yes, here in Italy we still have mediaworld (aka mediamarket) that in some of their shop is still selling the NS. Unfortunately the price still also not cheap.

I bought mine on Ebay...and the seller ended up being a fellow xda member!

I've got mine on Amazon.

also ebay

I got mine in future shop for 0$ (1 month ago) on a two year contract no data! It was the last one in stock. Don't think you will be able to find them in stores anymore though.

Not true at all, look at the price tmobile is selling it for. Tmobile is more than Google play. I bought my N4 for 300 at the time before the price cut hapoen and tmobile still charges 400+.

Hi all. Recently got my hands on the nexus 5 and I was wondering if it comes with LTE/4G? I live in the UK and ordered from Google play store?

Maybe you should search on their site a bit before you ask. Hint: Look under Frequently Asked Questions.

He didn't say to ask about it. Did you not read their FAQ as suggested?

I'm not sure how you couldn't find it, it's easy. Just search OnePlus FAQ.

this is from the opo website and official emails:
"Remember that this invite can only be used for orders shipping to Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and United States."
you can maybe use a 3rd party shipping company to ship to Israel.

Is this model made only in china?

Hi, want to buy this phone but for now, I only saw pieces that made in china. Does Samsung make it only in china or in Korea also? My old note 10.1 n8000 made in Vietnam.

Mine made in Korea.

Yea, saw yesterday at the store black one that made in Korea.

I personally dont prefer the one made in korea. My old S2 and the Note Edge made in korea, and they have very bad screen. Their screens are cloudy.

So Vietnam make is the best for Samsung?

Imo China and Vietnam seem to have much better batches.

You sure? I always thought that Korea these days is just like "made in Japan" few years ago.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda premium

Mine N 915F (for the middle east) was made in China. compared it with the European model N-915FY (Made in Kore) and I found the korean model is much elegant and superior to the chinese one.

For my experience with my S2 and Note Edge, both made in Korean, I always have issue with their screen. The screens are very cloudy, you can see it while viewing pictures. Your photos will have a cloudy layer on top. It doesnt happen with my wife S2 made in china and her s6edge made in vietnam.

I have N8000 tablet that made in Vietnam. No problems almost 3 years now.
Because edge is premium phone I thought that it should have no issues or quality problem but reading here, understand that there will be still quality differences.
So, maybe to buy a Vietnam made ?
