I just ordered mine. The money on my prepaid credit card is gone but they emailed me saying they wont take the money until they have shipped and the estimated shipping date is on the 5th of November. Sadly though, I will only see this phone in December coz I'm away on business. I WANT IT SO BAD!!
[Nexus 5 General] P.Mobile:
hey i ordered mine from play store still waiting for email also.. but will i be able to use it on sprint they already said it will work on sprint but will sprint be selling a diff version tho?? or am i all set once i get the phone to just activate it on sprint?
[Nexus 5 General] lukas_s:
I've actually witnessed a UPS guy just chuck a package at my door. I have 3 steps that lead up to my door, and apparently that was too much for him.

It was just clothing, but still...
[Nexus 5 General] lkhafra:
It's hilarious how you check the door and the UPS guy is already in the truck :laugh:
[Nexus 5 General] Jeimygirl:
Finally! Ordered 5 mins from going live. 16 GB & 32 GB both black
[Nexus 5 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
So I ordered mine on the 31st about 3:30 PDT. The notice said will ship on Nov 22. Saturday I got a shipping email saying it is shipping on the 4th and will be delivered on the 6th. Then yesterday it changed to delivered the 5th. Last night it arrived in Seattle this morning package buddy popped up notification it is "Out For Delivery".
[Nexus 5 General] serialtoon:
So cant wait...damn doctors appointment i need to get to...
[Nexus 5 General] DroidDavi:
I wish i could just have bought this at a retail location. None of this shipping getting skipped mess just walk in and boom. Im not sure how best buys system works but theres a chrome/Google rep in every Best Buy in las vegas
[Nexus 5 General] cc16177:
Tell me about it... I ordered mine within an hour of launch but the order got duplicated 3 times and when Google finally sorted it out my shipping date went from Nov 8th to "2-3 weeks".

I've called twice and they can't do anything about it ... bummer.
[Nexus 5 General] RacerX780:
Picked up my N5 from UPS this morning... setting it up now.

It's bigger then my old fone - HTC Evo Design... so that will take some getting used to. I hate big phones... funny how they started as big bricks... got super tiny... now going back to big devices.

First google play purchase.. .went pretty well IMO.

Now the fun begins. :)
[Nexus 5 General] embhorn:
Woohoo! N5 is in-hand!

Order was placed: Thu, Oct 31, 2013 at 1:12 PM

Doing the update now.

Has anyone else setup with Straight Talk yet?
[Nexus 5 General] M4dRefluX:
I ordered mine on the 3rd, probably much later than most of you on here. Some of you have said that Google ships out without even giving confirmation of it.

Google says that they won't charge you unless they ship, and it's been on my statement since the day I ordered. Either they shipped it with no confirmation, or Google lied.

I'm puzzled :eek:
[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:
Mines doesn't say out for delivery yet its still saying destination scan its in my hometown
[Nexus 5 General] pens87pgh:
thats just the authorization google uses on your account just to approve the order and show you have the funds available. that usually drops off after a few days unless your order gets shipped, then it'll actually post to your account.
[Nexus 5 General] kingpinJK:
UPS dropped off for the day, no surprises. no phones. SUCKS.
[Nexus 5 General] flonker:
Two UPS trucks have driven past my house already, umm, wanna stop and give me my phone? lol.
[Nexus 5 General] abdel12345:
I ordered mine on the third too. I still haven't gotten a shipping confirmation which is expected because of my late order. But I saw someonelese Who ordered on the 3rd and got a confirm shipping for the 8th. So I hope I can get mine soon.
[Nexus 5 General] cutterjohn:
...well mine completed it's grand tour of uninteresting UPS hubs around the midwest, and arrive in my area early this morning, so I didn't have a chance to have it held for pickup... oh well, expecting it'll be delivered late this evening as my usual poor luck (maybe good since it's be delivered to home) with UPS(really early when I'm not receiving anything, really late when I'm expecting stuff)...
[Nexus 5 General] apurvaappu:
Out for Delivery

Mine is out on vehicle for delivery today. I chose 2 day UPS Air shipping..

[Nexus 5 General] Zandeer:

[Nexus 5 General] Djapatos:
Order last night at around 7, and it still pending.. Idk how much longer i can take this.. :(
[Nexus 5 General] jojo4747:

[Nexus 5 General] Soldier 2.0:
Out for delivery since 6am. It is almost noon now. Get here already!
[Nexus 5 General] Salviikiddd:
My order changed from 3-4 weeks to 2-3 today. Hopefully I get that shipping email soon! :D
[Nexus 5 General] sparhawk6:
I ordered 57 minutes after launch, white 32 GB. I still have a notice saying "leaves warehouse by Nov. 5". Well, it's Nov. 5, and nothing so far. :(
[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:
Lol What does yours say
[Nexus 5 General] gtso:
It says jax 11:25 pm destination scan.

