I'm using the one that came with my Spigen Ultra Fit. It's been great so far, actually it's the best feeling screen protector I've had on a phone. I usually clean it once a day or so to get rid of unwanted fingerprints, etc...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] tomaslxix:
I'm with this person^

I didn't put one on to see how good Gorilla Glass 3 is. I recieved a Spigen one with my case and decided I'd wait until I saw anything that made the screen look not-brand new, and then apply it. Well last night I noticed the least significant, hard to see little surface blemish, so I put it on. Honestly, because the Nexus 5 screen is flat and symmetrical, it's incredibly easy to make a screen protector, unlock curved screen/front phones like the Galaxys. If you had put this screen protector on without telling me, I wouldn't have known it was there. Spigen gets my vote this time.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] shahidhussain:
I never used screen protectors but I think it is one of the things which might prove good in unlikely event you drop your phone face down. I had a Nexus 4 before Nexus 5 and used it more than 6 months without screen protector and any case. I would normally put it my jeans pocket and there were no scratches (of any sort) on front or back of Nexus 4.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Deeco7:
No.

Unless your clumsy, devices nowadays comes with screens that are more than sustainable to being scratched easily.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cntrdctn:
I agree. I prefer having it and not need it. Than needing it and not having it. Cheap way to protect your phone and it helps with resale value. I really liked my screen protector from zagg on the s3.I'm currently using the free one spigen included with their case. I notices really difficult to wipe off finger prints. But its was free so i can't complain too much.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fotaz:
The oleophobic coating on the Nexus 5 seems to scratch much easier than any other phone I've had. I've been using it unprotected for a few days and already started seeing some minor scratches to the coating. So I started using a screen protector again, but I'm going to miss the glorious feeling of glass on my fingers that screen protectors take away from me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] venturizhou:
I agree that the screen doesn't get scratched very easily but what really annoys me is when I have the screen off and at the right angle see those tiny micro scratches that are not really visible straight forward. But it is just something that erks me since I know that they are there.

Hi All

I just missed out on the O2 £162 offer :evil:

So I am looking to see if there are any other cheap offers, I am not bothered by the monthly part as I will use my work SIM.

Any ideas

Regards

ben
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] knowsleyroader:
Still maybe 02 online at £149 and £19 per month for 50 xnet mins and 200 texts. 12 month contract.

Thats what I got my wizard on although the wizard was only £99.

So the exec works out at £377

You might get one cheaper on T Mobile but it may be one of those sending your bills in and you get a cheque back type deals.

In fact there is a website that will give you the total outlay for any phone with all networks. Forget the addy though.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] richardkemp:
I would be very interested in that website roader :-D

Shame about missing the amazing Data 5 deal.. I would've done that :-(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] richk:
You could maybe go for that online offer and change your tariff to the lowest available after 6 months if you're not planning to use the sim :roll:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hus52:
got a few simfree ones here in any1 wants, pick up in south london, looking for £400 each (got 3)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Johny1fin:
Hi,

Got my O2 Exec for free.

What you need to do is

A) Get your daughter who is on o2max to get a free upgrade and give it to you for christmas.

B) Put your 3 sim card in it out of your Nokia 6630

C) In return you take out a contract on o2 online at £19 for 100 mins and give the new free Samsung 730 phone/bluetooth headset/Samsung printer to your daughter for Christmas.

D) Put the new o2 sim in an old Nokia 6600 and give to wifey.

E) Sell your 6 month old Nokia 6630 on ebay, hopefully.

Result - everyone happy. Thanks o2

Cost so far £19/month for wifes contract.

Happy new year everyone.

John
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] SiliconS:
:lol:

So your daughter's going from O2Max (1000 mins a month) to 100 mins contract? Hmm. I reckon there might be hidden costs in your plan there John. ;)

:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] knowsleyroader:

Cracking website m8. Just click on all handsets and have browse

A quick look reveals

M5000 on orange would be £480.99

MDA Pro T Mobile would be £512.99

XDA Exec on O2 would be £377.99

Imate Jas Jar on O2 would be £649.99

Hi SiliconS,

My daughter keeps her old sim on O2max(100mins) with the Samsung I bought and my wife gets 100Mins on my old 6600. No way can my daughter manage with 1000mins. part of the deal when she upgraded was to get double mins for 6 months ie 2000 mins. She is a bit of a yakker. Wife does not know how to use a mobile and will probably use 20mins max.

