N4 Now Available on T-Mobile Site

I just received an email from T-Mobile and the Nexus 4 is available on the T-Mobile site. I find this funny because I NEVER received any email from Google about the N4 product release. Huuummmm????

Bought mine for $199.00 on an upgrade which I was going to do anyways, but at least it's in my hands and I am loving it so far. Sold my GNEX for 200 an hour after I bought the N4 , so my out of pocket expense was zero dollars, not bad at all.

Only in America. It's not in my country! (yes we have T-Mobile too)

$199, and still Unlocked? Or are you stuck with using the Device for T-mobile only?
(since you signed a new 2yr contract, I'm aware you are stuck with T-mobile as a carrier.. Just curious if the phone is unlocked or not.)

I want to buy the off-contract do you guys now where can i buy near brooklyn and Lawrence!?

Not a big deal for me, I hate AT&T and I have to have a GSM phone because I travel overseas for my business and CDMA is not and option for me. I still find T-mobile the best bang for the buck, hands down. I have never had any issues with customer service and the coverage and network speeds are fine for my everyday needs. So far the N4 upgrade was best 200 dollars I have spent, and I sold my GNEX for 200 an hour after I bought the N4 so my out of pocket expense was zero, not bad.

Did they mention the 20 payments of $15 you'll be making to recover their loss on the phone and bringing your total to $499?

Estimated ETA for Play Store or T-Mobile?

Is there any estimated or leaked dates for when the X will be showing up for T-Mobile or the Play store? Or what the differences in software/price may be?

No one knows for sure yet.
Probably around the same time the carriers start selling it, so probably end of this month, early September.
As for price, again no one knows, one would hope it's around N4 prices.

If the Moto X is about equal to the N4's price, I would order it. If it's more than $500 full retail price, I would wait and buy it from swappa.com

All black and white will be available for Tmo on Aug 23. $199 on contract, but off contract pricing still unknown. Motomaker for Tmo in November.
Play store version sometime before the end of the year. No clear details on timing or pricing, except that it could be around $350-$400 range.

my intention is to order a custom designed at full price. what and see what happens when a GPE/Dev Edition comes out...

I'm somehow hoping the GPE edition is like N4 pricing, I'll gladly get it if it is, otherwise, Nexus 5 it is.

Paying retail price

I tried to get the 649 retail at best buy but got denied because the Corporate store doesn't allow you to buy full price on Launch Days?
I had to pay the 750 best buy price. Can anyone else confirm this?

There is nothing wrong with that. I did. There aren't really many options, are there? If I bought the international variant then I'd get no LTE.

I did mine on the next plan... all it is is a monthly payment plan to pay the full retail price of the phone, $650... so it's $32.50/month for the plan that lets you upgrade every year ($32.50/month x 18 months = $650). when you want to upgrade in a year (or 18 months and the phone would be paid in full), you either trade the phone in for the next one or just pay off the remaining balance ($260) and then sell the old one online and get the new phone on the NEXT plan

I don't know much as the next program. I don't like it from what I've read

What is your bill if you don't mind me asking. Mine is $79 plus the 32 would be like $113-114. I think I might wait till it gets a little older and the next price would be a little cheaper than I'll get one.

well, I haven't received a bill yet that has the NEXT upgrade on it... so, my bill is $125 now, will be ~$158.00 with my SGS 5 on it.
$100 -> 10GB data bucket (shared between my wife and I)
$15 -> wife's line cost (for service)
$15 -> my line cost (for service)
$32.50 -> SGS 5
23% off national account discount
taxes
=$158 ish with the NEXT plan added
if you have a 10GB or higher mobile share plan, your lines are just $15/each if you are 1) financing a phone through NEXT; OR 2)pay for the phone upfront

If you're on the newer Mobile Share plans (especially 10GB+) it will save you money over a new two year contract. You do see a little bit of a higher monthly bill, but you save quite a bit over time. Make sure to get AT&T Insurance or Squaretrade, though. And the 20 month Next is better than the 26 month Next.

If your going to spend $600+ you better invest that into a international version that supports AT&T LTE bands. You won't benefit anything from the AT&T version far as root, roms, etc since our bootloader is "locked"
Also AT&T Next is great if your into staying up to date with the latest devices like most of us here. Like the users said above but with more detail you can choose to lease/finance the device for either 12 months or 18 months. You pay $0 deposit down and depending on the terms of the lease/finance you can either pay $22 or $32 a month.
Your plan and everything decides on how much data you need. i have the 20GB plan with 6 lines. my bill is around $200-$250 a month. 3 of those lines are on the Next program

That's new to me. Wasn't sure the international version could support ATT

meh.. same difference for me.. I'll likely pay it in full in a few months anyways when the iPhone 6 comes out and get that too... in the end, I pay full price for the phone regardless.

The "Next" plan is a ripoff unless you're the type who is scared to sell a phone on Craigslist. An absolute ripoff.

exactly what i have, i coupled my $25 phone payment plan (18 month instead of your 12 month) with the new 2GB data value plan

What if you get it on contract. Its $199 down payment and $320 as ETF.
Total $520.
Is there any catch? You can cancel the contract after 1 month, pay the ETF and keep the phone??

Yup, that's the same thing I did. My contract would have ended this September, but my previous phone (iPhone 5) was one drop away from being completely broken. Because of that, I said screw it, bit the bullet and did the early upgrade to the 18 month Next plan with the 2GB mobile share plan. I would have much rather the traditional 2-year contract plan, but oh well...no way my phone would have survived another 6 or so months.

Yeah, the phone is yours if you choose to go down that path. Personally, I try my best to avoid the ETF, simply out of principle.

This is SO SO SO true! Basically with next you are still paying around $650 in 2 years for a new phone BUT you don't get to keep it.

You can keep the phone on the Next plan. You don't have to trade it in if you don't want to. The phone is still yours no matter what...you just have to pay it off either way.

If i was gonna pay full retail I'd have gotten the Tmo S5 which apparently has an Unlocked BL, it is compatible with ATT LTE. Which is why I asked why the OP paid so much for the ATT version which is locked down as tight as fort knox...Still hoping a root exploit is found for ATT at the very least, if not not a big deal to me as its going to my GF who has no use for custom rom/kernels.

N6 on contract

My two-year contract on Verizon is ready for a renewal. It is either the Note 4 or the Nexus 6. Will Verizon offer this on contract or will it be something you buy online for the $650 only?

It should be offered on a 2 year contract if you want.

I was under the impression they wouldn't go over $35, the reasoj there is a down payment on the s8+

The official reason why they put a down payment on the S8+ was that it was an "upgraded version of the S8, like the iPhones with more memory". That's straight from their Twitter account. The real reason, of course, is that they lose money on JOD, and are trying to get people to move off of it or at least make up some of their loss with up-front costs.
I am very curious what their excuse will be this time, or if they will just let it slide like they did the Note 7. I probably will be willing to put some money on this phone, especially if they bundle some nice stuff with the pre-order.

They only finance 700 for 24 months. That's why the s8 was 30 and s8+ 130. If the note 8 is 1000 you need 300 plus tax. I just ended my original jump over this. It's there way of getting us away from high end devices. Jump is no longer worth it if you get the biggest best phones. I'll buy the note 8 from shop Samsung. Done financing phones with the mobile

In my area of Chicago, I find that T-Mobile works much better then Verizon. I would also not compare T-Mobile to Sprint! I think their customer service has always been good for me and with Jump On Demand I can switch out my phone a lot more then other carriers. The prices are great and their coverage is pretty close to Verizon.
