yardameus 220 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I've always loved Nokia phones, and they've seemed to have gotten back into the game lately along with Microsoft. I'd also say the Nexus 5 is a plus cause it's not locked down. Nothing beats a good ol' stock phone with no crapware added on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Nexus 5 has been released. Just ordered a 32Gb version - £339 plus £10 p&p Black 32gb ordered too. It's a steal at that price for essentially a £600+ phone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37090 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Yea I ordered the nexus 5 as well, but i didn't do it until yesterday afternoon so i may end up having to wait a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashkelly 62 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 Nexus 5 is listed as "Coming Soon" from my current provider. Will need to keep an eye on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37090 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 $349 unlocked is quite reasonable. I'll gladly pay that to avoid having to sign a contract. Plus the plan I'll have will be $10 cheaper anyway, so over a two year span it will almost wash out. If they continue with this model i don't think I'll ever do a contract again.

all4dom 73 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I'm wanted the nexus 5, but I'm on Verizon & am paying full price to keep my unlimited data.

gthrift 57 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I wanted to order a nexus 5 so bad but there is nothing wrong with my nexus 4. Maybe the next one or sometime next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One2Go 98 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) My mail message said Nexus 5 shipped 10/31/2013 and when ordered it said ship date 11/5/2013 and yes black 32GB one. Plenty of people are considering leaving Verizon some after 12 years with them because Verizon in its infinite wisdom decided we don't want it. Sprint, T-Mobile & AT&T are the carriers in the US plus their MVNOs. Verizon made a hash out of the Nexus release that they had in the past angered people with their delays to test if the phone is suitable for their network. So even if you buy the Nexus 5 and since Sprint has CDMA technology the phone can operate on VZ's network but if they activate it is another story and oh yeah the LTE band for Verizon is not included in the phone's specs. Sounds to me like VZ and Google are not very close. Edited November 3, 2013 by On2Go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crestj 67 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Mine is on a van on its way to me now! Not bad as I only ordered it Friday night!

That's OK if you can stand the ads - I can't I pay for ad-free apps, but block others that won't offer an ad-free app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using ADFREE for a year, but it seems to have stopped being updated and now it's expired, so I have switched to ADAWAY. I joined a Nexus 5 forum today. It's a sister forum to the Nexus 4, 7 & 10 forums that I'm already a member of.
