Any Nexus fans in here? I'm a proud owner of a 4, and can't wait for the 5 to be.... well put on sale as literally everything about it has been leaked so far. Any thoughts? OIS seems interesting.

Specs as leaked by Canadian retailer, basically reconfirming everything that has been leaked earlier:

Snapdragon 800 <333
 
I also heard a rumour that it will be roughly the same price as the nexus 4 was last year. If so this will be (even more) awesome.


EDIT: And it has been announced. http://www.google.com/nexus/5/

Oh my god it looks absolutely fantastic. Although being a high school student I'll have to wait a bit before the N5 is in my hands, but until then KitKat on my N4 should tide me over. :D
 
I have a Galaxy Nexus and am still happy with it. However, if I were to upgrade, then I would probably go with another Nexus device.
 
I ordered a galaxy s3, but i am gonna try to cancel order and get 16gb version of this heh.
 
I've ordered the 32GB in black last week, after having a play with my wife's. She's got the 32GB in white. Can't wait, but at the moment it seems it's still about 3 weeks away. :(
 
I take it you got it from the play store.

I got it from work with 3 years warranty. for $720

I hate living in this stupid country.

Ugh! Yes, did get it from the play store, with the one year warranty (I think), for A$468.95 delivered. 16GB would have been A$418.95 delivered. Good to have 3 years warranty, but that's a hefty premium.
 
It is the ATT.

What do you expect.

It is also a replacement warranty.

Anything goes wrong(non user issues), I send it for assesment and I get a credit.
 
I got it on my phone.

Along with one of their .2mm screen protectors.

The red LED means my battery is below 15% and it is not a function of the phone but an app called Lightflow

Light flow allows you to assign different colored LED notifications for things like new SMS, new Email, low battery, charging, phone fully charged, bluetooth, no signal, ect.
You can also assign flash rates.

Ah, you went for champagne.

I liked the slate metal look, make it more stealth like.
 
I went a little cheaper on the case and got the Black Spigen Ultra Hybrid. I quite like it and haven't had any lint trapped in it yet. Like my new phone a lot too, which arrived Tuesday last week. Only thing that really did annoy me was the camera lag, but luckily it's been fixed in the latest update. Still has to pass the test of time, but if it holds up, I'm converted (as in converted from Android-based Samsung phones).
 
Not yet it hasn't

It has been fixed for US models.

Our models has still not gotten the update.

Must've gotten a US model then (ordered from the Australian Google store), seeing I did get the update earlier this week.
 
I dont like to wait for update dates.

I am trying the manual but it is not working for me.
 
Can't wait to get mine. I ordered it like a week ago, still hasn't arrived though. I also got one of those expensive yello bumper cases, because it just looked really cool. How is every else enjoying their Nexus?
 
Running 4.4.2

It found the update in the morning.

Loving mine.

Don't install anything until you do the updates.

The white and black are not the same in terms of what they are made of.

The white has a hard polycarbonate back where as the black is softer rubberish feel to it
