The gyroscope won't do anything for speed.
Stick with your Nexus S, there is no need to change your phone every 2 months.
Better suggestion, learn some damn grammar and punctuation. Reading posts like that makes me want to punch something.

Were you strapped into a moving gyroscope while typing that?
1. A gyroscope does absolutely nothing "for speeds"
2. All that new 3d future gaming you're going to be doing on your phone that doesn't come equipped with a 3d capable screen in the first place? Sure, that gyroscope will be holding you back from that...
Sounds like someone was trying to make it sound like their nexus s is still top dog on the phone market. Sorry, it may have gingerbread, but its not anymore.
The lack of punctuation makes my eyes burn.
Topics with titles that don't cover it make me waste my time replying to it.

Doesn't your Nexus S keyboard have any punctuation keys?
Buy a gaming system if you want games, games on cell phones these days are a bit ridiculous. Anything I am going to spend more than 10 minutes playing gets its own device, really how many types of games can you play well with only a touchscreen and gyro for input?
^Exactly.

None of the benchmark apps are multi-thread.

Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
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.

Guess it depends on how long you want to wait for the x phone. Its gonna be awhile.

One exists, the other is a rumor.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
It was more of a rumor than an announcement, and i wouldn't expect it to come out any time soon.
Like I'll tell anyone, if you keep on waiting for the next big thing, you'll wait forever.
The answer is simple by answering this question. Does the desire for the nexus 4 outweigh the usefulness of your current phone?
For me, it was a no-brainer. I was not happy with my vivid stock, I did not care for the bugginess (<--- is that even a word?) of the available Roms, but loved aosp.
If you feel you'll be happy with your current phone, then wait until a phone comes out that you must have.
The phone probably won't be out till summer most likely. Then the next nexus will be around the corner. Great hardware or not I don't know if I'd even get one if it doesn't have direct from Google software updates. Don't care if its a different branch than the nexus line... It has to be straight from Google or its no better or worse than the galaxy line from Samsung or the one series from HTC.

and you will say, dudes, I been waiting 3 years and you raise the price for this and add some gigs ?

Thats what im thinking. Ive been babying my G2 so its lasted me a lot longer than others ( the whole loose hinge shenanigans). My phone is still serving its purpose but at the same time i know it wont last that much longer. N4 seems like an awesome device with a few quirks. For those that have the N4 can you tell me what you both like AND dislike about the phone. Want to start weighing the pros and cons.

I love absolutely everything about the phone. Only thing I don't like is the limit on memory (I have the 16GB). It'st he first phone I've owned that has yet to experience any lag or slowdown whatsoever.
I would personally go for Nexus 4 because
1. The x phone is just a rumor and hasn't even been announced
2. If it is going to be sold by Motorola who makes money off the hardware, then the x phone will be more expensive than Nexus 4 by Google who makes money off by software (which explains the price of Nexus 4)

Go to any forum of any device and you will always read a lot of "bad things". There is no perfect phone and people tend to exaggerate their problems. Ultimately, it is you who has to decide if this is the right phone for you.
Oh, and don't play the waiting game. When the new phone arrives, there will be rumours of the next, better one. What then?

I would certainly help developers that will actually own this phone if they wanted me to, but as far as getting this phone myself, the answer is probably not.
At least without me, your device won't have a cheesy code name like r2g2.
Considering the fact that this phone is going to be on pretty much all the carriers, it should be good to go when the time comes to development.

Totally agree with you on this. This phone will definitely suffer due to the note 3 being announced on September 4th. They will have the same specs but the note 3 has the stylus and more options to it.

Like a removable battery and sdcard slot. That to me means a lot. I hate having a battery I can't remove and/or upgrade. I rather buy a cheaper phone memory wise and be able to put a sdcard in it. $100 for an upgrade from a 32gb to a 64gb is just crazy. I can buy 2 64gb cards for $100 bucks and have 5 times the memory on hand. I am waiting to find out when the Note 3 is coming out and what it really has to offer to make up my mind.

