Did you mean the other way round?? :)

Original nexus feel + slimness --- fusion (transparent case)

bulky + show off your design--- slim (hard back)
[Nexus 5 General] richiegowtham:
nope ...this slim case is very tight and slim ..so you feel like having the nexus 5 without any case..but the fusion case is a bit bulky and heavy ..it takes away the nexus 5 feel though it has a transparent back (actually your nexus 5 will look like nexus 4 with the fusion case :P)

Did order 32 Gb Black from play store on 21st at night. It says Leaves warehouse on 29/11. How did you people got it so early??:eek:

By the way I've also ordered the Ringke Fusion Black Case. I was wondering if I should buy the gadgetshieldz Screen guard. It's priced at 429 on gadgetshieldz.in. Do i need this when I'm having the Ringke case??

Thanks.

Same here bro.. Ordered on 21st evening, Black 32GB, they are saying it leaves on 29/11 :crying:

[Nexus 5 General] raaj129:
:D . You can't blame him for the price quoted as LG has already made it clear that the retail price would be 1k more than the play store price and we are seeing 16 gigs being sold that way already. But you can definitely punch him for giving the "ear phones" justification :)

Phone is awesome...speaker volume is too low but thats ok..:D...I hope those who are waiting will get the phone soon ..I know the wait just kills u...:fingers-crossed:..Now confused about which case and screen guard to buy ....I didnt like the ringke case much..The official play store case looks classy but the cost...:crying:.suggestions please ...Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] XpayneX:
Anyone has the official Bumper Case for Nexus 5?

Have you noticed that the position of the cutout for speakers on the case is LOWER than the position of speakers on the handset? Which, for me, is blocking a little bit of sound from the speakers!

Please confirm whether you guys have this same issue with the cutout placement on the case or not. Just pull the case a little above the cutout and you should be able to make it out.
[Nexus 5 General] raaj129:
Have been using the device for a day. A few things that I feel are worth mentioning :

1) Charging seems to be super fast

2) The local search integration to dialer works almost flawlessly out of the box

3) Same with OK google - catches Indian accents with surprising rate of accuracy

4) Battery backup does not look that awful - I feel it is decent for an Android phone

5) Standby is really really great - almost no discharge when the phone is idle for hours together

6) All text look crisp and sun light legibility is great

7) I tried all sorts of apps and games - yet to see a lag or unresponsive screen

8) The auto awesome feature (though not specific to this device) is freaking cool , a little creepy even

wait, why did I number the points? :) Anyways, feeling lucky that the device is free from any manufacturing defect.

Shouldn't it have been cancelled by now automatically? Everywhere ebay mentioned, and even wrote it in the extension message that the guy sent, that if he doesn't put in shipping details by 25th, the order would be automatically cancelled.

In any case, you can speak to the ebay customer care to get it cancelled.

Sir, the following websites say that Google will be releasing two models: one for North America and Europe, and a second for Asia.

http://www.engadget.com/2013/10/31/google-announces-nexus-5/
[Nexus 5 General] rl421403:
Yes, that could be possible.

Because we and lots of other developing countries still use lower tech for our wireless bands.

Someone also suggesting the same a couple of pages back.

EDIT: Here is the reference about different bands.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2474982&page=27

So it might possible that US/Europe Nexus might not fully support Indian wireless bands. All I can say right now is, wait and watch.

We cannot say anything for sure right now until some people who ordered phone from US/UK can test it in India. And that will take couple of weeks.

All I can say right now is, wait and watch.

[Nexus 5 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
Well I think prices will cheaper once they launch in India ,I am hardcore eBay or any online shopper so I always have some coupons, I will use them to get nexus 5 for cheaper prices, last time I got huge discount also got 6000 payback points on my ICICI card. Just hope it releases within diwali so u can apply coupons as there are many for diwali promotions.

Ordering Nexus 5 in India for under Rs. 26000

Hi, I have updated the detailed guide to show how you can order nexus 5 in India from US playstore for under Rs. 26000. Here it is trak.in/?p=18204 #nexus5

Note: I am new and not able to post urls... so I have put a space in middle
[Nexus 5 General] supercfc:
Buying from US is not a issue. My uncle is visiting there this month. Also dad's friend from US is visiting india this month. Can order from either of them. Problem for me is whether it will work in india or not
[Nexus 5 General] rl421403:
Yes, as [MENTION=3558285]shamps[/MENTION] said, phone will cost nearly $390 USD for 16 GB with tax + shipping in US. Which will be ~24-25k.

So you will save nearly 4-5k buying from US but without warranty.

Although warranty is really not a big deal if you handle your phone with care (as I do). But you need to still consider some other things.

Apart from warranty, when Nexus 5 release in India, online retailers will be selling this phone for a little cheaper. And there is always promotions going on with credit card companies. For example on Flipkart, currently Standard Charter offering 10% cash back. Amazon also offering 10% cash back on Axis bank. Ebay always offer 7-10% discount deals all the time on all cards. So effectively you will get this phone for ~26k or similar price.

And I think, it's a good deal 26k with warranty.

Other thing is, if you buy from Indian play store then you have right to return your phone in 15 days. May be you find some defect or you do not want to keep this phone for some reason.

https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2411741?hl=en-GB&ref_topic=3237699

So, it's all your choice what you want to do.

As for me, I am waiting for Nexus 5 availability in India and some reviews.

But if I do not get better deals for Nexus 5 in India, I will ask one of my friend to buy it from US. Lots of people will be coming to India in December.

Why does it make sense switching to Nexus 5

All set to dump my Galaxy S4 for the new Nexus 5, felt saturated using TouchWiz all these years and updates that take ages to come even on flagship phones. here's my view on why Nexus 5 promises to be a true Google flagship device and could possibly be a good success in the Indian market.
[Nexus 5 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
Exactly, which I mentioned before, since its launching in India, there are ways to buy in cheaper prices with promotional coupons/offers & I am going to do same, hopefully they launches in diwali as loads of offers going on, also if within same city u can ask seller to do offline transaction so to avoid there online selling charges as they will negotiate price also..patienc is the key of success who knows this phone can be worst phone ? Waiting for its true reviews & Indian launch.

[Nexus 5 General] XpayneX:
It's really good. Tbh the best fit on a phone I've ever experienced. Fits really well. Prevents the camera and the front screen to touch the table if faced down or camera side. Far better than other TPU cases and similar ones out there.

Colour is Bright Red. Its really bright, kind of pinkish in sunlight and orangish indoors.

But yeah, besides the speaker cutout placement on my case(and probably experienced by others too), its an amazing case.

Should not be a problem because flipkart usually run such offers.

Agreed, for those looking for a good slim cover which provides decently good protection, check out the Cruzerlite cases. Some say they look cheap, but I love mine and its design and all. The Official Google bumpers themselves are very slim and offer only minimal protectIon, but Cruzerlite and Ringke provide a little bit more protection in the silm category.
