The Google Store had issues yesterday when the company started taking pre-orders for the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro. But everything is copacetic now and Pixel fans have been reserving their new handsets. But suppose the particular model you want in the particular color you want it in, configured with a specific amount of storage, is sold out?
Google Store will open a waitlist for you should your Pixel 6 choice be sold out
If you're ordering through the Google Store and the model you want is sold out, you'll see the words "Out of stock – continue to waitlist" appear under the "Select" button. Yesterday, the Google Store simply grayed out the "Select" button if the model you wanted to pre-order was sold out. Before heading to the waitlist, Google runs through some of your trade-in options.
Pre-order your Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro now before your device needs to be back-ordered!
The Google Store has used a waitlist before but usually to keep track of those who want a specific color for a new device that won't be available for some time. According to 9to5Google, the status of Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro availability in other countries outside the U.S. where the handsets are available is as follows:
- Canada: Oh, Canada! All Pixel 6 Pro models are out of stock!
- Ireland: See Canada.
- France: See Ireland.
- Germany: Pixel 6 Pro in Cloudy White and Sorta Sunny sold out!
- Taiwan: Pixel 6 Pro in Cloudy White sold out!
- Japan and U.K.: N/A
According to Nikkei, Google has ordered seven million units of the Pixel 6 series, double the production number of last year's Pixel 5. That doesn't include the five million Pixel 5a units that were manufactured.
