Lumia 930 availability

[Br1an_g]

looks like i am going to move from Three to EE. EE 4g coverage for me at home and work whereas Three is no 4g at my home and skethcy coverage at work. i did notice the free sim which gives you 10Gb data if you top up ?15 a month. might be worth buying the handset and getting this deal as its mostly data i use..will pop into a store on the way home tonight and see what they are offering, i would like the wireless pack but its not a deal breaker.

[EDIT] just noticed the 10Gb is a one off allowance to be used within 90 days.
they do havea 24 month plan which gives 10Gb double speed 4g, unlimited calls & texts for 32.99 a month. this looks like a winner

Just got an e-mail from unlocked mobiles UK telling me they'll be shipping on the 16th for delivery on the 17 th. Their pre orders will include the extras as well.

Clove UK will have stock of the Black 930 on 17th July and and will come with 1 x DC-50 wireless charger plate (2400mAh battery & wireless charger in one),1 x MD-12 wireless speaker and 1 x ?20 voucher for free apps from the Windows store. PRICE ?435

De-lurking on this thread again [last time was to rant about the delays and threaten to buy an LG G3 instead...which didn't happen!]. I almost pulled the trigger last week from Amazon.fr but held off for the UK retailers. Just ordered the orange 930 from Clove, where I got my 920 from and had a really smooth order & delivery. Really pleased that the price came down AND that Clove ended up stocking more than the black model [I noticed that they had removed the white one a few days back, guessing on the back of the P4U exclusivity]. I saw that someone earlier on this thread got to choose an orange speaker, but I don't mind getting the white bundle since it's a bonus either way.
Two quick questions for anyone that has got a 930 to replace an older handset running 8.1:
1) does the backup feature work just like iTunes restore for iPhone? When I went from my Samsung Omnia 7 to Lumia 920 there wasn't the greatest of "restore" functions available - I don't mind losing some game saves [that's dependent on the devs I think], but I'd like to get settings & apps transferred over without much faff.
2) Having a EU/UK version of 8.1, I'm guessing Cortana is not available unless you enable the same region swap as before? I've gotten quite used to having her on my 920 and I love Quiet Hours, but I'm kinda over having the US date format for everything. I know there's still no firm release date for Cortana, but does the search button just bring up Bing in her absence?

Cheers!

New email from EE:

"Hi Gavin

From 11th July the Nokia Lumia 930 will be available for pre order and will launch on 17th July.

We have a new hero pricing offer, so the Nokia Lumia 930 is free of charge on our EE regular ?29.99 price plan with 1GB, 1000 minutes and unlimited texts until 31st July.

While stocks last, pay monthly customers can also get a free gift with this phone (valued at ?130) which includes a wireless charger, wireless speaker and ?20 Windows store voucher.

And for just ?3 more, customers can boost their data to 10GB and get unlimited broadband at Home "

So, I'm not getting the ?100 cashback (from CPW), but I also don't have to spend the same ?100 buying out my current EE contract.... My current bill is ?33p/m, only I get 1GB allowance - to be honest, I think that EE deal is a blinder!!!

wonder if its the 4G+ or just 4G for the 10Gb.. great deal though, will be asking about it tonight!

 

[Racing Snake]

Ok, don't know... (what is 4G+?!!)

But I've just taken them up on it.
The ?3 for an extra 10GB is a bit of a squizz as it's dependent on you taking their broadband.... but I'm paying ?55 per month for my BB with BT, so I've taken them up on their broadband too, which will be ?30 per month instead.

My order for the 930 is in now too, so just have to sit back and wait

Only slightly annoying thing was that he said it's posted on the 17th so I probably won't see it until the 18th... or even the 21st! (after the weekend).

Fingers crossed!

 

[Br1an_g]

they seem to offer a normal 4G and a double speed 4G+ on their website which seems like another money making scheme i suppose.

Strange isn't it I was told this morning that it was the 14th. Are you going to ring them in the morning to find out?

 

[Br1an_g]

Went into an ee store on way home and they have nothing on their systems to say it's available to pre order yet. Will try again tomorrow.

Err, no, I emailed back to confirm I wanted to go ahead and could they call me tomorrow to sign up, and he phoned me immediately and said he could do it now.... which he did ... and got the email confirming it!.

 

[sumwerensilence]

If i order the German version from Amazon.de and get it delivered to the USA will it work on ATT? I wasnt sure if the versions in different countries all had the same radios. I know LTE won't work

Damn them lol, who did you email? Can you give me the email address?

 

[Racing Snake]

lol, will pm you rather than post it here... I'm sure they work on commission, but it wouldn't be fair to make it public.
