If there was ever a LTE version for att of the NS, I could honestly say it would be the last phone I would ever need.
I would be happy with a HSPA+ for TMO or ATT
Hell I am hoping the LTE version will launch for Sprint too
If the GN comes I see it being the LTE flavor. Or maybe dual WIMAX and LTE?
I was thinking of the Epic Touch but seeing ICS on INT GS2 left a horrible taste in my mouth . Hopefully they will leave the stock launcher like they did for GB?

I've reached the conclusion that buying expressive electronics when they first come out is simply a bad consumer choice. How often do new electronics (especially phones) ship with some kind of defect? It takes at least a few months for all the bad batches to reach the suckers and the bug-free versions to hit shelves.

Eh, I dont know. My Launch day Nexus One is still alive and working very well. My Launch day Nexus S 4G is stable up to 2Ghz (if it doesn't get too hot anyway), and has no major issues. Hell I even get better signal on my NS4G than ANY other phone I've ever had.
Think about it...

Nexus S is somewhat of a special case; most if, if not all, the bugs were worked out the year prior with the galaxy s line. And if you paid attention, which i did, the gs had plenty of problems til they released the the updated versions without bugs (gs4g and ns). On top of that, the ns4g had the ns out before it--> that's about 3 generations of product field testing. You should really thank gs, ns, and gs4g for making your ns4g what it is today
Current evo4g owner eligible for an upgrade. Was on the sprint website trying to decide between this ns4g ($0.00) and the epic touch4g ($199.99). Love the gs2's hardware, but I agree with don'tshootmesanta's distaste for TouchWiz smothering the ICS goodness underneath. Love the nexus s 4g, but it is getting a little long in the tooth. Would it be wise to get the nexus now?
As a premiere customer I believe my annual upgrade will disappear in two weeks as the program comes to an end, and the opportunity to (finally) own a nexus device, for free, seems foolish to pass up.
The foolish thing would be not to get the iPhone 4s and flip it. Nexus S 4G are too cheap to use an upgrade on it.

Yerp. Lnib I've seen them hovering around 100 bones.
Follow the leader @corythug
So you're saying I ought to:
1. Use my upgrade to buy the iPhone 4S for $199.99
2. Sell iPhone on craigslist/ebay for ~ $600
3. Keep using the evo or use the $400 profit to buy new phone off contract?
I jumped on this today for my other line...anyone recomend any good roms...or is stock rooted good enough....I would like to overclock a little too...any recommendations would be helpful cause this won't be my phone so i won't be able to tinker with it...thanks

For me it's either Nexus or no Android phone but I'd get the Epic Touch 4G. You could easily sell it, buy a Nexus S 4G and have some cash to spare. You could even wait and see if the Galaxy Nexus hits Sprint and sell the Epic Touch 4G then.

Just saw this and this makes even more sense than my suggestion. You could get a NS4G on ebay and still have money for another phone.

Yea Peter Alfonso's Bugless Beast GPA 19, very much stock but better. You can just d/l and install it through Rom Manager although it's probably still on these forums some where, just to much other ICS stuff to wade through and find it. I've tried them all and his is by far the smoothest bug free one I've came across, great battery life as well. I'll stick with it until he gets a ICS version up and running.
I was planning to get the Nexus 4 this weekend then I heard a rumor about a 32gb version.
http://androidheadlines.com/2013/04/rumor-lg-nexus-4-with-32gb-of-storage-lte-and-key-lime-pie-launching-at-google-io.html
I wanted to get the 16gb version tomorrow. I didn't get my N7 until after they release the 32GB N7 and they got rid of the 8gb n7 and lowed the price of the 16gb. I'm a college student trying to say money.
Do you this might happen to the N4 too? The article says it might be launching at Google I/O which is less than a month away.
Should I wait another month and see what happens or got ahead and get it now?
Thanks!
Then get the n4 32gb. duh.
Smartphone these days gets older quick the more month you wait

This makes me sick. This is companies testing how stupid consumers can get. I made a post when the nexus 4 first came out stating that they will do this. "Hey let's make a ****ty amount of storage and months later release the same exact phone with more space" why? People people will gladly throw their money at it. People need to open up their eyes seriously

Will be the same case as Nexus 7 !?
The rumor going around is not only will it have 32gb but will also have Key Lime Pie first. So really at this point you might as well wait if you are patient enough.

Who knows, the other rumor going around is that a new Nexus 7 will be announced at a price point of $150. So if that is true that a new one with better hardware is released at that price range then have no reason to drop the price or remove the old ones off the play store.

I doubt it will have LTE (unless the just reenable band 4) but I could see 32gb, not a big deal it's 6mos. after release.
Yes I just bought one the other day... Fml-___- why Google why.
And to the guy above me: I think they're actually putting a new radio in the phone (cdma gsm hybrid)

@DEFJAMVAN that make two of us. I'm in exact situation and dilemma. Just wish that 15 May could come faster so can decide
Get it while its hot this machine is great even with its storage limitations which help me take the leap to cloud storage which is cheaper than SD cards anyway
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I'm on the same boat. Was gonna buy a N4 this week but will hold till May to see if this rumor is true. What I find difficult is the addition of LTE without carrier involvement (see Verizon GNexus) and if the carrier is involved it most certainly will not be sold for $350 - $400 off contract.
Hopefully they do a different design and also with better camera. Got bored with the current one and need some new design on the nexus. Also throw in lte and higher storage. Don't do CDMA as usual because Verizon sucks.

hope it will gets more improvement , especially overheat !!! and instant massage delay !!!
Wait this one out
The best thing for you to do is just wait after google i/o... they probably aren't going to release anything before, I wouldn't risk the money when you can save some if you get it after they announce an update n4 or the next nexus
I love how everyone in this thread is taking this article as gospel.
What would be the point in disabling LTE if they are just going to re-enable it?

