Seen one guide suggesting using scissors
I did that! Used another microsim as a template.

Yeah Sinny I was thinking about the new 5c but "bang for buck" was just not there. Current phone is a Galaxy III which I'm going to use for work.
Was seriously considering the Xperia Z1 as it has a waterproof cam and would be great for holidays with the family, but for the extra £200 I could get a decent dedicated waterproof cam and use that for much more. So the Nexus won. I think I may have been caught up a little in the "ooh when's it coming" hype too.

just ordered a nexus 5 white 32gb. will be my work phone
I'm just a giant wuss
Just trim it slowly, taking multiple cuts until it is the right size if you have to. You have about 2mm room for error!

Cpw say lines open until 11 tonight but when I phone it says there closed haha

But is it £200 superior? I really doubt it.
The whole purpose of the Nexus is a cheap, yet decent device, it was never meant to beat the best of the best phones from each manufacturer. I agree that it's silly to go from a Z1, S4 or something similar to a Nexus 5, but performance per £ is unbeatable.

This is my current dilemma! Did say I'd never buy another phone where the storage is limited though which sways me towards the S4 straight away! Decisions
i have an s4 and still ordered a nexus 5
Looks just as we were expecting really. 4.4 makes some pretty nice changes, I'm eager to have a play! I must pop into CPW or something to take a good look
For those trying to cut SIMs, I strongly recommend doing it with scissors rather than a cutter, purely because you get clean cuts from the get-go and don't need to worry about smoothing the edges for tidiness. For microSIMS the cutters aren't too bad though. For nanoSIMs however, they're absolutely awful. Scissors strongly recommended for those (not relevant here of course).

Think I might get rid of my S3 for one of these.

I'll pop down my local cpw and check, if I can get there I'll canclel my Google order.
Man of Honour
Yep
Good, because i've cancelled twice now LOL
Should do, yes.
After months of daily checks online I can rest now its been ordered. "Leaves warehouse by November 5". First time ever buying a phone on release day without reviews available.
I have just based my purchase off my experience on a Friends Nexus 4.

Yeh that surprised me a bit.
$349 = £279 last year according to Google. I don't think exchange rate has changed much since then.
The only thing that could explain it is that they realised is that complying with DSR costs a bit of money.