The Note is much larger though, which will turn some folks off.
it is, but only by .4 inches. Its not like they are comparing the S3/S4 size against the Note 3. Some people will be turned off, but some people might like a bigger screen that has styus. I get turned off by smaller sized screens. Every phone that I have had has been bigger than the last except when I upgraded from the Evo to Evo 3D.
This phone will be fine. LG is quickly becoming Samsung chief competitor. They too make the Smart Tv's which integrate with the phones, and are basically able to match Samsung step for step. There are people who cannot stand Samsung for whatever reason and will be all over this phone. HTC has always been my preference but I'm gonna give this phone a thorough once over and may jump on board the LG wagon.

The launch time could be a blessing or a curse. The pro is that there aren't many flagship phones (read: not phablets) being launched right now and thus this will be ahead of most things on the market, unlike in Spring, when HTC and Samsung both release products with nearly identical specs. Unfortunately for LG though, this could mean people will wait for the next "Galaxy" or next HTC device (HTC 2? HTC One Jr.?) or maybe next Xperia.
Came here cuz I'm wondering about development too. The OG actually has a lot of development and development is just getting started in the GPro. Based on latest Note 3 rumors (take this with a grain of salt) the G Pro can hang with it and it is significantly cheaper. Being on all carriers will help the attraction. Just my 2 cents.

What options you mean? And stylus, why you may need stylus simultaneously with CM/AOSP, there's no wacom drivers for stylus AFAIK so flashing CM makes NoteIII stylusless. Am I wrong?

Yes. Don't forget that G2 is bigger than SGS4 only by .2" and Note III bigger than G2 only by .4" So no big deal in reality. BUT Note III will have lot heavier bezels and therefor will be more bulky and not ergonomic and less gripfriendly
Well we don't fully know what the note 3 will look like exactly, we only speculations so far. The G2 will be good for me though. But honestly I wouldn't mind a note 3 because my next upgrade is November. That's the only reason. But I would really like the G2 because I am in love with my GPro.

And so ? Samsung 10.1 tablet can not release normally , there is still no LTE 32GB version in black, original covers for 10.1 tablet...
Theres been rumors of this for a while, looks like internals will be identical, only difference is screen size and it'll probably be more expensive. I'd probably prefer a larger tablet to fit the size of a sheet of paper but i'm not sure if I'd pay extra for it since it'll be close to the size of a laptop screen.

yeah, it's been known for a good bit and even mentioned in one of these threads here. seeing as the 10.1 is $600 i'm sure as hell not gonna spend that much more on an android device that i break a warranty if i want root access. i'll just get a wintab and put what ever os i want. if next year's samsung tablet jumps the $600 price, i'll just have to do with out the spen or just stick with some x64 tablets.

its not an upgrade, its a different model
I believe I will stick with the 10.1 as the screen is currently rounded up to 300 ppi. The 12.2 will have a lower ppi if it has the same resolution, and if it has a higher resolution then the extra processing power will have to accommodate that. The 10.1 is already a little sluggish as it is (hoping for more snappy updates).

Samsung's product releases are already shoddy enough. I'm perfectly content with just getting the friggin 2014 note 10.1, but it's not available yet in Canada despite it being out for 3 weeks and counting in the US. All Samsung Canada has to say is 'sorry we don't know lol'. Anyway if they really want to compete well with Apple, they should really have a shorter wait between announcement and release. Also release simultaneously internationally!
I have half a mind to just go get the damn iPad Air at the time it was announced (which I won't anyway). Apple announced it a month later than the new note and it's going to be coming out sooner here! Hell we don't even have a firm release date for the WiFi version here. Even in the US there's no word about the LTE version. Crappy logistics.

Indeed, it is just like the 8" version that will be announced the coming months. From early tests it appears the 12.2 inch Note has much faster RAM but otherwise is similar. (faster RAM will improve overall performance somewhat)

Why don't you post this somewhere more appropriate? It has nothing to do with the 12.2. Developers do what they for fun and have real lives. I am sure some one will get a recovery for this.

Coming soon maybe... I wonder how much it'll cost