And expected to be delivered by the end of day today.
[Nexus 5 General] jojo4747:
Finally shipped but does ups have time travel?
[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:
U aint get no delivery truck scan yet either?
[Nexus 5 General] UberUrban:
Nexus 5 Spreadsheet

Alright, so since everyone is asking when they placed their order and if they have received any news from Google, I thought it'd make sense to have a spreadsheet collect all this data instead of everyone asking everywhere.

If you have placed an order, please fill out this form. Also, do post this URL on other forums as well. The more data we have, the more things will make sense.

If you would like me to change anything in the form, do let me know. :good:
[Nexus 5 General] Enddo:
I ordered mine like an hour a 4 minutes after launch, black 16GB, it used to say leaves the warehouse by november 8th. but it's on the truck now.

same here! except since 4am. i usually get packages between noon and 4pm, but i can only imagine how many more packages they're gonna have today :(
[Nexus 5 General] gtso:
Nope :( you?
[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:
Nope not yet keep me posted and ill do the same
[Nexus 5 General] smirkis:
not sure what the heck happened. but its scheduled to be delivered today but some how stuck in NH? im in california lol
[Nexus 5 General] Ulver:
Now I wait...
[Nexus 5 General] Jeimygirl:
I'm in Jax and got mine.
[Nexus 5 General] gtso:
Lol did they update your tracking info? Mine still says destination scan. How's the device? Can't wait to have mine too xD hope it arrives sooner
[Nexus 5 General] ghettopops:
I ordered mine 16 minutes after release. Didn't get shipping info till 11/2, status didn't change until after I called both Google and UPS on Monday. Scanned by UPS in Kentucky 3:30pm, arrived MPLS 1:50am today. I went and picked it up at 8:30am. I love it 32gb White.
[Nexus 5 General] Jeimygirl:
Yes this morning it went out for delivery. Landed in Jax at 4am. I also had another package from Amazon the same day (go figure, it'd case)

So far it's awesome. But I'm having a hard time adjusting to the buttons on the bottom. I was used to my back, home, menus, and search buttons on my G2. Way fast. Very sharp screen. Lots of tweaking left to do.

Going to enjoy it stock for a while then look into ROMs.
[Nexus 5 General] sn0warmy:
You cannot be serious...
[Nexus 5 General] ddb540:
I was wrong, my device didn't arrive by 10:30am EST today. It arrived at 10:32am!

Unlocked bootloader, and am up and running!

[Nexus 5 General] mrro82:
My 32GB Panda was delivered this morning at 11:15. I won't be home until noon tomorrow. :crying: Oh well. At least I know where it is.
[Nexus 5 General] ceo.mtcl:
It's here!!!

Ups delivered a day early. Had to come back home from work to play with it. Lol.
[Nexus 5 General] Evo_Shift:
Getting mine today. Too bad none of the sprint stores around me have a clue so I won't be able to activate it until I get the SIM card Sprint shipped to me. Ordered at 3:10:04 PM CDT, much later than a lot of people here since I had no idea if the phone would work on Sprint at first. My original time said leaves warehouse by Nov. 8th. I did pay the two day shipping to St. Paul, MN.
[Nexus 5 General] ketonkss4:
So I just picked up my new nexus 5 panda 32 gig from the ups center. Happy as a clam. Then I open it, and it's beautiful. Then I look at the back.... and there is this small black scuff mark by the camera.... FML!!

Would you guys get a return because of a cosmetic issue like this?
[Nexus 5 General] larry_walker:
after waking up this morning to a still pending order that was placed three minutes after the phone launched, and seeing that the charge seemed to disappear from my debit card (not even pending anymore) i decided i'll order another one on a different card. pretty ridiculous, but i'm glad that most people aren't having any sort of problems.
[Nexus 5 General] Evo_Shift:
If the screen is perfect I'd consider keeping it but hard to say unless it happens to me. Can it be buffed out with a wet cloth or something?
[Nexus 5 General] cwest144:
got mine!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 5 General] Letitride:
Just a different perspective on package & shipping - (standard shipping used) - my order was processed & shipped out Friday, and made its way over the weekend to NY, arriving at a nearby UPS hub yesterday (Monday) morning around 11:30 AM and it's been sitting somewhere in the warehouse or still on the trailer. It is scheduled for Wednesday (11/6) delivery by end of the day - annoying & frustrating, but it is what it is - someone will be home to wait for our friendly UPS driver as his regular stop on the neighborhood route is around noon, sometimes an hour earlier but usually not later than 1:30 PM, and, so I wait.

