Hopes for 17th of November looks very grim and earlier than 17th release is even more unlikely now. Amazon just updated their release date to December 2.

www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-16GB-Smartphone/dp/B005XYU45E/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I contacted Amazon.co.uk customer support and I was told that the product, not just one batch, is indeed delayed.

Here is the relevant part of their reply:

I'm sorry for the unexpected delay of your order. I have researched the availability of "Samsung I9250 Galaxy Nexus 16GB Sim Free Smart Phone" and learned that its release has been delayed until December 02, 2011. As soon as the item has been released, we'll be able to dispatch it to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
Oh God ... NO! ... Please don't do this :( Please don't delay ... I am a good boy this year and promised to be much better.

*crying-in-the-corner*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
I spoke to a rep at Negri electronics and they said they are expecting it the 16-19th.. this was yesterday.. damm im so pissed if this is true
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Niksko:
*sobs, gently*

I spoke to a rep at Handtec just now who said they were now expecting stock week commencing the 21st. They said that Samsung and the distributor had decided to delay the product.

The 17th is a day before my birthday, so i was really hoping for a nice, shiny early birthday present to myself.

Oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I wrote another e-mail to Amazon, since I was not really satisfied with their previous response regarding the reasons for the delay. I'll try to find out as much as possible from their customer support.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Black_Tiger:
1st December for the 16GB on expansys and pre-order for the 32GB... :mad:

http://www.expansys.com/google-galaxy-nexus-16gb-black-224319/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shodney:
The whole thing is a bit of a mess...

Samsung sent a press release on the 4th confirming release on the 17th.

Handtec then say, a matter of hours after the press release, that Samsung have pushed it back to w/c 21st.

Why send out a press release, then change the date a couple of hours later :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
cause this possibly be because all first batches have been filled.. ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thyrus:
hardly. Looking at the interest and number of postings in the various Android Forums, the Galaxy Nexus is more of an underdog that an "uberphone" that appeals to the masses. And it would take "masses" for the GNexus to be sold out before launch.

Unless the "first batch" was 1000-2500 units or so. That would be my guess on pre-orders to date for Europe given what I have seen/read on the forums/twitter etc etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I preordered it the moment news appeared on my RSS feed that it can be preordered from Amazon.co.uk, so I would definitely be on the first batch. But their customer support said that the product has been delayed and it has nothing to do with batches.

I did send a follow-up e-mail though, asking for more specific information about the reasons for delay. Unlikely that I will get anything revealing due to possibly negative press though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
i sent @samsungmobileus and @samsungtweets a tweet asking if it has been pushed back.. fingers crossed for confirmation.. you guys do the same !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
Google should put out a statement How many times have they done this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
User named 'Andrew Bates' just commented in Amazon.co.uk that he called Amazon and was told that 17 November is still the dispatch date for his order and that 2nd of December will be the re-stock date. So this might be a batch issue. Don't take it for granted though, let's wait some more for additional replies and information, because the stock date seems to be changing all around now and this might be just Amazon trying to avoid large number of canceled preorders.

I'll let you know once I find out something more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Well, Amazon just debunked the theory of batches and said that: Unfortunately our suppliers have delayed release of the product: Samsung I9250 Galaxy Nexus 16GB Sim Free Smart Phone to us.

So the product is, in fact, in delay. At least in Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArghSims:
Bummer!

Hope it's not a sign of a manufacturing glitch.

Hopefully they'll come out ahead of the newest estimates. It's really impossible to know until the phones start hitting the retailers, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WhiterThanWhite:
If the Nexus really is delayed, then this certainly won't be good for sales. I plan to buy a Nexus and sell my GS2, but if it keeps getting pushed back there'll literally be only 2 months between being able to buy the Nexus and then the GS3 being announced; undoubtedly with far greater specifications.

They need to get this out soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
This is painful to say the least

On the launch event it was confirmed as early November release, now I dont know about you but I dont consider 17th November early November at all, and now they are saying December??

