indeed but the biggest draw back is still battery drain due to location services and most of the Gnow depend on location services hope Google improve further in that particular area
[Nexus 5 General] shantzg001:
Guys, if you haven't contacted ebay for order cancellation/refund, you need to do it. It won't be done automatically. I talked to ebay rep right now and she said that automatic refund/cancellation wasn't initiated as buyer is using powership (ebay's own shipping). And we need to raise a resolution request which will be resolved in 72 hours.

I know this sucks and ebay is automatically giving the seller a 4-5 day extension (even after we raise a request) without us approving the time extension. If you don't raise a request at all, then I guess seller gets an infinite time extension :|
[Nexus 5 General] sunil1982:
If u have approved the time extension and if he doesnt ship by that date ull get refund by itself....it'll not get extend...until we approve it...i am just waiting as the extended limit will expire on 30th lets see
[Nexus 5 General] anitdang:
I'm in the same boat. For the last 2 days all I'm getting is we are investigating... they are turning out to be Indian police force every time you talk to them, they say "WE ARE INVESTIGATING" I don't know how much time it takes to investigate. I got the email on 23rd morning about the shipping details.
[Nexus 5 General] uvikram:
Yeah sorry, i ordered on 20th morning..... It is so frustating that i havent got it yet!!
[Nexus 5 General] netcitizen:
I declined the request. The shipping date was first mentioned as 25th then 26th. And as per ebay if he does not ship by 26th We'll get refund. but it did not happen because somehow the extension request was taken into account and ebay now says the order has to delivered to me by Dec 10th. which is utter nonsense. I tried to raise a claim and I could not since it is not yet 7 days from the date of transaction. one more BS from ebay. The ebay rep asked me to raise a claim tomorrow. Then a claim rep will contact me and resolve the case. If refund is approved (which am told is most likely) I would get it in 5 working days. it is silly on the part of ebay to have an order on 20th and last delivery date by 10th. that is 20 days. which is a joke literally. That seller has two mobile numbers. one is always not reachable and in the other the call does not even go through. wonder how he did that.

Also the seller uses a prepaid shipping label dated 25th Nov from Blue dart. So in the resolution page it says the item is shipped and has a tracking number. I called blue dart and found out that this a prepaid label and seller has not sent any consignment to blue dart. either this guy is cheater or he underestimated the demand and is trying to cover up.
[Nexus 5 General] sunil1982:
He has activated call forwarding....i spoke to ebay just now and they have received the lot complaints about thw seller and the person told me he doesnt have the devices with him...and they are working on the issue i think we should wait till 30th then put case throgh consumer court on ebay coz we have paid through paisapay and who have decliend the request...Still the request has been approved...we should complaint in joint then itll be treated as fraud...
[Nexus 5 General] XpayneX:
I haven't tried putting on a good screen protector, which already comes with the exact screen size and cutouts for call speaker. I've ordered one from eBay, but can't say about it since I haven't received it yet.

I got a scratch guard put from a local mobile store. He had a scratch guard sheet and applied on the phone really well and then had to cut out the extra part of the scratch guard and the call speaker port. As soon as I had put back the case, the lamination from the edges of the phone started coming out. The side of the screen is a liiiittle bit raised. So if the scratch guard comes over it, it'll start coming out when the case is applied.

I ripped that scratch guard from the phone after 5mins lol

(BTW, the phone comes with a default sheet on the screen and has Nexus 5 written over it. I didn't remove it the first day and had the case on as well. Had no problems or bubbles from the edge so I'm sure applying the screen guard properly won't have any problems with the bumper case)
[Nexus 5 General] shantzg001:
I didn't approve the extension request. Still the order wasn't cancelled.

Nexus 5 Availability Gurgaon

I am planning to buy 16GB black Nexus 5. Anybody has idea where I can get it in Gurgaon.

I tried in LG showroom Sahara Mall, gurgaon but he only has 32GB available.
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
Answer please

Somebody answer please....:(
[Nexus 5 General] advait16:
Thanks a ton for the detailed review brother!!:good::good:

Do post your review about the screen protector.:D

---------- Post added at 02:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------

According to what the status says on play store i think black 32gb will take some time as it is out of stock..but id you want to go for white it says leaves warehouse in 1-2 days you might get it as early as next week.16gb black also will take some time (but not indefinite time like 32 gb black).Even 16gb white u might get in next week.So decide which one you want to buy and how long you are ready to wait.Otherwise try getting it from local LG retailers maybe you will get it there...

P.S.: The play store's delivery time i have posted are based on my estimate only.Chances are that you might get it even early or late.All the best. :good:
[Nexus 5 General] anitdang:
Call this person Mr. Gupta, he is the distributor for Gurgaon. his no is 9873330795.
[Nexus 5 General] eshopper:
thanks for the words of confidence. As i see they take 10-15 days to get the product delivered which is the most common complaint. I have previous experience with them for buying mobile and no problem for my order as such.

as the product 32gb black is out of stock everywhere the estimated date as stated 27-dec-13 was reasonable and with that price a blindfold.

will keep you guys posted.

