[Q] Best deal on a Vivid

I have been searching online and it appears the regular upgrade price is $199-00 from ATT and others with Costco being $10 cheaper and they include some accessories plus a favorable return policy.
Anyone know of any better deals out there?
I missed out on Fry's $60 ($90 with tax) deal.

The best deal I could find was $600 at AT&T.

I thought the upgrade price through att was $99.00. That is what I paid for it.

I got mine for $199.00 but two weeks later the black Friday price was $99.00. I got the $100.00 refund of course but I haven't seen it for $99.00 since then.

Good spot, well done. I find it unusual though that they charge you tax on the full retail amount bringing the total somewhere near $120. They also have a lousy 13 day return policy. Makes you wonder if the saving is really worth it.

Not worth it for me considering I would have to drive from Memphis to Duluth or Milton Georgia to partake of the offer.

Maybe it will help someone in the big white north or maybe the states has this promo to.
Best Buy HUP for $99+tax with a $25 gift card. I used the gift card on a case and invisableSHEILD screen protector.
I think it is a good deal.

This is in Canada so i don't know if its the same in the US. Just go into a Best Buy store and see if they got the promo. Plus they should be able to price match with others including carries plus 10% off.
HUP= Hardware Upgrade

It shows black, but its for the white. I just went to the Fry's in Duluth, GA and picked up 2. One for me and one for the wife. Way better than paying 200! Well worth the 16 hour round trip drive. All I have seen is the black model and never saw the white until yesterday, and I gotta say is, it is a sexy beast! Black looks good, but white looks better. Anyone in the Atlanta area goes to partake of the offer, they only have one more white left. The blacks are being sold at 130.

If you happen to work for AT&T they are offering a $199 discount for this phone if you are upgrading.

I picked mine up for $17 Canadian.
Hardware upgrade price was supposed to be either $99 or $149, I don't remember, but it rang up at $59.99 (at a Rogers store), and while I was signing the paperwork the woman told me 'Don't forget to log into your Rogers account to redeem the $50 mail-in rebate.' I thought it was too good to be true, but sure enough, when I got home, I logged in, and a few minutes later received an email stating that a $50 credit had been applied to my account.
So $10 for the phone, plus $7 (the taxes on $60).
Two days later, a friend picked one up and was charged $150. When she mentioned my deal, the guy at the store said 'Oh, that's not right. But there's nothing we can do about it now.'

Got mine for 99 and my upgrade was not but until march. I called cs and asked if icould get an early upgrade they talked to a supervisor and they offered it and the sgs 2 for 99. Never been happier.

I tried getting the local ATT store to price match and was again turned down. They told me to call retentions at ATT.
Got on the phone with them and they saw me right!!
Phone is on the way to me. I reckon I should see somewhat of a difference between it and my TP2!

"O2 will be the only UK operator"
Tesco, Argos, PCWorld, Currys and Google Play are not operators
So that's either a PR coup for O2, sloppy journalism by pocket lint or both. My money is on both.
I'm not buying for the first month anyway. I'm waiting to see what's wrong with the phone first.
Easily scratched, easily chipped, screen lift, tearing, battery drain ... catches fire :laugh:

I'm pretty certain that anti-competitive practices like that are illegal under EU law.
My guess is that it's a PR stunt but with a toothless watchdog the profits from sales would outweigh any fines, if they got one.
Who knows, O2 is getting mentioned on fora so it's working

I hope it is available in high street stores sim free. I plan on selling my HOX on Gumtree then buying a N4 from a shop that same day as I don't have the spare cash to buy the Nexus first

The N4 is 'free' on o2 on their 24 month/£36 a month (1GB data, unlimited calls, unlimited texts) contract...anyone care to work out what a similar sim-only deal is? I'd imagine it'll be a LOT cheaper to buy the phone out right and get a SIM-only contract...
EDIT: o2 Simplicity SIM-only deal: £20 a month (1GB data, unlimited calls, unlimited texts) x 24 months = £480 + £279 (16GB Nexus 4) = £759 for the 2 years...o2 give you phone for 'free for signing up to pay £864 over 2 years. That makes perfect sense, o2...

Carphone Warehouse are also offering the phone from 13 November - click
I reckon you must be bonkers to go for one of these deals. Surely anyone with sense will be buying outright and switching to a far more competitive SIM only deal.
I recall that when Google launched the Nexus One their intention was to shake up the mobile phone market by selling direct to the consumer - however it was priced far too high at circa £500. I ordered mine direct from Google and as part of the shipping tracking you could follow the flight from the USA - much better than the recent Nexus 7 debacle!!
I reckon with the low priced Nexus 4 a huge number of consumers will be buying unlocked phones.

