ATTENTION!! Radio Shack is paying you $150 for your Nexus One

This is a joke, well i guess it is more like an insult to the intelligence of Nexus One owners, i wonder how many would actually do the "Trade IN".
So for the ones who don't want to read, yeah you get $150 for your nexus one, this sounds worse than what car dealers do.

I work for radio Shack and they would have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Also they probably wouldn't want mine considering " bad mother Fu<ker " is engraved on the back. =D

this is what we called stupid population... radio shack is filled with nothing than morons and run by them.. if i see or hear anyone doing this trade.. they have to be crack dealers and needed of crack.. cause no smart person will do this..

I would give them a bricked nexus one for that, but that's about it

im just gonna give that gay-a** who started this dumba** idea at radio shack a vibrator and tell him to go eff himself.

I would trade it for $300.
And next time learn how to resize your attachment before you upload it.

I remember my cousin threatened to break my N1 and I was like then you'll owe me like 500 bucks...he was like "please, a new iPhone 4 is only a bit more than 500 no way your phone is worth 500"
granted he was right....on e-bay and craigslist the lowest price I saw was 400...but still...that's 9 months after release and still worth 400 USED...
amazing.
150 is an insult...I

You can do better - they are going for between $350-$400+ based on condition and original packaging/accessories on eBay.
Am waiting for the new MyTouch HSPA+ to come out. If it is a decent device and not too locked down (although thst will certainly be dealt with here), then and only then would I consider letting go of my Nexus - and certainly not to RS.

Ok buddy!
Does anyone have their customer service email? I would like to write them an email laughing at their ridiculous offer! hahahahahahaha

never letting go
I have the G2 now but i love my N1s.. both of my N1s!!!

I'd never sell my n1. The fact that it's pure android with no manufacturer ui, it gets updates the day that they come out, and google basically made it to be rooted, are all priceless features no manufacturer is willing to replicate. The Nexus One is one of a kind for now.

Samsung GalaxySII models for AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint break cover

First off I feel this warranted a new thread altho we have some very similar.
But this provides more solid info that what I saw we currently have.
Merge if needed.

So while we reported yesterday that the Samsung Galaxy S II won’t be heading to Verizon, the silver lining comes in the fact that the three other major wireless carriers will indeed be getting their own models. So, the big question regarding whether or not Samsung would take the previous path in releasing these new models, in creating different looking devices for each carrier has been the question since the beginning. Thanks to Pocketnow, we can finally say that we (may) know what the handsets will look like.
There isn’t a lot of information going around here. In fact, where the above image came from is anyone’s guess. And because of that, we may want to take the above leak with the normal amount of salt on hand. We’re not sure if these are the final devices for each carrier, but we imagine that it’s certainly possible. So stay tuned, as Samsung’s event is just around the corner and we’ll have all the details we could ever want (hopefully).

Keyboard (a good one, not some PoS without a dedicated number line) is make or break for me. That's why I chose the epic over the other decent phones w/keyboards out there to begin with.

Sprint usually keeps the premium phones around the $199 mark, so I wouldn't expect this to be any different. No price has been announced, but I would expect that price point, but certainly nothing higher than $249.
Me personally, I'm waiting for details on the Nexus Prime to do anything. By then, the Epic will have GB and other goodies to go with it, and the SGS2 will already have ROMs etc associated with it. I have to rely on my phone quite a bit for business, so I'm not too eager to be an early adopter. I want to ensure all the small kinks and quirks with the SGS2 are worked out before I jump on it.

Nice to see confirmation of the design in the previously-shown pic that we assumed was Sprint. Looks like a solid design. I'm going to have a real problem deciding between this and waiting for a Sprint Nexus Prime variant.
Also, thanks for citing your source instead of merely ripping off an entire article as your own.

When the SGS1 EPIC came out it was $249 and then after the 2011 the price dropped. I hope they start out at $199 cause im just gonna add a 3rd line to my account to buy the SGS2 and give my son a phone! My wife will be taking my EPIC...

The Verge has a pretty good run down of the specs and a comparison with other tablets on the market.

You know I am almost thinking of preordering this thing. I have wanted a tablet for sometime and I have been looking at the Transformer as my first choice. This however looks like a great device for the price for what I would be using it for. Basically an e-reader, as I already read all my books on Kindle Software on my EVO, watching movies on the go either from HBO Go, Netflix or even Amazon's services and maybe some light web browsing and email.
So the question is, buy it now and have in in November and wait for the wonderful folks here to root the thing so I can run what I want on it OR wait until someone else gets them and puts out a review on it?
hmmmm..what to do what to do...

Do they charge your card if you pre-order? Or does it only charge when it ships out? I'd hate to have $200 something out from my credit card balance for over a month. It wont be out until November (mid).

I could have sworn I've seen Amazon preorders say "You won't be charged until this item ships" but that seems to be lacking for the Fire.
Can anyone that has preordered confirm if they've been charged?

Pre-ordered while in class . Can't wait for this thing to get into my hands. Praying that there won't be a locked bootloader. If not this thing has a shot of running a homebrew Ice Cream Sandwich!
Edit: I'll let you know if I get charged in an hour or two.

