Ive ordered 2 covers from Takealot importing from UK. They are only set to arrive on the 22nd :o

I really need a cover for my phone ASAP. Does nobody stock them in SA?

cant seem to find one. will try on ebay.
 
Those covers are impossible to find in SA

I had to use Takealots import service but even then I didnt get the cover I want

I still want to order the official cover c700 and the rock quick sand in grey, they look great
 
I would like to see if Cell C will get the OneX and how they price it. With their new straight up contracts that they releasing, I would much rather sign with cell c than vodacom. If vodacom had released the OneX earlier I would have signed with then.. for a whole 24months. Much rather go with cell c now.. maybe it's a good thing they didnt release it earlier.. haha! time to switch!!

Damn.. HTC has no presence in SA! sucks. and Leaf is useless.
 
For anyone wanting to purchase one for cash, I ordered mine from clove.co.uk. Delivery took 2 working days with DHL International Courier. Customs was 14% VAT + 10% duties. They also have quite a few accessories.

Battery life is slightly worse than my previous iPhone 4S, however I am doing a lot more on my phone. Its not an issue for me as it always lasts longer than a day.

that was pretty quick. i orderd mine of a us site and it took 5 days (primarily because it had to be shipped to my myus address first).

that extra 10% took me a bit by surprise it has to be said.
 
Spoke to a guy at Cell C, and apparently they can get any phone for a customer even if the phone isn't advertised in their booklets (As long as the phone is available in SA). Is there any truth to that?

I basically asked if and when they will be getting the HTC OneX. It wasn't in their booklets but the guy asked if it was avail in SA, and I said that MTN has had it for a month now, so the guy said yes, it is possible to get the phone (Almost like a special order/request). Not sure of the charges/pricing yet. Anyone also come across something like this?
 
howsit everyone

those who got my one x's in south africa, have you guys experienced the wifi issue? its said to be a hardware issue.
just want to find out if our s.a one x's are from the faulty batch?

For those of you that are not sure, try this:

If you are suffering from a really bad WIFI connection and think you may have this hardware fault, there is a simple test you can do.

The squeeze test

Gently squeeze the side back of your phone, between the camera lens and the volume buttons, if your WIFI signal strength improves only to drop back down when you stop squeezing then you have this seemingly common fault.

Unlikely. But if you come right, let us know.
