4X HD price dropped by US$38 exactly 1 month after launch here to coincide with the price drop of Moto What kind of marketing strategy is this? First time I ever bought a LG smartphone and I feel frustrated though I am happy with my 4X.
What about other countries? Is there a price drop? The 4X is selling at approximately US$602 here from yesterday.
It's 438e here, about 538 dollar. Dropped here a bit as well few days ago
Lg 4x hd p880
Portugal >>>>> LG Maximo 4X HD >>>>>650€
Poland >>>>> LG Swift 4X HD >>>>>>>1 999 zł (490€)
Mine cost me 2 299 zł, I'm living in Poland, price dropped too but, here things are a little weird... my other phone, LG GC900 cost me in 2010
1700 zł, 3 months later the price was 1800zł...
Comparing both phones the P880 is not much more expensive :laugh:
price in Denmark:
3299,- DKR or €442 or $545
Price in Poland, min. 415eur

I'm wondering where you saw the LG Swift 4X HD at that price in Poland.
In physic stores the cheapest I found was in Euro-AGD, where I bought mine. On the Internet the cheapest I found was in CENEO.pl and the lowest price its 1894,39 zł, converting, its 464.31€ (themoneyconverter.com).
You have a secret dealer or you miss the conversion?
I bought my 4X in RTV EURO AGD too, 1999zł, that lowest price is from allegro.pl
Today it's on sale for 389€ in Germany. I bought mine for 479€ only 4 weeks ago.
Where do you see that price dude? Amazon still sells it for 439

I see you're from Belgium about my area. The price you quote is probably CoolBlue.
Which is AFIAK the only "store" whom actually has it. Fnac groenplaats, the phone house (wijnegem shopping center), Allo Telecom Nationalestraat don't have it. Fnac only had the Prada phone though.
Perhaps we could meet and share experiences. I´m too interested in buying one. Though I just wait a bit because I expect the price to come down more when the 4X HD's successor will be revealed in September.
Then it'll be either the 4X or the new kid on the block (if it also can record calls which I absolutely require).
If interested Pm me.
Dropped about $20 in Australia. Waiting for it to drop a bit more. I may snap one for myself
That's sucks. I bought mine three weeks ago for 480 euros.
@Winudert: Yeah that sucks indeed. I've seen them advertised on Amazon.de for 435 euro's. Expect the price to fall down evenb more when (the few) shops starts ditching them in preparation for new stock (either iPhone 5, the win 8 Nokia's or the 4x HD's sucessor).
The weird thing is that I first had my interest on the Nokia 808 pureview (which I presumed would fall in price quickly after release). That device kept it's high price though. While I've seen HTC One X for 519 euro (now back up to 529 euro).
Anyway. The 4X HD seems atm the best price for a big-screen, quad-core android device. A pity that there still are a few niggles that LG should have been fixed from the O2X like the missing notification light.
I understand that there are 3rd party solutions to fix this. But you need to root your phone first. If LG put something similar in the official firmware then we wouldn't need to hack our phones for such a trivial thing. Not to mention that I can't imagine a little LED costing so much.
Was rumoured to be release within 6 weeks of Early September... which is next week (or so).
Don't be so impatient young padawan!

I honestly don't know why people want a 3G Nexus 7.
It'll most likely be connected to a carrier and I don't get why people want to keep doing that to themselves.
I think they should make one, but off-contract only because it is cheap as it is.

Well if it doesn't get released before the ipad mini event next week then it will be competing against the tablet market leader who may well have very competitive pricing.

I'm hoping for a release before x-mas, but I don't think it will matter that much who releases first. Apple has a strong customer base, and they'll buy the iPad Mini no matter what. I don't think the N7 really is competing against Apple, it's more against the likes of Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 and 7.7 and other similar devices. The Apple products are in a different league.

It seems there may be two versions released next week (rumor), one 32 GB WiFi only @ $249 and a 32 GB 3G @ an unknown price...my guess would be $299
So to sum it up:
16GB WiFi @ $199
32 GB WiFi @ $249
32 GB 3G @ $299
I'm just guessing....

