Hi,
I'm making a trip to the US within a few weeks and I was hoping to buy a nexus one over there, because this will be cheaper rather than buying it in Europe.
Is it possible for a foreigner to buy a nexus one?
And I was wondering if an American Nexus (unlocked) will work in Europe?
I read somewhere that the US-version doesn't have multitouch. If so, is this fixable?
Thanks in advance
For your information
Google has stopped selling Nexus One and they're discontinued.
The only place you can look for is eBay or craiglist in which I don't think it would be any cheaper.
Besides, there is a rumor that Google is gonna sell Nexus Two by this Christmas
You can register as a developer and buy a brand new nexus one.
And it should work fine in Europe. Just check which frequency you wish to use for 3g in Europe because it may not be compatible.
They're out of stock. Unless you'll be in the states for a few months, u won't get it.... and by then the next Nexus phone will be out.
Try eBay or Craigslist. But I suggest you wait.

They are in stock right now.
Hmm, I hope they are still/again in stock when I arrive in the US (14th november).
Thanks for the answers anyway!
Do you need to be a developer to buy the nexus?
Isn't it possible to walk in a store and just buy the phone?

That was the problem with the initial release of the N1. They didn't sell via brick and mortar stores, only online. Because of this, the N1 sales suffered....so they say.
I saw it as a silver lining, meaning only a select few who know how to use this phone should have it lol...
Like others have said, try ebay or craigslist. Then have it shipped to a stateside residence that you will be at, maybe a relative or good friend. Just brainstorming....GL
+1 for Ebay...a friend just picked one up from there.

Why would you find a N1 in Paris while you can find it on the web ?
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.
Will be ordering the nexus 4 day one, 12 midnight on the 13th?or US time.? Still keeping my HTC one x

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.

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?
Anywhere we can find a silicon case for the nexus4? Google releasing any at launch? Can't find any info

I'm going to get the 16gb on the 13th also with accessories. Can't wait

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?

hey guys im in melbourne, i convinced my dad and hes said he will order it for me on the 13th november. But probably not 12 am maybe in the evening after he goes home from work. How long do u guys think it will take until the nexus 4 stock for australia runs out? I am paranoid that it will run out when I get it (13 november evening) its probably not possible but im just paranoid :/

Not sure but when I pre-ordered the Nexus 7 it said
Purchased from:
Google Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd.
8 Marina View, Asia Square 1 #30-01
Singapore

so I assume it will be sent from the same place meaning 2 to 5 days delivery on average
Question :
I am moving form nexus 5 to nexus 6 and my friend has offered me the 32GB version for $500 CAD including cases .
It is a one month device . What do you guys think ? Wait for nexus 5 2015 or is the above a good price ?
Google has a $150 off on a brand new Nexus6 and totals down to $677 CAD.
Please advise ..
Check swappa for going rate. Sounds OK to me though.
Just got a payout of £350 from my insurance company for my old nexus 6
I love the nexus 6 got loads of accessories for it bla bla
If you had a choice of phone would you get the nexus 6 again or move on?
If so what phones would be better, love my nexus 6 but want to make sure its still king of phablets
Cheers guys
Moto X Style or one plus two
what's the average waiting time for plus two?
Im going to get a chinese nexus 6p only £100 extra but no warranty but have bank insurance
