As long as the design looks good and the specs improved, I'll get the nexus no matter the manufacturer. Hell I remember posting in a thread in the nexus one forums and watching everyone moan about how they wouldn't buy a HTC nor Samsung nexus ever again. Nexus S came out people were happy to buy it, same is probably going to happen with the upcoming nexus, people will moan now but will still purchase it. After all it is a nexus.

sony.

their new xperia designs would be extremely welcomed to the nexus line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Anyone but Samsung. They are not loyal to Android, they put mediocre hardware into Nexus, they made the Nexus belong more to Samsung than Google, poor support, they get targeted by Apple.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deeren:
mediocre hardware??? Poor support???? Your post just reflects that you have absolutely no idea about the nexus line. Hardware specs and support is governed by google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Then why have Samsung's Nexuses always had inferior hardware to their own line? Why can't I get reparations from Samsung? Why has my region's GNex JB update (supposing I hadn't flashed a ROM) been delayed by Samsung till an unknown time in the future?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deeren:
Samsung builds the specs Google demands...simple as that. By the time of the nexus release, it wasnt at all inferior to the s2. Google has already stated that they do not put emphasis on hardware but proper software-hardware integration.

Nobody has ever stated or there has never been any infos confirming the different variants of the gnex and the updates. Google is known for doing such things. Look at the Xoom for example, Google decided to support only the us variant with updates. Can you blame Motorola for that? Or better... the Verizon gnex, who to blame if not our dear Google... who seem to forget their own original concept of totally unlocked and carrier independent handset.

I am not a Sammy boy but just that Google should take the criticism where they deserve.

I voted for Motorola, considering that Google now owns them. Looking at the results, I'm quite surprised to see how high Sony is ranking. If they do get a Nexus device, it would certainly give the company a boost.

My device would be a lg optimus g based nexus, there's rumors that might happen, it'll be called the lg optimus nexus. 1280p, qualcomm s4.pro quad, adreno 320, 2 gb ram!!! Seriously, what's not to like?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Google demands what specs to use, so if Nokia wanted to truly make a Nexus, they'd have to go by Google's rules.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
I know but I'm afraid that will happen again - since Samsung's updates are exceptionally slow.

I am surprised there is not many support for Sony out there.

I am sure most of you will agree with me that Sony does have the best designs (unique and out-standing) among all other android devices.

the only single thing they need is to use the up-to-date hardware.

I am pretty sure those things are put together we will have a fantastic phone in our pockets.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Youngunn2008:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
The reason you cite is precisely the reason why it won't happen. The OEM that manufactures the Nexus gets early access to the OS. If Google were to use Motorola for the next one, not only would they alienate their other partners, but they would also find themselves with a few legal issues. Part of obtaining regulatory approval for the acquisition involved assurances that they would avoid doing anything along those lines. Even while operating Motorola Mobility as a totally separate company, they're going to play it safe and avoid anything that could be construed as nepotism or impropriety.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lesicnik1:
I actually like it this way. The phone is easier to hold on to in landscape because you can easily hold it with both hands and not worry about accidentally hitting the softkeys.

HTC or Samsung. Motorola would be nice to, I like the Razzr Maxx.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smeelious:
I'd be happy with AOSP support for the flagships of each manuf. (ala Xperia S...if that works)

Aside from that, I'd rather a Sony Nexus...Dammit I need a hardware shutter button. Mostly, I prefer Sony's style.

Since most of the hardware specs are going to be determined by Google, there are very few things that the manuf. can really sell themselves on..being design.

Things I think would be up to the manuf.

~removable battery vs. non

~design

Things I'd like to be up to the manuf. but probably won't be: (aka things I want but likely won't happen)

~Screen type (OLED vs LCD)

~Screen size

~microSD card slot

~dedicated HDMI port vs MHL

~Hardware shutter button

things not in question (things that will be the same regardless of manuf. or if multiple exist)

~UI

~CPU

~GPU

~No hardware buttons (for back / home / recent)

~Screen resolution

People actually want a sony version?

Their phones are terrible and overpriced.

They use garbage specs and charge more than top of the line phones for them.

They remind me of nokia wp7 phones (lumias for example).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ben7337:
Since HTC can't make a skinny phone for crap, their HTC rezound is 13mm thick. The droid 4 with a keyboard is thinner and has a bigger battery.

Motorola locks down their phones, so a nexus by them would be good, and they have great signal reception. I'd definitely need to see a big non pentile screen from them, Either a super amoled from samsung or a nice slcd or something decent. Plus they need to accept the option of a removable battery and micro sd card slot and not kill those even if google likes the idea of dropping the card slot and motorola loves built in batteries.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khrushy:
I'd like to see one from LG. I tend to really like their hardware, but their software support is such crap that I can't justify buying it. Put AOSP support on it though and I'm sold.

Either that or HTC. Samsung are OK, but their build quality always just feels "passable", not premium.

Honestly I think Motorola should make the next Nexus device. It's been a while since they've been given a chance and someone besides Samsung. An interesting twist would be giving it to Sony though. They do a lot for Android and contribute quite a bit.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greeced:
I'd say Samsung, but really it wouldn't matter.. I'd buy anything Google puts out.

BUT...

They need to stop these regional builds.... A Nexus is a Nexus and everyone should receive the update at the same time, regardless of location.

And if its the Carriers that demand regional radios and the like, then screw 'em! Sell the thing from the play store only at a fair price and watch them go like hot cakes!

The carriers didn't do enough to prove the Nexus' worth compared to all the advertising they do for iPhones...

Time Google created a Doodle that features the nexus and make a permanent home for it on its home page... can't get better advertising then that.

MOTOROLA is not an international company. They only provide updates for USA. They are also shutting down their operation in APAC.

