Charger, hello.

I'm also anxiously waiting for the wireless charger. I check the page almost every day and all I get is "Coming soon". It's getting annoying. I ordered my Nexus on the first day it came out, just like in the US but the charger is taking forever.

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

I guess we all have the same problem here in Germany since we all have ATM cards instead of debit cards.

It's not a problem. As long as the billing address is the same as the card, you can have it delivered wherever you want.

Enjoy guys, I'm absolutely loving my device. Ordered it the first day it came out and got it a week later.

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

If any of you guys have issues with Google Wallet or paying for the device or even response and delivery time, feel free to ask me.

I got the Nexus as soon as it launched and have had it for a while now.

Went through all the German issues of Debit Cards vs. Credit Cards usw.

Glad to help you guys out, just hollar.

Ordered a back Nexus 5, 32GB on November 12 through the German Google Play Store.

Just received an e-mail that it's been shipped out earlier today. While initially it was set to ben sent out December 11 :victory:
[Nexus 5 General] rmean:
They would have sent mine yesterday too, but there was not enough money on my prepaid debit card. For some reason you need twice the money on it for the order to proceed. Hope I won't be put back in line now, that would really hurt.. :D

Given that the pictures so far didn't show too much I had little to go on, but I changed the icons, modded the dialer and some other items... Makes waiting for KK a little more bearable

As far as I can Remember the N4 was a world launch, so it has been available all over the world on the same day (only some hours apard). And as far as I can remember it has been a Tuesday and I had mine at Friday, so pretty fast....

And, as Vangelis knows, I'm from Essen....

i think most people will come from the area of "Ruhrgebiet", Düsseldorf/Köln because it's the area with the highest density when it comes to people in hole europe :highfive:

Btw. have been in Düsseldorf near your Pub, even considered to come in for a fast guiness, but my wife have had other plans...:crying:

Think I will also try to get a N5... hate that Note 2 allready, the custom rom scene isn't compareable in any way with the Nexus one...

My phone even is not able to run any custom rom with working wifi... and know they implement this knox(efuse) stuff in the stock roms so you permanently kill the warenty if you install custom roms.... no Samsung again...

I live in a little Kaff near Arnsberg by the way :D

The Post and Hermes and UPS (they brought the nexus 4) come late here. They come faster if you live in a big town :D
[Nexus 5 General] v3n3:
I know that problem.

As you can see I moved from HTC to Samsung and HTC again, just before I realised that Nexus is the perfect Device for me.

I clearly miss the big Screen, but the advantages are well worth it.

I even hyped my girlfriend for the Nexus 5 :D

Luckily I convinced her to sell her iPhone 5 and use my HTC One S, but now shes eager to use my Nexus 4.

Shes literally looking out more for Nexus 5 News then I do, and I already check all Sites every few hours :P

Its really nice to see so many fellow Germans in here, not to mention those top-notch Developers who are also Germans :P

I've got an email that Google sent me a Nexus 5.

About 21:30 it was in Eindhoven. I live in Frankfurt Oder. Is there any chance that I will have my phone tomorrow? Does UPS provides packs in Saturday?

You should be getting it tomorrow, providing there's no trouble with the storm.

No Saturday delivery, it's a "standard" shipment. :-\

For some reason the phone was delivered today, but it has not been updated in my account!, and as such i have not "officially" paid for it since there has been no transaction on my Credit Card.

The postage stamp on the box is from Venlo in the Netherlands.

Anybody with any ideas?

Ok. Then try re-entering your Data. Bill Adress must be the same as credit card Adress. If it doesn't work just call your card issuer. That's what I did :)
[Nexus 5 General] mantakos:
so if nothing works i go to the bank and say them that i have an issue?

Yes, I called them. They can look at your Account and maybe tell whats the Problem. Without them I wouldn't know about that twice - money - thing.

[Nexus 5 General] Shadow_2k:
@ Konstigt

As for the German IP address, you could subscribe to a VPN service that operates a server in Germany (airvpn.org for example).
[Nexus 5 General] Konstigt:
Hi, that service doesn't work for Google Play, they have probably blocked those IPs somehow.

If anyone has a suggestion of something that is tested and confirmed, please share :)

Download and use cyberghost VPN service. They have free German servers you can choose, it's what I used without issues.

Buying a Nexus 5 in Aachen

Thank you! :)
[Nexus 5 General] Ghengis042:
32GB price in-store?

