    I'd be shocked if they are put up on the Irish store the same day as they go on the American and UK stores, there is always a shortage of these things at the begining and I can see them restricting access to some stores. Of course I hope I'm wrong, I just don't think that because we got devices that we can expect everything first.

    Can't see this being released today, I'm fairly sure it will be the end of the month.

    Edit Sorry meant the nexus 6

    Edit Sorry meant the nexus 6

    I don't think there was any suggestion of any nexus devices being released today. there supposed to be an announcement on the google blog, possibly preorders being taken today for release early November.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,319 ✭✭✭emo72


    Someone check and see if they are awake in America yet. We are waiting patiently over here. Can anyone post a link to the official Google announcement blog page?

    Edit.....Sorry for being a lazy ass. Is this it?

    It's up there on the Google blog now. Looks very nice, all the features that were expected including the rubberised keyboard. Available for pre-order in two days' time.

    Disappointed in both the price - it'll be €399 here - and 4:3ish screen of the Nexus 9. Was waiting to see what it would be but think I'll be going for the Nvidia Shield Tablet instead.

    I actually think its a fair price for the specs.it was always billed as a premium tablet.i will be ordering one in 2 days to go with my nexus 10 and nexus 7 :). Actually my nexus 10 will be going to a good home as soon as i get the 9.

    This is a premium product in all fairness, Premium build, top of the line Tegra K1.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,575 ✭✭✭AlanS181824


    So disappointed with the pricing, really wish they were less.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    It just takes it into iPad territory and outside of the real enthusiasts, I don't think they'll be able to compete.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    Where's the pricing for Europe?

    Not announced but $399 in the US which almost always translates as €399 here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,319 ✭✭✭emo72


    399 euro is decent for what it is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    I see. I'd still take one over an iPad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,006 ✭✭✭beno619


    Unless Google are killing the N7 it just means there's a new high end option.

    Apart from app ecosystem the N9 will be pretty well placed vs the new iPad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,541 ✭✭✭duridian


    I'm kinda surprised at the 2GB RAM. Thought with the advent of 64 bit era in Android and all they would bump it up a bit more. I know it isn't truly necessary yet, but would have been sweet to have a tablet with 4GB that it could fully use just for e-peen bragging rights. :-P

    I don't normally buy keyboards for my nexus tablets, but I could be tempted by this one.

    can a mod change the title of this thread from "its coming" to " its here" ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,897 ✭✭✭megaten


    32gb isn't much for max storage when it doesn't take memory cards.

    ... or possibly put an Android smoking a cigarette in the first post :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,970 ✭✭✭Lenin Skynard


    That price point is making me have a re-think to be honest. I was in at €320 or so but if it ends up at €400, I might sit tight for another while and see what competitors do next.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,986 ✭✭✭Spazdarn


    I'm really interested in this, heard the keyboard for it is going to cost a fortune though. When I account for the fact I'll be looking to get the 4g version and the keyboard, it's pretty pricy.

    yeah I really want the keyboard,but I,m not going to pay a fortune for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,683 ✭✭✭zweton


    how hard will it be to get here when it comes out guys?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,303 ✭✭✭ionapaul


    I'm gonna be in NYC for the weekend of Nov 7th - assuming I find some shops with this in stock, does anything think I'm correct in thinking:

    1) The US price, even including NYC sales tax at almost 9%, will be better than the Irish price
    2) If I run into problems back in Ireland, I'll be able to return to Google/the manufacturer here easily enough (I previously had problems with my first Nexus 7 2012 and the manufacturer didn't even look for evidence of purchase in processing the RMA and fixing it, it was great)

    I like the look of the keyboard but I do want to see a review of how it works in practice, especially if it is pricey.

    €400 for the tablet is on the high end but it is directly competing with the IPad market. Looks great though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭droidman123


    Wow just read that the keyboard will be $129, i aasume that will equate to €129.might be a bit steep for me as i am going to get 32gb version of the tablet,that would be over €600!!

    Yeah I was thinking of getting the keyboard as well but not if its that price. I'll hang on for an aftermarket one if that pricing is confirmed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,845 ✭✭✭Jet Black


    Amazon.de have it up now with prices as expected unfortunately. €399 for 16gb and €489 for the 32gb.

    Probably going to be cheaper that Play Store as, IIRC, Play Store whacks on about a tenner for shipping.

    Bought a OnePlus One this morning and will look forward to this this evening!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,303 ✭✭✭ionapaul


    Wow, those UK prices are MUCH higher than the US prices, right?

    I searched for the 32GB Wifi model on bestbuy.com, approx. €410 converted including sales tax
    The same on Amazon.co.uk is €500 converted!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Order placed for 32 gig black on Amazon UK.

    Now to get the Nexus 6 ordered...

    Tech has always been roughly $1 = €1. I assume the item you were looking at was the 32gb model which is $480 I think. So same as always. Not a good idea to actually work it out as it will make you sad. :(

    £409 for the 32gb after paddy tax. Exchange is bad at the moment. About .79 so roughly €517 then whatever the bank charges.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,657 ✭✭✭corkie


    Nexus 9 (32 GB, Wifi, Black) @ €489.00 Playstore link.
