Nokia 7 Plus €399

Interrobang · 09-05-2018 09:19PM

Has anyone noticed an ever so slight shadow at the bottom of their screen? When I'm in any full white screen (like the Settings menu, for example) the top border is lovely and crisp, but the bottom one has a *very* slight gradation to it. It's barely perceptible, but it's there all the same.

Read that too however it kept saying to enter a valid postcode with my Eircode not being accepted so used PM.

Try entering your Eircode in lowercase if it failed in capitals or vice versa.
This has worked in other forms for some people.

Don't think I can try it again given it takes my IMEI code and accepted my PM address. As long as I get it I'll be happy lol

Bought mine from the unlocked mobiles crowd in the UK and it arrived yesterday, nice impressive unit and seems to function well. It also came with a set of Nokia Boom headphones.

Its model number is the TA-1046 - and it seems to be dual sim, though i haven't checked it yet. It does have two IMEI's when you query the IMEI number. Which leads me to the issue i have....

Tried to enter the IMEI (for both) into the Nokia Google Home mini page, when i click Validate it says its not eligible. Anyone else see anything similar ?

You are supposed to use IMEI 1 for redemption purposes.
Maybe the seller needs to register the IMEI with Nokia, that it was sold to UK/IE. Try talking to chat and see what they say.

My fear is that the 1046's are actually Asian stock, so you won't be allowed to redeem. I have one on the way from eglobal myself, so I'll probably find myself in the same situation

No stock in Liffey valley or dundrum this morning. They had only got 2 in Liffey valley. Not great amounts of stock to be carrying is it?

Why are ye using Parcel Motel and Parcel Wizard? The free Google Mini promotion allows for delivery to an address in Ireland.

Opened your link ,can't find the Nokia IMEI registering part, definitely not opening for that specific part for me

That's the link to the T&Cs.

The page I used to claim is this one, and I had no problem entering an Irish Eircode after I got the on-screen confirmation that the IMEI I entered qualified for the promotion: https://www.nokia.com/en_gb/phones/googlehomemini

Buy online,they're as quick, delivery to store of your choice

Yggr of Asgard · 10-05-2018 07:19PM

Plus if you purchase online with delivery to store you are covered by the 14 day return policy in case you change your mind or you get sim locked one (because there is a chance that the new shipment is sim locked).

The reps confirmed on a different thread that they aren't locked thankfully.

Yggr of Asgard · 10-05-2018 07:51PM

There is no guarantee that it will stay that way with future devices once the initial shipment is sold.

Hence ordering online just in case is the better option.

Yeah I got mine from Amazon. De. Not valid IMEI message too. Don't know if it's because of dual SIM or what. Thought I bought from Amazon or Nokia?
Can't see from t&c why it's ineligible.

Wouldn't take that to seriously. First two batches normally sim free to get them out after that they are locked. CPW have a mix of locked and sim free devices. I've discussed this here before how to go about getting a sim free device from CPW.

Possibly because the phones have to be bought from UK or Irish retailers?

Mine was bought from a well known UK based retailer - Unlocked Mobiles - but i guess the issue is where they get their stock from. Either way - the T&C's have been met - bought in Ire or UK - so it should be eligible. I emailed them yesterday to query this but no response yet.

Ok - ignore the last post - just got a response and because they had stock before UK/Ire its not included in the offer. Hence i got a set of Nokia Boom headphones bundled instead. So now i know.

StereoSound · 11-05-2018 08:18AM

If the Nokia 7 is €319 unlocked from Vodafone then I'd get one ASAP. That will probably change. It's a cheap phone jf you can put your Eir or Three sim into it.

Thanks for the info!
Guess I can expect similar from my one coming from HK!

I returned an Echo dot, as I thought I'd be getting a home mini soon! :pac:
They are currently £39 on the UK google site, if anyone wants to get one separately

I'm interested in knowing how you can do this. Tried a search on your posts but to be honest it must be buried in a thread somewhere as I couldn't find it.

Any chance you can impart that info again please? It would be most useful to know.. Thanks in advance!

Yggr of Asgard · 11-05-2018 11:58AM

Has someone found the sweet spot for NFC with this phone?

I don't seam to get NFC working with any card or apps but its on, so I wonder where you best match up the sensors.

Did you get any email after confirming details? I don't seem to have but I did get the Nokia news/updates subscription one after filling in details.

donnacha · 11-05-2018 02:02PM

In case other are still hunting for a store with stock in Dublin. Blackrock had none and Nutgrove only had the one which I bought.

No, no confirmation email. I suppose it's just a waiting game now, to see if or when it arrives.

jimmynokia · 11-05-2018 06:23PM

Voda LV out of stock till tuesday

breeno · 11-05-2018 07:30PM

I spoke to Nokia support on live chat and they weren't able to offer much help of the Google home mini front. Said its a third party who are looking after the offer and Nokia have no control over or idea of a delivery date.

I wonder if they'll just wait until the offer expires and issue them all at once.
