I am glad to have found this thread/website. A LOT of good info and peoples here
I received my shipping email from Sprint at 1:10am 'today' for my Black 16g N5 ordered on Nov. 3
It shows as UPS 2nd Day Air® and had a Scheduled Delivery: Monday, 11/11/2013, By End of Day at 6am this morning when I checked again
Now it shows Scheduled Delivery: Friday, 11/08/2013, By End of Day !!
w00t!!
Nothing like being able to play with a new phone over the weekend.
I will be comparing it to my Droid Razr Maxx HD on Verizon LTE
I happen to live in an area where both Verizon and Sprint show a low to medium, 2 to 3 bar coverage for LTE
I will be deciding on many factors on which phone and service to keep
The Maxx has done very well for me in all areas except screen size is a tad small and tapping and touching is hit or miss sometimes
Call quality, speed, build, wifi, 4g, camera, 32gig on board and 64gig sdcard, and of course battery life are all amazing.
BUT the desire to have a much 'nicer' phone, bigger screen and whatnot just may negate the 'shortcomings' of the same: 16gig on board, no sdcard, charging once a day vs every 4 or 5 days, paying Verizon $40 a month for service on our family plan, or switching myself to sprint for $90 a month. In some ways it seems like a no brainer but it is actually going to be a tough decision :-/
btw.....does anyone know if I can slap a Tmobile sim in at anytime and it will just work ? 4g too ?
or do settings need to be tweaked ?
and do I need to activate the phone thru sprint first or will a Tmo sim work right outta the box ?
Thanks in advance
