it has LTE support as well.
Not saying they're right, but who knows

I got an email back from clove this morning stating that the veraion they are stocking is 3g and not lte.
"As 4G / LTE has only begun trials in the UK very recently the version of the Note 2 we are receiving next week will not be LTE compatible. EE will probably have a locked down LTE version of the Note 2 at some point in the future, hopefully this year, which means a SIM free version may become available. If it does and we have access to it then we will place it for sale on the website

I pre-ordered mine from clove, but ended up actually buying one (well, ordering and paying for one) from , because of some issues paying for it on the website. Handtec have got the same dates listed, so it's just a case of waiting for it to arrive now.

No. It doesn't support AWS and it doesn't support Band IV LTE. The ZL will at least to the LTE side of things. With T-Mobile you have to be pretty careful as their network is quite different to most.

Finally Z1 is coming to Thailand

I live in Thailand and have been waiting for Z1 release here. I don't want to import from EU due to high import duty and lack of warranty in case I get defective phone. I just went to Sony Store to see if I could pre-order one. They told me that Z1 will officially launch at Thailand Mobile Expo 2013 from Oct 3~6 and I can pre-order at Sony booth. I'll order mine on very first day Hope it'll come with latest firmware and fix superior auto by the time it is released.

are you going to Thailand Mobile Expo 2013 on the first day?? i'm thai. i've been waiting for the z1. i hope it'll be available to buy in the expo not just
for pre-order.

I'm in Thailand, I bought from Clove in the UK and although I paid VAT in Thailand I was exempt from VAT in the UK so actually worked out cheaper even with postage
warranty is a concern but if it comes to the worst I'll post it to Clove
Nice to see Thailand stepping up a little

Its great that its a 6503 because for those of us in the US who have the international 6503, we don't really have warranties. Maybe now we can somehow get warranty work done if needed, since the models are so close.

Sony's Xperia care has you covered, it's a global warranty program that will cover you, regardless of where you got your phone.
I say this because I bought an unlocked D6503 off eBay (Taiwan 大哥大 branding), it suffered water damage, and Sony replaced it. (The white water detection papers weren't wet, the phone must have leaked somewhere else.) So, now I have English versions of the manuals

good news for those waiting to buy / on the fence about the Z2. (like me.)
with the possibility of Sony shipping millions more of these units, maybe they've tightened up their manufacturing/quality control process, and worked out a solution to the overheating camera, the self-cracking glass, the earpiece volume, etc.
one can hope?

Newegg has it for $599

but thier return policy sucks

I'd really like to know more about the Sony warranty that was mentioned earlier. I am almost positive they will try to deny a warranty for a phone that was purchased outside of your region. For example if you bought a 6503 two months ago before the USA 6503 was announced, and then called Sony USA to have a warranty replacement done, they would just claim that the model nunmber isn't in their database and there is nothing they can do. I went through this with Morola last year.

Unless somebody can show a Sony document saying this product (or Sony Xperia smartphones in general) have an international warranty, they almost certainly don't.

I hope it does as I know a few people that would like one but can only afford a phone through a carrier subsidy. I hope the 6GB/128GB goes up for pre-order soon for the US and Canada. This is the only phone over the past few years that has interested me enough to do away with carrying two phones daily. A Nexus 6 and a Nexus 6P are both great phones, but being able to have two SIM's in one very decent device all around is what I have been hoping to see for quite some time.
The Telus and T-Mobile reps I have spoken with don't list it on what they have coming in the next few months though. Wind in Canada will probably get them in limited supply though. Being available at BestBuy and other major retailers across the US will also make them easy to find.

Seems to go along with the price that has been thrown out there. $650

If the prices from the "international pre-order" are right, we stand at 409€/449$ for 4gb/64gb version. For the 6gb/128gb version, considering adjusted conversion prices, we are at 549€/619$.
That puts us with a 140€/170$ difference between the two versions.
I mean i'm not intersted in the "premium" version but even if the only differences are RAM, ROM and Force Touch, it seems like a pretty sweet deal to me !

I highly doubt it'll be sold through and subsidized by carriers. This will be the typical unlocked device scenario.

it has not even been confirmed that the 6gb version will sell internationally....
