They seem to be rather ubiquitous in the UK as well, like every newsagent has them. Not going to buy anything though because it will probably stop working when I return to China.

That's probably true. google has something against other countries and getting all their services to work.

Didn't China ban all google services or something like that?

Yes they did quite recently. Even when it's not blocked, there's distribution rights issues as well. Say I were to buy some copyrighted ebooks or movies in the UK, or use Play Music, they're all unavailable in China. I did actually have a look at Google Books when I was in Moscow on Sunday, and sure enough everything was in Russian, no English ebooks available there.

I can actually get the UK or US Play store and browse apps and games when using a VPN on my PC with a browser. But that doesn't work on my phone itself I found. Which means music, ebooks, TV-shows, movies are unavailable from Google for my phone in China.
