4.6 Inch's display on the Nexus 5?

That is smaller and plus if it is the Nexus 5 then it will be 5.x inch's.
[Nexus 5 General] maliceomalice:
its not that eye catching compared to nexus 4. i thought a concept design was supposed to be out of this world kind of stuff..:D:D

[Nexus 5 General] LoVeRice:
Sad part is all these features remains a concept
[Nexus 5 General] AgentCherryColla:
Why does everyone think the Nexus 5 *has* to have a 5 inch screen in order to have the 5. Yeah the Nexus 7, and 10 have corresponding screen sizing. But the

Nexus One didn't have a 1 inch screen.

Nexus S didn't have a S screen

Galaxy Nexus didn't ha e a Galaxy for a screen.

The Nexus 5 will be the fifth Nexus phone. So it would make sense to label it as a 5.

Sorry for the flame .
[Nexus 5 General] The Zel:
And the nexus 4 is 4.7 inches, not 4 :)
[Nexus 5 General] maliceomalice:
once upon a time, before Google realize the importance of nexus line, a guy from google said, "hey, lets make a standard phone for manufacturer to know what hardware can run our new OS..?". So born the nexus one.

However it is not until Galaxy Nexus that Google realize, "Wow,this phone is quite popular with end user, not just some devs with android coding knowledge."

Then they start giving more thought into the name.

So thats why the new Nexus 7 is not called Nexus 8.

[Nexus 5 General] akshayguptaus:
You checked it if it has 5 inches. And Google is a staunch believer that 1080p is not needed for phone as it hardly makes a difference. Look at the moto x even that is not a fHD. And if it is a fHD device the price will not be that of a nexus then. So stop saying that it shall have 5inches or greater as that is not a phone but a phablet.
[Nexus 5 General] maliceomalice:
whoa..hey tiger,when i said eye catching, i meant the design, not the screen. i dont even care what the new nexus will be called. they can even named it Kindle Nexus if they want it, but if the spec is good, my money would go to it nevertheless.. :D:D

[Nexus 5 General] DirgeExtinction:
I dunno, I kinda like the idea of a Sony Nexus. They have a great track record of supporting and giving back to AOSP. They have great hardware as well. The Honami(codename) that the Nexus would supposedly be based off of is a beast of a phone on paper.
[Nexus 5 General] CrypticRook:
I personally would love to see a Sony nexus device. Sony is really on top of its game right now and would do an excellent job.

[Nexus 5 General] NardVa:
The Nexus 5 will have a 5 inch or bigger screen. The natural progression of the Nexus line points to the screen getting bigger.
[Nexus 5 General] RedBlueGreen:
For a concept phone it looks pretty bland. Also.. some of the specs are out of this world while some are just plain crap.. doesn't make sense even for a concept phone.

[Nexus 5 General] Sully6789:
Guess I'm not getting a Nexus 6 then, with that 6 inch screen and all. What will come after the Nexus 6 though? Nexus 7 is already taken...

Oh wait, the phones aren't following the same naming scheme as the tablets based on screen size...as someone else already pointed out with the Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus(that both had 4" screens). The LG Nexus 4 is named as such because it is, get this...the 4th Nexus Phone :eek: Good thing too, I don't think I would have room to carry around a Nexus 13.
[Nexus 5 General] quattro_rs:
And that's the worst thing to have one a mobile device. No matter how good the colors are as soon as you look at it from the slightest angle the colors are washed out !
[Nexus 5 General] RealiZms:
Well that concept looks like it came from somebody that's never seen a Nexus phone before....really a box with rounded corners? It's not even shaped like a proper Nexus ffs.