Yeah, you'd be silly to tie yourself in to £30+ a month contract for 24 months when it's only £279 for the 16GB version sim-free.
I really think that price is amazing. With the more commercial S3 and iPhones being around £500 (with more memory and radios, I know) the price for the Nexus 4 is fantastic. Lack of LTE means nothing to me. The LTE plans EE have released are far too expensive. Something like £35 a month for a 500mb data plan. No thanks.

SIM-free phone and Giff-Gaff (runs on o2) SIM - £15/month unlimited data with decent minutes!! BOOM!!
http://giffgaff.com/goodybags

Now we play the waiting game. And then not buy from O2, since they have stupid prices. I'm also on Giffgaff, so £12 a month for me starting November for 250 minutes, which I always never use, plus unlimited data.
Woo, I NEEDS IT NOW... LET ME PREORDER!

Nexus 4: The Australian Thread

Hey Guys!
So the Nexus 4 has been released upon the masses with the first batch of the 16GB being sold out in 22 minutes and the 8GB being sold out a few hours later.
This thread will be a general area for Australian owners and potential owners to hang out, ask questions, get advice and get help quickly and within your time zone.
If anyone helps you or offers you advice don't forget to hit the ":good: Thanks" button in the bottom left corner of their post!
Please let me know if there's any important Australian specific information and I will put it here in the OP!

I'm buying one as soon as we are able to on the 13th. I purchased a nexus 7 on release day from the Google play store and received it 3 days after the funds were taken out of my bank account.
Generally they're pretty good with postage. I wouldn't trade my nexus 7 for anything!

Hey can any of you guys tell me how I can get the Nexus 4 in New Zealand from Australia? Don't have an Australian credit or debit card, btw.
Also what are the shipping costs and the price of the phone there? (16 GB)

Not sure about the price to ship to NZ but the shipping cost here for me when it was the N7 launch was $20 2 day shipping.

I'm from India, but my dad will be visiting Australia soon, and I can't wait for him to bring home a Nexus 4.
If a boxed piece is carried, would we have to pay customs/taxes? Any info on this anyone?

Buying one as soon as it hits the Play Store - my F5 key is unaware of the storm that's coming.
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

Same here, really hope that it is going to be released 12am on the 13th which means we will may - if they start shipping that day - have our orders start to be processed before the US even has the option to order hehe..
That is provided they do something similar to the Nexus 7 launch but in a more organised manner. Which I believe is the case.
(ie. Send large amounts of stock to each country that is selling it, wait for them all to get to respective countries, open orders, all send on the same day worldwide.)

I'm getting 16gb model a few days after launch (pay day)
Do they come from an Australian retailer or do our orders get shipped from the US?
My SGS2 has been good to me. My girlfriend will love it! I just can't pass up paying $399 outright for a phone that on paper, is probably the best on the market? You couldn't pay less than $400 for any other phone on our market could you?

Someone in one of the other threads said that this will lauch with a bumper case for the nexus 4

I'm totally buying on the 13th, it just annoys me that I have to pay $40 more than in Canada, considering I've only been here for 2 months... WHY COULDN'T THEY RELEASE IT WITH THE NEXUS 7?!

I'm looking at upgrading from my Galaxy S1 to the Nexus 4 when it comes out. I really don't mind the lack of LTE since I'm on TPG (who don't give access to LTE anyway). I'm pretty sure they do give access to Optus HSPA+ though, which should give me a speed bump from my S1 anyhow.
The only thing I am unsure about is using the Nexus 4 as my main music player, which is one of the main things I use my S1 for, apart from the usual phone and mapping stuff. Registering (through an American proxy) for Google Music and uploading all my music seems like the easiest method of doing this, but I am worried whether all the music streaming I would do would chew through my 1.5GB data allowance per month. Can anyone speak to their experience with music streaming with their monthly data allowance? Any better methods than Google Music in Australia? I've tried Spotify and found they didn't really have all the music I would like to listen to, and their app was still Gingerbread styled... ew.
Another (minor) problem is travelling overseas and having music. Data is too costly if travelling, so I suppose I would be stuck using my S1 while travelling, which I would probably keep as a backup phone anyhow.

I'm going to get this in store rather than on the Play Store since I can't convince my parents to shop online so I'm hoping that JB Hi-Fi will sell this by the end of the month (Does anyone know if it will be in stores next week at all?). Otherwise, can anyone name any stores in Melbourne or Sydney that has a possibility of selling this?

