Pixel C not on the Google Store anymore... - Pixel C General

Checked yesterday Pixel C was no longer on the Google Store in Canada.
I heard of no rumours about a new model, and yes I still like tablets and hope for an update.

I just checked the US store. The only model available is the 64GB version for $599. I think it's been like that for a while.
The Pixel C Keyboard (magnetic) is going for $99, normally $149. The Folio keyboard is still out of stock.

In Holland i have bought it today

Got one in UK recently. They 64 GB model is now with a £75 discount on the Google Play Store in UK

pixel c sales end at google store
i read a short news clip about google ending pixel c sales. took a look at the store and they are no longer listed.
anyone heard of a new tablet coming later this year?

I bought the Pixel C when released. On bootup, now, the screen is basically unreadably dim. It responds to touch and is working but the screen doesn't turn on completely. It's been going out for the past two months.
I think I'm putting my money into a Surface Pro and using it more like a tablet. That is, since there's nothing on the horizon about a new Google tablet.

If Google does not come out with a new Pixel... what would be a good tablet to buy, wanting to remain with Android? I have a very old Samsung, which was my mom's but it's slow as hell, almost unusable.

Huawei MediaPad M3 if the size is OK for you :
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Huawei-MediaPad-32GB-Silver-tablet/dp/B01L27OXF2
I've read many good reviews about this one, and sometimes you see lower prices on amazon.
Or Samsung Galaxy Tab S3, but it's expensive.

My bought at launch Pixel C screen stopped coming on. I use it mainly for Sonos, news, browsing, ...
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8 inch. I'm happy with the purchase. If it didn't have physical buttons I'd really love it. I think that would make it a perfect little tablet. It's 1.5 years old but still speedier than the Pixel C. It won't get updates, but I don't mind that.

Just got an email and once again it's a delay:
Thank you for your recent order at BestBuy.ca! We just wanted to inform you that your pre-order item(s) is currently awaiting the release date. You will receive a Shipment Notice email as soon as inventory is ready.
This order contains:

This is the 5th delay!
I bought 2 today at the source in Cambridge.

I just ordered from Staples and will deliver tomorrow.
I don't know why bestbuy doesn't has it. I ordered the Tab at BB back in July as pre-order.
Yeah, Future Shop and Best Buy have screwed the pooch on this. I just bought mine yesterday from The Source. I hear Staples also has them (try calling them). I bought mine in store (guy had to bring it out from the back so make sure you ask). You can check in store availability online at thesource.ca.
Once the first delay happened I just crossed the border and bought mine in the U.S.
I'm glad I did.

Me too, especially since the 32Gb model isn't coming here at all, it seems. And they're all "Emasculating White" as well.
Picked mine up at Staples in Vancouver a week ago, super nice, feels awesome in-hand in portrait and landscape, already looking forward to next years quad-core and inevitably higher res model.

Too funny, I would have preferred a "Super Manly" coloured back panel as well, fortunately I'm always looking at the screen with it's dark and ominous background picture
I bought mine from Staples two days ago. I'm not using any case, and it feels great in hands. However I bought the Samsung Book case from the Source today. It's a nice case but too expensive ($65+tax). Going to a meeting next week, and don't want to walk around with a flashy GT without a case.
Mine just arrived yesterday, ordered from ncix.com on Wednesday.
Anyone else found we don't have access to the 3.2/Touchwiz UX update yet?
they are in canada. The odd thing though, they seem to be a lot different from the US model.
Also, they haven't appeared to have brought the 32gb version or the metallic grey.
I use mine in canada, but bought the 32gb grey model from best buy in the US so i could have faster updates and the US apps and what not.
Samsung Bookcase $54.99 TheSource !
The Samsung Bookcase for the GT 10.1 is on sale until August 31st at TheSource,. Check the back of this week's flyer )on-line flyer) as website is not showing the sale price.
Other accessories listed at the Source are mobile charger and home charge (also on sale).
Now Available Best Buy/Future Shop

