Does anyone here know any good places besides Class? I know that any of those small shops might have the phone I'm looking for but Class and other branched-out stores tend to have the latest phones. I'm looking for the Nokia X6 32GB model, if anyone has seen one.

Khoury Cell; the only branch I know is in City Mall, bottom floor.
They're kind of overpricing though.
Private Cell, the branch I go to is in Dekwaneh - Slaf street.
Small shop but they can get you anything on demand.
I found their prices to be lower, sometimes by as much as 100$.
Haven't tried them yet.

Apparently, my friend was able to get a phone for $300 cheaper when he opted to buy it from a dealer in da7ye rather than from Class. Can anyone confirm that? Does Class overprice that much?

I can confirm that a certain shop in Da7ye will sell you phones cheaper than Class.
When I bought my phone, I got it a 100$ less. And while i was there, two dudes on scooters came to the shop with big black garbage bags that they threw (litterally threw) behind the counter.
The bags were full of the latest models of phones.
Anyways, I'm not home at the moment so i can't get you his phone number but the name of the shop is StarCommunications

Yes Class is an overpricer. I bought the Nexus One for $650 while they were selling it for $1000.

Alright. Thanks for the help, geeks. I guess a trip to Da7ye is in order during these next few days.

The phones in da7ye are duty-free

As long as there is a thread about mobile phones so i will ask here about Sony Ericsson's Xperia X10 if it is available, unlocked and price of course.

How about iPhone 4 prices here in Lebanon?
What about warranty? Is it safe to buy one from here?
I'm actually looking for one right now, Class has it for 950$.
Would like some intel on that please.

Thanks a lot. But is it unlocked? i think so because i found the same price range for the phone.

@all
I'm not sure if it's the number of the same shop I went to. I got the number from a google search.
Anyways here are the results I got.
Star Communications 01-55 55 45
Xperia X10: Factory unlocked: 385$
Iphone4: 16Gb-> 840$
Iphone4: 32-> 970$
oops forgot to ask about the Nokia X6 32GB, sorry tako.

Kareem: Do NOT buy the Xperia X10. Always delayed updates, plus new Xperia phone will be released (Playstation phone codenamed Zeus).

@EddieEC: We have discussed the PS phone(on another thread) and if i want to buy a phone maybe next year which is enough time for the PS phone to be released if not any leaks about it.
P.S:Dam i have a PS3 i should be searching for more news about PS phone.
By the way i think the delays are due for the development team of Sony Ericsson taking time to lets say port it to the X10.
EddieEC
Actually the Playstation APP is getting ready to be released in Europe SOON. I'd wait if I were you, it seems promising, especially some UNREAL ENGINE games are ready to be released for it as soon as it is available.
kareem_nasser
I think it will run on OS Android Version 3.0.
EddieEC
You mean Android Honeycomb? Could be, but all depends on release date.
