We already know that Google plans to release the new Nexus 5 smartphone in the Indian market soon but a new report from TOI Tech claims that the Nexus 7 (2013) tablet will also accompany the Nexus 5 when it releases in the country.
Although Google is yet to announce the exact release date for both these devices, TOI Tech has leant from its sources that these Nexus devices will debut in India on November 12, 2013. We could not independently verify the claims to TOI Tech but we won’t be surprised if Google indeed releases Nexus 5 and new Nexus 7 in the next ten days.
To remind you, the newly announced Nexus 5 smartphone, which went on sale in ten countries on October 31, comes with 4.95-inch full HD IPS display, 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM and 16/ 32GB of internal storage. The phone also packs wireless charging support, NFC, 8MP rear camera with optical image stabilization, 1.3MP front camera and 2300 mAh battery.
Google has already revealed the price of the Nexus 5 smartphone of Indian Play Store and the 16GB version of the phone will sell for INR 28,999 while 32GB version will retail for INR 32,999.
On other hand, Nexus 7 (2013) tablet, which was introduced in July this year, features a 7-inch 1920x1200p display, 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 5MP rear camera, 1.2MP front camera, and 3950mAh battery.
There is no word on the official price of new Nexus 7 right now but we expect it to be priced starting INR 19,000-20,000 in the country.
nexus 5 pricing are exclusive of tax so it will still be more …
Are you sure. I tried buying the Nexus 7 2012 earlier and it didn’t show me any additional taxes or shipping.
nope..I thought it would be…but if u have past experience then u may be right.
I didn’t really complete the transaction. I just clicked through till the payment page.
Anyway considering the current price of nexus 7 (2012) in play store and outside, I think the Nexus 5 price listed in play store is the MRP. It could be available in other stores for lower prices( if LG launches the device outside play store).
No addl taxes.may b shipping charges. As it is prices more than US market.
well yes i am just waiting for retailers to sell it..it will be quite affordable then. i also asked flipkart when it will be available there.waiting for their response.
You got any reply from FlipKart?
Yes. They said that they are just intermediary..seller needs to list out products to sell.
Just I Tried Buying N7(2012), No extra VAT/Tax. Price is inclusive. And no shipping for N7.
I wish that would be same for N5 as well.
FYI N7 was not announced at Google IO this year!
Yes, you are right, I got it mixed up with last year… :P… fixed up..
nexus 7 2013 32GB 3G model pricing…..:)
Finally some date to look forward to ,, the term “coming soon” has been getting on my nerves !!! Cant wait to get my hands on the N5
There’s no listing of either the 2012 N7 or the N5 today in the Google play store India ; it was there till last night.
Wonder what’s up?
And if the PS is going to sell the N5, will it still come to flipkart?
I can see both.. https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_5_black_16gb
Flipkart release will depend on LG India..
its still listed. really waiting for it to go live soon here. any official conformation on it from google india? or is it just media rumour!
How about buying it from US and what about the warranty? Has anyone tried this?
I don’t think Google provides international warranty. So that’s a bummer!
I wanna buy nexus 5 very soon…. hope flipkart or some deal sites like buycheapindia can give us some good deals then play store..
Checked with Flipkart already but they don’t have any information till now, hope they get some soon…..
if only they priced n5 a little lower (just a bit )..i wish they do… waiting to buy it 🙂
