I was the second person at the Dowtown Crossing store in Boston yesterday and they had only received black. The rep checked stores in something like a 50 mile radius and he said no one had them. I didn't check with authorized retailers, however.

They sold out in the online pre-order.

I pre-ordered the white on 9/21, they cancelled my order "due to stock shortage" and didn't feel the need to tell me. I had to call and find this out for myself after I didn't get a shipping notification by end of day yesterday... Now I am in the 'by the 31st' group. I did get overnight shipping and 2gb data for year for my troubles....oh well, back to waiting

I ordered it yesterday with Saturday shipping, supposedly ships on the 31st.

I received my white preorder (best buy); but as someone else said not enough of them to fulfill preorders; maybe next week. I think the white one is a lot nicer than the black one but I prefer the icons on the note 2 to the icons on note 4 (well dialer anyways)

Yes they are. I assume they sold out all white phones with pre orders. I grabbed the black one for now. I have 14 days to switch it to the white one hopefully they'll have them by then otherwise I'm stuck with the black one.

Carphonewarehouse first again.

Bought my Sony play, last year, and Carphonewarehouse had it 5 days before anyone else, today picked up the one x, for my wife again from Carphonewarehouse, hate them or love them they certainly do deliver. I picked the 36£, vodafone tariff, which I think will definitely be the cheapest, compared to anyone else, good job carphone.
fair play to CPW!
beats headphones or no?

I went into my local CPW (in Canterbury, Kent) and they didn't have it in stock. I was told they were getting their demo/dummy model tomorrow and actual stock on Thursday.

Lol, they probably kept for themselves, apparently most stores recieved about 3 units per store, in my harlow branch, they have 2 stores, both had about 6 between them.
I popped into central branch today in hull, they told me they already have their demo unit but not received any stock as of yet, to be fair i dont think the rep really new what he was on about as he didnt even know the release date
Hey Marvi0, which firmware did the UK version ship with?

white or black?
I've pre-ordered from CPW with delivery to store and not heard anything yet... will call them tomorrow.
I don't see the point in paying £36 for 600 mins, 3000 texts and 1GB Data.
Three do their one plan
All-you-can-eat data + Tethering
2,000 minutes
5,000 Three-to-Three minutes
5,000 texts
for £38pm with a free phone.
Better value for money if you ask me.
Last time I used Three was just after they launched, I lived in North London and I couldn't get reception anywhere....after a long battle we went out seperate ways...I now live in the sticks and ain't willing to risk it!!!

No stock at any of the stores near me yet. Hope they have a grey one I can reserve on Thursday and pay for on Friday, seems easier than ordering for delivery to store. If not, I'll bite the bullet and pay online.

You can get the same deal from affordablemobile for £31 p/m, that is a saving of £168.
I got the same deal yesterday, but changed to £23 p/m with £112 upfront for 500 mins, 500 txt and unlimited internet without tethering today, as it is much cheaper and I don't really need the tetherting that much.
Link to 3 One Plan for £31 p/m free phone
Link to 3 One Plan for £25 p/m with £118 upfront.
P.S. according this email affordablemobile sent me today, I could get the phone on Thursday if everything goes to plan.
"The HTC ONE X is released 05/04/12, credit checks will be taken out 04/04/12 for these handsets to be despatched that night for delivery on release date. Providing you pass all checks you could receive your handset as soon as 05/04/12. I can confirm the one plan on 3 does come with tethering."

You were lucky, there was a memo sent out later today to say that the release date is 5th and not to sell them, looks like some ppl didn't get that memo! :screwy: some heads will roll!
I've been off today and heard that the black One X have come in, no one had white One X in, think there is a delay on white one.

I will be seriously pissed if they don't dispatch my white version tomorrow for Thursday delivery - the website still states 'pre-order for Thursday 5th April delivery'
If it's not dispatched, they can give me my money back so I can go & pick it up in a shop - as the next earliest date would be 11th April, which is unacceptable.
11th would be terrible for a pre-order, (a pre-order they took money for over a, week ago) - especially when other suppliers have been shipping & delivering them already.
I feel I will be phoning them a few times in the morning.
... Hopefully with good news.

