Free delivery if you choose the express shipping option for some reason

That's an interesting point. Some people buy iPhones to help elevate their appearance in public (conspicuous consumption). If you speak to these people most of them have the cheapest base spec model with next to no storage space and consequently don't use it much. I wonder what it says that someone shells out for the latest flagship Android phone not caring about residual values. That they have even more money than the iPhone user who keeps the same phone for years because 'it just works' (even with a smashed up screen that they appear to be too impoverished to replace)? Does that make flagship Android owners more appealing to the discerning observer?

early reviews seem very promising. This or the s7 edge??

it'll be £400 in 3 weeks

Let's wait for it to appear on O2 refresh plan and I will grab one

Really impressed with this. Looks great & seems to have top of the line camera, battery, audio, screen and design.
Will have to wait for the reviews to know for sure but £512 is not bad to get on Day 1.

Have been a Samsung, and currently a Nexus owner and I got to admit this phone looks very appealing.

The camera seems to be as good as the Samsung S7 too, which is promising...

I have a htc one m8 and tempted by this. Just hope the camera is on point this time

It's from the Hopeless Telephone Company. Flaws and complaints to surface after the launch hype dies down.

The problem with HTC is that they release a flagship phone and then 2 months later they release a slightly updated version, doesn't fill me with confidence.

First impressions from Techradar:

HTC 10

Camera on this phone is on par if not better than the S7

Phew, saves me from getting an s7 Edge, couldn't live with the design cues it copied from Apple.

this has objectively the BEST* camera on the market right now
*according to dxmark
** on par with S7 edge

Small battery for a powerful phone. I understand they want to keep the phones small and compact (I personally would have preferred a bigger screen) but battery capacity must go up as the spec does.

Gonna take a good look at this. Got an S6 edge right now, and camera aside (wow!), I'm not overly impressed. Having had apple and HTC in the past my best experiences have always been with HTC due to the beautifully intuitive UI.

Unfortunately after buying the M9 last year I wouldn't ever buy a HTC again.

Worst phone that I have ever owned :disappointed:

​Yeah that's me but I think I'll wait 6 weeks as you'll be able to buy HTC Corp for £400

Lacks standout innovation

"Refined to the power of 10"

By the power of Greyskull!

It has awesome specs but looks a bit... Chunky and unwieldy?

Yeah I know... cos thats when I bought it... What I'm saying is the interface on my HTC one was MUCH better than the interface on the S6 Edge... too many pointless touches needed on the S6 and the out of the box widgets are rubbish.

I'm definitely getting one, although tempted to wait for O2 Refresh deals to appear..

Battery life won't be good. 3000mah is not enough these days.

Had an M8 and M9 and both riddled with issues. Software, battery etc. Shame because the M7 was one of my fave devices. Staying away from this one unfortunately.

agree but still better than the edge at 2600mah.. If only some of these chinese phones could produce a phone with a solid camera..

got the M8 and HTC have been great with the updates.

also gotta love those Boomsound speakers :wink:

I agree, the Redmi Note 3 Pro (32gb, 3gb RAM) is a solid phone, great price point but camera is a let down.

Still for HTC difficult to sell at this price against G5 and S7, as they are much established and have bigger marketing spending than HTC, If HTC want to sell they have to lower the price at least 20% compared to others, furthermore not to forget Huawei and another small Chinese company is increasing their portfolio rapidly

HTC is still in overconfidence that they can sell this piece at £512.99 against others???? No Way

Nice phone and spec, good price with 10% off at least £130 cheaper than an S7 Edge.
My only concern would be battery life with that daft QHD display, they should have stuck with 1080P for better battery life.

I think the LG g5 is probably more promising with its modular capabilities. Also currently cheaper on o2 refresh.

I the S7 and Edge both seem very good phones which are solid updates I just really wish Touchwhiz wasn't a thing, I have always found it to be hideous, more akin to their old hardware.

rather wait a few more months and get the new iphone 7

contract is up end of the. month so will upgrade to this can't wait to get back to a htc phone. best phones i have ever had

I have a nine running venom rom, really wouldn't a ten.

