For the nexus 7? I sure hope this doesn't apply to those that already ordered it, and its just for those saps that didn't get on the ball to order it right away.

what did it initially say?
The gamestop says shipping on 7/31
it said 2-3 weeks for me and that was on the 29th June, :crying: any longer and I'll loose my mind!
still says 2 - 3 weeks in Australian Google Play store
Mine still says 2-3 weeks, I think you're crazy.
I live in the US as well.
Mine says 2 - 3 weeks still im in UK
Damn, I should have taken a screen shot. Last night it said 3-4 weeks. Now it says 2-3 weeks again. Hooray!
I think it was really late last night when I went online to look. Initially, I was looking at the case to see what the lead time was. The case said 3-4 weeks. Now it just says "Sign up to be notified by email when it becomes available." I am trying to upload a picture, but it is not cooperating.

I checked thee play store when i saw your thread, the 8gb was 3-4 weeks and 16 was 2-3 and ten minutes later both were 2-3. Now i have a new dilemma, this unit or an ipad 2 for the same price?
seen it 2-3 yesterday morning and 3-4 at night when i ordered. hopefully i'm not waiting for another shipment.
i'm only 35min. from Google HQ!!!
I said this in another thread, but I think whatever it said when you ordered your Nexus 7 is when you can expect to get it. If you ordered the second it was available, when it said 2-3 weeks, then you should get it the week of 7/9 or 7/16. If you order it today when it says 3-4 weeks, then you should get it the week of 7/23 or 7/30.
They're probably getting in constant shipments and shipment estimates (i.e., they're on the boat), and matching those to orders. So, estimated times are for orders placed right then, and would be variable based on orders vs. anticipated shipments.
I'm willing to bet real money that they received some number of shipments already, and are only awaiting some final software tweaks before shipping them out. Probably, they'll release them when they have a specific build quality in hand, and then we'll update immediately after first turning them on. That's my guess, anyways.

If you're still not sure it means you don't care for Android so go for Apple.

Im from UK. They started selling around 8:05am, i ordered at 8:35 (after they had gone out of stock and back to stock a few times)
i bought mine at 9:25 i have some issues with checkout but after a few time i finally get it.... im from germany
No one. I'd be very surprised if anyone did!
Personally I tried about 100 times before I eventually got through - just as I was about to lose all hope.

I tried 101 times and finally, even though the last payment screen froze and I gave up, I later received an email confirmation.
The Play store page says that the device will ship on the 15th, so if that's realistic we should be receiving it on Monday.
some could get it and a lot of didnt..check the poll:

How to order Nexus 4 ?
Hello everyone. I want to buy this new android smartphone (Nexus 4), but Google Play isn't available in my country. How can i buy it at the astonishing price of 350 EUR (16 gb version) ? I'll pay the shipping..that's not a problem. Where I live (in Romania), the phone will probably appear in stores in December at the price of ~~599 EUR. A little help from you guys.
Thank you!:good:

Had my browser set to auto refresh every 5 seconds since 11pm last night, and ordering went live for me at 8:33am PST. I completed my order by 8:34, thankfully no hiccups at all in the process. Had to have been one of the very first orders, and thankfully managed to beat the rush of errors!
Error....error...error
My normal account had errors repeatedly so I basically made a new account. With the new account, it took like 2 minutes without any error....
Edit: Like 1 minutes after I finished the purchase, Nexus 4 16GB sold out.
With the N5 coming soon, it's finally time to ditch my trusty old GNex. The G2 has most of the things I'm looking for in a phone (large, high quality screen, great battery life, excellent camera), but the $600 off-contract price and bloatware makes it a no go for me. The N5 looks really good on paper, but unfortunately it nerfs most of the things I like about the G2. I was hoping to wait for reviews and comparisons to come out first, but "waiting after release" for a Nexus product has it's own problems, in terms of actually being able to get one.
So I wanted to ask you guys for your experience with the N4. How long was it between being available at the Play Store and being sold out? Was it available for preorder and did it sell out even then? How long after selling out did it become available again? And when did you buy your N4 and how easy/hard it was to get?
If I recall correctly, the first batch was sold out within 15-20 mins.
And then a second batch was available after few weeks after.
And I think after 6~8 weeks most of the people who miss their chance with the 1st and 2nd batches got theirs.
I think after 2 or 3 months, they start having steady stock? Someone can correct this.
Google claims they did not anticipate that many buyers for the devices.
There wasn't a preorder on the release date,
but I'm sure they will have enough stock or preorder this time around.

i think your right but even after the 2 month there was still a 4-5 week waiting list
Well, I remember that I was mad at google on launch day because they started sales 30 minutes before it was supposed to go on sale, so by the time I was able to take out my phone in class to buy one, they were sold out. Then I had to wait until November 27th to buy one, that was when the second batch came out, and it arrived on Dec. 6th.

