I just made a mockup based on the dimensions given.

Dimension of screen is 66.2mm x 107.2mm
Dimension of body is 68.2mm x 132mm

The screen is placed directly in the middle.

1mm at each side doh.gif

G2 has 2.65mm bezel with the housing. The display itself has 1mm bezel.

How to have a phone with a housing with 1mm bezel? doh.gif

True, I forgot the screen should be 16:9 ratio, I think this mockup is more realistic

Camera is too big is a complain? It's a very big positive if the lens is big, the bigger it is, the better the camera performance can be. nod.gif

Especially with the recent rumor that this Nexus will have a Nikon branded lens.

Rumor: next Nexus 5 phone to have a Nikon camera module

and with the promise from Vic Gundotra, a high executive working in Google

I'm excited to find out how good is this Nexus's camera performance.

It could be a fail and disappointment, but it could also completely change the opinion of people regarding camera performance on Nexus phone, and the big lens is a good sign.

Are you sure? What kind of performance you are talking about? It will be nothing like aperture etc etc.

I'm not a camera pro, so I'm not going to pretend to be one. But basic logic tells you that the bigger the lens is the more light you can get into your sensor, hence better photos.

A quick Googling I found a few links that might help explain why bigger lens is better...

Does a bigger aperture create better photos

Does a bigger camera lens always produce a better picture?

Are bigger lens in a camera a better thing then small lens?What are the advantages of a bigger lens?

It is all depends on the quality of sensor and lens in the camera. Let's see during the launch. smile.gif

Yup. I'm just saying it can produce better photo quality, since teckyan97 thought its a bad thing. tongue.gif

Yup, that's why just wanted to let you know, the big lens can lead to good news.
