Anyone else think it's strange that people are kissing 7 nexus 4 guy's nuts about taking the high road with class when its more plausible that he's scalping than buying $400 phones as gifts?

I'm all for the benefit of the doubt, but that doesn't make sense.

Really, I don't give a **** who he is buying them for (lol, that still kills me!) He shouldn't have been allowed to. A limit would have done at least SOMETHING to curb the scalping.

Carry on defending the "underdog" with 7x n4 16GBs, don't let that "little guy" get pushed around.

:rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Rearth makes decent stuff, but I will never own their slim cases. The GNex one scratches the hell out of the phone if you try to take it off. Any case that damages a phone more than it protects is not good. I've had good luck with their TPU cases though. This is why I never wanted an Otterbox. Took one apart that the Verizon super store at a local mall and the inside was all hard and scratchy. This on top of the bulk, if I want a really beefy case that adds loads of bulk I will wait for Ballistic to make a case for the N4. I bought one for my notoriously clumsy-with-phones wife. With that and a screen protector, it has no marks on it, even though it's been dropped, chewed on by my one year old, etc.

Has everyone who was backordered received an email?
[Nexus 4 General] lskeys:
Maybe they are going by time purchased. My purchase went through at 6:08 CST. I got the email today at 6:02 CST. Look like a charge hit my credit card this evening. Everything is still pending in Google Wallet. Still says Nov. 13th. Same since the day I ordered.

Get your wife to recommend you and you both get $50 cashback. My dad just recommended me this past week and I initially got denied (I'm a student) but this weekend got 2 letters. One saying I was declined and another saying I was approved lol. Got my card today but doesn't seem like we got the cashback referral bonus. Either way, 5% cashback is pretty good. Although I just spent $388+around $150 in online shopping this past week and really wish i had a Discover card for that. Had to use my Amazon Visa card which isn't a big deal since I get almost everything on Amazon anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] nazzza:
So,

I will receive the phone this week.

How I can buy a micro simcard for tmobile?

I'm trying to order online on the tmobile website, but they are asking for a 2 years contract????

there is a link where I can take 1?

thanks
[Nexus 4 General] Clayfree:
I think I actually believe him. I was surprised when he posted the screen cap and did not realize he would get some criticism. I'll bet the real scalpers are here asking questions but would never let on they were buying 5 or more.

[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Dude, it's 8gb models... yuck. He could be selling them or giving them away to homeless people for all I care. I would not buy a phone for my personal use with only 8gb. Plus... as others have said, dropping 300 buck gifts for graduation is not bad if you are able to afford it. Not an over the top grad gift at all. Bless him for having such strong family ties. Now if he was whining about not getting his 7 16GB models, I would be upset... not at him, but Google. Google should have anticipated this crunch in the beginning and at least made it a little harder by restricting orders to 2 per account. Still the ability to fraud the system, but it removes a little of the incentive.

[Nexus 4 General] HNKS:
All reviews are stating that the battery life is rubbish. Such a shame, dont know whether I want to buy another phone with a crap battery.
[Nexus 4 General] crr127:
They was just a review a page or so ago that said he had gotten 16hrs on a single charge one day and then over 12 the next. That doesn't seem like a bad battery to me. I currently get home with about 30% and that is using 4.1.2 on the One S. That equals about 10 to 12 hrs a day avg use. If I can get the same battery life or even a little better with quad cores and 2gb of ram and a much larger screen. I'm HAPPY!
[Nexus 4 General] qtekker:
The battery life on the N4 is worse than the Optimus G, with the same hardware. So that means that LG did a beter job with the software. This also means that Google's next upgrade can make the battery life better.
[Nexus 4 General] florian3000:

[Nexus 4 General] co.ag.2005:
The Verge review says otherwise. I guess we'll really have to wait till it's released!
[Nexus 4 General] GiantJay:
It's hard to say what the battery life is. Who knows if they just have everything on to sync and all notifications on. I pretty much turn all that off and touch sounds which help. It's a 2100mah battery which should be pretty descent.

