The Nexus 5 And KitKat Launch Today, October 31st

Streaming is cool for some stuff. But there's some that wasn't that SQ in their music.

I know I can probably manage 16gb internal storage. I got thru a year with 8gb on the NexusS.

How's the N4 cam in your opinion fontaine

to me... i was spoiled with the nokia 920's camera...

that phone's camera was absolutely ridiculous... so detailed, such a quick focus... that is still the best camera hands down...

the n4 is somewhat middle of the pack... not as good as the note 3...

i'd say somewhere around the s3... the s4 has a better camera... more gimmicky stuff w/ it tool...

the panaremic and sphere pics work just as well as the iphone 5, though... maybe even better....

battery is an issue... i wish it had the battery of the lg g2... but it doesnt...

the only reason i'd take the s4 over the nexus 4 is pure battery.. and external storage if that's your thing...

rooted or stock... the nexus 4 is just optimized better than the s4 is...

but dont get me wrong... the s4 feels a lot better in my hands (even though its plastic) and the battery is cold blooded.

Which app do you guys use for email? I dont like having two separate apps for gmail and yahoo mail. I also dont like the stock email app. Any help? Thanks!

for anyone who isn't interested in custom roms and is thinking about getting the nexus 5 on sprint if they carry it, just remember this:

The only thing I need to hear about today is the Google Experience Launcher and if it's going to the play store..

EDIT: I know you can get that vanilla feel with other launchers.. but if it's straight from Google and a form of what is releasing with the N5 I can get jiggy with it

 

[stay lurkin]

We will see what's good today.

This seems legit... Anyone know if this channel is the goods and that this method will work?

I only have to replace the glass on mine. No issues with LCD/Digitizer at this point.

Android Police is calling it too:

The Nexus 5 And KitKat Launch Today, October 31st
Posted by Artem Russakovskii in Google, KitKat 4.4, LG, News, Nexus 5, Rumors

Ladies and gentlemen, today is the day you've all been patiently (I kid, I kid - I mean, have you seen /r/Android lately?) waiting for.

After speaking with no less than five different sources with knowledge of the matter, I am ready to confirm that the LG-made Nexus 5 should be unveiled later on today, along with Android 4.4 KitKat, additional details of which were leaked last night by former WSJ reporter Amir Efrati.

It's also likely we'll get the 4.4 SDK drop and see a major Wallet announcement, which aligns with the information in Efrati's documents and earlier sleuthing by Geek.com.

I'm hearing the embargo is officially lifting at 11am Pacific, but the announcement and possible Play Store availability could come earlier, so I wouldn't leave anywhere starting right about now. Retail availability is tipped for tomorrow at the latest, though I wouldn't be surprised if some locations will begin selling today. In Europe, due to the time difference, you guys will likely have to wait for tomorrow.

@evleaks suggested the November 1st release date earlier this week (in some time zones, like Australia, it's already November), and yesterday the first sources started reaching out, which prompted several posts that I kept to Google+. By today, I felt confident enough to move this rumor to AP. The first rumor mentioning October 31st went up on October 2nd, but I also limited it to G+ due to lack of multiple confirmations.

Google has been having a hard time containing the steady flow of Nexus 5 leaks, and at this point I'm both glad the cat will finally be out of the bag and scared of the flood of application updates we'll have to tear down for days and possibly weeks to come.

Strap in, folks, we're in for one hell of a ride today.

Is the Nexus 5 going to be on Verizon? All the reports I've seen have been mixed predictions. 

 

[rillo561]

I just have to look how sprint treated the NS4G. I'm not surprise, unlocked version was light years ahead in terms of dev. Community and updates.

 

[NCtwin]

This guy on Reddit posted a lot of info and screenshots of the N5.

Dude is saying the N5 is "always on and listening" like the Moto X.

 

[carver]

That's dope.. Always liked that feature on the x

 

[JayDean03]

Them moto x features are clutch

 

[stay lurkin]

We will see how this plays out on Sprint. I doubt that we can just buy it from the play store

 

[jay86]

the nexus 5 is now available in the google play store

Ordered me a Nexus 5 32GB in black. Sweet!

The embargo on the Nexus 5 was lifted at 11 am PST. LOL. 

 

[fontaine]

Never mind... I see it...

Copped a 16gb... Black.

And a 32 GB white... Might just flip both or keep one and sell this n4... Not really sure...

 

[ii flash ii]
