Well I'll be looking for a motox successor. Its just a little less feature for the price that I need. The n5 does some things worse than it but it also does some better and I'm sorry but I love LCD panels. I've had lots of Samsung samoleds and have played with both the s4 and note... I just like LCD better. Also... I still don't know how folks don't get good battery life with this phone. Brightness must just be too high. I've seen some reviews on the lg g2... And I really think some of that screen tech is a gimmick. If I can pull 6 hours sot with moderate usage and almost 24 hours on at 25-30% brightness, with another 30% battery I would be pulling 8 hours sot easily. Don't even need gram for that... Just a bigger battery.

Speaking of that, they could have easily given us that nice wide curve the motox has in the same n5 design and fit a 3000mah battery. This phone is thin as hell, a little more hump in the middle of the back would make it more comfortable to hold as an added bonus.

Well now it's time to test this G2 battery. Bet it will kill the 6.5 sot hours I get on my n5.

I'm exaggerating. A bit. Plenty of sensible people there.

Btw, contrary to the media, laws they have there simply state that it's prohibited to "promote" gay ways, not that you must die immediately if you are one. Russia is historically very religious and is one of the very last true orthodox countries. Even Greece where it's come from has diverted from original orthodox ways more AFAIK.

I find it pretty ridiculous that priests are in danger of being forced to marry gay couples, which goes against fundamental part of any religion, man and woman.

****, I've just spoken about both religion and politics in one post. Ban incoming?

Hi all. Wow its been awhile.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
Congrats, how are you finding it? I love the speed of my Nexus 5 but there are aspects of it i'm not entirely happy with. You probably know that what we got wasn't really AOSP Android but rather the Google Experience version of it. I'd have preferred the AOSP Browser to Chrome, AOSP Messaging to Hangouts, AOSP Music Player to Google Music, etc. The new Dialer isn't exactly my cup of tea either.

What did you get with the N4 update. AOSP or 'Google Experience'?
[Off-topic] PVL_93_RU:
Personally I'm not against Chrome that much, only the speed of AOSP is higher.

Same goes for Hangouts - the integration and unification of stuff is good, I only need the cloud backup of SMS and then I'll be 100% happy

Same as Play Music - especially when it's not just a music player anymore

As for Dialer - yeah, it's kinda....weird IMO

Ok guys i made the decision to not buy the new nexus 7.

I love the device but the touchscreen issue are widely spreaded and there's no fix so i wait if they fix it soon or i have to take the xperia z ultra, even if this costs me 2x more then n7.

I hope this is the right decision..

There is a fix by sfhub on xda. Though I've had 3 n7s and only one had touch screen issues and the one that had issues was fixed by sfhub fix. Remember more people post about defects cause they are frustrated than those with no defects. It's just like any other device. You can always return it and I can't recommend the n7 2013 more it's an excellent device with an amazing screen.

I'm liking it so far. We get AOSP as at the moment GE is N5 only, supposedly to see how people take to it before pushing it out on Play.

I prefer Chrome, and Google Music as on 3 with unlimited data I can access all my music rather than having to have it on the phone. I was initially concerned whether the 16GB would be enough storage on the phone, but with using my tablet for videos and not needing all my music on the phone it's been plenty.

I'm liking the new mail app, but I just wish they'd gone that little bit further and fixed Microsoft's active-sync fudge with Exchange 2003 so I could search my in-box (even if it was just emails that had been downloaded to the phone), and viewing emails on that server as plain text so not picking up hyper-links (am I right in thinking it's because they lost a patent battle regarding recognising text in emails on smart-phones like phone numbers, addresses and links?)

The addition of contact images to the email list is handy, where it gives a square with the sender's initial and a unique background colour, makes it easier to find those important emails from the wife asking what I fancy for dinner :)

The dialler is, interesting. The three large last called contacts seems like a waste of space to me, just put them as the three top entries in the list.

Going to all contacts now gives all the numbers under each contact which saves a tap.

Having it tied in with Google search is handy, just tried a few businesses and it came up with the numbers so less need to open a browser, search for the business, get the number, cut and paste it into dialler and then dial.

I liked it when they updated the dialler so you could tap the name out and it would match contacts, my old HTC Sensation had that and it make dialling so much easier. I'm sure before the update it would keep the numbers on the screen so if I wanted to call someone else, I had to delete them. Now once you dial it clears the entry.

I'm glad Google stuck with LG with the Nexus 5, I'm very impressed with the Nexus 4, it's solid, the back is lovely although slicker than Teflon!

I won't be buying a new phone for quite a while though.

Wife's got the Galaxy Nexus which she loves, but I believe due to the Texas Instruments chipset, and TI getting out of the mobile business, she's not going to get Kit Kat but that doesn't bother her, the phone works great so no real need to change.

It comes with double tap the screen to turn on as a stock feature. The buttons are amazing especially to take a screen pic as you only need one finger. I'm a union Teamster in a oil refinery. But I don't pay full price for any phone cause I usually trade a phone or sell one to get another. In the case of the G2 I traded a motox plus a little cash. At the moment I have a G2 and a n5. I also own a HTC One but it it randomly stopped working completely so I need to try to warranty it. I also have a Nokia 920 but my fiance uses it so its not really mine. When she's ready to upgrade I'll sell it and get her a new one. I get 2 upgrades every 2 years also from my at&t contact. I have one coming in April and next Oct as I pay for 2 lines. My fiance will probably use the one in April and I'll just seek the 920 to pay for the upgrade cost.

Oh and fun fact the G2 screen has zero light bleed where as the n5 just like the n4 has light bleed on 97% of the screens. As far as the HTC One both the n5 and G2 have better screens.
