ronthecivil Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I would rather use my existing phone that does just fine and keep the 299. Though if for some strange reason I felt I needed a smartphone it would probably be the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxi Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Great idea. Not everyone needs a supercomputer in their phone. Phones have gotten so advanced now that a prior generation, but well executed, phone should be able to do everything the average consumer needs.

Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Google phones do not have expandable memory. It enrages to no end, considering how Samsung and LG always have SD slots. I am not buying Nexus phones. It's a huge turn-off for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jovocop55 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 it's ok but i rather go with iphone 5 or samsung s4 coming out in march.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 iPhones don't have SD, ditto the new HTC 8X and Lumia 920. The price is great with or without the SD. I'd rather pay $300 for this than $800 for an iPhone or get locked into a 3 year contract paying $100/month. The price, the fact that its unlocked and the spec is what attracts me.

Pouria Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 I don't like iPhones, but they still have the option of going up to 64 GB internal, which is really good (disregarding cost). The GNexus and the Nexus 4 are maxing out at 16GB, period. Joke. HTC still offers expandable memory for its mid-end line, but I am pissed to see their flagship phones having no card slots. It's literally the one thing that's keeping me from going for Google. Everything else is, as you say, best-value. The LG Optimus G seems to have good value too. What do you think?

thelastguy Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I'm definitely tempted buy the Nexus 4 at $299, but my Nexus S is still fast enough for me. I am interested in the Nexus 7 however, though why do we pay $10 - $20 more up here? With the dollar at par it makes no sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultraman7k Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 pretty solid price for that phone, especially with no contract. any word on what kind of SIM it will use? will it be micro? nano? regular? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Ambien Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 It has plenty of benefits, and looks like a pretty low cost with Jellybean, but it lacking LTE is an enormous turnoff for me, and should be for anyone in LTE coverage area. Google says it was to reduce costs and size but it's only about half an inch smaller than the large Samsung Note, this is no justification for omitting LTE network access.

CIA Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Looks good! Especially for ppl that don't have the funds to buy a s3 or iPhone 5. I wouldn't get it because of the lack of LTE and only 16GB. Anyone else looking forward to see the new bb phones? Lol I think I'll give rim one last chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pouria Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Meh. Streetview already has pretty much the whole world already. They are just getting people to pay to fill in the gaps for them on that. Why pay for labour when your customers will do it for free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
