I believe it was on the android website somewhere. There is a picture displying something that seems to have a 8 inch screen.
Sadly, it's not real, it's the n7 2013. What has happened is that they have added the screen onto the device in post production, it's normal. That is why the display always look so superb and flawless In promotional pictures.
It's just a bad Photoshop job, the display isn't correctly aligned either.
link to an article with an image of it
See how the bezel is thicker on the topmost right side. It is not a nexus 8.
Yes that s the source.
So it s fake?
I would be really, really, REALLY surprised if it wasn't. I can guarantee that this is fake.
Im not sure fake is the word though. More like someone ****ed up at work and made the screen too big.
OK. I see the tablet has been elongated....
The screen has been resized on the top picture. Border is a n7 if we zoom a little.
And with the girl picture, we see it s a n7 elongated.
Photoshop? No.apparently it's an ms paint job
Its not a paint job by social sites...its in andoid site itself
here is the link

scroll the page down and you would see an 8incher... thats true alright...but when it is getting out is the big question

Clearly the images in these two are NOT the same. Photoshop job for sure. The tablet shown on the http://www.android.com/apps-and-entertainment/ page is definitely the N7.

That new image looks just as horrible. Gray smudge marks over the navbar, clearly shopped at her thumb, something around the camera. Gota be the worst of its kind I have ever seen . First the guy gets the size wrong, now this?
Picture Changed
The picture on the web site has been changed. It now looks like the 2013 version of the Nexus 7. Pictures attached.

Not sure if it's a fake or a mistake, but not an N8 either way. Compare the Flipboard icon from the first picture to the second one. The picture is stretched.
What I want to know is, how on earth can people tell the difference between a 7" and an 8" Nexus at first glance?

Exactly as said above, the entire Galaxy Nexus seems to be white, the digitialzer (which was always black before) is white also. Looks like a choppy image however, anyone bought it/planning on getting it and able to post pics?

The Expansys solds phone worldwide,and even Japanese buy some "imported" phones at their country.
Well,I suggest contact for more information,if U still not trust them,U should not buy.
That's all.
Expansys is a very well known website looks legit to me. You can always call to make sure its not an error/inaccurate picture.

Don't think this phone exists... I feel like they just accidentally took one of the photos that was made when the first rumors of the white model came out.
It may or may not exist. They could have colored it themselves, and are selling it off as completely white, or it's like martonikaj said.
Do not check "yes this is a question" unless you are posting in Q&A.
I took the [Q] out of the title since this is a more general topic
Thanks

We definitely did not color it ourselves However, we are discontinuing them. Have a few more than backordered on the way in, but then we wont be offering them anymore.

Hi Corey, thanks for responding.
Just curious, where did you get fully white GNs? I thought they were never manufactured? Is this the work of a third party custom job?
it says the item is discontinued to me
If you check YouTube, you'll see several reviews of full-white Gnex's. It's legit, apparently.

I'm not saying that they're scammers or anything, I'm asking if people have actually seen this, or that its a fake picture, and will come white like other Galaxy Nexii. U should use "you", that is all.

We get them from a few different suppliers actually. I've never opened one myself. It will be back live on the site shortly, for the few remaining ones. We bought a large amount on a closeout, and then got enough to cover our orders + a few extra. Seems someone discontinued it a bit to early so we fixed it. Will come back online soon.
I wonder who made them. They must be custom built... right?

White case, black face
I'm looking right this second at the white GN I bought from Expansys. The body of the phone is white (and gorgeous, might I add), while the front face is black. The photo on Expansys showed an entirely white phone, but I just assumed it was an incorrect photo. (And I was right.)
And, for what it's worth, it came with a UK (I believe? Definitely not standard USA) charger, and an adapter to fit it into a standard USA outlet.
Since it looks like one of the Expansys fellas is in this thread, thanks a lot. Really enjoying my purchase :]

Oh alright, thanks man! I was just confused and kinda hopeful at the same time.

I'm glad my purchase served a greater purpose than simply satisfying my annual gadget refresh compulsion :]
The photo on their page really is sort of confusing. But, given how many black-and-white shots and reviews I saw, I sort of went with Occum's Razor.
Really minor point, but definitely one that confused me for a bit too.
FWIW...I just ordered one the other day and it is white body with black face. I was hoping for something unique. But oh well. Still a pretty phone.
Awwww I was pretty excited as well.
Oh well, just buy a white skin and it'll look the same.

