Verizon Galaxy Nexus retail box pics

Verizon galaxy nexus devices are being shipped to retail stores this week

How did you get those photos? And do you have anymore info?

nice! thanks for the pics. Excitement +1

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!
Question: Why is the box just plain white? Is it a demo unit of some sort?

niceeeeeee when can i pre order one?

It looks soo, fat.

how long does it generally take for phones to go on sale after they hit the store? I'd imagine they dont sit there long do they?

Like why hasn't this thread exploded yet?

by the looks of that stainless steel table ... looks more warehousish to me. Not that it's bad or anything i guess. Like the packaging.

i liiiiike.
not sure what's up with the box tho

Way too THICK"

Forget about the box...... give me my nexys

I'm really hoping to hear where these pics came from and what kind of other information can be given. I'm also not sure why there aren't already 50 people in here commenting.

i was thinking the same but it was just because of the angle of the picture

Also notice on the screen plastic it points to vzw.com/galaxynexus and not google.com/nexus, like all the other nexus phones.
Very weird.

just a bad picture angle

gimme gimme gimme!

I'm no image expert, but there are a couple of rogue reflections there. Also, there's some weird seams on the screen protector. Might be a photoshop special. I don't see a photo of the back with the verizon logo, please post. Also, seems to be some text on the short side of that box in the first shot. Better picture please? Otherwise the rest could be easily greeked. Or, its a demo unit. Not buying that this is a unit/box intended for retail. Hope i'm wrong.

Per my brother who is a manager at my local corp store, the are expecting them in shipment today!

Thanks. I got it from Amazon. Company was Overstock USA for $13.49. Shipping was free. They have different colors as well. Ordered on the 6th and got it on the 9th. Case is a little bit big, but I think the cuteness makes up for it. Here is the link:

Cute case!!! I might have to get one. It looks protective as well

Haha looks like it would be uncomfortable to hold.

I'm a big anime nerd and I keep looking for fun cases like that, but for guys. Heck, a Domo one would be great even, but I'm still on the lookout for an SGS3 Evangelion case.

[Q] UAG for the HTC One?

What do you guys think of the chances that UAG will make a case for us HTC One owners?
Was there any announcement on this before? ...or hints of it?
I wrote a request to the UAG Labs at their official website under 'Customer Support' (Sorry, I still can't post links!). Not sure it would be of any help though... Hopefully they will consider making it. They have great cases and HTC One seems to be a great phone. They would be a great combination! :good:

!
Our prayers has been answered! :angel: A case for the HTC One has appeared on their website. :highfive:
(Again, sorry guys... I still can't post links lol)

Link: http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/collections/htc-one
Looking good IMO.

Think I'll be buying one of those:thumbup:

I am already using for my Samsung Galaxy S3 and its excellant case for 100% protecting the phone from drop and I am going to get white one for my Silver HTC one

Have any of you guys gotten this case? Is the power button covered? Wondering if the IR Blaster feature would work with this case... Thank you!

I can tell from the pictures on their site, the power button is in fact covered.
What a shame, because I was going to get it. I am currently using one on my Galaxy S3.

That would indeed be a shame if what you said is true I wonder if they would ever consider doing a 'revision' of the case in order to solve this issue

The UAG cases do not cover the IR Blaster on the One. Mine should be in tomorrow, and I received an email from Customer Service assuring me that the case shown is just an illustration, and the Power button is not covered on the actual case.

Are you guys ordering directly from UAG?

I did. I couldn't find it any cheaper elsewhere, so I figured I might as well make it simple if I needed to use the warranty.

That's great news! I wonder if they made the case material slightly "grippier" (less slippery) than their previous ones...
That would make this case pretty much perfect! Or am I being too greedy right now and asking for too much :silly: haha

I did the same, I got:
When we launched the GSIII we had limited colors and then spread the palate. This may be the case for HTC One solution.
Thanks for reaching out. We don't have plans for the Aviator for the HTC currently; however, the landscape of our product road is a constantly evolving picture and this may become an option for us in the future. We truly appreciate your comments and suggestions which help us to provide better products and services.

Lifeproof Case on eBay?

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.

Their fake.

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:

LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.

Found it but it's not on lifeproof website.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

Being that lifeproof has yet to release the case, what's the alternative? If you need protection a fake case is better than nothing.

I didn't even know this one existed. I'll have to look into it. I take it you're happy with the case? Is touch sensitivity okay? I had the OBEX for a week and hated it. I like to five and would like to have something I can take on the boat with me that I don't have to worry about getting banned around or splashed. I have no intentions of actually taking it into the water.

I think so

$70 for a pre-order, thats garbage! Just wait for the OPO to go live with it on their site for $50.

Here's my 29 cent version:

I'm really surprised we haven't seen any cheap Chinese knockoff backs yet. And even more surprised that OP still hasn't released these yet

I agree in regards to the knock off part. If they did make knock offs then you'd be losing Nfc as it's in the back of the phone and is attached to the case.
Although the cheap bamboo print out and then using it as the Ringke cover was pretty nice looking.
