All Nexus Smartphones have been released in 11-month intervals :laugh:

Nexus One --- Nexus S --- Galaxy Nexus

Jan. 2010 --- Dec. 2010 --- November 2011

So why not? :fingers-crossed: Keep in mind, i said relativley ;)
[Android General] Gorjess:
False, the bigger the screen the lower the ppi, even the 4.65 inch gnex only had 316 ppi.. and if you said SLCD that would be HTC, which is very unlikely to be the next nexus maker..

I'd say stop posting dream specs as it wouldn't happen anyway. Nexus wasn't designed to be the most badass android handset out there..

Let me ask, if the next nexus released, would you buy it to replace the current nexus? No matter what company makes it?
[Android General] leventccc:
I was hoping htc to make next nexus thats why i said slcd and doesnt matter which company makes it. It will be still pure google and i will buy it :)
[Android General] Jimlarck:
HTC is closed source even for an Android.. They're looking more like Apple by the moment.. the HTC One S..
[Android General] NicholasQ:
So google announced 5 nexus devices would be released this year...

And here is my guess...

The nexus 7 counts as 2 devices 8gb,16gb, then we have the nexus Q so that makes a total of 3 devices so far.

Next I think will be the next nexus phone and a nexus 10 (10inch tablet).

Yes I know, these are just random guesses but I just wanted to make it for fun :silly:
[Android General] lowandbehold:
HTC is closed source? No. Sense is closed source. And so is touchwiz, blur, etc...all skins are.
[Android General] ET3RNA4:
Yeah, but the entire point of a "Nexus" device is the pure google experience, with no skins, bloatware, etc, which is what I'm thinking will be the hardest part for Google to convince the other companies to do. That's why I'm also very doubtful about the whole "Google wants multiple companies to make their phone".
[Android General] lowandbehold:
No, I don't believe it will be multiple companies. You do realize that HTC made the Nexus One, right? Samsung doesn't put touchwiz on the Nexus. Companies know what they are getting into when they produce a Nexus device, and I am quite sure they all want a shot at making it.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
I always thought companies just made the hardware of the nexus. And google the software.
[Android General] leventccc:
Its right man companies are just manufacturing the hardware. Software is pure google nothing else.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
So in that case wouldn't it be better if HTC makes the hardware? I've always liked their solid Feel of a Phone. And Maybe A Quad-core?

Anyways, just my thoughts.
[Android General] leventccc:
Yes, when you touch the back of htc one x and samsung galaxy s3 you can feel the difference of htc.
[Android General] saw man:
The compaction clearly between HTC and Samsung , which I hope HTC to be the winner.

Phone Dog had tried CM10 on both S3 and OneX ,and 60% the OneX was the faster , the only problem of HTC was camera , but they made it beautiful, they should wark of battery , Motorola is way behind those companies , Sony not likely , lg would be a surprise :)
[Android General] Taskman:
I would really like LG to be given a chance. Sure their software is crap which is why a Nexus would be good for them.

Or Samsung but with less plastic..

HTC with removable battery.

Sony with better hardware.

Boy I'm dreaming... Now I really want a Nexus device.
[Android General] ET3RNA4:
I disagree with LG, I have a G2X and have never been soo dissapointed in a phone in my entire life. The quality is cheap, LG hasn't "supported" the phone since launch, and I'm stuck on Gingerbread 2.3.4. Sony on the other hand, makes amazing phones, really well built, nice quality display screens, would Love for Sony to make the next Nexus.
[Android General] Logi_Ca1:
In fact supposedly one of the perks of being a Nexus maker is getting the source code early, just like how it was said that Samsung got the ICS source code early due to the Galaxy Nexus.

Of course, the above means nothing if the company is unwilling or disinterested in updating their phones, or their programmers are one evolutionary step above an orang utan.
[Android General] _Variable:
This concept my little sis made is cool:

LG Nexus ME

1.6 GHz Intel Atom or Snapdragon S4 processor

(First phone with?) 2GB RAM

Hardware backlit buttons

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean

Available in 16 ,32 ,64 GB

Design inspired by LG Optimus ME
[Android General] crixley:
design is hideous, kill it with fire!

