Fewer features? It's better than the Nexus 4 in pretty much every aspect tbh. I'm very tempted to sell my Nexus 4 and upgrade to the Nexus S4 so I can own the latest Nexus device :laugh:

It wont carry the nexus name, youre lucky if you get a "GOOGLE" tag on the back of the device
I would, just because I'll have an SD card slot.

You obviously are clinging to "my phone is best nuh-uh no way any phone could be better" syndrome atm
- LTE
- Removable battery
- MicroSD storage
- Faster processor
- Better camera
- Bigger screen
- SAMOLED (if you prefer over LCD)
- Hardware buttons (if you prefer this versus software buttons taking up screen space)
Just because they said the s4 would get updates from Google doesn't mean ****. Nexus will still get updates first

Im glad that samsung will sell pure android device(s) but I do not think that they will update the phone because for them Its better if you buy the new one instead of update yours. Maybe one version update and then stop, just for customers cant say that they have lied.

At this point you don't have any real information... simply trying to spread misinformation so you can still have that "my nexus 4 is the best phone ever" feeling.
If it were double the specs I could see double the price of the N4. But its not even close so as far as I'm concerned its a rip off.

You have to remember that the Nexus 4 is massively subsidised by Google. Without it the Nexus 4 would probably retail for $500+.
Get the s4 with contract with att for 199 root the s4 install cyanogen mod BAM Google experience phone... Seriously though developers will make updates for the s4 easier now with the Google s4. That being said, you save more money comparing 649 for 16gb pure Google vs 199 contract s4 root with "pure" google experience

I still have an upgrate at ATT available tho. But i'll likely keep it until the end of year, sell whatever I can get (most likely an Iphone) and then buy the newest "NEXUS" device.

I saw the Nexus Two being an HTC Device, with things like;
4 to 4.3 Inch Super AMOLED Display(Or possibly even Retina?)
1Ghz Dual Core Processor
16GB ROM
1GB RAM
3-5MP Front Facing Camera
5-8MP Back Camera
I recall Google stating that the Nexus One was a phone to revolutionize devices. Thats what it did, when the Nexus One launched it had the largest screen, and the fastest processor in any phone to that date. Where is that with the Nexus Two?!
They needed a story, even if the facts are incorrect.
That cant be the Nexus Two.
I'd rather have a MyTouch 4G.

My thoughts exactly. After one day with an N1, I realized just how nice life was away from any Samsung POSI. 6 months later, not one SINGLE complaint. This thing is perfect, and could only improve with next year's technology (screensize/processer etc) today. A Galaxy S model phone, which was available in July would a sick joke.
Desire HD+Duel Processor+Front Camera=Perfect. But I still like the trackball.
Didn't engadget just say that that is a gizmodo mock up?
IMO, this article is sooo full of crap.
good to hear Sammy is working on the Nexus Two. Couple great hardware with software. Damn it's going to blow everything away!

There I fixed it for you
How can samsung call the piece of **** a nexus cause doesnt htc own the nexus name? They made the nexus one. I hope to God this isnt true. I will never own a samsung again
not going to argue with samsung using the best hardware but damn do they love apple's designs or something.
I can't stand that they make the design look like an iphone and touchwiz makes it more like an iphone.
if nexus two looks anything like this, even if it is vanilla android, i'm saving my money for a better looking vanilla android phone.
Can't wait for Nexus Three. lol
I doubt this is real, anyway--a Nexus Two should be, just as the N1 was, ahead of the herd. Certainly not a refresh of an existing model. No way.
Dual-core, Tegra 2 chip, brushed metal unibody, or get the **** out.
So I'm seriously considering jumping T-Mobile to get on Verizon before July 7.
Tiered plans + at&t merger are persuading me.
BUT I love my Nexus s . Is there a great android device on Verizon that would push this decision over the edge?
Is the switch to Verizon worth it to avoid tiered plans?

So, here we all are. Looking for the next big slider phone to move to. The Photon comes along and while some specs are great, overall most people hate the fact that the SIM is locked and that the battery is not removable. Some of us, maybe all, would probably settle for it, because the idea is that another slider will not come for a long period of time. HOWEVER, I just unearthed this article and honestly, I would recommend giving it a month before we all jump ship and buy into the Photon, if that is your plan at least.
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/05/01/google-patent-application-hints-at-nexus-slider/
Although this is NOT a confirmation, it is still in the realm of possibility. It is worth waiting for, before we lock ourselves onto the Photon for 2 years.
Any thoughts/comments/info?
There is some truth to Google bringing out a Nexus slider soon. Google hired the G1 designer duo, they also came up with the design for the Xbox360.
NICE!!!!!! I just sprouted a tremendous woody!!!!
Highly doubtful. I wouldn't hold my breathe. The only logical choice right now for keyboard lovers is the photon. Especially since Motorola released something similar to HTCdev to unlock the boot loader.

this is exactly why I am hesitant to buy the Q... but there truly is NO evidence of a slider nexus coming, and it could be a loooonng wait for another qwerty on Sprint considering we are getting 3 of them
I guess I am use to by now having a on screen keyboard.
I do miss the trackball of the G1 that was always nice to have.
Even when I had a physical keyboard I rarely used it.

My thinking on the Q, is will there be development, more to the point, will it get picked up by CM
A Nexus device will get dev support almost by default.
But the Epic taught me to be careful about my choice in phones, as lack of great development can drop a phone from awesome, to dam, wish I could get that mod.
Those who got the Epic on release day, waited for CM acceptance on the Epic, will understand why I'm a bit gun shy about one-off devices

That's it. I'm waiting. The PhotonQ is appealing to me, but I will wait to see if this pans out before I jump.
Now, should we start a pool on how long it will take Kenny to close this thread?

