Yes, you should've, but I forgive you, however some of the options in the Poll are unrelated to what you are actually asking 'What would you like to have in the Nexus 5?'

- You're right, memory card slot is confusing.

- No over-heating issues with my N4.

- Are you kidding me? The camera on the N4 is great!

Tip: Try to narrow it down a bit like: Better Display (IPS, Full HD 1080P)

as such, but ultimatly it upto you, just my two pennies worth. ;)
[Nexus 4 General] m4r0v3r:
while I have voted on a large selection, if someone would just release a bigger battery for the N4 that is compatible and all you need to do is open it and replace the original then am happy right there something like 3000mha or whatever measurement it is
[Nexus 4 General] theexgov:
I still fail to understand the logic of building a modern device without an SD slot...
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
They stated why and I have to agree. The average person gets confused with an SD card and internal memory. I saw it everyday first hand. I dont agree but I understand.
[Nexus 4 General] galaxys:
Its not needed and will go the way of the keyboard, resistive touch, stylus, etc.
[Nexus 4 General] :
My only gripe is the amount of storage. I'd prefer either a 16GB with an SD or a 32 and 64GB with no SD. 16 is a little too low without an SD. But I haven't bad storage issues yet. I'd still like more

And a BIG one. Change the speaker around somehow so I can actually hear my phone with the screen up :)

I'm an android returnee. I had the G1, G2, but then opted for an iPhone 4 for the sheer reason of it being more responsive and reliable (at the time).

That has changed now and I've gone back to my original love.

[Nexus 4 General] Zorachus:
A battery like the MAXX Razr phones, at least 3,000mAh, it can be built-in, non removable, as long as large mAh. And a better display, I don't need 1080p, that's cool and all, but 720p is good too, but don't go too large, I like the 4.7" screen size of the Nexus 4 and 4.65" of the Galaxy Nexus.

My main beef with the Nexus 4 display, is viewing angles suck bad, looking straight at the N4, and it's one of the best looking screens on the market, once calibrated with a custom kernel, but look at the display from the side, and it's completely cloudy or washed out, looking extremely poor. The off viewing angles are very very bad on the N4, actually the worst I have ever seen, like I said, looking straight at the Nexus 4 is beautiful, but tilt the phone to the side, or put on desk a few feet away and look at from an angle, and it goes to sh!t.
[Nexus 4 General] mrBira:
Bigger battery, around 3000-3500 mAh, and got to be removable!

Better screen, with 1080p. 5-5,2 inches.

External sdcard support.

Better camera, not needing alot of mpix, but better optics/sensors is enough. Guess it's easyer to just add more mpix right now..

Agreed!

4.3" 720p without the buttons on the screen = perfection IMO

4.7" including buttons, but edge to edge on the device is also good

I hope the next Nexus is the Nexus v5, and not the Nexus 5" :fingers-crossed:

Had to chime in, finally some other like minded folks in this thread...
[Nexus 4 General] alawn:
A screen smaller than the Nexus 4 = I won't get it no mater how fast updates come.
[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
Yes, because a 5" screen is so close to a 10" screen that I may as well get the nexus 10 tablet instead of a phone...

You havent seen the Xperia Z/ZL then :o

I had the N4 and after many phones came back to it. And am still bowled over by how good the display is. Be it head on or from the sides. Is it the best? No (for me that would be the HTC One X). But man, is the display amazing
[Nexus 4 General] ponczoszek:
From me i'd like to see:

more storage 32gb seems legit (alltough i've never reached my 16 gigs)

better placement for the speaker ( flat back surface + speaker at it = bi@tch pls )

Quality of the camera can stay at same lvl as it is now.

and LOWER the temperatures of SOC ... don't know how use better low temp specs or fix it with software
[Nexus 4 General] Vortex1969:
One other thing I would hope is that we get a snapdragon 800 CPU and not the 600. I am saying this because if we don't' see the Nexus 5 till late fall it would be dated on release. Because the S4 and HTC One are here.

I for one would still stay Nexus but love cutting edge tech...
[Nexus 4 General] xboxfanj:
The OG2 is 800 so I would imagine the 5 will be as well
[Nexus 4 General] jiayit:
I honestly don't get why people want crazy viewing angles.. Imagine you're on a train and people beside you can see what you're doing because of the crazy viewing angles, isn't that kinda like a lack of privacy?

