    https://www.google.com.au/nexus/5/

    nexus 5 is only $399 from google.

    • PissLUR on 16/02/2014 - 21:03

      +$20 for shipping.

      HN are selling the Nexus 5 for $549. Not sure that was for 16GB or 32GB. This really highlights what a rip off HN are.

      • SBOB on 16/02/2014 - 21:18

        or how little (e.g. no) margin google make selling the phone?
        hypothetically…if the buy price of the phone for havreys is also $399, what would an acceptable selling price in your mind be?

          In what hypothetical world do large retailers buy at RRP?

          In the world where google doesn't sell nexus devices to make a profit…

          I don't know why Harvey bothers selling the nexus, but they do pay pretty much Google's selling price as their buy price… (which still makes their mark up rather large though)

      Didn't even realise! The research i did was just on the nexus 4 price only. For that price, i'd probably even go for the nexus 5 myself! Haha. Good to see its started a nice little debate on here! :-) I'll cop this one on the chin! :-P

      • unity1 on 16/02/2014 - 21:49

        No, HN have to cop it on the chin. Simple message is if you want good value on a Nexus phone don't buy it from HN.

        • grunge on 16/02/2014 - 23:02

          "No, HN have to cop it on the chin. Simple message is if you want good value on most things don't buy it from HN."

          Fixed.

    • gunnny on 17/02/2014 - 06:33

      Sorry I did not realise it was not the 5. I already have the nexus 4. Lol.

  • strangeloops66 on 16/02/2014 - 21:04

    Personally, the Nexus 5 for $50 more is worth it.

  • zelda707 on 16/02/2014 - 21:06
    +8

    used to be $299 on google play, might as well pay the extra $70 for the 5

    • Look43Bs on 16/02/2014 - 21:09

      I definitely agree … and NOT a great deal!!!

  • robs12 on 16/02/2014 - 21:08

    Google were selling them for $299…?

    • strangeloops66 on 16/02/2014 - 21:09
      +1

      Yep, for a while there, just before the 5 came out. $249 for the 4 8GB.

    • bargainerftw on 16/02/2014 - 21:10

      Yeah they were $299 + $30~ shipping before they got replaced by the Nexus 5.

      I have one of these and let me tell you, I love everything about the Nexus 4 except the battery. The battery is insanely bad, the Nexus 5 didn't improve that much on battery either.

      • robs12 on 16/02/2014 - 21:13

        Yes I know, I got a couple when Google reduced them myself - just wondering how this is a bargain for $50 more..?

      • dmac80 on 16/02/2014 - 21:45

        I actually liked my Nexus 4 better than the 5, EXCEPT for the battery in the 4 which is absolutely horrible. I thought the design, size and feel of the 4 was better. Oh, and the battery in the 4 is absolutely horrible too.

    • mathew42 on 16/02/2014 - 22:31

      yes but it is out of stock. Having said that it is a great phone.

      I'm surprised that nobody has down voted this deal, so I'm going to do that just so people are aware it is poor deal.

    "The future of smartphones is here"- more like the past, superseded model, over a year old.

  • leonheart1 on 16/02/2014 - 21:14

    I just got a replacement one from Google, I'll gladly sell it to you for $348!

    • Do I NeedThis on 17/02/2014 - 00:11

      how did you got a replacement ? was it under warranty and they replaced it because it was faulty?

      • leonheart1 on 26/03/2014 - 21:24

        Yup, barely though, by a month. The button was somewhat non-responsive so they sent me a new one and had me hand my old one in to a courier.

    • oringal on 16/02/2014 - 21:26

      try upgrading the software, it should fix those problems. If not, you should probably ask google support.

    • dmac80 on 16/02/2014 - 21:47
      +2

      Have you actually called Google about it? They have a great warranty service they'll send you out a new phone and you just have to send in the faulty one. I had a Nexus 4 and had no problems with random shut downs. Battery life is generally an issue though.

  • congo on 16/02/2014 - 21:25

    Might as well get a nexus 5, at that price.

  • Ronnnie on 16/02/2014 - 21:37

    I don't think this is a very good deal. That's just my opinion though, and I'm sure many would disagree. Reason -too close in price to nexus 5..

  • zeroxp on 16/02/2014 - 22:44

    Nexus…4?!

  • Jackson on 16/02/2014 - 22:59

    I love how 10 different people have mentioned the price is too close to the nexus 5, can't they just uupvote the first guys comment and leave it at that?

  • pmupsinep on 16/02/2014 - 22:59

    They're selling Nexus3 for $348 and Nexus2 for $347. Great bargains.

  • miq on 16/02/2014 - 23:42

    Very poor deal. Nexus 5 at $50 more is far better value than these notorious ripoff merchants.

  • aussman on 16/02/2014 - 23:45

    overpriced old tech

  • coolsteps on 16/02/2014 - 23:46

    if you buy the nexus 5 does anyone know if it processed as overseas purchase thus you get charged foreign currency fees even though its in AUD? where is it send from? is it pte Singapore?

    • PissLUR on 16/02/2014 - 23:56

      depends on your bank.

      HSBC and ANZ charges the international transaction fee for overseas merchants. Westpac and CBA don't.

  • lostn on 17/02/2014 - 00:12

    Is it possible to install the Samsung S4 ROM on this? (And have all features work).

  • lostn on 17/02/2014 - 00:56

    Even for $100 extra it would be a worthwhile upgrade to get the Nexus 5 instead. The processor is much faster, and the screen is 1080p.

  • BlazinPast on 17/02/2014 - 01:43

    As mentioned above, an upgrade to Nexus 5 is a much better investment.

  • coolsteps on 17/02/2014 - 03:52

    got the nexus 5 from singarpore. however it would not accept the amex as a payment. anyone else have this issue?ended up paying with a westpac visa card. hope i wont get charged any handling fees for processing it since its an overseas merchant?

  • Rizz on 17/02/2014 - 08:55

    Nexus 4, not worth at this price. Should go for Nexus 5

  • jinxsphinx on 18/03/2014 - 09:25

    Can you still get nexus 4 anywhere for $299?
