Debating on picking one up or waiting for the Skyrocket HD. I'm sure the SGSIII won't hit shores till November. Reading through the posts is appears the Nexus still has alot of quirks and issues that have yet to worked out. Being that the GSM Nexus is a unlocked overseas import, I'm a bit nervous about getting it and dealing with numerous reboots, ect and being screwed (ie...don't have the option to take it back and get another device from Verizon). So my question is is the GSM having as many issues as the CDMA Nexus? Anyone with the GSM want to chime in. Negri has the nexus with a $25 off coupon for $620ish, but I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger with all these issues I'm reading about.

Have a GSM Nexus from Negri and it has been without fault. The phone is stable, fast and very good looking. I would do it again. I also have it on AT&T.
Issues such as what?
Battery? These are coming from LTE versions of the phone. GSM is fine.
Speaker? Get volume+ and boost the speaker
Not having any problems with the phone. I'd recommend it. I purchased from negri as well.

Glad to hear it. I wasn't fond of moving over to Verizon. How are the network speeds? Did you have to go into AT&T to get a sim? I have a microsim in my 4s, can I just get an adapter and pop it in and be GTG?

Using micro sim from 4s with adapter. Speeds are good, generally 5-6mbps down and 2mbps up. Really, not complaints and never went into AT&T nor called them. The joy of having GSM.

I made the switch to Verizon ... my battery lasts me through the workday if I forget to charge it (and about 50% of the time I'm in the basement and the phone is constantly searching for a signal that just isn't there, so it drains a bit faster than it normally would). The GSM version is supposed to be significantly better, so I don't see how the battery issue would be a concern for you.
The network is amazing on Verizon though, my BAD speeds beat my GOOD speeds when I was on Tmo.
If I wasn't getting a work discount though, I probably wouldn't have made the switch due to price. As it is, I'm paying about the same as Tmo and getting 1GB less data and no texts (I use Google Voice so this isn't an issue). But, I'm glad to have the extra 16GB storage since there isn't an option for expansion.
This phone (GSM or CMDA) is well worth it. It's been running great and has had no issues. The stock ringtones are a bit quiet, but if you use your own, it gets a lot better. I think most of the people who complained about the volume are using the stock tones.
Everything is pretty much smooth on this phone ... I haven't had any of the lag issues I've come to know from my G1, Vibrant and G2x.

Yeah, it's not so much the network, as Verizon is just as good as AT&T here in Illinois. It's that I have unlimited data and staying with AT&T allows me first crack at the the Galaxy S3 when it hits (not sure Verizon would even get that).
So it looks like their are different builds for different regions? Anyone know which build you get from Negri?

Depends where they get their shipment from. Surely they're sourcing them from wherever they can. If it really bothers you that much, you'll always be able to just flash the "official" Google yakju build. Although I have doubts it really matters as much as ppl think.

To be honest its either get a Galaxy Nexus or a Sgs2 variant. These are the two top phones out right now. I'm coming from a sgs2 and don't regret it. With the 32GB coming there is really nothing else to want. The sgs3 won't be here for another 6-8 months if that. I have to see how quadcores play with the battery.
The issues you mention can be fixed with a kernel/baseband flash. I had the phone for almost a week and only had 1 reboot and that was probably off of me testing radios and kernels. No grainy lines. Volume was fixed by volume+. Best phone I had and I almost touched every phone out carrier wise. The support is there that's all you need. If there is a issue XDA can fix it.
Unless it's a broken power button lol

i got mine from daily steals during the $560 sale and i haven't had a single problem with it, im still trying to find the right kernel/ROM combination to give me amazing battery life but thats only because i like to run it as fast as it can