Whilst I am on, must say what a great site. Already baught Pocketbreeze 5 and iLauncher. Trying out pocket weather now.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsak13:
After installing cm10.2, why do I still only have 24GB total space? I thought the lighter ROM would free up some of the 32GB capacity.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkobas:
Youd have to repartition for that. Whichbi dont think its possible with locked bootloader.

You have more space on system partition
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incep:
I'm hoping this comes along eventually. I was expecting there to be a bloated /sys partition, but I had no idea it would be THAT huge :< maybe I can use it as a backup parition, as long as I mind the backup sizes.
[Nexus 5 General] owendesira:
Was blown away. Felt like just writing it. Whoa. What a screen. The colours, the clarity! Am disappointed that some app icons look meh, but that's the devs' problem really, hope they put some effort soon, like they did with Facebook Messenger.
[Nexus 5 General] thedadio:
I regularly deliver to lg head office and went in yesterday. I saw the g2 and nexus. Well impressed. If only the nexus has a 5.5 inch screen id buy it
[Nexus 5 General] owendesira:
Oh I'd still go for it! just a .6. :p
[Nexus 5 General] jbdan:
This is kind of an understated spec on this phone, at least here. Some online reviews point out it's greatness. I for one think it is by far the nicest looking screen I've ever seen on a cell phone. It really makes amoled look bad. Really bad. Imo
[Nexus 5 General] umesswitme:
Aside from the HTC one I completely agree.
[Nexus 5 General] jackpf:
Screen is great provided you got one without dead pixels!

Also been reading about the yellow tint but I've either not got it on mine or don't notice it.
[Nexus 5 General] owendesira:
Dead pixels? Ugh, that must suck. Have you tried contacting Google?
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
The screen actually hurt my eyes initially lol. Trying to get used to it and no i don't wear glasses I got 20/15 vision. I guess I'm way too used to Amoled screens.
[Nexus 5 General] chrisnk204:
You ppl are over exaggerating the screen looks good but it is poorly calibrated. I cant wait for Paranoid Android to drop their rom with their display enhancements like they did with the nexus 4
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
Screen is beautiful especially with Franco kernel and Cataclysm rom but like i said my eyes have to adjust because it hurts using the screen. Too many years of AMOLED.
[Nexus 5 General] chk27:
At first I thought you were being ironic.

The screen is not that good, it lacks contrast and has very bad viewing angles.

If viewed from an angle you'll see the white from retroillumination, the more the angle, the more the white and the loss of contrast.

You should put this side by side with a G2. That is a beautiful screen.

By the way, if you look closely under direct sunlight you'll see a pattern of thin lines, I suppose it's the digitizer. Does anyone know why it is visible in this phone while it isn't on others
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
I've actually seen that on a number of phones. The Optimus G comes to mind.
[Nexus 5 General] jackpf:
Yeah I've got a replacement on the way. Annoying because I find my device perfect in every other way
[Nexus 5 General] Pard0ned:
But, the G2 and N5 both have the same screen. Just the g2 is bigger.

G2: 5.2" IPS LCD 1920x1080 (424 ppi)

Nexus 5: 4.95" IPS LCD with Corning Gorilla Glass 3

1080×1920 (445 ppi)