It doesn't bring anything new to the table, it has the generic iphone clone look about it.
I am seriously considering the Moto x style, bigger screen and no bloat, very good camera and certainly a lot cheaper at under £300 new. Reviews are reasonable generally.

The style camera won't compare to this. The sensor in this is the same as the 6P.

Sense 8.0 has very little bloat and most hands on have praised the software.

Screen is a personal choice and you can't say much about the price.

For those complaining about the battery, 3000mah is on par with the current snapdragon 820 flagships.

I'm still using a 3 year old HTC One. Been thinking of buying a new phone but fancied the Sony Xperia Z5. Camera is the most important thing to me.

rip off

HTC make superb phones I've had the last 3 flagships not one has given me a moment's bother hot from me.

Good deal. Very possibly my next phone to replace the M8

When is it released? Cant see anything on the website

bye bye nexus 6p sending that crap back to google


this phone is

The problem is this will be worth £300 eventually.

Cheers. I've placed my order and it says I'll receive another email within 48hrs regarding shipping ie I dont think it is immediate, but I can wait.

A shame this is missing the IR remote control feature that the m9 and m8 had. That's a deal breaker for me...

Very compelling argument......ever considered a career in politics?

Good deal.. but s7 & edge wins

I use it all the time. At home combined with Fire TV Remote and Yatse to control what I watch.
At my parents house and at work sometimes too (as someone lost the remote to the break room TV).

M7 was a great phone
M8 was good but internal 16GB a let down
M9 wasn't much of an improvement
HTC 10 looks good and specs seem to have sorted out the disappointments in previous models. I have never liked Samsungs so this could not come sooner!

The outer frame par example...

It does seem to lack the innovation of competing devices, waterproof would have had me interested but as it stands its just the same old thing from HTC. The M7 innovated with it aluminium body but since then all HTC have done is updated the internals.

Over £500 for an Android phone, no thanks.

It will be half that in 6 months.

S7 edge still better, but I'm pleasantly surprised by the design. They've finally gotten rid of the **** horrible logo under the screen which was such a glaring waste of space and ruined the symmetry.

I love my HTC One, it's an M7 which is still going strong. Avoided upgrading to the M8 as it was not really progress and M9 not too different either. 10 does look promising though.

That's spec comparison I mean "hands on" spec wise there is very little difference.

No

Can't decide whether to buy sim free or not. Have 12 months left on contract so buy out is 560 then I can sign up to new deal, or I can buy sim free for this. Sell my s6 edge for 250 so upgrade from 300 really

Seems a two horse race now for 2016's best Android phone between the M10 & the S7 unless you really like the G5's expensive "friends", it's an interesting option if you want something different than the usual iPhone/Sammy? Problem with mobile reviews generally is they go OTT with every new phone announcement, they were saying the G5 was the best when it was announced, before coming to their senses later.

Well that video helped convince me that the HTC 10 is the better phone. Better sound with hardware DAC and HTCs awesome front stereo speakers. Adoptable memory, laser focus, HTC sense etc.

Just ordered a Black one.

I've had hours of fun in pubs and such like with the ir blaster on my old phone,changing channels or turning off the tv at that all important moment of a football match lol

If I applied for Paypal credit could I use it and buy this?
I dont really fancy paying £500 upfront, would rather spread cross 2-3 months

really tempted with this one even though im enjoying the G5 more than the S7 (dual camera too good) and find the design not as bad in person. The free audio gear on ee was definitely worth it. Going to wait for the reviews and any freebies!?

This looks really good. As a stock android man I really like how minimal sense is and that they have gone with Google apps for any applications not specialist. I've literally just bought a 5X again but if this is as good as it looks on paper I can see a phone clear out soon. Only thing putting me off is HTC rumoured to be doing Nexus and the next Nexus and iPhone will need to be special... Maybe hold off for a bit...

Airplay from an android device without root of awesome too..I mainly use Google music and Chromecast audio but still nice to have both on android like you get with iPhone.