I could kick myself for not jumping on that. Anyone know when the 32gb model will be available?
I'm also on AT&T and am extremely happy with this phone. I got mine on Amazon through one of the resellers. I haven't talked to AT&T in years, and have been off contract for even longer.
I get about 3-7 mbps download speeds, but I live in a poor AT&T area. I haven't had the opportunity to try it out in a larger city yet. Battery life is phenomenal, and I solved the volume issues by downloading Volume+ for free from the dev's website. It's working great, so I think I'll toss him a couple bones by buying it legit from the market.
I don't use local music or movies on my phones, so 16gb will work out just fine for me. The only downside I've had is the inability to put the phone in USB Mass Storage, but there are apps to facilitate transfer (Wifi Explorer Pro is the one I use).
I just got my Nexus from Expansys-USA, and i haven't been happier. Came from a SGS2, and probably the biggest difference is the screen. The nexus is BEAUTIFUL! and needless to say, ICS is the most stable and complete Android version to date.
Im having no issues whatsoever, and like i said, i haven't been happier.
Edit: if you buy from Expansys, you get a $60 Simple Mobile refill card for free, which i sold on ebay for a cool $50. Not bad if I say so myself

I'm in Illinois, so I'm hit with about $70 worth of tax. $622 from Negri will be the way to go. But I hear great things about Expansys.
I got my Galaxy Nexus from Daily Steals, and it's working great. I immediately rooted it and installed CM9 on it. I had signal issues at first with the default radio, but I flashed UGKL1 which fixed all of my issues.
Sorry to revive this old thread, but do I have an iPhone 4 and should be getting a GNexus from expansys tomorrow. Do I have to call at&t to switch anything in my account or to activate my sim with HSPA+ or something like that?

No. With all unlocked GSM phones, all you need to do is swap out your sim card. Then you're all set.
You don't have to ask for permission from your carrier like the Verizon and sprint customers do.

I have a Nexus 1 and have unlimited data working with the web2go $9.99 plan.
The Nexus S did not work with the web2go because Tmobile blocked it. They had the phones imei #'s. The Nexus one was sold by Google so Tmobile did not have the imei #'s
So going off these facts, If I buy the UK Galaxy Nexus will the web2go data plan work?
did the web2go give you edge speeds, or just 3g speeds? or did it give you HSPA as well? and my last question, will it also give you 4g in the galaxy nexus as well? (if it isn't blocked)

Yes it gives me 3g speeds. I think even HSPA+ speeds too (or what the nexus1 limits are capable of. Posted a pic of speed results i just ran)
About the 4g speeds in the galaxy nexus, well in theory if i web2go works then yes I would think that HSPA+ speeds would be achievable.

Its a $9.99 data plan for dumb phones. Tmobile knows if you are using a dumb phone or a smartphone though. So they wont let you use it, BUT certain phones like the nexus one and other unlocked phones can use this plan by messing with their APN settings.
I believe the setting is internet2.voicestream.com, right? If so, I think as long as the GN is unlocked, it should work. According to this link, GN works on T-Mobile.

BTW, I'm using a SE X10i from Norway on T-Mobile. No issue w/ internet2.voicestream.com. 3G & all works fine.

I remember setting the APNs to try to get this to work back in the day when I had a WinMo6 phone. This was...5, 6 years ago? Even back then they were blocking smartphones. I highly doubt you could get this to work today.

Yea... probably 5~6 yrs ago... Had SE X1i back then. Was getting only EDGE speed...
Well, up till today, I am still using internet2.voicestream.com. Still pay $9.99 per month. Gets EDGE, 3G, and HSPA depending on area's coverage... (Must say that T-mobile's 3G/H coverage isn't as good as AT&T, but it's cheap...)
I use SE X10i, unlocked, running custom CM7 ROM. Had it for 2 yrs and never had problem with internet2.voicestream.com setting.
Therefore, chances of the same setting working is likely... @ least I'm betting ~$800 on it... =S

I know T-Mobile did some sh!t like that on the Nexus S. Coworker bought 1 from Best Buy. Worked fine at first. Then got locked out about a week or less. He then updated his data plan to $30, and works fine again. This kinda crap, I don't think will happen to the UK version. T-Mobile-USA can't have all the IMEI# in the world... We'll see soon enough in a wk or more time if the seller ships on time...

