Not sure if you know or not, but the black 128gb/6gb version is already up for Pre-order on Asus' UK store for £499. If you try to order though the shipping date says '9th July 2018' which is obviously wrong since it's impossible. Support said it'd be updated Friday but it wasn't, so probably be updated Tuesday at the earliest because of bank holiday, they are apparently waiting on stock confirmation from Asus.

The Tech press thought Amazon UK would be the first to offer the smartphone but nothing and not even accessories.

Can it be bought from abroad

Have you got the link for the 8gb model?

Asus just announced the anniversary version, 12gb ram 512gb storage and only 3,000 units to be made.

The german store says 11.06.2019 or earlier when you preorder it for the 6/64GB black. The 6/128GB black is available for preorder but without a date.

I ordered one from the French ASUS shop this morning. It was shipped out early afternoon with UPS. ASUS uses a German distributor (Arvato) and my unit was shipped from the Netherlands.

With the exception of UK I'm pretty sure all the EU ASUS e-stores are fulfilled by athe same distributor based in Germany which explain why all EU ASUS stores are now beginning to ship.
As usual, just the UK in the sh*t.

I don't know if they ship to the UK but Amazon Germany has the 6GB RAM 128GB ROM black version for pre-order with release date 10th of June
https://www.amazon.de/Dual-SIM-Smar...sus+zenfone+6&qid=1559730702&s=gateway&sr=8-6

Zenfone 6 back in stock in UK store.
Available now to order from UK store!!!!!! Limited stock was available for the 8GB. I think I was able to get one. But 128 GB, 6GB models are still available.

As far as I know, the device is not released in Hong Kong yet. It's not even on HTC's HK website. And it's not in any of the major electronics retailers. Where have you found it in HK? I will go there at once to get one!

This is not officially a Hong Kong release. It is actually a UK version and will not be warranted by HK HTC.
That is why I have held back and wait for a bit. It should launch with in the next 2 weeks.

I agree. Still waiting for official release in HK. Besides, Expansys overcharges way too much. Eg. they charge 5425 HKD for Diamond2 while it's widely available in retail stores for 4880 HKD.

Yes, they do over charge now but at the time when it was launched they were only selling it at $4xxx.xx. The only reason I think the price has gone up is because of the exchange rate for GBP to HKD. I remember it because I was going to order it until I found that it was a UK version and not warranted by HK HTC.
BTW, CSL 1010 should have a better offer for the TP2 anyway. I will order it from them as soon as HTC announces a launch date in HK. They usually have a press conference with hot models (girls) showing off the phones.
I saw on ePrice.com.tw in Taiwan (sorry guys, the website is in Chinese), they have launched it over there, the first in Asia.
So HK will usually follow suit within a couple of weeks, just like the HTC Magic.
Just found out it launches in Hong Kong on Tuesday 9 June. Look here! I will call CSL to see if I can pre order it tomorrow.
Can't wait!
For those of you who are looking for this device in Hong Kong, it's officially released!
http://www.htc.com/hk-en/press.aspx?id=102024&lang=1033
(Seems HTC is not partnering up with CSL for this one...)
It mentions the suggested retail price of 5680 HKD.
I actually just ordered the device from Clove (http://www.clove.co.uk/viewProduct.aspx?product=C64E151D-03FE-49D1-8412-C266A9D3D48B). With DHL shipping, it came to 464 Euro which is about 5000 HKD. (Expecting it in a week!)

Yes, I found out today. Shame, I was expecting to go with CSL, it is only with Smartone Voda Phone and PCCW.
I will give Smartone a visit tomorrow to see when they are getting it in stock.
Wow, that is really cheap! Thing is, it won't be warranted by HTC HK. Which I think is more important than $700 HKD.

Has Anyone Had a 6GB/128GB model ship from China yet?

