For those of you in the US, if you redeem a code in the Play store do you also need to add a credit card information?

No.

Because you need to do a hardware upgrade for some iMacs of that era as they don't have enough memory, which is beyond the technical ability of some people.

I suppose. They can just learn via Google or something though.

 

[Vic]

omg LG

Whoa.

 

[DXPett1]

Galaxy Nexus dream come to reality.

They should add a hump to the back so it doesn't rock when you lie it on its back

hahaha oh lord I remember this. Such a deceiving picture

 

[Bboy AJ]

LG taking over.

Remember this like it was yesterday. That picture was such bullshit.

I don't see the point in a vertical curve at all. At least with the Galaxy Round it looks like it will fit the hand better.

The vertical curve fits your face better. For those rare times you use your phone as a, you know, phone.

i'm pretty sure 4.4/5 will drop today, there seem to be lots of signs pointing to it, like those guys who can't sleep and it would be really cool if its today.

also did anyone get into the cover beta? it looks really cool but still nothing has happened

 

[Nicktendo86]

That self healing back sounds really interesting, I wonder if one particular area is 'healed', that same exact but can't self heal again?

 

[Groof]

I'm gonna be honest with you guys, that LG G Flex looks sexy. But that self healing shit I can't believe until I see it and know it works for real. If it does though, I'll be super impressed.

 

[iapetus]

They're a really shitty company. I'd move over to all Apple but not until iOS works well. IOS is still so disjointed and sandboxed.

You'd move from Google to Apple because Google is too evil and shitty a company?

I suppose when you're feeling a little too cold, rather than turning the heating up you just rip off all your clothes and move to Siberia?

He's just pissed because he bought a Nexus yesterday and they're coming out with something new and he thinks its such bullshit.

[gutshot]

So, today's the day? For reals? Google's not just fucking with us again, are they? You better not be fucking with us, Google!

They're fucking with us.

[Zeppu]

Fucking (lack of) DST, it's going to be dark by the time it's 12:00 in NY.

I can count on them to not jack things up at the expense of consumer experience.

I saw someone with a 5c on a train the other day, the glossy plastic looks really cheap to me. But, ya know, apple invented polycarbonate so its REVOLUTIONARY!

Funny enough someone sat next to him with a 5S and was using the touch ID thing, had quite a bit of lag

No, TouchID doesn't have quite a bit of lag.

I tried the 5c out in store the other day. It felt really solid in hand, but it's still glossy, icky ass plastic.

How starved for info we are, that we are debating Apple products.

Goddamn Googy

I was gone for a week and still have a lot of catching up to do.

Google finally released 4.4 and the N5, right?

Yep, of course. This is Google we are talking about, they don't delay the release of their products!

Three more days.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

So, over and under on an info dump today on the Verge at noon EST?

 

[panda21]

how likely is it that they will have the new launcher on the play store? can they theme the notification shade through an app/googy play services?

 

[woeds]

A Dutch webshop put up an order page for the the Nexus 5, priced at €459. Several news sites contacted them and they confirmed that they were expecting a shipment from LG this wednesday. One hour after the news hit, the page was taken offline again by request of LG.

It's coming...

So that'd be £400 for us, fuck. I hope the Play Store subsidises it well.

 

[Testicular Sound Express]

was there an embargo?

 

[Battersea Power Station]

It's very likely they will have the new launcher in the Play Store. It's impossible to theme the status bar and notification shade without mods that use root access. So, it won't happen.

We are ALL coming...soon.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

For The Verge, probably.

Given the release date, it seems like they'll go with an info dump/blowout via The Verge, like they did with the Nexus 4.

cool. i think that too but i think googy added notification shade APIs in a recent jelly bean update. also googy play services basically has full access to everything afaik

I don't know why, but "Los device" is really fucking funny to me.

Unless that they turn that into a seperate component as well, starting with 4.4.

 

[jokkir]

Yeah, that's what I remember Google saying about the 4.3 update. That's why root had problems when 4.3 first came out, no?

[Jayayess1190]

Might as well wait until my birthday next month as long as they are taking.

 

[Testicular Sound Express]

I look forward to a world when I'm not refreshing this and the nexus 5 thread throughout the day.

 

[thespot84]

yup. saw it yesterday and there was no lag.

iOS7 on iPhone 4 and iPad 3 says otherwise.

iOS7 on iPhone 4 and iPad 3 says otherwise.

For sure. I spent this weekend trying to explain the changes in iOS7 to my parents because they upgraded their ipad3 and were completely lost.
