Let's hope when he phoned up to say what he thought of ParcelForce and they hung up on him, he hadn't given his details.. and the package has now accidentally fallen under one of the lorries... ;)
[Nexus 5 General] TheBishopOfSoho:
Im in exactly the same boat, but mine is in Coventry, and Parcelforce have no idea where it is right now as they cant find it at the depot there... My order time on the email is 18:00:03 last thursday so had to have been one of the first to order in UK, but likely going to be days later than most others now :(
[Nexus 5 General] raines43:
Mine has arrived, oh happy day! Driver, from Leeds depot said he's got loads of them to deliver.
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Hmm, certainly hope so...wait time is now 2-3 weeks. They may prioritise RMAs though :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 General] Hereisphilly:
God dammit! Seems as if there was an address problem on the label, half of it was cut off, so the driver couldn’t deliver!

Rang up PF and sorted out the delivery address, but there is nothing they can do today, so its down for a tomorrow delivery now

Asked if i could collect from the depot tonight, but apparently the depot closes to the public before the vans get back! Ludicrous!
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Dude, I may be stupid but im not that stupid. I phoned up without giving any details other than I was one of the nexus 5 orders ;) :silly:

[Nexus 5 General] Blocoholi:
Anyone get theirs from the Charlton/south east depot too? Still waiting...
[Nexus 5 General] paddylaz:
Wimbledon
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Nope...you have to speak in an American accent :p
[Nexus 5 General] undercover:
Ok. Then eastern european london american? Please?
[Nexus 5 General] Hereisphilly:
Tell me about it! I have never ever known a depot close to the public until the whole damn thing is shut, that's the whole point of holding the deliveries back when the vans get in, so us poor saps can go get stuff.

Give me DPD any day, gotta love that hour window slot and map tracker

The thing with the cut off address was that its was only the company name that was in half, (as the company name is quite long). The rest of the address was all there, and my work is the only thing on the street, so if the driver had even tried i'm sure he could have figured it out!
[Nexus 5 General] tosin01:
Mine and the wife's have been delivered to my home. (I'm at work) around 20mins ago. London South East.:)

Black 32 gb for me white 16 gb for her. Ordered Thursday around 6:30.

Good luck guys waiting for theirs.
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
That will do :)
[Nexus 5 General] Blocoholi:
Good to hear... Are you living close to crystal palace?
[Nexus 5 General] MrBelter:
that will be why mine doesnt work then :D
[Nexus 5 General] Beige Thunder:
Have any of the Cardiff contingent received a delivery yet? Still sitting here with a useless tracking code and I've had a response from Parcelforce claiming it still hasn't been collected despite getting a shipped email from Google early on Friday morning (along with a delivered confirmation bizarrely).

Oh well, serves me right for being a shameless techophile, death by appalling tracking software.
[Nexus 5 General] maxal:
Me too I contacted Parcel Force and they told me the same.
[Nexus 5 General] shrewdgeek:
MIne got just delivered to my freight forwarder service (Daventry, UK) and now i would be shipping it to sweden....
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
You can change this afterwards too. You'll also notice that the voice recognition is noticeably poor compared to English UK. Hopefully google releases always-on with UK keyboard soon, it's a neat little thing.
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Exactly just general poor service.
[Nexus 5 General] tosin01:
About a 20 min drive from crystal palace. :D
[Nexus 5 General] DHTC:
You gave no details? Sorry but unless the delivery drivers know what is in every parcel in the depot I doubt they knew what they were delivering was a nexus 5.

Anyway I just got back from work and recieved mine. Its surprising how much lighter and thinner it feels compared to my nexus 4. Personal opinion but does anyone feel its less of a premium feel to the nexus 4?

Mines a white 32gb and can't wait to mess with it a bit more in a bit.

Hope you guys get yours today.
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Just an interesting observation...the 32GB Nexus 5 only has an actual storage of 26GB. That's 6GB lost in system files. So glad I didn't get the 16GB!
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
As other people have said.. im pretty sure they know which are nexus 5s and not.. you know they sign a big contract for them and then thousands of identical boxes appear from Google? it doesn't exactly take a detective to put the pieces together?
[Nexus 5 General] eddie_gordo:
Actually I've seen a review from a 16GB one and it had 12.x GB free storage out of the box. Not sure why the 32GB has 6GB in use out of the box, though..
[Nexus 5 General] Beige Thunder:
Have you contacted Google like they said to? I'm preoccupied in work at the moment but I imagine they will just tell me to wait a few more days, which I will be doing anyway if my immortality plans stay on track.
[Nexus 5 General] Barff1984:
Does it make the keyboard american too? Including the spell checking....I don't want to spell Armour as Armor or Centre as Center. My family and friends would think I've gone full retard if i started spelling like that.
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Perhaps the 32GB has some additional features that constitute the extra 2GB? :D

anyone else from Reading / Berks area waiting for delivery from Reading (Satellite) Depot :(
[Nexus 5 General] maxal:
Hi, yes I have contacted Google and they have passed it to a team that will be contacting Parcelforce to chase it up, they have also emailed me to confirm the same.
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
I bloody hope not![/QUOTE]

Yep, just tested it. Tried to write 'colour' and it gave me 'color'. The proper spelling was one of those tap to save in dictionary options. Not worth the hassle IMHO. Especially with the weird voice recognition.

