Oh i didnt know the Nexus 5s cam would be downgraded I thought they just changed the housing/position (which is much better imo the g2s rear looks bleegh)

Yeah I was hoping Sony would come out with a next gen like 6months down the road or something :/

After all they just released the Z1F for docomo :okay:

Jeez now I'm torn. I'll be upgrading from an iPhone 4, and although I think it would be nice to use a larger screen like the Z1 or Nexus 5, I'm not sure how well I could use them one handed or carry them in my front pocket.

Z1F is the first time I've seen a smaller Android phone with top end specs.

yeah Im not a fan of giant screens either but unfortunately it doesnt seem like we'll be getting the z1f so :/ unless its a delayed release

$100 for the 3kmAh battery is worth it given that it's non-removable
form factor hasn't changed much from Samsung's GNex from 2011
I'm waiting for next year's model...wonder if Sony or Moto will carry the torch tho I'd love HTC to give the Nexus line another spin.

Still don't understand why the camera hump is so huge and ugly.

If the 32gig 3000mAh version is real and around $400, I'm definitely buying.

if there's a camera hump that means it'll be really high resolution, probably 13 megapixel?

surprised they haven't cut down on the chin/lower bezel for phones with soft keys...the xperia lineup has a stripe/bar LED light that they should employ instead of the little round LED
i guess its retained so you can better hold your phone in landscape

didnt the leaked specs revealed its an 8MP with OIS?

Not sure what the leaks said, but it would be crazy to have a 'lump' with an 8 MP sensor.

maybe it has cancer?:badpokerface:

OIS adds depth to a camera sensor as well so it may be that

Its not a matter of MPx either btw for whether there's a hump on the camera what matters most is the size of the sensor

the LG G2's sensor is only 1/3" aka TINY (same as htc one, iphone5s, note3 smaller than iphone5)

Nokia 808 is 1/1.2"
Lumia 1020 is 1/1.5"
Nokia N8 1/1.83" (12mpx)
The Sony Z1 is 1/2.3" (20.7mpx)
Nokia N95 is 1/2.5" (5mpx)
^^ mpx isn't n sensor size aren't related

I don't care, it looks fine. More than good enough for a phone. That matters more than a bunch of paper specs, I'll leave that to the fanboys to argue over ;)

was trying to explain why there may be a hump and that mpx doesn't tell why there's a hump or not. not which is better :P

the Note 3 takes better looking videos than any of the other devices but its sensor is tiny too

No, the resoultion itself doesn't cause the hump.

But with the sensors LG use, the 13MP one is about 1 or 2mm bigger than the 8MP and thus requires a hump. That is why the N4 used the 8MP - it doesn't have a hump, while the 13MP LG Optimus G does.

I don't know if LG makes an 8MP sensor with OSI but I doubt the Nexus 5 will have an 8MP sensor if there's a hump.

Just as important as the sensor size, it could be an upgrade in lens or image stabilization.

I doubt it's the new samsung camera though :(.

Why would u think that an LG manufactured Nexus 5 would have the new Samsung camera on it? Let alone your link says most likely Note 4/S5 from Samsung would be getting it next year.

I'm not saying that it would. What I was saying is that the hump from the camera could be something other than a larger sensor.

Fuck that back looks ugly. And finger print galore.

That camera hump is ugly. I hope there's some good cases being released for this phone.

Doh I was hoping they'd move the headphone port to the bottom

Backing is supposed to be a rubbery feeling material like the Nexus 7 tablet.

Man, tomorrow is going to be a big disappointment if the rumours aren't true and there's no Nexus 5 annoucement.

Looks like nothing going down today. New rumour is October 31 announcement. Also, pricing structure rumours have changed, with a leak about a new Nexus 4 LTE model.

Nexus 4 LTE 16gb $299
Nexus 4 LTE 32gb $349
Nexus 5 16gb $399
Nexus 5 32gb $449

Nexus 5 to be priced at $399, Nexus 4 LTE model in tow - GSMArena.com news

What! Google/LG pulled an APPLE.

Enables LTE chip in Nexus 4, sells as brand new phone.
