One of our readers who ordered the Nexus S from Carphone Warehouse for the Android phone’s original RRP of £549 was rightly a little concerned after the price was chopped to £429 before the phone even launched – but everything has turned out OK!
CPW is refunding the difference, as you might expect – and has stock of the Nexus S in right now and ready to go. Here’s a snippet from Reader Baz’s dealings with the retailer:
I can confirm that we will be contacting you within the next few days to offer a refund for the difference on the Nexus handset that you have ordered.
I can also confirm that we now have stock of the handset, so your order will be completed shortly and sent out for delivery weather permitting.
Honestly, £549. What were they thinking?
Nice phone, but we’re officially Waiting Until February to see what gets unveiled at Mobile World Congress before planning the next upgrade. If you do fancy nailing your mast to the Nexus S, though, check out the deals at Carphone Warehouse.
HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
