We have no idea how good or bad an LG Nexus would be. Samsung makes putrid phones but managed to put together some solid Nexus devices.

Secondly, making many Nexus wouldn't be a great move.

Any opinion that is not overflowing with nauseating praise for Google/Android, or gives some towards its competition, is frowned upon on around here.

I have no clue how things got to be in that sorry state.

People are judging LG from their past. Me personally companies change, take Motorola. I had an mpx220 and v557 that both desinigrated in my pocket, and I was convinced they were all crap, then a friend of mine got a bionic and I could tell by playing with it that Motorola came a long way in 5 years or so.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinful Animosity:
You want to know what else Motorola did? Locked all their bootloaders. There are only so many ways to judge what a phone might be like, and the best way is too look at past devices. Do you think I'll ever buy a Motorola again after the Atrix 4G fiasco? I don't care if it's a nexus or not, any company that directly violates the spirit of open source like that is no good in my book.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cor-master:
Yeah but other than Samsung and Sony, it's become the norm now anyway to lock bootloaders. All and all I wouldn't buy a Motorola because of it... Unless it was a nexus. My Nexus 7 came with a locked bootloader but all it took to unlock it was a fastboot command.

You really can't judge a nexus device by the support the manufacturer gives their in house devices. If Motorola were to make a nexus, we'll its really not Motorola its a Google branded and supported device, Motorola would just be the contractor that builds them, and lg is no exception
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinful Animosity:
Just because it's the norm doesn't make it right.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cor-master:
No it doesn't but blame the carriers. They are pushing for it. If you can put custom roms on you can access wifi tethering without paying their ridiculous monthly fees and you might actually not get bored of your phone as quickly and god forbid you don't bite on your early upgrade and get locked with a carrier for another 2 years
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
Its not Motorola's fault, nor HTC....average consumers try to root their phones and unlock the boot loaders and then they eff up and call in to return/exchange their device, and OEMS and carriers lose money that way, that's why they lock the bootloaders

I'm excited for the LG. I like LG products.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yyz71:
Man that is so true what you said! A lot people try and root there phones they don't do the proper research and cry about how there phone is not working right or my fave Android sucks' ugh!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinful Animosity:
Wh

While it is the consumers fault, they still do it. With your logic, it's our fault the government enacted the Patriot act.

If you advocate the use of locked bootloaders, with no way to unlock, you're just a corporate shill
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
Well it seems to be working considering people are still buying these locked phones...

Actually LG products released outside the US are very high quality. Just as of late, everyone in the US gets a bad view of LG because their devices are all super carrier-molested low-cost piles of garbage.

Yeah my wife had an LG shine a couple years ago, total POS, she had made 4 warranty claims in 6 months with it and the 4th time they offered her a Samsung Eternity. My brother had a chocolate, also total POS, and another friend of mine had a xenon, and he had tape on his screen. I asked about the tape and he said one day he pulled it out of his pocket and the outter screen fell off!

But inspite of all that it wouldn't stop me from buying them. After all all 3 phones I just mentioned were craptastic carrier feature phones built cheap anyway and like I said companies change
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I know sometimes we are too close to a device to see trends, but I could insert Galaxy Nexus into those scenarios you mentioned and it would fit more than a few people's stories here.

Samsung isn't all that great either.

It isn't OLED...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.sonic:
I grow tired of samoled. It's pentile, it's not enough bright, it can burn in, have ghosts, consume more power (except for black), color reproduction is not good, white is terrible. Only advantage is black, and though it's miles better than lcd, even that is not pitch black (as samsung tell us).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
For me that's a big time good riddance...the one x and one s screens look way better than the galaxy phones! My nexus has a lot of burn in too...still a beautiful screen tho

No one's putting a gun to anyones head to buy a phone with an AMOLED screen. Don't like it, don't buy it, it's a pretty simple concept.

I for one am waiting for the next Nexus with an AMOLED screen. I prefer it, so I'll stick with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeyMike01:
Nice to know I'm not the only person wanting to upgrade from SAMOLED to acceptable screen technologies.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Omg. Is that the nexus one two? Lol.

...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Not all SAMOLED screens are pentile, but the Galaxy Nexus' is. Pentile doesn't automatically mean its a bad screen either. Hate that pentile has turned into a buzzword to describe bad screens.

Color reproduction may not be "true", but it is good for some that like the over-saturated color settings. What do you mean blacks aren't black? When the pixels individually turn off to display black, I'd say that's about as black as it gets.

I agree on the One X point, but you do realize the One S has an AMOLED screen too, right? Funny how you put the X and S together when talking about screens that are better than AMOLED ;) .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Yep. And amoled blacks beats the black off of any LCD any day, low or high brightness.

...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
I love samoled screens...

the colors look amazing, and those blacks!

I don't get the hate, fk LCD with their washed out screens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cor-master:
Yeah I've used both, think I like amoled better, better colors, brightness and battery life. My current phone has an slcd, great overall picture but it's worthless if you turn the brightness all the way down. My captivate had the super amoled and it still remained bright even with the lowest brightness setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phewizzo:
I love how people are talking about Amoled vs LCD like the Nexus has the same LCD from the One X and etc... it has a the newest IPS + LCD technology... same technology as the retina display on the iPhones. Also this screen has .1 bigger screen then our phone and still keeps a higher PPI then the GN (316 vs 320.) The IPS + screen is beast and way nore battery effecient then amoled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corioli:
Sony nexus was dead.

