well um the nexus, the hd2 may have alot of different OS's to boot to, but that snapdragon processor is not going to perform well in the future

+1 to Nexus S!!! Hands down on this one

Another nexus vote here...

The HD2 is good as a plaything, if you want to try out different OS, but it doesn't match the function and usability of Nexus S.
The battery life is horrible, if you intend to use a HD2 at all then you'd better be resigned to spare or extended batteries. The processor isn't too bad, but still won't match the NS
All in all, it depends on your personal preference, whether you'd rather functionality or simply options.

I had a Hero and I bought a HD2 last summer and put android on it. The HD2 really lowered my respect for HTC. The devices screen was awful - it was really washed out compared to my Hero. Also, the digitizer was not accurate even after calibration within android. You could also see the digitizer touch sensors under the screen in normal daylight. The touch screen would also miss presses, like one press in ten wouldn't be registered by the device - extremely annoying when you are txting. Luckily I kept my Hero and got shut of the HD2, but it left me disappointed.
Anyway I saw the Nexus S deal over on hotukdeals and thought I'd give it a shot as £200 was the max I wanted to spend. Anyway I can safely say that I am a Sammy man from now on. The phone has really exceeded my expectations, especially running ICS.
It's a shame as I always had a soft spot for HTC with the Hero being my first smartphone. But it's sad to say that the nexus one/desire was probably the last great phone HTC have made for the Uk market.
Cheers.

Help deciding guys

Right so I am having a dilema I really hate posts like this but iv got £250 to burn on a new tablet do I get a Xoom or Nexus 7 please don't flame me

Money to burn, that's a terrible dilemma to have. Anyways since you're in the nexus 7 forum, I going to have to suggest getting a nexus 7. No bias here!

Isn't the Xoom like 1-2 years old? Anyway, I wouldn't consider the Xoom. Too big, too heavy, too old. Go with the N7, but buy it from a brick and mortar store so you don't have to post the "my negative experiences with buying mail order" since we have about 5000 of those threads already.

I would definitely go with the Nexus 7. It's a much newer and faster device, although like Getbuzzin said, you are in the N7 forums so that's what you're going to hear around these parts. =)

Nobody is gonna say Xoom in this place. N7 is the way to go.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Why would you want a big clunky and old device like the Xoom?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Buy them both and play with FOR 10 days . on day 10 look across the room on the table . The tablet laying there and not next to you is the one to SEND BACK..
Simple easy solution.. But then again i have way more computers in Our home then people.. I so hate returning tech gadgets .. whooweeeeeee

[Poll] What's your next phone?

And when?
I apologize if I missed any.
For me, probably the S4..maybe by the end of the year.
EDIT: Probably will get the N4 soon.

My contract ends next year in march so the next nexus phone probably or the galaxy note 3

I will dismiss my Nexus S with broken screen on Christmas.. probably Galaxy S4 with Snapdragon 600 (for a good price) but I have to look at Nexus 5 before I decide (LG?? Motorola?? specs??)

So... I can't buy a new phone like s4, butterfly or one... I need to buy in second hand from Android forums (Android PT).
BTW. I need something bigger and with a better resolution (540x960 min.).
So I looking for a galaxy nexus or something with a bigger camera... but galaxy nexus still my favorite.
PS: we don't have the nexus4 here in Portugal! So.... galaxy nexus ; )

...mmmh... will be traumatic move from an Nexus (specifically) to an iPhone... how do you do a full-wipe?? I can't live without CWM hahahahaha
Sorry about that post just for laugh..

Probably Sony Xperia Z, the IP57 certification is a plus for me.

Got myself a Galaxy S3. Got a decent price for a decent phone. Sorry Nexus S, but you were just too slow for me.

I'm looking at the S4, possibly the S4 Mini (if it's announced). My contract is up in July so I have a bit of time. I would like to stay with a Nexus, so maybe I'll wait for the Nexus 5 announcement and hope that it's not boring.

Nexus 4 probably, as I'm only 16 years old and don't have a huge budget. Maybe a Nexus 5 if it will be as money-saving as the Nexus 4!
Me Gusta!

N4 is on the way

I have a iPod, too and I bought it before my Nexus S. So I know the advantages and disadvantages. Full-Wipe? iTunes can do that. It takes more time but it work
But I won't sell my Nexus S so I will stay in the Nexus S Section

Don't think you can go wrong with the N4: A competitor phone with great specs and even a greater price of $300. The demand for it speaks for itself.

I think I'm going to leave NS and buy smaller tablet like Galaxy Tab 2 7 or Nexus 7. I realised I read a lot of material on my phone but bigger phone is just out of the question.

If you have a Nexus 4 why upgrade so soon? Get the next Nexus device. For me though the Nexus 5 is amazing. I am coming from an original Galaxy S

Nothing wrong with that, the Nexus 5 is an excellent device. I wouldn't call them noobs because of that. It is faster than the Nexus 4 by a long shot especially with ART active.

Yeah the Xperia Z1, Note 3 and G2 all have 3000mah+ batteries. Google had to cut costs somewhere though.

Usually 1 year increments are not worth it.
Is the Nexus 5 an upgrade? Yes it has a better camera, better processor, etc. However, the Nexus 4 isn't a bad phone and is running the latest version of Android.

Thanks for your feedback. Dont care much about the camera. Nexus 4 is running buttery smooth on 4.4.2 unless if I was benchmark whore but I am not. Doesnt seems to be worth upgrading.

Yeah if you have a Nexus 4, don't upgrade. The Nexus 4 is better than the Moto X in my opinion.
