Nexus 4 Sold Out.

[Trem]

Apparently the Nexus 4 sold out in less than half an hour, so pleased I have waited so long for this phone only to not have a chance to get it on the release date

It was designed to sell out. Makes nice news headlines for them and makes the phone feel more desirable.

Like when demand for concert tickets crashes servers. It's easy to cater for that demand, but why bother when it gets you in the news?

 

[soze]

It is not impossible to believe demand would be low the advertising for Nexus handsets is non existent and previous phones have not been record breakers.

But the price point on this makes it impossible to ignore.

Tempting, I got confused with a post about Comet selling Nexus for £179 but it was the nexus 7! argh!

 

[Lamp]

Its had some fairly positive reviews

 

[dysfunction]

Don't even think about it Lamp. It's not for you that phone!

 

[Tilda]

For the price it seems insanely good.

The phone is more powerful than a Samsung galaxy S3. Only thing that let's it down is no sd card slot. Apart from that a amazing phone for a amazing price.

 

[MYstIC G]

Doesn't the S3 have a ton of features that this doesn't thought like the wireless charging, NFC, etc?

 

[Trem]

The nexus 4 has wireless charging.

Crazy what these are selling for on Ebay, I want one but I will fucking well wait, what retards pay over double for something like this?

 

[Nate]

moneyed retards Trem. Moneyed ones.

 

[Tilda]

Not going to pay crazy prices, but the Next4 looks a dead cert as my next phone. Lovely design and such a good price.
Nice way of getting wireless charging started too I think.

The 16gb version is now back in stock.....well......it isn't really, you can order it but it has a 4-5 week delivery time.

Bollocks to Google, I have ordered a Windows phone, fucking sick of waiting now. HTC 8X is my phone of choice.

 

[Ch3tan]

Getting a 16gb nexus 4 on an upgrade from 3 in a few days, will be keeping my s3.

Anyone still after one fancy buying it off me?

How much? As in will you follow the Google pricing or the retailer pricing, as they are about £200 different

 

[Ch3tan]

Really?? I'll have to look into that first then I suppose!

Google still don't have any inventory though do they?

 

[Tilda]

Google are getting it back in stock, but retailers who aren't google are still selling even sim free for over £100 more

 

[Poag]

Really?? I'll have to look into that first then I suppose!

Google is £279, retailers between £350 and £440. Which is a real gouge.

I'm just waiting for more google stock, no point paying over the odds!

 

[Ch3tan]

Got this today, the vanilla interface is so slick, the phone is really well designed and feels heavy. Really nice, but I really value the expandable memory on the s3.
