Google’s new Nexus 5X, the smaller and more affordable of its 2015 Nexus options, is available today in seven launch markets around the world. It’s the first device to ship with Android 6.0 Marshmallow pre-installed, and prices start at $379.

Google kicked off Nexus 5X pre-orders last month, and if you’ve already claimed yours, you should expect delivery today (assuming the device was in stock when you ordered). But if you didn’t pre-order, you can now purchase a Nexus 5X through select retailers in seven countries.

Those countries are the U.S., the U.K., Canada, Ireland, India, Korea, and Japan.

You can either buy the Nexus 5X directly from the Google Store, where prices start at $379 for the 16GB model and $429 for the 32GB model in the U.S., or you can find a local retailer that is offering this device. If they have them in stock, you’ll be able to take your new Nexus 5X home today.

Nexus 5X offers a 5.5-inch 1080p display, a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 processor, 2GB of RAM, and the same 12.3-megapixel camera packed into the Nexus 6P. You also get a fingerprint scanner, USB-C connectivity, and a 2,700mAh battery.
