So I hear that multiple manufacturers will be given the chance to release their own their own versions of the Google nexus. So far I've heard of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus 2, the Sony Xperia Nexus, and the LG Optimus Nexus. If that's the case, and let's say HTC and Motorola also make a nexus, what would you guys go for? What do you guys be hoping for in specs and pricing? How would you feel about LG pushing out a nexus?

Sony Xperia Nexus
AFAIK, next Nexus will be Samsung, Sony and LG only.
I've got O3D ONLY because 3D, else I'd never got an LG, so I would pick up Sony, maybe Motorola if they make one, though seems they don't.
LG never again, even if it's Nexus.
What would make the Sony nexus favorable?

I would also go for a Sony Nexus.
In the past year Sony really pushed their (lost) reputation. They gave the developers the libraries the needed and also supported them (unlocking the bootloader). They are also updating their products. Sony is definetly a good alternative choice to Samsung, which is kinda mainstream.
Sony Nexus
How do you guys feel about sony's build quality and specs? I've never really dealt with or seen them much. How do they compare to Samsung?

i would go for a motorola nexus
but if only samsung, lg, and sony gonna make nexus phones...i would be lost between sony and lg(if sony made it right)... as i don't like the build/feel of the samsung phones
besides with a nexus lg we don't have to worry about late updates
about sony phones...their build quality is good (used an xperia s for a little while)....but i think they are still late in the chipset department
in 2011...companies made dual core phones...while all sony erisson phones were single core
and even in 2012..they had dual cores while other have quad(but to tell the truth...moto is with them too on this one)...but the real problem is their flagship device is using s3 chipset..that's the only reason i don't prefer their devices...hopefully they change that with the nexus

If HTC made one, I would most definitely get it if it had the same screen as the one x. Samsung? Maybe. Motorola? I haven't been much of a fan of their designs lately but they know how to ramp up their batteries. LG? They'd have to blow me away. Sony is the only one I'm on the fence about.
What do you think pricing would be for all of them?

i dunno...but imo it will be like this :
htc > sony >moto = samsung >lg (from the most expensive to the cheapest.of course im talking about unlocked ones)
but...if they wanna do this right..they should have somewhat lower prices than their usual prices...i think if they price them right with good specs and the fact they are nexus phones...which means we'll guarantee the next 2 updates...and the fact that now we have the liberty to choose the nexus of our fav manufacture...will be the most successful thing ever happened in android..at least that's what i think
take for example the nexus 7..good price..good specs...nexus device
and its selling really well and its popular now even though its not available everywhere yet

yeah indeed i was just gonna talk about it too
the S4 Pro chipset is the one i was waiting to see on a device this year...and looks like LG is the gonna be the one to do it.
its gonna be called optimus g i think
we will know all about it in the next few days anyway (as it will be announced at IFA...or thats what i read)
the only thing would stop me from getting it is the software updates and support...unless it managed to be popular here on xda...and got all the custom roms like SIII(it could actually happen though...im sure many people want that s4 pro chipset)
EDIT: the phone is announced here's the link:
http://www.phonearena.com/news/LG-Optimus-G-specs-revealed-as-the-phone-is-official_id33761
but its coming with ICS

Well the galaxy nexus started at $400 but it's now $350 so I'd imagine that Samsung's will be either. I'm hoping they're all around that price range. I'm wondering if they'll all have their own perks or if they'll all be similar and just under different labels.

According to rumors, the next nexus will not only not have an amoled screen but will be made by LG. Am I the only one disappointed?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Well dont you get it ?
HTC is far more expensive than Samsung which is far more expensive than LG.
Nothing feels like my old HD2 that was the most great cellphone ever. I might sell my nexus to go get an HD2 and stay with it until it rots.
Why do u really care abt something which doesnt even exist...?
Relax and have fun with ur nexus s and the samoled, while google and next manufacture comes out with another masterpiece in some unforseeable future.
Remember this, that gogle never said they are going to come out with any of pure google experience handset suntil they launched N1.
N1 saw some nice responce but wasnt doing so well but the noise in consumer market was asking google to come up with next iteration, they did and they saw a massive success, continued the legacy by extending the nexus family with NS.
Lets see what do they do for us in future...
Just my 2 cents!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I believe that rumor is for Google and LG to be creating a "Nexus" tablet, not another phone just yet. The Nexus S just came out!
I will be very interested to see a Google tablet
Cheers
Latest rumor actually is that Motorola might be building the Nexus 3.
A very reliable source said that Apple will have the new nexus *nexus 4GS* ;-) Let's stop speculating what the next nexus will be and enjoy what we have now.

If the screen came with the new Toshiba 367ppi screen (http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/18/toshiba-declares-victory-in-pixel-density-war-367ppi-coming-to/), or the 4.5" LG AH-IPS screen (http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/18/lgs-new-ultra-high-resolution-ah-ips-displays-simply-stunning/) you may not care if it lacks some AMOLED tech.