Best Buy showing GT as available as of: Release Date:08/25/2011
Order Online:
Temporarily Out of Stock: usually ships in 6-7 business days. 94 units available for back order. Limited Quantities available.
Black model listed.
Future Shop showing as being available in-store (back order online)
If you want the white back then go to Staples or The Source (touchwiz installed).
At least the Source is carrying a case. What's missing though is the usb connection kit. I am hoping that shows up soon or I'll buy off ebay. Tigerdirect.ca was showing 32gb models in stock as a combo with the docking port for $680, but I was a bit skeptical. I asked their online sales guys and they confirmed it was in stock. I thought it was a mistake they posted this on their canadian website and sure enough, 2 days later there is no mention at all of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 on the Tigerdirect.ca website. I really like my Tablet, but I would rather spend $100 more and have double the storage capacity since the device is already 'expansion neutered'. The Canadian market is being manipulated for some reason, did other non-us regions get only 16gb as well? I was considering the Toshiba Thrive, but that tablet has bad screen ghosting like the Xoom. It's also kinda ugly... but then it has all the ports you could want... The bad thing about all these android tablets is the lack of accessories carried in the stores.. I mean, how can you launch the Galaxy Tab in Canada and stores like staples don't even have 1 accessory for it. They don't even have accessories for the Transformer (their stock case is horrible btw)....
Rob
How is text entry on forums like this one and redflagdeals with the 10.1?
I returned a transformer as it was rather poor thought I'd have to wait for Tegra 3?

These units should come with touchwiz already installed. Is 3.2 even available at all from Samsung?
Rob
After having checked, it does look like I have touchwiz, but not 3.2.
I have seen them at The Source in Square One mall in Mississauga. I was looking for the book case but they were sold out. The Best Buy's I've checked have the display material out but not the actual tabs, the salesguys all say it got delayed. Weird.

Supply seems to be rather limited at the moment. Both of the staples stores here in Regina only got 2 each. We have 4 Source stores and they seemed to only get 2 in each as well. I really like the tablet, but I'm still annoyed by the lack of accessories (no one has usb adapters) and not having the 32gb model available.

It's fine as long as you disable auto correction and auto completion in Swype. Also Swype seems to be more prone to sluggish text entry than the stock keyboard. And Google Instant Search appears to slow things down, so disable that.

Tab 2 7.0 price dropping below $199... new one coming out or in response to Nexus 7?

I noticed some merchants have the Tab 2 7.0 price dropping below $199...
(as shown on Google Shopping search results)
Is this because a new one(Tab 3 7.0) is coming out
or is this in response to Nexus 7? Or both?

nevermind... I was wrong... can't seem to find any Tab 2 7.0
being discounted at all... are are still the same price as before.
(at least at the normal reputable retailers)
Question already answered...
Microcenter had them for $199.99 (P3113). I picked one up last Saturday. Now I can't find even one at any location.
Yeah, I picked up this tablet at Microcenter. I was actually very fortunate, because I went to Fry's first and they didn't have it. So I called Microcenter and they happened to be selling it on $199 and they had 180ish in stock. I love the tablet very much and my father seemed as well, so I went and got him another one two weeks later. They only had a few in stock though.
I don't think they are going down in price. Microcenter was the only well-known store I saw selling it on a discount ,and it was only because it's on sale right now Actually the sale seems to have extended another two weeks, but it seems to be selling regular price everywhere else. There are other places under Google>Shopping selling it for cheaper too, but it depends on if you feel comfortable shopping somewhere without much of a reputation...
Microcenter will discount things other retailers won't for short periods of time. Usually you have to be in the right place, at the right time, or be willing to take a chance and drive to one quickly when you here they have a special. Store stock on their web site means little as they can sell 50 in an hour if it hits the net that one store "has stock" of whatever specials they offer.
I like the fact that Tab 2 has an SD slot, but with the ability to use an OTB USB cable with the 7, this becomes less of an issue.
My Tab 2 died yesterday. It will be on it's way back to Samsung for repair. Let's see how this goes...If I had it to do all over again, I would have skipped the Tab 2 for the 7 even if they were the same price.
For folks who live near Expo Electronics in New Jersey.... I bought two from them for $205+tax last week. $5 more than MicroCenter's $199, but I don't have any MicroCenters near me.

