Hello
I am thinking of biting the bullet and going for the G6. The more I look at it, the more I like it.
I am thinking of the DS model, the korean one with the HiDac but my concern is simple - warranty.
Anyone knows what the warranty policy is in LG UK for products that come from Asia?
Sorry if this has been asked before.
I don't think there would be any LG warranty.
eBay listings of V20 H990ds (Korean) models for sale in the UK all state that the warranty is that offered by the seller and not LG. This suggests the LG warranty is null. So I'd guess it would be the same for the G6.
Ofc the best way to know is reading the LG warranty itself.... good luck with that lol
You have to pay at your cost to return it to the seller . So make sure the seller offers a warranty. LG will do nothing in the UK.
My experience of LG in the UK is that they do nothing regardless of where the phone came from. I have a LG-G4 with the boot-loop issue. LG pointed me to my supplier who told me that it was an LG issue that they didn't cover after 6 months. I am also tempted by the G6 but LG's quality control and warranty issues have stalled me for now.

I'm looking to buy a Note pretty soon and since it looks like there won't be an official release in the USA any time soon it looks like I'l have to import one. My major concern with this is what to do if there is a problem and want to return it. I see that some appear to have issues with the display and with any new device there's always the concern that they haven't got all the bugs worked out so being an early adopter caries with it some defect risks. So, what's the deal with importing from Germany or the UK and are there any sellers to stay away from or prefer?
Thanks,
Brian
same concern here. i am really close to buying from either from clove or handtech, both UK retailers. do they provide any kind of warranty/satisfaction guarantee? also, what about the manufacturer warrany? do these brand new phones not come with a Samsung warranty? thx

They are EU phones so come with a Samsung 2 year international warranty which doesn't include the US. Handtec and I'm sure probably Clove as well cover the phone for the full 2 years. If you need warranty service you ship it back to them in the UK and they handle the repair through Samsung for you.

Hello,
I am also looking for note and my condition is same they don't provide any manufacturer warranty.
So I am concerned about the quality, I also doubt that it could be refurbished or korean copy of the cell phone
Sellers are saying that the import it from Indonesia. Also they are saying that its genuine and will connect via samsung Kies as well so I am thinking to go for it.
What will you suggest?
Buy the way did you purchased the cell?
Thanks
Looking to buy a Xoom, and this website has new ones for cheap: http://www.sale-point-online.com/pr...o=p14010_motorola-xoom-wifi--32gb-tablet.html
Website seems legit, but it is in Thailand. If I bought one of these and needed warranty repair, would Motorola honor it?
ive seen that site before. Id call them and ask what version it is and also your warranty question as well.
Hello folks,
My gf's sister will come from NY at the beggining of april probably first week so i need to order a g2 soon. Smartphones are very expensive in my country due to nonsense taxes for example unlocked LG G2 32GB D802 is nearly $818 So you would understand why i want to buy phone from abroad.
I've considered three phones including Nexus 5 (actually ordered one and than cancelled), Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and finally choose to get a LG G2. I have some questions for you...
1- Where can i get a genuine unlocked 32GB LG G2 D802 with good price from a trusted seller ? By good price i mean under $500.
I found this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190985045933
and this: amazon
But in the comments of amazon a buyer wrote that this is not a D802, it is a D801 so i loose my trust on amazon seller. Problem here is i need to buy from a trusted seller because i may not have enough time to return a phone and get a new one plus i don't want to cause trouble to my gf's sister. She recently had a baby and last thing i want is to bother her with shipping it back than and checking a new phone if it is proper.
2- - I will be using G2 in Turkey and in here market is full of D802. I guess best suitable option is D802 isn't it ? What is main difference between unlocked variants of G2 ? I searched a little bit and found out network bands are different and most capable one is D802. Am i right ?
3- One more quick question. What is amount of user available space in 16gb and 32gb versions ?
Thank you for your interest
Cheers...

Has anyone of you here buyed a G3 from ebay , ive seen one for US $151.63 and i dunno if its legit , its a LG G3 D851 selling from Hong Kong
It is always better to buy phone specially LG G3 or G2 from a local dealer instead of online shops. Because if there is any problem in that like as it is refurbished or board is changed then you won't be able to do anything in case of online shopping but writing but reviews.
So buying local can be a bit expensive but good.

well the seller has good reviews on his profile about this product and offers a 30Day refund
Here is the link (i dunno if i can pos it here so if im in the wrong tell me and il delete it)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-5-LG-G3-D...094528?hash=item419ace6fc0:g:iyoAAOSwzJ5XbkMb
And a brand new one G3 here cost around 300E so yeah better try my luck , and its not like they sell brand new here they are mostly products that others states doesn't not sell or refubished and they transport them in my state to sell
I bought my d855 about 9 months ago from eBay. I paid 180GBP and it was much more expensive then. No problems so far.
thats good to hear btw since you own a G3 i want to ask something , hows the battery life if you do little things like reading ebooks at low brightness , can i go 6H+?
I bought my d851 for 120US$ with 2 days local warranty from a retail shop I don't know where are u buying from g3 is pretty cheap now

Bought my d850 off eBay for $150 U.S. dollars months ago. Only thing wrong with it was the back cover had a small puncture. So I ordered another back cover without the at&t logo. Looks better and runs great with Validus rom.

I want to get the H850 European version looks to be my best option for a unlocked boot-loader and unlocked carrier phone as all the H830 G5's in my area are still locked to T-Mobile and Titan color H830 seem to be non existent.
So I check on eBay and found a H850 but after contacting the seller and asking if it is the European version and finding out it is a US version?, I am back on the hunt...
So how does one find a H850 European version to purchase here in the US?
I would recommend taking a look at Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.de to check if they ship to the US, as if they do, you can order the phone there and this also means that you'll definitely receive an unlocked European version of the phone.
My suggestion being an owner of an H850 is to pass on this device for now and possibly look into the Note 7 or LG V20 once it's released. Aside from the hardware being great there are really no projects being seriously headed right now. CM13 is a long way off on account of camera drivers and system framework issues and the modified stock roms really have no performance value since they are basically just stock with a few app changes here and there. There's also no kernels with overclock or other features. I wish I had looked into this more since rooting with Xposed is really the only software benefit I've managed to muster. I should've just opted for the T-Mobile variant since they have root and then I wouldn't have overpaid $200 for the 850 (purchased for $600, ouch).
if u know someone in the uk the EE store sells the G5 at a bargain price of £399 / $520.
you would need to purchase a £10 top up voucher then register and then use that credit to pay the £8.99 unlock code to get the phone unlocked for any sim.
Short of buying a Chinese import with lacklustre skinned software and bad support (LeEco, ZTE, etc) this is a bargain for a 2016 flagship.
Thanks for all the replies. I am still looking for a H830 Titan Unlocked LG G5 but they seem to be a rare one for some reason....
The search continues...
Ended up getting a new H830 already unlocked for $400 in Silver. Was hoping for Titan but silver will do.
