It's not the new version. I talked with Google on Friday and I got the replacement today.

Speaker holes are the same and I still have a loose power button, even if it is slightly less wiggly.

It also shipped with 4.4...i was surprised it didn't already have 4.4.2.

311 is the new batch of devices with the fixes. Not sure about 312.

Did you get the 16gb or the 32gb model?
 
I have been keeping track of the nexus 5 and which models have been in stock. The 32Gb got a restock like a week or 2 ago and i think that was still the older version because they still probably had some in the warehouse. The 16gb never has reached the "in stock" stage like the 32Gb did so i think until the current 32gb models sells out you wont get the new model.
 
I got mine yesterday. It's the newer version & it's a 312. Honestly I think its the luck of the draw whether you get one or not
 
Can you please telo me where can I see if the phone is a 311 or 312?
Thank you.

It's the serial number.

Hmm, I thought 311 was the newer model. Guess not, which means 312 is the one?

310, 311, or 312 do not necessarily indicate an updated build, the last two digits indicate the month of manufacture. That said I would expect most of not all 312's to be the newer build.

odd. i did this 2 weeks ago and i got the newer one... i think, i never checked the serial # but my buttons are way better than before
 
What part of the serial number are you using because I don't see any of those numbers at all in my serial number

i just checked mine and it starts with 0302. that must be a super old batch even though mine is only a week old (to me) i got it on Amazon when they had the on contract with Sprint deal for $30.
 
My serial number for my launch day Nexus 5 32gb black starts with 031b. Any idea what that means?