:angel:
[Nexus 5 General] aashgaur:

Is there any tweak/app to lock/disable the onscreen navigation controls while playing games that are not using the immersive mode?? :confused:
[Nexus 5 General] SamBG:
Anyone in Blore who has bought N5 from local stores??

I need a 32Gb as playstore is not accepting my card...!!:crying:
[Nexus 5 General] dvsk69:
Keep checking the Play Store. Just go ahead and order when it shows as available.

and for shipping its completely random. I ordered on 21st and got it by 24th. Few people who ordered on 20th were still waiting then.

So just go ahead and place your order, sit back and relax. :)

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

Use someone else's card buddy... local stores are all out of stock and no one is sure about when they'll receive it for sure.
[Nexus 5 General] SamBG:
I ve already used 3 debit card all declined...did u order from the playstore.??

[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
I think this seller is a con man. He has taken money for 233 32GB phones when he probably does not even have stock. That's Rs 74,56,000 @ 32000 per phone.

Even Ebay is not doing his part. This person should not have got any lenience. I contacted the customer support for ebay and they suggested that we need to send an email complaining about the seller on their email address. I am planning to send one.

I agree with you and a joint complain should be the need of the hour. Why not we all get together and send the complains along with our paisapay ids so that some actions can be taken against this person.

IF you are all ready, kindly send me your paisa pay ids and ebay handles as a PM and I will draft an email with all our ids and send it to ebay. What do you say guys. Also we should all give negative feedback to this person in ebay so that he does not dupe other people like this.
[Nexus 5 General] bkaushik27:
Lucky you:thumbup:
[Nexus 5 General] sunil1982:
I am in for the complaint and one as per paisapay protection policy seller doesnt get money he has shipped the product and the recipt of the same is approved by the user till that money is held with ebay we need to put pressure on ebay for refund with immidate effect or face the consenquence....

And we should also take help from here http://www.consumercomplaints.in/
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
SO kindly send me your details Sunil1982 and I will add your name in the list.

Does that site help really... I am interested in taking help from there too.

[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
Email has been send to ebay customer support and seller complain cell. I am really worried because the delay this person is causing, we might not even be able to book the phone from playstore as it might become out of stock by the time we get to the bottom of this.

Man I just hope ebay gives a solution asap.

Waited long for Nexus 5

Hey, Its been long wait for me to, ordered on 22nd Nov, yet to receive N5... Yes, Samsung Galaxy Apollo i5801... have done gr8 choice... waited long... :victory: :good:

Eagerly waiting for Google to ship... its says Dispatch Status - "Leaves warehouse by 29 November 2013."... dunno when I'm gonna get it.

I too have ditched my four month old S4 without a second thought. Although my N5 has a dead pixel and I am feeling the pangs of poor service/coordination of google and blue dart, but still I have no regrets.

Nexus 5 doesn't support WiFi direct file transfer?...whenever I tap share option in gallery...WiFi direct share doesn't show up.
[Nexus 5 General] Sparx75:
What? I still have my order in place toh, for a black 32GB. I didn't use any coupon and choose payment method as COD. Can you elaborate as to why yours got cancelled?
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
I know that's the dilema that I am also facing. 32 GB from play store will be ready and dispatched in 2 to 3 days but can't buy until I am sure that the order will be cancelled from ebay. Don't want to be stuck with 2 Nexus when I don't need it.

By the way why was the Indiatimes order cancelled. One of my friend also purchased from Indiatimes and he too faced the same issue. So Indiatimes has lived upto my expectation and my decision to not order from them was 100% correct.

Check your email, I have forwarded the email to you. Also Request you to forward the same email too from your email address so that there are more complains going to ebay.

Review!

Okay so its been 4-5 days since i got my hands on N5.

Firstly im really impressed and totally in love with this device.

Pros.

1. The Device itself is gorgeous in build and really eye-candy.

2. Butter smooth & Blazing fast.

3. Mesmerizing display really vivid.

4. No heating issue (Even my HTC One had heating issue)

5. Above average camera & it gets better with HDR.

6. "OK Google" is fantastic feature, In these several days Ive got so used to it that I wont be able to use any phone without it. And Its really accurate even recognizes our Indian languages :P

7. KitKat is a really tasty treat!

8. USB OTG FTW!

9. I actually am satisfied with battery. I can get through the day with average usage so its enough for me :)

Cons.

1. Speaker output is low, REALLY LOW!

^ Yes thats the only considerable con!

Accessories.

1. So I'm using this panda with Cruzerlite Spi-Force Case, and believe me it looks really cool :cool:

2. & this Gadgetshieldz screen protector. It goes superb with it. (Apply carefully, I screwed up 1st time so i had to buy another one :p)

3. This wireless charger works perfect.

[Nexus 5 General] Sparx75:
You mentioned something about an offer. Well what offer did he avail? It could be they cancelled it cause of that. I know thats wrong, but Indiatimes isn't fair, even I know that. Thats why I went with COD. I'll keep a lookout at the LG retail stores too in the meanwhile. If I get it before Indiatimes, then I'll reject the delivery, no money paid in advance :D.

