    Do you think they'll be one in the future? I was hoping Google would cut the price after the Nexus 6 launched but nope. Maybe some Black Friday or Boxing Day discounts or promos?

    I hope so. Have been using the Nexus 4 for two years now. My longest run with any smartphone. The Nexus 5 is not much of an upgrade though.

    It's nice. Although 5.5" screen feels massive. I think 5" is the perfect size. Where can I buy a OnePlus One for $399 in Canada?

    There are plenty of invites now but you have to pay for shipping and duties so I think the total ends up being around $450. For customs and duty, Canada Post ($50) charges more than DHL ($30) so if you order one, don't pick Standard Shipping. There's going to be some sort of Black Friday sale as well but not sure if it's on the phone or just accessories: http://oneplus.net/blackfriday/

    Hi Milquetoast. The Nexus 5 is only $199 outright from Wind's website. No tab and no contract. Just $199 and it's yours. Comes unlocked. Works for rogers, bell, telus etc with LTE. They are like opened box though. Or lightly used with no damage. Rumor has it that Wind will drop the price to $119 outright sometime this month. Read this on redflagdeals. I'll probably pick one or two up when it gets down to $119.

    I'll let you know when they have a similar deal again.

    I'll be looking out for this! My smartphones running on 3 years now and i don't think it'll last much longer :(

    I'm still using an iPhone 4. The lock button is busted and the home button only works 50% of the time.

    On a Koodo medium tab, Nexus 5 is $0.00.

    On a Koodo small tab, Nexus 5 is $200.

    Medium tab has $5/month charge until tab balance reaches zero
    Small tab has $0.00/month charge

    I still have another year before my wind tab is up. I would switch over to Koodo but I love my unlimited data. Data roaming on wind is also only 5ยข per MB.

    Koodo: Nexus 5 for $0 plus $100 gift card at Walmart. In store only.
    I'm with Fido and they had a similar deal at Costco but I missed out. Hopefully something comes along during Boxing Week.
