But we already have it with a keyboard but no gingerbread
http://www.google.com/nexus/#!/index

And it's seriously making me consider leaving Sprint already, in spite of the fact that I just signed with Sprint on Epic launch day. I'd take stock gingerbread with no keyboard over this broken GPS, no-froyo-having, bulky keyboard pos a thousand times over. Nexus S seriously has me jealous. Why can't we just have all the phones on all the carriers in the states? Damn you, stupid carriers.
cant wait for this
I was hoping it came to sprint

I would LOVE to have a Nexus S. I understand Google might have difficulty programming every network type but I still think it would be profitable for them to have it on all the networks. I think Android has finally hit the point where they have the power to tell the networks what they want, not the other way around.
It should be easy to port too. All of these phones are galaxy s class phones including the Nexus S. Touchwiz is not like HTC Sense which chews up some memory and performance
I have a Nexus One and I like it. I was about to order one on the 16th until I heard that there is 16GB internal memory but NO microSD slot!?
SD makes things easier, such as keeping ROMs and adding, say 20GB worth of music on a 32GB chip.
Being stuck with a 16GB and needing a cable for data transfer is giving me pause...

Kingston and Sandisk are my ultimate choices when it comes to memory cards. I've never had problems so far with those.

Same here, been using mine since day one of the note 2 release.
No problems here, combined with directorybind I have all the space I need
So... should I or should I not buy a 64GB memory card?
Don't really wanna waste $80 on a Class 10 64GB if it'll just die. It's Sandisk btw.

you can buy, i am using this Sd and it is awesome...
$43 for amazon for me
The manual states that 64gb is supported, so it shouldn't be surprising really that it works.
The internal chip is a bi faster writing at about 17mb/sec whereas the Sandisk writes at about 10. Plenty for media storage
Im using mine (sandisk ultra 64g uhsi cl 10) for about 3 days now and its awesome.. fast..i recommend it m8. It was 50 euros for me from ebay

Please take note that sandisk has a lot of imitation cards out there. Some of the imitation looks more like original than the original in terms of packaging quality.
I anyways buy from shops only and verify its original by going to their website on the spot and checking out the look out signs for fake.
Fyi to date I found 3 shops selling imitation cards at original cards price.

I have a 32 GB sandisk Ultra HC1 and have tried everything but keeps unmounting (gets message that says - sd card removed unexpectedly). Sucks so bad and is major pain in the ass, I have also ran a script to use sd card for internal memory but once it goes to sleep i have to resart phone to access it.
Supposedly 50gig free cloud storage
http://m.androidcentral.com/lg-nexus-4-qualifies-50gb-free-boxnet-cloud-storage
For those of us coming from gs3 our drop box accounts are still good and still have 50gig.
I am continuing to find ways from our forum and other places to add possible fixes. Will update this as I find more ways or you guys tell me other ways. so I am hoping that this will become a Information thread and positive ways to overcome the storage restraints most have.
I personally am friends with a engineer who is trying to incorporate the sd card adapter trick into a case but the five volt energy that is needed to run the card is becoming a problem. As we are trying to keep case small and cost effective. My question to you is if we succeed who would be interested in having one?

Hey guys ive just discovered nexus 4 and i think its an amazing device .. But im worried about the low price ... Is something wrong or something? :S
Please can someone who has a nexus 4 tell me everything and say how awesome this device is
Thanks
Price is low because you are buying the phone straight from Google and they are interested in you using their software rather than making money off the device like other companies. It's an amazing device on par with other flagship's.

To me, the ONLY negative is the lack of SD card slot. So you are only limited to 16gb of storage, and that's not the entire amount available to you. And coming from a device with 64gb storage it was a hard pill to swallow lol. I figured I needed a "diet" of apps and data anyways. :laugh:
I absolutely love the phone and amount of love the devs have had developing for it thus far. I also still have my old Nexus one in storage .

If you want a lot of storage on hand and not in the cloud this phone is not for you. You can use thumb drives but unlike other devices you will need a power source and a y-OTG cable. As stated before the low price is simply to get you to use Google software and in my opinion the limited storage is a not so subtle push to get you to use Drive. This is my first phone with an embedded battery and it's surpassed my expectations. I get over 24 hours with minimal usage and 8 hours with what for me is heavy usage, this includes streaming music for 2 hours for my commute and my data is always on. Like the previous poster said, this is a great device. To optimize battery life, root and buy SetCPU.

Like the past repliers, low price is there because google is focused on the software, rather than making a lot of money off of their phones. It's a really great device, and I plan on using for a very long time (unless I get a N5 when it comes out, of course.) It's well worth the cost if you can get one. Even the it isn't the best phone out right now specs wise, it's still one of the best overall. It may not have the best amount of memory, but I easily overlook that with dropbox and box.

I was afraid about the low price as well but Google doesnt even want to make money on Nexus. They just want you to use their software and develop maybe!
So, just open your wallet and purchase one Nexus or two maybe! Then unlock it and flash custom ROMs and kernels!
So I finally made a decision on which tablet that I want but when I called BestBuy to see if they have any in stock I was told that they do have some but it was a limited stock......and.... that they are being discontinued so they will not be getting any more in...
This sucks.... Now I am back on the hunt of which tablet to get.

4.4.2 is available for it and that is probably as far as most 2013 tablets will get. If your really worried about out dated, buy a nexus.

The sd card is useless in kit Kat ..you are not allowed to write to external storage such as sd cards in kit Kat 4.4.2 So you should buy a tablet with 32gb or 64gb of internal storage without option for external storage. But LG G Pad 8.3 is also good tablet.

G Pad may not accepts future firmware updates from LG if you have currently root on your G Pad. That's why I am afraid to root my device.

You do realize that there has only been one firmware update in its history? Furthermore, even if there is one, you can be certain a version with root and recovery will appear here in 24 hours that can be flashed. I am running stock and use a flashable version.
I received the kitkat update yesterday. After reading about the sd card issue, I tried saving a pic to my 64g sd card and had no problems. I even deleted a pic from the card. This is a nice tablet snd I hsve had several android tablets. Go buy and enjoy. ?

I ended up getting it for $229.99 at BestBuy (They priced matched NewEggs sale)
That being said, I am really impressed with everything.... the screen is great (yes I did look at the Galaxy 8.4 Pro but dam the price) and it is really smooth!!!!
BTW..... I was going with the White but changed my mind and got the Black and love the color

So, to summarize responses to your posts:
1. SD Cards on Kitkat will work with a simple fix.
2. Rooting does not "break things". It's really kind of the normal way to use an Android device.
3. As far as not being able to get OTA updates after rooting, that's somewhat correct, but the better way to update is not with OTA but with a prepared flashible file that comes with root.
4. Rooting is as easy as it can be. Very simple and more or less idiot-proof.

That is an accurate summary. I'll just add that for root+recovery the method that gave me no headaches was:
JB (4.2.2) - Dalingrin and then TWRP 2.6.3.2 (if you have JB, I strongly recommend doing this before going to KK, even if you plan to use stock)
KitKat (4.4.2) - IOroot 2.5 then TWRP 2.7 (a special build for KK)

When did you buy it? All stores say out of stock, including Fort Worth aka your area.
