And it appears person doesn't even have a guaranteed order.

I've been having second thoughts about leaving the iOS world. I've got one of these that's already listed as shipped. Maybe I should throw that on ebay when it arrives.

I was going to try it out and sell it if I don't want it, but at these prices, maybe I should sell it sealed...

Just very curious, with no micro SD card option, why is everyone buying up the 16gb version (not just this website, the playstore sold out of the 16gb version while the 32gb version was still available) and not the 32gb version? If you are paying $350 for the 16gb version, what is an extra $49 for the extra memory and the 32gb version? Just curious.

I have learned to adapt over time but you have to ask yourself at any given moment what will you be doing that will require a massive sdcard other than just hoarding data?  I have just about everything backed up in the cloud, the only thing I will have on my phone at any given time is music since I listen to lots of music.  My One has 32gb and at any given moment I easily have 10gigs of space left over, if I want to watch a movie or two then it takes all of 3 seconds to copy and paste it to the phone.  The nexus will be my secondary device and I really have no need for 32gigs, so its a waste of money for me to spend an extra $50 for something I know I won't use.  Hell if they had an 8gig version for $299 I would have probably gotten that one instead.

I only chose standard shipping, something tells me mine won't ship until Nov 5th....

I paid for two day and mine hasn't shipped yet. Still says Nov 5th. I wouldn't worry yet. Processing shouldn't take longer, just shipping.

A small but vocal minority claim the need to carry around 32 GB of music, movies, etc. That does not represent the vast majority. Many of the rest of us realize that we will never come even close to 16 GB or even 8 GB capacity. It was interesting to see that play out -- pardon the pun -- with the Nexus 5 sales yesterday. In my case, I am not that price conscious, but why waste the extra $50?

I don't carry a lot of music, but one of the big benefits of a smartphone is the camera. I like keeping my pictures on there and I reference them frequently. Photos share taking up more space and apps are getting bigger. And the cloud requires an always reliable data connection, which since you are on sprint, I know you don't have.

I realize my preferences don't match everyone's, but I'm not a power user at all and I always bump up memory, I'd rather have it now and not wish I did when I'm constantly deleting stuff in a year.

You need a SIM card for LTE.  3G you do not.

 

Truuuuuuu, but, you will (*per internal Sprint docs) need the UICC SIM to activate the device on the network. No activation, no nothing.  (*Well, I guess there is always wifi. Lol)

For the people whose orders have shipped, did any of yours say it would ship by Nov 8, or just the first batch of folks that ordered before me?

 What exact time did you place your order?

Mine said it was shipping Nov 5th but I actually got the email that my order has shipped at 1am.

Ok for those that have shipping confirmed already, what time did you place your order?

 

Order date was:

 

Order date: Oct 31, 2013 2:02:36 PM EDT

 

At first had an estimated shipping date of Nov 5th but then I got the email that my order had shipped later on in the night at 12:41am.

 

Hope this helps to extrapolate on your situation  :)