They had the #'s for the Nexus S' sold because they were made for T-mo's AWS 3G. Surely T-mobile got the IMEI's for these.

Will the US carriers ever stop screw their customers over? Probably not. It's kind of sad really but it shows what happens with no competition (as in every phone working on every carrier within the country).
any word with tzones/web2go?
also, i wonder if itd make a difference whether the phones bought from an american vendor, as opposed to an overseas one..
Got my GNex today!! (Am happy man right now!)
Plugged my T-Mobile SIM into the GNex... and guess what? GNex loaded the epc.tmobile.com settings automatically... and it WORKS even tho I am on the $10 plan.
Didn't seem to have any issue after about 1 hr of use... But I switched back to internet2.voicestream.com settings... Don't know if t-mobile tracks users on epc.tmobile.com or not, but better be safe than sorry...
After switching to internet2.voicestream.com, internet is working as it should. No issue after another hr of use...
If things change, will make another post.
PS. BTW, this is UK version's GNex. US version doesn't seem to be supporting GSM bands...
Cool, keep us updated if anything changes!
Had been holding off, but now there's no reason to!
We hope.
Are there any downsides to doing this?
I have a Galaxy Nexus on the way and am not currently a T-Mobile customer. How would I go about getting my GN on the web2go plan?
You can't anymore, unless you already have a T-mob account with that data plan. That's kind of the point. Once you give up the grandfathered data plans, or "upgrade" to an Android data plan (at least $20), it's gone forever. So it behooves anyone who still has it to hold on to it.
Way way back, in the early days of wireless data, T-mobile had a $3? plan, on GPRS. Then it went up to $5. I have the $5.99. Then they started offering a $10 plan. That was available up until maybe last year? I think it's completely unavailable now.

Hi everybody. Happy new year to everyone here.
I have a small question about GN. I already sold my T-Mobile SGS2 to get the GN. But since last night I am browsing here and all what I see is a lot of issues going on with the phone. But I am going to get it anyways. So my question here is the device worse the money I am going to pay for it. Is GN better then SGS2 I know there so many vs reviews but I want to know based on the personal experience. Also I am between 2 online sites to get from
http://www.welectronics.com
https://negrielectronics.com
I don't have any experience with online buying so I need some adivec please.
I am sorry if my questions are dumb but also the phone is not cheap
A lot of the issues people are reporting are signal issues which relate only to the Verizon version. It appears you have tmobile, so you shouldn't have any problems there. Welectronics is a chicago-based store and I bought my Nexus from them in person. They're very nice people and offer a pretty good price (I didn't have to pay tax because I bought it in person). I've had no problems whatsoever with my Nexus that I bought from them.
negri has some nice coupons you can find to drop the price even more. They also give you a years warranty through them. to the best of their ability anyway.
i'm on t-mobile with a galaxy nexus. i came from a nexus one. for the most part signal seems to be the same. I am getting better data speeds, but no where near what i should be getting (i've seen true tmo phones get 22Mbps+ when my Gnex gets 5Mbps in the same spot.)
only issue i've had with signal was at the bank atlantic center hockey stadium. it showed 3g but i couldn't make calls, texts, or anything. rebooted 4 times and no change. girlfriends phone (dumb phone) showed 3g and made texts and calls just fine. this was only when we were in our seats though. if i walked out to the walk way around the stadium i could call and text.
Only other issue is that certain apps seem to almost refuse to work on edge. facebook and the NFL app basically just crash or freeze when on edge, and on my nexus one that never happened. luckily tmo has vastly improved their signal here so i'm not on edge that often anymore.
aside from that the phone has been great and has the best call quality of any tmo device i've ever used.
I suspect lots of the issues are posted by either competitors or pubescent boys worried about their penile length. I have a GN and it's great.
Definitely buy this phone.
Personally, if you're coming from the tmobile Gs2 I think it is an upgrade. If it was int'l or at&t version I think you would be side stepping.