Hi,
In an annoying fashion my lovely Nexus 4 fell and the screen shattered, Touch won't respond,
Because fixing it will cost somewhere between 150-170$ should I wait for Nexus 5?
I have the option to have An iphone 4s untill then (not to thrilled about it).
What do you say?
(I'm completely bummed right now)
If it's gonna come out in 4-5 months I'd say its worth the wait. The 4S should be manageable till then. Or you could sell the 4S to fund a new nexus 4 screen

Repairing your phone will cost you $150 and selling it right after you fix it will at least fetch you $250+ , why dont you repair your phone see if you would want to use it or if you would prefer to use till nexus 5 comes out, in case you dont want to you to sell it. Seems like a win-win to me if you would repair your phone. I would have done that if i were in your shoes.

Kind of pricey in comparison for the same non-contract/unlocked state. Far as a Potential Nexus 5, the 4 if I recall came out nov/dec of last year no? If so I wouldn't expect a new Nexus phone any sooner than October unless they're going to sell something like a Nexus 4 and Nexus 6 (ie: "big phone" version) side by side.

Wasn't the Nexus 4 like 299 for base, and 349 for 16 gb so fairly reasonable but the HTC isn't astronomically is it? I know there is an aversion to contracts, but not sure when the Nexus 5 comes out depends on what you need now.

299 and 349 for completely unlocked, no contract, no carrier restriction (so as long as it's GSM).
I mean how are you going to get an HTC One *temporarily* if you're stuck on a 2 year contract with it?
Depends on each person's situation. I am paranoid and buy everything outright, but could be different with others.

Money wise, if he's been in love with the Nexus series, already has an iPhone 4s that can serve as a temporary device if he wants to wait a few months for the possibility of a new Nexus device. (If he had no smart phone at all, that'd be a different story).

just ask yourself:
what looks better in terms of cosmetic to you?
is the performance upgrade really needed for you?
is 16gb enough?
for me: i choosed n4 because n5 is ugly(for me),the 800 soc is not needed as i dont play too much games(actualy i dont play any high intensive game) and 16gb is enough.and i saved 350 bucks.
if your certain the digitizer is broken and nothing else and you can get the screen really cheap, 1/3rd of a new n4 then do it, otherwise buy the n5 if your in doubt, you dont want to be spending money on a old phone as you wont get that money back, personally i would sell the n4 and get the n5 since the nexus range is ment to be affordable, if you can handle ios for 2 months, plus kitkat should be improved by then

yeah its just my digitizer thats broken. i haven't really priced them but i was looking at a unit that costed $170 for a new battery, lcd, and digitizer. i figure if i make the switch to the nexus 5 from the iphone. ill make a $41 down payment + $17 (102+41=143) a month for as long as i keep it, which i dont plan on doing for more than 6 months cause android phones get outdated in the blink of an eye. ill also get the benefit of getting the sd800, but i don't really game that much... i know lte was spotty with my n4 eariler in the year and i dont think i can go back to hspa+ speeds after being on lte with iphone. so i think i am just going to wait it out. :good:

They are both good choices. If I was going to get one coming from an iphone, I'd probably go with the N5. I have a N4, and it doesn't seem like a step up enough to drop the money for the upgrade.

I chose the Nexus over the Moto. Reasons:

Now we must justify the choices of others.
As soon as the Moto Z Force comes to Britain, I will be swapping my beloved 6p for it

Is it possible that it's just weird to you? As I've been browsing the forum it seems like you jump in as soon as someone talks bad about this phone. Weird indeed.
Well guys I had the pure and it just seemed....washed out. But that was back when it was still on lollipop. I went from a G5 that ended up bricking itself after 1 day, to trading it for a v10 (I paid $300 cash for the g5 brand new at&t) and got $50 cash on top with v10 trade. The v10 had this weird white spot and a burn in type effect and I asked to return it to my guy for a s7 edge with cash on my end. So I gave him $100 and the v10 and got the s7 edge brand new. Typing on it was a b**** and it lagged to open the app drawer and I just hated how delayed everything was. So I sold the s7 edge for $500 and was torn between the Nexus 6p (never had one) or the Moto x. The local bestbuy had both phones but only the Moto x was on display. It seemed dim but it looked OK. The Nexus 6p was Google blocked so I was unable to test it. I read everywhere people pick the Moto x pure and I just got the Nexus 6p and it looks great.

It's nothing personal, I'm just fed up with the constant whining about irrelevant stuff. Just move on! Buy another phone!
i been using iphone 6s plus for about 4 months coming from an s6 and i love the iphone its a nice phone just boring lol anyway i ordered a 6p and its coming today! so im just excited to be here!
I switched from the Moto x pure. The nexus is so much faster, less awkward to hold, and flat back is great! Tempered screen protectors actually fit,the 6p feels much lighter weight, and that gold is gorgeous. I do miss the Moto speakers and expandable storage, but I wouldn't go back.
Has anyone ordered or is considering ordering a OnePlus 3? I just did, I figured what the hell. 15 day no questions asked return policy and they pay shipping back. I also didn't get charged any tax. $399 out the door.
Other than a 1080p screen, it has monster specs. I guess the phone junkie part of me isn't gone yet lol.
I figure I will simply return it if I'm not feeling it. Anyone else?
