[Q] Nexus 4 discontinued? (Norway) - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I'm ready for swapping out my old HTC Desire S, and one of the options is the Nexus 4 of course. While looking here in Norway, it seems that nobody is selling the phone anymore. I remember browsing around in early July and there were plenty of places selling them. But now it's hard to come by. As examples:
1) The biggest operator (Telenor) used to sell it, but the page is gone.
2) On online store (teknikmagasinet.no) states that the product has been discontinued
There's also that famous article from the Inquirer saying back in July that the device was gone from one big seller in the UK.
Could this be it? Could it be the end of the Nexus 4, foretelling the Nexus 5? I would like to know because if this is the case, then I can wait a couple of months.
Regards
/p

Well new phone is coming out in q4 for sure.

Hi,
Very likely there is going to be a new nexus launched in the coming few months. Nonetheless the n4 is a great phone. You'd do well either to buy the next one new when it's released or else get a second hand one at that point - lots of people will trade up & eBay their old n4, I reckon.

Thank you for your replies. Then it seems I'll hold it. Either new Nexus or second hand N4. :good:

I'm not quite sure but if the new nexus comes out on america at the end of this year, it will probably be sold out. It'll take some extra months until it te reaches Europe.

It's back again! Nexus 4, here I come !! :laugh:

Tab 2 7.0 price dropping below $199... new one coming out or in response to Nexus 7?

I noticed some merchants have the Tab 2 7.0 price dropping below $199...
(as shown on Google Shopping search results)
Is this because a new one(Tab 3 7.0) is coming out
or is this in response to Nexus 7? Or both?

Nexus 7. This device just came out, so no way Samsung would throw in the towel and scrap it already.

nevermind... I was wrong... can't seem to find any Tab 2 7.0
being discounted at all... are are still the same price as before.
(at least at the normal reputable retailers)
Question already answered...
Microcenter had them for $199.99 (P3113). I picked one up last Saturday. Now I can't find even one at any location.
Yeah, I picked up this tablet at Microcenter. I was actually very fortunate, because I went to Fry's first and they didn't have it. So I called Microcenter and they happened to be selling it on $199 and they had 180ish in stock. I love the tablet very much and my father seemed as well, so I went and got him another one two weeks later. They only had a few in stock though.
I don't think they are going down in price. Microcenter was the only well-known store I saw selling it on a discount ,and it was only because it's on sale right now Actually the sale seems to have extended another two weeks, but it seems to be selling regular price everywhere else. There are other places under Google>Shopping selling it for cheaper too, but it depends on if you feel comfortable shopping somewhere without much of a reputation...
Microcenter will discount things other retailers won't for short periods of time. Usually you have to be in the right place, at the right time, or be willing to take a chance and drive to one quickly when you here they have a special. Store stock on their web site means little as they can sell 50 in an hour if it hits the net that one store "has stock" of whatever specials they offer.
I like the fact that Tab 2 has an SD slot, but with the ability to use an OTB USB cable with the 7, this becomes less of an issue.
My Tab 2 died yesterday. It will be on it's way back to Samsung for repair. Let's see how this goes...If I had it to do all over again, I would have skipped the Tab 2 for the 7 even if they were the same price.
For folks who live near Expo Electronics in New Jersey.... I bought two from them for $205+tax last week. $5 more than MicroCenter's $199, but I don't have any MicroCenters near me.

Right time to buy

I'm ready to buy a nexus 7 but I've seen a couple of rumors that a price change or something new may be around the corner. (32 gb model) Normally I wouldn't pay attention. But the few stores I did go to were either out or low on Units and said it would be a couple of weeks before a new shipment.
I'm just asking the community if you think it's a good time to buy or wait a few weeks for something better

Personally. I'd wait a month or so. There is rumor of 32GB Nexus 7 being released here, here and over here to name a few. All conjecture at this point, but the evidence is compelling.
Additionally, JBQ has indicated that there is a new hardware revision coming to Nexus 7 - which may or may not be related to a 32GB model.
you should wait fa it as it is almost certain that 32gb version is true
Wish it ships with 3g fa the same price as that of presen 16gb

Right time to buy a Nexus 4 or wait?

Hey everyone,
I'm considering to buy a new Phone. My current phone is the HTC Desire, which I use for about 2.5 years now.
Would your recommend buying a Nexus 4 now or is it worth waiting for the X-Phone or the next Nexus device? Some sources claim, that we will see those devices around June, after Google's developer conference. I definitely want a pure Google device.
The thing that is holding me back is that it we are about to allot new gen devices in the near future, with the new iteration of specs. (1080p display, Snapdragon 600 and 800...) So it seems to be a good idea to wait another 3 months or so...
What do you think?
Newer technology is always around the corner, you will wait forever if you always wait for the Next Big Thing. How easy will it be to get one of these as-yet-unreleased phones, and how much will they cost?
The N4 is available right now, at a bargain price, and will be a big step up from your Desire ...

After Upgrading from a HTC Desire Z, my only regret is that i didn't buy it sooner.
I got mine from T-Mobile free after 50 dollar Mir.

I think that all of those devices will be non nexus, bloated, at the mercy of the Manufacturer devices. And for what? More processing power to view your email? The screens may be nice tho. I don't see why you'd need 1080p on a less then 5in screen tho...
After owning this phone three weeks. I can't see going back to a carrier bloated samsung, HTC, or moto phone.
Look at the galaxy nexus, last year's hardware and it's still one of the smoothest and fastest phones because of pure android. The nexus 4 will hold its value too, it's only 349, don't buy the 8gb. You can always sell on ebay if you don't like it and come out even right now and I have a feeling n4 will keep selling on ebay for close to what you pay from Google. The only issues I have with the n4 is the camera is just not as good in poor lighting as my s3 was, other than that it's great. It's the best deal in Tech. Compared to the desire it's going to be ridiculous.

