Don't forget, the last two Nexus (first two...) I have bought, on release day, for just £430... maybe they'll be aiming under the £500 mark again?

CPW had the Nexus S £545 on pre-order and then suddenly dropped the price to £430 about a week later. I suspect they were told to drop it.

Exactly.

yeah i'm gonna be very careful with my preorder. as much as i want this ASAP. I would almost prefer a fixed price apple style. but that kinda defeats what the open android market is all about

I just hope i can upgrade to this. I'm on voda and my contract ends tomorrow :cool:

I just have a feeling most carriers won't be stocking it, so it might be a case of getting the best phone you can from your upgrade and flogging it and getting the Nexus sim free, which might be a blessing as i know voda like to load the phone with crap.

carriers maybe not but should be able to upgrade via CPWH or place like it

From what i can gather, with contract the minimum price for the phone might be around the £200 mark.

That's on the grapevine so could very well change.

And for those that said they want an led notification light, looks like it will.

I'm hoping for a £30 per month contract for maybe 24 months with the phone free. I got my HTC desire 18 months ago free with 25£ month contract pre release.

Only willing to sign for 24 this time as i dont see me needing any more power than this in that time

Must contain significant data!

US contract prices are very different to the UK. We get a very good deal compared to them.

hux · 16 Oct 2011 at 13:46

Fair enough, did think it was a bit on the high side.

Intratech · 16 Oct 2011 at 20:56

edit wrong thread, see sgs 2 thread

Exynos 4210! Also if that is pentile, it's impossible to tell. Perfect.

edit:

Better not be a Verizon GS2 with ICS

I think that might be why the bottom of the phone is hidden.

Yeah that's what I think it is. Thought I was on the SGS 2 thread.

Oh well. Roll on the 19th.

_Jimlad_ · 16 Oct 2011 at 21:21

why would you have such a cropped picture? it blocks everything you would want to see! S2 with ice cream me thinks!

(edit doubt its even ICE cream, just a fake)

Yeah the uk contracts are better than USA, about the only thing that is!

Still hoping for 30£ or less with free phone
