Sooooo what are you doing while waiting for this phone?

I mean besides checking Google and refreshing the threads on here 100X per day?
I guess my low point came a couple of weeks ago after the FCC leaked the measurements and I drew it up on paper, cut it out, just to see how the shape and size felt in my hand...Yea I was bored that day lol.

Trying to sell an iphone 5s to have enough money to get me and my wife an N5.

I like to get a physical representation of things though, always been a tactile learner.

well my trusty nexus 4 screen shattered. So its useless now. Back on my s2, ready to throw money at the screen

I'm moving the wife and I over to Straight Talk AT&T from Verizon with 2 x Nexus 4's until the day arrives. She'll keep one Nexus 4 and I'll grab the 5

For realz dog.
I think what hurt us die hard fans some was that the leaks came out early and it seems like we have already been waiting an eternity.

Release phone first then OS
I think the KitKat is delaying the release of the phone. The phone is definitely ready. They could release the phone first followed by OTAs. I wouldnt mind bugs

Being an Android enthusiast(or over enthusiast like others ) I'm expecting KitKat as much as Nexus 5. Without KitKat changes(hope there have some tricks up their sleeve) Nexus 5 is just like iPhone iteration.

Using an iPhone 5 and can't wait for the Nexus 5 to be released.

Praying for a 64gb version and flashing Roms on my HTC One. Will be selling it and grabbing an N5 if there happens to be a 64gb version. Not likely but one can hope.

I have a 5s as well and was thinking about selling but if the Nexus 5 is $300 with those leaked specs I may use the Nexus 5 as a mini tablet instead of getting a Nexus 7 2013. I also don't want to use custom roms on my daily driver anymore due to my crack flashing habit. Plus I do like the small size, FaceTime with the wife and speed of the iPhone.
And you got to figure that the Nexus 5 will hold its value very well compared to a Nexus 7. I know it's not a tablet but compared to a 4" inch iPhone it's pretty close. And if the Nexus 5 has a ir blaster I would be in heaven.

Why did you decide to stay with the N4 after the N5 was released?

I actually bought the N5 before getting the N4. The fact is, I'm gonna get all of the Nexus devices (all new in box) just because I can. And I plan on using most of them.
But anyway, for those that aren't as Nexus obsessed as me, why did you stay with the N4? I know one answer I'm going to hear: "because it still does what I need". (fair enough)
Just interested in what people think.

Good response. Thanks for sharing.
Some of us are enthusiasts interested in other people's opinions and experiences.

I stayed with the N4 because I think it's more handy. It's a little smaller than the nexus 5 and since I have smaller hands I prefer the nexus 4. Also, the nexus 5's earpiece is weird (atleast for me)

I stayed because I didnt find mych difference and also Im in a condition that buying a new device will probably waste my time ! And also planing to move to google silver or iphone 6

That's different.
Hey, I totally understand why someone would stay with the N4. To be honest, I have relatively small phone needs. My Moto G actually did everything I needed and more. (I gave it to my mom) While we're at it, I bet the Galaxy Nexus would be more than enough for most people. But some people just like having the best. Not that I need it, I just like having it.
No doubt the Nexus 4 is still a strong player in the market. It will have no problem running 5.0
I just wish there was a CandyKat rom for the N4.

I know, a lot of people whom I've told about the earpiece think of it as a weird reason. I, however, just didn't like the design of the phone. But hey, that's just me. I love the moto g and x. They're both very handy phones and pretty solid performers too!

my reason :
- I got my N4 cheap (got $100 discount when I bought it).
- screen density is more than enough for my poor eyes. (tell you the truth I really can tell differences between 415ppi vs 318ppi).
- CPU sector, for me myself my nexus 4 is already fast enough. I mean this is a phone not a laptop/pc, I don't need huge clock speed or ram to play games.
only one two cent personal opinion.

I haven't owned a Moto X, but I know all about it. I bought the Moto G and was very happy with it. My tech-ego got in the way and told me I need a Nexus 5. I don't regret it one bit.

