How Soon Is Now · 01-05-2016 09:32PM

Has it actually been confirmed that this will be out in shops come Thursday at 699 ?

Three seem to refuse to say they know for sure when there asked.

I wouldn't mind being able to pop into a three shop on Thursday and have a look. Also say i did decide to buy there's no need for a pre order right?

I asked on their forums and they don't have a clue. When they first had their coming soon page, it said May 5th, but that's been removed.

Thats why i asked cause ive seen the very same thing and wondered. Yet it was mentioned elsewhere that its out early May and some mentioned the 5th.

Amazon UK says delivery for May 6th.

I have friends in Germany who picked up their 10's today, just from a normal store. Meanwhile, HTC UK still tweeting today that they can't say anything more than 'early May'.

What's their initial impression?

Haven't talked a lot.

Awesome build quality, nice sound through headphones, nice screen when brightness is up, but has a red tint to it.

Have read that the tint on the screen is from the glue, and it goes after a while.

So seeing a couple of places online say its going on sale this Friday the 6th of May in the UK. Hopefully it will be the same date here!.

Tried registering with very.co.uk for the 20% off job. No joy, credit application rejected.

Edit

If you have a VAT number, the phone can be purchased sim-free from clove.co.uk for €575 inc. DHL delivery

The_B_Man · 04-05-2016 10:53AM

^That "Clove" site says its due the week commencing 9th of May!

OK, so 3 have pushed release date out until next Wednesday

Bastards...

I'm trying to figure out what's the cheapest most straight forward way of getting one.

sentient_6 · 04-05-2016 12:02PM

Any idea how long Three will exclusively have it? Id be considering getting it with Vodafone if I could.

Mr E · 04-05-2016 12:06PM

6 weeks, apparently. That puts it at June 22nd at the earliest, by my calculations.

I don't know if Vodafone will even get it. Pretty sure Vodafone UK aren't going to, and have heard a few different theories why they won't be.

sentient_6 · 04-05-2016 02:32PM

They got back to me on twitter to say they've no plans to carry the phone, that's disappointing.

Anything interesting apart from the failure of the M9 sales wise ?

Bradz213 · 04-05-2016 03:42PM

They fill phones full of bloatware and HTC asked to keep them clean

Yeah, had heard the same as Bradz. HTC have really slimmed down their software, and wanted carriers to do the same. Vodafone like to load their phones with junk, though.

Friends of mine had also heard that Vodafone were concerned about HTC going bankrupt. Strange one.

I left Vodafone late last year because I was due an upgrade and they didn't carry anything I was interested in. They didn't bother with the S6 edge+, so I switched to 3 and got it with them. Network not as good, but I'm saving €20/month.

The HTC 10 has just got a camera software update that improves things all round.

Testament1 · 04-05-2016 06:36PM

Camera looks to be great on this! Really think I'll take the plunge when it's released.

Captain Chaos · 04-05-2016 06:46PM

Got an update from Amazon saying delivery date put back to the 18th, was looking forward to having this for the weekend.

Tried contacting HTC a couple of different ways today about changing the billing address on my order. No reply from anyone. The reply to the email just had "Dear Customer" and then a blank email

Decided to just reorder and cancel the other one but the 10% from HTC UK seems to be gone.

I've only used Parcel motel address for billing, so wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't go through.

The discount code was removed for a while, but was working again today...

@HTC_UK: @adamtate4 The promo code should be working again today. ^FJ

So tempted to buy one but my Vodafone su6 is running so well I can't really justify it. I know they're I'm two different leagues but I may wait another 6 months and get the next Nexus.

I've done the same, thats why I was trying to change it.

I dunno, was definitely gone last night when I tried to put another order through. Got as as far as clicking buy now and it redirected me back to my basket with a red bar that said something along the lines of the promotion was over.

Might try and make time to call them this evening.

HTC started shipping in the US last night, hopefully the UK soon.

I know a few retailers have done that, but they were also saying that early orders will be shipped before then. Just new orders won't be shipping until May 18th.

DGRulz · 05-05-2016 11:43AM

Not sure how reliable the source is but this article is saying May 6th for Amazon and Three UK .