Every device forum in xda has complaints. Just visit any device forum you will see bunch of issues. Anyway don't hesitate in buying the gsm version, most issues should be fixed by software updates.
At this point I wouldn't buy any Android device other than the galaxy nexus.

I know it's not big upgrade but I love to have pure google. I am getting tired of the carriers till they think to upgrade the phone will be out of date.
I have not found my answer from hours and hours of searching. You do not need to unlock phone before SIM install but you do have to change apn settings

I've ready WAY too many bad reviews of straight talk to cancel my AT&T plan and use their network. All the reviews state that you get what you pay for, half the price, half the service. If anything goes wrong with their service they provide zero help. I'm not sure how they can get away with tagging onto other service providers networks. I'll just use my company's 22% discount and keep my grandfathered unlimited plan.

Today is day three and I can honestly say that I love it it's just like having my old plan we do not have LTE here anyways but now I have unlimited minutes unlimited text and 4g Internet which is plenty for me even if it is only 2.5 or so gigs. Everywhere I used my phone besides my car has Wi-Fi access so I'm constantly connected to Wi-Fi saving about $100 a month on my plan is absolutely amazing to me and I will use that money for other things. The only downfall is I lose my warranty from my cell phone and I also do not get upgrades but that's okay. Saving over $1200 a year is good enough for me. Unlimited text messaging and 3 GB Internet cost me more than this whole plan itself

My wife was on it for a month with the iPhone 4. She claims she had a lot of problems with SMS, MMS (had to hack it to work), calling and data. Things that never happened to her before. To me is sounded like issues I always had with At&t, I recently switched to a company phone I personally can't comment on the service. I had another friend that switched his wife over also and for the most part she hasn't had many issues but there are some. I will be switching her over to T-Mobile prepaid next week (with the Galaxy Nexus :victory.
She had issues with the MMS because it was a known issue between iPhones and MVNOs. There are guides out there, but yeah, iPhones need to be jailbroken to work properly.
As for the service, ST is excellent, if you know what you're doing. You're paying $45/month, but you're on your own. Don't expect tech support for network issues (which AT&T's idiots can't give anyways), but calls, coverage, speeds are all the same as AT&T's HSPA network.
TBay, as far as how they "get away with" providing their service, are you unaware of how MVNOs actually work?

As for the service, ST is excellent, if you know what you're doing. You're paying $45/month, but you're on your own. Don't expect tech support for network issues (which AT&T's idiots can't give anyways), but calls, coverage, speeds are all the same as AT&T's HSPA network.
TBay, as far as how they "get away with" providing their service, are you unaware of how MVNOs actually work?

Not really, could you tell me? All I have heard is that they use other network providers cell towers for service. Seems sketchy to me.
All I know is it feels just like my old AT&T service but at 1/3 of the price. I had att for 5 years and I notice no difference

Never mind
I have ST working on locket AT&T SGS3.
However.
From the start I had issues activating my SMS and data (it was on older Captivate phone). It took me and ST three weeks to figure it out. So if u r patient - go with ST. I got their 1 year prepaid (slightly cheaper than monthly).
T-mo offers 100min/UnlimSMS/UnlimNet for $30/mo prepaid. Good for teens.