LG is absolutely the worst.
[Android General] raptir:
I had purchased the Galaxy S III and exchanged it for the One X because of how "cheap" it felt. That said, the Galaxy Nexus feels much, much better made than the S III.
[Android General] kinghorsey:
Pending final approval of Google's takeover of Motorola next month the next nexus is likely to be a Motorola phone.
[Android General] chaki-:
Moto, HTC or Sammy....everyone has the strong parts. Moto -battery and radio , HTC -build, Sammy -hardware. Dream would be to see the best parts in one place. We wait and will see whats comming :fingers-crossed:
[Android General] gagdude:
No way, there's already a certain LG phone with 2GB RAM but the better known one is the SGS3 (Korean and USA variants).
[Android General] aaronfuhrer:
I'm sorry, but that looks horrible.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
My own Next Nexus Concept (Did this is 4 minutes while on a Moving car so please be nice)

HTC Nexus Raider.

1.5GHz Dual Core.

8 Megapixel Camera.

HD Recording.

2100mah Non Removable Battery.

Up to 64 Gigabyte SD Card Slot.

2 GB Ram

Ships with Android Jellybean and will be updated ti Android Key Lime Pie.

____

Hardware: 3 Capacitive Touch Buttons. 1 Dedicated Camera Button on the side. Power and Volume up and down Button.

____

Like stated before. The Nexus series was never intended to be leading in Hardware. Only in Software. So these specs are as real as it gets. I didn't post my Dream Specs like many are doing here.
[Android General] Quinny899:
That's nice. I can also see you're a fan of Block Story
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Pfft. Yeah, :P , those are my Addictions. In that folder you'd find Piano Master, Dead Trigger, COD BOZ, and Minebuilder.
[Android General] gagdude:
Looks very nice, but thinking realistically, Google would definitely NOT allow capacitive buttons. They would be soft keys like the Galaxy Nexus.

I also think they would up the camera to 8 mp, otherwise the iPhone 5 and 4S will have a big marketing advantage.

BTW, what did you mean when you said "2GHZ"? I'm guessing 2GB RAM.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Doh, yeah I meant 2 gigs of Ram. :( my bad. And yeah, I guess the 8 Megapixels make sense. Let me edit it.

And the Soft Keys were a Samsung thing since the GS3 doesn't have capacitive buttons. Just being HTC realistic here :/. My bad

But other than that it makes the Perfect Nexus.
[Android General] aveling007:
The GS3 has two capacitive buttons. One on either side of the physical home key. Menu (on the left) and the back button (right).

Sent from my rooted, decrapified Galaxy S3.
[Android General] saw man:
Keep what I say in your minds ,I had a vision last night :D and it says :

The upcoming nexus will made by Samsung , in order Google can use that good sales reputation ,and it will have the following features :-

1-the new Qualcom S4 processor clocked at 1.8Ghz

2-the screen will be very between the current size and 4.8

3-the camera will be 5MP but with high capture speed ,also the front camera might improve

4-the battery will be about 2000mA

5-the actual ram will be about 856MB instead of 693 in the current nexus

6-it will get the GPU that found at the SGS2

Probably the design would be mush smaller to the current nexus with low quality material and a shiny metallic surrounding.
[Android General] NicholasQ:
Some of those are horrible specs compared to phones coming out now. The funny this is, I think you might not be far off from what it will be. The nexuses are known for disappointing in certain areas (gpu,camera,nonexpandable storage). I hope you're wrong and google finally releases a game changer again, but I highly doubt it.
[Android General] saw man:
Well, they need to make a phone that represent all Android phones ,covering quad-core to 600Hz single core processor, it might be the next nexus which all we wish ,An As* Kicker :D
[Android General] Drzfr3shboialex:
I really hope if they do decide to go with with quad core its the s4. To me its between tegra 3, exynos, or s4. Google did say they give others a chance, and s4 looks the most well rounded. Quad core s4 has integrated modem, nice GPU, more battery efficient, and etc.
[Android General] NicholasQ:
After the last 3 nexus announcements, I have learned not to get my hopes up. And to definitely not believe the rumors.
[Android General] Drzfr3shboialex:
Honestly I'm expecting led notification on the next nexus. The g-nex one was executed so perfectly, and it has every color in the world! :D. I'm expecting a lot from the next nexus, due to having this awesome g-nex.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Grr. I really want my Galaxy Nexus to be here tomorrow :D.