​I used it in every pub and tv store only to make out the TVs were broken or faulty.

s7 edge is 3600mah not 2600mah, unless youre talking about s6 edge

It doesn't have front stereo speakers...

lol samsung had that metal frame design first in the galaxy s1.

the s7 has aperture f1.7 htc10 has f1.8, s7 edge is overall better since battery life is better. but thats just my opinion.

it does htc confirmed it

Link? All I'm finding is that it has a woofer and a tweeter.

http://www.phonearena.com/news/So-the-HTC-10-has-two-loudspeakers-after-all-but-they-are-not-for-stereo_id80166

Even with a theatre mode you still won't get the same sound as two front facing speakers. It'll be interesting to see what the reviews say.

Two things holding me back...
In a few months, the price will probably drop. And by then, we will be so close to a new Nexus, you would probably be better off waiting a little more for that. The Nexus will likely be the same price as a discounted htc10, and with better specs & support

Are you just choosing to cherry pick specifications? What the better UI, High Definition audio featuring Hardware DAC and stereo speakers etc?

No, that's not what I mean.
If software and value is what you want when buying a 2016 flagship, then a nexus would also be near the top of your list. Buying an S7 or G5 at the start of the year is farvaway enough from a nexus to make it worthwhile for you. However, HTC, Sony and others dont have the same kind of cachet. By the time the HTC10 becomes really compelling, you'll be so close to the nexus launch specifically, I think you'd be better off waiting for it. It'll be significantly better supported, and be a better value, as it'll probably be a similar price to the discounted HTC 10 and better specced

I am comparing the htc10 to the (admittedly unknown) 2016 nexus...
I'm not saying that "the next phone" will always better, that's not a helpful comment

Ah OK, it read like you were comparing upcoming undefined phone. If you are willing to wait then that's absolutely what do, all specs will be fully known and comparable and the prices will be more competitive. I personally never buy phones at launch for that very same reason. However I have ordered this as I purchased a Sony Z5 a couple of months back which has now been "claimed" by my wife :smile:

Yes, I remember copying music viai infrared! :smile:
I've downloaded a new IR app (Anymote) on my m8 which is great when I misplace my own remote and it controls the hifi system too. I'll definitely miss the infrared port. I'm stuck now about getting the G5 or this, but I really like the m10 design...

htc why the low position of the home button but the big bezel? let's just wait and see how bad the camera is this time despite saying "best in class" not holding my breath ....again :disappointed:

the thing that always puts be off the nexus is lack of micro SD card. shame the HTC is nor waterproof but I've had a z3 for 18 months and never dared submerge it anyway.

just sold my htc one m9 had it a week.the screen on it was generations behind.and not because it was only full hd.my g.flex 2 screen is only full hd but looks amazing.i hope htc get get this phone right the m7 was fantastic

I dont really care about the speakers since i use portable speakers, i also dont use DAC for my music I have a mp3 player for that, and Ive always hated htcs UI, Sense 7 and 8 was horrible, but again thats just my opinion. When I choose a phone i look at the camera, the design, the screen quality, and the performance, and so far i think the s7 edge is just the best for having everything one could ever want. But again this is only my opinion

don't think you will be able to get it for 300 soon. last year's flagship still cost more thank that. also it's be or not to be on the market for HTC so they won't reduce proce soon. but you might consider fetting Xiaomi mi5. similar specs and you can get it new for 360 inc delivery.

must have the latest phone.... lombards!!!

I think that some people on here are forgetting about the purpose of this forum - to post deals that will save the rest of us money, today. Debates around what phone is better and future pricing is redundant here.

As I said before - good deal OP. Thanks. :smile:

Anyone has an idea of whether the pre-order option is 32 or 64 gigs ? Can't find the info anywhere.. :/

Well according to HTC's site:
You are completely right, it's not a big deal, but still - I think it would be nice to know what you're buying :smiley:

But my worry is apps can't be moved to the microsd card so in a way base storage does limit you

Since Marshmallow 6.0, you can move apps to microsd

What is HTC's return policy?
Cant find any info on their uk site.