I don't understand how there could be any difference in what are (apart from the diagonal size) exactly the same screens. :S
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
Just because they have the same resolution and underlying technology (IPS LCD) doesn't mean that they're the same panel.
[Nexus 5 General] jbdan:
No over exaggeration here. And you're wrong. It's very accurately color calibrated. So much so that there are a couple reviews on it reiterating this and the fact it is the most accurately color calibrated screens they've ever reviewed . If you are talking about contrast, that's another can of worms.....
[Nexus 5 General] owendesira:
Oh I had those on my N4, The lines can appear on some phones more than on others of the same model. Can be kinda annoying, I agree.
[Nexus 5 General] owendesira:
Mhm, hope you get your replacement soon!
[Nexus 5 General] rogem_kk:
Lines or dots, all screens show it in sunlight and it is the digitizer. The screens are designed to be looked at straight on or to perform best for 99% of the time. If you want a screen that has over 450 cdm brightness, 4000:1 contrast ratio with .1 cdm black level, 180 degree viewing angles and any sort of energy consumption efficiency then you are welcome to pay $500+ just for the panel. Stop complaining!

[Nexus 5 General] jRi0T68:
Never get upset with them, for starters. It's difficult, I know from extensive experience, but their hands are tied to within their policies and they won't want to help if you tell them off like they probably deserve.

This is how I've played these games and won countless times.

Politely calmly ask:

"So, there is nothing you can do?"

"No, I'm sorry sir, there isn't"

"What is your employee ID#, who is your superior, and how do I contact them? I'd like to pass on a good work for your efforts"

Rinse, repeat. Insist to pass to a superior. They'll tell you nobody can help. Tell them you feel like you deserve to hear it from their boss.

I once had a vp with Sprint (verified that they really were via background checks: on the phone with me to resolve an issue by asking "Well, if you can't help me, someone can approve this. Who can?"

Just keep climbing the ladder.

That story has put me off buying from CPW for life. Thanks for sharing how they see fit to treat a customer who has spent hundreds of pounds in their store.
[Nexus 5 General] jaaystott:
I don't blame you, going to try my luck again later with their complaints department. I will update the thread. I think a lot of it depends on who you speak to as well, it's not necessarily speaking to a manager that matters, it's speaking to someone that can relate to your experience.
[Nexus 5 General] setspeed:
Good luck, I hope you end up with a decent resolution, but I fear that even if you were to get the phone you want, all the extra money you gave them and spent on petrol is lost. I really wanted an N5 on release day and I even went to my local CPW to take a look at them - thank God they weren't selling the 32GB because I would've bought it there and then. It might've taken a few days longer from Google, but at least I know they won't jerk me around if I have to return it (I returned my N4 last year because I didn't like it enough to keep it over my S3, no issues with refund at all).
[Nexus 5 General] jRi0T68:
I mentioned managers because sometimes the person you're speaking to doesn't have the power to make that decision on your behalf, and must go by policy. Someone in the chain, however, can choose to bypass policy. Talk to them if you don't get what you want (as long as it's realistic).

[Guide] Headphone/Earphone Buying
[Nexus 5 General] jaaystott:
Oh no I completely agree with you there! Sorry I meant you multi-quote. I mean the gateway though, I believe a realistic demand is to have the Nexus 5 for £295 and a refund of £150 which I paid the difference on for my LG G2. This is fair, right?
[Nexus 5 General] Cactus42:
I'd get yourself to citizens advice just to get something in writing and report them to trading standards - they're spinning you a line. No refunds on Sim Free?? Any product sold by a retailer in the UK is subject to the Sale of Goods act. You can return an item for a full refund if it's not as described, of satisfactory quality or fit for purpose. The rules don't just stop there but they're the basics

If you fancy a read and have some time: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1979/54

Edit - forgot to add, you're entitled to a full "cash" refund too, you don't have to accept store credit..
[Nexus 5 General] michaelkenward:
Good advice here. I would also get the credit card company involved.

You did pay by credit card didn't you? If not, silly billy.

This is a good way of dragging someone else into the fray on your side and applying pressure on recalcitrant suppliers.

I got my N5 from CPW and i'm on my 3rd handset (which is no fault of CPW).

Each time i've taken it back they've been helpful and each time they've given me a new handset they've pulled the outer sleeve off to show it's a new and factory sealed box...

I suppose the service you get depends on which store you go to :/

Also i have to ask...

You got a sim free phone meaning you would have already had another working phone/sim?

Why didnt you just wait for the nexus 5 to get back into stock again? :/