It was a trick:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
We knew this when the pictures leaked. Anyone who actually thought those were real was seriously not paying attention.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
i think ics and jb were designed for amoled. it just does not work without true blacks. the same OS running on my nexus7 looks like complete garbage, im greeted by a gray navigationbar, background gradient look awful. i havent seen the new screen technologies but i sure hope they can go as black as possible. or google should come out with a new theme and ditch holo-dark. holo-light, which most google apps are using, could be nice for lcds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DynamicRam:
i think the Holo light theme and the grey to black gradients all around the UI doesn't look good on amoled
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
well holo-dark is black. and amoleds strength is black. when i first switched on my nexus i was blown away by this, it looked like in the stores when they put mock-up OS stickers on dead phones displays to give you an idea how it looks. never seen something like that before - not on lcd at least. the gradients are pretty awful though, thats true. reason why just about every single rom on xda has changed them. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Of no fault to amoled. The gradients are low quality and have banding in them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cor-master:
I keep hoping the navigation bar goes away eventually, just seems stupid to have a good portion of your screen real estate wasted with a black bar. I keep thinking they could have the navigation buttons without the bar, and have them auto hide for games, and well they already do for video.

Actually in the future id like the same treatment for notification bar too. Do you really need a bar or can the icons just show up as needed? The battery and clock could stay on the screen at all times.

But I do agree, the glowing gray bars don't look as nice on the nexus 7
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
The problem with hiding them in games is they come back when you touch the screen. So the same API used for video will not work for games.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
people bring that argument all the time but real buttons take space aswell, sit there fixed and being clumsy to operate. softwarebuttons in jb do disappear when not needed, or at least they have the capability. what i like is how quick the response is and how it feels. for a compiled aosp build of mine i tested on-touch performance recently,

[YOUTUBE]_tYpDQ6kim0[/YOUTUBE]

takes me one second alone to get to the recents on my button crippled s2.

btw, take a look into my signature, as to how versatile they can be and how less space they take if you configure them the way you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeyMike01:
The black levels on the iPhone 5 are only slightly worse than SAMOLED. Everything else is significantly better.

If LG packs a display of that quality then people will love it.

black levels on iPhone 5 are not even close to samoled. They are pretty good for LCD though. Pioneer plasmas were the ultimate for blacks. Amoled is a close second.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InvalidUsername:
Ummm...considering the fact that the only Nexus has an AMOLED; they kind of are forcing us to use it -.-

My thoughts exactly. I hate AMOLED with a passion, but it seems as the Holo Dark theme is designed for it, and looks awful on LCDs (ex. Nexus 7). I hope that they will move away from the garbage Samsung AMOLEDs, and use LCDs again for the Nexus line.

This is exactly what I'm liking about the Blackberry 10 previews I've seen. They take away the physical buttons AND no screen wasting buttons either AND no constant status bar.

What do you care? You already said you were leaving for BB10, Android is no concern of yours anymore. Unless you lied like the typical Goodbye posts.

RIM is what the smartphone was, Android and iOS are what they are now. RIM made phones with strictly business oriented features and a clunky hard to use and learn os, and while they are changing now, It's too late imo.

But what's with the super amoled hate? IMO The screen on my captivate was gorgeous. PPI, pentile, and other differences you have to have a microscope to notice are all rubbish.

I do enjoy the super lcd on my vivid, better picture definitely but to be fair it has a higher resolution, and the lowest brightness setting blows.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
Ok, watch this.

You watching?

The next LG Nexus has an LCD screen. Therefor, I am not going to buy it.

Yeah phone should definitely be sitting under 40*C even if is doing light duty while awake. You gotta play a game or use GPS/navigation to heat it up. Charging it while doing heavy duty can make it worse. Something is up if you're phone is even warm just sitting there.

dude I know it's a UI. Damn and I'm not lying it does heat up. Man. And it heats up because of Google Now and/or Maps trying to track me. Even though I have no reception in school. So it'll just track for a who knows how long and heat up my phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cor-master:
I think the what lead to the rumors is the fact their are multiple nexus devices now. The galaxy nexus is built by Samsung, nexus 7 by asus, nexus 4 by lg, and possibly a nexus 10 by Sony? I heard Samsung at first but now Sony. Combine that with a gt-i9260 showing up with a few improvements hardware wise over the Gnex and then a hoax about a certification program and before you know it we're supposed to have 20 different models.

But now their is nothing really confirmed other than the lg nexus being real. The gt-i9260 ended up just being a touchwiz phone, and the xperia nexus was a photo shop job. So I'd say it's dead for now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I kind of wish the lg nexus was 5MP with an awesome sensor. I am not Mr. Photography and have been satisfied with my pictures. But sometimes I see pictures from other phones with superior sensors and the price is right losing horn plays in my head.