Used to always be a big HTC fan until I had issues. Worst company to deal with, sent my phone off 7 times to get it fixed and each time they sent it back they still didnt fix it.

The issue was on the HTC One X, multiple dead pixels and the glass wasnt fitted properly so if you pressed it right in the middle, the screen would warp inwards and make contact with the touch-screen component.

An isolated example of a poor quality build I'm sure, but the negligence on their end and the "don't care" attitude put me off for life. If you want an android, get a Samsung. If you want a HTC, just pray nothing goes wrong with it or that their customer service team has improved in the past 2 years.

Picking of the cherries

Looks good, wonder if they finally have a decent camera after the last few mis-steps.

To me it looks pretty underwhelming, considering its not that different to the previous models, it also looks a bit like an iPhone 3g, it doesn't really have anything over the (never thought I'd say this about a Samsung) S7 edge (or LG G5) and it needs to sell a bucket load of these to stay afloat!
Pass. But heat for the price/find :smiley:

Don't see how the RRP is a deal

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

I went into my HTC 10 briefing thinking HTC had a lot of catching up to do, with so many awesome devices on the market. I came out won over.

The HTC 10 is a well-designed phone with a string of exciting features that I’m genuinely excited about testing out. If HTC’s lofty claims about the battery and camera turn out to be true, there’s going to be a lot to like here. It might lack the waterproof powers of the Galaxy S7, or the funky switchable modules of the G5, but its approach to fine-tuning things like audio and tackling the bloatware problem on Android could be killer features.

There’s a long way to go, but HTC could have a great phone on its hands here.

They don't even have a release date!? Amazon does, as does amazon 1st of May, as does Carphone Warehouse and Clove. What gives?

From what I read you have to format the card as internal storage to do this. Once you do the device stores everything on the sd card completely ignoring the real internal memory, which is usually faster.

If true you are sacrificing speed for space.

Depends if you buy a cheap card or a fast one, an SD card can be faster!

£300 will not be anytime soon.
Samsungs prices drop quickly.
HTC's retail prices hold.
Look at the M9, its still going for £350+ on Amazon brand new

Performance is one thing I will never get when people mention Samsung. I mean, I really wanted an S7 Edge, but my goodness, all that power and hardware (yes the hardware is awesome) and yet Samsung simply can't get software optimisation sorted out properly. Reviews always state the "weird" UI stutter, dropped frames etc. I see it too and it makes me cringe.

To each their own of course, but I'll be going with this for the cleaner, leaner software, coupled with HTC offering a pretty swift update policy. The better more powerful DAC is a plus. The camera is pretty close to the S7/Edge too. No, the HTC 10 won't be beating the S7 in terms of pure focus speed. However, their post processing is a lot softer and leave's a lot of detail in the shot, rather than Samsung's tendency to over sharpen the hell out of everything. Totally forgot about the 24bit audio when recording videos too.

Pre ordered. Hopefully get it before other places ordering straight from htc

Samsung took off nearly all bloatware, you can disable the rest too, it has absolutely zero stutter and it beat the lg g5 which has the same cpu/gpuhas the m10 in the speedtest,for opening apps and browsing. I had the s5 so i know what stutter you're talking about, but its long gone with the s7 and even the s6.

I beg to differ, it's still there. Even sites like anandtech comment about it.

Has anyone's shipped yet? Because it says in stock?

I think it's strange they won't disclose it. I haven't even gotten an confirmation email yet.

Nope, like someone else said, like various people on XDA have said. Yes, they have trimmed it down from "what it was".It pales in comparison to in terms of bloat to what the recent versions of have Sense have been, more so the new Sense. It does still lag, it does still have UI stutter and dropped frames. I'm not saying Samsung haven't improved, they have but they still have a way to go.

I saw a speedtest in which the S7 Edge barely beat the G5. There is a difference between speed and smoothness. Samsung devices are typically fast when going from A to B, but the journey is a stuttering mess. The G5 isn't the most optimised device in the world either, they have a heavy skin. We'll need to see an actual speed comparison between the S7 and HTC 10.

