A render based on the given data

GNex is still better than any of that, maybe not the S3, but that's because it came out almost 6 months later.

Until now GNex is still performing so well with the latest update, while the rest are forgotten.
If you got any of those phone, I feel sorry for you.


It's the cheapest tablet available with decent quality, how is it overpriced, and "seriously overpriced"? Really?

S4 Pro CPU is inferior hardware?

No news yet, and I'm really happy that they are using Snapdragon 800 for this Nexus.

ZL came out how many months after Nexus 4? Again, almost 5 months. Nexus 4 was having one of the best hardware when it first launched. Plus, ZL is going to be another forgotten phone anyway, while Nexus 4 is going to be constantly updated with the latest OS.

I disagree that Gnex is "not that beautiful". GNex has a minimalist black monolith front design, devoid of any branded logo, making it the one of the best looking device imo. Any form of logo in the front just makes it unbearable for me now ever since Nexus design is available. It's just the right thing to do to put user experience above own brand awareness.

Battery, mine is fine even after 2 years of usage without changing battery, 3 hours+ on screen time, one day+ battery life with casual usage. Don't see the problem with its battery. Where do you even get the weak GPS signal? I have no problem using the GPS. The only complain I would have is the average camera, but still gets the job done provided there are sufficient lights, as it perform quite badly in low lights.

N7 2012 was expensive probably due to the import fees if you're one of the early birds. Now you can get it quite cheaply, and it still is a better tablet than most.

Everyone is hoping for a lower price, of course, that includes me, but don't assume it has inferior hardware just because of its lower price point. In fact, one of the reason Nexus 4 is awesome is due to its price:spec ratio

just fan made renders, but based on the leaked dimensions and video.

Yes I do agree GNex is a bit too expensive at the time, but still I'd rather get a GNex given the choice since the OS support is a priority to me. Faster official update release = faster custom ROM developed.

However, it was only until Nexus 4 that they started to make the Nexus devices to have the best bang for buck deal. Nexus 7 was maybe inflated in price at that time, but that's probably due to Asus, since the official price for Nexus 7 is among the lowest compared to other tablets.

They're not the best deal since we're living in Malaysia, our price are always higher than US counter parts, but right now can you say that a 16GB Nexus 4 for RM990 is not value for money?

BTW, If you really want the best bang for buck, you should probably check out Xiaomi's phone, they're incredible in specs and value.

If by removable battery design, you mean like the Gnex, then probably not. But the battery is replaceable if you have the right tools to do it.

The battery is confirmed to be 2300mAh, from the new leaks. The battery size is can be found on the battery. IMO its illogical to think that N5 will have the same 3000mAh battery that the G2 has, considering the dimension of N5 is smaller.

You'll have to ask the seller, you can find the thread from Garage Sale section.

Nexus 10 for 845 is serious bang for buck, if you need it or have extra cash lying around to spend, I'd say go for it.

you say "win", implying that bigger screen = better. I personally prefer the smaller form factor of the Nexus 5. Slightly smaller display but much smaller body compared to the Note 3.

Probably identical to Nexus 7 2013

Is Note 2's battery life a letdown? Because 76% of G2's battery life is Note 2's battery life.

New Nexus 5 KitKat Leak

AP probably should arrive by December, same with the previous 2 Nexuses.

Wait till it is officially announced and marketed. People used to say Nexus 4 is ugly too.

ehh, not really. Android has been able to slide to launch camera from lockscreen, this is just adding an icon to make things easier.

there's also white, but that's about it.

Nexus 5 time: Google event on 10/24 points to Nexus and Play news
