That right there is a strawberry lollipop. Ohh, and the new Nexus 6 and 9 too! Both of these stunners are coming to O2 Refresh soon and you can register here for updates > https://www.o2.co.uk/getupdates

So what can you expect from these new Nexuses? (Nexii? Nexuu's? What's the plural of Nexus? Brain scratcher!). For anyone who's familiar with Nexus devices, you'll already be in the know - they give you the purest Android experience available in an impressive hardware package with looks to match it.

  • Dual front-facing speakers provide immersive stereo sound to give you the best audio for movies and games
  • The Snapdragon 805 quad-core 2.7 GHz processor provides lightning fast multi-tasking and the Adreno 420 GPU gives you brilliant graphics.
  • An f2.0 lens and 13-megapixel camera with optical image stabilisation capture great photos in daylight and low light
  • Get up to 6 hours of use from only 15 minutes of charging. With a large 3220 mAh battery, you get over 24 hours of use from a full charge.

Nexus 9

  • With a soft grip back and subtle curves, the Nexus 9 tablet strikes a slim profile that’s light and comfortable for work or play.
  • Built with a thin bezel, brushed metal sides, clean lines and unique colours, the Nexus 9 tablet is sleek and sturdy.
  • The 8.9" screen is big enough to work and watch on, but small enough to carry around in one hand.
  • Sound is more immersive, layered and distortion-free with front-facing HTC BoomSound™ speakers.
  • With the 64-bit processor, easily move between tabs to check email, watch videos and tweak docs — all at once.
  • The magnetically-attached, fully-responsive keyboard allows you to type at different angles. Sold separately, it helps you get stuff done at home, at the office and on the go.

For me the biggest question is how do the prices compare between O2 Refresh and the Google Play Store. For the Nexus 4 it was £279 or thereabouts from Google as opposed to £399 from O2. If the price is the same then I will take the 2 year interest free credit and buy from O2.

So when can we hear news as to whether we can pre-order with O2?

 

And when do we expect them to start hitting stores? Would they typically be sold out straight away like iphones were?

If the Z3 and Note 4 is anything to go by there won't be any pre-orders.
As of now many O2 stores don't even know if they will have any Note 4's and they aren't on the website yet - Launch day is tomorrow !!!!

No idea mate - Keep checking back is all I can recommend unless O2 actually tell us a date....?