Well I don't know, Ive had the htc m7 m8 m9 z3 and lg g4, aswell as s5 s6 note 5 s7. I didnt see any noticable lagg on the s7 at all it all felt smooth and optimised. And looking wise, the s7 edge looks beautiful without a case (looks bezel-less). However since theres no tempered glass for the edge yet which is good. I would probably go for the htc 10, especially since it scored 156000 in antutu which is about 26k more than the s7 edge that im using. Im probably just gonna wait for the note 6, as im just not a big fan of sense UI, I may considerate it after I review it. We'll see

For those that pre-ordered direct from HTC website, did they take the money straightaway or is it likely to be day of release?

Ordered, can't wait , looks awesome and great spec.

Not totally true. On stock android yes but if depends on the manufacturer. Samsung chose not to allow it for instance. I'm hoping with HTC working so close with Google they have!

Also wrong. I've tried it on the HTC M8 I converted to GPE. You can specifically say where to store which app in app setting. Really good for Spotify! It does encrypt the card for internal memory option so that it only works for that phone though.

Been waiting for this for ages.

Looks like its time for my trusty HTC One M8 to be traded in...

reviews are out, enjoy for those who have ordered...

I've ordered one, my first HTC since the disappointing HTC One mini 2 (looked great but poor build quality).

The 10 looks great and seems to have addressed grips like bloat and battery life so fingers crossed it delivers. Apparently the earbuds supplied in the UK are high res, nice bonus if they are.

ordered one too, last HTC was the original Desire! got the 4G EE deal of £19 16GB, so very happy....

Here
It has been all over HUKD for weeks lol. I'm on 20gb for £18 p/m. I just threatened to leave

Does the money get taken immediately?

Could I set up a Paypal credit account (4 month installments) and use it? Would it start straight away or once its been shipped?
https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/paypal-virtual-credit
Paypal credit came out a few days ago for UK.

I'm undecided where to buy from but might just pre-order from HTC for now.

​ahh ok. its a sim deal which would mean i buy the handset upfront for £500+... can't afford to do this so thats why I go for monthly contract to spread cost across 24months. good deals to be had either way i think

the camera reviews are not so good but hopefully can be fixed with software updates... anyone seen cost of ice view case yet?

Ordered, my first non-Samsung Galaxy S so I'm hoping it won't let me down.

Most charts show the S7 Snapdragon 820 version so not the UK one. would like to see how that compares. HTC's quick charge and USB-c port looks good. I've read reviews that seem to be more critcal of the HTC while constantly fawning over the S7. Pre ordered it now anyway with the discount so looking forward to it...

International should be the Exynos model. The one we get in UK

You seem to be extrapolating 'not-as-good-as' it being 'terrible' which is not what these graphs are saying at all. From reading the full reviews both on Ars/Anand and elsewhere, sure Samsung outperforms it in some areas, but the numbers and testimony show that the M10 is still a very solid high-end performer. For storage, sure Samsung does have an advantage for sure with it's NVMe storage which does make it super fast compared to it's peers (iPhone 6/s i believe also has something similar). eMMC is still good enough for now and thats what is shown here. As a user of the 6p with encryption on, it's no slouch in that department, ive yet to encounter anything significant that I can attribute to the encryption slowing it down.

The anand battery test shows the HTC 10 matching the S7. Some seem to also be missing the point that the S7 had power saver enabled, vs the HTC 10 which had power saver disabled......

Marshmallow phones come with full disk encryption already so the performance you see in videos is how fast it is going to be regardless. Most reviewers state the S7 and HTC 10 trades blows

Still, the UM Exynos variant of the S7 is where things change. The Exynos chip is more efficient than the 820. Still, for someone who likes to root their phone, Samsung is a bit meh. Samsung pay is disabled forever and Knox is tripped.

Means that if you plan to sell the phone, you'll need to inform them that both have been tripped. A shame really. Samsung's software is awful too, probably the most powerful, stuttery phone I've seen. Goes from A to B quickly but then journey is full of dropped frames etc. Camera and display is on point though.