This whole thing is starting to look like a mess and I will be cancelling my order [still scheduled for dispatch with amazon on the 17th] and going out in the real world to find one if my Galaxy Nexus hasn't been dispatched before the 17th for delivery on the 17th
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tom Servo:
Meanwhile, the Samsung UK twitter linked a preorder page on Facebook just two hours ago, while not mentioning anything about delays. Hilarious as ****. And by "hilarious" I mean sad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
lol, thanks Tom Servo

That made me smile, and yes it is very sad :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
Was already december here for a few retailers here in Denmark, was of course hoping that they were wrong, but i guess not :(

Just sucks the place that i ordered still lists the same date as they ever did.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cleargrey:
Another option I just thought of after reading around.

Phones4U gets early exclusivity.

So it may not be that it's been delayed. It may simply be, on the 17th, you can only get it through Phones4U. Everyone else comes 2 weeks after.

Like I said, just a thought after reading around. Stuff like

"Last week, Samsung said the Galaxy Nexus will arrive in the UK on 17 November. Fill in the form on Samsung's Facebook page and "Phones4U will contact you about obtaining the Samsung Galaxy Nexus when it is launched"."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
How could they give a retailer exclusive rights to sell a product isn't that a little bias
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
Awww maaan!

The nexus phones were meant to be phones the were exempt from the networks, you bought them as developer phones ca$h

Now it seems all the networks have got their fingers in the nexus pie and are ruining it :[
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
In other parts of europe too? :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
When I saw the list of launch partners on the official unveiling of the Nexus phone and the "others soon after", I immediately had a feeling it could be going the "exclusive" way with carriers attached.

Which would not be a problem cause I could not care less who sells me the phone "cash". the problem is, if phones4u is actually getting exclusivity, it hurts as phones4u dont do "phone only" deals.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cleargrey:
Remember that in the states, the generally accepted rumour is that Verizon is going to get an initial exclusive.

But again, this is all pure and utter rumour (about Verizon) and speculation (on my part about Phones4U). And I'm really hoping I'm wrong because I am upgrading from a Desire and am really looking forward to my first Nexus. I've been counting down the days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liorra3:
clove (thats ware im pre order the nexus) is still on the 17th, and i can guess that it will come on the week after the 17 ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otacon888:
Just a reply from clove saying that they are not 100% sure regarding the 17th.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
I still remember the Nexus S day, Clove shifted the date again and again and again.

No surprise here ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tom Servo:
Looks like their high horse got knee capped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Alright, this will surely be delayed now. Three different representatives of Amazon Customer Support have told me that it is not up to them and that the delay is with the supplier. Amazon will not have the product on 17th of November and they expect it on December 02. It has nothing to do with their 'batches' of releases with pre-orders.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nutsonfire:
A reputable swiss shop of pretty big size always stated early december as a delivery date. Whatever that means for the rest of Europe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ladrero:
Same in Spain. GN will be released in late November or December 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
At cyberport.de in Germany, it's still the 24th of November like it was from the first announcement.

I wish they'd just follow the Nexus One route and just release the damn thing when it was ready. All this carrier nonsense has gotten quite old.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mhunt407:
I tweeted at @buymobiles_help earlier to find out if they know of a delay as I've preordered from them and they have replied stating they are still expecting it on the 18th.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] churchwa:
Just spoke to O2 and they are still saying 14th.....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dajmeister:
My amazon.co.uk preorder still says delivery estimate 17th of november for what its worth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
a few others have told me the same on gplus.. i dont know whats going on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I've been Amazon customer for years, ordering at least once per month. They don't change order details when release date changes on a preorder, this will only be changed once the estimated release date on your order comes and they are unable to dispatch.

That's of course based on my personal experience with Amazon. Actually my recent DVD order got delayed not even at the starting estimate of the delivery, but the 'end' date (as in, when it was completely proven they cannot deliver), which in Galaxy Nexus order case is 28th of November. Don't be surprised to not see your order date change until then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbroon:
I must be cursed with preorders, this is deja vu of when I preordered my Transformer.

That happened to me when I preordered my transformer, took days for amazon to update the estimate to show the delay.

