Seen another black one at my school, a white one on the street, and the lady managing the cash register at the dollar tree had a red one. Live in Fresno California. Its funny when I pull out my n5 near people with iPhone they're like "wow that's a big phone"

Here in my small town (<50k) I've never seen anyone else with a Nexus Anything. I only see iPhones and Galaxy S's.

I bought a Google bumper case because of the odd gray color and I really dislike bulkier cases.
[Nexus 5 General] stopa46:
None of my friends dont know what actually is "nexus line" since Galaxy nexus til Nexus5 They always tought i have Samsung galaxy S.... phone. I t makes me feel kinda special ;)
[Nexus 5 General] DVTeixeira:
Haven't seen them "in the wild" but I have seen 2 2012 Nexus 7's - 2 of my friends have got. And I also have a friend who has a Nexus 4. No Nexus 5's or 10's or 2013 7's yet. I'm the only one with my 5...
[Nexus 5 General] crazyguns:
It's so strange, in 6 months I've travelled across London, Birmingham and not once in the train or tube or bus or anywhere did I see another Nexus 5 user... Sometimes I feel like we're the special minority.
[Nexus 5 General] zimlokks:
I finally saw one in the wild, quite nice to see someone else using a nexus phone at work :3
[Nexus 5 General] aikelo:
Saw a white one on the tube last weekend, on my way to the Metallica show in Stockholm. The dude with the white N5 was on his way to pick up his start kit to the maraton race.
[Nexus 5 General] pgptheoriginal:
In the last few weeks months I saw many n5's: a lot of engineering students have one: we're at least 6-7 in my course, but I saw many others while walking in the university.

I noticed at least 10 more Nexus 5's in the streets of the city, too: this phone has become rather popular, I've never seen so many "Nexus" logos before :D

Maybe because most people buy off-contract phones here in Italy, so the aggressive price tag of the N5 is more important than in the USA.

2 people showed up to my birthday party with Nexus 5's. Haven't seen anymore around in public.
[Nexus 5 General] Stealthy Lynx:
Only seen one person with the N5, except my friend.
[Nexus 5 General] ShadowCodeGaming:
The only other person I know with a Nexus 5 is my mom, because I told her to buy one.
[Nexus 5 General] beanboy89:
I work in retail electronics. Earlier today, I lady comes up to me asking for the price of a phone case. It's a rubber/silicone case for a Galaxy S4. I see her holding a white Nexus 5 in her hand. I tell her the price of the case, and then I mention "that case won't work with the Nexus 5. We don't carry any Nexus 5 cases in the store, but you can find them online." She tells me "I know, but it kinda fits anyway. I'll just take the case off when I need to use the camera."

*facepalm*
[Nexus 5 General] addonelam:
No.

To me it seems like he was trying to say "because I'd kill her if she bought..."

Co-worker has a N4.

Another co-worker is going to get an N5 after experiencing mine.

Friend has a N5.

Edit: Hey, [MENTION=4878985]ickoicko[/MENTION] and I think alike!
[Nexus 5 General] P.Mobile:
nope i have never seen anyone with the N5.. or the N4!! everyone around here has iphones or galaxys..
[Nexus 5 General] bhillegass:
Never in the Pittsburgh area! Except for mine :)
[Nexus 5 General] damnmisur:
I've not seen a N5 on my area. On a side note, I believe I'm the only one in the city with a Wii U.
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
Maybe to the general, uneducated public. As a N5 owner, I would recognize one immediately if I saw someone else using it.
[Nexus 5 General] Johmama:
Sort-of slightly off-topic but still relevant:

Am I the only one that, upon someone noticing my phone, gets asked what my phone is, answers with "a Nexus (4,5)", then gets asked "Oh... the Samsung Nexus? I haven't heard of it..."

