im very sure lg nexus wont get that much advertisement and thus making it less popular and the price will be decrease in no time. people pay gnex for rm2k when it was released but after 4-5month already decrease kawkaw till the lowest u able to get was rm1.2k  .

so gona wait 2-3month and get my new baby!

If I do get it, it won't be because of depreciation or whatnot (though lower pricing is always welcome). My main concern is build quality. Going to wait it out this time to see what reports arise. I was lucky with my Nexus 7, in that I didn't get severe screen lift or touchscreen issues like some early adopters, but you never know.

In terms of depreciation, I'm actually worried about the battery life depreciating more than the price. I've experienced this with phones in any price point, from high-end iPhones and Galaxy models to mid-range HTCs. Once the battery starts to go, having a non-user replaceable battery just makes it so much more troublesome to change.

Lithium Polymer degrade faster than Lithium Ion. Holding less charge and die faster. Only advantage is it can be made slimmer and cheaper. Do a wiki and you'll find out the different between these two batteries type.

COST! fact!...cheaper cost of manufacturing, more profits.
and with it being able to be slimmer, means u can make the phone thinner or pack more cells into 1 space
durability, die faster, change more, more profit.
