Hmm looking at my recent statements, I'm always between like 150 and 375 minutes, so even with the 10c per minute extra, I'd never be looking at more than $60/month at worst. I'm assuming nights and weekends still don't count as minutes on this plan?
Never assume. Always read the contract language carefully.

#232I just ordered one, but I'm currently on Verizon. What does everyone think is the best way to go in terms of non-contract carriers for the N5? Heard some good things about Straight Talk, but also read that their customer service is horrible.
Re: Nexus 5
#233Nearly ordered one. Last minute I though "Is this phone going to anything my nexus 4 can't?" And the answer was nope for me
What's it got that the Nexus 4 doesn't have? I'm pretty happy with my 4, which I just got a few months ago. I suppose I'll wait for the 6. After that they're going to have to think of a new name because there's already a Nexus 7...

The Nexus 4 camera is the worst camera to ever grace the Nexus line.
Re: Nexus 5
#235So does anyone know what US carriers this will work on? I wish they would just say it somewhere.
It's LTE, so any carrier with LTE that lets you use unlocked phones, which I believe is AT&T, TMobile, and Sprint, but not Verizon.

If you're still in the U.S., just order it. I bought my old nexus here and it works just fine in Europe and South America. Just need to pop out the SIM card. If it works on t-mobile, it basically works anywhere.
Oh, don't worry -- I ordered it... It just won't work on Telecom New Zealand's new 4G network without support for LTE bands 3 and 7. This support is missing from the North American version. It will work just fine on their 3G service, but I'd like to get one with LTE support. Funny story, I waited on hold for a little over an hour. Sounds like the guy can swap it out but then their phone system hung up on me. Here's h…

#238As an African/Nigerian I am not even allowed to see what it looks like. Talk less of trying to make a purchase [1]. Last Night, I had to lie that I am in the US so I would be allowed to by Remote by 37Signals on my kindle. Quite ridiculous and annoying. http://imgur.com/eS8agor
It's not just Nigeria. And I agree. The way Google does this with an error page for non serviced locations feels really off. It's not how the web is supposed to work. Not shipping to other countries is bad enough. This is rude. Google should just put these things on Amazon.

T-Mobile has non-contract plans. http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/prepaid-plans Scroll alllll the way down to the bottom, look for the $30/month plans. They include 5 GB of data per month at 4G speeds, after that you're throttled. I've never come anywhere near to hitting that limit, so I don't know what the throttle is. You can order a SIM card online, or pick one up in a store. http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/p…
What is a device activated on t-mobile.com? And how do you select it?

Damn, never Verizon. Wish I locked into unlimited data on AT&T instead of Verizon.