E.g. 'Get me directions to Windsor'

Came back as 'get me directions to badlands'....wtf....:eek:

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Hmm, just said the same thing and it worked fine! Perhaps I have a bit of American blood in me? :o
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
Maybe they're going furthest out to closest so they're next to the depot when the day ends. It's only half 2 bro.
[Nexus 5 General] DHTC:
Yeah they possibly might know which I agree with. But when you complained about it to them, they fulfilled what they were paid to do by Google which was not a Saturday delivery. So why complain? And plus you got play credit as compensation even though it was still on track to be delivered to you on time.

I'm not defending Parcelforce as I have complained to them before about leaving a parcel in plain sight.

I'd understand if you do not actually recieve it in the stated time but so far its looking like most will.
[Nexus 5 General] Rarelyamson:
City of London!

A friend of mine in the next street has just had his delivered, no sign of mine! :(
[Nexus 5 General] Kamran9558:
That is what i think is going on probably, but usually couriers deliver the packages by 11:00 / 12:00 most of the times so was getting a lil concerned.
[Nexus 5 General] Khaiyan:
Who else is digging the ceramic hardware button? Looks much better than plastic ones on the Nexus 4, feels more premium too.
[Nexus 5 General] Drew474:
Still waiting up in central scotland, hopefully be here soon, waited in all day and add to that its a stunning day outside!
[Nexus 5 General] ifti_a:
You purchased the white ?
[Nexus 5 General] the803:
Ordered 16GB White from Play Store on Friday night, received it this morning!
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Oh no, I believe you have miss understood me. Saturday delivery should really have been included but thats not what I was complaining about. I was asking why my device which had been an hour drive away from me had been taken all the way to manchester.. I never expected delivery on Saturday.. Turns out they gave me someone elses tracking code and they have fixed that all now :)

The play store credit was just a nice bonus.
[Nexus 5 General] southyjd:
See I feel quite bad, I ordered off play, they said it would be ages so I got one from CFW, tried to cancel and it wouldn't let me so its out for delivery today.

will be returning or selling
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Sell it on mate, they go for a health profit right now on ebay ;)
[Nexus 5 General] FlexiPack:
Damn I missed the delivery. Has anyone had their N5 left with a neighbour? Or does it go back to the depot?
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
Feels good doesn't it? They're nice and clicky too. Like apples ones.

Anyone else terrified of removing the camera lens plastic? :s
[Nexus 5 General] braingravyuk:
Found it a pain in the arse to remove, though I don't have nails! Ended up using the SIM eject tool :victory:
[Nexus 5 General] supercakefish:
Those loony fools really should stop buying those. Why people buy these for hundreds more than the Play Store price I will never understand. They're just crazy and rich with money to burn.
[Nexus 5 General] danmullen:
Got my black 32GB Nexus 5 delivered today - a pleasant surprise considering they said it wouldn't ship until 8th Nov :)
[Nexus 5 General] riz157:
Mine just got delivered first impressions .....interesting. I hate lg smartphones but I couldn't resist nexus.

Love the design and feel.
[Nexus 5 General] Rarelyamson:
Anyone else still waiting patiently #cough in central London?:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 General] Evil_munki:
Ordered my Black 16GB from a high street retailer online. Hopefully gets dispatched soon, however it's OOS on the website it says.
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Exactly, all the more reason to tell it to them. They clearly are begging to buy them at such a bad price.
[Nexus 5 General] Kid_droid:
Driver didn't know what was in the box and apparently only a few i told at the depot for security reasons to avoid trucks being robbed and some workers maybe tempted to help themselves too. So at times they just know it's orders. But have been boxed already.

Mine arrived earlier today. A much better experience than with the n4, I waited 6 weeks for that! Impressions so far... Slick. Camera seems like an improvement over the n4 so far but will be able to check better tonight. I can't get the voice activated "Google now" to work though, I must be missing something.
[Nexus 5 General] ShiroEd:
Just spoke to a guy at Parcelforce and he told me that the truck with mine in it was misdirected this morning from London North West Depot to the Acton depot, unloaded then reloaded on to another truck which left at 13:46.

He also told me (while chuckling) that it had over 500 mobile phones. Nice!

HURRY UP!!! :silly:

[Nexus 5 General] mb1984:
Have been lurking this thread for a couple of days while waiting for any sort of movement regarding shipping of my 32GB black N5. Well it's arrived in the last half hour and there is a dead pixel slap bang in the centre of the screen :(

Don't know what to do, it's going to bug me if I keep it but I'm guessing a replacement from the play store is going to be a few weeks now. Disappointed.
[Nexus 5 General] Oli1122:
Phone them and complain, im sure they will work something out ;) and if its 16gb then send it back and buy it from Carphone warehouse ;)

Brilliant. Tweeted Parcel Force to find out why there was no update on my delivery, they came back and said it was still at point of origin but would be delivered tomorrow, so I leave work and go home.

Get home to find that the phone was delivered about 5mins after I left the office...... Fffffffuuuuuuhnnngggghhhhhhh!
[Nexus 5 General] Tom540:
Has anyone bought an N5 from Carphone Warehouse in the last couple of days? They say they should have delivery of the black by 15th of November, but I may try a couple of stores in case they have some stock left?

Hi guys. Got mine today. It a very lovely phone it I am not sure about one thing.. Does anyone of you has some speaker noise when listening to someone in conversation? Mine does have some funny buzzing when caller speak.. I don't think that's right. It's like speaker is vibrating at higher volume..

Edit: if I drop the volume down fee notches speaker sounds fine..
[Nexus 5 General] undercover:
Mine is very little and so uniform that it might be just backlight. No complaints so far. BTW white is not soft touch at all, but it isn't smooth like galaxy type of plastic either.