Price Drop on Nexus 7

Hey ya'll,
Just throwing out there, I was at WalMart (Ozark, Al) earlier tonight, and found that the Nexus 7 32GB was marked down to 199. I just bought mine the day before Thanksgiving! I checked the website, it is still listed at 249. I dunno if this is a price drop waiting to happen, or if it is in my area only. I asked the manager if I could have 50 bucks back and she said that she didn't know, told me to call in the morning, and worse case, box it back up, return it, and use the money to buy it at the lower price. (Which I don't want to do, but if I have to in order to get the better price, I will.)

Similar things are happening in the UK, as you can now get find the 32gb for around £180 at certain places.
Thats what's making me hold out until after Xmas for the 3g.

There wasn't a price drop on the 16, but it looks like the 16 has been sold out for a while, I've been looking for a while, mouth was watering, just jumped on it. I'll call them in the morning and ask if I can get that money back without having to take the device back, I still have my receipt that shows proof. All the night CSM told me was, with electronics, they might.

If you buy through Paypal at radio shack you can get 10$ gift cert for each 50 you spend then price match the nexus 7 32GB to a cheaper site and get more money back... that's what i did.. paid 249.99+cheap filler item+tax=265.xx got 5 10$ certs then used the Paypal pricematch promo (can find through googling) and matched it to a cheaper price i found online which was 229.99 1 or 2 weeks ago. so in the end i spent 265.xx but got back 50$ in certs + 20$ refund back to Paypal account. (pretty good deal if you need to buy anything from RS)

Are you sure the UPC wasn't for the 16GB version? It doesn't make sense that Google would drop the price twice in barely 2 months time (or increase the storage, however you want to put it).

I checked to make sure it wasn't for the 16 gb. The tag also said 32 gb

that would be really nice, since I want to buy one but for 200 or less.

I'm heading to Walmart as soon I get off work and check it out I need one for my car dash.

According to the representative at Gamestop, they are no longer making the 16 GB Nexus 7 and are phasing it out by getting rid of the remaining stock. So, my understanding is that Gamestop will only be selling the 32 GB wifi/data along with other retailers like Walmart when the 16 GB runs out.
I'm really thinking about returning the 16 GB one when I receive it next week and just pay the $50 to get the more recent 32 GB one.

Exactly,and besides I'm getting the 16 gb nexus 7 as a gift from my sister in the mainland. She bought it from Walmart for $200 and she'll give it to my parents to bring back to me here in Hawaii for my Christmas present. She said since it's a gift for the holidays Walmarts return policy is 15 days after the 24. I'll just probably return it for a refund and pay the xtra for a 32g from Walmart or Gamestop.
And I won't be getting the 3g Nexus because I already got a tiny hotspot with unlimited 4g with download speeds of 6 mbps and uploads of 1.5 mbps. It lasts for 7-8 hours on it's internal battery and costs me only $25 per month. Awesome! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr-J-M2aEIc

Can anyone else confirm the 16gb version being discontinued or the 199 price for the 32gb? It's still 249 at the Walmart here.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

I called the store, the price match to get my 50 would have to been done in 7 days. My store knocks prices down all the time because they don't know what they have. BTW the price is a clearance price. For example, they have Apple service plans (extended warranties) on clearance, a 2tb external Seagate go flex on clearance for 89. They managers there don't know crap about technology. If I get a chance I'll take a pic of the tag they have. But I'm at work till Monday morning

But we're talking about a gamestop employee.... They are probably thinking the 8gb, which is already gone.
And maybe one walmart in the world is confused or has something marked incorrectly. If you can get it for that price, great.
They aren't getting rid of the 16gb, not this soon at least.

is it me or is the UK pricing ludicrous, most offers once you add it up come to around the same as a Galaxy S4 if you want 500 / 1000 meg data, and this for a phone which is almost half the price.
We is getting ripped off
also - £419 at argos, £529 at littlewood - wtf !!

The general public will have little to no idea that you can buy the phone cheaply from the Play store. Because of that, the high street phone stores can afford to charge normal prices for the phone, as people will happily pay them.
For the rest of us though, we can get the handset nice and cheaply from the store, stick a cheap SIM in and be happy.

Yes, I've noticed that. A friend of mine almost went for purchasing it from Carphone Warehouse. Luckily he shared his intentions early and now he's waiting for his Google Play Store Nexus to arrive

initially carphone warehouse were selling the nexus 5 16GB for £295 with free delivery which works out at £15 cheaper than the play store, real rip off right?
Also £34 a month on a vodafone 4G contract with a free handset...that's £8 a month more than SIM only which means you're paying £192 for the handset...go figure.

No need to be an ass @bleets
I personally purchased my Nexus on the release day for £295. That was the initial price for about a week. Apparently it's doubled now.

I'm more concerned with how much we're having to pay on the play store compared to usa.
350 dollars = £218 not £339