Ordered on Thursday last week. No payment taken as yet.

Debating whether to pre-order using the discount code or wait and see if Very will sell it - could potentially use their 20% discount for new customers (as per the Samsung Galaxy S7 deal). Any thoughts?

I'd go with this deal and get it at launch.

No guarantees that Very will sell it and even if they do they may charge more than the RRP.

HTC have a verry bad support.
1 week ago have ordered this phone but in tabs i had 2 version silver and black ones, so by mistake i have ordered the black version and i wanted silver. After preorder i have send masage via email to them and no answear, until monday, when i had an live chat with them, and ask what is going on. The guy from live support tell me someone else from e-commerce will call me monday tuesday, but no calls monday tuesday wednesday, and even today thursday, so today I have another chat with live support and the guy tell me my preorder is closed and i can order another phone without to worry about to be charge for my first phone, but, NOW discount code "HTC10" is not working anymore :disappointed: .

What I can tell is HTC have a verry bad customers support.

They do. I contacted them about changing my order from carbob grey to silver and was promised several call backs but so far nobody had called.

The code does work, it just doesnt seem to work immeditely, give it a few trys in all Caps and it should work.

Suggest just canceling and re-ordering.

Code is working somehow, but when you go on final checkout you will see it have full price, and if you try to put again discount code is not working anymore.
Have reported this issue to support.

Code appears to be working fine again now.

Still tempted by the 12 month contract offer with Vodafone though. 10GB Data, unlimited minutes & texts, and after cashback it works out at £48 per month, which effectively makes the sim just over a fiver a month.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............. decisions!

Yes but Vodafone is not a great network for 4G...

hmm do I cancel and re-order using paypal credit decisions.
Dont wanna cancel then find out, my phones in some sort of a backlog and delivery date is much later than those who pre-ordered when they first went live.

For who want to know ...

Anyone got an email yet about shipping. Haven't heard a thing since placing my order over two weeks ago.

Release date is the 6th so I would expect shipping from Tuesday/Wednesday

Would be nice of HTC to confirm this to customers. I want the Ice View case to put my new phone straight into. HTC site doesn't let you buy it though (would be nice to get 10% off too). MobileFun says expected 2-3 weeks. Again HTC need to get a grip!

Looks like the code isn't working now. I'm trying to call HTC but think there's nobody there on the bank holiday

Htc have always said shipping in early May. An exact date would be nice but guessing they don't want to commit in case they are late.
Amazon have the ice case says released 1st may

No dice with a cookie and cache clear. I'll attempt again tomorrow as well as follow up with HTC when they've got someone in the office.

Got confirmation from HTC today, code has expired.

The code is now working again! What are HTC playing at?

This is brilliant. I've just cancelled the Amazon order and bought it with the discount. Phoned HTC and they can only confirm that it's shipping "in May". A £50 saving is good enough for me though

Anyone had shipping yet? I can't seem to log in to there order status to track and noone on chat or on phone when I rang support yesterday can tell me when it ships. The quality of service is shocking. Considering canceling order and waiting for OnePlus3 or something else.

Amazon says release date now 18th May. What are they playing at?

most recent tweets from @HTC_UK say "pre-orders will commence shipping from 6th May and available for purchase from 13th May"

No shipping email thus far, in fact not even an order comfirmation email ! vey very poor customer service/marketing from HTC

And now we wait for delivery...

Anyone had a shipping notification?

Nothing from htc, alot of cpw and mobiles.co.uk have already got deliveries confirmed for today. So poor work by htc

Is this 32Gb or 64Gb? Can't see any mention on the HTC site.

Also @HTC_UK twitter is telling customers their orders will be shipped today! Oof. Oh and the code HTC10 still works O.o

It's 32GB

Shipping for pre-orders are starting today 6 May. You will receive email when your phone will be shipped.

Anyone get a dispatch email today?

No, was told this morning by @HTC_UK on twitter I'd be getting a shipping email soon having checked my order BUT couldn't tell me when soon would be as a seperate ecommerce team deals with the orders. Grr !
For info I placed my order on 15/04

I've just had an email saying they're "about to finalize my order" and take payment.