I pre-ordered this morning and have not been charged yet, so I'm assuming they will not charge until it ships.

I preordered as soon as it was up.figure worst case i give it as a gift. But im really intrested to see how a 7 inch tablet works out.
Current use ipad2 but been wanting something smaller.

I am getting one for the wife - just her speed I think...
I'll stick with my ASUS EP121 and ExoPC slates for me.

Amazon charges you when the item ships. So if you pre order, you have a couple months to decide what you really want to do.

I just went ahead and preordered one. I just read on AndroidTablet.com that Amazon acknowledged that this device will be easily rooted and that they won't stand in the way of it happening.
I figure I will get it, play around with it while the great folks here figure out the process and then I will decide if I want to keep it or not. For $200 I am not out much and I can give it away as a Christmas gift or return it if I don't like the thing.

DONE! How can you pass it up at that price? And with XDA throwing knives at it..... This is the entry point for E-readers and Tablets....

I ordered a couple for my family. We have the older kindles and it looks like a worthy upgrade.

I ordered one and the new $79 kindle as well. Cannot wait.

I preordered a few days ago. I still have not been charged for it yet.
And I have preordered things from amazon before. They don't charge until the day it ships.

As per usual the U.K has to play the waiting game and will probably be 40% more expensive when it eventually gets here...... Grrrr

Insane Purchase Price!

I decided the nexus 9 was to big and that I would just by a nexus 7. But when I was on Ebay I saw this. Who in the world is going to buy a nexus 7 for $6,132. Apparently 52 people. I got me a mint condition 32gb for 165 with a case with swappa.

Or....52 could've been sold at a reasonable price, and then the price was raised to make it look good. Not sure how eBay works.

I also got mine off of swappa. $130 with a case. Like new 16gig with a case. Love swappa!

No, no, no. This is commonly done when supply runs out to keep people from buying one, they just raise the price absurdly high. Their item will stay relevant in searches and it'll keep the sold history, but no one will buy it.

That's crazy price. I got my 32G N7 a few weeks back from Walmart clearance for $158

Thanks for that explanation, not the first time I've seen this absurdity.
Bought my 16gb flo for $90 on eBay, pattern locked. Nothing a reset didn't take care of. It now lives in my Acura's dashboard (replaced my factory nav unit).

Got my 16gb in "fair" condition tablet only from Gazellestore on eBay...$79.99 shipped. Couldn't pass it up and was expecting the worst...it arrived MINT. They had several available so I believe they were just liquidating stock and put fair condition to cover all bases...I probably just got lucky with a mint example

Sellers sometimes raise the price to an unimaginable selling price when they're temporarily out of stock but don't want to remove their listing. Then they lower it back to normal when they have more.

I got my 16gb new a year ago from office Depot black Friday for 189 With a $25 gift card....

I see this often on ebay. The seller is either out of stock or out of town so they do that. I just got a manufacturer refurb 16GB for $126 on eBay.

I got my brand new 32GB Nexus 7 for $179 at Staples almost a year ago with a $20 coupon, and a price match for Micro Center. Still the best deal I've seen IMO.

Just bought one on Amazon for 169.99. My old N7 was really large and the N9 is too steep of a price.

Groupon has 16gb wifi new for $169. Which is hilarious because I paid $165 a year ago at office Depot.
We needed a second tablet with more than a gig of ram. We opted for the galaxy tab 4 7.0 because staples was selling them for $99....

I mean laggy not large.

screen on time

Does anyone mind sharing a few with their app usage? Can be light moderate or heavy. I'm interested in this model more than pro version because of the price and pro cost is too close to poco so I'd probably get either non pro or the poco. Also how come pro has a real life review section on xda but non pro doesn't? Ty!

Pre-ordered from Banggood on March 25. Shipped to rural eastern Canada April 1 using Air Parcel Registered. ETA April 27. I'd rather wait a month for the postal system than have to deal in any way with DHL though.
Back to the topic, there are plenty of youtube videos showing good screen on time. One person did a youtube streaming test for more than 12 hours. Others report around 9 hours screen on time with moderate usage. I'll see what I get when it gets here eventually. YMMV.

Uh so that's why it takes too long :/
Wow the battery is so good! I still can't believe I had 15 hours of SOT on my old device (redmi 4 prime 4000mh snapdragon 625 5 inch). It was like a legend! After 2 years of usage it went down to 9 hours which is better than a lot of new devices!

My Note 7 arrived today to shop, but I am still thinking - buy it or cancel order. I am using HTC U Ultra now. Nice smartphone, but 3000mAh battery is a joke. I had Poco F1 in the past, so I guess that Note's SoT will be a bit weaker due to 14nm SoC.

I've seen some YouTube reviews and have an idea now. Looks to be similar to older models maybe slightly less but still good. Also I think most reviewers aren't flashing EU miui rom on it. I would asap right after receiving the phone for a better experience because I heard the rom shipped with almost any xiaomi phone can be buggy

I think this topic is buried here and should transfered into Real life Review, too little info for screen time for such an excellent device. Screen on time threads of RN4 and RN5 have many people discussing this matter. Here is dead.
After a day use, everything always on(data, gps), wifi on when needed, auto sync only wifi. Stock rom EU 10.3.4