Has anybody here seen the 32GB model in stores? I've been checking with Mediamarkt and Saturn (Wiesbaden / Mainz area) for almost 2 months now and they keep saying "soon, soon". The price on the website for 16GB is €400, but they don't list the 32GB.

Has somebody here bought the 32GB in a store? If so, how much was it? Is there another store I should be checking for stock, or that would have better prices? The markup is so much over the Play Store in some places that it's almost as expensive as a "top tier" phone like a GS4 or an HTC One.
[Nexus 5 General] 5hadz:
Play Store

Why don't you just purchase it online? Demand is down now, it won't take that long to reach you anyway. I bought the 32GB White version the day it came out and got it a few days after the order.
[Nexus 5 General] Ghengis042:
Online doesn't work for me

Oh, how I wish. My (non-German) employer can make tax-free purchases, but I spent 2+ weeks emailing Google Play support to try to explain the special form we use to get the tax refunded -- they still don't seem to get it. I could make an online purchase, but then I'd have to try to convince Google to give me the tax money back. All the stores around here know how to handle the forms; they get them all the time.

So, I'd end up paying the full €410 online (shipping included), instead of, in theory, €378 (tax-free) of a €450 in-store price, with the added advantage of in-store returns if anything goes wrong. Ordering online really isn't worth the hassle of dealing with Google Play support.

Anyway, the increased total cost has me looking at other devices more seriously. I'm spending this afternoon reading about the GS4, Xperia Z, and HTC One, all of which are very nearly the same price (again, in-store, without tax) as the N5. Hell, I'm even considering the GS3 -- it's still a big seller here and seems like a really great value for what you get.
[Nexus 5 General] 5hadz:
Premium Tax Free

Oh that's why. I did that before when I visited Germany but now I moved and I have to pay taxes like a little *****.

The HTC One is a beast of a phone. And with those front facing grills, who can say no?

I used the GS3 for a year and it wasn't my cup of tea. Immediately switched out the revolting TouchWiz for Cyanogenmod and ended up failing on me after only a year.

Good luck :) tell me if you need any help reviewing anything.
[Nexus 5 General] Ghengis042:
I know, right? Those *grills*, mmmmm. It's the most expensive of the options I'm considering, but with the tax issue it's probably going to be a difference of a 20-30 Euro instead of 100+ like I'd previously thought. I'm trying to find a reason not to buy the One, honestly. :D
[Nexus 5 General] 5hadz:
HTC One

For me it was the Sense. I recently purchased the Nexus 7 as well to replace my iPad 2 and I have to say Stock Android is what does it for me. I love the aluminium unibody iPhone 5 feel of the HTC One but I can't stand having Sense.

As far I know, there is only the 16GB version for the stores in Germany. It was the same with the Nexus 4. If you want to buy the 32GB version you have to buy it from the internet.

[Nexus 5 General] Ghengis042:
Of *course*

Hahahah! I just called Google Play Deutschland (support line in Ireland!) and spoke to a very nice lady who told me that my tax form definitely can't be used for online purchases, and send me a followup email suggesting that I go to Mediamarkt. :'(

I'm leaning pretty strongly towards just ordering from the US and having my dad forward it to me.
[Nexus 5 General] Ghengis042:
Update: I'm probably leaning towards the HTC One or the Xperia Z1 -- both great looking devices, big, fast, great displays, lots of positive reviews. And unfortunately, for a German resident, almost exactly the same price as the 32GB Nexus 5, or *quite a bit cheaper* if you can buy them tax-free.

Another update: in case anybody cares, I ordered a Nexus 5 from the US. I actually tried to buy an HTC One, but they were out of stock. At the next store I tried, they had an N5 out for demo, and *man* this is a really nice phone. The speakers on the One blew me away, sure, but everything else about the N5 screamed "perfect". I probably won't actually get it for 2+ weeks with trans-Atlantic shipping, but I'll survive... somehow.

Another, other update: Arrived yesterday. I don't have to tell you this, but it's awesome. Even my rabidly anti-Android wife says it's "not bad" :D

What do you think about the design? Judging by the photos, I don't like it that much. I'm okay with the altered shape, the front is okay (pure black, no logos), but the back looks really boring. And why would they rotate the Nexus logo? You usually use a phone in portrait mode. What is it made of anyway? Plastic?

I really liked the N4's glass back, even though it required careful handling, it combined simplicity and class and still managed to attract attention.

Don't get me wrong, the N5 will be an amazing phone. Normally, I don't care about the design/build material and it surely is not an deal breaker, but compared to the Nexus 4, it seems like such a setback.
