Buy an iPhone or a Galaxy phone. Really I'm amazed at all the Nexus owners that just don't get Android. A home button? GTFOHWTBS.

The Optimus G was an ugly phone with the best specs and Google sculpted the Nexus 4 from it. In my opinion it's still the best looking device on the market.
[Nexus 4 General] IRX120:
I was just speculating, I have no issues with the on screen nav keys, just a home button would be nifty. I love nexus devices, I have a nexus 4 galaxy nexus and had a nexus 7, I just like changes sometimes. IPhone and galaxy suck in my opinion as well

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Who makes it is of no significance when it comes to features. If the active notifications is a feature of Android 5.0(or whatever version the next nexus is released with) then it will come standard on the phone.

You guys do know that nexus devices are platforms to launch SOFTWARE.

This thread just has NOOB written all over it.

Why do you need/want a home button?
[Nexus 4 General] IRX120:
I don't really need one, just like a capacitive circle on the notification would be neat, not really necicary though

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
I personally just want to see google up the ante as far as features go in the next release. Cyanogenmod, AOKP, Carbon.....all these roms have fantastic features(some very simple) that should be implemented in the next version of Android.

After being with Android since Eclair it's just kind of getting old. Google just releases a super bare bones OS and leaves it up to the user to try to find an app to achieve something simple that should've been included in the first place...

I mean really Google...Is there any good got damn reason we can't have the battery percentage in the status bar stock?

Or is there any good reason we can't pick and choose what quick settings tiles we want to be displayed?

I really want to see Google take Android to the next level. More features, same sexy raw look.

This thread should be named "What do you want to see in Android 5.0?" as the next Nexus features will rely on it. Not hardware. Plenty of GNex owners will experience what the new Nexus will feature :)

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Glass exudes a premium feel. It's slightly more expensive than plastic but is much less than carbon fiber, kevlar, or aluminum. Aside from that the Nexus 5 has already been rumored to have a glass back. I use a case so I really could care less what the back is made from.
[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
An expected response from an iPhone user....Lol..

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Well one of the main reasons I pay attention to what Motorola does is because it's a Google company. So it stands to reason that any new useful feature implemented on a new Moto device could eventually be implemented in stock android or AOSP..Ultimately to our Nexus

It's a situation where I think everyone benefits.

I personally hope the Moto X is a homerun. More people need to use a raw or close to stock version of Android with on screen keys to really get an idea of what they've been missing by using Touchwiz crap, Sense crap, or any other overlay crap. They're all vomit ugly

There is no substitute for the beautiful awesomeness and unmatched fluidity of raw android rocking onscreen keys. As it was intended:good:

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Dual speakers- Useful

waterproof- a nice yet unnecessary feature

wireless charging- A convenient and useful option to have

scratch proof- A convenient and standard feature

dual led camera- Nice yet not necessary feature

HDMI out- Made obsolete by the advent of wireless display technology we currently have at our disposal.

WiFi ac- It's an update away

Led light- ? wha......if you're referring to a notification light it's considered necessary by most people

Glass back- Serves no purpose other than to look good and to cover the back of the phone. Both of which it does.

An Octo-core processor- Totally and completely useless from a cost, design, and functionality standpoint. Nevermind that 4 cores are only running at once. Seriously the S4 pro in our Nexus 4's is more than enough. Aside from that users running our same version of Android using a Nexus S and a GNex( single and dual core) Don't have any issues with speed or OS smoothness.
[Nexus 4 General] AcmE85:
32gb storage and a better (faster + lowlight) camera would be more than enough for me.

Also go Full-HD on 4.7'

They could also try to shrink the bezel at the top and bottom.

Stereo frontfacing speakers would take up too much space if you ask me.

they could maybe try to put the speakers on the top and bottom rim,

so that putting the phone on the back does not decrease the volume anymore.
[Nexus 4 General] Cream$ickleHJ:
Front speaker will kick fkin arse
[Nexus 4 General] Ace42:
Oh yeah I meant notification light, I like using custom colors for apps.

As for the 8 cores I wanted to try big little for myself, but I feel it would be more useful in a laptop/tablet environment. And I've used JB on slower devices and they're relatively quick and not bad at all. I only use two cores @1.2 daily on my nexus 4 and don't feel more power is needed. Though I don't actually need more power since I don't normally play anything besides subway surfer for a few minutes.

Things the next gen nexus seriously needs are:

Super precise/fast tracking GPS

Bright enough in direct sunlight

Anti glare

Loud in call volume

3k-4k battery

Zero shutter like to capture important moments

All lte bands

Same lvl of software optimisation as moto X

Always listening available

8-128Gb solutions

Good camera sensor not high mp

[Nexus 4 General] gd6noob:
while all the suggestions are great.. This would project the Nexus line into a higher tier phone and for those prices, I think there would be better phones...

Google wouldnt want it to be priced high and they wouldnt want to loose money on it... Which is why I think the N4 doesnt have all the lastest and greatest parts so that they can price it very competitive... Google's goal here, dont forget is to get gain Apple's marketshare from the iOS platform first and foremost, not to make a highend device to sell to everyone....
[Nexus 4 General] boltthrower56:
The phone that i suggested up there could sell for less than 650 $ which was the ubuntu edge's pricepoint. Since they actually started the crowdfunding , i think we can safely assume that they did some talking with the manufacturers and got some hypothetical prices.