I personally prefer small viewing angles, I'd prefer to keep what I'm doing to myself.
[Nexus 4 General] xboxfanj:
For media consumption, it's better. If you watch a movie, trailer, or video with friends, you want good viewing angles. You don't want to have to arrange yourselves in the perfect positioning to see the screen.

Guys/gals one of the reasons that the device is soo cheap is google does have to make up for advertising. For the most part the device is still well built. You have to remember the nexus is a developers device and that is the main focus.

[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
I love the stock android experience and the fast updates but the software does not make up for the hardware. The Galaxy Nexus/Nexus 4 have both had crap cameras and relatively crap

battery life, the nexus 4 even lost USB host functionality... Hmm wonder why?

So your telling me the only way the nexus line up can be successful is if it is sold for cheap...? Why doesn't Google release a premium high end device that can compete with the likes of the S4/HTC One? Google is more then capable of releasing a device like that and I'm sure it would be quite popular as well.

Most people don't want to deal with the slower updates of a S4/One but they will stick with those devices because hardware wise they are so much superior to Google's offerings.
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
ITs not the hardware, that people see it is the software. The nexus 4 can still stand toe to toe with both of those device if you remove all the OEM crapware.

People see the option in the HTC or Samsung camera and think that is all hardware when it is soo not. IT is mostly software.
[Nexus 4 General] I Am Marino:
Most people probably wouldn't pay for an expensive Nexus device as it's not gimmicky and fanboy infested such as a Samsung device.
[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
Consumers love numbers, the S4 is 13mp vs. 8mp, S4 must be better is there assumption. The camera app on the S4/One is software but the actual quality is hardware, in both of these

aspects the nexus 4 fails. The camera app introduced in 4.2 is horrendous, the average consumer would have absolutely no idea how to access the settings or even know what any of the settings icons mean.

The S4 has gimmicky features that attract average consumers but below all that is a solid hardware experience. S600 processor, 2gb ram, good camera quality and a great screen, these are not gimmicks. If Google provided these specs and the only differentiating factor was software between the S4 and a nexus, they would be fairly successful.

Why do I have to suffer with worse hardware in order to receive faster updates...?
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Stick the aosp software on either of those and you will see a very big diff. The Nexus is not meant to target the average user.

[Nexus 4 General] nikzDHD:
The Nexus 4 runs smoother and faster compared to S4 in most aspects despite using older hardware as software is optimised. TouchWiz is poorly optimised to make use of the hardware.

[Nexus 4 General] gohan040:
You should try to zoom in on a picture taken with the HTC One. Its totally crap because of the low MP. Ehh correction.... Ultra Pixel

Try a 3rd party camera if u don't like the stock one, there are plenty in the play store.

Remember the S4 uses 8Gb!!!!! Of storage for all its gimmicks an bloatware. So u end up with only 8Gb left when buying a 16Gb device. That would be a no go for a nexus device because of the lack of SD.

The specs?

Dude, your comparing a 7 month old device with 1 week old devices. Of course you have a hardware difference.... And I have no problems at a all with the specs, they where top of the line 7 months ago and still are.!

There is no question the nexus 5 will have better CPU, camera, storage, resolution, battery etc etc..... ITS NORMAL FOR A NEWER DEVICE!! :banghead:

Some extra info for u about the CPU, comparing S4's with the N4's:

But I think u are more a S4 guy so maybe u must sell your nexus and pay the price of 2 N4's to have a slightly better hardware experience.....

[Nexus 4 General] vinsh3nt:
Honestly the phone is great for me as is. However with that said I would like a better battery maybe something along the lines of the S4's battery, a non glass back, and better speaker placement. I came to the Nexus from an iPhone 5, as a long time iOS user I've grown accustomed to having the speaker on the bottom of the phone. In my opinion it's probably the best place to put speakers because no matter which way you lay your phone down you're gonna be able to hear it.

As Google will most likely never add a SD card slot, I would like to see a 32/64GB storage option.

2) no OSD buttoms, too much space wasted there, at least put some option to disable the bar while in games, vids or add a side button to activate/hide the bar, should be default on android 5, n4 screen is nice but if you watch the missing space the screen is just like a crap 4"

3)no heating like the n4, i could fry eggs when i play

4) no stupid easy to brake glass, at least put some adamantium in the back or something resistant

5)no stupid speaker placement like the n4, that is dumb

6)16gb is fine for me, i mean the full 16gb, not the crap 12.9 available on the n4, why the phone needs 2gb?

