does this mean it will be RELEASED that day, or the release date will be announced that day?
Since they are not announcing it till the evening I would think the earliest it would be on sale would be the next day. They may just say the dates it will be available with each carrier.
I highly doubt (unfortunately) that it will be released the day of or after. Think the GS3, the announcement was quite a ways, if memory serves, more than a month prior to the release on my carrier, Verizon. I think we may be waiting quite a while after the announcement. Here's hoping I am wrong.
October 24th? I was hoping it would be released by that time :/
my upgrade is up on monday. so do i cave in and get a GS3 (my current phone is 3 years old and barely usable), or wait it out for the note 2?
I know they want to make this a huge deal, but I'm thinking just giving us the dates would be way more hype than a party could create.

If I remember correctly TMO got the GS3 about a week before everybody else got it, so it could mean a possible Halloween release for the Note 2 on TMO based on a Nov 11th date. Would be nice since they released, then canceled the original note all the sudden. Seems like that would be a nice way for TMO to make-up for the mistake of a release of the Note1. Would make for a nice treat, but of course this is just speculation.
dang just release the thing already

Why is it apple that only releases right when its announced? Why do I have to wait months? I hope Verizon isn't the last to get it. Guess Apple patented fast launch

Apple just doesn't tell you anything until its time to release, haha.
It works for them though because nothing else uses iOS so you won't buy another device because there were no details about the next phone. I'm already eligible for my upgrade. Had Note 2 details not have leaked I'd have the GS3 by now. Besides if Samsung launched within two weeks of an announcement I'm sure apple would sue for stealing the idea.
Hopefully they'll give some dates when they launch it on the 24th. Should be sooner, but at least now we have a date.
Better if the dates leak earlier. Also if it is our phone and not a new tablet announcement.
US Cellular states that they will have it ship out at the end of Oct, for pre-orders.

Wow a full month later than most places in the world...america is the new 3rd world i guess?
Simple question... I'm planing to buy three Nexus 4 devices... one for my mom, one for my wife and one for me... and that's a lot of money!
So... is it safe to buy the Nexus 4 right now or would you guys wait until May to see if they release the rumored Nexus 5?

It's a nexus device so it is going to keep getting software updates for a while. If the hardware meets your needs then it is safe. If you have to have something new you will always be waiting.
Go try one out and see if you like it.
Don't see a nexus 5 coming out in may. A new nexus 7 yes but a nexus 5 probably not, since 5" screens are a premium at the moment. So in Sept/Oct we should see a new Nexus 4. It will be hard to keep giving the phone the new number. Since 2 years after the 5 it would be the nexus 7.
I think Google is going to just do variations on the numbers now.
As for the current N4 go for it. It's a great phone. It will be supported for quite a while.

wrong section and why would it not be ?
Mine finally arrived just last week--moving up from a GNex and I couldn't be happier. By all means go for it unless you want to wait for an S4, which I wouldn't It's perfect for standard phone use(GNow, Phone/SMS, Chrome, Twitter etc) and from what I hear around the forums it's top-notch for gaming as well if that's your thing, not to mention it's a joy to look at
No N5 in may... Where's your source? Rumors mean nothing...
Yeah I didn't even bother responding to that part of the OP's post, haha. The Nexus 4 just came out in November for Pete's sake

n5 what rumor with out proof its just a rumor
its safe unless it has a bad imei
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
There are a lot rumors about a new nexus device at the next google I/O.
If nexus 5 is announced, you probably won't see it until late summer or early fall, maybe even winter (product refresh cycles have been picking up though).
There could be an update to the current nexus 4. The most probable update is adding a LTE modem to the current version and perhaps bump the storage up to 32GB.
My guess is that an updated nexus 4 will come out late summer/early fall, and a new nexus device in the winter (around December), based on past google product release cycles.
So unless you really need that LTE, I would say go for the nexus 4 now.
I see.
Well... I gues I will order them now before they upgrade to LTE in the future. The carrier I'm planning to use is HSPA+ only...
Theoritcally... could they add LTE and HSPA+ together?

THIS.
OP, you should have asked the question like, is it safe to buy Nexus 4 now or wait for the highly awaited Moto X phone?
I would LOVE to have the X phone having such great rumored specs but I already own a N4. I might sell it later on and get the (se)X phone
Get the phones and if by the grace of God they release a new one sell only yours and replace it if you need to( how it makes sense to me). I'm giving my gf my nexus 7 when the new one comes out. Nexus 4 came out in November with shortages till very recently. Google could lose some respect if releasing a new phone this soon, at least from me because I've only had a nexus 4 1 month.

I don't think there will be a new nexus phone announced at I 0 and I don't even think this supposed x phone will be released then either...maybe a new nexus 7 and possibly an lte nexus 4 or an upgraded storage capacity like they did with the nexus 7 when the 4 and 10 came out but that's it...they usually drop a new phone around Nov...either way this is a great phone if you want it get it.

I think if you think like "something new will com out and we will wait" thats endless. Just think that the device you will buy are suit with you requirement.
For me, thias device will take care all your requirement. The software update is so fast. The build and performance is high end.

If you decide to wait, you'll be stuck in the waiting game forever. Trust me.. 2012's fastest Quad core processor and 2 GB of ram will easily last you for more than 2 years.
Just get the nexus 4! I'm getting mine next month!

This exactly.
Even if the X phone gets announced that soon I think it's going to be a 500 plus dollar device. So if you want to spend 1500 plus on 3 phone vs 900 to 1050 then by all means wait. Personally I would get the n4. Especially if getting 3.

