*** Nexus 5 THE Official Thread ***

What's all the fuss about the speaker? Unless your a teenager walking around with it stuffed in your bra playing crud music?

Seemed fine for video in the shop

I'd use it for a fair amount of YouTube and Twitch, my S2 sucks as it is. Nothing worse than watching something that looks great on the screen but has rubbish tinny sound.

I don't want another phone with a poor speaker, my S2 is rubbish in that regard as well. It's something I liked about the HTC One.

I did try to cancel mine yesterday, but it said it couldn't as it was out for delivery. I haven't had any notification though. I'll just refuse delivery, I bet I lack the will power though!

Flog it on ebay, I'm sure you could make a nice amount on top.

A Lot of 16GB already bidding over £300. This way you can try it for yourself too.
 
Ordered mine on the 31-Oct-2013 at 18:31:29 GMT, still pending but says it will leave warehouse by the 5th if I check my orders on play store.

Very odd that they are shipping the phones not in the order they were ordered. Mine was ordered on Friday and shipped the same day.

The screwed up last time round. I had an 6-8 week wait for mine when i ordered. I got it next day. Some people with next day/two days had to wait for a month
 
I ordered mine (black 32GB) about 7pm on Thursday and I've just got a shipped notification.

Every mobile I have owned has niggles not just this one , as a daily driver I don't see the problem its fast and smooth far better than any other Android device I used before, updates months before any other manufacture.

When you look at the competition are they really £200 better phones, not likely.

Depends how you look at it.

So far i see the following things:

- Sound is better but not as good as other top of the line handsets
- Camera is better but not as good as other top of the line handsets
- Earpiece sound not as good as other top of the line handsets
- Vibrator motor better but not as good as other top of the line handsets
- battery is smaller than the competition

Lets not also forget the software optimisation the top of the line handsets have in regards to camera and sound optomisation...Stock android still sucks at these!

HTC One and S4 can be had these days for £380-400 so it not £200 difference, its a lot less.

If 16gb, try CPW first, then google play.

If 32gb, google play

Thanks I want to go for the 16GB. Google play store says "Leaves warehouse by November 8" but CPW website says "pre-order" meaning they're out of stock. Will google play deliver it quicker?

I ordered mine yesterday with the same estimate and it has been shipped today.

Try phoning local your local CPW though, as some people have managed to pick them up on the off chance when they went in.
