Nexus 4 forever :victory:

Lol you are crazy....N4 isn't that good. it has good things but it has drawbacks too
S4 + AOSP =

I too own Nexus 4 16gb, but i think its trash. I think iPhone 5C 32gb that I also own is mutch better.

Well then gtfo, mate! This is n4 forum. You can diss the Nexus but compare it to iPhone and say that it's better.... Maaan, you're asking for troublez!

Oh quit being a Nexus fanboy. The S4 eats the N4 with TouchWiz and with AOSP
S4 + AOSP = You get the hardware of Samsung (8-cores, OLED, 13MP + good sensor) + AOSP from Nexus 4.

You have never held an S4.....btw my Nexus 4 makes a clicking sound when i press the plastic at the USB port. So much about quality.
You are just ignorant.

I must agree with you. Fanboism is equally strong here as among iphoners. I understand that people are satisfied with their devices but making them cult objects is just sick.
I don't think I am gonna replace my N4 anytime soon. I am still happy with it... but to those saying that samsung is cheap plastic...well I wish my N4 had this cheap plastic back instead of its "premium glass".

Mod,close this thread,please.

If the OP likes his phone then good for him(or her). There's reason to like this phone. Why try to rain on his(or her) parade? Pride is a ridiculous thing. The Nexus 4 isn't perfect, but it's far from being trash. I could could call iPhones trash too, because I don't like them, but i'll refrain from that. Anyways, the Nexus 4 is a good phone. It's my daily device. Still powerful and gets the job done. I kinda agree with rather having the plastic back. I got this phone with a busted back and I replaced it with a new one. Some owners might share a certain fear of breaking the back. In this case it was form > function. Imo hardware wise, Samsung does function > form well, better than most, if not all large oems. When it comes to Android OEM, I don't think i'm a fanboy of any oem. Whatever works for me, and does what I want to do with it.

Huge dilemma

I am now making enough money to buy any smartphone of my choice on or off contract.
But with that power comes great thought.
I love the nexus line, I just love everything about it. Its the defintion of cool.
I love my iPhone, I love how "everyone" thinks "oh an iPhone" like mindless sheep. It makes me feel like I'm in the inner circle. If that makes sense. But they some how make it feel like its the best and there's nothing else in town. Even though that's complely wrong. Buts that's how it feels.
Nexus vs iPhone is going to be a huge problem for me later in the year. I just wish Android could use emojis and cut trying to make apps for slower phones.

Asus aren't the only one

Apple seems to be also having quality control issues with the iPhone 5, users are reporting marks, scratches, rattling lenses, missing headphones, not charging, yellow screens, light bleeding etc out of the box... they are having a good ole meltdown(It's a £530 and up phone so I don't blame them). I preordered the iPhone 5 as well and I'm crossing my fingers and toes that I don't get one of those. Is Foxconn to blame for all these scandalous Quality Control(I'm assuming they made the Nexus 7 too right?)?

Wow, I thought Nexus 7 problemes were severe, but these little dents are absolutely not acceptable /irony.
However, I have seen how easily it is scrated, therefore I am happy to see all isheep boasting about how thin their devices are only to put them in thick cases
God those people are suffering from severe OCD to be *****ing about this 8 days before the device even starts selling
Just what does this have to do with Nexus 7 or Android?

I'm not sure why people ever compared things to Apple as if they are the supreme target to base judgment on. Apple has always had qc issues... Just like countless other tech companies out there. Nobody is perfect and lemons will exist to some degree.

I think the N7 whooped ass.
I took a little trip to Best Buy. I really liked the screen on the FireHD. The Mini isn't even that much different then a regular iPad. There is like an inch difference. "30% Bigger" when the idea is smaller is better = fail.

What a life changing revelation. Let's meditate on that so we can all appreciate the profound wisdom it represents.
I must just be too old to "get it" but I see nothing funny or entertaining about the "will it blend" crap. It seems pretty fricken stupid to me.

It's not supposed to be funny. It is supposed to be an entertaining advertisement for how amazingly hardcore their blender is.
I have watched the will it blend videos for over five years and never once have I "lol"led at one.

The iPad Mini is really cool at the first step.
This is inane. Obviously none of you have studied the centrifugal properties of rotational velocidensity at high accelerations. The degradation of the spacetime curve is quite obvious to the trained eye, with signs of mitochondrial necrosis in the sub units of all three devices. From this video one can conclude that the nexus 7 does in fact possession greater tensile biokinetic adhesion while the other two have electrical neo synthesis in spades.
Tricked hard.
I really hate these stupid vs posts. Can't we just stick to posts that pertain to the N7 only?

I think I'm gonna start porting again.

And I won't break any rules this time, I'll make sure to ask permission from the creator to edit his/her content and post it on our device, and this will be the LAST ROM I will be porting, if I do. After that, I'm done porting and I will be upgrading to either the iPhone 5 or the HTC One or S Blaze​
OT: Which should I get?
(A) a Nokia Lumia windows phone
(B) An HTC One/One S
(C) an iPhone 5
(D) a Galaxy S family phone
Post your answers on here or my ROMs, Kernels, and Recoveries thread!

I've thought about getting a Windows Phone. Specifically the Lumia 521. I love the UI and hardware but I think not having apps like Instagram would be hard (its my favorite social network). I have also thought about the LG L9.

The iPhone 5 is nice. Especially the camera. I would get one but I cannot afford it. I would get the iPhone over the One S, better hardware and the new iOS update should be pretty remarkable with Johnny Ive handling it.

Wow, that's crazy side by side like that. Gotta try and get my hands on one to try. The way the S4 sounded, to me, was almost a little "tinny" or too much treble...which is how I always feel like my N4 sounds when I record. Good stuff though.
