  3. wow, google planned not to sell ANY nexus 5 devices at all! how can they explain a 4week delay in shipping ? * amazed *

  4. Just an update from Canada: I ordered a Nexus 5 on Oct 31st for a friend because he couldn’t add the unit to cart. The order originally stated the Nexus 5 would ship on Nov 8th,but I got an email alert saying it shipped on the 4th and the estimated time of arrival is Nov 12th. This is very timely!

            1. Dam. If u buy the unlock Sprint version it should work on vz. If not jump ship. I left Sprint for T-Mobile cause CDMA networks is slow to no updates comes thru.

    1. Nope. Android leader Sundar Pichai said that Google is working with Verizon for some projects to launch in 2014. Article coming shortly.

  5. Out of stock already when I tried diff colours and both sizes, for Canada at least. I’m hearing the same from others who have tried.