This is indeed correct the likely choice of the next nexus mobile device line will be motorola due to the CEO of motorola showing up at the Nexus s launch and talking with google ceo etc. they have made a contract to be the next maker im pretty sure you could find the info online
Actually there are rumors of both companies making the Nexus 3 PHONE. And they are just that, rumors.
I actually know both the ceos of LG and Motorola and they said that Casio was producing the N3...
5 inch screen
super-duper amoled 28000×9334 resolution.
24mp camera
2ghz quad core processor
1Tb of ram
front facing 3d camera with sexual chocolate
...the rest of the specs sound a little ridiculous to me so i am not going to list them.
I am holding out for this one
so you mean kyrocera is not making the next one...shm, it was supposed to have three screens,

Yep guyz.as title says.vote on
although i prefer HTC as a manufacturer i voted for Motorola because i want Google to give every manufacturer the chance to release a nexus phone.
since HTC did the first one i now want a Nexus Moto.
I'd say HTC, because ever since the Nexus S they're plastic-y while the One has an aluminium unibody.
Apple...
J/K....
Nokia! Lumia 900 with Android (a dream!) in white gorgeous!

HTC! Prefer their designs and would love to see them make a Nexus.
to be honest, an apple on the oustide, Android on the inside phone wouldnt be half bad haha
but id say either Moto or Samsung

I voted for Motorola. I agree it would be need for Google to give everyone a chance at it. But them choosing Motorola for the next one might not be well-received because it could be seen as them playing favorites.
I have had all 4 nexus/dev phones (HTC Dream, Nexus One, Nexus S, and the Galaxy Nexus)
The HTC phones blow the samsung ones out of the water. FYI, as an active xda member I like to think that I know my phones quite well. Samsung in both cases has skimped on thier Nexus phones. Both the SNS and SGN are missing features from the GS and GS2 respectively.
Whereas HTC actually made reference cutting edge phones with the nexus.
I personally want to see either HTC, Moto, or ASUS take on the next nexus phone.
Motorola, Sony, or HTC.

Hm, I'd prefer multiple Nexii from different manufacturers, for a simple reason: there needs to be more competition as far as the Nexus is concerned, or the sole partner will just slack off.
Plus, this might encourage more stock android, and that's only a good thing.
Sony from looks I jst love the new design of the Xperia S and Xperia P. But I would prefer HTC from the phone's heart.
My vote goes to motorola, in hopes that google might do something awesome with it. If not, HTC all the way.
HTC I never cared for the last few nexus phones no sd card on the galaxy nexus is a deal breaker for a lot of people also they should release it for all there carriers at once I think me next phone will be the nexus if they get it right

Apple hardware is great, even though it's not even made by them, but won't rival anything that Android has to offer. The 4S has a 1GHz dual core processor. So what? Say hello to the HTC Rezound, HTC One X, Sony Xperia S, LG Nitro, Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE etc.
I don't think I need to say much more.
Apple software is ****. iOS can GTFO IMO. Sure, it's clean, simple, fast, reliable and freakin' boring!
It's an app drawer...big deal.
Basically:
Android > iPhone
If I helped, please say thanks
I Think That The Nexus Phones are the Best, between Android and IOS I think that are similar But I prefer Android Becouse They Are Really similar like Nexus S and Iphone 4S regards

Hi boys, and girls
As my 2 year contract on my carrier, is getting to the finish line, i want to get something new. (I will keep my small litle muscle phone O1 as a second phone )
At the first i wanted the galaxy nexus, because of the great software support, and the developement, in our xda forum.
Then suddenly i saw the new Optimus 4x, but, there is one but. There is no developement in here, because of locked bootloader
I really don`t know what to take. Thought about the Xperia S, but nope.
The phones what i need to choose from , are - 1. Galaxy nexus
2. Optimus 4x
Maybe Acro S ?
Maybe some other suggestions?
Maybe the new LG Nexus? It'll be $399 on Google Store unsubsidized according to rumors.

Yeah. I think I'd go for the new nexus phone. Just wait for a lil while
I think getting a new LG phone is a waste, Anything other than a galaxy nexus is.
The new android OS? Availably from day 1.
Every app is tested on that first, which means closer to no bugs.
I think that i will take Galaxy Nexus. Just because of software support, developement. The performance is also o.k No need for 4 cores.

I am in confusion because I want to buy a new phone and I have three choices galaxy S4, htc one and xperia z...
I know their specifications on the paper..but never used...
Gs4 looks best on paper...but it is running on exynos processor and exynos is not open source..and not devloper friendly and I have heard that samsung doesnt has build quality... I have seen that many people broke their s2 and s3 from falling..and what about heating effects..
But although It has great features...
And xperia z and htc one has good build quality and they have Qualcomms chip inside them..
SO WHICH ONE SHOULD I PREFER TO BUY??
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
Galaxy S4 is so amazing.. my choice is S4
So tell me what is good in s4
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
The S3 has been my first Samsung device and I would definitely have no problems recommending Samsung to other people. As far as the S4 goes, my feelings are a little mixed. I very much like the specs on the phone, but I don't think I want to own another device which is subject to delayed updates (both manufacturer and carrier side). Having a Nexus 7, I think I'm going to stick with Nexus devices going forward.

I wouldn't worry about the custom rom aspect of the S4. If there's a way to tweak it, the devs on this site will find a way, guaranteed. I Ann looking to upgrade as well. Super happy with my E4GT from Sammy, will most likely get the 4. Just my thoughts. Hope it helps you.

I don't think it's just Samsung devices. There're going to have more broken screens, since they have sold so many devices. It's just a number game. I'm sure you can say the same for Apple owners...
