It would be so cool if the the phone came with the view case from the Asus website (wishful thinking)

I ordered a red Sparin case off Amazon (AC won't let me link yet). I'll get it tomorrow, but I won't know how it'll fit, etc. until I get my phone obviously. Someone on XDA linked an interesting case sold on Aliexpress called Nillkin Nature. Clear plastic, but looks pretty nice.

I hope ASUS sends them out this week. My anticipation is through the roof. Watching all of these videos on YouTube isn't helping curb the excitement. I really like the look of ZenUI and I want to play around with it ASAP.

I hope it's kinda killing me since I only got this optimus G ........so oh and I just bought a clear soft case I hope it holds over until better cases show up

If mine doesn't come this week I don't get it until I get home on May 2nd

I'm getting really stoked! I sent my little bro my HTC Desire Eye since his phone was acting up, so I'm using the Fire Phone. There are things to like about this phone, but dang, I miss my google apps. I can't wait for this phone.

 

[RichieHD]

The screen protectors that I ordered just came in the mail today! We are inching closer to having that phone in our hands.

 

[kissdafloor]

Just got an email so apparently their sending it out by the end of April within 9 days I'm guessing the hold up was due to the prep for the US launch. ...so wait is almost over!!!

*sigh*
I was hoping for a miracle, but it looks like we're waiting a bit more. Interesting what the issue is. Not sure I can mention it here..

 

[kissdafloor]

It might still be still this week we are only on tuesday

Let's hope. I don't know how much longer my M7 is going to hold up. This phone is the first device that I've kept for two years without wanting to upgrade. If it didn't have issues with the camera taking purple photos and a semi-broken Sim tray, I'd keep it forever.

 

[kissdafloor]

its a rumor that asus is holding an event on the 28th in the us....(the same day as g4 announcement crazy i know) so if that is true then i would look for it next week but asus could ship it at any time (hopefully overnight or 2 day) it sucks that ur m7 is not holding up .....but nether is my optimus G lol

Just a little longer guys, it may seem and feel very far but it's practically the home stretch for most of the waiting for the device globally!

I'm consoling myself with the idea that the language used in the last update made me suspect that the US devices might be getting 5.1 out of the box..

 

[kissdafloor]

5.1 would be dope I'm running it on my optimus g at this point hype is contained until I get it in my hands .....I wonder if they will let us choose the color?

What did it say?

 

[kissdafloor]

Basically Google is in the process of approving a product image and that's the reason for the hold up

Woot! I hope that rolls to the TW versions as well.

I suspect that if they were going to let us choose the color we'd have already been asked. I'd love the red one, but I'm sure we'll get something more generic like Black.

Yea, my thought is basically, "Why would google need to approve an image for a product that's been shipping for months?" 5.1 would make a lot of sense and would probably fix some the battery issues reported by a few folks.
