Choose the 10GB data / 4G ready / Unlimited texts / unlimited minutes which is £69.99 up front and monthly £15.00.
So £15 x 24 = £360 + £70 is £430.
Battery is stunning for me. And more improvements coming in 5.1
I only ever use 50% of mine. I could get 2 full days if I tried
Ended up buying mine from Carphone Warehouse. 32gb midnight blue. Ordered about 5pm and it came next morning.
Loving it so far. Don't think it's that big at all and feels quite comfortable in the hand. Was a little worried as I'm a one-handed typer with phones, just using my thumb, and it's still possible (and I don't have really large hands).
Speakers and screen are beautiful. Battery life got me easily through a day with around 4 hours on-screen time on the first charge cycle.
Only downside is that ambient display is a little hit and miss. I have a screen time-out of 60 seconds and a the screen-lock set for 5 minutes. I've found that between the screen time-out and the lock coming in, I get no notifications via the ambient display during that time. Once the lock sets, the ambient ambient display notifications work.
I could set the lock to come on the same time as the screen times out as a work-around to this but it's still a little niggle. Anyone else getting this or is it just me?
Apart from that, I'm loving it. No complaints at all. I was going to get the Moto X for the better ambient display features but opted for this in the end and I'm happy with it.

Is that will full sync on and data /wifi?
None of this turn data/sync off during the day
This is with everything on.
4G, wifi, bluetooth (paired with my moto360), full sync.
If your keen on rooting it then Double Tap to Wake and the Lightflow LED hack maybe useful to you.
I like the way the ambient display pulsates but having the notification LED activated is a lot better

Why wouldn't you root a Nexus, it's so damn easy.
Yes. Double-tap to wake is something I'd like. Not rooted a phone since my Nexus One years ago. Might give it a shot although voiding the warranty is kinda putting me off.
Rooting used to be permanent on the N1. Is it reversible these days?
Yep, can flash a stock rom and relock the bootloader.
In XDA there is a version of double tap to wake that doesn't require root.

Everything on and bluetooth connection to my moto 360 all day
That is impressive. Facebook is still using more battery than my screen
Odd.
Facebook doesn't even make an appearance on my battery info.
Greenify it?
