Nexus 5 Apparently In Stock At Carphone Warehouse

Nexus 5 Apparently In Stock At Carphone Warehouse

Google is yet to reveal when it is going to announce the anxiously awaited Nexus 5 smartphone, let alone when it is going to be available for purchase. The company hasn’t rolled out invites for a launch event as yet, though it is expected to make the announcement in the coming days. Apparently one of the largest retailers in the UK, Carphone Warehouse, is sitting on a large stock on Nexus 5 units prior to the launch. The retailer is believed to have as many as 3,000 Nexus 5 units, 1,500 both in black and white, in stock at its Wednesbury warehouse.

Its certainly not unusual for retailers to start receiving stock ahead of an official announcement, that’s why we often see so many screenshots of internal inventory systems being leaked online. This particular screenshot does seem to belong to the internal inventory system that Carphone Warehouse uses, an archaic yellow and blue user interface that has been previously seen in a number of other leaks. It is obviously not known if the 3,000 units are all that going to be supplied to the retailer initially, or if its going to receive additional shipments prior to the release. A latest rumor pegs the Nexus 5 launch date at November 1st. [Image via AndroidPolice]

    HTC One mini launching on almost all UK carriers around August 9th

    HTC One Mini launching on all UK carriers from August

    We’ve reached out to all of the usual suspects, and only one of them hasn’t stuck a thumb up and winked when we’ve asked if it’ll be carrying HTC’s “diminutive” new smartphone. O2, EE, Vodafone, Phones4U and Carphone Warehouse have all confirmed that they’ll carry the One mini, while ThreeUK has yet to get back to us. There’s no solid information on how much the device will cost on a monthly or one-off basis, but Carphone Warehouse is already accepting sim-free pre-orders for a very plausible £380. That same retailer is also saying that the phone is due to arrive on August 9th, but we’ll take that assertion with a pinch of environmentally-friendly salt.

    BlackBerry Z10 priced at £480 SIM-free by purported Carphone Warehouse database leak (update)

    BlackBerry Z10 purportedly hits Carphone Warehouse database, 480 unlocked

    With all the BlackBerry 10 leaks as of late, it seems inevitable that pricing info would get ousted in the lead up to January 30th. Thanks to an anonymous tipster, it appears that the SIM-free version of RIM’s Z10 will cost UKers a cool £480 at Carphone Warehouse (for perspective, a 16GB iPhone 5 would run you just roughly £30 more). The leak comes from what’s said to be a snapshot of the company’s internal database, listing the white variant. The attached BLAZ10WHI model number also syncs up nicely with the previous slip from the retailer. At this rate, not much is going to be left to the imagination when RIM officially unveils its devices come Wednesday — who likes surprises anyway, right?

    Update: We’ve updated the post to reflect that the phone was touted to us as “SIM-free,” specifically.

    Nokia Lumia 820 up for UK pre-order: free on contract or £380 sim-less, wireless charger thrown in

    Nokia Lumia 820 up for UK preorder free on contract, 380 simfree

    Carphone Warehouse is now taking pre-orders for the Nokia Lumia 820 handset, and there’s good news for the cash bereft — it’s free on contract, and the reseller will toss in a £45 wireless charging plate to boot. You can commit £29 per month to O2, Vodafone or Orange to avoid paying up front, or grab an unencumbered handset at £380 for the 4.3-inch Windows Phone 8 device in black, red or white. For that, you’ll get a 4G-capable smartphone with an 800 x 480 OLED screen, 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 1GB of RAM and 8-megapixel camera. The free extra offer will expire when shipping starts, so if the WP8 launch has you all charged up, hit the source.

