Just received my 32gb nexus 5x. its says 3gb Quartz on the box. Weird - Nexus 5X General

Hi guys,
Just received my 32GB quartz nexus 5x. Just noticed that it says 3GB (as in 3GB ram) on the box. Anyone else seeing this?
regards
Jacob

picture?

updated first post with picture

Must be a typo. Only thing I can think of.
EDIT: Check Settings and go to Memory near the bottom. Should only have 2GB installed.

Yep. First thing i did
Total memory 1.8GB

Could be a typo.
Or simply they have forgotten to remove the old label and put the new one. If you remember, the first rumors (from AndroidPolice, non the least of sources) said the 5x had 3gb of RAM. My feeling is that Google has decided to lift 1gb of RAM to 5x at the last to promote the premium quality of 6p

Are you in the UK?

True to sue them, maybe they will give you a unit with 3GB RAM

Six months down the line a new Nexus 5X+ will be released to trigger more sales and refresh the buzz and PR, this will come with 3GByte of RAM, OIS on the camera, and QI charging.
On my box, UK, Carbon black, it has GBR, rather than 3GB, might just be a simple typo, perhaps it should have always been GBR as in Great Britain, and when they set up the labeling someone get it wrong. Are all the 3GBs from people in the UK?

My 32GB Quartz from Carphone Warehouse (UK) also says 3GB. It isn't <_<

I'm from Denmark but did purchase it from Clove UK because its not released here yet and I'm impatient

I bought mine from Expansys (website based in England and which ships to France where presale aren't open yet) and it's also mentionned "3GB" on the box.
Curious to know what does it mean !

Since you're from the UK sounds like it might be:
3 - three.co.uk
GB - Great Britain
Though 3GB would be nice. I got my N5X and funny enough the LG G4s sells here at the same price but offer 2K Display / 3GB and sdcard with OIS.
Funny enough I bought it cause I'm not into big phones (my N4 with 4.7" is the maximum I like) and when putting the N5X against a LG G4 it's almost the same!

Same here for a 32Gb white 5X. Noticed it right after I got it from carphone warehouse in the UK.
System info says 1.8 total memory. Could be that they just forgot the 2 in 32Gb... either way, would be nice

2GB use less battery than 3GB and since it runs fine as is don't fret about it.

UK pricing - going up, not down!

Normally a few months after the initial surge of interest in a product dies down, the price tends to drop a little. However for some reason the Note 10.1 2014 seems to be going up if anything here in the UK, although in the States it does appear to be dropping.
The US price is now generally around $499 (plus tax) for the wi-fi model, while the UK price has gone up from under £400 a few months ago (£365 at John Lewis I gather) to nearer £450 most places.
Does anyone know what's going on, have Samsung UK increased their suggested price or something?

When I saw the UK prices, it really baulked me.
I wanted a tablet that not only worked on Wi-Fi, but 3G, 4G/LTE, but I couldn't get one, especially a 32Gb model, which I consider to be the basement model (I wouldn't even consider a 16Gb).
I nearly paid the extra for an Ipad, however I decided to do more research and in the end I imported one from HK and even when I paid the VAT on it, it came in significantly cheaper than some of the prices of the 16Gb, Wi-Fi model.
It's worth doing a little extra research and importing it yourself and get a better specified machine, at a lower price.
I could pick one up in the States next time I'm over there, but I'm a little wary of not having a proper international warranty as that caught me out once (thanks Samsung, so much for global corporations!).
16GB actually doesn't worry me as long as it has an SD card slot, much cheaper to put 64GB onto it that way than pay for a bigger base model. Well, upcoming stock KitKat stupidities notwithstanding anyway, but that won't be hard to fix.

