    Factory reset, then pop your SIM in?

    If you need cables or docks get them on Google store, loads of offers on there at the moment...

    I missed the Pixel. P30 looks a good alternative, but I'm guessing they're locked to VF?

    I picked P30 from store. Store said they have loads. That was last week. @Dundrum

    What's actually in the box besides the phone, would presume a charger plug and usb cable at the very least? Is there any screen protector or even case included?

    Charger, Earplugs, USB cable. SP is already on screen. No case

    Are you talking about the Pixel 3A or the Huawei? The Huawei stuff should really go into another thread, getting confusing as **** at this stage.

    You're talking about the 3A? It has a USB charge cable, but it is USB-C to USB-C.
    I think there's also a female USB-A to USB-C adaptor, so you can use a normal USB-A Cable to connect to the plug.

    This.

    Also, the USB-A connector is deprecated as of USB 3.2, so you'll be seeing less and less of them going forward.

    Would anyone have any idea of the odds they will get them back in online? They are an extra €50 in store (€229 instead of the €179 if you switch) and the staff said they had lots in store.

    Offer ends Monday so doubt they will come back in stock online before that.

    Hmm, 229 is still a decent price.

    At €229, still great value. I'd have jumped at it at that price if didn't get one for €179+€15 (SIM).

    If you want to plug it into a laptop or another charger that you have, then yeah. Otherwise, just use the charger provided.