Kind of funny to track its movement to see that the first 1,200 miles took 48 hours and the next 25 miles will take another 48 hours, as it will probably leave this regional UPS hub early tomorrow morning, maybe 4 or 5 AM & do another 25 miles to the opposite direction to the closest UPS hub or center that serve this area, and then get re-scanned again & be placed on the truck for delivery in the morning, and it will make it way on the route for probably 10 miles or so - and, ding our door bell. Am I suppose to get "upset" at Google for not making this delivery sooner or should I question & challenge UPS on its distribution & delivery setup - Google "promised" a leave warehouse by 11/5 (that's today) and even had I paid extra $5 for 2-day Air, the earliest that I should expect it is tomorrow or Thursday.

Instead of getting all worked up for nothing, I'm going to sit back & read about all the discoveries, bugs & problems, etc. as folks rush to unlock the bootloader, root it & start debloating it, etc. Besides, the protective case isn't here yet as I choose not to go with OEM bumper and to go with third-party case from Spigen

Amazon's order for Spigen Hybrid case & screen protector was placed last Friday, 11/1 and shipped out by UPS - Mail Innovation, the lower cost option partnering with USPS. Have the tracking # and shipper notified, ready since last Friday quickly - but, it is still useless - and as of this moment - no change in status or updates on the website link, cannot even tell if it is still in CA or reach the regional/local hub here on Long Island (NY) for handoff to delivery by postal.

Waiting is the game here - it involves patience, and all things considered - would I rather camp out the other brand's retail brick-n-mortar store for 2 or 3 days just to buy it on the spot over the retail counters.

Congrats to those that already received your N5 ahead - there will always be someone in front of the line, just turn around & look behind you - plenty waiting for their turns. Cheers & think positively - Google could've announced it on 10/31 - accept pre-ordering only, conduct random lotttery to determine who would receive them first, and tag on a premium pricing for rush delivery, and hold them for a massive shipping scheme just before Thanksgiving, and we would all be huffing & puffing with arms & fists raised, demanding ... :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 General] sidbowles:
This one made me lol
[Nexus 5 General] ketonkss4:
Hey the wet cloth worked! Great call!
[Nexus 5 General] dehsA:
Is it possible to specify the time for the UPS guy to come?

I'm having mine shipping to a relative's house and on weekdays, nobody is home during the day so I would prefer them to come after office hours.
[Nexus 5 General] ceo.mtcl:
You can but you have to pay extra for it. Call them and talk to them if they can. You'll get a more accurate answer from them.
[Nexus 5 General] ketonkss4:
Not trying to rub it in to those who haven't got theirs yet but, I have no idea why reviews were calling this phone plain...it's a work of art it looks so much nicer than the N4 and it's way more comfortable to hold.
[Nexus 5 General] Jeimygirl:
You can on some shipments if the sender allows it. I couldn't with my Google purchase but can with Amazon. It costs $5 though.
[Nexus 5 General] J4B3:
Is this right? I just received a shipping notification for my 32GB White that I ordered on Saturday (shipping to California). I was given a 2-3 week estimate when I ordered :)
[Nexus 5 General] Makoers:
GOT MY SHIPPING EMAIL. Ordered around 8 on Friday night the 1stt bought a 32gb white . Noblesville Indiana. I'm guessing the Indiana area nexus are shipping now. Was 2-3 weeks but clearly google was playing it safe with the estimates. I really hope everyone's gets shipped soon so they can experience this joy lol.
[Nexus 5 General] Tomeygun:
Me too!

Ordered 11/3 around 3pm. Received shipping notification minutes ago.
[Nexus 5 General] Makoers:
MEE TOO but for Indiana . The second wave is going out haha
[Nexus 5 General] bubbinator91:
God I hope you're right. I ordered my 16GB black at 6:45pm on Friday, and i'm in West Lafayette.
[Nexus 5 General] markp99:
Arrived. Looking great!

