Does anyone have a link to a site that is offering the LG Watch Sport with intertnational shipping? The Play store is not available in my country and there are no other retailers that are planning to stock it.
I would really like to buy the Watch Sport and would like to get it as soon as possible. Anyone able to help?
Thanks in advance.
Ebay? http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-Watch-Sp...SM-ATT-TMobile-Cricket-H2O-etc-/201822905319?
Any options other than eBay? The eBay seller generally don't ship worldwide.
What is the issue with availability? Is there a shortage of stock?
You'd probably have to find someone to act as a relay from a country it does ship to, and then hope it passes customs. I do this with a friend in Australia. I have a KTM Enduro with parts that are insanely expensive and hard to find here, but cheap there (1/4 the cost of here, before shipping). I have them shipped to her, and she ships them to me. Her dad does the same thing for Model T parts from someone here. However, I've known her for years, and I trust her. If you don't know anyone you'd trust to do that, I wouldn't risk it.
This seller from South Korea is selling a international version (LG Watch Sport W281). You can check it on the link below:
LG Watch Sport LTE W281 Android Wear 2.0 RAM 4GB Smart Watch Titanium Silver
Just got one from them (shipped it via FedEx) and it works on my network. Be sure to check yours. Here are the network bands for this model:
LG Watch Sport W281 (International Version)
2G - GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900
3G - UMTS/HSDPA/HSPA+ 850(B5)/900(B8)/1900/2100(B21)
4G - LTE 800(B19)/900(B8)/1800(B3)/2600(B38,B41)

Hi! I'm new on xda and I have a very important question.
I want to buy TOPAZ in Australia (by eBay) and I'm wondering if it will be working properly in Europe (Poland exactly).
Price is the main reason.
If you can, tell me also where you can buy (which country) cheapest, brand new TOPAZ
Peace!
i'm in Australia and bought mine from the UK as it was available there, but not here, and also it was cheaper there than would have been here (under AUD$800)
The UK version of the phone works just fine in Australia, so as long as Poland uses any of the frequency bands the Diamond2 supports, it'll be just fine.
i think that for me is cheaper to buy in Australia than in UK because of my currency. for 1 pound I must pay 5.3 polish zloty (PLN) and for 1 australian dollar only 2.6 PLN...if I want to buy in UK it should cost about 300pounds...do you know any good, trusted eshops?
Clove.co.uk is very trustable...
got mine from ebay:
cc-electronicshk
under $700AUD delivered including an 8gb memory card!!!
bewdiful mate
I've searched on ebay some fine offers and I think that Australian Dollar is the best option about price. However it's making another problem. CC Electronics doesn't ship to Europe...
Hello every one
I am a french citizen living in China for one year
I am dreaming to buy a Galaxy Note, but I can buy it only in China, is someone can tell me if it will work properly when I will come back to France ?
If not is there a possibility to change the system at this moment?
Sorry but I am a novice in this matter
Thank you in advance for your help
Yes as long as you buy the GSM version. Not sure if there is some CDMA weird version for the Chinese market.
Agreed, look for the GSM bandwidths, I think the EU's on 900 and 1800.

Thank you very much
Thank you very much for your help
I have very much appreciated it
Thanks again
Thank you very much for your help. i have a similar question
where are you folks planning to buy?
hey, I'm an American in Shanghai - I've been planning on buying one as well, but it seems the only choices are
a) buy a "brand-new" model, grey-market European version, 50% chance it's a refurb, but can offer local store warranty for ~3280rmb ($520 USD), or
b) buy an official, brand-new one for 4100rmb ($650 USD)
I almost pulled the trigger on the grey-market one, but it just kills me to know that I can get a brand-new NON-refurb for $500 USD through Newegg in the US... arrgh.

I bought mine on taobao from Shenzhen, 1 day shipping. I think that is safer than buyer from a store in shanghai, as the taobao sellers are selling loads of these phones.
Mine had been opened and made chinese even it is a european version. they changed some settings so you'll default to chinese language after a wipe/upgrade, and the samsung keyboard didn't work when I first good it. But after reinstalling european firmware everything is good.
I would stay away from official version because of price and I'm also not sure if all google services work on those.
Moved To Q&A
Please post all questions in the Q&A section
Be careful - there are now clones:

yeah - the quote I had for ~3300 was from a taobao seller with a brick 'n mortar store. At least there's somewhere to go if the thing is borked. The "warranty" is through the store and not samsung, but at least they know where (taobao!) to source screens/mobo and claim to give 2 years replacement service should anything go wrong. still might pull the trigger on it... unless one of my friends goes back to the states in the next couple of weeks.
Did your seller offer any kind of warranty?

For anyone who cares the Nexus 5 is officially out in Hong Kong. Its being sold by LG, rather than Google. Price is around HK$3,800 - 3,900 depending on where you buy it. Big name retailers such as Broadway are selling it. Only the 16GB model is presently available.