I spoke to HTC on the phone again yesterday and they advised me all pre-orders should've shipped by the end of Saturday (07/05)

I had payment about to be taken round midnight too ... nothing further thus far.

Any joy today? Nothing for me :disappointed:

No, cant see payment being taken either.

On other forums no one else has had anything. So we've gone from htc saying early May, to nothing. To start on 6th May to they'll all be done on 7th May. Yer were on 8th May and still nothing has happened except people who ordered from cpw have theirs already. Great showing by htc

Yeah this is poor now. I wouldn't mind if they just gave an honest date. I'm calling again tomorrow morning to see what's what. Called the bank today and they've not even seen any activity from HTC - meaning the email sent about payment was probably just sent to everyone

yer the email went to everyone no matter what date you pre ordered!

Absolutely shocking release by Htc, whatever happened to just giving a straight release date! No wonder they are in trouble! I've been so tempted to cancel, why couldn't they just release like they did with the m8

There's a £1 pending on my credit card from Digital River, but so far no money taken.

Pretty poor communication from HTC, but I can wait tbh.

just had a text from my credit card company to check if this transaction was legit, so looks like HTC finally decided to take my money :smiley: now to wait for that despatch email.

canceled my order & purchased of very.co.uk with the 20% off code, whats ive should be here tomorrow

Very don't have silver in stock sadly

If you don't mind telling me, how much did the phone cost you in the end?

Bittersweet dispatch email received.

It's on it's way! :smile:
It's coming by Hermes! :disappointed:

Wahey! One down.. Here's hoping some more of them emails get sent out today

What date did you order? And which colour

I ordered the Silver, and only ordered it last Friday (6th May).

From htc? I ordered silver from htc on 13/04 and still nothing! Payment taken yesterday

Yup, direct from HTC.

Payment was taken late last night.

I've not even had my payment taken yet.. So much waiting

Had mine today, very happy with the phone

That's an amazing price. You should post that as a deal. Thats really good..

already a deal,

all new very accounts get 20% off their 1st orders

so works out £579 - 20% + 3.99 shipping

Finally received "HTC - Shipping Confirmation". Is comming with Hermes.

I've just had a very odd (and slightly exciting) email from HTC...


:confused:

Still waiting for my exciting email.

Got a shipping email from HTC at 2:30PM today.

An hour later got a delivery from Hermes with phone!!!!

The same has happened to me except I wasn't in :-( I've also had the Vive bundle email but I'd attribute that to a mistake with their pre-order system

Finally got mine today out of the blue, no shipping email etc just turned up. Ordered on 13th

Received shipping email today around 2pm, parcel tracking with Hermes only showing as order generated so suspect be a couple of days till it arrives.

No shipping email and ordered on the 13th. Phoned to cancel order today as thought whats the point in ordering a phone for release date that has been and gone. Will probably now go with very deal....

Mine was left on the doorstep today, with a couple dead pixels to boot.

Ordered my phone direct from HTC yesterday, got the confirmation yesterday and had the shipping confirmation today.

No complaints so far

I've got two charges pending on my credit card from HTC, one for the £512.99 and a second one has popped up for £528.19!!

Not happy. Will see what HTC have to say about it.

I got payment confirmation email today although payment was taken a couple of days ago, along with shipping/tracking confirmation which states it was generated on the 10th, meaning I should have had the phone today (or it'll arive tomorrow). I've also heard people being sent european plugs too which I fully expect to recieve too. So considering I order on 15/04 and frankly shocking experience I've decided to cancel my order.

got mine last week, UK plug. very nice phone. tried Very but gave up after delivery delayed till 7th June.

​Htc have been pretty crappy for some years now. The m8 was good. But don't let that sway you, this is their best phone in a very long time. It is a goodie

Ordered today, code still works. Heat!

Still not £400, you lied.

​ a fool and his money are easily separated!!

This or LG G5?

​still not £400

Saw it for £399 in Dixon at airport, so months and months after and only at a airport. Worth the price we paid on release if ask me