Again don't assume that commercial practices are the same everywhere. These strong contracts with carriers for 3G/4G are mainly USA & UK things. I live in Asia and most people only use prepaid short contracts, a week, or a month. If the result is not good or another carrier now propose a better price we just shift to this new carrier. Simple & easy

Anything below £280 will be ok...the Galaxy 7 is the only competion in that pricerange and the screen resolution is too low on that device, so if the N7 can match that price they'll come out on top. The Galaxy 7.7 is the next in line, but it cost almost twice as much for some reason...

Most teardown BOMs put the comms chip anywhere between $5 and $13 so under £250 is doable for a 3G N7

Who cares about an ipod touch? In my opinion it's completely irrelevant....
If you think an iPod and a Nexus tablet is comparable and you're on the fence and the price is the only factor that will tip you to one or the other side...well...then I suggest you get the iPod...I'm sure you'll be happy...

Poor old Apple users. Once they have been infected they can't help themselves.
Every time any tech product is mentioned they have to mention Apple.
It would be funny if it wasn't so tragically sad.
You may or may not have heard about this but if you live in a country where purchasing devices from google play isn't available(which is like 98% of the countries),you will have to pay a whopping 549 euros for the 16gb nexus 4(that's the pricing in Austria,dunno about the rest of the world but it will most likely be the same).I will actually have to pay more than double the original price of a phone that got 16gb non expandable storage.And if I bought it online,I will have to sacrifice local warranty.It just looks like google is doing their best to force me not to get their nexus devices.There's just a big hype about how cheap the nexus 4 is with cutting-edge hardware ignoring the fact that only people living in certain countries can get it for that price.Why can't google be fair ? Guess I might end up getting Gnote 2,at least it got a micro SD slot.
Wow. This sucks. Nice find! For that price, I'd definitely go for a Note II!

Maybe see if someone from another country can buy it from the play store and have them mail it to you? Providing the shipping cost is realistic?
I'll get one from Germany too.
If anyone wants to order for me send me a PM.
I am screwed, since I live in the Netherlands. No Playstore here. Hopefully the online shops will sell against Playstore prices, or less Sucks I can't order from European Playstores btw, so much for European 'shop integration'.

I completely agree, I live in Chile and the carriers here are just thieves, the galaxy nexus retails here for around 750 USD contract free.
Gladly my brother is going to USA on december and he might get one N4 for me there at a normal price.
Does anyone knows if you can buy a nexus product online? Becouse whenever I try to go to the website says its restricted to my country, I dont know if its possible to shop online outside the US. I wouldnt care not having warranty if I pay 300 box.

I think that Google is selling the product below the MSRP because they expect people to post some of those saved euros into producst on the store.

Ok, sorry for my bad post but I was really thrilled about a 'national topic'. Anyhow I must say that the price of Nexus 5 ( or Nexus 4 2013) will be much higher in Romania, around 2500 ron for the 16 gb version and 2900 ron for the 32 gb version.

Sad but thrue, in our country first price is double. When i purchase nexus 4 i expected to lower the price.
After a couple of months, the price will be reduced, for sure. see how N4 or n7 prices evolved during the following months after the launch. I took the second N4 in August at 1600ron (~350e). The same price at which I took the first one in March from Germany's Playstore.
We cannot compare the price in US with Europe, anyway. nobody can.

2500RON is to high.LG G2 is 2400RON on eMag.ro.A nexus device is cheaper.My phone now is an LG Optimus Hub with cracked screen.The touch still works.Nexus 5 will be a big jump for me
LG G2 is NOW 509euros on orange.ro.,standard price. that means around 2200ron.
Nexus 4 was 2200 ron when was first introduced at emag, and then the price was reduced slowly...to 19,18 and 1699ron. Now, its 1549, which is still very good for the phone. I am selling my N4 as we speak.
i know this because i followed closely the price. both for N4 and N7 2012 & 2013. But if you dont believe me, i can search and post the links from other forum, softpedia where the discussion started at the launch of N4.
i can bet that the N5 price will be ~2200 at launch and after January will decrease below 2000 ron.

