These exclusivity deals are great aren't they? I'm sure it's more about giving incompetent companies an edge over the competition rather than a company doing Nokia a favour.

Well that was your last chance Nokia and you blew it. S3 ordered.

Just phoned P4U on Oxford Street and they will be selling them sim free for £469.00 and they should be expecting instock from tomorrow, so I need to phone back tomorrow.

I hope that's true, can I order one online?

No. They only sell contracts online, when I spoke to them last night.

tbh the 920 has become a right mess up, can only be brought on ee on a ridiculous contract :/ you would think with nokia's financial situation they would have made it easier to get one, they knew is was THE windows 8 phone that every one was looking forward to and wanted.... HTC 8x or 8s seems to be the one now having just read some reviews, only let down is the storage options, can be easily solved with the 8s by buying a 32gb Micro sd card for £20~, but the 8x only comes with 16gb and no sd slots :/

Comparison of 8x/s and 8/920


EDIT: just seen above post about 920 sim free!

You can order online but only to a home address. Also, it doesn't say when its going to be delivered. I am going to pop to town to ask.

Ahh I see fair enough. It mentioned next day delivery on the checkout process but that can obviously be generic text for when they are actually getting hand sets out

 

[gilesjuk]

So I can pop into a store and get one tomorrow? (except I've got to take my car in for an MOT at lunchtime, doh).

Why not a Nexus 4?

I'd ring your local stock, just to double check first.

 

[gilesjuk]

Digital Phone says their stock is due in on the 5th. So they still are getting some.

If true than theres my answer

 

[FatFishMonster]

think what im gunna do is just save up £400ish and then see whats avaliable on sim free as ive already got a contract. i wont have enough money to buy any of these when they are launched either

 

[gilesjuk]

Clove says it's looking doubtful they will get any.

I think a lot of those SIM free sellers list stuff before they've even got a clue about when they will get it or whether they will even get it at all.

 

[Bennie-Mac]

This is a shambles, im now considering upgrading to an iPhone 5, selling it and buying a nexus outright and pocket the £££s difference.

 

[gilesjuk]

Yup and they should expect to get some. But this is Nokia who seem to think that people walk into a shop, talk to the sales person and then buy what he recommends. So they feel having a shop that sells a lot of WP devices should sell all of them.

But two other SIM free vendors said they are getting some, so they must be using unofficial channels?

Result
Now do I just turn up late for work, or wait for my lunch break

 

[Kasc]

When they say you can only get them on EE... does this include Orange and T-Mobile? I have absolutely no interesting in having a 4G phone right now, does this mean if I want the Lumia 920 I need to get it sim free?