---------- Post added at 03:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 AM ----------

Why is the obvious not abundantly clear to you? Google decided(blatantly) to change the Nexus name game. 4, 7, and 10 represent the screen sizes. If you want a newer nexus the same size as your current one you'll have to wait until a newer Nexus 4 is released. The Nexus 5 will be 5+ inches you can bet the farm. They just released a newer Nexus 7. The fact that the Nexus 4 is the 4th Nexus phone is nothing more than a coincidence. By your interesting logic the Nexus 7 and 10 should be the 7th and 10th Nexus devices...They aren't. Just because they release a Nexus 5 doesn't mean they won't release another Nexus 4. 2 Nexus phone releases a year, one spring, one fall. It wouldn't hurt :good:
[Nexus 5 General] supermult:
I don´t want to offend you, but i think concepts are a waste of everyone´s time.

Yes, it is a nice render and you put alot of thought into the specs, but designing phones is a bit more difficult than just imaging pretty stuff.

- It has to meet a certain price point.

- It has to be easy to assemble.

- It has to support Google´s strategy (a.k.a. the absence of the sd-card is a feature :/ )

- Most important: You are only able to use existing parts (if no one is manufacturing a 4.6 fHD panel, you´re pretty much out of luck)

and so on..

Fan made phone concepts just lead to disappointing official phones.

[Nexus 5 General] manpildo:
I am all for concept videos or pictures as an expression of fantasy or wishes, but what's the point of making a mammoth list of imaginary specs and prices? Does that make the concept author feel like the lead engineer or smth? Sorry, not trying to diss anybody, but I just don't see the point in making long lists of specs and prices (did anybody read the whole thing?). Pictures and/or videos should suffice.

Also 4.3? Really? It's very likely they will release 5.0 with the new Nexus, so for a futuristic concept to still feature 4.3 is poor show.
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
Proof of this change? Or some crazy theory. I'll believe it when I read it from a reputable source.
[Nexus 5 General] RealiZms:
Crazy theory? They just released another nexus 7. I mean what's there for you to read? Its not rocket science. Its more than obvious.

[Nexus 5 General] Sully6789:
Oh boy, where to start with this one. How about right here:

"The fact that the Nexus 4 is the 4th Nexus phone is nothing more than a coincidence."

Re-read that to yourself and let it sink how ridiculous that sounds.

Oh, and this one:

"By your interesting logic the Nexus 7 and 10 should be the 7th and 10th Nexus devices..."

My interesting logic was that the Nexus phones aren't following the same naming scheme as the tablets...oh wait, I already said that in the VERY FIRST line of the second paragraph which you quoted but obviously didn't read...

"Oh wait, the phones aren't following the same naming scheme as the tablets based on screen size..."

Google doing a refresh of the Nexus 7 without changing the name, proves one thing: The Nexus 7 name is based on the screen size. We all knew that to begin with. That does not prove anything for the phones.

"The Nexus 5 will be 5+ inches you can bet the farm."

I have no doubt the next Nexus phone will have a 5" screen and will be called the Nexus 5. Not because it has a 5" screen, but because it is the 5th Nexus phone, and 5" screens are the norm nowadays. So, if the Nexus phone's screen size stays at 5", what will the name of the next one be? 5a, 5b, 5X? Where will it end? Saying Google (blatantly) changed the Nexus name game based on them not changing the number of the tablet(s?) who's name was based solely on its screen size, and then applying that logic to the Nexus phones, whose names have not been based on screen size, is kind of dumb and backwards. Your entire rebuttal was based on a point I already made. Good job.

I'll just repeat what I already said:

"Saying Google(blatantly) changed the Nexus name game based on them not changing the number of the tablet(s?) who's name was based solely on its screen size, and then applying that logic to the Nexus phones, whose names have not been based on screen size, is kind of dumb and backwards."

[MENTION=360756]sully[/MENTION]- I at one point thought extremely too hard about Google and their nexus numbers. Ultimately time will tell.

I often wondered how much herb an entire company has to smoke to leave an entire month off of a Calendar.

Have fun with the idea that nexus phones will be named by chronological order while tablets will be named by screen size. Please, share the the good stuff. Interesting ideas for sure. Soon enough you'll find you're wrong.

Google calls the new Nexus 7, Nexus 7 (2013). There's nothing to read, it's a fact.