Sounds so amazing.
[Android General] Spiralzz:
You guys have been discussing the specs.... ever wondered what the NAME of the next nexus will be? Galaxy Nexus II?
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Definitely not. Then how come the Galaxy Nexus wasn't named the Nexus S II? The name doesn't matter to me. Does your phone run on the name? No, it runs on the specs, software and Hardware.
[Android General] leventccc:
If next nexus will be:

samsung=Galaxy Nexus Pro, Galaxy Nexus II

lg=Nexus Optimus, Nexus 4x

htc=Nexus Desire, Nexus Next, Nexus Pro, Nexus D, Nexus X

motorola=Nexus HD, Nexus Droid

sony= Nexus Xperia, Arc Nexus
[Android General] ET3RNA4:
I really like Nexus Prime...
[Android General] gagdude:
...? The last time a phone was called the Nexus Prime, it was the rumored Galaxy Nexus.

Actually, on eBay recently, I saw a week old Galaxy Nexus sell for $220 (approx) because the seller listed it as the "Nexus Prime." *facepalm*
[Android General] Quinny899:
It won't be Nexus Xperia because only phones with the Xperia skinned os have that name. And we all know that nexus are just pure android
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Pretty much the reason why people get a Nexus. It's always bound to be leading in Software.

NEVER in Hardware, so stop posting **** and dream specs. Be realistic.
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Actually I was reading an article last week. Some Google sources have been quoted as saying that the next Nexus will most likely ship with Jellybean, and they will be a little more focused on hardware this time around. This is probably due to the fact that Android is nearly perfect now, and also it gives time to reduce fragmentation.
[Android General] Logi_Ca1:
I have the feeling the reason why we aren't seeing any concrete rumors of a Nexus device right now (which pretty much indicates that said device is near release) is that Google is waiting for mass production of a Cortex-A15 SoC. Seeing as the iPhone 5 is almost certainly quad-A9, I'm sure Google wants to one-up Apple.

Considering that Samsung is closest with the Exynos 5250, that could be going into the phone.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
It'll ship with Jelly Bean?
[Android General] ET3RNA4:
I agree, you really can't advance in Jellybean (Software wise) for a while now...Google definitely set the bar with their latest android version and I wouldn't/shouldn't expect another major update in a while (6+ months). And the only thing really lacking in the Galaxy Nexus is hardware right now, otherwise everyone would have that phone (including me). I'm not even asking for "overkill" specs, just something comparable to the One X, or S3.
[Android General] leventccc:
There is a low chance of google will release it with key lime pie and its not impossible.
[Android General] lowandbehold:
And every "Galaxy" had Touchwiz before the Gnex. In my opinion, there are only 3 candidates for the Nexus. Motorola, HTC and Samsung. My reasoning for this is the simple fact that these are the 3 most trusted an popular cell phone companies in the United States. If the phone is a Sony or LG, it most likely wouldn't hurt the sales overseas, but most Americans would not consider those 2 brands. If it was a Motorola, HTC or Samsung it would have better sales in the United States and do just fine overseas as well. And yes, I know, America is not the decider of everything. But Google is still an American company, and the Play Store still mostly caters to just the United States.
[Android General] Quinny899:
Galaxy isn't the name if the os, Xperia is. It'd make no sense
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Actually Android is the name of the OS...

And can you post a link stating that Xperia is the name of the "skin"? I googled this pretty extensively just now and can't find anything that says that.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Let me use a simple example.

Android = Let's say Windows.

Sense = Windows 7 home edition

Touchwiz = Windows 7 Ultimate

Etc.

