Is the galaxy nexus sold by expanxys USA the one supported by google(the yakyu one)?
Yes it is...just received mine today!

Be specific: USA Verizon, or USA everyone else...?
It is. I ordered mine from them but called first, and they said they specifically order ones that are supposed to be yakju. I've heard of a couple of people getting non-yakju versions, but expansys seems pretty anal about this not happening.
They're great to work, very happy with my purchase experience
Thx for the answers, i gonna order one for $609, i guess when the gsm version get to the USA it wont be less than 529 ( nexus s cost) so, i can take $80 dollars loss but i wont be waiting anymore
So I had to get a replacement phone and they sent me one through customer service, now how do I know if its refurbished. The shipping weight shows it being .80lbs. I dont even know if its possible to even have refurbished ones this soon. What do you all think?
Refurbished are guaranteed to be the same quality as new so if it isn't send it back.
consider how many people bought the phone, even though it's only been out a few weeks. there's going to be messed up ones, of course. there may also be new ones as well, if they run out of refurbs. like the above poster said, not to worry, as they're just as good as new.
fake samsung s3 cheap
why samsung s3 phone made in china? galaxy note made from Korea.......
I had to exchanged my phone like 2 Weeks ago. I got a new one, just the phone though. Did you ask the representative if its new or refurbished?

Well....
#1. The shipping weight is low because it is not coming with battery or any accessories, not even a battery door. Just the phone.
#2. There is a possibility it is refurbished, and there is a MMI code ##RTN# that displays whether it is refurbed or not. Has to be 100% stock to see, so don't flash anything.
#3. Hit thanks, and let us know your findings
I want to buy a nexus smartphone but confused with S, Q variants of nexus smartphones. Which one will be best to buy???
Nexus Q is not a phone.
Nexus S is ancient.
Your only current phone option is the Galaxy Nexus.

Is galaxy nexus worth buying?
It's really up to you. Rumours are around that the Nexus phone is getting a revamp soon (within the month) however it may or may not be priced at the $350 mark. If I were you, I'd just wait it out a bit and see.

I would rather wait a few weeks for a new Nexus.
I just grabbed a gnex last week. For 349.00 it was a good deal IMO. The hardware is still relevant and pretty snappy.
Not to say I wouldn't grab the next iteration if it was priced right although I believe it will probably be somewhere in the 600 range. Wasn't that the price of the unlocked Google gnex last year?

$349 when it reached U.S. markets. When it was outside U.S. markets it was ~$700 - $649 before it had to be imported internationally.
VZW users got it for $199 on two-years with ~$529ish off contract but is incompatible with GSM networks
Galaxy Nexus will still be relevant after the next Nexus device comes out. The Nexus S is still relevant, it has good developer support.
wait for the new nexus device made by LG, it will be released within a month or two.
If not, the current nexus (Galaxy nexus) is sufficient.
i would probably wait another month or so if/when the new Nexus comes out. If you don't like it, the Galaxy Nexus will be even cheaper at that time.

Rumored that other manufacturers will release their version of a Nexus as well so there won't be just one Nexus device this year but multiple.
Agreed with what MarkGbe says. Galaxy Nexus will go down in price, Nexus S will go even lower (or be discontinued)

Why do you want a U.S. retailer when you are located in India? Not many big known 'retailers' sell GSM Galaxy Nexuses in stores. Maybe the local random shops. They are normally distributed online, but in that case why don't you order it from someone near you or in Europe? Less shipping costs.
Please do some research beforehand as you haven't done much researched before posting this thread thinking that Nexus Q was a phone. We're just here to answer your question but you need to do at least put effort into answering them on your own. If you find it confusing or whatever, then ask. And if any of us helped you out please press the thanks button.
Who knows maybe the current nexus will actually be taken off the market due to the Samsung vs Apple case that keeps going on. Apple has filed a case against the current nexus and the SG3 I believe...& i don't think they will give the new phone a $350 value they will def start it off around $700 get sales and gradually drop it down till the $350 mark as they did with the current..
I don't think it will come out till December anyway (just in time for the holidays) so if you can't wait till then I suggest you just buy this...
Sell your current phone + when the new nexus comes out you can sell this GNex for atleast a $100-$200 which is not bad at all. The previous nex still goes for $100 which is amazing.

