The Amazon.de blurb said 6,000 headphones for P20 and 4,000 for the Pro. Wonder if those are the Huawei numbers for the proof of purchase claim system? If so the claim site will get hammered on the 20th. They stuck in the usual "while stocks last" get out of jail free card to cover themselves.

The headphones for P20 on amazon.de are not the QC 35s btw

Anybody see demo models in bricks and mortar stores yet?

Foreign Sports · 03-04-2018 2:35pm

Anyone pre-order with Eir?

There seems to be no restrictions on the headphone availability as long as you pre-order online.

Eir will apparently ship the headphones with the phone which may suit some people better.

Sadly they are not selling them Pre-pay.

And Vodafone are also shipping with phone , its just Three that say within 30 days.

I would argue that you 14 days don't start until you receive your full order of phone and headphones? (Or confirmation that you have received full order of phone only if that is the case)

But you still could not open the phone until you get confirmation either way, as you cannot return once opened?

the must know when shipping the phone if you are in the first 120 or not. and should let you know at this stage at the very least?

You would think that they would know when they are shipping but Three are the worst company you can deal with, none of their reps ever have a clue whenever theres a pre-order offer. I have had issue past few years as well.

I have one ordered with Vodafone and one with Three. So if I get the headset with one from Vodafone I will cancel the Three order.

iHungry · 03-04-2018 7:03pm

Heafs up I just rang Harvey Norman but they don't know until they come in if the headphones are included.

I think they are the only shop selling it sim free

RTT · 03-04-2018 9:05pm

Just preordered with Three. Was told delivery will commence on the 12th April.

Gatling · 03-04-2018 9:24pm

You would think people actually wanted the phone Vs the headphones

I wonder where is the catch with three.ie ? Prepy price is 749.99 instead of 899.99 everywhere else, and Bose qc35 is included. Too good to be true

sentient_6 · 03-04-2018 9:56pm

Well I've been curious about that across the Irish networks, Vodafone aren't a million miles away at what 780? Yet the sterling price is way more, usually the euro and sterling prices are proportional.

Where does it say on the 3 website that the Bose headphones are included?

If I buy on three prepay how long do I need to wait to unlock it.. Is there a minimum prepay spend?

You usually have to see out in full or pay out the contract term to get unlocked. If you pay out the contract it means you dont have to pay monthly, as you’ve paid up contract in full obviously.

Hmm_Messiah · 04-04-2018 1:02am

You have to spend Eur 130 on top ups before you can get the unlock code.

Regarding Three will it be locked to 3 sims only or unlocked to all network?

EDIT: Looks like the answer is there u need to spend a minimum amount to have it unlocked

The tax man · 05-04-2018 4:36pm

I see Vodafone have increased the offer to the first 100 customers now.

TrustedApple · 05-04-2018 6:03pm

So is it 100% that the three ready to go price of 750 include the headphones ?.

As it's the girlfirends birthday is soon and this l9oks like the perfect phone for her

Gatling · 05-04-2018 6:12pm

Got my hands on one earlier for half and hour ,it's a lovely device ,love the screen and the images are class without having to change any settings ,

Looking forward to the pre-order arriving

Most UK retailers shipping today for delivery tomorrow. Dont know why Irish retailers are a week behind.

I had this confusion also but I think that...

The P20 is released tomorrow
The P20 Pro is the 13th

So is it only the p20 shipping tomorrow in uk?

Nope, P20 Pro also being shipped tomorrow in UK (seen few guys got dispatch email on HUKD). My order status with Vodafone says due for dispatch.

But some also saying they got emails saying theirs is delayed till 20th.

Interesting, maybe they are jumping the gun with the pro.

My order is also due for dispatch, but I have a funny feeling it was like this since order, do you remember if yours has changed since order date?

Nope, they are definitely doing 100£ for Amazon UK as posted on HUKD earlier. I think using an Irish IP it doesnt show same offer.

My P20 Pro arrived this morning from Vodafone UK. I wont be able to have a look until later. The wife said no headphones came with the phone depsite them assuring me it would

Looks like I'll have to wait until the 20th now to make the claim.

iHungry · 06-04-2018 11:36am

Anybody bought a case for it yet? I'm trying to get one in advance. Can find the official flip case in stock anywhere.

What about other brands of case. Anybody recommend a manufacturer?

Dont think any UK retailer was sending them with phones, they have to be claimed via Huawei site.

P20 and P20 Lite now available from today (on Vodafone site anyway)

rednoggin · 06-04-2018 2:43pm

Got a chance to play around with the phone during lunch. Initial thoughts are good. The low light shots are impressive, and the Bokeh seems to work really well.

The fingerprint scanner is very fast, as is the face unlock. I didn't expect it to be as good. I was surprised to find the fingerprint scanner isn't an physical button, it doesn't move but it does still act as the home button.

I'm not really impressed by the screen, the S8 looks much better. Its not a bad screen, it just doesn't stand out imo.

Personally the first negative thing I found is the notch. It's so distracting, I switched if off almost immediately. If it didn't have this feature I probably wouldn't have bought the phone.

FYI there is a clear phone case protector that came in the bock for those worried if they get the phone and haven't sorted a case out.

brevity · 06-04-2018 5:09pm

The Verge have given it an excellent review. Wasn't expecting that.
