The official Nexus 5 thread.

i like my hockey pucks!

Its a commercial. You think half the things you see in commercials are real?
Did the FTC stipulate commercials need to be real or did I miss something?

Well considering a camera in a phone is one of the biggest features and you have been criticized about your camera prior, seems shady to me

T-Mobile high speed 42mps support? (non-LTE)

My primary question as well.

 

[JimmyH]

Quick question. Nexus 5 using a Micro Sim Card?

 

[techdawg667]

Yes it will work on WIND
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
band 4 is what Wind uses (same as t-mobile in the USA)

Sweet thanks for the reply. It's a bit odd that they would list the specs that way though.

16GB sold out fast!! I had to get the 32GB white 446.82 grand total for me in Illinois

Yea i was going to order the white 32gb, but I might just wait it out and see how the reviews come back

I'm on the note 2. I want to see how the battery life will be before i make the decision to jump.

You get taxed almost like us here in Canada! $467 here for the 32gb n5 after taxes and shipping in Ontario, Canada!

I really don't get why Android 4.3 and most of its under the hood features with a Nexus 7 that was a slight refresh required a whole event, but a Nexus 5 launch with Android 4.4 and more significant changes doesn't. If anything they should've grouped the Google+ changes in and made it 1 large event. Apple does that to show off their other software. I zone out when they talk about Garageband and stuff getting an update for example.

I was just able to put a 16gb white in my cart so maybe they're not out.

Congrats to Google for a very smooth launch. Their servers appear to be holding up well.

They were definitely OOS 10 min ago and have been OOS for a while but it looks like either this is a glitch or they have more stock!

Yeah, everything is available now but shipping will be by Nov 8th. The first batch is going to ship in 1-2 business days.

I have the Note 2 as well. I did buy the 32GB White then cancelled it after a bit of thinking... what would I really be using this phone for that isn't different from my Note 2 already? Hm...

 

[RGUN]

Nothing available in Canada. At least not since Ive been trying.

My guess not having an announcement and going with a sneak launch in the middle of a work day has something to do with it.

 

[Ravynmagi]

My order says "Ships by November 5, 2013".

I'm wondering what others orders are saying for ship dates. Curious if I made it into the first batch or if that's the second batch.

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

Second batch looks like ships by November 8.

Same. Tuesdays puts it 1-3 business days. Don't know if that's first batch.

 

[JimmyH]

Glad I got one but for life of me can't figure out if its using a micro or nano sim. Seeing conflicting reports and wanna hurry up and order 4g LTE sim. Anybody know?

My receipt has a timestamp of 2:08 pm EST (EDT? Are we still on daylight savings?). <-- Canada.

There was stock. you just missed it. Bummer dude.

Also says shipping by Nov. 5. Really hoping they actually mean by end of day today.

Maybe they're slowly releasing them? I just saw a 16gb black come up. Clicked buy but, "Order not completed

It is taking a little longer than normal to process your order. We will let you know via email when your order is complete. This can take up to 15 minutes."

Hopefully it completes.

 

[cbrunny]

So is this thing nano sim or micro?
