At first I thought the nexus 4 sucked, I don't know why, but now I use it the most
Once you calibrate the display, there are no negatives
Its hard to get dirty (HTC ones back white strips get dirty/stained)
Its as fast as the HTC one, HTC may be a fraction faster opening apps (transition/animation speeds in account)
I only listen to a select few songs, the other 1000 or so are on Google music if I ever want to listen to them
Its a fantastic display, corner edge viewing angles could be better, 1080p appears smoother and better reading in bed, but the display is too long, I prefer the wider but shorter nexus 4/optimus g. Better for browsing
The camera is really good, despite what people say, I took pictures with my s3, xperia s, HTC one xl, nexus 4, HTC one, its hard to differentiate between the phones. HTC one probably stomps in low light.
At first i thought the speaker sucked, admittedly not as loud and clear as the optimus g, its pretty good and loud, boomsound sounds epic, but its not loud, the optimus g is the loudest clearest speaker i have ever heard (just sayin) the lumia 620 has the loudest but its not very good
All the apps run better, even vs the google edition roms. Like Next browser, its silky smooth on the nexus 4 but jittery on the htc one :/
What can I say, I love this phone. And onscreen buttons are badass, makes the 4.7 inch display easier to use + feels faster then capacitive buttons
Calling the camera "really good" on the Nexus 4 really puts everything you say in question. The camera is the biggest failing of the Nexus 4.
I also thinks the camera is alright, I don't ask for crazy camera thou.
Its a Picture i look at a couplepr seconds and then Swype to the next. It's a phone

About the camera, the picture clarity is better than my friends s3 when I compared after zooming to Max
However I prefer his s3 image quality for more natural colours in it
If you are speaking about speaker loudness, try xperia live with Walkman
And about this post, if u post it in nexus 4 forums, most people who have used or are using nexus 4 will say that its okay
If u post it in HTC one forums, most of them will say you are crazy
Its your choice to choose!

i also think the camera is ok, it is certainly better than the one that was on my Xperia S
Camera is fine.. It has more natural colors than Samsung s3 .
I'm so tired of hearing these crybabies complaining about a shtty camera.. Clearly you are not using it right!
I would say the s4 & One have a better camera . but they are newer & cost twice as much

You guys who are complaining about N4 camera all the time, why dont you buy a phone with a good camera? And stop crying about it all the time...or are we in some kindergarden or something? Very annoing to read the same thing over and over again.
My Nexus 4 takes very decent quality photos. I couldn't be happier.. Wayy better than my X2-01's photos!

I think you're overreacting a bit. I haven't noticed anybody "crying" here. It's been merely one critical post. Everybody is entitled to his/her own opinion. You don't like it, ignore it. After all that's a discussion board and not a st. nexus temple. People don't have to worship every single part of the phone to use it.
Anyway my opinion is IF you really want a smartphone with top notch camera don't buy nexus. When I bought nexus I expected to get much worse cam to be honest, and I was positively surprised. You can really take some good pics with our camera.
And no offence towards OP but what's the purpose of such threads. I guess we already have at least one comparative topic like that.

either more internal memory or a microsd slot. Perhaps USB OTG if the first 2 aren't an option. That's it.
-Slightly bigger display
- S800 ( most likely)
- 16 gig minimum
- LTE capable
- KLP
- Better camera

--Either 32 gigs of internal storage or 16 gigs with expansion.
--A slightly larger screen of preferrably 5 inches and 1080p resolution.
--Last but not least, a better camera.
Oh yes, a 1080p HD is display would be sweet. I prefer IPS/LCD over Super Amoled. Just overall looks better to me.
My list:
Full HD display (1080p)
16GB w/expandable SD slot and/or 32GB models. I feel 8GB is just unacceptable.
Better camera lens/optics
Decent sounding speakers.
Good wireless radios
4G LTE !!

I'd like more flexibility on USB port, i.e. support for media storage and support for USB audio (to be able to use an USB mic). An audio wake up function as the Moto X has would also be nice.

I think they should build in a much bigger battery, this is one of the biggest problems of the n4!
But as said before a better camera (at least 12 mp) would be great me too.

