I wouldn't have thought Google would be shifting away from the old 16:9 aspect ratio, but I guess 7:6 is the future then..

This phone destroys the Nexus 7

I got a nexus 7 for Christmas and don't even use it because of my nexus 4. I mean sure it has a bigger screen but it's slower and with the latest Paranoid Android update the screen on my nexus 4 is better as well!
I have a top of the line laptop and top of the line smartphone. Where does a dated tablet belong in this scenario? Maybe I could use it to watch Dragon Ball Z at the gym. Or load it up with porn and use it as a mobile fap station.
I think I'm just going to sell it, what do you guys think I could get for it? It's a mint 32gb wifi model.
Thanks a ton XDA!

Well, I'd advise not to use it for porn, if you don't like it, sell it

You can't compare a phone with a tablet, but still I understand what you mean. The Nexus 7 is a value for money tablet with feature pack functionalities, but the screen is not up to par.

Why not use it for porn? Sounds fine to me. 7 inches is a usable size for anything sex-related (badum-tish)
the nexus 7 is much better for gaming(especially tegra optimized games) then the nexus 4.

dont think theres anything right now the adreno 320 can't handle. i mean come on, the unreal engine demo (epic citadel) ran on 60 fps on the N4. so it doesn't really make any difference. and the screen on the nexus 4 is significantly better than on the nexus 7.

My mate ran the spiderman man game on his nexus 7 and it lagged slightly, yet on my nexus 4 smooth as butter, yet it lags with vice city maxed out, not hard lag but in high intensity areas
But a lot of games are optimized for tegra and have added effects and graphics. I don't think he meant that it can't handle it, the nexus 4 is way more powerful. But games look better on the nexus 7.

Maybe wait for 4.2.2, because 4.2 runs like crap on Nexus 7.
I've noticed too that I'm not using my N7 much since I got the N4. For me though, it's more of a convenience thing. I kept close tabs on where the tablet was before I got the N4, but now I'm not caring as much where my wife leaves it.

Good decision. If not using it, sell it.
However, I use n7 more than n4 at home. I love my n7.

I absolutely despised the N7. Hated the screen, headphone out sound quality, and the build quality. I bought an iPad for my tablet needs. Most of the time you get what you pay for with the Nexus 4 being an exception. It's a sweet piece of hardware that's definitely under priced.

The Adreno 320 is way faster than Tegra 3, that's not the point. Gaming is still better on a tablet than a phone. Unless you have to tilt the device a lot .

What phone compliments the nexus 7

Currently using an iPhone 4s alongside my nexus 7, OK its nice to have best of both world type devices, but I would like to use my nexus to be able to use mighty text type apps so I think its time to grab another android phone, got an option locally a guy wants to swap his galaxy note, but I'm thinking this is pretty close in size, what would you recommend?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Galaxy Nexus all the way. The Nexus 4 is too fragile and not worth the hassle in my opinion. Sure it has a quad core processor and 2Gb of RAM, but honestly.. who uses that on a phone.
I would recommend the HTC One X, but seriously... After some of the stuff HTC have been doing nowadays, I struggle to recommend HTC.
I have an original GNote and can't imagine having any thing else. There is a bigger difference in size then you would think.
And remember "When you go Note, 4 inches is a joke".
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I am finding N4 compliments N7 greatly. Basically you get some great raw power on both devices, but the tegra in the N7 give way for different, but complimentary usage. Tegra exclusive games run with great power, while N4 runs non tegra with even greater power.
Maybe it was a design decision so that both devices have equal usage. XD
Well screen size is also a factor. I am not so interested in watching video on the N4. Still I find myself using both devices at once a lot. N7 definitely being the couch/bed lazy movie viewing device.

LG Nexus 5 is a comin

OK so looks like LG and Google are at it again. I don't even care at this point, either a Moto nexus for probably more money or LG at same price point. Most likely it is LG at this point and we lose the snap 800 in g2 but get the rest.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
This is just a made up report based on zero facts. Just like the Moto Nexus rumor. Until there is some real insider information, I wouldn't pay any attention to these rumors.
The thing about a "rumor" is anyone can say whatever they want and claim no responsibility if they are wrong. Being there are about 5 different "next" nexus rumors in this forum, most of these are just brain children of their authors.
Personally, I take everything with a spoonful of salt until Google announces the device.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4
Sounds familiar...
The G2 is to big
I like how much space is covered by the screen, but the overall size of the phone is to huge in my opinion. Maybe better a 5" screen?
Everything else sounds great for the same price of the N4. But 32GB would be nice.
Buttons on the side are a must. Those back Button are strange.
Isn't there a thread already talking about LG and the rumors about the Nexus 5? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2396728

Who cares if it lacks Snapdragon 800 the 600 also includes the hardware necessary for always on listening. Nexus has never been about the absolute bleeding edge processors anyways.

G2X was great until Nvidia wouldn't release drivers for ICS. Hardware wise, it had a lot of potential.

The Atrix was released about 2 months after the Optimus 2X. I actually had an O2X, worst phone I ever had. ****ty software support as well, took LG well over a year to release ICS, and even then, it was buggy as sh*t etc. Hardware was decent though :laugh:
I'd rather have Motorola get a chance to build a Nexus phone with the Moto X design.
At least they release it, moto abandoned us

IMO Moto X design and size is great, but unfortunately everything else is dissapointment. I would like to see next Nexus will have similar design to Moto X, but better CPU (Snapdragon 600 or 800), and better body materials (Kevlar instead on Moto X's plastic).

N5 camera

Will the N5 specs be the same as the LG G2, camera and all?

I think I remember that LG used the same camera as the iPhone 5 did for their Nexus 4. I I hope it's the same this time with the new iPhone's 120 FPS camera

A lot of the issues with the camera are that the stock camera app sucks, Google needs to spend a little time making a half way decent camera app.
So its more on the software side not hardware? I'm surprised custom Roms haven't gone to town on the camera
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
So if Nexus 5 has the same camera as G2, how come it has that weird camera lens in those leaked pics? G2 doesn't have that kind on lense or stuff around it.
I doubt that design really changes much from final Nexus 5.

I'm fairly sure that's what it was, people were discussing it a long time ago but I can't really find it. There were even people comparing which camera was better and in the end it died down after they realized both cameras were the same model by Sony or something. There were even a few people having issues with the purple haze on the iPhone 5, who also had it with the Nexus 4, so that gave it away initially, or so I think. It's been a long time, don't remember.
The Nexus 4 does not have the same camera as the iPhone 5.

I'm pretty sure most custom ROMs use the stock camera app. CM was using Focal but the dev had them take it out after CM incorporated and now CM is back to the stock AOSP camera. By the way Focal is now a beta app in the Playstore and is worth checking out.
The issue is the iPhone does much better photo processing than pretty much any phone. This is done at the driver level and not really directly in the app itself. Hopefully, Google can really improve the experience on the N5.
Please keep all Nexus 5 discussions to the existing threads.
