We all knew it was coming... and today turned out to be the day. The Nexus 5 is now available in 'bright red' in the Google Play devices store. The new edition is available at the same price points as the black and white versions, and at the moment they're shipping out in 1-2 business days.

My question is... WHO'S GETTING ONE?

I broke down and bought one for the wife... with a black LG case.................. :(

Wish they put out a red flip case at the same time.

I got an email from Google with a "Buy Now" button in it, haha! Too bad I can't justify splurging, but I'd prefer a light violet anyway. :D

It says will leave warehouse on 2/6 which is kind of lame but maybe it's just an "under promise, over deliver" kind of thing. I'm using a 5s so I'm not in bad shape I just love the color and like stock Android and can't wait to try out Kit Kat. Too bad it won't come with a candy bar, then I'd be in heaven.

I bought a nexus 5 in black when it released loved the phone, then i sold it when the rumors of the red one came out and now i am stuck with my nexus 4. I don't like the nexus 4 as much as the nexus 5, i like how the 5 fits in my hand better then the nexus 4. I cant wait till it comes i payed extra for 1 day shipping because i cant stand my nexus 4.

I really like the look of the red. But it is only worth it if you are going naked. If you are going to put a case on it but like the red color, then just get the red case for the black or white Nexus.

Definitely going naked with it to show it off. I've actually been surprised to see quite a few N5s out in the wild recently. My shipping notification came in early this morning and says it'll be here today. Tech life is good 👍
