Bought it from Thailand. It is officially available in many countries in South East Asia. Here it is sold together with MPen.
The only model available here is 128/6 GB. Google assistant works well.
I still havent play much with it so I could not really tell all pros and cons. One thing I notice right away was that the display is grainy, though higher ppi than iPhone Xr but its noticeably grainy I would say. Coming from LG G7, I do hate Huawei Emui launcher.

Is it still grainy if you disable "Smart Resolution"?

Yes it is. Earlier I talked to many people about this and many say its ok. I just tried to say that it looks worse in comparison to iPhone Xr but its your eyes to decide if its ok or not. People coming from WQHD might notice this more I guess.

Do u have a link from where u bought it?

I have to agree with this comment. The grainy description had me rolling eyes too. Grainy? you must have the eyes of a hawk

Price paid? Did you get silver or blue? Is silver as purplish as it looks?

My screen is awesome! Not grainy at all... Maybe change your theme... My son has the iPhone XS Max 6.5 inch and is sick and wished he had waited for the Mate 20 X

Does the 20 X have a notification led or a always on display? Thank you!

It is a more feminine lilac in my opinion. Even the fingerprint reader is a very light purple. I sold my Chinese silver and bought the international model which only comes in midnight blue from Splendor for $868 USD.

How is reading small texts on this phone

Hi everyone, im going to be coming from an iphone 4, while i know this screen is no retina display, does the larger size of the screen negate this, or would the small text appear fuzzy and would need to be zoomed in.
Text looks fine with no zoom

We don't get them down here until Friday. Fingers crossed we don't have any issues and that date holds up. I'm super excited and can't wait to make the switch from iOS to Android.

OP5T Starwars Edition

Hi guys, I'm about to receive my starwars edition tomorrow.
I'm surprised to see no threads related to it.
I'm just wondering if the development of StarWars edition and 64gb version is going to be same.
Can I just start meddling with it straight away, with the roms available for 64gb version?
Or do I've to wait.
I personally don't like the design of OP5T but still bought it because of development love it gets.
(I'm more of a Xperia guy)
I'm gonna return the mobile without even opening unboxing and will get the regular op5t, if the development is poor for this model
Thanks in advance for the response.
I don't think that change anything. If I'm correct, that's the exact same phone and same rom.
You can even unlock the StarWars "bonuses" on the normal 5T.
It's the exact same phone in a different case.
But the Ram is 8 GB.
Will that make any difference?

It will be treated just the same as all the others. The only thing special about it is the col,or option which was done just to make a little more money from countries where they know it would be bought.

Lol
Bought this color just bcoz it is masking those hideous iphonish antenna bands.
Apart from that all i know about starwars is that its a movie. xD
The best thing about this variant is that it has the sandstone finish instead of smooth back. I with the black model had this.

OnePlus 5t Red Lava Edition

Does anyone have this edition on their hands?
I'm actually thining on getting it from an online store but i don't find even one unboxing video or anything.
Maybe i should wait a few days more but if any of you have it or could actually take pictures to see it (instead of just renders that i find online) or even video i would greatly appreciate it

i have bought 4 phones already from ali and i didn't have to pay customs at all.
But also they wasn't that expensive as the OP5T so it makes me get a bit worry :silly:

It's here, all good . The phone is gorgeous.

The S10+ has arrived

The S10+ was just delivered to me. I got the 128GB S10+ in Prism Green - the G975F/DS (dual-sim) version from eBay(never-msrp). it seems to be a Latin American version (as the initial startup screen was in Spanish).
Unfortunately, I have to run for an extended meeting so will not get a chance to play with it till the evening. Let me know if you have any questions that I can answer.
I want that green! Looks good! Wish the US would have had it
huh? that quick?
It looks kinda blue (not green) to me. Congrats on your new toy
Notification light?

Congrats! Can you check Ram? Is it 8GB? - hope it is but 'FX' is a demo unit, here is a link to check all references.

This times a million. Notification LED ring around camera. If you can - try and install lightflow, see if it picks it up.
I just want to know if you can get google camera installed on it and if night sight works.
If this is the exynos version need your opinion about speed and lag and stutters etc.. specially compared to something like iphones and one plus devices

there were early reports of this phone only having 6GB since a bunch of "demo" devices were showing that. Samsung confirmed they do in fact have 8GB.

Demo units are stripped down to bare minimum to save money. Since they are just for a 'tease' they don't have to be fully functional to every detail.

According to pre-release sheets they made some other builds. I got confused too, I wanted 8GB/128 S10 at first, but it looked like only the 512 S10 has it and I even preordered that. Then they corrected that, saying all S10/10+ have 8gb so I cancelled S10 and reordered S10+. That change cost me 2 weeks delay,my orig spot in waiting line was 3/8 now it's 3/22.
That's where the demo units must have been projected:
CONGRATS!! i been so anxious to get mines samsung say delivery date 3/8 can you please post pictures of the edge LED light notifications? i wan to see how visible it is thanks

FX is not a demo unit. It’s just ‘X’. The demo unit is SM-G975X. At least it is here in Europe anyway as the single sim version.
