I wonder if there won't be an event

Well now it looks like some event is planned for November 5 in Tel Aviv. But the invite shows a Nexus 4, and this doesn't seem official enough to be the event...

My guess is this is just an Israeli distributor of LG products trying to drum up excitement. The phone might be announced well before the 5th.

I wonder why Google hasn't announced anything. Everywhere I read there are people like us saying "Take my money!". I just want Google to have my money and complete my Nexus 5,7(2012), and 10(2012) line up! Anyone want to buy a perfect condition non-root HTC One?

Uh, that picture indicates a date of May 11 -- almost six months ago.  Fake!

The warehouses have them and Google hasn't announced them? Is this normal? There must be a reason why they have held the announcement for so long.

 

Probably so they can start shipping same day as the announcement.

Maybe since the Nexus 4 was selling like hotcakes, even though there was no real event, Google decided to not waste time and money making a huge announcement, and instead will write a simple blog post. More money for them.

Has anyone ever had any luck getting sprint to move up an upgrade eligible date? I'm due on Jan 1st, but I need to buy my next phone before the end of 2013. technically, all I need is for my upgrade date to be moved up one day...

Your kidding right? In other parts of the world, they put the day first, followed by the month and year. In this case it would be 5 November 2013. You are too used to it being done the American way of month, day and year. Therefore, the date in the pic would be correct :-D

He is totally joking. AJ is very learned and has a degree in geography. His joke was mocking the morons of the world.

Wrong! All of you are wrong! Any math nerd will tell you to use the YYYYMMDD format . . .

Negatory. Any math nerd worth his asymptote would express time using the stardate format.

Unix Time.

Only if it's a 64 bit value, you've got to think long term! I mean if you are still using a 32 bit value you might as well be expressing it in . . . Hammer Time!

Think I'm going to jump and use my upgrade for this one. It will be the first phone that wasn't samsung or htc that I've owned in 6 years.

 

Can someone edumacate me and tell me the benefits of triband? Obviously it's better, but why?

Apparently some kind of power issue at the building where it's being held.

    • May 1st security update installed on s24 ultra factory unlocked. No functional changes detected.
    • Quote from wsj; "The T-Mobile deal could be reached as soon as later this month, while discussions with Verizon on a separate transaction are expected to take longer or might not result in an agreement, the people said." "The rising value of wireless licenses is a driving force behind the deal. U.S. Cellular’s spectrum portfolio touches 30 states and covers about 51 million people, according to regulatory filings." https://specmap.sequence-omega.net/
    • From WSJ which is paywalled but they're reporting that T-Mobile and Verizon are working on a joint deal to buy and split up U.S. Cellular. https://www.wsj.com/business/telecom/t-mobile-verizon-in-talks-to-carve-up-u-s-cellular-46d1e5e6?st=qwngrnh4s3bcr76 — — — — —  Summary from a user in the Reddit thread:  
    • So, in summary, here are the options I tested: T-Mobile intl roaming - LTE on SoftBank, routes back to the US (~220ms to 4.2.2.4) IIJ physical SIM - LTE on NTT, local routing Airalo - LTE on SoftBank and KDDI (seems to prefer SoftBank), routed through Singapore (SingTel) Ubigi - 5G on NTT, routed through Singapore (Transatel) US Mobile East Asia roaming - 5G on SoftBank, routed through Singapore (Club SIM) Saily - 5G on NTT, routed through Hong Kong (Truphone)...seems to be poorer routing my1010 - LTE on SoftBank and KDDI (seems to prefer KDDI), routed through Taiwan (Chunghwa Telecom) I wouldn't buy up on the T-Mobile international roaming, but it's a solid fallback. If you have the US Mobile roaming eSIM that's a great option. Otherwise Ubigi, Airalo, or my1010 are all solid options, so get whatever's cheapest. I wouldn't bother trying to find a physical SIM from IIJ...the Japanese IP is nice but there's enough WiFi that you can get a Japanese IP enough for whatever you need, and eSIM flexibility is great (IIJ as eSIM but seems a bit more involved to get it to work).