Why buy a 16Gb one? You can get the 32Gb version quite easily over there, but the currency conversion made it more expensive to buy it from the US, also I used PayPal to pay for it, so I had a bit of protection too.
My SM-P605 has a 64Gb card in and I'm already running low on memory, so I only hope that the new SanDisk 128Gb card comes out soon at a reasonable price.
I think a few places had them on offer just before and after christmas. Got mine from John Lewis for £399 in mid jan, took ages to find somewhere with one in stock at that price. There were quite a few places charging (or trying to) over £500! I think about £450 was the average book price but so many places were out of stock, or were trying to sell the old one still at £399........
They want to sell the new Tab 10.1 at such a high price, that they had to raise that of the note, to keep people from going straight for a note instead.
Let's be honest. Samsung charging iPad+ prices for the Pro/Note series takes balls of steel. Android tablets are bought typically by bargain seekers unwilling to pay iPad prices and are typically 7-8" and under $250. One thing iPads have always provided was a certain cache and snob appeal; everyone knows what everyone else paid. With the Pro/Note's Samsung seems to be raising the snob appeal. With the 16GB iPad Air at 399 GBP whether Samsung prices at 375 GBP or 425 GBP it's still close enough that if people really considered a high-end Android tablet as an iPad alternative they'd still buy it. I don't think someone predisposed to an iPad would say "I'll buy the Samsung Tab|Pro because I'll save 50 GBP." How many people think a high-end Android tablet is an iPad alternative is a whole different discussion and will be proven by the success (or failure) of Samsung's strategy in offering the Pro/Note series in the first place.
The G-Tab 4 certainly is a step down in design and specs so perhaps Samsung's strategy is to make the 4's their volume seller (EG: BMW 3-series) and the Pro/Note's their margin leader (EG: BMW 7-series).
Apparently the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 will pack a 10.6″ (odd, right?) display of 1280×800 pixels resolution and will run on Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 processor, Adreno 305 GPU and 1.5GB of RAM. Other revealed specs are the 3MP rear and the 1.2MP front camera, 16GB internal storage (12GB actually available) and the latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS. Digging into the GFX Benchmark database you can also find the Galaxy Tab 4 8.0. It has absolutely the same specs but less screen estate.​
I got my 32gb LTE P605 from eBay for 465. Came from HK In 3 says. No customs charges. Flashed a OEM UK firmware and all is great.

And gave up your 2 year UK warranty in the process. Or you can ship it round trip to HK at your expense to have warranty repairs done there. Does Samsung UK even service grey market devices for a fee? Samsung U.S. won't. I had to ship my UK-purchased i9100 back to the UK for a cracked bezel. Caveat Emptor.
The guy I bought it from is a dealer. He will sort any warranty issues and is in the UK. I spoke to him before I bought it.

Got mine from HK too. Not rooted yet but soon will and once it's 0x1 the difficulty of a warranty claim becomes irrelavent.
It cost me £439 inc. import duty.
Got a bill from FedEx . Contacted the seller and he's refunded me already! What a quality seller!

Review from Android Authority

Android Authority just released there video review of the Mate 7, while they do decent reviews in a realistic way it says a lot when they gave him a "EDITOR'S CHOICE"
Nice review, this is gonna make it harder for me to choice which device i go for in 2 months from now. (Nexus 6, Note4, Mate 7)

Its a good review indeed and I'm pretty much on the same boat as you word er gek van!
The specs aren't that great compared to the note 4/nexus 6 tho.
The thing that I do like is the battery size.
I'm concerned about the software updates tho, Huawei doesn't have a good track record of that.

The specs are indeed not comparable with the Note 4 and the Nexus 6, but it comes very close to them (especially when you keep in mind it is 200$/euro cheaper) and in normal day to day usage you wouldn't notice the difference anyway because in speed, screen quality the difference is to small to notice. (If you dont compare them everyday)
But also my major concern of the Mate 7 is the official update support and rom development, because when i buy a new phone/renewal contract i keep the phone for 2 years.
And if they do the same trick as they did with the "Mate 2" it would be very disappointing, an update support for 24 months on a new device (Mate 7) would be in place if they want to compete against Samsung and Apple.
And second it comes to custom rom development....when do not update the phone in a proper way (or not what i had in mind) i want to be able to flash custom roms, and while there is ROM development on different Chinese forums, i am a bit skeptical if there going to be enough development on this XDA forum.
And i have not enough free time (Father, 3 kids ) that i can make my own roms they way i did in the past on my galaxy S1.
This is my vision at the moment.
I have not decided yet, my renewal is on the first week of januari 2015 so i have almost 2 months to look where the Mate 7 development is going to

Well, the review said it's 700 dollars. That ain't cheaper than a nexus 6. Pretty expensive for the hardware you get imo.
I'm still undecided, depends if the 3gb 32 gig version comes to The Netherlands.