Yeah, I thought it looked like the borders were different. But I was at work, and for some reason symantec was stopping me from watching the video on youtube. So I could only watch it on my phone, and I just wasn't sure on that small screen.
Now we just need the water head on youtube to post a link. So you can verify it.

I'm almost positive they're the same. I actually found the exact color combo which I'm not huge fan of but this one does ship locally instead of from China. It costs more of course.

Wow, these guys have an amazing selection of S3 cases. Practically every case model that I saw during a January shopping trip to the Pearl Market in Beijing. Most of those cases are have got fit and function. Others are poorly fitting garbage. Unfortunately, I didn't try this style on my phone while I was there.
Given that the seller as a 14-day return policy and 99.3% feedback, this looks worth a purchase.

I just like the fact that it's almost perfectly compatible with the official extended battery.
I'm using the Nexus 7 for flying a drone. Looking for a sun hood that will fit and offer good sun shielding.
Anyone tried something that works?

Already rejected that option before asking the question here.
hi , i recently bought a note 4 off of kijiji. i just realized that the box it came in was the fake box where it says n910 on the bottom left corner, yet when i check odin its all in english and shows n910-a, see the attachment, the phone on the left is my coworkers who got one from rogers ( local carrier here in Toronto Canada), mine is on the right side. when i try to run antutu benchmark i get 42-44000 points. the stylus looks like the original stylus but it doesnt activate air command when it comes out, i tried my friends stylus and it worked fine, cpuz shows that i have a snapdragon 805 processor and 32gigs of memory (24ish usable). did i get screwed or what? oh i checked the camera settings and its the same as on my friends camera, and it shows samsung logo during startup. i can take more pictures if anyone else needs it.. also i just noticed a tiny amount of backlight bleed from the bottom right corner where the screen meets the frame.
They look the same to me. Hard to tell, although the batteries look different for sure.
i watched this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoCdjzEDQ5U
now here is what is confusing me :
1. my friends stylus pen is the same as mine, his will turn on air command and mine wont in either. ( bad pen?)
2. my camera settings are the exact same as his,
3. i have the cheap plastic backcover and his is kinda like leather,
4. i have a tiny amount of backlight bleed between the frame and back button on the bottom right corner.
5. cpuz shows that i have snapdragon 805 processor
6. baseband version shows as a legit phone.
see attachment below i took a screenshot of the about phone section
its like a bought a real note 4 that didnt pass quality control and got put in a fake note 4 box lol
You checked s pen settings for the air command?

yes it is all on, my s pen looks exactly the same as his except its a tad bit lighter, it does not look like the fake one, mine wont work in his or mine ( the air command part, the actual pen itself works on the touchscreen) his s pen is detected by my phone and air command works fine on my phone.
did another antutu benchmark, 48000 was score.
One of the tell-tale signs that I started checking for a fake phone was A) processor (which you said was verified to be SD805?), and B) screen resolution. To actually check the resolution quickly and easily, take a screenshot, then open the screenshot in gallery, view info, and see the resolution. Typically fake phones come with 720p screens cuz they're dirt cheap. A 1440 screen, not so much. Maybe take a camera pic as well and do the same and verify the resolution of the image matches what its supposed to be as well (16MP).
I bought an International GS5 last summer off Swappa to use on ATT and be unlockable bootloader. Got the phone and immediately noticed weird things similar to you. Then checked the items I just told you about.... my screen resolution was actually 720 rather than 1080, my camera was only taking 5MP images, my processor was listed as 'unknown', and I had a random build number that there was no record of online. Kinda weird when your phone's build, when put into a google search, comes up with ZERO hits.

When I take a picture and the background is solid, I see a small, gray circle as I focus, and when I take the picture, it is in the picture. Any thoughts as to where this is coming from and what to do about it? I cleaned the lens, but it's still there. If I can figure out how to add a picture, I'll post one so you can see what I'm seeing. The photos are on my laptop if you can tell me how to post them on here. Thanks so much!
Put it on a site like imgur or you can download the XDA app, login, and upload from your phone.

Looks like a dead pixel on the screen. About all you can do is RMA it.
its very possible you have dust on the inside of the camera glass cover, or even on the lens itself.
is the blotch always in the same spot relative to the picture dimensions?
