Not going near any 6inch device, no matter if its called Nexus.

I prefer to have a tablet at 10 inch.

[Nexus 4 General] ariciselman:
Nexus 6 should be max 5.5... 6 inches smart phone is useless, According to me
[Nexus 4 General] matrix0886:
Nope. As much as I love the nexus line, that is just way too damn big for me. If I can't operate it one handed, I don't want it. If anything, I plan to finally move up to the Nexus 5, and the's max size I want in a phone. Any bigger and I say "thanks, but no thanks."
[Nexus 4 General] cyberon:
According to all the rumors, the Nexus 6 will have a 3200+ mAh battery, i just hope the QHD display won't eat it too fast...
[Nexus 4 General] punkmonkey1984:
Way to big. Ordered a meizu mx4. Mostly for the camera. I still think that maybe to big.
[Nexus 4 General] Dark Emotion:
To me, N4 is a phone and N6 is not. 5.9" is just crazy, who knows, maybe Google brings something in normal screen size (5" or less) alongside N6.
[Nexus 4 General] paul c:
Pro's: performance (good enough for a couple of years, looking at the specs). Oh, and 4G in Europe.

Con's: size. A big screen sounds great, but portability and one-handed use.

Looks like the terminal will have excellent processing power and RAM plus a big battery so it'll be good for a couple of years, but like everyone else - will this thing fit in a trouser pocket and can it be used 1-handed?

That last point may well force the UI to offer options so that eg status bar can be positioned at the bottom/navbar on the bottom left or right (just saying). But it's a big piece of kit....
[Nexus 4 General] prog19:
This thing doesn't even fit my backpack.

I'm a Brazilian without English Course, sorry and be comprehensive :)
[Nexus 4 General] Neuromansa:
I was ready for the switch, couldn't wait...but if the N6 is really gonna be that big I don't think I will buy it. It's too much of a jump from the N4 in terms of size.

If Google really comes out with just the 6 inches version, I think I will choose between the MotoX and the G3. Or maybe even an N5 if I will find one.
[Nexus 4 General] Almayce:
I actually think I'm gonna skip this one. As European guy I couldn't picture the size in inches(do it America, I beg you, switch to metric system like the rest of the world! :D). Now seeing the two in comparison I must say that it's way too big for me. Nexus 4 is just about the right size, fits in the hand, you can control it with 1 hand. I never found myself wanting a tablet or phablet for that matter. It's phone, laptop or desktop pc for me. I like the keyboard very much to give it up :D
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
I'm definitely up for a bigger phone. My Nexus 4 is the biggest phone I've owned, and I'd love a big phablet to use at home for gaming and reading eBooks, and for traveling when I don't want to lug around my laptop. Obviously, I'll be keeping my Nexus 4 to use when I don't want a gigantic slab in my pocket (I want a Sony Z3 Compact for that, but that's several months away for me).

Maybe I'll even pick up a Nexus 5 when the price drops because the 6 is out.

One thing I'm wondering about the Nexus 6 is that, if it comes running Android L out of box, will we be able to "downgrade" it to 4.4.4 KitKat? Obviously, with previous Nexus phones, downgrading to a version prior to its release made no sense, but for those of us that love what the Xposed framework can do for us, I have a feeling 4.4.4 will be ported to the Nexus 6.

Rumor is there'll be a 32GB version for $419USD, and 64GB for $449. If that turns out to be the case, I'm only about $100-150 short of affording the 64GB, which I should be able to save by the time it's available in November.
[Nexus 4 General] biron_w:
If the phone does turn out to be 5.9" like most people suspect then I'm out.

I'll be a little disappointed as I was hoping to go from my N4 to an N6 but that screen is FAR too big. It's near enough phablet size and I want a phone not a phablet.