I would rather have the T-Mobile plan instead of what I have but I love AT&T service I do not get T-Mobile service at all at my job and I get maybe one bar at my house . AT&T and Verizon are the only two companies that work at my job everything else there's no signal

Last time I thought about moving to ST I had to buy a $199 phone just to get the sim card. Has it changed to where I can get a sim card without buying a crap smartphone?
Yes

well this is my experience with straight talk
i been using it for a year i first start with the original nokie e71 it was good but i wanted something more like android...so i did buy a lg thrive on gophone store...put my sim on it and everything was working plus i was using android on at&t network for only $45+tax before i was paying between $100 and $120 for a 3G phone it was good excellent customer service but too much for my pocket...
ok then i decided to try a better phone samsung infuse i sold the lg and i got the infuse even better i was getting speeds 4mb average on 4G now i had use too many phones..galaxy s2 ,galaxy 2skyrocket,iphone4 and now my galaxy sIII which gave me speeds maximun at 11MB at my town no problems with straight talk the only thing that frustrate is monitoring data you should not use more that 2g at month or 100mb at day..but come on for $45 1/2 of the price i did pay for the same service...

Are you using the apn settings at the first page of this thread? I am and my data speeds are dismal. Half the time the google play store will not even open.
Thanks
If you know someone who is on ST or Net10 or Tracfone or Simple Mobile and they get fast speeds in your home or work and you don't it's because they have a throttle on you. Two things to know if you buy their phone you'll be lucky to get faster than 300kbs prove me wrong I want you to because everyone I know who got their phones can't go over the limit because the throttle right out of the box. Now if you get the sim on your own phone you get what ever speed is available based on phone radio capability and the carrier under the brand. All of those except Simple Mobile are ATT and Simple Mobile is T-Mobile which with an AT&T phone will require you to unlock the phone. All calls ride on any tower available with these mvno's so coast to coast calling (Verizon) level call capability is included via roaming which is unlimited. If you bring your own phone and you start out with fast data and all of a sudden you drop down to 300k or less then you have been throttled. The calls to attempt them to undo that are a waste of time they will not admit you are even being throttled so to fix this you buy a new sim card and keep an eye on your usage then you will be able to get away with a month of 6Gbs of usage or more as some report I speak from experience as this is how I solved the problem. Some of you may say why not just keep your Sim and wait for it to reset because with all of these providers they don't forgive or forget and keep you capped for life as long as you keep that locked sim.
Hope this helps clear the air on how these kind of providers work so you are aware up front. I got capped because I used 12Gb in one day at super fast speeds of 18Mbs which is super fast for these providers compared to Virgin etc. However second time around new Sim I used over 31G the next month no throttle and still fast to this day.
Keep this in mind when you want to go with any of these providers.
Thanks,
JK

Now that I think about it, since its no contract; sims are cheap just keep switching sims until they act right with you. Still cheaper than $120 a month on a contract with limits and charges for overages! No taxes either when you pay online.
Sprint and T-Mobile is a crap shoot for service in 50% of the country that is why those two companies have not joined in on the slaughter of our wallets like Verizon and AT&T but just wait and see they will be forced off that horse once Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and Google are done frying them up for dinner with the DOJ anti-trust suits coming their way.
Because if the utilities don't return to their flat rate model it will be impossible for them to survive as their is a massive migration to push corporations to the cloud and no one in any company is going to recommend moving to a cloud if the prices suddenly quad-drippled; if they want to keep their job that is.
They are taking away consumer choice and acting anti competitive favoring their own services for greed instead of competing for your business as that is the old American way.
What we are seeing now resembles the NAZI way of doing business squeeze you until you bleed.
But hey greed is the new American way.