Get the point? I'm trying to explain
[Android General] kinghorsey:
Bad analogy - more like Debian/Ubuntu/mint etc
[Android General] Quinny899:
Look at any Xperia device, it looks different than AOSP? No? It's like Sense is a skin too
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Yes, I know that. But just because the phones are named "Xperia" doesn't mean that is the name of the skin. All Samsung devices are named "galaxy", but the skin is still "Touchwiz". I just want you to show me documentation claiming that "Xperia" is the name of the UI that Sony uses..not the device branding. I can show you plenty saying that Touchwiz, sense and blur are verifiable UI names used by their respected companies.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
WHO cares! I call it Xplod for heavens sake!
[Android General] Drzfr3shboialex:
The Sony UI skin is called times cape.
[Android General] -juanito-:

Noticing from the Google Voice improvements from the Jellybean for Galaxy Nexus that there is a big chance that we'll get HD Voice/Audio because Google is going all out on Voice improvements.

Sent From My Sexy Blue Galaxy Nexus. You Jelly?
[Android General] thebobp:
Why's that? To me, it seems the obvious next step from the screen's and soft-keys' orientation-neutrality: to make the phone itself orientation-neutral.
[Android General] thebobp:
Google's subsidizing the cost of the Nexus right now (on the play store) so it's not unreasonable to suppose they would do the same for the next one. Course, the subsidy is not quite as large as the carriers'.. but they also don't rip you off as much ;)
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Well it's a good thing you don't have to worry about it, huh? Sources say it will be GSM only!
[Android General] Jimlarck:
I highly doubt it, none of the Nexus' are GSM (I think)
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Huh? All previous Nexi are GSM. Yes, Sprint got them later and Verizon got the GNEX, but every single Nexus started out GSM. Google is planning on not releasing the phones on any carriers, but selling unbranded phones subsidized by them, through them. That is an issue because CDMA devices require signed keys in the ROM for it to function. These keys are closed source and can't included by google. So unless the next Nexus get's released on a carrier (which is being said that it won't), Google will not produce a CDMA Nexus.
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Ok then, I'm fine with unbranded
[Android General] lowandbehold:
Yes, but it will not be offered on Sprint and Verizon. That is what I am getting at. Check out androidcentral. They go more in depth on it and even have a poll asking if you would leave your carrier to use the Nexus.
[Android General] b1g_un1t:
I'd like to see Samsung continue to make the Nexus line as they produce the best parts imo.

I just hope Google puts an ssd slot in the JellyBean Nexus
[Android General] alpha-niner64:
I'd like HTC to take a crack at it: always know their GPS works and their haptic feedback is responsive and quiet (something Samsung is unable to do). The only reason I hold onto my Samsung Vibrant is because of the DAC. The moment another company can do it: I'm jumping ship. LG came close though...shame about their G2X.
[Android General] imheroldman:
+1, and sorry any other phone.

The 28nm cortex A15's are going to be sweet!
[Android General] web0rama:
any chance they're going to use the intel chips?

not that it really matters to me as I'm on Sprint & have zero plans to switch carriers to go with the Nexus line.
[Android General] imheroldman:
It looks like exynos and tsmc for a couple. Htc might use a tegra...
[Android General] Lizman:
Eh

They...Already Are
[Android General] thorpe_lawrence:
I am using an S2 and know there are theoretical roms already avaliable, but I'm sure the S2 will get JellyBean somehow; it's hardly old hardware still.
[Android General] Allanitomwesh:
I have a feeling we'll get a minor update first, like Froyo to Gingerbread
[Android General] Allanitomwesh:
No chance

Intel won't get serious with smartphone chips until they shrink it more,that's 2013 for sure.

Views on Next Nexus

I am thinking about the UI of Jelly Bean on next Nexus. How much screen size, screen Resolution, ppi does upcoming phone contain. A better camera will come, the phone will be more slimmer than the available version, more light weight, a monster power processor maybe more with quad-core.
[Android General] DarkhShadow:
Samsung

Quad Core Exynos

4.8"

Android 4.1 (Google voice search revamped and called assistant)

1900x1080 screen res

2GB of ram

Prototype already made

Sent from my ice cream powered Nexus S
[Android General] Jimlarck:
Android 4.1? So its like a small update like Froyo?
[Android General] Zurginator:
And how would a phone that uses that look?

Hopefully a lot like this:

(The best part is I've been working on this design since before the patent, and that patent makes it work so well. xD
[Android General] leventccc:
Looks futuristic and nice but I'm not sure holding it is very comfortable .
[Android General] tbonezx11:
I think what he was meaning to say was that any phone with part of the name "xperia" in it will have the Sony skin overlaying the Android OS. If not, that's what he should have said. Haha

The OS is not called xperia.
[Android General] Zurginator:
Yeah, I've tweaked it slightly since then (adding a fillet to the corners). Only thing killing me now is the fact that it needs volume rockers --- keeps me from going completely orientation independent.

