Re: And now for something not entirely different

 

Thanks Vic, the UK store would be fine. Thanks for your help! Ideally something with a 5 inch screen, otherwise the 4.5 would do. Thanks!

I'll ping our commercial department to know if it's possible putting any compatible device available in our online store or outlet. I can't ensure success but I'll try ;)

If I find a way to do so, the UK online store would fit your needs?.

Cheers,

Happy to buy, but I don't speak German, and can't work out if they ship internationally or not. Seems Germany only. Are there any phones I can buy fro. BQ's main site and flash Ubuntu on?

How did you get a new device? My phone has packed it in after a recent
trip to Borneo - can't find a bq for sale anywhere! Thoughts?

Thanks to the amazing service provided by BQ and also the users of this list I found myself with a replacement for my broken phone and a discount code for the BQ store. I opted to buy a phone to replace that unbearable android monstrosity my partner has. Knowing she would never get along with
Ubuntu as it's different to what she's used to I opted for the Android
model and thought nothing of it as it's the same phone.

I was mildly surprised by what turned up in the post. There is no doubt it is the same phone as mine yet it is quite different. The first thing I noted is that the little pin for removing the sim cards only has one spike on it, the one for opening the SD card slot is missing. So I looked at the
SD slot and was greeted by blank plastic, no cover there at all! 2 sim
slots just the same but the power button is in the wrong place. Where the power button should be is what looks like another sim slot, but this time for housing the SD card. The notification light is in the wrong place and
blinks in an entirely different manner to mine.

All in all it kind of felt like returning home to find someone had
rearranged all the furniture! It will be very interesting to see how this
new handset compares to mine from a usability standpoint (crashing,
hanging, overall speed, etc).
