Re: Where did you buy your XA2 plus?

This is a damn hard phone to buy. Anyone have something recent that ships to Europe (Finland)? 64GB Dual Sim model is what I'm after.

Yes, something like that. But a link that still works. At least that one for me reported, upon trying to buy, that it's out of stock. Unless I misinterpreted the message somehow.

Back in November, I tried buying one from Sony France but they wouldn't process the order, emailling that they didn't ship to the UK.

My next port of call (ie. next cheapest at the time) was Amazon Italy who did ship. I'm a bit wary of who I buy from, and with it being a foreign language that I don't understand (I used the Chrome browser to translate the site), I made sure the seller was Amazon itself and not a marketplace seller.

So Amazon might be somewhere you can find them, though this site might be useful to you in finding a seller, but I urge you to exercise some caution to ensure you're buying from a legit seller:

BTW, please make sure you any device you buy can have it's bootloader be unlocked, as with the X, network locked devices (or those that had previously been locked) are no good to us.

I ordered mine from imobile_us at ebay.co.uk. It seems to ship from switzerland. Should arrive in about a week.

I just followed the link and it says the seller is on holiday until the 12th of February...

As long as bluetooth is not working correctly in Sailfish I will stick to my OnePlus X.

Please be aware that in link given @ Post#8 from previous buyer feedback, it would appear this Sony Xperia XA2 PLUS H4493 64Go 6Go RAM Dual Sim sourced from Hong Kong was without LTE20 (800Mhz) support.

And with this ends my quest for a Sony Xperia Plus H4493 64GB haha

Thank you so much @aspergerguy for this info.

Re: Where did you buy your XA2 plus?

I've got mine here on ebay. It had some Asian mutation of Android, but not a big issue when one aims to Sailfish it anyways.

Maybe I don't understand why LTE20 is important. To me it seems like most European countries has other bands that also H4493 support?