Well, that and the power button. Anyone know what the power draw is of a capacitive panel, and if one of those could be realistically used for power and volume?
[Android General] Quinny899:
Finally someone else who understands :D
[Android General] lowandbehold:
You could say exactly the same about the "Galaxy" branding. Every phone that is not a Galaxy Nexus, and has Galaxy in the name has Touchwiz...how hard is that to understand? Galaxy S, Galaxy S Advance, Galaxy Ace, Galaxy Ace Mini, Galaxy Note, Galaxy SII, Galaxy SIII, Galaxy Tab 10.1, Galaxy Tab 7, Galaxy Tab 7 2, and the 100 other galaxy phones out there. But yet, here we have the GALAXY Nexus, running stock Android in all it's glory. So why exactly would an Xperia Nexus automatically means that it includes the Timescape UI?
[Android General] Jimlarck:
A feature. If HTC makes the next nexus does that mean that it will have beats audio? A big chance says yes. HTC will try to sneak in some HTC-ism.
[Android General] ET3RNA4:
I think it's too early of a technology to be implemented, usually patents are made for earlier purposed so they can be implemented if the technology is there at that time, and if for any reason that idea becomes a "hit".
[Android General] Quinny899:
Beats are integrated massively into Sense and its music player, so I doubt it. Also, HTC might not be doing anything soon, their profits are going down...
[Android General] thebobp:
Why is it too early? I'm pretty sure we have the capability to stick two microphones/speakerphones.
[Android General] Drzfr3shboialex:
+1. One of the worst things of having a G-nex is the low audio, and not as good sound quality when compared to other competitors.
[Android General] Zurginator:
Now someone needs to work on making speakers that work GOOD as microphones (they already work, just not great...).
[Android General] D4rKn3sSyS:
Can you make its border a little bit, like Gnex?. IMHO it would look really cool.
[Android General] Hreidmar:

Interesting news, could this mean that Google and AOSP is interested in Sony for the next Nexus ? :)
[Android General] Allanitomwesh:
Lol. No thanks. No Sony for me.
[Android General] FrankyDoodle:

Every phone made by sony looks exactly the same, an ugly box.

Samsung phones differ atleast.

Alright, did a render of what I think the Nex[t]us might actually look like, assuming it's manufactured by Motorola.
[Android General] Hreidmar:
Wow this and the first one looks the best IMO.

Damn, i just can't wait for some news for the next Nexus...cmon Google just tell us who the manufacturer is. :p
[Android General] Lesicnik1:
To be honest, I've picked up my Galaxy Nexus the wrong way plenty of times, since it's more or less just a black piece of glass.
[Android General] Drzfr3shboialex:
Nice. I'd personally like a 5" display, since it would be smaller with software buttons.
[Android General] thebobp:
I'd like 5''+ just because.

Bigger is better (as I found out with the tablet). A Nexus Note would be ideal for me.

I hope it'll become standard to implement edge swiping to hide nav bar, at least in ROMs, anyway.
[Android General] Zurginator:
I hope to see the Notification bar become optional --- a edge swipe to bring down the center, but no bar.
[Android General] thebobp:
Get a Salad Bar to merge it into the nav bar. Getting rid of it is not an entirely acceptable solution due to some notifications actually being important.

If you're talking about this being put in AOSP, I somehow doubt it. Stock, unfortunately, is missing so many customization features I would call basic; you can't even switch the buttons around.
[Android General] Logi_Ca1:
Not sure if this has been posted:

http://www.androidauthority.com/sam...s-lg-optimus-nexus-coming-docomo-fall-109418/

Basically, Japanese carrier DoCoMo slipped news of a Galaxy Nexus 2, Xperia Nexus and Optimus Nexus. The picture seems legit. This really ties in with the earlier report by the Wall Street Journal that there may be a Nexus each from 5 different manufacturers. So who's the last two? HTC and Motorola, perhaps?
