I have no problem with an 8Gb, as long as there's a 16, 32 (and in a perfect world 64) Seriously how hard is it?

I think that maybe a mk1 dev model and the release one's will be shiny-er and more sparkly.

I dived in with the last two and will probably do the same it the spec is up to scratch.

Negative, though I wish I had the skills to do so.

To big, do not want.

And 8GB, lol.

Robbo · 11 Oct 2012 at 16:52

In LG we trust.

Or not.

The more I see and read the more reason I find the give this a miss :eek:

They need to have the screen coming to the edge of the of the phone, not those stupid bezels!

I'm still waiting to see what will happen and have my fingers crossed for the multi-manufacturer offerings as I really hope to see a HTC and Moto Nexus, there's still a chance of this given the various 4.2 server logs that are appearing.

I wondered what a phone like a Samsung TV would be like to use given almost the entire front face would be touch sensitive. Would that work or would you just end up accidentally hitting stuff all the time? God knows. What I do know is a phone that just looks like an almost bezel-less LCD would look effin' badass, and I'd buy one instantly.

Theres no point in them releasing multiple halo phones though, so any other models would need to be higher or lower spec'ed, and what manufacturer is going to want to build a phone for Google, but only be able to make the cheap one?

thecremeegg · 11 Oct 2012 at 20:01

And I was holding out for this as well

Now what do I do?

Great article here. Totally sums up how I feel. Software might be ace but LG and Google have totally dropped the ball on industrial design:

If the phone launches with just Android 4.1.2 I may as well just get the HOX+ and crowbar that onto it.

Thing pushing me towards apart from the design (which is nice but glass

). But if the rumors of 8GB are right then DOA

kona786 · 11 Oct 2012 at 22:42

8GB! - you just can't make that shizz up!

GNex2 pls.

Sumanji · 11 Oct 2012 at 22:47

8GB AND no LTE !!

I bet you're the kind of guy that would **** a person in the *** and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a *****-*****.

stoosh · 11 Oct 2012 at 23:07

And it gets worse....there is NO GNex2

The rumoured GT-i9260 which everyone was hoping for to be the GNex2 is actually called the Galaxy Premier.

Full details see link below

We might have to resign ourselves into thinking that there will only be one Nexus device released this year and it's going to be the LG.

If that's the case, I'm going to bail on the LG.
