Think of this the iPhone is coming to Sprint its already on Verizon & At&t if Google & Samsung want to go toe 2 toe with Crapple! Lol I mean apple ;) then the nexus will have to be on all carriers Verizon will just get it like a month or so before Sprint , T-Mobile & At&t the Nexus s was on 3 carriers but since Verizon didn't get one & didn't get S2 they get to play with it first!!
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
I am able to upgrade my Epic Feb 1st, so I am hoping the Nexus Prime will be on Sprint by then, or I may just have to hold out for the SG3, which rumor says will be out in July (yah, I know how rumors go though!)
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
The only thing that concerns me about the Super Amoled HD screen would be if it uses alot of battery. The ET4G has found a great balance of battery, screen, and power. My Epic with same exact screen on time and battery left managed under 10 hours
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
I am still undecided about the lack of softkeys...
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
Not feeling the Bezel.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Same here. I would like to see a photo of the whole phone though.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Well, at least the Nexus Prime will be definitely better than the disappointing iPhone 4S, which honestly isn't a surprise but hopefully will get android an advantage point to stab Apple a bit.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
so if sprint doesn't get the prime, or at least not right away are you guys gonna stick with the epic or go SGS2? i was actually debating the new iphone until the annoucement today no way in hell i can go back to such a small screen
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
sticking with the epic til the prime comes out or a quad core phone.. ;)
[Epic 4G General] mtwow789:
Exactly my thought.

iPhone4S is not worth it.

I was a bit tired of lack of support from Samsung, so thought that I might take the chance and get iphone, which at least gets full attention from apple. But its not worth it to own a phone that can't be differentiated from 1.5 yr old iPhone4.

What was the date for google event? I think that is where the real party is at.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
should be next tues
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
I believe it was the 14th? :confused:

if its next Tuesday then i was close :P

But i can't wait to see how it looks and cool it looks :D
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I'm pretty much in the same boat. I'll wait for the next Nexus to come to Sprint and I'll pick it up. I think I would rather have a Nexus dual-core phone than something else that's quad-core though.

I've never had a Nexus phone, but I have a feeling once I go there, I won't be back to anything else.

However, if for some reason the Nexus doesn't come to Sprint, I'll try my hardest to hold off until next Spring-ish to get a new phone. I've been upgrade eligible since April of this year, so it's just begging to get used (no dirty-ness intended).

As far as the no buttons goes, I'm pretty indifferent on that. I don't think it will take much time to get used to, and frankly, the Epic was my first Android phone coming from RIM, so it's not like I've had them all that long to begin with.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
It should b a good time going forward for phone junkies. I was thinking I would wait until my Epic line comes up to get my next phone (love my ET4G) but if a phone comes along that is too good to pass on then Ebay here I come.
[Epic 4G General] shane6374:

[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Knowing samsung, theyre gonna one up the prime with a quadcore 720p 4.6 screen 10mp camera 3mp ffc and an even slimmer shorter chasis and call it the gs3 and add tw ontop of ics

i mean look how they handled the nexus s

They release the galaxy s, google taps them for the next nexus and all they do is rehash the galaxy s and make it curvy

Then they come out with the gs2 after the nexus s which bests it in every category...

And now the speculated specs of the prime is practically the sprint gsii with a 720p screen.

I was hoping they wouldnt have done that

Atleast htc understood the magnitude of what googles nexus line stood for and actually innovated with the n1 AND THEN made knock offs

I just hope the speculated specs are indeed speculations

[Epic 4G General] jcb123:
Rumors

I read that there's a rumor that the connectors on the side of the phone are for docking it with a tablet, because of ICS compatibility with different size of screens it could be a possibility. But the connectors on the side i personelly think is not for that particular use, because i think only 3 pins is too few for a dock. But if there is more on the other side it would be very interesting (:
[Epic 4G General] Killasmoke:
Your right the Galaxy S3 will be better spec wise than the prime Samsung has to sell there own brand the Epic 4g has some better things than the nexus s4g I owned both but the nexus I'm in love with the timely updates & no bloat but epic better camera & video playback & the display is better even thou there both super amoled
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
I agree 100%
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
@wwpimp - That looks REALLY thin. Maybe too thin. I just hope the thing has a little weight to it. I'm not an iPhone fan, but I prefer the weight of that phone to the weight of the Epic. Can't tell from the pic, but I've heard a metal/aluminum chassis will encompass the Nexus, so I hope that part is true.