So my Nexus 5 is finally shipped today by snapdeal via bluedart. I opened up the bluedart website & it shows the numbers not found error. After Googling I found out that usually a shipment takes 24hrs to show up on the system. I'm from Gadag (Karnataka) btw. Any idea as to how much time does it take blurdart to deliver the package?

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------

I've ordered the exact same looking case via eBay. The only difference being that on the eBay I found no name as cruzerlite for it. Also it cost me 599INR (about 1$ less than yours did).
[Nexus 5 General] jithendra194:
Anyone tried doing it?
[Nexus 5 General] ishaan.ahuja:

Hooray...!

got my nexus 5 16gb black today at 6 pm...!

I'm loving this...!!!

BTW i had ordered it on 21 Nov. at 5 pm...got delivered today by FedEx...! :D:fingers-crossed::cool:
[Nexus 5 General] Sparx75:
When had you ordered on Snapdeal? and is it a 16GB one or 32GB?

And the delivery time depends on the distance between your city and the city it was shipped from. I guess max 4-5 days. Good luck!
[Nexus 5 General] Venomous Viper 119:
Had placed an order on 22nd Nov. It is a 16GB Black Nexus 5. I called up snapdeal customer service, the guy said that he isn't able to check out my status atm & that I need to call back after 15mins. I won't be calling him anyway. It'd be great if it will be delivered by 29th coz I have to collect it from my friend in my native., about 35 miles from here & have final lab exams on 30th & 1st :(. Wish snapdeal could deliver anywhere like eBay.

Also I have ordered the spigen case as I said, which was shipped on 25th. They say it'll be delivered by at most 2nd Dec.
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
Send me your email address as PM and I will mark you a copy too.

Guys what other steps can we take to ensure that the refunds happen really fast and also we need to ensure that the seller gets negative feedback for the sale. Though I am not sure how much does he care about the negative feedback.

Regards,

Kailash
[Nexus 5 General] amkush:
Hi All,

Can you let me know what is the average charging time for N5. It takes about 3 Hrs for my Nexus to fully charge from almost naught. Also I find the micro usb which goes into the phone is not firm when inserted, rather it is pretty loose and I can move it freely laterally to certain extent.

Thanks !

Yes microUSB is loose...same here :)

Hello friends.. Nexus 4 user here.. A friend of mine needs a nexus 5 16gb black.. He wants me to order from US playstore.. Is it any good buying it from US??.

[Nexus 5 General] netcitizen:
there are couple of coupons that they themselves have listed on their site. 12 % off

Ask him to go for 29k Indian peice eyes closed...no use importing
[Nexus 5 General] Sparx75:
Yeah I saw those. They. didn't let me use cause I ordered on COD. I don't mind losing some discount as long as I have flexibility of cancelling that order without worrying about refund.
[Nexus 5 General] shantzg001:
Pretty sure he will care about -ve feedbacks. Especially if he is getting a bunch of 4-5 together. That'll make new buyers pretty wary as he has just about 1k feedbacks till now.

Doesn't matter for buyers. If you don't plan to sell anything on ebay, then the feedback number doesn't really matter.
[Nexus 5 General] jetzstream:
I ordered my 32GB black on the 24th..from Google Play Store & the status still shows PENDING. Indicated shipping date is still 29th. I think there's no chance of it coming earlier is there?
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
Correct but then they have to justify if we raise a concern with Ebay support. And if you are correct ebay support will remove the negative feedback. This happened with me when the seller did not ship the product within 15 days I gave him negative feedback. In return he too gave me one but I raised a claim with Ebay and it was then removed from my account.

I am sure it will matter to him as other buyers will be aware of the quality of service that this seller provides. Man he has all the guts to put his phone on call forward so that no one can contact him.
[Nexus 5 General] meethere:
is it advisable to buy other brannd wireless charger for our nex 5?

also which case is the best ? http://www.amazon.in/s/?_encoding=U...225&tag=couponscodesp-21&url=search-alias=aps
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
Case is a personal choice. If you plan to keep your phone slim then you should use the slim cases.

If you don't mind the bulk but want to enjoy more protection, then you should go for cases like the http://www.amazon.in/Amzer-96308-Do...&qid=1385573559&sr=8-5&keywords=amzer+nexus+5

Though I would check these cases on ebay too as Amazon has it costlier here. I bought a case for 599 on ebay from shopdrive and its amazing with better protection for the screen. These kind of cases save the screen in event of a fall to certain extent and also the hard plastic raises the back of your phone a little, hence saving the camera lens which protudes out of the phone body and is prone to scratches if used without any case.

Again I would say its totally personal choice.

This is the case that I ordered from ebay.

Got my nexus 5 yesterday from play store. 32 gb stormtrooper S/N 310k. Ordered on 20th 8:00 pm.

Amazing device. No defects. The only con is speaker volume low. A real step up from using Mmx Canvas 1 A100. :P

Using it with Rearth Ringke Fusion grey colour case. Grey looks super sexy on white N5.

Don't know how I messed up application of gadgetshieldz screen protector. Ended up with a few bubbles even after more than 24 hrs. So for those who are going for it, be extra carful!!