    Windows Phone 8 handset UK availability and pricing detailed: free starting from £21 per month

    We’ve heard how Windows Phone 8 is all about you, and seen all the devices bearing the new OS at launch. What’s left, however, is where you can get one on the other side of the pond and, more importantly, how much it’s going to cost you. Nokia has separately announced that both the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820 will be launching in the UK (and France) later this week. More specifically, though, it looks like every UK carrier will be getting at least two handsets, with the almost-ready-to-launch EE getting both of HTC and Nokia’s handset pairs. We’ve got all the (current) pricing details and availability dates after the break.

    Nexus 4 priced at £390 by purported Carphone Warehouse in-store display placard

    Purported Nexus 4 instore display placards list price at 390 euros Carphone Warephone leak, l

    Oh, Carphone Warehouse — it just can’t seem to keep what it knows about the LG / Google Nexus 4 under lock and key. Just days after briefly listing the phone on its website, purported in-store displays for the yet unannounced device have leaked out to Android Authority. While essentially of the details are the same as what we saw last (1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 SoC, 8MP cam, 12-hour talk time rating, etc.), the listing reveals that the “sim-free” phone itself will sell for £390 (about $504) — previously we’d only seen the per-month pricing at £31, which is also found here. There’s no mention of that October 30th sale date this time, and it would seem unlikely now given that Google’s had to indefinitely postpone its NYC-based Android event for the 29th due to hurricane Sandy. For now, you can get more details from the source link below.

    UK Retailer Reveals Nexus 4 Ahead of Google Event

    UK mobile phone retailer Carphone Warehouse has just revealed the new Nexus 4 handset on its website, offering the phone up for pre-order well ahead of Google’s big launch event on October 29th. More »

    Nexus 4 appears early at Carphone Warehouse, October 30th release date

    Nexus 4 appears early at Carphone Warehouse, October 30th release date

    Whoa there! The next Nexus just got an early reveal over at UK retailer Carphone Warehouse. Delivery is currently pegged for October 30th and apparently it’s got brand new Android 4.2 (or Android 4.1.2 — the listing mixes in both). The preorder screen confirms plenty of details we’ve already heard, including that 4.7-inch 1,280 x 768 display, Snapdragon S4 processor and 8-megapixel camera. Unfortunately, at least according to the phone seller, there’s only 8GB of storage and no microSD card slot. Other curious parts include a “360-degree camera”, whatever that is, and an on-screen render that’s been previously been identified as a custom ROM. Diving into the supposed feature list, we’re intrigued to see whether “gesture typing” will form a part of Google’s new Android build — the Carphone Warehouse compares it to Swype‘s finger-dragging input method.

    Price-wise, it looks like you could get the handset for free on contracts over £31 per month, with both O2 and Vodafone named as prospective networks for the device in the UK — but no news here on whether the 4G-capable EE will offer an LTE iteration. Excited? Good, because we’re going to hear plenty more on this next week.

    Update: And the page has been pulled. Hopefully, to iron out some of those suspect features…

    Carphone Warehouse stocking Sony’s Xperia T, J and Tablet S for wannabe James Bonds

    Carphone Warehouse stocking Sony's Xperia T, J and Tablet S

    Given that James Bond himself is rocking Sony’s Xperia T as his handset of choice in Skyfall, it’s natural that wannabe Bonds will be clamoring for similar gear. Fortunately, Carphone Warehouse has announced that it’s stocking the T, Xperia J and Xperia Tablet S when they make their debut in the UK. The two smartphones will be arriving on the increasingly busy September 5th, while the Tablet S’s arrival date is still in the air, but we know it’ll cost you £330 for the WiFi or £430 for the 3G version.

    Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 arrives at the Carphone Warehouse

    GalNote

    Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10.1 is now available at the Carphone Warehouse for the stylus-toting multi-tasker in your life. The independent UK retailer is selling the 16GB, WiFi version for £400, while the edition equipped with a 3G modem retails for £500. While the latter can make calls, you won’t be holding the tablet to your ear to make ’em. Instead, the company thoughtfully included a Bluetooth-enabled S-Pen with a microphone and speaker, making you look a bit more like Maxwell Smart than Dom Joly.