I'll probably just pick up an LG G2 instead. 5.2" is the perfect sized screen IMO.
[Nexus 4 General] cyberon:
The G3 and MotoX are also my other options but i'm waiting for the price. If the Nexus 6 arrives with a decent price it's a hard choice.
[Nexus 4 General] BassBlaster:
Looks like the next Nexus won't be inheriting the good looks of the GNex/N4/N5 (mostly N4 lol). That's it, i'm out. Can always flash an AOSP Rom on a phone if I want the Nexii feel again.
[Nexus 4 General] Zehlek:
I will switch when it comes down in price from Fido
[Nexus 4 General] cyberon:
You won't get the same experience even on AOSP, had a Galaxy S2 running CM and sold it after two months.

Lot's of bugs and frustration.
[Nexus 4 General] cenwesi:
I prefer the G3
[Nexus 4 General] Crisisx1:
Purchased my 64GB OnePlus One couple days ago.

Sorry nexus 6
[Nexus 4 General] guille26:
My nexus 4 has died. Would you get a moto x 2014? Maybe it is too expensive for what it is and I am not sure if it worths it.

I tried to get a Nexus 5 but it is difficult to get since it seems to be out of stock everywhere in my country.

I also tried to get an invitation for One Plus One but they seem to be difficult to get.

I really don't like nexus 6 and I am looking for a 500€ phone, any suggestions?
[Nexus 4 General] acejavelin:
The 2013 Moto X Developer model is $230 on eBay, new... Or the Moto G is nice and easy to get, it can tied you over for the short term and holds its value very well, you can probably sell it for 60-70% of the purchase cost after a year of use.
[Nexus 4 General] plasticarmyman:
Ordered my N6 blue 32gb from T-mo last night....they say it'll be delivered by the 28th, so i'm hoping i'll have it by the 1st for sure
[Nexus 4 General] Cem0:
I think I'll stay on my nexus 4 and get the nexus 9 as my tablet, no need for a big phablet like that.
[Nexus 4 General] paul c:
Well, looking at all the responses, it seems size is the "big" concern.

I think I'll cut a piece of wood to size, if I can find a thin enough piece in my garage, and see how it fits in the trouser pocket and the shirt pocket for that matter too.
[Nexus 4 General] hp420:
Yup...next Weds!!! Get ready, Shamu!!! Here I come!!
[Nexus 4 General] MikusP:
5.2"

Not sure if this'll be accurate, but GSM Arena has the Nexus 6 (Motorola Nexus X) listed as having a 5.2 Inch screen. A massive step down from 6 Inch, and having owned a 5" phone before I wouldn't be put off by the idea. Still, have to wait and see what the real thing holds in store! :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] biron_w:
Some sites say 5.2" and some say 5.9" but the majority think it will be 5.9". I hope it isn't.
[Nexus 4 General] RASTAVIPER:
This page haven't been updated concerning screen size since 1-2 months ago.

I wouldn't rely much on that.

[Nexus 4 General] haelmchen:
6“ is way to big. Going to keep the N4 until it breaks and then say goodbye to Nexus when there are only tablets as phones.
[Nexus 4 General] sadoway:
I want the bigger screen.

I love my tablet, but two devices doing the same thing sucks.

I think it may take some getting used to. But I have big hands so it won't be Mich of a problem for me.
[Nexus 4 General] brsclkr:
if its really 6 inches, then i say;

"bye Nexus, hello Moto X"
[Nexus 4 General] Aaron_Knowles:
As others have said, if its the smaller variant, sure. But I have problems as it is using my n⁴ already, I like to use my phone in one hand, I very rarely use both hands and I struggle holding my n⁴ sometimes.

We'll see, though.
[Nexus 4 General] qaz2453:
was going to get a Nexus 6 until i got the invite for a oneplus one :)

would love to have both haha :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] -Zteam-:
Way to big for me, so unless Google is not releasing a smaller Nexus phone to, my next phone will probably be the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact.