A better camera
Better mic that records clear audio when taking video, even at concerts

what i would like to see from the next nexus...that is simple. 4" inches phone
Motorola,
16gb,
LTE,
13 mp camera,
720p screen,
slimmer,
more durable body,
dual speakers,
longer battery life
faster processor
....at $300 I think google should stick with a better quality 720p amoled screen and save money. I had the s4 and the difference in resolution is imperceptible to the eye. There is ZERO need for a battery and resource hogging 1080p display at the moment.
However, the big surprise will be the next version of android with Key Lime Pie 4.4 . It will obviously be always on and alert via google now. It would also provide low power instant view. I am tired of these Jellybean updates and ready for another leap in android technology with a universal message replacement, camera suite, and a fresh set of color with sharp tones throughout. The dull blue of ics is getting boring. Widgets will become more streamlined, with less pages on the homescreen. Active alerts on icons too. Maybe an advanced touchscreen capability with airview (like the s4) could be integrated as stock and provide more support in apps.
These are all very realistic and practical expectations I think. Expect the design philosophy as a mix between the moto x and the nexus 7 vertical logo. I just bought the nexus 4 today ,but I can already see the nexus 5 being a great hit. (with a 5" screen??)
With the 257 update, the z1 as a camera phone is making me a very satisfied owner. I love how fast the camera works, and how it does Not lag when you move the camera around. Unlike the note 3, s4, g2, nexus 5.

it is a really nice review. Pretty much confirming what we all have been complaining about (low light shots). It got the worst score of all tests (apart from the panorama), and if it got high score, then it would be shoulder to shoulder with the Lumia overall score. But yeah, I am happy with the Z1 camera but I hope the low light issue is resolved with the next update.
I am not sure what is the problem with the panorama shot, I have never tried it, I will try it and see how it goes
Surely the Samsung Galaxy zoom is the best Android Camera phone?
z1 takes fantastic pics but i thought the Galaxy Zoom is a proper camera with a phone glued onto it.
although am sure the z1 trumps it in pretty much every other aspect
I call bs

Hey guys. I just recently edged up early to a turbo w/ the intention of going to the nexus 6 within 14 days (the promo was only for the turbo at the time). But what I have found is that the turbo's camera really isn't that great, crispness wise, and i am wondering how the nexus 6 camera is since they are both motorola even though the turbo is 21mp.
I know the 6 has the "breathing" during video problem too...i'm contemplating going w/ note 4 but i HATE that it doesn't have root!!

I just puked a little when i heard note 4.
I am no camera buff so dont take my word for it but i think the pictures are fine. I think it gets very positive reviews in the camera aspect. Have you goggled for proper reviews?
I haven't seen too many droid turbo photos but I think I know what you mean. the Nexus 6 takes a pretty nice photo but one at a time. There is no burst. There is no slow-mo video video. You just won't find many of the niceties you might find on a Samsung device.
HDR it does pretty well. I believe the app is lacking but the hardware is pretty good.

Definitely... I just can't find much comparing these two specifically. and since I have the turbo i was curious how it matched up. so far, my old g2 takes better photos than the turbo does, albeit slower.

Yes I would love to hear what app has burst, slow motion video, syncs the camera to the flash correctly and still functions as well as a camera without focusing/hunting problems.

In terms of camera quality(rear and front both), nexus phones always been behind of iPhone,Samsung and LG.
http://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_6-6378.php
Primary 8 MP, f/2.2, 29mm, phase detection autofocus, dual-LED (dual tone) flash, check quality
Features 1/3" sensor size, 1.5 µm pixel size, touch focus, geo-tagging, face/smile detection, HDR (photo/panorama)
Video [email protected], [email protected], check quality
Secondary 1.2 MP, f/2.2, 31mm, [email protected], face detection, HDR, FaceTime over Wi-Fi or Cellular
Or wait for nexus marlin/sailfish, if the rumours right they will have a 8mp front cam.

As a Nexus fan, this would be my best option. The Iphone do works great and shoots great and fast photos, but are extremely expensive. Right now the IP6 is a phone that is almost two years old, so I'd rather wait a few days until the new nexus (or Pixel) come out and get the Nexus 6P cheaper.
Yup, you can already find the 6p for a good price on used market. Once new nexus/pixel is out that price will drop even more. Oct 4 is the rumored unveiling so wait a few weeks if u can to get an even better deal on 6p.