Pixel UK Discussion

Evening,
I've pre-ordered the Pixel 128gb in Quite Black (the blue wasn't available--waaah!) and an XL to test which is best for me. Estimated delivery 24-26th Oct.
How about you?
i preordered the 32gb in black, Oct 24, 2016 – Oct 26
i think i read somewhere blue is exclusive to the US
up on CPW with £50 play voucher and shipping by 20th! Damn you El goog
https://www.carphonewarehouse.com/google/pixel.html#!colour=silver&capacity=32GB&dealType=pm
Contracts are a bit steep!
Way way too expensive for me. :crying:
Looks like it will be the one plus 3 for me.
I'm still on my M7 which I bought for £480 when it was new.
So yeaaaah I was not prepared for these prices.
I'd probably pay £550 for a 128GB, 5" Pixel. But that's a full £150 less than what it currently is. I can't justify that, no way.
Guess I'll wait.

M7 here too. Really had my hopes up when rumours of an HTC Nexus started. Now the Pixel is here I can't justify the cost. There's nothing extraordinary and the real killer for me is the software update support hasn't been changed from the Nexus.
I pre ordered the Pixel 32gb then cancelled the order when my sanity kicked back in. I'm just going to keep my Nexus 6P for another year. I can live without google assistant and the pixel launcher. That being said I am really excited to see what google does with the pixel brand.
I ordered the Pixel 128GB in black from CPW - tried to order on the Google Store, but it broke (clicked to confirm purchase and it just looked at me like a demented labrador). Same price as a ludicrously expensive iPhone 7, but I wanted a 'pure android' phone with the latest updates, enough storage and wanted it to fit comfortably in my pocket - so either pay silly money or compromise on one of my three requirements.
Website initially indicated delivery date of October 20th, but showed October 21st when I ordered. Presumably at these prices there won't be the long waiting lists that there were for the 6P and the 5.
I was very disappointed to see that the pricing is inline with the Apple iPhone 7. Weird, as previous Google phones (Nexus) were priced considerably much lower. I wonder where the spike in price has come from? Google trying to be as greedy as Apple?

Massive price difference compared to the new Google Pixel!

This is XDA, I am sure your 6P will be able to get the Pixel Launcher and or Assistant. If you root it, in time you'll probably get the same Pixel experience on your 6P.
So So disappointed with the pixel phones and their prices, what was Google thinking?
Mine's on order from CPW. Delivery for 20th October. It was expensive but I figured if I didn't order it, every day I would waste time thinking about ordering it. I was like this with the Moto Z; ordered it, and then sent it back.
Thinking now though...would the Moto Z be a better phone in the end...hmmmm
I may have accidentally ordered one (Black 128GB) direct from the Google Store as I'm thinking the customer services will be better based on past experience if I get any problems.
I was torn between the Pixel and Pixel XL. Given I have a 6P the XL would have been the natural choice, however I don't think I can justify the extra cost (hard enough to justify as it is). Plenty of time to cancel/change my mind though
Same here @Azarin. 128gb in black.
The XL price was just a stretch too far, plus, I only have small hands
Ordered from Google, IMO the customer support is better than CPW. I have sent things back to google in the past without issue.
Soon I will be retiring my Honor 5x (which was a standby phone after my MotoX Style broke, and they couldn't repair it...long story..)
I've been hanging on to my HTC One M8 waiting on the new phones to be announced. The price is quite steep but is compounded by the raw deal for UK purchases.
The Pixel is 650 USD in the US which is just under 510GBP. In the US you get the DayDream Viewer chucked in as a sweetener - but not in the UK. If you want to buy that (once available) its an additional 69 GBP
So, UK price for the pack is 668GBP v 510 GBP for the same in the US......which seems to be completely taking the p!ss - 30% dearer...
I'm wondering if I should sensibly look at something else - Oneplus 3??

Op3 tempting but bigger than I really want.
I've pre-ordered on EE with an early upgrade, only a few days early.
Will this phone have loads of **** installed from EE or will this be just a google phone?
I hate it when carriers put their **** on it!

Best Reason to NOT Get a Pixel!

Looks like I will be going with the S7. Why?
Well the reviews of the Pixel sound great! But I cannot find it ANYWHERE.
I can find some hanging around Verizon and Best Buy, but everyone only has the 32 GB version. For a phone that has no expandable memory option, youd think they would make the 128GB version available somewhere? If it is, Id love for someone to clue me in because I sure cant find it!