OP lives in India not in America. That case will take ages to settle, by the time it finalizes. The next Nexus device will be out done by HTC, LG, Samsung, Motorola and it'll become irrelevant.
It was $700 because it was imported from Europe and had a monopoly, Off-contract in Europe and places were never $700ish. Prices started to stabilize and go for ~$529ish on Newegg at that point and then Google revived the store and sold the GN for $350. Rumored was that LG Nexus is starting out at 8GB, so you're wrong that there won't be a "value" Nexus device.
The difference this time around will be that Google will sell it through their Play Store stabilizing prices from day one. Google wants people to have their Nexus devices, not to make a extreme profit -- hence, $99 Nexus tablet? $199-$249 Nexus 7 tablet with $25 play store credit? they're not that greedy.
& I stand corrected...
but I still do not believe that they will release a 8gb device...If anything that will be a media player? not a phone as Samsung has been doing lately...
You make me feel like I made a bad decision now lol I am suppose to get my nexus in the mail today
I live in India too. You can't use Sprint or Verizon. If you want to buy it, you'll have to buy the unlocked GSM variant from he Google play website. Although this won't be available from India. If you have a friend in the US, ask him to order it for you. That's what I did, and I'm loving it

I am trying to find a Samsung OEM Galaxy Nexus i9250 Black Full LCD Display with Touch Screen
Digitizer Assembly. I see several "compatible" ones on Ebay (not Super Amoled), but I cannot find
a genuine Samsung OEM digitizer with the exception of a couple of Chinese sites that I am not sure
I could trust. I contacted Samsung and they advised me that they do not sell parts to consumers.
Has anyone tried any of the digitizers for sale on Ebay?
I bought one from eBay couple of months ago to replace my wife's broken screen after i was quoted 300$ from local shops. I got it for 180$ and replace it myself. Have no problems with it since then, it actually looks better than my Galaxy Nexus that has the original one, much better colors.

Thanks for the feedback. I had seen some comments on other message boards where a couple of people who had
used digitizers bought on ebay were not pleased with the display. I am happy to hear of your positive experience,
so I may take a second look at buying one off Ebay, if I am unable to locate a Samsung OEM digitizer. Who was the
seller on Ebay that you purchased from?
Samsung replaced my screen for $191.60 with free shipping on the way back.
Once they received it, they gave it to ups in 4 business days.

I did contact Samsung, but my Galaxy Nexus is a UK GSM phone that I purchased from Expansys USA. Samsung USA will not support or repair my phone in any way. I then contaced Samsung in the UK and they advised me that they would not repair my phone because I do not live in the UK. I contacted Expansys USA to see if they could send the phone to Samsung UK for repair on my behalf, and they said the charge would be between $200.00 and $300.00. I thought it was odd that he quoted me an estimated cost with that wide of a range. The Expansys representative did not seem very interested in my problem.
I was anxious to get my Galaxy Nexus when it was first released, and that is why I purchased it from Expansys USA. I see now why some people cautioned me about buying from importers. I will never buy another phone from an importer.
hey all. nexus 4 user here.
dropped my baby on concrete and shattered it, and then dropped it in water (both on accident, of course!) and now i need to get a new phone. I've had my eye set on the note 3 for some time now. I bought a note 2 last year off ebay, but the seller reported it stolen so he could get a free replacement, and i got screwed, so im not going to trust ebay with high value purchases. I cannot seem to find the tmobile model on amazon, or at least, i can't find one from what looks like a trusted seller. It looks like i need to get the n900t model for tmobile. is the regular n900 model compatible with tmobile 4g? any links would be appreciated, the cheaper the better, obviously!
thanks!