It is a great phone, no questions there

Why did you decide to stay with the N4 after the N5 was released?
I guess because not everyone is as independently wealthy as you. Geez, I just bought the thing only a year and a half ago. Assuming that someone keeps making OS updates for this phone on this forum to keep up with security updates, I will keep it for around the same time-frame as I refresh my main desktop computer, about 5 to 7 years. Heck, my older second desktop computer is 11 years old and runs various versions of Linux as well as XP just fine (Although I disabled XP because it was finally discontinued.) I understand it is the constantly changing hardware that forces Google to very quickly stop supporting OS upgrades on older devices (really just an excuse to sell more devices), but it is really ridiculous that my Nexus 4 will shortly become obsolete by Google's standards, unlike Microsoft who supports their operating systems for a very reasonable amount of time.

I stayed with my Nexus 4 because Nexus 5 didn't offer a significant difference in performance. I was able to compare that side by side, and the performance of my Nexus 4 was just fast as Nexus 5. So i saw no point in change.
As i'm a non gamer guy, i think Nexus 5 will perform better games than Nexus 4, but i really don't play much.
Personally speaking, changing phone every year (some people always want to stay on fashion), seems to me like throwing money away, i think it's better change of 2 in 2 years, then you'll notice more technology improvement.
Another situation, was when i saw the Nexus 5...i was totally disappointed with his design..i mean look at the Nexus 4...it has an amazing design, glass on the back, all seems to be in harmony.
In Nexus 5 it's just a phone...don't know...lack of personality, i guess....lol
Now, i'll be waiting for Nexus 6...let's see if it worth...

Most of the replies posted in the thread apply to me as well. Some additional thoughts that kept me away from the n5:
It feels better in my hands and the size was perfect. The main things I liked were the corners of the nexus 4 were more curved than the 5, and that the tapered edges of the n4 screen felt natural.
I also preferred the n4's "discrete" camera compared to the gigantic wart that's on the back of the n5.
Sent from my Nexus 4

I stayed because I won't jump to another phone until I see significant improvement in technology as nowadays it's just spec bumps. I think the 4th is more than enough to last for another 2 years. I'll probably change next year with the coming of L and 64bit phones and only if it really matters. Oh, and I'm not rich enough to change phone every year ?

No CandyKat? It is there, right here.
My reason? Saving up my money for my masters degree studies.

I got the N4 on contract which isn't up until March next year.
Being a student I couldn't afford to buy it outright, and obviously couldn't afford to buy the N5 when it came out.
I will, however, be buying the Nexus 6 the moment it's released. I should have my student loan through by then.
Priorities, right?

I think the Nexus 4 is a gorgeous looking phone (I'm a sucker for the glitter back) and I like how the edges curve as well, it is a unique design. It's also one of the most comfortable device to grip. Lastly, the size of the screen and phone are very similar to the Moto X, which is the ideal size for me. I believe LG went with cheaper production cost with the N5. I originally sold my N4, but when Android L preview image was announced, I was dying to try it out, so I bought another N4. I'm not planning to sell it again (I hope), there is a charm about this device that I like.

I to am a nexus lover. I did buy a n5, I do use it as my daily phone for the most part. but I do occasionally use my n4 as my phone as well. actually, I use my n4 and n5 every day. my n4 I use daily as a WiFi device at work. and it is still a great device! but those that say that the n4 is on par with the n5 when it comes to speed, are just kidding themselves. sure, in the ui, its just as fast as my n5. heck, my gnex is as fast in the ui as my n5. but I'm not talking ui, as any phone(even my nexus s) can have a fast ui if you set it up right. I'm talking opening apps/process, and computing. the n5 blows my n4 away when it comes to apps opening, and the speed of actually computing. anyways, that doesn't take away from my n4, as I do love it as part of my family

I stayed because it wasn't that BIG of an upgrade from the N4 to be honest. Definitely getting the N6 whenever its announce/released.

I got the my Nexus 4 when Google put them on sale last year before the 5's release. I'm in the process of convincing the wife that I need (aka want) a Nexus 5.