Now , 650 $ is the pricepoint of galaxy s4 , now in the market.

With a good advertising campaign they could make a lot of money from an extreme spec smartphone.

I mean Google Glass is a good concept but it's useless in this state , if they actually sold some google glasses , i know for a fact that they can sell those phones.

We need choices , Google doesn't have to imitate every good decision that has been made by rival companies. Making a google device ? Not fine. Making 5 Google Devices ? Now that's cool , and it works for everybody.
[Nexus 4 General] wargasm009:
If love to see the internals of the LG G2 make it to the next Nexus...

That aside, the other thing I'd love to see happen in the Nexus line is what Google did with the Chrome book Pixel...

As in, the best absolute quality in display, build materials etc... To show what is possible if there is no limit.
[Nexus 4 General] uchihakurtz:
My ideal next Nexus spec:

-4.3-4.5 inch 720p AMOLED screen, not large yet sharp and being AMOLED means more SOT.

-Snapdragon S800 Processor with 2 GB of RAM

-32 GB version availability, 16 GB is not enough especially in places where cloud isn't reliable, like Indo land.

-13 mpx camera with OIS for sharp photos and stable video recording.

-Side or front speaker so I can put that phone down without losing sound.

-Double tap to wake.

-And most important of all, a huge ass battery, preferably above 3000 mag

This would be perfect for me.

[Nexus 4 General] eksasol:
I want more space personally, but the point is if they have micro SD slot they would have to pay Microsoft royalty (allegedly), deal with patent issues and run into security issues (which is why Nexus devices gave full device encryption). I think the next Nexus should have 32gb minimum, inexcusable to be any lower at this stage.

Would love to see a notification light. This is the first Android phone I have used without one and do not understand why they would not have put one on this device or any device being released today.

Having to turn the screen on every time to see if I have any messages gets annoying. Anyone have any tricks or apps or anything that helps with notifying you there is a message on your phone?

Light Flow works perfectly on the N4 bro.

It has notification light right below the screen, just be sure to check pulse notification light in settings ---> display. Problem is only that by default timing between two pulses is very long- about 10 seconds (so maybe u didn't get to catch actual pulse, light), but this can be fixed by flashing rom with custom led control (cm or PA for example) or using lightflow as suggested.

N4, Cataclysm+Franco
[Nexus 4 General] eman3316@optonline.net:
That was it....I figured it out after doing some searching. I did not think one had to turn it on as I have never had to do this with the past 6 Android devices I have owned. Every device I have plugged in always showed a charging light and all notifications. That is why it was not showing no matter what app I was trying as well.

Well now that this is settled, I would like to see more internal memory and a better camera. Not much more you can really ask for. Everything else is pretty perfect. Of course you can always ask for a better screen but that won't change the funcionality of the device.

I will say I am pretty happy with the camera though and was getting scared from reading all the negative comments about it. It was much better then I was expecting and soooo much better then the GNEX camera which is what I thought this was going to compare to. It is not as good as my GS3 but I do not think it is that much far off either.
[Nexus 4 General] Cream$ickleHJ:
I thought this was the nexus 4 forum?
[Nexus 4 General] Tomatot-:
From the most important to the less important

-Memory : I'd like to buy one with at least 32Go or maybe even 64Go (that would be perfect but maybe also too expensive). I don't even hope for sd card slot, Google is against this technology.

-Battery : a bigger battery or battery optimisations. Nexus 4's battery ain't that bad but sometimes it's not enough when I'm using it a lot in a day, and it's bad. I'd like something like at least 6h screen on.

-keep an IPS display

-better overall specs (about performance) but I guess this is a sure fact.

-Better camera

[Nexus 4 General] Danny.ns:
Basicly what i think could be improved with the N4;

-32gb option (pls)

-5" 1080p (since the n4 is my first ever smartphone, i thought i would think 4.7" would be huge, but i actually wouldnt mind a slightly bigger screen now)

-S800 (more performance is never wrong albeit the s4 pro has performed perfectly)

-Cooler running device; the N4 really heats up.. gaming or watching videos for some time and the device (using stock kernel) really feels HOT to the touch (despite CPU temps being OK at around 55C).

-properly calibrated screen this time.
[Nexus 4 General] ChriKn:
Personally, a good finished phone (build quality, but also no big software bugs like wifi, Bluetooth or awful color calibration) with a better camera quality, LTE and a slightly bigger battery / storage would really be enough to me.

There is no need for a bigger screen or resolution or faster processor. A properly optimised OS and good working eyes already solve these problems...

Aluminium back, good camera, 16:9 IPS LCD screen (Keep at 4.7 inches), 720p is alright as long as they get the colors right, smoother scrolling, 120 Hz screen (Probably not but pulling down the notification drawer annoys me so much because I can see the frames. Its not just the Nexus 4 either, I see it on my sister's iPhone 5 on iOS 6 and my brothers on iOS 7, the Moto X, the DROID DNA, and the HTC One. Its almost as if the drawer skips pixels as it goes down, it doesn't look smooth), clickier buttons, better DAC, bigger battery/optimized power management, front facing BoomSound spec speakers, either ditch the chrome bezel or make it metal.
