Shying away from the SGP ones. Apparently the clearance for the buttons on them are too tight which makes the power and volume buttons super sensitive. Leaning towards the Diztronic but from the above post it seems too flimsy?

Your opinion may be different than mine once you get your hands on it. This Diztronic is my first chinese TPU case ever. My only previous experience is with the Magpul American made proprietary thermoplastic, which I like. However I've never found anything else like it.

If you're already used to thin chinese TPU cases and like them, you will probably like the Diztronic. There's many positive reviews on Amazon as well. It's a clean, slim case that looks nice (aside from the ugly shiny front lip) and fits well. I personally would just like something beefier for better drop protection and a a grippier surface.

mine hasn't come yet too. ups last delivery is 7pm right?

Expresso 11-12-2013 03:12 PM

Same boat, been waiting all day.

Damn you UPS!

UPS just delivered despite it not being updated on the tracker.

So excited.

Also just a knock and left by the door. Sketchy as fuck.

I bet if you drive around the block, you'll find packages of Nexus 5.

This with your beta kernel and wifi and LTE turned on the whole day? How much did you actually use the phone with the screen on today?

Didn't turn on Wifi. I believe that's for location purposes. It was on LTE all day so far. Screen on time for me was about 1 hour. It'll probably drain like crazy when I get home though since I don't have the best reception in my basement suite. I normally just switch to wifi when I'm at home.

Custom ROM. However there's an apk file you can run to enable the stock percentage. Catch is that it's white on white so the number gets obscured by the battery depending on how much charge you have left.

3klipze 11-12-2013 04:52 PM

Just received it.. Its for a friend and they were impatiently waiting for it haha.

Mine isn't coming til next month. =[

Nabatron 11-12-2013 04:54 PM

I dont know why google doesnt put a percenetage sign for the battery? just doesnt make sense!

Just started using my 32GB Nexus 5 Black and noticed it has an incredibly bad yellow tint to the screen. Compared it to my iPhone 4 and Asus Tranformer Prime tablet and the Nexus 5 displays all colours with a yellow hue.

Apparently this is a common issue...

Hm, mine seems fine next to the 5s. Try RMAing yours? Though google probably won't ship one out to you for another month.

SkinnyPupp 11-12-2013 08:20 PM

A lot of people mistake warm colour temperature with 'yellow tint'
