Dont take to long....G4 be out soon

Does someone know if the Nexus 6 will be available to order in Google Play here in Ireland someday, even it takes months? Or should I just forget waiting and order somewhere else?

I know that there are other places to order, but it'll be a pain in the ass...
Argus doesn't have in stock.
Amazon has some warranty issues. If there is any problem, must send to origin country (UK, Germany, etc)

So, I prefer to buy at Google Play but is it worth waiting (if it will be available someday)?

Never had any problems with replacing faulty products with Argos UK. They send the replacement within a week and you just need to return the faulty item. They send you prepaid labels or return full postage. The only thing is that you have to buy from Amazon not from their partners.
I'm actually thinking about getting Nexus 6 from Amazon DE. Do they send to Ireland or would I need to go through Mailboxde.com?

They send to Ireland.
I've bought my simfree S4 in Amazon UK, but from one partner. I had a battery problem and it had to be replaced. I tried to have it fixed here in Ireland, but the S4 I've received was built in Taiwan, so no warranty in Europe. I had to send it back to them and after 2 or 3 weeks I've received a new one, but from Vodafone unlocked but with all junk apps from Vodafone. And this new one had the same battery problem.
After that I made a promise to myself to never buy a smartphone in amazon again.

G4….....YES!

anyone have problems with hangouts as in the contact names not displaying when ya get a text only number showing not the name only despite having the name in the contacts

McDermotX · 06-03-2015 6:00pm

Well....bang goes the Nexus !
The reported weak adhesive issue on the back cover has shown itself on my one a few months down the line.....thought I was free and clear of it as it was most widely reported just after it hit the market with fresh devices, but not so in my particular case.
Shame....there are ways around it apparently, but this one will be going straight back to Amazon/Motorola.

Small update on this (relevant if purchasing from Amazon.de) :

Motorola UK+IRE don't want to be handling this - not to say they wouldn't if pushed in the end, but because the Nexus 6 is not released in Ireland, they believe the responsibility is with retail (and if that was a dead-end, then they could discuss an arrangement).
Amazon contacted Motorola Germany on my behalf, and they were also of the position of not being willing to entertain an RMA process outside of Germany.
Amazon gladly accepted ownership of the issue, and have already shipped out a replacement device (even ahead of receiving back the faulty unit).

Can't really argue with that kind of service.

Good to hear you got sorted in the end, maybe Motorola didn't want to sort you because you got it in Germany, which still isnt right on don't think anyway,

Your contract is with the vendor, not the manufacturer. As long as Amazon.de (or whoever you purchased from) looks after you, that's fine.

moggser · 12-03-2015 2:27pm

I never approached carphone whore house with my prob went straight to organ grinder and sorted

Tah,
From the conversation, I'd suspect Motorola UK would indeed take ownership if Amazon etc were not forthcoming or pushing it back to the manufacturer, but for whatever reason, probably procedure, they wanted me to explore the retailer end.
Never talked with Motorola Germany, as Amazon.de done that end of things, but their reluctance was probably for a similar reason so Amazon obviously felt it was easier on everyone to handle it themselves, and they'll deal with the manufacturer directly.

Any links to sites which show the issue in pictures?

Thanks,

moggser · 12-03-2015 10:17pm

My issue?? Mine was battery drain issue, maybe mc dermot might have one of his problem

McDermotX · 13-03-2015 12:27am

Not a pic of mine, but it's almost exactly the same in appearance. Cover basically coming away from the midway portion of the sides, closer inspection looks like it's not just a weak adhesive issue, which was the initial suspicion, but in some cases it looks as if the battery is bulging slightly, deforming the rounded design.
It's not a 'common' issue as such, but it was reported in most launch areas before and after Christmas (Nexus 6 back cover into Google will show a few links). Some new ones straight out of the box even showed the beginnings of the problem. Motorola acknowledged the problem fairly rapidly, and replaced units, citing that only a small number were affected.
The fact that this is over 3 months down the line is a bit worrying, but it could be a once off. If you keep the phone in case, it might be worth just popping it out to have a look for any signs of an issue.

That's why I'm so reluctant to buy my Nexus 6 in Amazon.de. It'd be the best choice considering price, but this possibly warranty "problem" is driving me nuts..

Does anyone have any idea when (and if) the Nexus 6 will be available here in Ireland?