Man, that's a lot of glass! Need to get me some protection, pronto!
[Nexus 5 General] duckied:
Yay I finally receive the phone today it is awesome, no loose buttons or dead pixel. The screen is gorgeous. Vibrator feels weird but still awesome.
[Nexus 5 General] Bxsteez:
Get on the shafted bandwagon....
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
So much for 3-4 weeks. Mine just shipped and will be here tomorrow! Sadly, I cant keep it :crying:

Gotta return it. I bought a phone from tmobile and cant afford to pay the $50 restocking fee. Anyone know how to get rid of that?
[Nexus 5 General] Makoers:
Right on man hopefully you get your email tomorrow by the latest. What shipping did you get ? I got 2day.
[Nexus 5 General] lkhafra:
Yes my Nexus 5 and Neo Hybrid case came.
[Nexus 5 General] SwimDrewid:
Same here

:good:
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
When did you buy it? Why would you buy a phone when you have one coning to you, unless you have no backup? Only time I've gotten out off it was because the phone was dead in the water after an ota. Took it to the store and they verified that was the issue and didn't charge me. You have to ask for a manager and be as polite but firm as possible. If you have a good reason you might get it waived.
[Nexus 5 General] 1stx2:
Why did you do that? Which model did you get?
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
I bought it just less than a month ago. (CA has a return policy of 30 days, not 14)I didn't know when the nexus 5 was coming out and I got impatient. Stupidity on my part. Thanks for the suggestions. Worst cast, I might just eat the $50. Not buy coffee for a month :)
[Nexus 5 General] bubbinator91:
Yeah I got the 2 day. With the massive unpredictability of the shipping, and the amount of leaks before launch, I swear that Google's whole purpose with the Nexus 5 and KitKat is to troll as many people as possible.
[Nexus 5 General] Makoers:
If you got a note 3 then yeah keep the note it'll retain its value more . Could find a buddy to loan you sme cash and hold the phone til you repay haha
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
Yeah note 3. The only problem is I'm reading about all the problems with the buttons and loose vibration motor and all that. My note 3 is flawless.

Google allows open box returns right?
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
I'd say try to get out of it. If not the nexus is worth eating $50 bucks. Depends on what you bought though?
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
Look at my sig. Note 3 :)

I did it on the jump plan so I don't even "own" the phone so I cant sell it or anything.
[Nexus 5 General] Pulsu:
Shipped. :) Ordered mine Sunday 3th. (White 16Gb from Germany playstore) Using proxy and mailboxde. So few days to go when it's here. (Finland) :)
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
Take it back! I am using the app so I can't see sigs. :/ you can technically sellnthebphone but you'd have to use that money to pay off the remaining balance and I am not sure if you'd be able to use jump again. Unless you bought another phone outright. Going to use jump to hopefully get a nexus 5 on Tmobile. I know I'll be paying more but I won't have to be dealing with this ups fiasco and I can return it and exchange it just as quick if there are issues. I did the same with my previous n4 before my HTC one. Plus I don't have 400$ laying around. My transmission comes first.
[Nexus 5 General] FatalityBoyZahy:
Still waiting :(
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
I think I will at this point. I just want to open my nexus 5 to see if it has any problems. If it does, then I think I'll wait 6 months and jump to the n5 when it comes to tmobile.
[Nexus 5 General] lwfb:
Misery loves company.

Since it's inception, I think I've welcomed at least 6-10 people into The Shafted.

Just an update, I called Google again today and got the same old story. They can't even confirm when it's going to be sent to UPS, only that it should go out to them today at which point I'll be charged and receive a shipping email.

In 15 minutes it'll be 5 days exactly since I ordered and I'm still pending.

I find it painfully ironic how a company that made billions from providing easy access to information has no information regarding why my order is still pending.
[Nexus 5 General] Makoers:
Well I say pop the nexus open and if you don't like it then sell it on ebay.
[Nexus 5 General] finalrequiem:
I can't decide what being in Oklahoma means for me and when my order will ship. I'm afraid that Google may decide that someone in Oklahoma even knowing how to order something online is too far-fetched to be anything but a joke...

Ordered on the first around 1:30 PM or so. Still "pending", although the friendly folks at Google have confirmed that my order was in fact successful and to take anything the Google Wallet order screen says with a grain of salt because of the high order volume.

Waiting patiently-

Mostly.
[Nexus 5 General] Carver1:
I'm coming from a Note 3 as well.. no regrets.

