Nexus 5

My 2 phones are in Belfast, then have to go to Waterford, then being brought up to Dublin for me on Wednesday. Nice tour of the country for them anyway.

Same here, should be in parcel motel shortly, I'd say we filled the full truck with our orders.

Going to pick mines up now. My work colleagues think I am crazy, I will actually be a bit embarrassed to show them my new phone tomorrow. My list of phones in the last while is as follows, since the iphone 5 I have been pretty bad!!

Iphone 3S -> HTC Desire -> SGS2 -> HTC One X -> Iphone5 -> HTC One -> SGS4 -> HTC One (Again) -> First Nexus 5

Crazy man. Is Nicole buying you all the phones?

My prediction is that Dublin users will have their package by 6pm and the rest of the country shouldn't be surprised if they get theirs before midnight. This is just based on my past experience with Parcel Motel..

Got such a big college assignment due today but I can't stop refreshing PM and ParcelForce tracking.

Are you using visa or visa debit card? I used visa, I added pm as a delivery address last time round but only after I had my account unlocked, can you log into Google wallet?

I am using visa aswell. Yes I can log into wallet, is there something I should update?

Mines the same, and yet I still appear not to have paid for it. Bit odd, but fine by me :pac:

When's the Nexus 6 being announced?

madmoe

Hey lads, I need to call Google on the phone to see what the deal is with my order....I want to cancel it and try with a different card if the current one is not gonna go anywhere. So my question to you is do you know what the telephone number for them is?

Cheers,
M

You have not been locked out of your account anyhow so you might still be alright... Add pm as a delivery address anyhow in case they ring your card company to verify..

Just ordered another 32gb black. Hope this one doesn't get cancelled.

History is relatively short.

HTC Desire HD to Samsung GS3 to Nexus 5.

Ordered the new Nexus 7 to house in Belfast a few weeks ago. Parents were supposed to be calling down to visit family and was going to grab it off them then. They had to delay until this Saturday. Works out perfectly as I'll now have a shiny new N5 and N7 to play with on Sat afternoon!

Nah, haven't seen Nicole in since last Xmas Eve. Hopefully she will show her face this year again.

Nothing really, I did drop it one day and cracked the back of it and then could get a HTC One with work for free so took it and sold the S4 then.

So have my N5 now and impressed so far. Bedtime now but will get a good play with it tomorrow.

im wondering if its worth upgrading from the Nexus 4.. yes its faster, has bigger screen.. but is it much better? My Nexus 4 is fine for what I use it for.. plus im just after buying a broddit phone holder for the car which the nexus 4 slides into.. no doubt i'd need to change it for the nexus 5.. even though its only .5 mm wider than the nexus 4

It's likely that they could be one of the last on the list for delivery, if they're working farthest to nearest.

Lol, there is a child inside every grown up person and all that

They might have delivered it to PM, but perhaps the delivery van need to come back to ParcelForce for them to update the delivered status with exact time? I know from past experience that even if PM gets a delivery, they scan them in batches, so it might 2pm or so before they scan it it, and load onto a truck around 3/4/5 pm. Dublin around 8 and the will sort and deliver to your motel overnight (usually around 2-3 am to Drogheda motel for instance).

Good news is, it's coming! There is no bad news.

Unless you really want to upgrade I wouldn't bother if I were you. Although I convinced myself I somehow needed a new phone, my old Galaxy Nexus still worked fine, albeit with a few minor annoyances and a small bit of lag at times. If your N4 is working fine though, upgrading really is unnecessary, although if you are selling your N4 and can get 200 for it perhaps, for the €160 price difference to the 16gb model you might think it worth it.

Like you I had the S3 and the S4 and liked them both but ALWAYS ended up putting a nearly stock ROM on them! Now it's time for the N5 and pure stock Android and most of all no more rooting and all the frustration\annoyance that comes with it!!

Wohoo, 11:56 DELIVERED

C'mon Parcel Motel, no pressure now
