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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
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.

So I have a nexus running AOKP 40, I have google wallet set up and a card added. Beam is on and NFC is set to activate when screen is unlocked. I tried to make some purchases at two different walgreens today but there was no response from google wallet when I put it up to the reader.
Anyone else having this issue? I've restored to stock and will try that later when I go out, hoping its just the rom and not something deeper.
Thanks for any help.
What kind of reader? Was it that clear blue plastic looking reader?
Sent from my sprint galaxy nexus
Yeah it was at a Walgreens. The clear blue reader with the symbol at the top for NFC.
You may know this but I had the happen a couple times but the reason was the phone wasn't on the pad correctly. I found that the Center of the phone is a good spot for the transaction. I tried the top half and it wouldn't work half the time

Yeah those aren't the right ones you need the solid readers those are strictly for the cards I guess. Its not the ROM or the phone those just plain don't work.

Yeah mine looked slightly similar .. but didnt see google wallet or anything similar. It could be that they just havent set it up yet...
they look something similar to This although this one looks newer the ones i've had succes with are the ones at like CVS or 7/11 .
Alright thanks. Is there any way to find stores that have these readers other than just hunting them down?
I found the tool on the official google wallet site. Thanks for all the help.
Interestingly enough, none of the walgreens in my area show up as vendors that support it.

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?
______________________________
Yes, I've searched multiple threads and such and haven't been able to locate a certain type of case I'm looking for.
I have this case in red for my Galaxy S4:
http://www.amazon.com/Bear-Motion-G...5944368&sr=8-3&keywords=galaxy+s4+bear+motion
and am looking for something with a similar texture as this for my Nexus 7 (2013).
It doesn't have to be real leather, but I'm looking for something as slim and with a similar feel to it.
The closest I've found was this:
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-SLIM-Fit-Flexible-Google-Generation/dp/B00ELQHVXS/ref=pd_cp_pc_0
But I don't like the colors available.
I'm more into a dark orange or red.
If anyone has more information on cases like these, I would greatly appreciate it.
How about this?

What about purchasing the Fosmon case that you linked, then wrapping it in which ever skin you like best from the 2nd post? Doesn't get you the exact case that you're looking for, but it would offer you a decent solution since the case you want isn't available. Just a thought...

Ordering one soon,
in description it says "Galaxy S6 edge+ and Galaxy Note 5 require a software update from your carrier."
Do we already have that update or expect one soon? Let me know how it work outs if you get one.
Pe-ordered mine today from Best Buy. I'm also wondering and trying to find out about the updates. Hopefully AT&T won't drag their feet and release it soon.

Anyone else with one here feel like you're looking through a screen door with this thing?
I love it but I get this weird pixel layer that makes the very low resolution. Watching a 3d 1080p movie looks more like a 240 movie.
Anyone else?

Anything above 720p is a waste, that's the best resolution you'll get until 4k or higher screens on phones