I purchase my Nexus 4 two weeks ago from evomag.ro, price 1389 RON. Now is around 1600 RON there.
probably it was some kind of sale. If you have said it, i would have sold it mine for as low as 1200 ron, still in box 2y warranty.
So, it has been released! Now we have to wait until some reseller brings it. However, I assume it will be pricey (2000 RON for 16GB version, which IMO is a rip off).

@Octavius69 that's the sad truth. In all the poor/third world countries everything is expensive. Even so, this doesn't seem to stop people buying overpriced things. On the other hand I can understand that the price displayed on Google Play is subsidized by Google, hence the other retailers will have a higher price tag. And this last part applies everywhere. What's frustrating is that Google is not stepping in and release it's devices on more countries.
Going back OT: The 16GB version is available at PC "Garbage" as well (~2100 RON). Let's see if other major reseller will join. I am curious to see the price for the 32GB version.
EDIT: Same device on cel.ro for 2000RON, but still no news about the other one.
I would wait if I knew they will brig the rumored one, which has bigger battery or the 32Gb but I'm pretty sure they will not import it in the next weeks, not in a decent price range at least. Therefore I prefer to buy it now, I was waiting for too long this almost perfect phone.
Stefan, they will bring for sure the 32GB version in the coming weeks. However, please note that the capacity is the same, 2300mA, on both versions (16/32GB). There is no 32GB version with a 3000mA battery. That was pure speculation (just a rumor).
I just purchased mine 16Gb from evoMag at almost 2000Ron which for the 5th day after release date is a decent price. Good luck to finding yours.

yes, I am sure it won't go as high as G2, since the G2 price is on 6.5M I am sure the N5 will be in 5-6M range if not the same price as N4 when first released here back in january.
Not sure which version will be released here tho, but let's hope it will be the 32GB version.

well let's hope it stays that way to get buyers attention.. a phone with Snapdragon 800 for under $600 is considered a steal even in indonesian standard..
heck, even my LG G2 (which is basically a N5 with a bigger battery, an IR Port, and 13 megapixel camera) is about $100 cheaper than the Z1.. and a whole $200 cheaper than the Note 3..
The "luxury item tax" sucks in this country. (pajak barang mewah in Indonesian)
If LG decides to bring it here, I think it'll be priced at IDR 5,499,000 and IDR 5,999,000 for the 16GB / 32GB variant respectively. Not sure when, but since there's this Indocomtech event going on right now and they are advertising the G2 a lot, I think we'll have to wait until the craze about G2 dies down before they bring it to Indonesia. I mean why would they bring a cheaper phone when they have G2 right?
I have a credit card but I'm not sure how I feel about ordering online via Play Store / Amazon / eBay. If there's a holdup at the airport that would suck. I may even have to end up paying more money just to get that phone "released" from the custody of stupidly retarded corrupted people.
I have a few friends in the US that travels back and forth though, so I'm actually thinking of asking them to get one for me.
Anyone knows if the it can be used in Indonesia though? I'm kind of afraid there's a difference in network bands.
Anyway, with all that said, maybe we can all try to rush LG by perhaps, mentioning the existance of Nexus 5 via Twitter (@lgmobileid) or their Facebook fan page
Perhaps if they see there are dozens of people wanting this phone badly they'll speed up the release.
Oh well, here I am hoping and crossing my fingers as each day goes by :fingers-crossed:

I am good as long as the price is not cross 6M mark.
No it's not luxury item tax, it still under consideration by government, not yet become a policy. and the pricing in non-play store country is almost the same because it sells by LG and warranty is goes to LG not Google.
I am not sure but G2 has better camera and more mainstream device here, who cares about Nexus here lol
I am not yet seeing any person using N4 here btw in Jogja.
I am pretty sure it is usable here, it's all the same except the cdma variant and LTE bands which is still not available yet here.
It's like nexus 4 case, a lot of people including me force them to release it quickly or at least give us the date but they still quiet until it's released back in January, I guess it will be the same in this case.
so we still has 2 months left to wonder about the price and release date, and there is still hope for dollar to get weak, and back to 10k.