Nothing yet on the blue one I ordered
I just bought it today in China (Beijing) at a Xiaomi store. It's fantastic.
Nobody has had a 6GB/128GB model ship yet then? Some people recieved notes on their orders saying it would ship on Friday. I recieved one 10 days ago saying it would ship next Wednesday.
I've given up on Aliexpress. I had 3 separate orders with Mi Global, HKG and Mi Store and they're useless at replying to messages and they won't give me a solid date for dispatch.
I've followed TechTablets' (YouTuber) advise and gone with Trading Shenhzen as they have stock of the 128GB gold/white model. The price + postage worked out a smidge higher but they actually respond to messages and they give you the option of the Chinese ROM or that bootleg "global" ROM. They're already processing my order which is fantastic considering I only ordered a few hours ago.
Black and Blue models out of stock there aswell though, cant stand gold phones.
I'm still waiting on my black 6gb/128gb from Mi Global Store on AliExpress. Ordered July 30. Haven't had any replies after they offered to compensate the delay with a free mi band 3. Basically, they, like the rest, did a pre-sale since this version only went live officially on August 10th on Xiaomi's website. I waited this long, so I'll keep waiting for a few more days. No other place has black or blue. I'm not a fan of white/gold either.

Yep, I spoke to geekbuying. They don't get their pre-order stock until August 15th, so I think that's when online 6gb/128GB start shipping.

Yes, Trading Shenhzen is the best shop IMO. Hong Kong Goldway at Aliexpress use to be great but not anymore.
I have mine being shipped to me now. I was able to buy it off China's biggest e-commerce website taobao, and have it shipped to me in Malaysia. Logistics is going to take some time, and I hope I can get it within a week or two.

All Mi Max 3 will have those bands. You can buy / preorder from AliExpress, Gearbest, Geekbuying, Honorbuy, etc., etc.
BUT currently only the Chinese ROM is available, global ROM is rumoured to be released soon.

Huawei Mate 20X EVR-L29

For the modeL number EVR-L29, does it come in the 8GB/256gb version or only 6GB/128gb?
Can anyone clarify please.
Thank you
So far, most sources are pointing to 6/128GB only, no 8/256GB announced yet for L29 global version.

This is the only place making the 256GB L29 claim, but yet there is no confirmation, ALSO if this is true, then there is a 3rd version, as this company claims L29 is only going to have 6GB of ram with either 128GB or 256GB internal memory, which I cant believe.
Here is the link: https://www.expansys.com.hk/huawei-mate-20-x-dual-sim-evr-l29-256gb-phantom-silver-313707/

Hi,
Thank you for your interest. We will know about this model in the end of the month. This is a preorder if it does come out.
Cheers,
Alex
Although a 8GB model is unlikely....both the blue and silver may be available in the international model soon. Keep your eye on Singapore.
Singapore "normally" stocks international models (vice mainland Chinese models). Taken from the news article below:
Color options available are Midnight Blue and Phantom Silver.

And after 24 hours, here's the rub from Giztop:
dear customer,
thanks for your order, we are ready to process it today.
but just get news that the global version only available with 128Gb midnight blue version, how about changing the phone as 128Gb version with 150$ difference refund?
thanks and waiting for your reply.
Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any question.
Thank you and regards.

My Response:
That’s why I discussed with you exactly this, I do not want the 128GB version, I clearly asked this yesterday, and you confirmed 256GB, I do not want 6/128GB. Please return my payment.
Thats the trick, play on people with fake advertisement and then do the switch and hope the customer still wants it, F! AHoles. That pisses me off, I didnt need to waste half the night back and forth to be BS-ed.

Question Question: Where it ships from

Hi fine people!
After ordering my 8 Pro an hour after launch, I finally got a shipment notification and tracking number this evening (yay). However, I noticed it is shipping from Hong Kong to me in New Jersey, U.S. My question is, will it still be the global version? I don't want the China version. I thought that U.S. shipments were shipping from the west coast, somewhere from California. Do I need to be concerned?
Thanks for any feedback.
if you ordered from the website (. Com) then it won't be the China variant.
Mine was also shipped from HK, EU version.
But anyway, you can flash any version you like by using local update