It happened with my Nexus 4 a while back when I first got it. I was at a friend's house when they were having a get-together and that exact conversation happened, albeit paraphrased. I cringed pretty hard and corrected the person politely, but I think that's a good example of why you don't see a lot out in the wild; most people think "Samsung" whenever you mention anything Android, and will acknowledge other OEMs only when you mention another one to them first, or they own another OEM's phone.
[Nexus 5 General] alb3rtt:
ALWAYS HAPPENS TO ME. ALWAYS.

"Nexus 5? Is that like a Samsung phone or something?" :banghead::banghead::banghead:

And yes, I have seen a nexus in the wild. Actually I have seen quite a few nexi (plural of nexus ;) ) in the wild.

I have seen roughly 5 nexus 4's and roughly 5 nexus 5's. 1 nexus 4 that I saw was running cyanogenmod, that was a pleasant surprise.
[Nexus 5 General] hikarugo:
Well I can easily recognize a nexus 5 even if it is put on a case. Its shape is just different. It is rounded but its corners are sharp. And the software is kitkat with all white status bar icons.
[Nexus 5 General] roydondsa:
nexus 4 from my cousin bro

my cousin bro has nexus 4
[Nexus 5 General] Koxu:
I had probably the only N5 around here. Then my girlfriend got one. Then her brother got one. Then a mutual friend got one. Then my parents decided to goto T Mobile and got one each... >_>

I will say my girlfriend probably has the most unique N5 however. She had me install a full body stickerboy in all white with a clear screen protector.
[Nexus 5 General] tangosierra_:
I saw a random girl with a white N5 during a class back in dec. Some guy collected the N5 the same time around me and my friend's dad has one too. Pretty impressive considering all I see in my school is apple and Samsung
[Nexus 5 General] markdapimp:
I have yet to see a single person in the mall holding a Nexus 5 but me in the T-Mobile store they said they have lots of Nexus 5's instock

that's what they have it on sale because of overstock the note 3 and S4 and S3 on other hand is selling like hot cakes
[Nexus 5 General] nezlobnyj:
Kiev here, 4 devices already and my colleagues have them all)

2 whites 32GB and 2 blacks 32 GB (mine incl.)

while in Nexus4 era) the only one device was in my possession - iPhones everywhere.
[Nexus 5 General] mgear2:
I have a white N5 and was in a car garage before new year!
[Nexus 5 General] alasgalux:
Saw two people in my college using a Nexus 4, one random girl and a nerdy style guy. Here in Brazil, the Nexus 5 is yet to come by official means.
[Nexus 5 General] Dan1909:
I'm guessing though, that it wasn't in England?
[Nexus 5 General] mgear2:
Nah, Central Florida.

That would have been awesome though.
[Nexus 5 General] UZ7:
Both my bros and my bro's gf got one, I seem to be the late one in the family, of course we all had N4s previously as well :good:

As for actually seeing someone, not any recently.. though I did see a chick post a "selfie" with her reflection showing her phone and I knew it was a nexus 5 from there lol.

As for N4 I was surprised to see a few girls having one at a friend's baby shower (yeah I know lol) and when I was doing my clinicals I saw a girl having a white N4 and she still had the plastic cover over it and I was like I've been using mine for almost a year and still no scratches... she then took it off and threw it in the trash haha :silly:

As for FB, I recommended it numerous times with a friend buying 3, another friend buying for him and his gf, and another friend who seems to not like it because she was used to Samsung's amoled :eek:
[Nexus 5 General] 1234west:
Never happened to me. I get asked "What kind of phone is that?" at school. I reply with "Nexus 5" and some come with the puzzled face and someone thought I had the Moto X -_-
[Nexus 5 General] garbagerich:
my mate had a nexus 4 which I then bought my own one. have a nexus 5 but seen nobody around me with one. people don't understand the Nexus brand.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
I know people who have them but so far I haven't seen anyone that I don't already know with one

[Nexus 5 General] whozilla:
I just did! A few minutes ago. Dude had it on a table at Starbucks. I asked him how he likes it. He said. "Its cool" I told him I'm really happy with mine. He said "that's cool" he won't be in this forum. I can't help that my girlfriend and I are tech geeks.
[Nexus 5 General] sindroidx:
Just to throw people off if someone asks me what phone I have I tell them its an iNex.

