ha55ha Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'm going back home on the 14th December for Xmas. Do you think I'll be able to get it in Thailand first, or will I have to wait until I get back to the UK? Is their a date to pre-order yet?

ha55ha Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Hows the best way to pre-order one when they are released. Can it be done online or is it best heading into a True store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrTuner Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Tukcom had a sign telling you can go and fondle a sample there. I'm not kidding, the ad is at the entrance of the nearby parking place. All that was missing was the price of barfine&ST. Sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for today the 22nd, the True Staff in Chiang Mai believes it will be "months" before the iPhone 5 is sold here officially. No way it'll take that long of course, but they seem genuinely unaware of any imminent release date... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muratremix Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Still no updates on true/dtac/ais websites. Maybe after Apple announcement today in U.S timezone (which is probably tonight or tomorrow in Thailand) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polanskiman Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 12th December Thailand release date. http://senseiphone.c...dwide-09124718/ Not sure where you saw that day 12 in December would be the launch date. Other than December, Apple hasn't given any specific day. Usually iPhone launch in Thailand falls on a Friday, therefore it should either be the 7th, 14th, 21st or 28th at worst. Early or mi-month is more likely though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redsox44, you need to fire your inside sources December 12th release date would really suck Yea, I asked today and was told there simply isn't a large enough inventory to bring it out first week of November. It now seems December may also be a streach. I just got a Samsung so I really don't care. Why buy a device that's iffy at best. When it gets here it will be old. I will say that the Samsung S3 Mini is really a nice bit of kit and will kill anything Apple puts out. Son got it for me and when I brought it to A I S to get it fired up they really flipped over it.

muratremix Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I didn't complete the form on truemove-h because I can't proceed with existing plan. If you choose to buy without package plan discount, it was 24.400 or 24.500 baht for 16 gigs which is 1500 baht or so expensive than applestore pricing. And now I can't pre-book online because all reserved slots are full or something. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now I can't pre-book online because all reserved slots are full or something. Pathetic. Like I said before limited supply. I am TRUELY surprised True has decided to release their extreamly limited supply. Other carriers most likely are in the same boat, so I'm told, but with cash flow all but at a stand stil, folks waiting for the new phone, I guess at the last minute True with Apple's permission decided to release the few hundred thay have in stock. It will be late December before demand will ease or so I'm told. I did hear that the Samsung 3 S Mini in large quanties will go on sale here in one or two weeks. I think this is the reason Apple gave the go ahead to sucker folks into ordering and waiting for their iPhone 5. Only problem is carriers are scared of consumer back lash if they have to wait weeks after dropping down 5000 or closer to 6000 Baht deposits and not seeing delivery. I have the Mini thanks to my son who carried one in from Europe and it makes the new iPhone look sad indeed. And it's a lot cheaper! An A I S rep all but demanded that I sell it to her when I got a SIM for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muratremix Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 True-H Online Pre-order is working again. However, I wasn't aware of that I had to pay 5350 baht deposit online. Although I could paid it, enforcing something like that without warning or explaining in the beginning is sick. I decided to not to go with it. I'll try my chance at stores on 2/3 november. Or perhaps I wait to buy from iStudio once they get ahold of stock. Atleast you can get VAT tax refund form filled in iStudios unlike True-Ais shops.