I can only apologise for inflicting this hideous curse of mine on the galaxy nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
You sir owe us all a Galaxy Nexus for bringing the curse upon us all :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Love_Velvet:
These are two responses i got from clove today:

The first was me asking about the order:

When i asked for more info i got this response:

That to me seems like they know as little as we do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbroon:
Samsung already announced it would be available at a number of retailers from the 17th http://www.samsung.com/uk/news/localnews/2011/samsung-confirms-galaxy-nexus-uk-launch-date a bit stupid of them to say one thing on a Friday then announce something else on the Monday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Super Chimp:
What the heck are they playing at, one minute they state it's officially to be released on the 17th and the next it isn't. Even the retailers seem uncertain!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cleargrey:
Then to be honest, people just need to chill and wait for some concrete news!!! It's kinda like staring at the stock market second by second and getting panicked at every minute drop change. Step back, and take the wider picture.

I really want the GNex and would be seriously p'ed off if it's delayed :mad:, but as of yet, there's nothing to say that it's actually been delayed. Behind the scenes, there could be a number of reasons why certain retailers have shifted their dates.

Also, for the people talking about the carriers, as much as we hate to admit it, the only company that can tell the carriers what to do, and they do it, is Apple. Google doesn't have that clout yet. I wish they did, believe me. So if the carriers in various regions are playing hardball, when the truth of the matter is, we will probably have a delayed GNex. What clout could Google have with a device that is historically aimed at developers and nerds that hang around some nerdy forum called XDA Developers questioning notification lights, and hues on pentile displays?!

So in short, I think we all need to chill a little. Cancel order or don't cancel order, we're all going to buy it anyway! I know I am. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] htc6500uk:
I wouldn't take too much notice of Amazon UK release dates as they are often wrong. I am writing this on a Samsung Galaxy Note which is still not yet 'released' according to Amazon UK and even if it was available they would charge me £100 more than I paid from elsewhere! Tried to explain to their Customer Services but it's like talking to a bunch of corporate idiots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
Relax guys. I want one just as much as the next guy, got my money standing by, but life is not ending. It's not a critical object of need.

That being said. Google and Samsung does need to get their **** together like Apple and announce it and release with some confidence. If it's not ready or confusing to relay availability info just wait until it's ready to do your splashy unveiling. All this confusion and rumor just makes them look like they are not in control of their stuff in the same way Apple is. It makes then look second rate, when in fact they have a great product and platform. They just end up shooting themselves in the foot and pissing the rabid, passionate, and most vocal set off.

Granted, it'll all blow over after it actually is available. Sit tight and relax.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liorra3:
same here, week +/- will be the same for me ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cleargrey:

I get the feeling, similar to Google Music, they've had their backs against the wall a bit with this Nexus launch trying to get it out for Christmas and the undoubted carrier negotiations in the states which aren't going as planned. Hence the "November" release.

And if history is repeated, the Nexus One was delayed up to a month in some places (US got it first with next to no delay), Nexus S was delayed by only a couple of days worldwide, so by my calculations the Galaxy Nexus will be delayed by exactly 11.7 hours. :D

9 days left. We'll all know soon enough if it's delayed or not. Positive vibes everyone. Positive vibes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cheetohz:
MY TURN!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
It seems that the theory that unlocked phones are the ones that are delayed has gotten another sign of being true. It seems that the 17th November release date is for direct Samsung partners only, such as Phones4U, who do not sell the Galaxy Nexus unlocked.

This was posted on Amazon:

"I have spoken to Samsung direct. The launch date is still the 17th. It will appear in shops and with retailers that as Samsung partners. Amazon do not buy direct from Samsung but go through a distributor. That distributor may have stock issues resulting in Amazon being the the 2nd, but you will see it elsewhere on the 17th. Since Samsung mention Phone4U on their facebook page, I think you can assume they will have it 17th. I do not know who else is s Samsung partner though."

So it may just be Phones4U exclusive on 17th, with Phones4U being not only mentioned on Samsung UK page but also their entire Galaxy Nexus page is about Phones4U.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
@kristovaher and all

I just twittered with handtech, and their response is:

@Thyrus11 We are authorised sellers (partners?) be it 17th 21st etc we will be first to receive
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
One of the original listings of Galaxy Nexus here have now changed to December 15th.