As for seeing any in the wild, I have not seen anyone around me with one.
[Nexus 5 General] cdog1213:
I haven't seen one but one of my friends saw someone with a nexus 5. He told me when he saw mine.
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
You're lucky to be with a tech geek. I love my wife to death, but technology is definitely not her thing.
[Nexus 5 General] :
I've never seen the Nexus 4 in person.

Majority of everyone I know has an iPhone.

I know 2 people with the Moto X, 1 with the Sony Xperia, and 3 people that has the Note 3.

I'm the only one who has the Nexus 5. My buddy who has the Xperia said he wanted the Nexus 5 but it doesn't support WiFi calling.
[Nexus 5 General] spunkfaucet666:
The reps at a couple T-Mobiles tell me how they sell a whole bunch but I've never seen anybody else around here with any nexus device.
[Nexus 5 General] enndub:
Took a cab home the other night after getting terribly lost in Oakland and wandering around for 3 hours. He pulled out his phone to charge me with square and it was a N5! Mentioned that I had one, too and he knocked $3 off my fare down to an even $10. Pretty cool.
[Nexus 5 General] MU24R:
Im pretty sure im the only one that have it on my small town
[Nexus 5 General] Enddo:
i thought it was rather sad that KitKat is only like 2% of the total android users right now
[Nexus 5 General] dylando808:
I only saw one other nexus 5. It was a passing glance but my pizza guy had one in a holster. other than that it's a sea of iPhones and if there are android phones around it's usually a Galaxy S3/4 or a crappy prepaid one.
[Nexus 5 General] mr mystery:
I've seen several at my college, and I've seen others in the wild in use from friends of friends, and on the subway on my daily commute. This release is much more popular than any other Nexus I've seen. At least here in Toronto.
[Nexus 5 General] addonelam:
Pretty dang cool!
[Nexus 5 General] NexusNoob123:
Two of my friends bought it on day one launch so at one point there were 3 people holding nexus 5s in one room!!!! I know two of my friends who had nexus 4s and one other who has a galaxy nexus.

As of in the wild, like walking around and on public transportation and stuff I have yet to see people with it.
[Nexus 5 General] matthiaswtf6:
by now in my whole life i've seen in fact 1 nexus 4 and 1 nexus 5, but that is probably bcs it's not officially supported by google in austria..
[Nexus 5 General] Alex1123:
I've only seen me with one lol a few people ask me what my phone is and I tell them it's a nexus 5 but now that I have it in a spigen neo hybrid it looks kinda odd. The other day some girl asked me what iPhone I had -.- lol I just said its a nexus 5
[Nexus 5 General] himu007:
seen few times in the tube. on road not yet.
[Nexus 5 General] 1234west:
A teacher in my school who's helping me get into the college of my dreams (Auburn University) is a tech geek. He's getting KK 4.4 on his Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx and he's stoked :D
[Nexus 5 General] JD2589:
I've seen 1 Nexus 4 in the wild, still waiting to see a Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 General] nerv8765:
I live in Orange County, CA, and I usually see iPhones, at least with the girls. They buy it because it's so, so shiny, then they put a big fat ugly case on it.

As for the guys, I see a fair share of Android phones. Usually Samsung's. The Note is really popular because of the big ass screen.
[Nexus 5 General] Fidelio_o:
Have seen probably two, and one was the guy selling me the one I bought from him lol, I have gotten stopped by 2 people asking me if this a N5
[Nexus 5 General] mokee92:
Yup...

