Played with my phone for the past day and I love it so far. Vibrate motor is weak as others have pointed out. SMS integration into Hangouts isn't great, you have separate conversations for each type of method you use to message someone. Finding how to send an SMS message for the first time in Hangouts isn't that intuitive either. Hopefully they can fix this. I found the Wifi signal reception to be way better than my GNex, in places where my Gnex would struggle I can still get fast wifi.

Maybe i'll just have to get used to swiping down though and accessing the apps from there.
WHAT REALLY BUGS ME SO FAR:
- the volume is WAY too low across the board, and the vibrate motor within the phone is WAY too low/ineffective to be useful.

I just skip not having notification badges by installing a widget called Dashclock. Dashclock is a lockscreen widget replacement that allows you to get notified on the lockscreen about what notifications you have or you can just do the dropdown from the notification list.
Alternative is you can and customize your notification LED with an app like lightflow. I have each app I care about coded to a different colour so I don't have to even turn on my screen to know what kind of message I've received.
