Nexus Prime

I've saved a place for you in the queue.
Are the specs actually confirmed yet though?
I'm quite tempted, it looks like it'll be either an sgs2 with minor tweaks, or with a better screen, either way it's unlikely to be worse and it'll have stock android (and more specifically ICS) and that's going to be very very tempting

That's good for him!
Looking forward to the 11th, I'll no doubt have to get one of these (though I'm apprehensive about the screen). Especially if the new iPhone is a 4S and not the 5 that most people are hoping for.
After all the waiting it would be ridiculously if it wasn't an ip5, would be some what of a stupid move as a lot of people wouldn't want a very slight upgrade. Hope it is actual an ip5 just in-case the prime isn't as good as its said to be.
Indeed, it would be a massive mistake on Apple's part, but we'll see.

Yeah, just 2 days to go, I'm actual excited to see a new iPhone, then a few more days and we can see what the Nexus Prime has to offer. Should know what phone I will be getting next soon.
Not yet but I'm not too bothered. It will be good whatever the spec and my Nexus S could do with a change.
well i reckon i wont lose out to much, i paid under £300 with cash back for my Sg2, and i reckon i should get about that back, just top up the rest....
A. i want a stock google phone... sick of rooting and removing unwanted tosh
B. i'm a android fanboy

That's quite true.
I think nearly all Android users are praying the Nexus Prime comes out with some seriously killer specs so Google finally have a one size fits all Android device. The Nexus S wasn't quite good enough for that IMO.
You and me both (and probably a lot of other people too).
After owning a Desire and SGS2 (effectively different versions Google Nexus and a Google Prime) I am pretty sure that I will stick with Google stock phones in the future. All I seem to do is put CM7 on so that I can remove HTC and Samsung's completely idiotic bluetooth stacks in order to connect a Wii Remote and PS3 pad for emulators when working away for work.
That plus overclocking for the N64/PSOne emulation.

yeah i agree, i had the HTC desire at the time the Nexus S came out and spec wise was not worth swapping, even if the spec is the same i will swap this time!
Yeah, if the spec comes out as the rumours have said (basically anything above those of the SGS2) and there's not something critically awful about it, I can see myself pressing the buy button.
Although, I guess there's a chance the IP5 could come and blow it all away!?

Hard to say at the moment, the iP5 will be more than good enough but it's not going to have industry leading specs I imagine. Then again, I'd rather have a 'retina' screen at a high(er) res than a SAMOLED personally.
That's assuming there is even an iP5, it's all a bit up in the air at the moment...
IP5, 4S, same thing really, the next one released.
I can't see if convincing me over this though, it would have to be something very special!
Well yes, but the iPhone 5 would be a brilliant looking (if the case designs/mock-ups are anything to go by) redesign of the entire phone, with a larger screen.
A 4S will just have the quicker processor, improved camera, 1080p and look exactly the same. It won't be converting anyone over, an iP5 probably would.
Ok I see what you mean, I was just meaning to me that whichever they go with makes little difference. I'm far more interested in the specs of the device, which is why I can't see myself going for it.
Edit - But either way, lets not drag this discussion into this thread, this ones for the new Nexus!
Who knows at the moment. When the Nexus S appeared it was only initially available from CPW.
Didn't Google sell it directly or was that US only?