how was the price of nexus 4 back then when it was released on indonesia?
I hope the price can be below 5m, it is retarded if it goes up to 6m what is that stupid tax someone said about? I mean I saw a lenovo k900 advertisement on kompas today priced at 4m, NOT FAR from ebay or another online price I saw from googling, thus if lenovo phone price can be reasonably on par with international 'standard', why can't nexus 5???
if the ridiculous inflated price do happen, what is the cause? don't tell me that phones taxes are somehow tied with the phones' specs, that is utterly retarded beyond idiocy
now anoyher matter is availability, will normal phone shops here have nexus 5? how about the services and warranty, who is going to cover for them?
also can indonesian buy nexus 5 directly from google?
I heard from singapore forum, we can order N5 from australia's google playstore and then get it ship to Indonesia.
I got friend that can buy me the phone and when she comes back, I can have my N5. But can it really work with our carriers?

how was the price of nexus 4 back then when it was released on indonesia?
I hope the price can be below 5m, it is retarded if it goes up to 6m what is that stupid tax someone said about? I mean I saw a lenovo k900 advertisement on kompas today priced at 4m, NOT FAR from ebay or another online price I saw from googling, thus if lenovo phone price can be reasonably on par with international 'standard', why can't nexus 5???
if the ridiculous inflated price do happen, what is the cause? don't tell me that phones taxes are somehow tied with the phones' specs, that is utterly retarded beyond idiocy
now anoyher matter is availability, will normal phone shops here have nexus 5? how about the services and warranty, who is going to cover for them?

its price is 5.5M, I am on of the first buyer in Jogja lol
Nexus on play store available country is subsidized by google, and in non-play store country get it from LG instead Google.
No, it's not the tax, it's nothing to do with tax.
Yes it will be available here, only the release date is matters here, I bought mine from Erafone while LG authorized centre doesn't even have it yet.

lol wut, 5.5m for nexus 4? why oh why the ridiculous over inflated price, is it because of LG's ego so people will buy their phones instead?
4.5m is gonna be what I call a fair price, looks like it's just a wishful thinking

I don't know maybe it's the actual price before subsidized.
but not too long after initial release, about 3-4months i guess they cut the price to 4.999.000.
just wait couple months if you want more affordable price
I can't wait btw, two months is long enough for me. lol

sigh, unfortunately I can't wait, my current phone is dying, actually originally I've been waiting for these new high end phablets especially the htc one max but htc dropped their balls really really harf with such underwhelming specs, not to mention htc phones are as expensive as samsung here I think, one of the reason I was hoping for htc because of their sense, been a long time admirer of it since touchflo days with winmo but surprisingly never owned an htc device lol... just when I finally about to get one they came up with rubbish phone lol.
don't like the bloatware infested samsung phones as well as their annualy rising apple like insanely high prices
lg g2 is quite nice but I don't like their ui too, as well as their less than average software updates support
then there is sony phones, for some time I liked sony ericsson very much on the days of P800-900 as well as the very first xperia phone but their current fetish with water proof phones just put me off, report says they have terrible sounds as well as underwhelming display, I don't like the ui either lol
so in a way, nexus 5 is my last hope for a 2013 flagship phone, either this or I'll wait to see the next htc flagship which is probably still 6+ months away unfortunately
overall it's sucks to be in this position lol

it is normal for modern smartphone, only the downside for me is development, development on N4 is almost reach its max, and everything will be steady, no more surprise whatsoever.
I tried my friend's S4, it's hot when playing game, not N4 hot but it is plastic while n4 is glass.
try to undervolt the cpu it will be much cooler, never had any heat issue unless the phone is constantly searching for signal cause i am in poor coverage area which is pretty normal on any phone.