Why is it HK always gets the low storage. First note 3, now this! Infuriating!!
Nice! I'm in Hong Kong right now, considering this (my Google Play order wont ship until November 8). Do you know if the International version will work on US networks and LTE bands, specifically T-Mobile?

no. LTE wont work in North Americia. But 3G will work of course.
Damn. I had a feeling LTE wouldn't but was holding out hope. Oh well, guess I'll have to play the patience game some more..
Hond Kong LTE use band 3, and the US version of Nexus does not support that.
But does anyone know on the UMTS 2100, is HSPA supported by the NEXUS 5?
wonder when nexus 5 32 gb will release in hong kong.. right now for that price its still a steal!
heard from wilson guy that around nov 20 there will be google play order available in hk, with price around HKD3200..
dont yell at me how ridiculous this may be.. im just repeating their words..
is this really possible (that google play order is coming to hk)?

HK Google Play store would be a very welcome development.
I think I am probably going to wait it out for around a month or two and hopefully the N5 price is drop a bit or at least a 32GB model will make its way to HK, otherwise seems the Oz store has the best value at the moment.
Fortress
Dear All,
I was at Fortress MK (MK New Century Mall) and they are selling it for $3,880.00. The guy says ONLY 16GB and I asked about 32GB and he said no. I don't believe him since he had to check 5 minutes to give me a price on the N5. Late Nov. HK PlayStore have it? I highly doubt it. I'm waiting till close to Christmas to buy it as the price will go down and retailers will have discounts.
if u go to "smaller" shops in mongkok/wanchai etc. the price is now in the range of 3700+..
Make sure..

Yes, parallel import will be cheaper in price but watch for what you get. Remember, US version (D820) won't work in HK for LTE. We have (D821) which is international version to work for Asia. I would stay with Fortress, Broadway etc. to be safe.

As long as the smaller shop confirms its HK stock and you can get local warranty through LG I don't see an issue buying through them.
Remember the D821 is also being sold in Australia where the price is actually quite comparable to the North American prices. But you won't get local LG warranty if you get that.
Was at Broadway Shatin on Friday, asked if 32gb was available, sales said usually Hong Kong only get one version.
Agreed that it is expensive to buy from them, if really available through Play Store at end of November then Ill be one of the first to buy from there!
Was just in WCC.
Asked two shops for price, one said HK$4.2k the other said HK$3.9k!!!!! Local stock.
Wasn't going to buy and was in a bit of a hurry so didn't ask around too many places or try and negotiate for price.

Hi.
I'm planing on visiting London in the new year, and I want to buy there the Nexus 6. Buying it in IL will cost much more... So where could I find it? How much it'll cost? As a tourist, will I be able to get the taxes back? And does the phones sold in the UK are unlocked, off contract and international?
Thanks. (and sorry for my bad English, it's not my native...)
Carphone warehouse would most likely have it in stock by then in white black 32/64GB These are internationally unlocked . However that being said you need to check what bands your network uses but the N6 is a band powerhouse .
It costs £500 and £550 respectively depending on the GB variant, see below for different currency conversions:
INS: 3103.15 3413.46
Dollars: $779 $856.90
Euros: €634.06 €697.46
Regarding getting tax back after a quick Google it looks like you can claim back the 20% as you live outsite the EU. Please see http://www.heathrowairport.com/stat...ual_PDF/VAT_Refunds/vat-refund-leaflet_EN.pdf
Hi guys,
I am from Europe and lost my Smartphone on a holiday in the US. So I went to bestbuy and bought a Moto G 2nd unlocked. I told the lady I am from Europe and need it to work in Europe. Nevertheless now back at home i found out she sold me the US version instead of the Global one and i get no 3g connection here in Austria. (yeah they had both versions at stock for the same price, but now its to late)
So is there any possibility i can get my XT1064 (US version) to XT1063 (Global) by flashing ROMs or anything else? Or are the phones different in terms of hardware and I have now a nearly useless phone here in Austria while being without wifi coverage?
Thanks for any information
Daniel
I'm curious about this also as I'm planning on traveling in EU. From what I've gathered it would be a no on 3G.I would guess it is going to be a hardware problem since the US version does not feature 2100 MHz data.

Yeah thats the exact problem. I do not get a 3G signal cause the US version misses the 2100 MHz band, so in Europe you just are able to use EDGE as a maximum with the US version
I'm guessing that it's only returnable in store if returnable at all. If it's that new you could go the Ebay route and offer a good discount. It may sell fairly quickly, especially with the prices some of those sellers ask.

Sending stuff from Europe to the US is a pain *****, since US authorities check everything. So yeah, i just have to stick with i wasted 190 bucks on a wifi internet only phone
That's probably why it took a month to get a pineapple corer I ordered. It sat in NY for 3 weeks. You can never be too careful with those pineapple corers.