About Nexus 6 need your opinion

Tomorrow I'm going to buy a Nexus 6, the new unlocked with a 2 year warranty, EU version but I need your opinion worth whether to buy or wait for new models of Nexus, and if you can tell me, is it a good phone or buy other models as note 5 or S6 edge+, for now I use nexus 5 for two years and I'm very satisfied

Don't let anyone tell you to wait for the new nexus, because when that phone comes, then it will be wait for the next new one. Waiting is pointless, there's always gonna be something better shortly after.
As for the Samsungs, I hate them personally. The hardware is nice, the software is junk. Yes, even the newer touchwiz is crap. Nothing beats stock Android. NOTHING!
Staying with the nexus phones your on a safe path of constant fast updates first.
The Nexus 6 is one hell of a good phone and I guarantee that you won't notice any performance difference between this and the new nexus phones. Yipee higher scores on antutu maybe, but that's complete crap.
If you are interested in a large phone. Get that N6. Period.

Iv had mine since may of 2015, and I still love my N6 although its got a cracked screen it still performs great! Iv been wanting the note 4 ever since it came out and I would have gotten it, but if I can't have a device I can root and bootloader unlock I won't own it! I love the N6 because its super easy to BL unlock and root, and it doesn't void the warranty!

Of course I do. If I didn't I would have sold it and bought something else. The Nexus 6 is the only phone (other than my Gnex) that I've owned for more than 3 months before getting tired of it and selling it.

yes

A resounding YES! Especially now that I have a Marshmallow rom on it.

Just give me the camera improvements from the 6p but yeah this is the 1st phone I didn't upgrade in a years time.

I love it so much I asked it to marry me. But seriously, I may keep it until the 2017 Nexus is released. That's how much I love it. A 2.7ghz quad core cpu is no joke, and will be a beast for quite a while.

Yes still love this beast,coming from Samsung phones to Nexus. Gotta love it!!! :good:

Its a Nexus! Enough said!

Wouldn't consider upgrading until next year at the earliest. Phone does everything I need and does it well. My only caveat is that it needed a microsd slot.

I got the nexus 6 when it went on sale on Amazon. I love it. Takes me back to my OG Droid days when I would root and flash custom roms (on xtrasmooth right now). Sure the 6p is nice but I have no regrets at all getting the nexus 6. I will be keeping it for a long time

I just got mine last week (was waiting for Nexus 6P but saw this baby on Amazon for $400.) I'll own this phone for at least a year or so.

Do I still love it?....love is a strong word. I think this is by far one of the best phones available. But with that being said I am sadly getting bored of the device. And unfortunately neither the nexus 6p or nexus 5x really "do it for me" I'm actually debating on moving to an LG V10. I am over the whole flashing rooting custom rom thing.

I love mine still. The only thing that's tempting is the novelty of a fingerprint reader. Instead of getting a new phone this year I'm going to look into an Android Auto head unit for my car.

In a word, Yes. Best Nexus I have owned.

Mostly. Hardware wise and specs wise, yes. Though the cpu throttling and volume issues associated with it are a drag for me.

I can't find an alternative phone to replace my beloved N6

I've had this phone almost 2 years now. It's a beast, I love the big screen, it's fast and it's pure android. The other day I was thinking if it was time to replace and upgrade to a new phone and did a bit of research. I have a budget so nothing too fancy or any latest releases. So had a look at Mate 8, Mate S, Huawei P9, OnePlus 3, Lg V10, even 6p.
To be honest nothing wowed me. Similar specs, maybe few plus sides but nothing made me go 'ok that's it'. Maybe the fingerprint scanner but I'm not fussed really.
So anyone in the same boat let me know if you've find any good alternatives or are you waiting for Pixel phones. I'm interested if anyone else is looking for an upgrade.
My other option is to wait another year once the Pixel phones go cheaper and upgrade to Pixel XL.
So let me know what you guys think..
Cheers

the best phone i can find in the market right now is Samsung S7 edge
great battery life and awesome screen and is snapy for sure
the only bad side is touchwoz but you can get rid of it

Awaiting pixel xl and Honor 9 to see if I give up my N6. If they don't wow me, I'll just keep the N6 until something does.

