***The Official LG Nexus 4 Thread***

[mcken200]

Just to confirm handsets are not available Sim Free at the moment but are unlocked even if you buy it on a certain contract (just like with most CPW phones)

Thanks for the clarification, I meant unlocked not Sim Free.
Well as long I use different SIM cards with the nexus I am happy.

When I get my N4 i.e if I get my N4, I will break the bloody bumper and throw it in the bin. This is a joke. And they still have the bumpers in stock ! it's not as if they ran out or something. FFS. Google.

[a.tunnard]

no change, just order received and pending. nothings changed, its just the email.

 

[sonic_rm]

Just replied to the email:

Thank you for taking the **** and not letting me know this 2 days ago when I placed the order. People who placed the order after me have received their phone, it's because of the bloody bumper isn't it ?
Why on earth would you commit to something if you can't fulfill demand. Pathetic. I can't cancel it as I don't have any other options now do I. It's a hell lot more expensive elsewhere.

Thank you Google.

Thank you for your recent purchase on Google Play. Due to overwhelming demand, your Nexus 4 is on backorder and is expected to ship within three weeks. We’ll send you a notification when your order has shipped and will credit the shipping charges.

Are they saying if I wait (upto) 3 weeks for delivery, they'll refund the shipping charges, big woop. I guess this so means there won't be any new stock for that time either? And I didn't order a bumper either.

 

[Matteysan]

Still no email here. But 3 weeks? They are having a laugh!

Why this wasn't done on a first come first serve basis I will never know.

i didnt order a bumper...

I always thought google were a reputable organisation but this is now just a complete farce. How are they supposed to win over the masses for android if they can't organise a smooth mobile launch - they pretty much own the internet for crikey sakes

Ah well I just got so angry and pi**** off that I had to mention it.