Even if Sony makes it, I can gurantee there won't be a shutter key. Clearly, things are moving towards a button free design, I mean, iOS has gestures now on my iPad I don't ever use the home button, and the Gnex has only 3 buttons period. If anything, they'll find a way to get rid of the volume rocker or power button
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Semseddin:
Voted for motorola. My reasons as follows

* Excellent build quality

* Premium materials blend with unique design.

* Strongest radios

* Strongest battery life

* Best call quality
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Whichever OEM doesn't butcher the name ha.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jjhiza:
I'm torn between Moto and Samsung here. As an owner of the OG Droid and Droid 3, I have to say that the build quality is far superior to almost any other company's. However, the Galaxy Nexus (my first Samsung phone) feels sturdy and balanced in the hand, with the extra couple ounces, provided by the extended battery. Initially, I was concerned about it having a plastic, toy-like feel, but I've been pleasantly surprised.

If Moto (a big IF) can bring the same attitude to a Nexus, that they had with the OG Droid, the resulting device could be the best phone ever produced...period. To accomplish that though, they'll need to deviate from the box-like designs used in the Droid line, creating something absolutely beautiful. It will need to have an unlocked/unlockable bootloader, a removable battery back, global capabilities, and (at the very least) a SAMOLED+ display, at around 4.5" (a sweet spot for screen size IMO). It would also need to have a cutting edge, top of the line chipset, 2GB RAM, and an underclocked 1.8Ghz quad core processor, not to mention better sensors and lenses on an 8-12 megapixel camera.

IMO, Samsung has proven to be willing to do most or all of the above, with build quality being people's only real hangup. If Samsung produced a Nexus with the specs listed above, and cased it in a liquid metal housing, it might be "game over".

Just my two cents...thoughts?

Galaxy Nexus - Liquid JB b2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bagelicious:
I don't think HTC deserves it. Looking at their phones over the last year, they are terrible with releasing kernel source for almost every phone. The latest Sense totally jacked up multi-tasking. Their crippled version of unlocking phones is a pain in the rear. I just don't have much positive to say about them right now.

It would be easy to let Samsung make another one and ride their coattails. The problem with that is Samsung barely advertises their Nexus phones (maybe they do elsewhere but I never see their commercials). They obviously want to push their latest and greatest phones that have TouchWiz.

I say let Sony take a stab at it. I don't know anyone that owns a Sony phone. I realize they are popular somewhere but maybe if they got the Nexus then they could expand their brand some. I'm sure they'd advertise it more than Samsung. Their recent phones look pretty darn good, too.

I guess it's kinda silly for us to even debate this really. Google chose someone a long time ago and they've already been working on it for a while now. It would be cool if the rumor from earlier this year about multiple Nexus devices holds true (not counting the N7 and NQ).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andro X:
The purpose of this poll is for you to pick who you would choose, not who we think Google already chose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyGnex:
No buttons no Nexus for me.

I like buttons, nothing beats the feeling of a hardware button clicking underneath your fingers :D

Besides, replacing hardware button is way easier than replacing a fcuked touchscreen.Less risk involved :good:

I call bs on the 3 Nexus phones. Last year was 5 Nexus phones, and looks what happened. Too much fragmentation with 3 nexus phones, there is enough with Sprint's, some gsm and Verizon's. Let Sony be the only one, on the play store pentaband Gsm.

That's why it doesn't matter who makes it, it'll have vanilla Android.

That wouldn't happen if there were no contracts for the rights to sell them with carriers as there currently is.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Does it? Well...

1. They dabble with every single platform they can reach. And more importantly, they are beginning to create their own apps and content ecosystem that rivals Google's - in fact they could do without Google.

2. The GNex - first the name. Then, at least in my region, we have Samsung doing updates, we have a Samsung keyboard, Samsung hosts the drivers and other stuff rather than Google (unlike previous Nexuses) etc.

3. Well everyone knows what Apple is doing with Samsung. Nexuses by no means directly targeted, since Google is behind them, but they are dragged into the water. You see, Apple is suing the GNex as a part of the Galaxy line. If it were not Samsung probably it would be safer.

I guess I can assure you there will be no card slot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martindesu:
I don't really care who the manufacturer is, as I will probably be getting one anyway. I can't believe how much fun a Nexus device is - I have flashed more custom ROMs onto it more times than I had bothered to Jailbreak my iPhone.

Experiences with the latter pushed me over to Android and now I'm making up for lost time, and not looking back! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jasonhunterx:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drewmungus:
I think this would be a great canadate for a nexus. Also with Moto announcing this phone and agreement with intel last winter(same time as Asus announced the 7in tegra 3 tablet that disappeared and turned into a nexus) and now just hearing more after the merger was finalized. I think there might be a slight chance of this turning nexus.

See the intel logo on that invite. Thats supposed to have the new x86 dual core processor in it from them! word is thats going to take the crown as fastest in the mobile world.

The bezel less would would no more prone to getting cracked than my gnex. The glass goes all the way to the outside anyways. and it cracks easily. Bezel less is just eliminating all the wasted glass that has no actual screen in it.

Just imagine your gnex with the actual screen filling all that useless glass. It would add .75 of a inch(eyeballing it here) to our screen size without adding physical size, weight , or being any bit more susceptible to damage
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:

They have done beautiful work in the past, present and they will also carry on with it! I had to set my Nexus aside and get a new phone (GS III)

but I do regret it at some times, and sometimes, it annoys me, also, that I cannot have Gingerbread, anymore. But, Samsung will carry on creating beautiful phones, on all platforms, you should check out their ATIV S, which is going to be powered with WP8, that is one beautiful phone!

Anyway, hope some more people think the way I do, and that if I need the majority, I have them!