Generally these dates seem pretty wild speculation, have they really not been told any dates from their supplier?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
This Thread is a sham to stir up Bull crap
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
Amazon have just pushed the expected delivery date back to 2nd December

http://androidcommunity.com/amazons-uk-galaxy-nexus-launch-slips-to-december-2nd-20111108/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
And as if you read here !, You can't go by what amazon says.

This thread should be closed due to it's all speculation and the release date is 11/17 no ifs, buts or about it :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
Read the article and you will realise how idiotic your comment is - it doesn't necessarily question the general release date, only Amazons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coleburns:
you know what, i think you hit the nail on the head

I saw this gigantic phones4u billboard the other day advertising the galaxy nexus so i'd very surprised if it isn't released on the 17th to pay monthly customers.

And as you also confirmed, phones4u don't sell unlocked phones.

which begs the question, why the hell does it matter if a consumer buys the phone unlocked or through a carrier? they are still getting paid
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tom Servo:
If a single reseller is holding up all of the UK, that would imply that initial stock is next to nothing. Because people that are willing to get a contract phone are usually the type that already have one, and there's only so much people at a given time that are up for renewal or qualify for a new device. Power users, that have bigger interests in the Nexus, won't just jump into a contract for the sake of getting one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robstunner:
Negri told me that they "are unaware of any delays" and still expect the phones to arrive near the 17th. (At least for the USA folks here)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Alright, it is official now (at least when it comes to Amazon). Amazon.co.uk has notified me that my pre-orders release date was changed:

Unfortunately, the release date for the item(s) listed below was changed by the supplier, and we need to provide you with a new estimated delivery date based on the new release date: "Samsung Galaxy Nexus 16GB Sim Free Smartphone" Estimated arrival date: December 05 2011 - December 13 2011

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Other people who ordered from Amazon have also gotten the note now that their order has been updated with new release date. So whoever has the phone on November 17 I don't know, but it won't be Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arranmc182:
Just got off the phone with the Phones4u upgrade team about 20mins ago as i put my details on there site for the Galaxy Nexus and the woman said there systems are still saying 17th of November to them, all the deals sucked they dont do contracts with 3uk at all so she could only offer mewas 500MB to 1GB data and I have 2GB data at the moment and and have gone over that a few times and I want to have Unlimited data so I will stick with 3uk and upgrade to an All-You-Can-Eat plan.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
this what the company i got mines from said

"The Galaxy Nexus should be arriving between the dates of November 16th – November 19th"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Well, all signs point to the fact that you should be able to get a Galaxy Nexus for contract around 17th November and if you're looking for an unlocked phone, it might be quite a bit tougher.

I've canceled my pre-order at Amazon however and decided to just wait for reviews now, since all this is a little fishy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crin:
I preordered mine last night with phones4u on orange. They confirmed or should arrive on the 17th, "if not slightly before". We shall see. Fingers crossed eh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmbillings:
People make some valid points here, that it actually isn't life-ending, but it's funny how annoying it is. I'm the same, it's incredibly frustrating. They announced it back in October, sell it already!

I'm in a different position to most in that I'm not just buying one sim free. My current contract could be renewed from the end of October, so I was hoping to simply get one on an upgrade and carry on as normal. Yet T-Mobile still don't even know *if* they will be selling it, let alone when!

My local carphone warehouse store said they didn't have a clue if they'd be getting it or be able to sell me one until it was actually released. This was about 10 days ago, I've not been in since, as the CPW site still has a "sign up here for more info" link and I've had nothing come of that.

The article someone posted is true- asides from keeping up with demand Apple can do a launch properly. Google and Samsung seem to be achieving nothing more than a drip-drip-drip of disappointment.

Part of me keeps thinking "screw it, I'll just get a Sensation XE or a GS2" but I know I'll regret it.

Weirdly I want NFC. Not because there's any point in it yet, but I don't want to be stuck 12 months away without it when some cool stuff has been developed. I also want the high res screen, and although other phones will get ICS, how messed up will it be? If it comes to that, I'll have to wait for CM9 - CM7 is the only reason my Desire hasn't gone in the bin yet thanks to Simple2Ext!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liorra3:
that good, coz clove can't Promise anything, but yet, the release date is still on the 17th