But before that I will keep my Nexus 4 and check out Android L of course. :D
[Nexus 4 General] oxxshadow:
congrats dude! I got a One plus one too, but plan to return it. too man issues.
[Nexus 4 General] qaz2453:
thanks :D and sorry to hear you have issues with your device :(
[Nexus 4 General] dr_AllCOM3:
I have a Nexus 4 with Android L and I can't think of any feature that would make me switch to another phone. Are there even new features?
[Nexus 4 General] BassBlaster:
That's pretty much dependent on the phone, too. Exynos is harder to develop for than Snapdragon and (now obsolete) OMAP chipsets. I had a Galaxy SL and it ran CM just fine. Bugs were fixed very quickly.

The only reason I want a new phone is because my Nexus 4 is crapping out on me. 25% of the screen doesn't respond to touch (started a week ago), power button not working properly anymore (even after trying the fix on XDA), back glass cracked (from temperature change!). A great phone that would have lasted for years more, if only it's build quality could keep up with its processing power...
[Nexus 4 General] alphatia:
Nexus 6 will be released this month
[Nexus 4 General] bobbytomorow:
No need to upgrade yet, our Nexus still runs anything I throw at it with ease plus it is the perfect size in my opinion.
[Nexus 4 General] wolfen69:
I'm on the fence about the N6. I think 5.2" would have been perfect.
[Nexus 4 General] NardVa:
The Nexus 6 having a 5.2 or 5.5 inch screen doesn't make sense when the new Moto X has a 5.2 inch screen. Why would Motorola make two similar phones and compete against themselves. Motorola probably wanted to release a phablet and decided to use the Nexus brand to push it.
[Nexus 4 General] BxingFetus:
Seeing as quite a few posts are about battery life, I've heard that Motorola will also have their turbo charge system as part of the Nexus 6 feature list. For me that's one of the reasons I'll be getting a 6. I love my 4 but I could use a new toy.
[Nexus 4 General] murtazaaksoy:
5.9" display is just toooo big for me. I always thought I'd buy the new nexus but just because of the size of display I'm not gonna buy it.
[Nexus 4 General] a g bell:
Phablet no thanks yuck! looks like l will go from 4 to 5
[Nexus 4 General] MigueTK:
Too big and too simple

Like most other people in this thread, there's no way I'd get this phone if it were to be 5.9 inches, that's just way too big! The reason why I skipped out on the N5 was because the phone looked way too simple and plain and was an incremental upgrade IMO. I mean OIS for the camera is nice but I don't take many pictures and the camera has always been the weakest point in the Nexus line. I just couldn't stand how simple stock JB was on my N4, I mean come on the front LED notification light was the same for everything! Software I could deal with but not hardware. I think the N6 is going to be just like the N5, ugly as all hell and too simple just the way google likes it. As for build quality on the N4, I've had no problems what so ever. I bought a sentinel glass protector for the back and the Ringke fusion case with a plastic screen protector for the front. Idk how you guys carry your phones but I can't have mine naked. I'd like to get an Xperia compact, seems like a nice little square phone, or the new Moto X. Sorry for the wall of text but that's just my opinion man.

I believe the Nexus 6 has to be a scrap Android Silver product/idea or maybe Google decided to go with the Android Silver idea but kept the Nexus name. I have always wanted a Motorola Nexus phone and really wanted to buy the 6 but the price and size is gonna make me have another great year with the my N4. If the N6 was 5.2 screen, with the same specs and a 150 bucks less, I would be throwing my money at Google.

I was going to get N5 when the price drops but don't see it happening now. With shockingly high price of N6 I think they will just keep selling N5 at the current price. N6 is just ridiculous both in terms of price and size.

