Just hours after Google Inc(NASDAQ:GOOG) Nexus 4 UK sales were reopened, the 8GB
iteration of the Android 4.2 handset has once again sold out. Google has
confirmed. Buyers can still pick up the somewhat more expensive 16GB model.
However, although the store is saying that this will not be shipped for five to
six weeks.
It is unclear when Google
will be receiving its next batch of Nexus 4 handsets, and it has yet to respond
to our request for comment.
With stocks depleted from
the Google Play Store, those looking to snap up the Google Nexus 4 ahead of the
festive period will now be forced to turn their efforts to the more costly
networks and third party retailers. With O2’s month long period of exclusivity
on the device expiring on December 13, Three and Carphone Warehouse have
already revealed their Google Nexus 4 deals, neither of which can compete with
the Google Play Store’s £239 and £279 SIM-free Google Nexus 4 prices for the
8GB and 16GB models respectively.
Buyers certainly get a lot
for their money, as the handset features a 4.7 inch HD IPS display, a quad-core
Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and the latest version of Google's mobile
operating system, Android Jelly Bean 4.2.
There is also an 8MP
rear-facing camera, a front-facing video calling camera and a 2,100mAh battery.
Google started selling the Nexus 4 in the UK on 13 November, but sold out
within minutes.
I have the 8 and 16 GB model. The 8GB is going for $400+ in the aftermarket and I could sell the 16GB upto $700
ReplyDeleteI'll give you $5000 for the 8GB model. Please say yes!