[Nexus 4 General] kanetheninja:
Well, I do agree that he shouldn't have been allowed to buy 7 at once. Apple spreads the ordering wealth around for a reason. Hell, even grocery stores have figured out how to make limits when they have crazy sells.

Of course, I don't buy into the conspiracy that he's a major scalper and accidentally posted a screenshot with 7 phones and then came up with an elaborate lie about his family to avoid the shame of some anonymous forum members...

[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Yep, I pulled the trigger and got that one. It's just a temporary solution. I even think if I get the bumper that I will need some kind of holster or something. I'm still holding out hope that the orb will actually come out. I'd love to stick a sticky pad on that and use it as a car mount. I use my phone in the car all the time. I wonder if I could rig a wireless charging pad to a sort of universal car mount, that way I could still use a case and have the thing charge without having to fumble with a USB cable to keep the thing charging... someone with better mechanical/electronic skills than me should get on that ASAP!

Check to see if your Post Office is now a MTC office (Move to Competitive) office. Mine is, and now I can use the street address of the Post Office, and have UPS and FedEx deliver there. Only certain Post Offices offer it right now because it is a pilot program, but it helps out alot.

There are options to tell it to notify the day before delivery as well. The alert told me it would be delivered between 1:30 and 5:30 tomorrow.

The consensus was for me not to get it and stick with the cruzer lite. But now we are getting the phones before cruzer lite will ship. So I'll either not take the N4 out of the house until I get the cruzer lite cases on the 13th or just buy something at a mall kiosk or something the day the phone comes.

If they have any N4 cases....or I can find a case that ships with amazon prime... know of any?

It is agaisnt ToS to buy for commercial resale. That is a very very grey area. 1 commercial resale has an ambiguous meaning. 2 ToS are not laws, they are pretty much "users guidelines". You cannot be prosecuted or anything, but you lose your buying contract rights and also permit the company to discriminate agaisnt dealing with you in the future.

[Nexus 4 General] Chrisdroid:
Leave the guy alone. If he wants to buy 7 phones, let him. It's not his fault that Google and LG decided to only make a limited supply. Anyway, this is America, the land of capitalism. If he purchased the phones solely to make a profit, thats fine too. You guys act like he's ruining someones life. You should be complaining about the people out there buying meth and heroin then selling it at a profit instead of a guy that I believe genuinely bought his 5 cousins graduation presents. It's not that unbelievable to me that he spent $1,600. I'm just a college student with a part time job and I already spent close to $800 on Christmas presents so far this year.

Well I got a bit impatient with this whole fiasco. My cousin works at a T-Mobile,his store got some more Nexus 4's in stock, and put one on hold for me. I just signed a new contract with them two weeks ago, so I was able to snag the Nexus for $199. It defeats the purpose of getting the $349 price tag, because my bill is now $15 more a month. I'm surprisingly alright with this though.My girlfriend and I are still paying less than we were with Verizon. I also don't have to stress about me possibly someday maybe being able to snag a nexus from the Play Store. So yeah, bottom line... This phone is amazing. I can't wait until you all get your devices, I'm sure you'll do some amazing **** with this beast. This whole experience has been nothing but frustrating, and I never even got an order in. **** you for messing this up Google...but please enjoy my money haha

Umm... lets try to be rational

How were any of us to know it was going to be SOLD OUT when we placed our order. Especially the ones in the beginning..

Google allowed up to 10 when ordering. Everyone was free to take advantage of it. No fault of the buyer.

Innocent until proven guilty.

Do you really think if you were in a position to buy them as presents you would be like, ok wait.. maybe they'll sell out. I should forget my plan and buy 1 so random people I don't know can have one. If they are still available I'll get the rest later. If not.. owell my family is less important than some random person on the internet (that's even if the thought crosses your mind that they actually will sell out).
