The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[sbenson]

I think that's ironic, but I really think it's kind of amazing that the screen shot you posted has a post from Benson showing on it. He posts so rarely on this forum, it's cool that you caught one in action.

I maintain a brisk 3.9 posts per day

At this point, I'm thinking no pre-order as well. The chatter can't be ignored. I bet we hear something on Wednesday, for a Friday release.

Ugly white box with pink interior? Check.

At this point they could give it to me in a brown paper bag and I'd still be happy.

hmy: Wow, thats the ugliest setup for a phone this year. I guess i dont care though, if i get a nexus this week then thats all that matters. They might have just rushed them out going the quickest way possible. Or they haven't Out logo on box or anything yet. Im not a fan of the red though, looks cheap.

I actually like the simplicity of the white box/pink inside. In a perfect world it would have "Nexus" right on the front with the "X" in Google colors. That would be sweet. Man I'm a dork...critiquing the actual BOX the Nexus comes in. Oh man....

Are some people really complaining about the box? It's okay... you can stay home and I'll take your Nexus.

Though I think they could have done a better job with the boxing in the end I will see the box all of 2 mins as i open it take out phone, charger, and headphones, and then throw the box in the corner some where.

Lol. Some of us do need something to give the kids play with so we can enjoy the new phone in peace.

They could hand it to me in bubble wrap for all i care! Lol... the box is the least of my worries...