The lack of anything going on with the N3 section is bad for me.. I'll gladly give up battery life/expandable storage to be able to root/rom and do whatever I should be able to do on an Android device.
[Nexus 5 General] DroidDavi:
seeing more people ordering after me getting shipping info sucks
[Nexus 5 General] shdw03:
ordered kinda late on the 31st @ 1:30 hst. 16g black, 2-day ship , was 2-3 weeks, notification on the 3rd of label/ship, delivering today(arrived in hawaii at 12:20am)

Have co-worker that ordered at 9am on the 31st, standard ship, ship confirmation same day, phone in KY or OK..... $4 well spent!
[Nexus 5 General] modstorm:
I ordered mine 20 minutes after launch and I still have no shipping info. I was thinking that it might be because I ordered 1 16GB White, 1 32GB White and 2 Black 32GB (one for me and the rest for my friends). Could this be the reason for my delay ?

I need the phone quickly so I was thinking about ordering another one now on it's own(just for me), would it take just as long to arrive or would I be likely to recieve it earlier seeing that it is inly 1 phone and not 4 ?

Thanks :)

Interesting. I don't think I'm getting my N5 anytime soon. Probably 2-3 weeks. Ordered 32GB Black on 11/2. :(
[Nexus 5 General] DroidDavi:
i ordered late on launch day but im seeing friday and saturday orders going out . Im fine with waiting just wish it was in order.

I do believe last year people with bigger orders waited longer
[Nexus 5 General] sn0warmy:
Here's a question I haven't been able to find an answer to:

My package is in transit and scheduled for delivery Thursday via 3-5 day ground. If I were to call UPS and have the local sort facility hold it for pickup, what are the odds I'd be able to pick it up tomorrow afternoon/evening as apposed to waiting for it to be delivered Thursday? Has anyone attempted this?
[Nexus 5 General] mjs2011:
Woohoo! Ordered Sunday and just got a shipping notification!
[Nexus 5 General] bhyde:
Feeling some kinda way

So yesterday (11/4/2013) me and my friend each ordered White 32GB and promptly got the 2-3 week interval shipping date of 11/22/2013. Today my friend has his tracking number and it was scanned out of the Louisville, Ky location for delivery tomorrow 11/6/2013. So, i'm excited hoping mine will ship like today or tomorow as well but then seeing some of you here ordered last week and still have nothing I have no idea what the situation is...

Anyone else get waaay faster than expected shipping?
[Nexus 5 General] jzpeepz:
When I ordered (launch night) I got 3-4 weeks, then they lowered it to 2-3 weeks, then Sunday I got a shipping notice and I have it in hand now. There does not seem to be rhyme or reason.
[Nexus 5 General] AndrasLOHF:
Just got off the phone with Google Play rep again. Was just now told that financial institution is playing a big role on how the orders are being processed. Literally was told that 2 people could place an order at the same time using cards from 2 different institutions and one could get a shipping date much sooner than the other. Not really sure how much weight that holds. Guess I could grab all all my credit cards place an order on each one see which one get the quickest shipping, and cancel/return/sell the rest.
[Nexus 5 General] modstorm:
So it's probably because of the size of the order ? Right after purtchasing they were marked to leave the warehouse on the 5th (today) however now the order is just as pending :( Does pending mean that I am affected by the current stock ? The 32GB black is marked as out of stock so I'm not sure if it means that it is out of stock for me or if my order is 'reserved'.
[Nexus 5 General] dills84:
Went home and grabbed this little guy from the UPS man... complete with gray bumper case :)
[Nexus 5 General] bgaccord:
Got mine today. Really loving it.
[Nexus 5 General] MiPaDo:
Waiting for UPS is like watching paint dry. I feel like a kid always checking the window. The Jehovah's witnesses probably mistook my enthusiasm a few hours ago when they came knocking
[Nexus 5 General] 1stx2:
Woot! Just placed an order for a 32gb black. Yea I know im late to the party.:o
[Nexus 5 General] mkenya4t:
Mine just got delivered!! Wooot Woooot!!!

32 GB Black

Ordered at 1.52 pm CDT launch day, delivery to Kansas City.

Keep the faith gentlemen!!
[Nexus 5 General] n1gh7m4r3:
I don't know about the scuff, but if mine comes with whatever that is on the camera lens not aligned with the center of the lens and the flash, I'm going to go nuts.
[Nexus 5 General] onmike:
Just received my Nexus 5.

This officially ends my iPhone era. Excluding the one day I owned a Galaxy S3. This marks the first time since 2007 I've owned anything other than an iPhone.
[Nexus 5 General] aooga:
You paid $40 for a case? You're nuts man. :) How did you even get it? It says "coming soon".