Sony and Nexus is an oxymoron. Sony holds so tightly to every piece of tech they create that they manage to almost always strangle their best techs chances of success. I really don't see them being willing to open source anything.
[Nexus 5 General] hp420:
So in 5 years we're all going to carry a phone with a 10" display in our pockets and it won't be a tablet??? Use some common sense here!

also....OP: Google has REPEATEDLY shot down everyone who has asked for a removable SD card. This is never going to happen. Same as a removable battery. Your concept specs are just a pipe dream. Try actually picking specs that are actually possible. I mean....a 20MP camera???? c'mon!!!
[Nexus 5 General] icase81:
I think realistically, it will be 4.7" LCD, SnapDragon 600, 2GB RAM, 1920x1080, LTE, likely a 10-12MP rear and a 3-5MP front camera, non-removable 2100-2500mah battery, Qi charging.

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

Exactly. The Galaxy Nexus was a 4.65" screen, the Nexus 4 is a 4.7" screen. I don't think that the Galaxy Nexus was a Galaxy sized screen, was it? The Nexus S was not an S sized screen, and the Nexus One wasn't a One inch screen. Tablets come in form factors of generally 7 and 10, hence Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. Phones, don't. Phones are anywhere from 3.5 -> 5.5" with about 9 sizes in between. They'll size it based on feel and form factor, not on an arbitrary number just to meet a marketing term.
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
Thank you so much for throwing some common sense in here. The craziness was starting to stink. Phone naming is always going to be independent of tablet naming.
[Nexus 5 General] RealiZms:
Have fun with that idea
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
So tpu follow that after the nexus 5 the nexus six will have a 5.7xxx screen and nexus 7.....oh wait. It's a tablet now!!!!

Good effort, but IMO it not a concept nexus at all. You just put in all the features you wish for.

Again, 3gb RAM and octa cores aren't going to happen. The idea of a nexus device is not to include the best specs there are.
[Nexus 5 General] DirgeExtinction:
So the OP pretty much wants the Sony i1 or codename Honami as a Nexus phone.
[Nexus 5 General] hp420:
Btw, for anyone wondering, the lens g the OP is referring to is an attachment camera for androids with a telephoto lens....not built in. That means it shouldn't even be in the list because it wouldn't be the phone's camera. Also, the thing is gonna retail for $700....just the lens g camera attachment. Yeah....let me buy a $1,400 android phone :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 General] md1008:
I am in no way affiliated with Google and not confirm nor deny what thought process of naming phones but I believe the nexus was named after it's generation. Who's to say what the new phone will be. The nexus s and gnex were obviously named after Samsung. Perhaps Google will name it after the new OEM who's manufacturing it. Could be named nexus G or Nexus Options if LG makes it. I don't think that's the case since I personally believe Google is attempting to minimize OEMS involvement.

Who knows maybe the nexus one was HTC idea since the last 2 years HTC has been obsessed with the number "one". My last point that I believe that the nexus 4 not named after it's size is that the N4 is closer to 5 inches than 4. Maybe if it was 4.4 or leas I could see that being more plausible

Point is we don't know what the next gen nexus will be called. Obviously tablets are following this trend based of size but the phone is up in the air

Just because they contribute doesn't mean jack. Microsoft contributes heavily to many open source projects but you will never see Office or Windows be open sourced.

In fact many major developers contribute but do not open source their products even if they are so old they're discontinued and irrelevant.

In my thoughts Sony phones looks good and the build quality is amazing specially for the Xperia Z.

And don't get me wrong LG did an amazing job too with the Nexus 4!

I'd like to see a Sony build Nexus sometime in the future! Imagine if Sony did actually make the Nexus 5 considering their latest phone model ends with Z.

Xperia Nexus that would be able to go underwater would be cool for sure, that would be a big step for google

Google has the say on design. If they don't like it guess what? Back to the drawing board Sony. On that same note LG based the Nexus 4 off the Options G and its pretty much a box like pretty much all Sony phones. The nexus design and shape won't be changing much. Nexus=sexy