I'll add to this that on the first day, November 13th they did indeed sell out in the first 15 minutes which was 15 minutes before the official start time. I logged on at the correct time, noon pacific, and was still able to place an order but it was placed on backorder a day later, the system kept taking orders even though they were sold out throughout that first day. My backorder was filled on the 27th and arrived around the 6th some peoples backorders arrived weeks later and the system would periodically take new orders but they too would go into backorder. It took months to get it all sorted out.
I waited until January and I finally got too antsy and paid $415 for it on eBay. That's how impatient I am at times. Granted back then the markup I paid was only $115 (actually less since I didn't have to pay sales tax) since it was still price at $299 then. Was worth it to me.
Got it after tax refund in February

Well technically speaking, Google never specified a time that it would go on sale. They only specified a date, and nothing else. The fact that it would launch at different places within their respective time zones was also unknown to us (however somewhat known to the US people as it launched in places like Australia and the UK first).
Everyone only had conjectures about the times, and lots of people like me checked at every time possible, including 9 PM the night before, 10 PM the night before, 11 PM the night before, midnight the night before, 9 Am the next morning, etc. I think people expected it to come at 9 AM like Google's usual launches, yet it ended up actually launching at 8:27 AM PST or something near that. People who checked at 9 AM, such as yourselves I'm assuming, were already too late unfortunately. I for some reason was just paranoid about it and had been refreshing the page every five minutes since nearly 8 AM. Still, even at 8:30, the site was having major problems and I was only able to get my order through at 9:00ish, a few minutes before it sold out. Sort of the reason was because my Google Wallet stuff wasn't ready yet, so yes, when you do order, have that address + credit card ready beforehand as the default.
I was in the first 15 minutes to order. I used a chrome app to refresh the page for me and alert when there was a change. I was awake all night until it was purchased (granted I work nights so it was no big deal for me). However, I didn't get it for like 4 weeks. I had to call Google a few times and they kept giving different answers and stated that some were some how lost, but if they manually looked it up they could find your order. So, I was way behind when I should have got it.

I ordered first day. Woke up 10 minutes after it went online and it was sold out. But, around 2pm I bought one after class. Unfortunately, I got that dreadful backorder email later that night took about two weeks to get mine from the second batch

I got mine at the second batch. Sold out in 3 minutes though...
So, good luck to all of us.
I got mine in about January. I couldn't get my hands on one in Europe until then.
Definitely worth the wait though :laugh:.
I have been trying since day one to order a Nexus 6. Last Wednesday I did get to put 2 in my cart and they disappeared. I had pre-put one in my cart on the Motorola site. When it went live I did not know. But tried to check out with my cart later, "Out of stock". I have Page Monitor, push bullet, Punchr Page Monitor, Auto Refresh Plus on computer and 2 cell phones. They have been going off all morning. Still cannot put one in my cart. This is ridiculous Google. Hope this phone is worth it. At least Apple have their stuff together on pre orders.
Can't wait for this thread to close

Interesting no one mentioned the 3 free months of YouTube Red you get in the Pixel's paperwork.
Best thing about Red is you can listen to music while the screen is off, there used to be a few apps that did that in the Play store, but google kicked them out.
EDIT: It's actually Play Music APP. Just open it from your Pixel and it will offer you the 3 free month trial. §
§ This Google Play Music 3 month trial promotional offer is only open to residents in United States, Canada, Great Britain, Australia and Germany who purchase and activate a Pixel between October 4, 2016 and December 1, 2017. Offer only available to customers who are not current Google Play Music subscribers, have not been Google Play Music subscribers nor participated in a Google Play Music trial in the past 12 months. To activate the offer, open the Google Play Music app on your Pixel. Offer must be redeemed by midnight (local time) on December 1, 2017. Valid form of payment required at sign-up but will not be charged until the trial period expires. At the end of the trial period, you will be automatically charged the standard subscription price, currently USD $9.99 in the United States, CAD $9.99 in Canada, £9.99 per month in Great Britain (VAT Inclusive), AUD $11.99 in Australia and €9,99 per month in Germany (VAT inclusive) per month. You can cancel your trial at no charge at any time before the trial is over. Offer requires a Google account
NOTE: If you've already used a trial or have an account, you can just add another google account to your phone and chose it instead when you open Play Music, you will lose songs from your previous account, as it will delete them when you switch accounts, if you were already using it.
NOTE2: I've since used mozilla/firefox with adblock plus addon to listen to youtube videos, since it allows you to turn off the screen and it continues playing.
I'm wondering if the Google Home's 6-month Red will stack on the Pixel's 3-months. I'm waiting to activation the free one from Pixel until Monday when my Google Home gets here.
What do you have to do to get the 3 months free?
I broke out my Pixel box and contents to look for more information. One of the small cards says "Enjoy 3 months of google play music on us. Open the play music app to get started". I opened the play music app and there was the offer. I had heard that Play Music and Youtube Red are combined. I checked and Youtube Red is working.

It won't. The fine print on the offers is you can't be a current subscriber or one in the last 12 months to redeem one of these offers.

That stinks. I'll probably give the 3 months to my brother then, as I'm doing the 6 months I got with my home today
No YouTube Red here in the UK! If they add it here I'd keep my subscription, I'm probably just going to stick with Spotify though as their music app is definitely better to use and much better for discovering new music.
AD free YouTube and YouTube playback minimised would be a game changer for me though.

You can do the same thing on the firefox mobile browser, but it will take video data instead of audio like youtube red does.
Okay, I got my phone on the 2nd and used google play yesterday but when i go into the app it says that my free trial has expired. I've never subbed for google play before.

Yeah, i just did. I spoke with both a Google rep and a Youtube rep on the issue. The Youtube guy said that he was only able to find a cardless free trial for 14 days that i got for downloading Google play music back in March which didn't require any payment methods. The Google rep said that he will escalate my case and get back to me within 24-48 hours. Guess we will see what happens. Ill report back what happens. Anyone else have this issue?
I have subscribed to Play music and canceled when I saw we get 3 free months. However, I don't see the offer when I go to the app. Kind of sucks.

Mine is about not being able to purchase a Pixel XL, site giving me errors and saying I can only buy 1. Or when I hit complete/confirm purchase, it comes back with an error or error 500. Then I checked my bank and it showed transactions pending of $0 but no confirmations the purchase went through. This has been ongoing for about a month now, so if anything I want to see it they can still qualify me for the free DayDream VR.
