I was just thinking of doing this. Thanks for this thread I'll submit mine when my tablet arrives
Hate to be that guy but... Bump to first page.
Very eager to see more people fill I this survey.
Sweet,What a great idea!!! It looks like the best place so far was the PlayStore. Thanks for doing this

Perhaps you should add whether the model was the 8GB or 16GB to see if they're are quality control differences.
Good idea for trending and seeing what "really is going on in userland". I'm filling out, but will be returning mine for a hopeful replacement due to a dead pixel and some slight screen flashing.
Done....hope my input help.

Thanks for creating this! I'll be sure to update when I receive my tablet.
Just got mine in Portugal (courtesy of Ebuyer UK, Borderlinx + DHL).
It's flawless, really. I have no screen issues whatsoever (no bezel separation or raised display, dead pixels and leakages of any kind). I've always been lucky with my gadgets.
16GB model
EDIT: Survey filled

Same here, ebuyer UK ->forward2me in Holland. No complaints, just very happy.
Nice thread! Where do you post the results?
Problem on a thread like this - the ones with problems are many times more likely to see this thread and submit. Thus making it hard to get an accurate statistical probability for each problem.
May want to include a spot for Serial Numbers to see if it was a bad batch or if it is QC...

True, the stats will be a little misleading. Not to mention the other 90% (that's a stab in the dark) who don't post on this site at all. Still think its a great idea though.

Nice find!
I'll check this out in a bit.
There's already a thread for reviews which can be found here.
''Absolute power corrupts absolutely, but absolute powerlessness does the same''
It's an OK review but the dude just keeps saying how much he loves everything, it's starting to annoy me.
I stopped watching when the reviewer ask why did Google put quad-core in N4 when they only put dual-core A15 in N10.
This guy is an idiot.
Horrible video.
Not xda worthy in my honest opinion

so because he didnt know that much about android means its a bad unboxing? it was his first time using 4.2..
i got annoyed of the tmobile employee though.

First Batch of Nexus 4 a trial run by Google?

Many people have been toying with the idea that, the Nexus 4, being a Nexus device, could be riddled with bugs and glitches at the time of release, and thus have only placed a small amount of stock for sale so those issues only stay among a small amount of people.
The guys at Google, instead of testing for hours on end, let the public do so, and then check up on sites, like this one, for issues people have with the phone and thus fix it up. This could explain why the Bumpers are already stocked, but the phones themselves are looking to be released Black Friday, several days after, and this time, with a whole lot more stock as they have to take into account the back orders, as well poor guys like me who missed out.
What are your thoughts on this?
Wouldn't that be unfair to the people who managed to buy it out first? I mean they are essentially paying the same amount for a phone that is supposed to have the kinks sorted out already, not pay to have a phone in beta testing. But I really hope this is the case, and Google not only sorts out these issues but also offers compensation to the early adopters as to make everyone happy and fair!
Tin Foil Hat time for you i think...
Where did you see stocked bumpers?

It's sold out in the US Google Play store...
If that's true then we'll be seeing an update from Google shortly after the second batch go out?
Negative, the nexus one was the trial run.

Doubtful. I just don't think Google anticipated it being quite so popular. Worst of all, they allowed you to purchase up to 5 in one hit, which more then a handful of people did. 1-2 max on launch and up to a week or two after in my opinion. This would have ensured 'a lot' more people actually got a phone and it would have stopped eBay being flooded with N4's by people looking to make a quick buck.
Every nexus phone is trails . We get it test it Google updates other OEM make there phones with the new version. As far are you tin foil hat about a multi billion dollar company not testing I doubt that

How could the 4th generation of anything be a test run?
Tinfoil Hattery abounds in the General forum. It's a conspiracy I tells ya!

We, the public, being beta testers for Google products? Pffft!

[SpoilerAlert] Do you think Dexter should have ended the way it did?

So, many of you geeks out there must be following Dexter T.V. show. So what do you think about the ending? I think it was a perfect end. Put your thoughts to words here!

1) It's a general notion.
2) I'll let the mods decide that.
3) Dunno.
4) Don't you watch Dexter?
They could have Mad Dexter happy with Hannah And Harrison. Doesn't need to be alone.

I wasn't expecting a happy ending - that would have been insulting.
But, it should have been done better. It's like we've spent the last 7 years getting to know someone inside out, and then they change in the last 5 minutes of the show into something completely different. Is anyone else reminded of Anakin's 5 minute journey to The Dark Side? It was just badly portrayed.
Apparently though, the last series was meant to span over at least 2, which is where the rumours about it having another series to go came from. They did cram in too much story and that spoilt it.
The last series was rubbish for me. It pretty much killed my appreciation for what had come before.

Maybe they crammed too much story that's why people were expecting a somewhat different ending. I feel that the reason why he succumbed into seclusion was because of his very nature. We know Dexter as the person who is known for taking decisions no one could.
But I agree to the point that they did cram too much story in last season. Though it's disappointing to see him like that but he could not have done anything else accounting to his very character.