Funny you should say that buddy, cause when I went to the main branch, and asked if they had it, they said they had, no problem. I left my debit card at home, so went back to pick it, and then decided to go to the branch that was out of town, and when I asked if they had it, they hesitated before saying they had, but it wasn't on system, and had no price, which kinda confirms what you saying, it's only after I suggested, all be going to pick it up then at the other branch, as I had already spoken to them, that all the customer service chaps, went to the back of the shop, and miraculously it was now priced. But the first chap, I had spoken to wasn't the one who completed the deal, instead, it was the doggy looking chap, who done it for me. Let's just hop, the units are retail Units, not test versions, in light of what you said. And now my wife, read about the HTC that toasted in someone's pocket she's now a bit worried, the phone, got a bit warm at times when I was introducing it to the world, imagine it blowing up in the pocket, "I hate the sore idea of loosing one of my b***s.
Just phoned carphone warehouse, & I'm FURIOUS!
its 12:17pm - they still don't have stock for the white HTC ONE X.
They don't know when they are coming in, & its has to be dispatched today for the launch day delivery!
I've had my pre-order for weeks, they even took the money over a week ago (which they shouldn't be allowed to do until it enters dispatch process)
I asked about possible refund in which I was told it would take 4 days for them to refund me - which is absolutely pointless as i might aswell wait for white stock by that time.
The only thing they can do is offer to send me the black one instead.
Their website 'still' states pre-order today for Thursday 5th April delivery.
I'm soooo angry, if it's not dispatched today - it will be another week at the earliest til I recieve it!
Biggest phone supplier in the UK & they have no stock still, when O2, 3, Phones4u, dialaphone etc all have stock!

Note 2 at Best Buy

Just wanted to let you guys know most of the BB stores in my area had the phone in stock as of yesterday while none of the AT&T stores had any inventory.
They price matched Amazon wireless' price of $249 which is always nice. Also another advantage to some is that you can purchase a protection plan for $10 month, which is a lot easier to deal with than the carriers' 3rd party insurance providers.
YMMV on the price match but there's no real reason they wouldn't. Good luck guys!

Nice find as I did the same myself. They only had it in white where I went. They will price match it. There website says so. For new customers who want a white one, amazon is selling it for $174.99. Bb will honor that as well.

Nice! Which reminds me, unlike the AT&T store if the price drops even more within the 30 day return window (probably will with Christmas around the corner) I can take my receipt back to BB for another price match and get real money back, instead of credit towards a future bill (how AT&T handles price adjustments).

If I'm not sure AT&T changed the return policy to 15 days not 30. Just about amonth or so ago..But if BB is honoring that great deal there.

I just got the Note 2 today as an upgrade for $174.99 with Amazon Wireless price match. The White one goes for $174.99 while the Titanium Grey goes for $249.00 for a new line only.
Shocked that I got the adding a new line discount price instead of the higher upgrading a line price.
I went to the store when it was very busy and the employees were somewhat overwhelmed.
I will use the savings to buy the smart dock or the Otterbox.

I went to Best Buy when Amazon had it on for $174.99 and they wouldn't price match it for me, they said because it was on backorder through Amazon. So I went to AT&T and they had no problems price matching it even though it was on BO. I gave them my IPhone 4S got $207 for trade in and got the Note 2 for $174.99 and $21.00 credit with AT&T lol.

Did you do an upgrade at AT&T? or new line?
I got an early upgrade from AT&T so I never really thought of trying to price match as they shipped me the phone. I sold my Iphone 4 for $200 on craigslist . So, I ended up only paying $100. I really wish I Got the white one though, my GF has a white GS3 and didn't want to seem....feminine. But, after having my grey one, I wouldn't mind it.

I ordered mine from Clove on Sunday, February 16. I then got the email about the document they needed for security. I replied immediately. When I woke up on Monday, I had two emails from them saying that the order was completed and another one with the shipping information. I chose the more expensive shipping option from DHL and am able to track every single step of the transit.

I preordered two from Clove back in Jan. My items shipped on Feb 4th and received both device in one package on Feb 7th. Clove and Handtec are very high reputable companies. Ive been using Clove for over 10 years and Hantec for about 5. No issues whatsoever.
Do handtec need the same verification as clove?
Im on the ping pong game with the authorization code with citi bank and clove.
the thing is, handtec says they will not charge me until it ships, while clove already charged my account and did not shop it yet .. they still require the check.
Clove is running a special that includes the DK32 dock free with purchase of the Z1 Compact. Got me to bite.

Anyone receive their device on 7/12?

Trying to see why I'm out of luck with this, tmo offered me Saturday express which I went for since I ordered it on Friday 7/11. Some people saying back ordered while others getting theirs, I've only got the EIP email and didn't get the confirmation or shipping yet.

So, question. I asked this at Best Buy and both the cell representative and manager told me I can just go online and find it, which it's not listed and they were of little help.
I want the International model as it doesn't come with carrier bloat. Does anybody familiar with Best Buys workings know if they can order it for me? Or are they limited to carrier versions?
Yeah,a bit out of place and random. Thanks for any help.
