Its been quite funny watching this issue spread. My second 8x has had reboots. Also my wifeys has as well. To be honest im convinced its an OS issue. The phone is awesome though. It feels like a huge upgrade from my lumia 800. Luckily the OTA upgrade potential in WP8 fills me with hope that...

Ha that was me speaking to soon. My first reboot on my black 8x!

I returned my Blue 8x on Saturday to phones4u for an exchange. Unfortunately they didn't have any California blue left in stock so I asked to swap it for a black 8x. So far (touch wood) I've not had any reboots. My wife has had a few reboots over the weekend and she has a blue 8x.

Exchange done. Unfortunately they didn't have any blue 8x left in stock so Ive now got a black one. Ill see how this one goes

My problem has gone from bad to better to worse. I've had about 6 reboots tonight since around 3pm. Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday weren't bad. Only had a couple of reboots. Ive been reading this thread to see what other new 8x owners have experienced. It looks like ive got a bad unit. My wife...

A quick update. I've had 2 reboots today. My wife set hers up from o2 yesterday evening and shes just had a reboot too.

The 8x actually feels lighter in the hand to me. I think that its due to the weight distribution over a larger body. I have pretty big hands (im 6'2") but my wife has tiny hands and she found the 8x better to hold than the iphone5. The camera is leaps and bounds better than the 800. The camera...

I've been having issues with reboots. However, I think the phone is utterly fantastic. I'm an early adopter and I expect there to be some challenges. I actually think its a software issue not hardware. ****, I bought the lumia 800 on its release last year and my first unit had to be returned...

So its 24 hours later and I've not had anymore reboots (down from 4-5). I cant imagine it was the Facebook app but I wont be reinstalling it. Hoping that it doesn't happen again. Maybe someone else who's having reboots could uninstall the FB app to see if it resolves their issue?

I've just posted on the reboot thread. But I'll post here to. I've been deleting apps to see if it helps with the reboots. I deleted the Facebook app at about 6 and I've not had any since. Ill update tomorrow if this has solved the issue

Im probably going to curse my luck here but I've been deleting apps to see if any were causing the reboots. I uninstalled the Facebook app and I've not had any reboots since. Ill update tomorrow if this changes.

You can buy it from phones4u for ?379. Its not sim free as you have to get it with a pay as you go sim with ?10 on it. They are unlocked to all networks though.

Blue 8x. With a reboot issue here. Other than the reboot issue I really like the phone.

Hi everyone. I picked up an unlocked blue from Phones4u on Saturday. I've moved from a lumia 800 and Im very impressed with it so far. The screen quality is awesome. However I am also experiencing random reboots during use. Im hoping that its a software issue. Im giving it till Wednesday before...