i had a gsm gnex on ATT, friday i ditched ATT and picked up verizon, loved my gnex, so i got a new one for my wife and i. here are my impressions of the differences between the gsm and cdma versions
first, i was easily able to use one click to unlock and root both gsm and cdma versions. the cdma did not require any special treatment to unlock, cwm, root and install 3rd party roms. it was the EXACT same procedure as the GSM.
physical differences, the cdma is just slightly thicker, honestly, i can barely tell, but, my cruzerlite case fit both just fine. the cdma feels slightly heavier, but not enough to make a difference. the power button feels harder to push in over my GSM version though, not a big deal though.
the screen on the CDMA version is perfect, my GSM had the typical banding streaks, cdma version, screen is crystal clear.
battery life was better on my GSM, but this is probably due to LTE
i never thought i would need over 16gb, since i have never had more than that on any device, but, i will say i will never have less than 32gb again, lol. the extra storage is nice! no more deleting music or backups just to install a game!
signal strength is about the same in different areas (home, work, places i frequent), but the LTE speeds are worlds difference over HSPA
all in all, the talk about the verizon gnex not a real gnex, not sure where or why that came about, it looks, feels and performs the same as my GSM.
Maybe it's time to learn how to use adb and fastboot..

One difference between the GSM and CDMA Nexus is that you can use the GSM Nexus on Straight Talk Sim (Att or Tmo) for $45 per month and the Verizon one will cost you anywhere between $85-$110 per months. Over the course of 2 years you could save around $700+ by using GSM, if I did my math right (Verizon phone is subsidized, GSM is unsubsidized).

i have multi line family plans, discounted from work. att was $160 per month, 700 minutes shared, 200 texts each month, 2 gb data on main line, 200mb on all others. verizon is $125, 4gb shared data plan, unlimited all others.
straight talk is cool if you're trying to save money, but, i can't rely on a straight talk service with running a business off my devices.

You are right. I guess it depends on how many lines you have. Shared data does probably benefit a person with three or more lines. For a single line or two lines, Straight Talk Sim is a way better option though, because you get 2+gigs of data with unlimited calls and text on each line.
It is really nice to be able to switch carriers as needed as opposed to "Here it comes were shoving it up your *** enjoy the year and a half you have left on your plan." Prepay is the only way for me. I come from sprint the land of "We"ll have that 4g\lte working any day now!" I don't miss it at all.

The reason it's not considered a true nexus is not really the phone it's the carrier The phone is great, its the 2 moron companies Verizon and sprint that jack around forever waiting to let the updates come through for the nexus. It becomes somewhat ordinary when the gsm gets it and you are still waiting......but you most likely know all this. I'm sure lte is great but on a 4gb shared cap it's not that big of a deal.

i dropped att 7 months into the contract, no fees, they were not providing me with the data speeds i needed, i was able to leave contract because of this. just because you're in a contract, doesn't mean you can't get out if they are not providing you with the service you signed up for.

like i said, i came from 2GB + 200mb + 200mb on my lines and never went over. on verizon i have 4gb (more than enough) and it's faster (rarely got over 1mb down on att, and any other time the signal was spotty and unreliable, getting between 7 and 10mb down now. yes, the straight talk plans run off of att/tmobile networks, same as others. but, in my area, the att network was crap, so regardless if i'm saving $18 per line or not, i'd rather have a network i can rely on. see below for an example of my lightning fast, reliable att network

you and i both know that anyone here, should care less about OTA updates. i think friday was the first time, in over 10 years of smart phones/pdas, that i have ever done an OTA update.
It's too bad your Att is that slow. I can get anywhere between 3-7mbs down with Straight Talk Att. You can get 4gigs (maybe eve more) of data with 2 Straight Talk lines for $90 total per month ($45 for each line). That's a lot less than $125 per month, and its contract free. But I understand you gotta have decent coverage, it's worth nothing without coverage.
This phone (gsm) version is the first one i have felt i didn't NEED to do something to. It's nice just to be able to run it as google intended it to be rather than root/rom so it brings it to the point where it's enjoyable. That's what makes the cdma version a little weak, you are FORCED to do something if you want latest and greatest. Will most people root/rom the cdma and gsm versions? I suppose, but it's really nice to not feel like you HAVE to. Did it feel nice to do that ota update? It's almost like moving into a modern world. Ten years of messing with phones to get it right? Seems at this point we should know what to buy and from which carrier to buy it from to make our lives a little easier, don't you think?

