Where to get Nexus 5X or 6P in Australia

Google’s new Nexus phones, the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P, will be on Aussie shores in the next few weeks, but you won't find all options in the same place. Here is a guide to choosing a new Nexus phone plan based on which model you’re hanging out for.

For starters, the obvious place to start is on the Google Play Store, where both phones, in all storage variants, will be available to buy outright.

Some models will also be available at major electronics retailers JB Hi-Fi and Harvey Norman, where pricing will match the Google Play Store prices.