499 euro in the netherlands for the 2gb/16gb version and 549 euro for the 3gb/32gb version, see link below
Note 4 is 700 euro and Nexus should be around (guessing) 650 euro?
The 3 versions in dutch webshop
So yeah, the price difference isn't that much (200-300euro) if you keep in mind that i use the phone 2 years.
So i hope that the mediamarkt or another phone shop is getting the Huawei on stock so i can see and try it out in my own eyes and hands :laugh:
Phonearena just did a comparison. I am disappointed with the camera tbh and was hoping for better quality but this is an area huawei are quite weak.

Thats a nice price for the 3gb version. Hopefully it will become available then. I'm not downgrading to a 2gb version, my note 3 has 3gigs of ram and it's always full.
Btw, on that site the nexus 6 32gb is listed as cheaper at 449 euro.

Good prize for the Gold in 3 Go of ram and 32 Go of memory but not in stock ... it's a real dual sim or only european 1 sim ?
What's happening with the warranty on this site and full compatible in Belgium with Base, Mobistar or Proximus ?
Hi all, and especially the Dutch posting here :highfive:
I've been considering this phone ever since I heard about it. I've got big hands and love the wideness of the Note 3. Most phones are long, but slim. The Mate7 is even a little bit wider, and has smaller bezels. Sounds perfect! That it doesn't have the best hardware doesn't bother me that much, if the batterylife is half of what it seems to be.
Has anyone gotten their hands on one of the Mate7's, preferably with 3GB RAM, and know how it's batterylife is doing? And if in Europe, where did you order yours? What would be a good shop?

The battery life is awesome, 4100 mHa! You can order the international version at Amazon DE France, for 2 GB RAM L09 version. We have sold units 3 GB RAM TL10 version to Holland and it works perfectly there.
Thanks for your reply! Do you know when the black 3GB version will be released? The gold doesn't really appeal to me. The live chat at liaow told me it could take a couple of weeks.

Our HUAWEI lady said not in a month or so. The silver version is running as limited production now. Really, the Gold looks very nice in hands, confirmed by several forum members (who also are our customers).
The Gold version is also OOS and the situation will last till Mid December. In this month, HUAWEI will deliver 1.4 M units to China Mobile, China TeleCom, and China UniCom. So the premium version, 3 GB ROM 32 GB RAM version, will be limited manufactured.
Glad to hear T-Mobile and AT&T LTE work on it..

For anyone from Czech Republic or neighbour states, for 16GB version use Amazon

Since Czech shops seem to offer only 8GB models (according to heureka.cz) I was pointed by some good guy on androidforum.cz to amazon page:
hxxp://xxx.amazon.co.uk/Motorola-Moto-Generation-SIM-Free-Smartphone/dp/B014KT0KWE/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1442086835&sr=8-4&keywords=moto+g+3rd+gen (sorry for cheating)
It cost me 6 670 CZK($264), so about 1670 CZK($65) plus for the extra 8GB and 1GB RAM, I say that is good.
According to answers on amazon page it should be Model XT1541, Single Sim, Black.
I will put off my gloriously great but old and slow Defy+ next week when this G should arrive.
Defy+ served very well and survived my rough use, and it will still by my chosen communication device for festivals and wild pub rides (I must add some kind of strap though).
If only she had another + update so she would have at least 1GB of RAM and maybe few another cores, it would be glorious yet again, but sadly it will probably never happen.
Everything changes, time to move on to the G!.
Can't wait for the Marshmallow.
Hi to all Moto G users and xda users!
If anyone looks for a 2GB variant in Poland, x-kom sells it for ~1000PLN.