The right time is now OP. As others have said there is ALWAYS a newer phone with more impressive specs around the corner. With that mindset you will be waiting forever. I realize you dont want to buy the nexus 4 now and a few weeks later the next nexus device is announced. eh "such is life" OP
I'm pretty happy with mine. I'm coming from a Bionic.
I still probably will consider the x phone but this is certainly a solid enough device that I won't feel the need to jump ship the day it is released.

I just got mine on Tuesday (ordered Saturday) to replace my Galaxy Nexus - best decision I've made as the higher DPI alone makes it better IMO
OK, 1080p screens are nice and that but I don't need it as I don't watch films/play games on my phone
Sv: Right time to buy a Nexus 4 or wait?
It's the right time, upgraded from a nexus one. So i recommend nexus 4. A real catch in my eyes. ^^,

Deal alert. Brand new 32GB Nexus 7 £149.99 at O2

I know basically everyone who wants a 2013 Nexus 7 probably has one by now, but just thought this was worth letting everyone know about. O2 sell the Wi-Fi version of the tablet next to the LTE model. They don't specify a capacity on the website, so I assumed I'd be getting a 16GB model. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that they delivered a 32GB Nexus to me! Worth knowing about if you're thinking of picking one up.
Wow thats a no brainer
The back of my Nexus 7 has a fairly long crack and its sad that i can't find anywhere to replace it
I ordered an unopened new 16GB for £120 from ebay the other day, it's too late for me to return it as it wont be here for another 10 days or so (coming from America) ah well haha

Nexus 6 Saudi Thread (Pricing and Availability)

I have been to the Jarir bookstore here in khurais road but still no news of incoming nexus 6. Its kinda sad, im hoping to get the item upon getting my month end salary but the longer i wait, the more im inclined to buy note 4 which is already available at the jarir store. Anyone else here in Saudi waiting for the nexus 6? My guess the pricing will be around 2500 SR.

Hi there, I'm from Riyadh, I too, also patiently waiting for the Nexus 6 to arrive here. Unfortunately it's not available yet. Maybe we have to wait until December. =( But I think it's worthy to wait, I don't kinda like the touchwiz software of the note4, pure stock vanilla android lollipop is the best. I wish the price will just be around 2000sr. =)
From Dubai
Waiting for this to be released in dubai. Many online Sites have it listed as coming soon but no prices. And Nexus 9 went on sale this week in Jumbo Electronics. :fingers-crossed:

I hear you man. I broke my Nexus 4 last night, screen completely shattered. Don't want to buy Nexus 5 from Jarir, so I'm gonna stuck with my old SGSII for a while till the Nexus 6 is available. Using Touchwiz after using pure stock android is a drawback.
Finger crossed they'll make it available soonish.
I went back to jarir and as of today, still no word of any nexus 6 shipping. The good thing is hopefully we wont be getting the faulty first batch of nexus 6. I see alot complaints already like peeling nexus logo, flimsy speaker grill and scratched back cover.
any news on the availability of this phone? my phone screen broke yesterday, and now I need a new phone
I need this phone now

My dad is come home from Dubai for a couple of weeks, then he as to go back. I go there once a year, myself. I's an amazing place, however, electronics are expensive there; unless you go to Dragon Mart and get knockoffs. lol.
and still no word from jarir for the nexus 6
Hmmmm.. Any body can going to "Al-mursalat" and ask him?

I don't recommend asking in Almursalat area, it is better to support official channels like STC, Mobily... etc,. This way, demand on devices will guarantee fast availability on newly released devices. Unofficially, however, I'm sure that imported devices from the UK for example are available, but I wont take it with no warranty and no guarantee on full network support.
In STC magazine, the Nexus 6 was posted as a "Coming Soon" device, Most likely in the upcoming month or two, on and off contract. The prices were not announced but I'm guessing, based on previous releases like the nexus 5, that it will be around the official US price of $650 (USD).
I hope I was thorough in answering your question.
you can buy it on amazon uk. Yes, it's expensive when converting £ to SR, but this the only way now or you can wait 1-3 months. I've already paid 4173 SR (incl. tax) for nexus 6 64gb model XT1100 (LTE works in saudi arabia).

Nexus 6 Saudi Arabia
Still Jarir people are refusing to even comment on the availability of nexus 6. The point is this that why Jarir, extra and similar stores are so lazy in bringing some devices to the market in Saudi Arabia. Even they had very limited stocks of Note 4, it came and it disappeared very quickly even in Riyadh.
In Mursalat I went today and no availability of Nexus 6 there too. Anybody knows tentative launch of nexus 6 via STC?
you can search dubizzle. there is a guy offering new nexus 6 as per his speech (i think these phones are shipped to him from US or EUROPE unofficially) . if you decided to go for it ... let us know

Good News!
I'm happy to bring you the good news!! STC just released Nexus 6, exclusively, through their channels.
The price tag is SR2799 off contract with limited 1 year warranty. On-contract, however, STC is offering a whole system that depends on your "rating" and "rank" in the company's records. Call STC to know what criteria you fall under.
I would add the link to the device but I don't have that privilege, being a new user, to add links in the forum.
However, navigate to STC's website, go to devices and you'll find it in the newly added devices section, you can't miss it.
I hope you find this post helpful, have a good one.
