LG G3 Availability in Ireland.

I finally decide to go for "OnePlus One". Already order it.
Everything together it cost me ~400€ for Black 64GB version. it is for 200€ cheaper to LG G3 for the same specs.
You can potentially got it even cheaper if:
1) not gonna buy invite, but get it from OnePlus for free (I got it for 50€ on ebay from Irish guy)
2) not order from UK, but from another EU country (keep in mind they don't do shipping to Ireland by some reason, so i had to use 3d party service to re-ship it from UK (actually from Northern Ireland, they do delivery there as it is UK part - service is: parcelmotel.com)

here is very good review with unboxing youtube.com/watch?v=xGUtBv2kbKE

P.S. What should i do to get permission to post links? this unreasonable block is kind of annoying, im not bot and not posting any ads

haahhah "fish n chips" phone.... c'mon don't be like that! brand sign is not always mean good device. Most of the time it is still the same thing, but with logo and cost more. Especially in hardware and electronics.
Nor LG, nor HTC nor OnePlus develop hardware, they buy parts from others, CPU is everywhere the same SnapDragon 801, RAM from some Taiwan company and so on... all they do is just combine all those parts together and stamp it with their brand. for this stamp pay extra 200€ is unreasonable i think. especially when the price will drop on 50% in next 6 month, and after anotehr 6 month there will be new G4 and Samsung Galaxy XXXX....
Regarding Eglobal - i think they have not true version of oneplus. There was official thread on OnePlus forum, where admins were explaining the difference, it is the same HW, but not the same OS and doesn't have OnePlus warranty.

Looks a good phone on paper, but you could be waiting a while and they're a new company, so I'm not willing to take a chance with a new Chinese company with phone support and returns etc.
Much rather save myself €100 and get the G2

It is not a joke what to sell product, think yourself how would you coop with such high demand if you would be an business owner? They are just kind of "kick starter" startup and not comparable to Samsung manufacturing power. They simply can't supply millions phone in one click like Samsung does. So invites system was the way how to limit amount of orders! and fair plate to them that they didn't start accepting orders and money just for a sake of getting rich! they did honest trade and take money only when they can provide gods in return.

What is more, internet already full of invites. I bought invite for 50€ in 1 minute time once I made my final decision that im going for OnePlus and not G3. Invite is not a problem for those who really want to buy. even with extra 50€ for an invite, this phone is still cheaper than any other phone with similar HW.

To moggser:
Yes sure, ill update you once i get my "Fish & Chips" phone hahhaha
love your sarcasm

heh I dont think that my granny would know as im not Irish nor she is so u better explain here what is "one +one"

I asked few Irish guys at work, they never heard of it but they are not granny's tho hahah
anyway thnx for clarification.

P.S. now my wife start looking at LG G3, it looks like i will still not avoid that purchase for 600 damn LG
how could they be Samsung killer with such price?

but it is not only 500, also import tax
so the final amount still will be around ~600
however there is a good chance to be lucky and not be spotted at Irish customs

did u order you G3 from them? how long was delivery overall? 2 weeks? more? and was u billed for import?

sounds like a good review of that eglobe

regarding refund, sorry im not sure I fully got what u mean - did u mean that "they promise to give you refund if you will be taxed"? so even if you will be taxed for import they will return it?

That's brilliant! Its like being insured against being caught for tax avasion

im sitting on the fence about getting a g3, really like the look of it but how does it perform in comparison to say an s5?

everything ive read tells me that performance wise the s5 is quicker, even against the 3gb g3, do you have some benchmarks? i really like the g3 and its amazing screen but i love silky smooth performance, arggggg decisions!!!!

would there be any trouble using say a german 32gb g3 here in ireland? really think im just going to get a g3, had an s3 before so id like something different, would getting it insured be easy enough?

hahah man those benchmark number are for the gigs, plus / minus thousand here and there doesn't make any noticeable change for the user. It is anyway works smoothly in any case

Tho im fan of Samsung and with them since first Galaxy until 4 and I should say their software is not the best and has enough glitches.... dont know how is the situation with LG soft

in any case whether u decide to go for G3 lower or higher model or for samsung you will get smooth experience and those benchmark numbers just to measure how long is your d**k

Also dont forger that LG has QHD display and Samsung does not, it is mean LG have to process x2 more data to output it on the screen, however it score is not half of SGS5, it delay just a bit. and 3GB version is ahead of SGS5
go for 3GB ram model and you will be at the TOP

obviously after mine OnePlus One is biting G3 with 3GB hahah

you have a g3 yeah? if you dont mind me asking, where did you get it from? i know mobicity.co.uk sell them but i dont know much about the site, is there a more reputable site?

I got super excited about the OnePlus One when I heard about it. Love the idea of the CyanogenMod OS being so customisable. The reviews of it being a bit glitchy turned me off though. The issues with it seem minor but I tend to overreact to those small things!
