Saholic is a part of the Spice group. Its not a fake.. the service might not be great, but they wont take your money and run.. Dont worry about that..

I've never used it.. so have no idea about how good their service is..

But the shipping time changed from 4 days to 9 when they started showing the phone as being in stock.. pretty much means they have confirmation that they'll be getting the stock in 3-4 days and will ship then..

You'll probably be able to pick it up from stores before the 9 days saholic takes to ship if you are living in a metro or a big city...

I'm not ordering just yet.. but I'm delighted that the phone is finally here.

Saholic is gteat to shop with it has largest chain of mobile stores in delhi probably spice hotspots and is great for buying mobile. I have ordered about 8phones among which i ordered htc one x last year during its launch and got delivered in 7days as mentioned during order. Flipkart is considered best but i ordered dualshock3 remote 10days ago still havent recieved it. So u cant get guaranteed delivery withing time sometimes hiccups occur. So go ahead and buy and be assured your money is in safe hands.

HTC One from Saholic

Cud not wait anymore. Ordered the HTC one from Saholic. Date given for delivery is 27th, hopefully will get it a little early.

PS : If the item is'nt shipped yet and I cancel the order, i will get full refund right?. Asking this because If it comes out in stores I'll buy it in stores only.
[One (M7) General] Indian Rockstars:
Hey ...dont make a credit card payment....Take CASH ON DELIVERY option..its safe and you can cancel your order whenever you want without blocking your money...

How many units is India getting? Will it be limited stock and then oos for a long time or is there going to be enough for it not to go OOS once it finally becomes available?
[One (M7) General] Indian Rockstars:
yeah but if you cancel the order they take upto 1 month to refund or even later..Have personal experience .

HTC One will the stores in next 48 Hours as it seems so why wait for 9 days....I certainly can not..hehehe

Yes, it will be VERY LIMITED STOCK this time...grab one as soon as you get it...God knows when will India receive the next batch hehe
[One (M7) General] riyazquest:
Even I cannot wait, the wait is ridiculous, but am not sure about 20..22 May, apart from people on this forum not a single shop I know confirmed the date, they are saying 25 or later and I belong to a small city so cannot expect HTC one to come here on the 1st day of its release. Anyway if it comes on 20 or 22 as said ill cancel it and pray for a quicker refund and get my friend to buy it.

Hey guys, Been using an S2 till now and want to shift to the HTC One now.

One quick question, how do you handle a boot loop since you cannot remove the battery ?

And, Yes i will be rooting and going stock within a month if i can get this stunner !
[One (M7) General] japjit100:
white is more good looking
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
Yes

It's simple

Hold power button for 10 sec and capacitive button lights blinking hold for 3 sec more and your phone will reboot (some HTC device required 30 sec )

Wanna fastboot or recovery mode when rebooting hold volume down + power

Just happen to stumble upon this video. Don't know how many of you must have seen it before... But to me these seem serious issues.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ubr-Hzu894&feature=youtube_gdata_player

What do you previous One X or similar phone owners know about the service policies here in India? I mean if I have a hardware issue say 6 months from now... They can't service these phones... So do they replace them with new ones? How easy do they act? Or do they try to offer you a ****ing old piece of replacement?

I know how getting service can be the biggest pain in the ass here in India.

Have had nightmare experiences when Salora was doing HTC in the past. But haven't owned a HTC since they shifted to TVSE.

I didn't have service issues at all with 2 yrs of my S2 which did require changing the camera and then once the whole motherboard!
[One (M7) General] rkial:
Death grip is a silly problem.. not a real problem. Doesnt happen in any real life usage. It'll happen with any phone if you go out of way to cover the antenna.

Signal isnt an issue.. none of the reviewers (and I've seen dozens) have reported the problem.

the rest are bs.

Sense takes a huge steamy dump on Touchwiz

videos like that can be made for any phone.

Am worried about the service policies too. Folks with HTC devices can shed some light on this I guess. Have had display replacements for both my Note 2 and Xperia. Both were hassle free.
[One (M7) General] vari9:
I had a hardware issue, reciever stopped working, was like after 7months of my purchase, claimed it under warranty but it took them 7 days to bring the part (had told me 5)and still did not fix it, I had to go there ask him about my device then he fixed it, had to wait there for an hour.

They even dented my phone, to fix that they had to replace the whole screen,i didn't go for it as it would take them another week or so and I needed my phone, i still hav the job sheet with me wherein he has to replace the whole screen for me.
[One (M7) General] Groovy Bohemian:
Oh man! That's pretty awful. I really hope things have improved now.

[One (M7) General] vinaymieux:
This is the main problem with India! Samsung as a company is in India and hence has its own service centers and provides excellent service! HTC on the other hand has a 3rd party taking care of their service, who actually don't give a damn about the companies reputation with dissatisfied customers!

If you would have a problem with such a phone in the States or Europe, they just give you a brand new device and that's it.

Such sealed devices are not meant to be repaired! They're made for replacement in case of hardware issues!

Anyone got their phones replaced from htc? How was the experience?
[One (M7) General] vari9:
Htc is present in India as a company, it has very few service centers though, and hence resorts to 3rd party

Lot of Samsung service centres are actually not owned by Samsung but are franchise owned. But yes, entire training, equipment and backend system is handled by samsung and quality is maintained. Specially for high end phone owners who are treated very well.

There is no comparison in quality of service at least in Metro city like Mumbai. Samsung wins hands down between these two. Be it within warranty service or even paid service after warranty period is over.

[One (M7) General] nickporwal:
Its the HTC problem. Consumer is giving damn 40k for the phone. So its the responsibility of htc to make arrangements in India. I have used htc one x. Had to go 4times for replacements. I got sick of it and ultimately had to buy s3. Their service is very awful in delhi. For one time when i went there, they told me that service centre is closed permanently. Had to go to another place too far away.

This time also i thought of giving a chance to htc one. But because of so much delay i went for s4. And i am happy with that. No doubt that htc one is a very good phone but s4 is no slouch either.

Seriously i still recommend htc one to anyone who can wait but dnt rely on their after sales service.

Well there is no doubt that HTC is not best in the service department. but, my incredible S screen went blank. I gave it at a service center here in Gurgaon. I got irritated when they told me that they would give me back my phone in 15 days after fixing it. Didn't tell me the expenditure and issue. I received my phone after 15 days but, was very happy. They put a completely new front panel on my phone and also change my power button which was a bit stubborna and hard at that time. I was very satisfied with the service and can take the risk again...:p

Afaik, It was 99% delayed to April 15th, But they could be appear in grey market by Mar 15. Yet to confirm that from my retailer. I'm tending towards it, but I'm thinking about the warranty.

By the way, any one here ever bought a mobile from UK or US, I'm confused about the customs duty, I calculated it in online, total cost of Htc one from handtec costing 40k. Is that worth?

Hi All,

HTC ONE stock has been delayed, here is the mail that I have received from handtec :

Thank you for placing your pre-order with Handtec for the new HTC One.

We understand you want this brilliant device as soon as possible and we want to get it to you before anybody else!

However we have had some unfortunate news today and it seems there has been a widespread delay straight from HTC, this will affect the release of all HTC One devices resulting in delays for all retailers.

Handtec currently expect stock to arrive week commencing the 25th March 2013.

Rest assured Handtec have been first with all previous HTC launches and will be working with HTC to ensure this launch is no different.

We appreciate that some customers may wish to make changes to their orders and we recommend that all requests are forwarded to the below email address
