Bell Canada launching the 8X on Nov. 15th!

[vortoozo]

For those folks having trouble finding the phone in Bell stores, have a look at The Source.
Their website has stock info and there is stock at many locations throughout Nova Scotia, including Truro.
I had the same issue here on Vancouver Island locating the 8X and was able to find one through the Source on the weekend. They are able to do the early upgrade as well.

Their website does say 2 in stock in Truro... You know where I'm heading after class today. Strange that the source gets them before Bell... But thanks a million!

Not sure if it know but Bell owns them.

Good luck man!

Bell owns The Source? I thought they just had a partnership to sell their phones lol. Does RadioShack still exist in Canada? Did Bell buy them out?

Either way lol. They did have em in stock but I can't get to Truro until tomorrow.. One delay after another lol

The Source is owned by circuit City and bought out the radio shack stores in Nova Scotia

Were you at least able to reserve one for tomorrow?

Tell your Bell store to stop whoring all the 8X's and send some along the 102 to... Every other store in Nova Scotia haha!

Congrats man. I was about to snap if you still couldn't find the phone. Keep the impressions coming.

I do miss the dark blacks of my Samsung, but the more realistic colours make it a fair trade off!

I also picked up an Avoca rubber case for it, the only one they had. As much as I really do hate cases, I'm going to use one for the meantime at least until the problems with colours wearing off gets sorted.
Avoca Mobile Products : HTC 8X Cool Wave Transparent - BLUE

I was on the phone for almost 4 hours last night and had more than 50% battery remaining, so no complaints there yet!

So what exactly is the $0 term with the 8X at Bell? I ask because I'm hearing you get a $50 store credit. If that's the case, what did you guys put it towards?

 

[anon(5334066)]

I didn't get that offer at The Source.. but I was in a rush and didn't ask for it. I did get that with my first LG Quantum though lol. I used to get that device for $0 at the time. If I happen to be there again within the next few days I will ask, otherwise I'm not really concerned about it. Just glad to have gotten the phone honestly.

 

[GreekboyD]

So you signed the $49 deal for 3 years then? Maybe the $0 is just a Bell store thing.

Lol...I don't blame you man.

 

[anon(5334066)]

No, I signed on for $0 lol sorry about that.

Deal for anyone in Vancouver who doesn't sign 3 year plans. Mobile DNA, a Bell retailer in Landsdowne Mall, is selling it for $389 outright. They will even unlock it for you maybe if you are not Bell.
