Google store now shows Frost as out of stock (both 64gb and 128gb). It now has a waitlist in place. Based on the polls Frost appears to be the least popular, so this is strange.

32GB was never available, in my experience. I bought the Frost 6P almost as soon as it went live and the only options were 64 & 128.

Also, pretty sure they must've had an appropriate amount of each color in stock, based on demand estimation.

Either Google ordered fewer in this color, demand was higher than expected, or there was a problem with delivery from factory (i.e. they ordered 40k units but only 20k delivered).

In any case, you can try the Huawei store if you don't want to wait. You probably still won't get the phone anytime before November, but at least you won't have to wait till Google has it back in stock.

This makes me so glad I decided to preorder my 64gb frost yesterday instead of waiting a week like I was planning on doing.

Just fyi, the Huawei online store doesn't sell the frost color, only aluminum and graphite.
 
Hmmm, looks like Google/Huawei didn't expect much demand for the Frost color.

Maybe not, but that's what I picked. I will gauge how I think it looks when I get it and if I want to exchange it with Google for aluminum.
 
I too noticed a 32GB of Frost was not available when I was pre-ordering right after the presser. I wasnt sure if just sold out that fast or they werent available.
 
Not sure why it would be the least popular. I love the panda look, or storm trooper. 64GB Frost 6P is what I pre order, as well as 32GB 5X. Just need to pick one now.
 
I changed from aluminum to frost 128gb a few days ago. I've noticed on the forums that other people were changing to the frost also, so maybe popularity is picking up. I 'm glad I changed when I did.
 
I also changed from a 64gb Aluminum to a 64gb Frost around 7 days ago. Personally, I think people are going through the hands-on videos and seeing how more premium the frost/metal looks versus the other 2. The aluminum looks a bit too much like the iphones and HTC One's. The graphite is more subdued... sort of hides the aesthetics.

yea the Aluminum version looks a lot like the HTC One to me

The frost looked unique and premium.
 
At the moment it looks like all variants of the 64 and 128 memory units are sold out. Only the 32gb ones still available. I hope this sends a clear message that people want more memory.
 
I was really excited about the aluminum at first, but the more I rewatched the short hands-on videos, the frost really looked nice to me.
