I bought one too. Hope I can use it on sprint.

I'm going to call google and sprint support.

I'll report back

Just ordered the 32GB model! Damn. Doesn't ship until Nov 5th.

Actually says "By Nov 5th".... maybe sooner?

Good luck, Shot!

Thats what I'm wondering, because I just bought one

I'm sure the radios are in there, but it's the butt hole of a Sprint rule I'm worried about. Hmm. Interesting. I'm gonna chat with a Sprint rep now and see.

So some configurations are already sold out and yet the device isn't even on the main page. I'm thankful to whomever it was that posted the assumed links a few days go and thankful that I added them to my page watch extension.

Wish I had seen accessories before I placed the order!! Not sure if I would have bought any of them though.

Now that it's available, any word on when 4.4 drops to us Nexus 4 users?

From what I saw they all said "coming soon".

 

[Rxpert83]

Google support confirmed the nexus 5 on the play store IS indeed compatible with Sprints network.

She confirmed you don't have to buy it through Sprint

Dam that was fat and weird. It took a bit of time for the page to update properly. Opened from the PC and there was only the 16g black version. Used the browser on my tablet and there was the white, no 32 gigs. Was able to order the 16 white. Just hope everything went well.

It took about 10-15 minutes and it was already out of stock. One place said the shipping in 2 days ad the other on Nov 8th.

 

[Hook]

Crap, I didn't even notice you could change the shipping method, so I ended up with 3-5 day. I was going fast after the N4 experience.

Most of them are under coming soon so..

Anyways, Verizon might be lucky next year with other Google products

Google's Nexus 5 won't come to Verizon, but 'a set of projects for 2014' will | The Verge

Okay, so what cases/screen protectors are you all getting for this thing? i mean, paying for a phone outright, you gotta protect it!

There's a bunch on Amazon to take a look at, I'm hoping to get a tpu type case that's mostly transparent.

Well unfortunately I have to wait until next Wednesday(Nov.6th) to purchase one. Money is tight right now. I sure hope there will be some left by that time. *crosses fingers*

I personally will get an official Google case in red and yellow. I think they look stylish with this device. Screen protector I will get a Spigen glas.tr slim. The best screen protectors in my opinion. Pricey but worth it. It feels like glass (that's because it is) or as if nothing is on. Easy install. some days I won't rock a case because the white one will need to be shown off. It's soft or matte finsih so I'm not worried about scuffs. I'm real gentle with my phones. My older phones are still in MINT condition.

Black 16GB SOLD OUT

 

[haris163]

And now that I've purchased the damn thing, it is time to go back and look at what exactly I just spent 400 bones on!

Wooooooot

Same here! I went through like click 32GB, click white, click buy as fast I could!

I might get the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. But those cases from the playstore looks pretty sweet! In fact, I might get those too!

Black 16GB SOLD OUT

Hmm, maybe supply will still be an issue. Not even 1 hour yet.

 

[Rxpert83]

In other news, I'm so happy for a unified device.


Google got it done with CDMA