I used a One Plus One for a week, then had to switch back to my Nexus 4. Loved the phone, but it had 1 huge problem, reception was simply horrid! Many users are experiencing this too, its listed as the 3rd most reported issue on Cyanogenmod's Jira. Maybe I was unlucky, but their warranty and RMA process is also a drag. If you get a perfect phone, keep it, but I am not sure if its worth the risk anymore. But now with the Nexus 6 being so huge, I will probably keep my Nexus 4 to see what comes out in the future. I think that Google chose the 6 inch size because it wanted to complete the Nexus collection, all it was missing was a phablet. I hope they release a refreshed Nexus 5 some time at Google IO or I might end up with the Moto X.
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
Regarding the "why" of so large a screen, remember that the Nexus line is intended for developers. It gives devs nearly the comfort of working on a tablet, but with full telephony abilies.

Regarding the $650 price, the

only

source I can find for this figure is from T-Mobile's news blog. Remember that T-Mobile had much higher initial costs on both the Nexus 4 and 5 when purchased through them. When first available, T-Mobile's "retail" price for the 16GB N4 was $550. Yes, $550. They sold it for $500 though, then later $450 and $400. If my research is correct, T-Mobile's initial "retail" price of the 16GB was $480, but sold it for $450, and now sell it (or did, I can't find it on their website now) for $400. Compared this to the $350/$400 prices for the same models from Google Play Store. Hell, Best Buy sells the Nexus 5 32GB for $550.

So I'm betting (hoping) that the Google Play Store price won't be so damn high. It could easily be $100-150, and maybe even $200 less than this MSRP price. Maybe this is all a ploy from Google to hit us with initial sticker shock, then drop the real price on us, so an inflated (over previous Nexus devices) doesn't seem as drastic.

EDIT: Right after posting this, I find this on Motorola's news blog. Crud. Still, I'm hopeful. If I'm wrong, and the phone costs $650/700, I'm not sure I'll get one. Definitely not initially, maybe after some reviews that confirm this is an awesome device. I do want something massive, but for $250 I can get the ZTE ZMAX from T-Mobile, or maybe just a used 32GB Nexus 5 from Swappa (not massive, but still with awesome development and better specs than my N4).

If my suspicious are right, I'll be pre-ordering one a soon as available.
[Nexus 4 General] monkeypaws:
Google doesn't actively advertise nexus as for developers. Maybe that was true at one point but hasn't been the case for a while
[Nexus 4 General] spupuz:
i like N6 and i want it but actually it costs too much!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
Have you ever held a Moto X? Yeah, it's ".41 inches thick", but that's at its thickest. The back is curved, and at the edges, it's quite narrow. The 2014 Moto X and the Nexus 6 look like they're even narrower at the edges (judging by pictures). The curves (it curves narrower in the lower half too) will make it fit better in the hand (and in your pants) too.
[Nexus 4 General] Themindbuddah:
Contract runs out in Jan! So will be upgrading to the 6! Been meaning to jump to a phablet! So perfect timing for me!
[Nexus 4 General] NardVa:
Google messed up by giving the Nexus 6 to Motorola. Motorola could have made the Nexus 6 smaller, but the phone would compete with the Moto X 2nd Gen. The Nexus 6 is basically Motorola's entry into the phablet market. Samsung shyed away from making a Nexus to compete with the Galaxy line. The Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus was a joke. LG really stepped up to the plate making the Nexus 4 and 5. Both phones were on par with LG's competing phones.
[Nexus 4 General] ctrlaltdemolish:
I was waiting for the N6 to drop to finally make the switch, and in the process I managed to convince myself that I could handle a giant phone. However, since I saw the price, I immediately started looking into the OPO and managed to get my hands on an invite. It's currently pending shipment and I gotta say I'm pretty excited about it.
[Nexus 4 General] Roastmeat:
Definately no way i'm getting the 6.

>Expensive

>Too big

Honestly, any screen above 5" should not be considered a phone. A phone should be portable.

If I want a big screen, I could buy a tablet.

If I were to upgrade (my N4 is still brand spanking new to me and does not underpreform anywhere), it would probably be the Sony Z3 compact in a year or so when the price drops.