Something that thin, if typical Samsung, could be made of plastic and it wouldn't feel like anything at all...
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
We'll see, my upgrade is hinged on whether this device a step above the SGSII. I have no problem with thin though.
[Epic 4G General] shane6374:
Somehow someway if that lands on Sprint, I'm getting it.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Me too. Turns out, sprint won't fulfill their employees promise that i'd be able to upgrade, so I'm here till July.
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I'm in agreement with this. Even if it is 'too' thin by my standards, I'll deal and get used to it!
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
That sucks lil dude. I had them give me my upgrade promise in writing.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
I'm trying again tomorrow. I ain't giving up without a fight.

[Epic 4G General] Comando156:
I hope it is coming to sprint in a timely fashion, I'm epic 4g ed out. Those that say its to slim, or hopes its not that slim... buy a case. I have a case for my epic, but its too thick with it on. This phone with a case will be perfect. If you think it takes away from the quality... buy a quality case. Otterbox or siedio.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Damn that looks sweet. I love my epic touch but I'm really wanting that phone too. Decisions have to be made if does come to Sprint.

[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i'm gonna go on record as sayign that that thing does NOT have a physical keyboard (yay!)

from where the power button is i'm assuming that the thinnest part is the top... seems kind of odd. the standard galaxy "bump" is probably the bottom with the speaker in it. those 3 dots are supposed to be for charging/docking. i LIKE it! i'll probably early upgrade for it.

[Epic 4G General] ghlu:
bgr? I wouldn't trust the site at all..ain't they are the one saying Sprint would get a WiMAX iPhone 5 just a day before 4GS announced?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
hey i hope they're wrong but for some reason i feel they aren't. i really want a nexus phone... might have to try to get the S if this is true. i'm sick of waiting for OS upgrades.
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
It's been speculated that Verizon would get this first for awhile now, as long as it eventually rolls out to the other carriers specifically Sprint around Jan. or Feb. then I'm cool.
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Anyone else disappointed in them specs.....?

If they are true than what the heck, a 1.2ghz OMAP?

If I'm not mistaken isn't the exynos in the ET4G better than that?

Other than the software and NFC.. What's better in the prime over the ET4G? :/
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
Verizon never got the Nexus S... there would be no reason for sprint to get the prime

---------- Post added at 10:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

i think the specs are suspect too... i guess we'll see. hopefully the whole report is suspect
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
That's what I was just thinking. It only has 5 megapixel camera vs ET4G's 8 megapixel. 32gig internal memory vs ET4G 16 internal + 32 on SD, 1750 battery vs 1800 on ET4G. It has the better screen but ...those specs can't be right can they?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
this phone may have been finished before the GS2 for all we know.
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:
I don't care about most of these spec differences. I just want a Samoled screened phone that has good product support.
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
Yeah, yeah I read folks saying that on BGR. Only way we'll really know is to wait until next week.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:

[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
lol i'm holding out hope!

I just got tipped from my source who works at Samsung electronics mobile department that prime is going to be Verizon exclusive.

The question is, how long would it take sprint to get this phone :S
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
You can't legally.
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
Can't you?
[Epic 4G General] InfDaMarvel:
For those of you who keep saying Verizon exclusive.

Exclusivity only last for so long, this isn't going to be like the IPhone for ATT debacle.

AT&T, SPRINT, and T MOBILE all offer the Nexus S. This pattern is almost as simple as 1,2,3.

However its going to require patients if your not on Verizon day of release.
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
No. That would require ESN cloning no?
[Epic 4G General] omair2005:
from engadget:

"Update: A new batch of rumored specs have surfaced over on GSM Arena, and these seem to be more in line with what we'd expect of a new Nexus. According to an anonymous Google employee, that 4.65-inch Super AMOLED HD display mentioned above is just about the only spec to make the final cut. The processor, however, is more likely to be a dual-core 1.5GHz Exynos (that's right) with an accompanying dual-core PowerVR SGX543MP2 graphics chip. That rear facing camera? Try 8 megapixels with a newly beefed up sensor. The handset should also ship with a girthy 2,050mAh battery fully capable of juicing this apparent LTE / CDMA / GSM Android monster."
[Epic 4G General] lepapirriky:
I just read it from engadget and wow, now this the phone that everyone was hoping for...at least I did :)

BIG battery FTW!!!
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
Thank you sir! That processor sounds wayyy better :D

Idk lol would it?
[Epic 4G General] castro08:
Yeah I just read that from engadget

So what rumors to believe? Dose anyone think that it will.launch on all carriers at the same time
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
No 10chars
[Epic 4G General] Dj_Frost:
Not at the same time but being a nexus it will eventually.... and most likely different band versions although id hope it would be worldphone for my own use
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
I was going to say...those first specs would have been a letdown. If the phone is going to have that beasty screen then it should have a bigger battery than the ET4G's 1800
[Epic 4G General] lepapirriky:
It could be a first, just like the iphone been release on 3 of the biggest carriers.