I don't know if you've seen a Verizon nexus or not, but i feel the same way about not needing to flash a Rom right out of the box. I just got my nexus about a week ago, and 15 minutes after i got it activated, i got the jellybean update. It's as pure Google as they come. The only apps Verizon has on there was My Verizon Mobile and backup assistant. I used to have a droid charge, and I'm glad to say that the nexus was a welcome change. The only thing i really had to do to it was install the Swype keyboard, and it's perfect (for now).

This isn't the case with sprint, we switched (my family) to Verizon from Sprint, every line had to pay 150$ i think. Data was spotty and Verizon had brought Lte to our little area in VA. meanwhile, sprint was discontinuing the rollout of Wimax and began creating their LTE towers, so there was no way we were waiting for that again. We had already had wimax 4g phones so we needed new phones anyway. Long story short, Sprints unlimited data is useless in many suburban and even urban areas.

here's what i did to get out, no fees.
i called tech support because i suddenly stopped getting signal at work. they opened a ticket, called me back the next day saying it was "resolved". i had no change. i started losing reception at home, and the signal started getting spotty everywhere else. i call tech support again, they tell me it's my phone, ok, i have plenty of extras, so i swap sim into another phone, same results. they tell me my sim needs to be exchanged and reprovisioned and i need to go to the att store to do so. i go to the att store, they stare at me like i was speaking a foreign language and basically tell me "no". i go back home, call tech support, they tell me go back to store, they will call the store. i go back to the store, talk to rep, he now knows what to do. so he gets a new sim, reprovisions it, then tells me to run a speed test, because this will fix all my problems. i ran it, 80kbs, he was like, uh... i call tech support from my phone with the sales rep, the line was so staticy the tech rep had to call us back at the store, tech support tells me there's nothing more they can do and that their policy is they can't guarantee service everywhere. i then contacted the BBB, teh FCC and the attorney generals office for complaints. i then get a call back from the office of executives at att, my line was so staticy that they immediately cancelled the account right there.
if you are plagued with issues, you can get out of the contract. the BBB is a great resource, they have to respond to close out the complaint filed with the BBB

Well c6506 is the LTE version supports Att and tmo LTE. If your previous phone was a 4g att then I believe it should work right off just swap sims. APN should download automatic is my understanding.

Oops, I guess it would help to answer the OP's question. Yes, you can just stick in your SIM card and the phone will automatically pick up LTE. The APN has all the entries correct except it was missing the APN type entries though -- that may affect MMS but I didn't test it, just went ahead and put in admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri out of habit.
So far this phone is a total winner.
Put my Nano SIM w/ and adapter fro my iPhone 5 into the ZL and got ATT LTE right away, 25mb downloads, just as fast as the iPhone5.
This phone also has Google Wallet, while I'ver never really used it, I turned it on and will try it out, something that hasn't been talked about on this device.
Other than that just setting it up, I had a GS3 a while back so I'm sorta familiar , but the speed and UI seem good.
The location of the power button on the side is a big plus over reaching for it on the top, the iPhone and Galaxy have the actual home button, which I prefer.
Speaker volume is OK, not super loud but good, a little tinny.
I paired the Bluetooth with my car and at first it had some static when listening to Spotify or making a call so I unpaired and did it all again and that seemed to fix it.
Also I got a Sony system update after the phone was turned on.
So in sort, for a full ATT LTE device, I wont use 3G only this thing looks good so far.

Is the display as washed out as others make it seem? I'm coming from a nexus 4 where the display is less than stellar, but price to performance ratio is amazing. Thanks! Also if you get a chance to toss nova launcher on there just to see what it looks like on a 1080p screen, that would be awesome. Thank you!

I'm expecting it Tuesday as my order specified. After reading PCNation reviews I'm finding they may have a habit of showing items as "in stock" than leaving the order status as "pending cc approval", as my order has been all day, until their stock arrives. I'm just getting nervous....
