Nexus 5 to launch on Sprint November 8th priced at $150 on contract; T-Mobile also will get the device

Now that the Nexus 5 is official, it is time to start checking out the places where you might make the actual purchase. Sprint will be launching the handset on November 8th at a price of $150 on contract for the 16GB variant. Pre-orders begin tomorrow. A software update down the road will make the Nexus 5 compatible with the tri-band LTE connectivity of Sprint Spark.

T-Mobile has also announced that it will be carrying the Nexus 5 at "an affordable price". The nation's fourth largest carrier wouldn't give a precise launch date and would only confirm that the phone will be available in the coming weeks. The Nexus 5 will also be available for those signed up to the carrier's early upgrade program, T-Mobile JUMP!

As we've already told you this afternoon, don't look for the Nexus 5 on Verizon, because it won't be coming to Big Red.