Two of my friends have it. Also, I've seen seen two guys with it at my University...!
[Nexus 5 General] OuncE718:
I've only seen one Nexus 4. I'm the only Nexus 5 that I've encountered. I must add that its a very beautiful and extremely lightweight phone (I'm coming from both the Nexus 4 & Galaxy Note 3)

Edit: It looks a lot better in person than it do in pics
[Nexus 5 General] krazeecracker:
Today at work (Comcast) a technician came in and he was sporting a nexus 5! In swfl.
[Nexus 5 General] EarlZ:
Aside from a planned meet up with some friends and display units, only N4's
[Nexus 5 General] cbutt:
Nope, haven't seen any besides mine & my husband's. Mine is white, his is a black one.

As a student at a large technical university, I see ~10 a day.
[Nexus 5 General] skyo12:
I've seen one galaxy nexus, no N4 or N5.
[Nexus 5 General] Torethyr:
I've seen two N4s apart from my own but I also don't pay much attention to what phone people have.

Haven't seen any N5s but I did see an LG G2 a few days ago.
[Nexus 5 General] phrequenc:
i have been eye balling the N5 for a while since its release, the first time i met someoen with one is the same night i ordered my own.
[Nexus 5 General] shaikmonster:
Saw a guy whip one out while I was out to lunch with the lady.
[Nexus 5 General] RedBlueGreen:
I haven't seen one.. but all my work colleagues ask me what phone is that. Love it :)

Only one person at work knows about it.. and most of the others say "Isn't a nexus a tablet?"
[Nexus 5 General] icedmayhem:
where i am currently employed in central nj, many of people bring them in. But the real question i wonder is how many of them unlock and do modding. my guess is very slim
[Nexus 5 General] Delta33:
I still haven't seen anyone with a nexus 5 in my area ..and not even a nexus 4 ....so it makes me a owner of a unique device .

Yesterday i went to a Cannin showroom to buy a DSLR ..the store manager kept askking me about my phone .!:p
[Nexus 5 General] anactoraaron:
Yep :)

Bumped into an old co-worker at a mutual friends party that I haven't seen for 2 years. He had the 32GB white, I have the 32GB black. Made me smile when I saw his phone when he pulled it out while we were talking (the white phone speaker is unmistakable) - which then took the conversation to all the anticipation prior to release. He was like me (and many of you all no doubt), checking the interwebs 3+ times a week (day) looking at the FCC photos, etc. Weird but cool.
[Nexus 5 General] Cuppeerr:
The only one i've seen was when I bought my n5. I bought it from a guy off of craigslist a couple days after launch for $400, and he had one himself.
[Nexus 5 General] Danub:
I'm in Hong Kong and as its a international city where everyone owns a top range smartphone I have seen 1 or 2 in the public
[Nexus 5 General] lsmaverick31:
I've always been curious about sales figures for the Nexus lines. Does Google ever release them? It'd be interesting to know. I've seen one in the wild, in a NYC Subway.
[Nexus 5 General] Fluidification:
The only one i've seen in the wild is mine, though i have friends considering buying it. I've also had some people go "oh, that's not an iPhone", "whoa, what is that", and "oh i love that, i wish i had one"
[Nexus 5 General] AdamUpNorth:
Lots. My brother-in-law, myself and a friend at work with all have Nexus 5s. A good friend, my sister-in-law and my sister all have Nexus 4s.

Those are the ones I've seen. Apparently a co-worker has two kids that both have Nexus 5s but I haven't seen those ones.

I'm located near Toronto.
[Nexus 5 General] JD2589:
Saw 2 Nexus 5s at BestBuy today, both were guys working at BestBuy. Technically if you count the one on display next to the N7 I saw 3 today. ;)

Only seen mine but being in the tech business a lot of friends have androids. I don't think they mess with them as much as me though :)
[Nexus 5 General] michaelsplus:
Saw one once on the train, before I got mine. Couldn't wait for mine since then. A friend of mine just ordered one, probably because I was so enthousiastic about it. He's coming from an iPhone 4. Boy, wha an upgrade.
[Nexus 5 General] abundantmussel:
Haven't seen one here in Ireland except my own so far. Could be something to do with them not being sold here.
[Nexus 5 General] Michealtbh:
Saw one in Belfast, NI today. First one I've seen in the wild.
[Nexus 5 General] lonestrider:
Nope. I haven't seen anyone with Nexus 5 around.