7)less bloated android, i know the n4 is way too powerful, runs 4.2.2. perfect, but still android is becoming some sort of bloated OS, stupid apps consuming cpu and data like crazy kills the battery,

8)native file browser

9)nokia n8 camera with xenon

1080p screen would be nice, but at least 768p (IPS, none of that AMOLED burn in and oversaturation)

4.7 inch screen. 5 inch at the absolute max.

Better screen calibration

Brighter screen

Better specs would be nice, but not mandatory

Bigger battery for sure. I don't care if the device is a little thicker

Better camera

USB OTG

LTE would be nice, but not mandatory

Control the heat better

Metal body would be nice, but not mandatory. No plastic. I think glass is fine, but I don't want the cheap Samsung effect

If they keep the glass, the light reflectors look nice. They could be like some sort of Nexus signature feature, like how all iPhones have a home button

Front facing speakers, with better quality. At least put them on the bottom or sides of the phone, but not the back

Stereo speakers (Not mandatory)

Better DAC. My Shure SE215s sound better connected to my computer, but I usually listen to music on my Nexus

Make the buttons feel more tactile (I have a 211k rev 10, so IDK if they fixed that with the newer Nexus 4s)

Maybe the first android device to support USB 3.0 (This is something that probably wont happen, and I don't mind if it doesn't)

3.5mm jack on the bottom of the phone like the Galaxy Nexus
[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
I would much rather have a 4mp camera that takes great pictures in all light conditions than a 8mp camera that does sort decent on sunlight but fails everywhere else. Why not compare your nexus 4 camera to the S3?

You seemed to misunderstand seem, I want a nexus with the specs of an S4 running stock android...that means there isn't bloatware wasting space.

I'd be willing to bet if history continues, the nexus 5 will have lesser specs then the S4. I'm hoping Google releases the nexus 5 with revolutionary specs vs. recycling an already existing device, (Nexus 4/Optimus G).
[Nexus 4 General] gohan040:
The camera was just a example.

Its simple.... You can't have it all.....every new device is slightly better every time, and even often only on a few places like camera, screen, cpu etc etc its not possible to have the same specs with a 7 month difference. Every few months some company releases a phone with better specs.

But its not about the specs to get the best user experience I believe. Mostly its a combo of price , hardware and software and in no way I believe the S4 is better in that way. Price? No, the S4 cost almost double, Hardware? yes, of course, its the new S4! , software? No, in 2 weeks not anymore because of the release of android 4.3.

I also really wouldn't know why Google should give the nexus 5 lesser specs, that would really be silly wouldn't u think?

[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
That's the problem, the S4 has awesome features in 5/7 things while devices like the nexus 4/upcoming nexus 5 cover about 3/7. The S4 lacks in software and storage while the nexus lacks in camera, battery, card slot and LTE.

Although the price point for the nexus 4 was attractive, it just didn't compete well with high end devices, the processor did but the other aspects of the phone didn't.

I guess that's the tradeoff you get for the lower cost, but I'm hoping the nexus 5 is actually a competitive device in all aspects not just processor/software wise.
[Nexus 4 General] New Optimus:
There is a saying, Fast, Cheap, Reliable. Pick any 2.

[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
The Nexus One was a developers device, the current nexus line up is advertised to the general public with a shiny low price tag. Sure the nexus devices may retain there ease of flashing but once you begin to air TV commercials about your device, it becomes a consumer's device not a developers.

If the phone has downfalls that an average consumer/person will spot from a mile away don't pull the "oh but its a developer phone" plea when the nexus line up is clearly straying from developers hands and into consumers.
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Google always has provided the basic software and then left the rest to the people. If you want great features then by all means then make it. That is the way it was meant to be. Anyone that gets this device and is not intending to use it to learning to develop is to be honest wasting their money. The Nexus line will never compete toe to toe with other high end devices for features.
[Nexus 4 General] msavic6:
Are you serious...? Your telling me this commercial is geared for developers...?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5l4D2tn_-kQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Your logic is awesome, let's say I'm a developer of an awesome camera app, what phone am I going to develop on...? The nexus phone's where the camera stinks ?
