Unlocked Mobile Phones M8/S5

Kevin!

Recently went on the hunt for a HTC M8 and stumbled across this website: GSMNation.co.uk

Got a red M8 (which is only available in the US and Asia) for £425 unlocked

They have S5's for £425 unlocked also

Granted these phones are imports, the vast majority of phone manufacturers provide a global warranty on their products - which is also backed by GSMNation (A reputable company http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_Nation with mentions in Entrepreneur and Forbes magazine).

The HTC I purchased functions on Irish networks bar 4G on Vodafone - works with 4G on Three although I currently use 48

UK VAT is also paid on these products, so you are not liable for any import duties.

A good saving over bricks and mortar in Ireland unlocked

still, why do they hide postal address though being non compliant with the legislation? it's always a big indication of scammy operation for me

These guys are legit. The founder was on the pocketnow.com podcast a few weeks ago. Their rep is growing and have only recently opened the UK storefront so that may explain why some info is missing from the website.

Mine is identical same specs etc, theyre produced in the same factory. The only difference was mine defaulted to Chinese but was easily changed.

Only difference is not being able to get 4G on Vodafone
