#2I'm wondering if the launch will still entail the problems that encountered before. Can't handle the traffic, not much stock, problems with shipping, etc. It is because I'm looking forward to get one, but I'll be staying here in SF till Nov. 8. So if the launch still has those problems, I might not manage to get a Nexus 5.

I think that probably it will get out of stock quickly. It's a marketing move that gets reported by major news sites, and raises interest among non-tech people. If everything goes smoothly, probably it will get less coverage.

Yes, I'm afraid that it's there marketing strategy. I think it works for Nexus 4 and gain them massive attention with the people. I'm just hoping that they will not do it again because there are more people now that are aware with the Nexus line and waiting. I know some people that are waiting for Nexus 5 but have a deadline for themselves. And if they don't get Nexus 5 immediately, they will just buy a different phone. Looks like a miss customer for Nexus.

#6The Nexus 5 has the opportunity to pull a lot of disenchanted iPhone users to Android. What would it take for you to make the switch?

Who are these disenchanted iPhone users? I'm not trying to bait you, I'm genuinely curious who you think will switch. iPhone users are generally considered to have the highest satisfaction of any mobile phone users.

I'm switching to try something new, on a device well suited for no contract plans. I bet Nexus will steal more customers from Samsung than Apple though

I have seen my share of longtime iPhone owners complain loudly about iOS7. I can imagine a few of them switching when the opportunity arrives. Also, some carriers are not "subsidizing" handsets anymore; for upfront payment the low price and fantastic value of Nexus hardware has a huge edge over the iPhone 5C.

Me.
Recently began work on a mobile project where we deal with a few recent Android phones and tablets. I already bought myself a Nexus 7 and it's fucking awesome. I can't wait to drop the iPhone and get the Nexus 5.
Both have their merits but in the end it's the screens size to me. Make the iPhone thinner, give it a killer screen, and I'll go back but until then, Android.
