What is with the nexus 4 pricing? - General Topics

Everyone touts how Google makes a great phone for cheap but I can't find it anywhere for a reasonable price. Many places want $600+. That's just too much.after spending half the day researching I think I want to give straighttalk a try. Guess I'm going to be looking for second hand phone somewhere.

When I click on that link it just defaults to the main page of the playstore. Does it matter that I'm in the US? Google says $299 but can't find that anywhere

AT&T HTC One X Phone Storage only 10GB??AT&T HTC One X Phone Storage only 10GB??

AT&T HTC One X Phone Storage only 10GB??AT&T HTC One X Phone Storage only 10GB??
Hi,
I just bought HTC One X yesterday from AT&T for $199. After I went back to home, I found that the Phone Storage of my htc one x is only 9.93GB. That's TOOOOOO small for a smart phone without removable SD card availability.
Is there any problem with my phone? Or is it the way it is?
So sad now.... I even want to return my phone and change to Samsung Galaxy SIII....
Also, someone mentioned that in Amazon and Walmart, AT&T HOX only sell about $120. Is that HOX the same as the one that I bought in AT&T store for $199?
Thanks
Ummm
So you think you got a faulty one?
Jk.. but really, you havnt done that much research have you?

You get 25 gb of space free with dropbox. You have to download the app.
Wow, another one of these threads. Can't have too many of them, apparently.

This is the first one I've seen about the 9.93 gb.
No, you didn't get a faulty one. That is normal. The other 4GB are for system usage.

I know it will be 16G, but I never expect it to be 10G. And I make a mistake of not searching it on amazon before I went to ATT store. The $80 difference in price kind of make me feel bad.

Same here. My boss always tells me I spend more time on XDA than anyone he knows. I might not have enough money to own all of the devices, but this place is my home. I like to help whenever possible and enjoy the company in little threads like this.
I always thought there's no harm in a little thread derail in the general section. It's what keeps us close

Really doesn't matter. Its only free for a year then you have to pay. Kind of pointless if you ask me. I pretty much use Google services for everything i need...
Google music allows you to store an astronomical amount of music for free and available to listen to on the go...
Google plus will back up all of your photos for you on the fly and store them in the cloud indefinitely.
The hitch I see with the amount of memory is being limited on storing multiple roms and twrp backups...
Honestly the way I switch phones I figure it won't be long before I have something new in my hands with removable memory....
Or maybe won't but I'll survive either way.

Funny, because Dropbox's website says,
"U.S. AT&T and Verizon customers
Select carriers have opted-out of the promotion on phones otherwise eligible. Unfortunately, AT&T and Verizon are among these carriers not currently participating."
https://www.dropbox.com/help/249
Try google drive.
I swear there used to be a thread about getting the free storage on the AT&T HOX.

Because at one point, the promo was real (I got it). It seems that one of the parties opted out right after the HOX went on sale.
You'd think att and Verizon would encourage cloud storage due to increasing data usage. I guess that could go either way though. Increased data usage mean more people sopping up bandwidth but also means more $$$ in their pocket...

HTC Media Link For Sale - Used once for 15 minutes

My brother bought it when he was in Pennsylvania on his way home. He used once yesterday at our house. He didn't care too much about it so he wanted me to sell it.
It retails for $89.99 from T-Mobile.
It has everything. The Media Hub, HDMI, power adapter, USB cable,manuals, box.
Throw me offers. Don't lowball me or else I will discontinue my One S toolkit . U.S.A only and I accept PayPal. Sorry guys.
What would be your lowball figure, the one that you absolutely well not go below?

Many best buys will not honor this, they usually only match some of the big sites.

I went to Best Buy to get the price match. They identified both sites that have it listed for under $350 as "Phishing Scams". For whatever reason, they still did it. I walked out for $349.99

The international one, because it will get software updates faster, no at&t bloatware, and you don't live in an LTE area so there shouldn't be a differencr

Ordered S4 from Walmart![8-8-13][Information on firmware][TAKE the POLL]

So, this is my second S4, it may be a short run depending on how the phone ships!
Here is the info to be supplied by this post!
1. Price I paid to Walmart.
2. Time it takes to arrive, (remember I purchased online 8/8/2013)
3. What firmware did it ship with? (will report soon as I get it)
4. If not updated, (possible rooting before the update happens)
5. End result, (those of you wondering if you can get the Samsung 3rd party before the last OTA update) we will solve here!
6. Updates will appear in post #3
Stay Tuned!!!
Walmart Price
$159.95 cheaper then ATT at posting!
this is based on 2 yr renew contract!
FREE FEDEX SHIPPING!
My Device has shipped with an arrival date of the 13th...
Updates will appear here!
:laugh:THINGS WE NOW KNOW:laugh:
1. Good deals exist through out the various carriers, do research before you buy!
2. Good sources, (right here in this thread) suggest the firmware is on the box...(look before purchasing)
3. Athough a good deal can be had online, your taking a chance of getting the updated/locked-down firmware from hell...
4. 3rd parties as well as the carriers still are shipping the old firmware, but as old stock depletes latest will be shipping!
5. If you are fortunate to get the older firmware... do not insert Sim until rooted & booted to prevent OTA..
6. My personal S4 from walmart shipped and has a delivery date of 8/13/2013
7. Please take the pole...
THANKS for STOPPING BY!
Sorry but this thread is pointless, even if you get an mdl (pre mf3) from walmart doesnt mean all wallmarts or third parties will be the same...some att stores are still selling mdl and others mf3...it just depends what that individual store has in stock

1. That is true, but some folks want to take some guesswork out of the math equation...
2. Its a better chance for Walmart to have stockpiled S4's directly from Samsung having the old Firmware..
3. If this post is useless to you... Move along!
Thanks, for posting!
Just curious, does anyone know if there is an identifier on the box that could give away the build date of the device? Would only help checking out local inventory, if possible. I threw mine away about 2 weeks ago.