Just dreaming :)
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
Correct...its going to verizion
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
If that is accurate then this is going to be a MONSTER phone. That is the iPad 2 and iPhone4s' graphic chip and the CPU is clocked 50% faster than both of those devices. So if accurate, we have reached hardware parity with Apple's best.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Agreed. After seeing those new updated specs, I'm extremely excited.

All the things I wanted came true :D

Especially the 2,050 mAh battery!!!! That is about 35-40% more battery life than the Epic's!
[Epic 4G General] lepapirriky:
I can't imagen what google was thinking when they read BGR rumors specs trashing their perfect device, they would been so furious that they had to send a messenger to keep alive people hopes on the next generationf the Nexus.

GOOGLE FTW!!!!
[Epic 4G General] twyster:
And then there's this one from Droid life.

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/10/0...ut-this-afternoon-this-isnt-the-galaxy-nexus/

Says next week the Verizon version will be unveiled with the disappointing specs, and the superior awesome dream specs will be on the other carriers' versions, if it happens at all.
[Epic 4G General] 5FOOTER:
In about 5 months sprint will get the prime while vzw is getting the galaxy nexus, also the galaxy 3 will be quad core just my 2 ¢
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
If so lol @ Verizon
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
This is kind of what I'm leaning towards. Maybe there is two differnet phones. VZW gets one to call their 'own' while a true Nexus (no bloat) will be released to the other carriers a month or two later.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Trick or treat!
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
O_O...source?

But wait, some things that throw me off.

Why is the phone icon back to the froyo look, and why would the market be blue and have that 3D effect anymore?

It looks legit, but at the same time I can see how someone could have made it. Based off the leaked video of ICS, and the photo that showed the three buttons at the bottom.

I say trick. Way too blue but I wouldn't be surprised if that still ended out as the case.
[Epic 4G General] MaelstromXC:
Actually, there's also another rumour for the specs of this phone

- dual-core 1.5GHz Exynos

- dual-core PowerVR SGX543MP2

(source links from last page)

If this is really the specs, I would definitely get it. But the specs are like what proposed earlier, then I wouldn't. The 5mp and 1.3mp cam makes me feel like I am still with my Galaxy S 1.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
The other specs are by no means bad and id still get the phone if available on sprint if they had the omap cpu. The omap cpu is among the best. If the specs are as listed in your commnt though, this is probably the first superphone running Android and id line up to get it from sprint.

Verizon first - wonder if there will be any new news at the launch next week .

Telling my buddy to wait for this , he was totally hosed by Binged Fascinate . But even with slow roll out of updates, it was only last few monthes that some 'faster' phones were released. Also TMobile guys keep getting Galaxy S re-released as new ones - only one has a new radio, don't think any of them have an LED flash.

Qualcomm just announced S4 Snapdragon with all the radios having embedded support in SoC . Think Sammys GPU is faster, but better batt characteristics may make this a fave .

Just caught the Stratosphere release , looks like all the Epic features now with LTE !

Sticking with Sprint , but would like to see its varient of the Nexus Prime with LTE or slider Keyboard

I'd rather have the Prime over the S3. I'm so tired of having bloated garbage on my phones.
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
From samung themselves, the say the Gs3 will have a "less intrusive" version of touchwiz which hopefully means more AOSP under the hood. Besides touchwiz bloatware is easily removed.
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I would kind of agree with you, but if you're on this site, you're probably either rooted or at least know what it is. That being said, it's not the same as a pure Google phone, but rooting a branded device and getting rid of all that crap certainly can help.

One thing I always wondered though...would the Nexus have CIQ on it? I mean, CIQ is a Sprint thing if I remember right, so does the NS4G have it on there or not?
[Epic 4G General] dead78:
I'm sure this will be a great device and all but in light of what Sprint announced about the future of WiMax, why buy another WiMax device? Just seems like throwing money away at this point.

I'm very familiar with rooting. I am a flashaholic in fact. It still would be nice to not have to manually remove bloat or wait for new releases to have it done by a Dev.