TL;DR: We're not getting 4.4.3, we're getting 4.4.4. The version bump to .4 is basically only a security vulnerability fix, so don't get excited about any new features or bug fixes except for what was already due to land with 4.4.3.
The worst part is that this will significantly add to the wait time until we see the next OTA for our device. The expected wait is 3 to 5 weeks after the week ending June 27, then there will be a soak, delaying it another week. With Verizon dragging their feet as is typical, I would expect this update to roll out for general availability no sooner than the second week of August.
Another two months of bluetooth dropouts. Thanks a lot, Verizon.

I've never pre-ordered a phone before. Do you pay the full price of the Nexus 6 up front? Will it arrive on the day it is officially released to the public? I was planning on purchasing the phone outright through Google, just like I did last year with the Nexus 5. Does pre-ordering guarantee the phone will be at my house the day it's released? Just curious on how this works. Thanks.
I never have pre ordered before either. Just order on release day from google. I'm going through t mobile on mine. Have to sell my m8 first. I would say you get it on launch day. Maybe even the day before. I did pre order the T-Mobile g1. Lol. For it the day before.

Google's track record with pre-orders isn't great. They haven't offered a pre-order since the original Nexus 7 when it wasn't shipped until the release date. This left a lot of people upset because they thought they would get it on release day. Google was also immensely backed up and some people didn't get theirs for a week or so, even though they paid for two day shipping. I hope Google fixes this for all future (current) pre-orders, but no guarantees.
I don't think preorders is live yet lol

This is exactly what happened to me. I got my nexus 7 like 2 weeks after it was released in stores because I preordered it from Google...
So while our fellow neighbors downstairs are spamming their "Out Of Stock" ordering page, we can't even get to the page itself
I'm still not seeing the device being available on the Canadian Play Store. I have emailed google (.ca) and asked them about when it will be available to pre-order, and this is the response i got:
Thank you for contacting Google. It’s great to hear you are interested in the Nexus 6. We are excited to offer this popular new product on our store! I’m happy to help!
The Nexus 6 should be available on Google Play sometime today! I don't have any additional information at this time. I recommend to keep checking Google Play for updates! As soon as there is more information Google Play will be the first to be updated.

I've heard reports from MobileSyrup saying a completely different story though... but I think they were referring more to the actual release date rather than the pre-ordering date.
Ah well, it's almost 11am PDT , which is the rumored time to pre-order (as it was for the Nexus 5).
*EDIT 10/06/2014
The Canadian URL has finally appear! "Coming soon"

Thanks for the info Mr. Shaded.

Finally official pre-order date on the Canadian Google Play Store! Get your devices folks!
*EDIT 12/16/2014
Google starts shipping 32GB variants...still no word on 64GB Blue, is now officially late.
Hope thats true. I've been waiting for this thing for months now. I've had about all I can take with my N4. (1.5 Hours SOT on a good day...)
Just spam this page, I guess:

Although its pretty much confirmed that pre-order is in November for Canada:

Soooooooo....... When? Any idea? Hint? Date and time?
First week on November is this week sooooo....
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
I think they meant the first week entirely in November (2nd-8th), seeing as it's not likely to release on a weekend. Google Canada's nexus page still just says coming soon. As much as I'm hoping for a Monday release, things aren't looking good.
If its going to be the coming week I would bet on Wednesday. Not a big deal though considering the lucky ones that were able to preorder in the states won't see the devices ship to later November. I doubt Canadians won't see the device until December. Might even see a carrier (I believe telus is the only one to confirm) release it before they land in .ca. Either way I'm still pumped for the device.
I haven't been using my credit card just because I'm waiting for this phone to come out!!

I've been trying to get ahold of Google, but so far I haven't gotten any reliable answers...starting to think even themselves don't know when they will release it for Canada
My next big bet would be this coming wednesday, because it seems like the following one (11/12/2014) is the shipping date for the US-based pre-orders from last week.
Telus and Rogers are both going to offer the Nexus 6, but neither has any idea on when.
Yea, I'm guessing Wednesday too... Base on the previous launch...
Can't remember for sure about the time... Was it around 2 EST?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
Really hoping Google can provide some details on this.
I was expecting Nexus 6 would have similar launches as Nexus 4 and 5. In anticipation, I sold my Nexus 5 and went back to the laggy Galaxy S 1.
Not sure how long I need to stay on it..

Based on the n5 it would be 2pm est
Lot's of US users reporting that Google has updated the page saying Stock comes every Wednesday, so seems like they will have stock tomorrow. Let's hope that some of that is allocated to Canada. That lines up with the Early November release. If not I think it will be the 12th
Based on this, I doubt we'll be seeing the Nexus 6 in Canada any time soon.

Yes but this is from Motorola... Not from Google.
And there answer is more oriented toward regular customer who want to buy thing directly from a store...
I guess we'll see pretty soon!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Indeed... I'm starting to think we won't see it anytime soon
If the US is struggling that much to get the demand up and running, I don't think they'll see Canada as a priority in their list.
Might as well keep checking every wednesday, starting to lose the point of checking daily lol.
At this rate, it looks like Rogers and Telus might have it before Google Play Store!
I understand your struggle!
Right now I'm relying on mobile syrup who's known for having good information and they believe that it will be release this week so..... Like I said b4.... Will see soon enough!

Well I got the pushbullet notification that they're "available" again... Store page still says "Not available in your country". Starting to doubt that any Canadian is gonna see one before December at this point.
