Title: Next nexus....
Post by: C5Allroad on Wed, 24 September 2014, 23:22:01: Who else is excited to see what Google can churn out? And what about Android L?
Leaked specs claim....
• 5.5in QHD display
• 1440x2560 resolution (534ppi)
• Octa-core MediaTek processor
• 64-bit processor
• Fingerprint scanner
• IP67-certified

Some say Android L was supposedly going to be names lollipop(holy **** I forgot about my lollipop in my jacket)....Anyway now it's supposedly lemon menringe pie. I like lollipop since it's shorter...

Post by: FrostyToast on Wed, 24 September 2014, 23:23:14: I honestly don't think QHD will be all that useful.
I also am not a big fan of phablets.
dat ip67 do. Erryone could use more of that

Title: Re: Next nexus....
Post by: Air tree on Thu, 25 September 2014, 00:13:22: If it comes out at a nice price this is most likely going to be my new phone.

It better have a great battery if it's really going to be using a 2560x1440 display.

Rumors say it has a 3200 mAh battery. On par with the LG G3
Title: Re: Next nexus....
Post by: C5Allroad on Thu, 25 September 2014, 10:19:37: That would a massive upgrade over the 2300mah that I have right now... I can almost make it through the day.
Only thing I hope it doesn't have is rear buttons like the G3. I don't like them.

The G2 I have has a 3000 mAh, and it's wonderful. If I only use it for the bare minimum, a single charge can last me 3 days. Under normal use, it's about a day and a half. And I actually love the rear buttons. But on all of the leaks, it looks to have side buttons.

It's truly an amazing phone. I just don't like the rear buttons lol.

Title: Re: Next nexus....
Post by: C5Allroad on Thu, 25 September 2014, 17:24:55: Well the price is low and the hardware is great, the display passes my requirements though.

he thinks cpus are responsible for lag lol.

also a speedy n4 owner.
Title: Re: Next nexus....
Post by: bueller on Fri, 26 September 2014, 01:59:03: I'm actually amazed at how my N4 just keeps on kicking. Replaced the battery in mine the other day and I'm pretty sure I should get at least another year out of it, pretty sure it's actually running faster now than when I bought it due to the updates. Battery life has definitely improved from Jelly Bean to Kit Kat.