I don't really have high hopes for Pixel XL really. I reckon if I want to upgrade 6p is going to be my choice as the price will drop once Pixel is launched.

I'm in the same boat as you, I really wanted to upgrade to the Note 7 despite my hate for TouchWiz, but there are launchers to fix that. Until that whole battery explosion fiasco happened around the same time my contract ended so I decided to hold off for the Pixel phones. I guess I will know for sure next week, if the Pixel lineup isn't any good then I might get the Note 7 or S7 Edge.
If not I could wait for Samsung's new galaxy lineup, which will be announced early next year

That explosion thing totally put me off too. I don't think I can afford a Samsung at the moment anyway looks like my best bet is either wait for next year and buy cheaper Pixel XL or buy 6p now and use it next 2-3 years.

The 6p is pretty nice. I have a N6. Got a 6p used. I like good audio for podcasts mostly. I watch hours of video at work. Both running Pure Nexus. Very snappy. Its a tossup . I like them both equally. Got a 5x for the kid. She loves it.

there's nothing coming up that I feel is an upgrade across the board, I got the shamu on launch day and was also expecting to pick up a pixel but its been a let down so far with design/specs/price
I'm thinking maybe catching a 6p on fire sale price around thanksgiving or new year, or going with the cheaper midrange chinese oems(oneplus 3/saxon 7) depending on development support
all meh choices so there's a good chance I'll stay put with this device into next year

Why replace it? If you want new device, keep your beloved N6 and buy new one someday I personally can't live with only one phone, there are too many awesome devices out there (in my opinion). But if money is the problem and you need to sell N6 in order to be able to buy a new one, then it's a whole different story and understandable

I can't anything that wowed me like my n6. I would like a op3 but with the lack of band 13 for verizon, and my area is covered with it. I'm stuck with verizon for the most part, only have coverage with most of the rural area I live in. Sprint roams off verizon, the nearest tower for tmo is 15 miles away and I live in the mountians. ATT has the 2nd best coverage, but doesn't have service in my house, and it a lot of areas I go to. I used to be a samsung fan until they started with the knox crap, after my s3, I have never had an samsung device again. I was a fan of Motorola, until Lenovo took over. Looks like I'll be sporting my n6 for a while. At my work, I've actually been pushing the n6 for people to buy them lol

Well, my phone buying pattern has been like this;
Palm Treo 650, 2004
HTC Dream ADP1, 2008
HTC Vision, 2010
Samsuck Relay, 2012 (first and LAST samsuck I will ever buy)
Nexus 6, 2014.
Note the pattern: update when there is something WORTH updating to. For a little while, that was a 2-year cycle. THIS cycle will go longer, since this N6 is still perfect. Should have seen the condition of the palm treo when I was done with it -- the lots-of-pins plug was removed, had a capacitor sticking out the bottom of it, and a custom charging plug, a couple of resistors soldered onto the inside near the battery. That 2004-2008 range was REALLY desolate, sure wasn't going to buy RIM or FRUIT junk.
I will be buying my wife a Pixel XL to replace her N5, and sticking to the N6 for myself. Why? Well the pixel XL will have a better SoC, but not *so* much better that it will have ANY impact on my life.
As far as the 6p goes, straight across the board, it is either equal or LESS than the N6.
Screen: less
RAM: equal
CPU: less (the SD810 is definitely NOT as good as the 805, it was just adequate for them to be able to bump the number to say "64bitz!!!", which won't actually do any good in a phone).
Not that the 6p is a terrible phone or anything, but I already have something slightly BETTER than it, so it would be stupid to get one.
Actually, my N6 recently suffered a... mishap. Got some impact thanks to a 2 year old, that even with a ballistic maxx, caused a couple of cracks in the digitizer, and SHATTERED the AMOLED. Yeah, it was worth buying a new screen for it. TOTALLY worth it.

I'm in the same boat, was kinda waiting for the Lenovo Phab Tab 2 Pro, but it has been delayed till 'this fall'.
Don't want to go back to much in screen size, so i'm undecided for now....
