Thanks.

Nexus 7 or nexus 10 you won't regret it. The nexus 7 is amazing. Only go with the 10 if you need the larger screen.

Nexus Prime

When do you think the nexus prime will become cheap. Many Android devices gets cheaper after 2 months...so when will the next nexus be around $400?

Retail price? That wont drop for a long long time if ever. Subsidized will eventually drop but even then this phone will be top of the pack for a while and wont drop in price until higher end phones are released or sales are slow.

I could care less if there is an "official release" of ICS for the ns4g. I know I will have it on my phone. Thank you XDA.
I'm pretty sure retail price won't go down that quick especially seeing how the Nexus S held its own for a while. Price will probably be a good factor against the iPhone 4S though...

Nexus 7

Just wondering if anyone else here has pre ordered or plans to get one...
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I have been debating this since the announcement. It's a tough choice. I have a Nook Color and it's great! The lack of SD card is the only reason I'm hesitating. I don't think I could bear to have to use Google's cloud services for all my storage needs. I may still get it anyways cause I love the specs. IDK
No plans to get one for me since I have the gtab and I love it
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda app-developers app
I pre ordered on the 3rd and the wait is killing me. There's an entertaining thread in the N7 forum where everyone's expressing the same thing. None of us can wait.

I'm thinking about it but like someone else said no sdcard is kind of lame. I don't mind the cloud thing but come on no SD card?

my point exactly...
I'm excited about this because I don't allow myself many "upgrades" in technology. Well, really, life doesn't allow it. I just suck it up and comply. But considering the price tag, the specs are awesome. Of course, I'd like a transformer...but I also want the next nexus phone, so something had to give.
I don't think galaxy nexus will get successor this year.

G nex should because they always release them around holiday season.

well similar specs - both use the same cpu, which is pretty good, but the tf300 has an SD slot and an optional keyboard dock. I think the TF300 is the best deal on a 10 inch tablet right now, but at $379, it's still quite a bit more than the Nexus 7.
The nexus7 is reall nice, and at $200-$250 is VERY tempting
Waiting for Kindle Fire 2
I've heard that as late as August Amazon will announce the Kindle Fire 2 which should be comparable to the Nexus or better.

Ipod touch 4g or nexus 7!

I really don't know what i should get, Can anyone help me, I already have a HP touchpad..
Do you want a tablet or a small media player?
Do you want a one and a half year old device or a less than month old device?
Do you want crappy iOS or the beastly Android Jellybean?

If your still looking I have iPod touch 4 8g?

I would recommend Nexus 10!
For a tablet at least 8inch screen is better
Wait for second generation Nexus 10.
Ok guys.tx..cant wait for the 10..maybe ill change it appears..

It depends on where you want to use it. A nexus 7 is just perfect for using your tablet on the go and the nexus 10 will do better at home.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I had both at one point and I must admit, the new Nexus 7 felt so skinny. It might not bother you but I think it should've been a bit thicker. The software and hardware on both devices are great though. If you have a few extra dollars, get the Nexus 10. You won't be disappointed.

Leave nexus for HTC M8

Now that we get dual booting and Google play edition phones. Based on rumors of the new HTC One. Would it be wise to sell my N5 and go to the new One? If waterproof. I think I will have to. Always been a dream to have HTC and Vanilla.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I think you just answered your own question
The Google play edition HTC and Sammy phones look vanilla but aren't. They still have proprietary frameworks so don't expect the fact they have GPE to mean AOSP development will be any better
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Oh really. I didn't wanna here that. I like my options open to run whatever I want with lots of development.

Honestly coming from a Droid 3 I love the amount of development on this device even though I am still on the stock ROM. Nexus devices the rest of the way please.

I just wanna know how good the aosp development is for HTC one. Always wanted a hyc stock phone. How could it get any better.

Read the aosp roms threads in the current HTC one forum

It's never "wise" to buy a brand new phone 5 months after the last one came out. However it's your money, spend in on what you want. Just don't expect members of one phones forum to recommend another phone.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
You will have to sell 2 nexuses actually.
imo, the the new HTC ONE seems like going where SONY Xperia z2 and SGS5 went that LG didn't go.
I mean too big body in proportion to the screen size.

It's more than 5 months old fyi - 19th Feb 2013 to be exact..
----------------------------------
I used to use MoDaCo on my old HTC One which (I then swapped for the Note 3 (still have it) and I have an N5 now), had the option of flicking between Sense and GPE - It worked, but as posted further up development isn't that great for the One.
Amen on the price. And not worried about size. My N5 is big with a ballistics SG maxx case.

Just wondering if anyone else was in the same boat. I would like to have the speakers and camera of a new phone. And a few other little things.