Its all about they keyboard layout. It doesn't match up with something that would create ease of use. This looks like a prototype for a Phablet and or Tablet.
I am considering buying a nexus 7 16gb, is it worth the 314 AUD price tag? What do you guys think from your experiences? Thanks
Xxx oops! accidentally beamed from my awesome NEXUS S! xxX
Yes ! It is an amazing tablet and the first one born with Android Jelly Bean 4.1. It has a really powerful processor (NVidia Tegra 3 Quad Core (x4) 1.3GHz.). The size is really awesome, you can hold it fine with one hand. It is really smooth and fast. Worth to buy
It's absolutely worth it, get it right now. This device really is great, you've waited too long already.

I love my Nexus 7. I bought it even knowing that a ipad mini is rumored to come out next month.
If you love your Nexus S's Android OS, the Nexus 7 will not disappoint.
You really cannot go wrong with the price. I mean 250$ is dirt cheap. Especially for a Tegra 3 and 1GB of RAM. Really enjoying mine so far and I have an iPhone 4S and new iPad as well. Android has a special place in my heart for tinkering and this tablet is totally fulfilling that niche .

Totally worth it, I have a feeling development has only just started I have never owned a nexus device previous to this
It has replaced my phone for everything but calls and texts, other than when I don't have it of course
I think the size is perfect as the ipad IMO is too big and heavy, 7 inch is perfect size
I bought mine on release weekend at jbhifi for $317, best choice
Buy it from a store so if you have problems, you can take it back like I did.

416mhz (but a lot of custom kernels overclock to 520)
OP: we can't really answer that (at least, not without information on your preferences). You should youtube the n7 in action and see if it seems to fit your needs.
The nexus 7 is very worth it. Your might have to return it a couple times if it has the defects like screen lift, light bleed, etc.
I doubt the iPad mini will be around 300 dollars, as the ipod touch costs 300 and is less than half the size.
If i were you, I would buy it!
I bought one yesterday and it's well worth it. Mine was built in August and doesn't seem to have any screen or multi-touch problems that others do.
Tapatalk made me send this.
I've had mine for a while and even with a little screen lift on the left hand side, I'd buy it all over again.
If you have the option, purchase an extended warranty that covers screen damage. That extra insurrance never hurt.
I'd buy that for any tab I'd purchase.
Buy it...you won't regret it. Your significant other may though. I think my girl is going to break mine if I don't put it down. Lolzzz

My wife is eligible for an upgrade from T Mobile and their customer loyalty department decided
to give me the "web-only" new customer deal on any phone for her. (7 year loyal customer)
I'm either getting her the Nexus 4 - $99 with a $50 rebate or the GS3 - $199 with a $100 rebate.
A few questions about the Nexus 4
1. My wife doesn't want it rooted or modded. Is the display tolerable without rooting and using a color setting app?
2. Why is the battery glued in?
3. I read the T Mobile Nexus 4 has very little bloatware. Is that accurate?
4. If I get my wife the Nexus 4, will she love me forever? (don't bother answering this question, nothing is forever).
A 2 CT diamond necklace would do that but nexus 4 after 4.2.2 is phenomenal
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
She will love you forever, the N4 is a way better phone than the S3, and cheaper too. It's also always bang upto date.
She will probably leave you when she gets the N5 from another guy
Display is fine
Likely glued down to prevent vibrations and not need other hardware to secure it
Tmo N4 is identical to Play Store N4
The N4 is better than the GS3 so at least the N4 gives you a better shot at getting it right.
I gave my wife an N4 for Christmas, unrooted and unmodded. She loves it, and thanks me for saving her from her old phone all the time.

1. Doesn't need calibrating, people just like hacking stuff.
2. Probably to prevent shaking loose over time due to the terminals being screwed down.
3. Just buy from the Play Store. Little = No bloatware
4. Only until the next gadget comes along

Ahh once they are hooked on the iSphere its hard to get them off. Good brains seem to turn to complete putty unfortunately.
I demonstrated how the N4 beats the iPhone 5 in pretty much every way to a friend (quite a clever one) and he turned round and said "yeah, but you don't get iTunes with a Nexus 4" *facepalm*.

A few questions about the Nexus 4
1. My wife doesn't want it rooted or modded. Is the display tolerable without rooting and using a color setting app?
2. Why is the battery glued in?
3. I read the T Mobile Nexus 4 has very little bloatware. Is that accurate?
4. If I get my wife the Nexus 4, will she love me forever? (don't bother answering this question, nothing is forever).

1. The display is tolerable without tweaking it.
2. The battery is glued it because LG and Google are nuts. By doing this, it reduces the cost of the device somehow.
3. T-Mobile Nexus does not have any bloatware in fact. In fully stock android jellybean OS.
4. Um okay. Lol
The Nexus 4 is known to have a short battery life on stock. But after rooting it and installing a custom kernel, it can significantly make your battery last throughout the day or even longer.

Ahh once they are hooked on the iSphere its hard to get them off. Good brains seem to turn to complete putty unfortunately.
I demonstrated how the N4 beats the iPhone 5 in pretty much every way to a friend (quite a clever one) and he turned round and said "yeah, but you don't get iTunes with a Nexus 4" *facepalm*.
I sighed and responded "yeah, i guess you're right"
Sometimes it's just not worth the hassle.

An LG Optimus T (p509) I imagine it'll be like going from driving a Toyota Camry to a Lamborghini Aventador.
Thank you all very much for the replies. I feel very assured that the Nexus 4 is the winner. :good:
