Nexus 5 from Japan? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
I am currently using a Nexus 4 and I'd love to buy the new N5...I got a nice offer from a guy who tells me he is having a friend who can get me a N5 imported from Japan.Its the D821 model which works fine in my country.I've got two questions since the price I'm given is exactly the google play price and doesn't seem like he is having any profit out of this deal
1). Is there anything i should check before i buy it??
2). How to check whether its a genuine phone or not??
3). Is it cheaper in Japan??
Thanx alot in advance

I sold my desire for £75 and will easily get £200 for the one S. Yeah, i want the updates faster!!
Thanks but no, I'll stay with the One S.
When I bought it two months ago, I wanted a 4,3'' screen, a slim device device, and a gorgeous design.
According to me, the Nexus 4 has none of this things.

Amazon and eBay are great places to purchase devices online. The Google Nexus 4 is one option: http://www.google.com/nexus/4/

The international one, because it will get software updates faster, no at&t bloatware, and you don't live in an LTE area so there shouldn't be a differencr

I'm looking for someone from Australia to forward me a Nexus 5, I'd afford all the costs (obviously) + beer.

Buy on eBay and someone can ship with eBays global shipping program if they want to or have someone drop ship

When can we actually buy one?

Haha. Seems it was officially released but yet you can't buy it yet? Can only get one from an invite.
Any idea when we can buy one?

Original Quote by OnePlus Admin Carl : 2014 Q2 Production Update Today at 9:01 PM:
When we started OnePlus, one of the first things we announced was that our product would be available internationally in Q2 2014. We're well on track of achieving that.
However, after our product announcement, we realized that far more people wanted the One than what we originally anticipated. Over the past few days, we have been frantically adjusting our production schedule to make sure that as many people possible can buy the One, as soon as possible.
In our updated plan, we prioritized for two aspects; time to market and availability of the high capacity model (in that order). We now know that people want the 64GB Sandstone Black far more than the 16GB Silk White, but we also know that more than everything, people just want to get their hands on the device as soon as possible.
What we've done is dramatically increase the amount of 64GB Sandstone Black models in our production plans, while producing 16GB Silk White as long as they don't delay the time to market for Sandstone Black.
Our production schedule is as follows:
Ready now - 100 for phone smashers
Mid to late May - Larger batch 16GB Silk White for the first batch of invites
Early June - Larger batch 64GB Sandstone Black
Later in June - Increased general availability, people who want it should be able to get an invite without much trouble in June

I think this message is clear enough and i hope it will not be delayed more to get on of this piece!!!
Cheers
By the time end of June comes around, Two months after the phone was "released" .. I'm sure there will be another phone. Sucks but I'm out. Was looking forward to the opo for a couple days haha.. But not going to wait two months

I already have a decent phone in my LG g pro so having to wait till the end of June isn't a problem for this guy.

I know they don't have the manufacturing capabilities HTC but I thought their release of the m8 was fantastic. Leak the hell out of it, announce it and immediately release it. Every release should be like this imo

Pricing
Man the pricing on the One+ is great but wonder how good the company tech support will be. I'm due for a new phone but LG G3, S5 Prime and Nexus 6 right around the corner.

XDA members always has been my tech support but hardware problems always gets to me.
But if they are releasing 100 phones a week for the next 2 months it will take a year before enough devs have the phone and can do good stuff..

Yeah but LG G3 and S5 prime is going to cost 600$/euro at least(like every other their flagship). Which is 2 times more than Oneplus One. I think Nexus 6 will be released later after August but who knows...
And when would it be available in india ?

You can switch backs later. I think white will be an option.

Hi Everyone, Not been here for a while, since I defected to apple... Anyway, really looking forward to this OPO, I think its going to be a turning point for some flagship market domineers.
What I'd like to know is, does anyone know which retailers or phone outlets will be selling it?
To my understanding no retailer will ever sell the one plus one. You need to buy it directly from them. Though that's at least a couple months away.