I bought mine via Telus in Canada. I had to order it online because stores don't carry it, but it only took a week to arrive so I was very happy with that. I'm like you, I would be okay with 32gb today, but what about a years from now, or two years down the road, how much of that 32gb will actually be useable after Android 9 gets installed.
Does Verizon have the 128GB Pixel with free 2 day shipping? It seemed to be that way when I looked. Verizon was also showing a select phone list that included 50% off a second phone, which included the Pixel. I'm not exactly sure what the terms are, but it looked like they were reducing the retail price of the second phone on a payment plan. It also seems the $300 in account credits over two years for a $1 phone trade is also still available. Otherwise, it looks like the Google Store is showing the 128GB black in a couple weeks. I don't know if there are any phones set aside for quicker Google Fi orders.
When I called Verizon they said the only thing they had in store was 32GB but perhaps it can be ordered via the website.
However the Verizon rep I spoke to said that corporate Verizon stores will not sell it without a Verizon plan - and I was looking to purchase for use on AT&T.
If I was paying for service direct from AT&T, I'd personally go with a certified AT&T device, in order to get things like HD Voice. I don't think Google has paid to certify the device on AT&T, so I don't think you would get items like HD Voice with the Pixel. Anyway, if you want 128GB and don't want wireless service the only option is direct from Google, and they were showing a shipping date of November 22 on the black phone this morning.
I ordered the Verizon 128gb Pixel last Friday and paid to have it over nighted to me. I got it Saturday morning.

Can anyone who ordered this phone through Verizon advise whether and how they did so without taking out a Verizon plan?
I went to order it online but couldnt find a way to just buy the phone without needing a Verizon plan alongside?

Google Pixel 2/2 XL Discussion Thread (Hong Kong)

Dear All,
Since the Pixel 2/2 XL is not officially released in Hong Kong. Where are you ordering the 2/2 XL? Anyone already have a grey market 2/2 XL already? Any thoughts would be appreciated. I ordered mine from UK Google Store. I have family that can bring it over when it arrives in UK. My order is scheduled for 28-29 Nov ship out to UK address.
Enjoy your Pixel.
I just got a update from Google and my order had been bumped up from 28-29 Nov shipment to 21-23 Nov shipment.
good for you.
I couldn't wait and ordered from the us store, been using it for two weeks, so far so good. The only thing the UK one is better is because of the three pin plug.
I have seen some resale of 2xl online at prixx.xxx.hk, which are more than $10000. I certainly won't buy from them
The one I bought from the us Google store is only us$949, without tax, and can be shipped to Hong Kong by some mail forwarding company within 5-6 days after they receive the phone from Google, at a price of only hk$48. This is considerably cheaper than ordering from the UK store which charges a lot for tax
Hey so I found a group of people in a Chinese forum that have discovered a way to enable diag mode on the pixel 2 XL. Would any of you be able to translate for me or inquire about what steps they took?

That's great. HK Google Store won't sell it so we have to order from overseas Google Store. Mainly the plug that's why I ordered from UK. They ship date got bumped up so I'll get in sooner. VAT was the bad part. Oh well...I just hope the bugs can be ironed out with this batch.
US$949 = HK$7400
£899 = HK$9200
That's $1800 difference. You can buy almost 6 plugs from the UK store

Great to hear no major problems. Smooth as iPhone? In Android world, smooth and lag free compared to 6P. I'm coming from 6P and it stutters and lags every so slightly even after two years but better then Samsung.

There is a reference in the Chinese forum to a QQ group where they have posted the necessary files for the pixel 2xl. I don't know any madarin so I have no idea how to locate or join that group.
Anybody but from MK shops? What are they going for compared to Google Store?

That is for Pixel XL first generation and they built a bootloader based on NOF27C which is Pixel XL 1st gen...
And I didn't find out the link to 2nd gen XL diag mode yet...
How about create a telegram group?

If you read the entire thread you'll see that they reference a build for the pixel 2 and 2xl and specifically state that they were going to NOT post it in the forums but that it's available in the group. I can highlight the page if you need.
Also it's not a bootloader it's a source built rom with the -eng and -diag tags forced during build.