Honor 8 announced in Europe for €399/£369.99

I was surprised nobody has posted this yet... The new honor 8 was announced in Europe at a launch event in Paris today, for €399 (£369.99 in Britain - yes that's a rip off, approximately $490)
The first thing that shocked me was that its price exceeds that of the OnePlus 3 (£329) even though the OP3 boasts a better chipset, better UI and considerably more RAM, secondly Honor seems to fancy ripping us Brits off while in the US both devices are on sale for $399.
I have made my choice and already ordered my OP3
One of the biggest phone supplier here in Lithuania promised to sell starting from 270 euros. We'll see...
Shocked at the UK price, was hoping that the 64gb would be around that and the 32gb around £310, then we didn't even get the 64gb!

It's shocking, especially as the US gets it for £300... Estimates I saw suggested it would start at £225 long prior to its release, so much for that...

I saw blue 64gb in some russian eshop but I don`t know if it was official distributon. Here in czech rep. will be 64gb only gold for approx. 430€.
Vmall EU's customer service is almost as shocking as the price for the UK. I get that Honor is a rising brand but the justification to put up the price by £120 from the Honor 7 doesn't make sense.
I got fed up being messed around by VMall and cancelled my order and bought an OP3 just like the original poster.
I'm just wondering is there a way to get the phone from the likes of Oppomart and then flash a EU ROM? As the phone can be had for way less.
Got it for ~385€ in Czech Republic.

I'm really tempted to get this phone after being somewhat underwhelmed by Pixel XL. Is MiFavor decent at all, does it have any theming options? Can you use Substratum on it? I really hope for CM13 and all of the other custom Roms on top of course but is it all or nothing in your guys opinions? Cheers

I had the Axon 7 like 2 months ago then sold it and got a Oneplus 3, and have the Galaxy s7 edge as a backup. So then sold the Oneplus 3 it was a beautiful phone, but it was a second hand so had some scratches on the screen and it was bothering. So anyway went back to the GS7 Edge and that phone is I have it already 5 months still cant get used to the edges, they are very uncomfortable no matter in which case i use with it. So decided that in my opinion the Axon 7 was the best. With its ergonomics speed and everything.
It has the best speakers, headphone sound, software its smooth also no bugs that bother me. Mostly its stock Android with little added features. Money doesn't matter for me if i want i can get any phone. Didn't like the Pixels thats Google becoming Apple making a walled garden soon. Im running stock no root or anything the Axon 7 is like Htc M8 perfected . This should have been instead of HTC 10 . Stupid HTC. The camera is very good beautiful sharp pictures compared to Gs7edge which makes the pictures face like painting. And is better the Oneplus 3 in my opinion. Anyway sorry for the long story, but its the best phone for me now. Buy and enjoy.

axon got best audio quality but louder headphone output got us version. htc 10 dosen't have this problem and got better camera. pixel - waste money but if you don't care about audio and camera and need latest software update - go in
Nexues was supposed to get the latest updates. That's bull****. Look at all the Nexuses 6p, 5x and all before it all good phones but not the latest updates. So Google is not even providing updates of its phones and we blame the other manufacturers.

I'm also very interested in this phone, so i just bought it from Amazon...
But one thing is very weird, yesterday the phone cost 500 euros, today it cost only 248 euros (grey version only, the dark version cost 484 euros).
So i ordered it, but i was just wondering is it normal that the prices are like roller-coster ?? It's an import from Germany, i live in France. I just hope that it's not a scam...
Where did you guys who live in Europe bought it ?
I bought it from amazon. de for 449 â?¬. I think you can't get it for 250 it must be a scam or you are looking at axon mini. I live in Slovenia and the phone is top noch. Yuo should buy it from official amazon. de and not resellers...

Thanks ! i just cancelled my order on Amazon.fr and ordered it on Amazon.de... Can't wait to get it, it looks really really nice ! And from what i heard, stereo speakers are great ? That's what is missing from my current S7 Edge...

What're did you get it for €250. Not possible i don't think. I bought mine from amazon uk and was advertised as the 6gb 128gb model so jumped at it paid £470 around €530 i think it was at the time . Got Sent the 4gb 64gb version and seller says he never advertised the 6gb version. Why would i buy the same phone for more money from him? ****!! €449 on amazon.de and .fr and all deliver quickly.
Lucky i had screenshot to send to amazon of the actual phone i ordered. Some dodgy sellers on there as well.