I bought this Nexus 5 from another country with the help of my friend. I just can't wait for the launch in my country, so I did my best to get it.

Until now, Nexus 5 is just up for pre-order, first order will be shipped around the end of this month.
[Nexus 5 General] gamer.11:
saw a N4 but no N5s.....yup pretty rare for the most popular/hyped phone of 2013.
[Nexus 5 General] thetonyclifton:
I saw today that a friend of mine had bought a white one.
[Nexus 5 General] dalle95:
I have seen 2 black since now, and one of my friends want to buy it, naturally white. I have the black version and I love it. (32Gb)

Finally saw one! A client has one. Most of my family are iSheep
[Nexus 5 General] EvoYas:
That's a good thing as I like having rare things. Lol my sister sold her Note 3 for an iPhone 5S because everyone else had a freaking iPhone at her work. By far the dumbest reason to get a phone.
[Nexus 5 General] russlowe73:
I live in Chicago, have seen about a dozen since release day.
[Nexus 5 General] Mindspin_311:
The only N5 i have seen since launch is my brother in law's
[Nexus 5 General] SteveBenz:
The Nexus phone series was a ghost phone with everyone I knew

I bought the N4 last year and then when the N5 came out I bought that and my friends were like oh cool.

Now I have one, my friend has one and another friend has a N4 but going to get an N5

I liked being different but them getting it kinda annoyed me, we used to be diverse, I was nexus, one was HTC and the other was Samsung

But now it's all NEXUS and I don't really like it, it made me really want to swap my phone for an iPhone 5.

My friend is also going to get the same headphones as me -.-

Either way I love my N5 to bits as I did with the N4 that I had
[Nexus 5 General] z3ke:
The only one I've ever seen in the wild besides mine and my girlfriends was at my school, I was like omg yes lol

Saw a girl with a Nexus 5 when I went to a hockey game in mid December.

Was it weird that I was attracted to her more because of the Nexus 5? LOL Too bad her BF was with her :P

My wife has one. That's about it.
[Nexus 5 General] 850T5m:
My two sisters have one and my dad's got a N4...pretty common in my house lol

I have seen like three, but two from work buddies (at&t so they are tech savvy) and my best friend who is a nexus loyalist. Other than that, not yet.

[Nexus 5 General] WarRaven:
I changed my mind, went and bought the quick cover case for my N5.

While there I noticed salesman had a N5 as well, he choose it over the S4 when he got it.

He was to say the least from my impression, very happy with it.

Someone that got in line behind me at the airport had a white Nexus 5 and I showed him my black one. :)

That's the only time though.

That's funny, because the first N5, besides my white one, that I've seen so far, was a black one, held by a guy, while on the airport shuttle taking me to my return flight this Friday.

Saw a guy using one while at Walmart back around the middle of November. I recognized it because he still had the stock screen protector with the nexus written across it.
[Nexus 5 General] disclaimernotice:
No, I can't say that I have. The only person I know besides me with a nexus 5 was recommended by me to get it, so I suppose that doesn't count.

Not only does no one have a nexus 5 in my area, but no one even knows what a nexus 5 is. Curiously enough the only person who has ever remarked "oh, is that a nexus 5?" to me was a languages professor in my university.
[Nexus 5 General] Johmama:
Heh, I wish the stock screen protectors didn't have anything on them. I wouldn't mind using a screen protector, but I'm horrible at putting them on so I just don't. If the phone came out of the box with a screen protector that didn't obscure my view of the screen, I'd be pretty content with leaving it on there. The Nexus 5 one was also way more invasive than the Nexus 4 one was, which just had symbols pointing to what the buttons on the side did.
