Nexus 6 is gonna be a shitty fucking phablet. I FUCKING HATE THAT FORM FACTOR SO FUCKING MUCH ARRRRRGGGGGH

Guess I'm gonna get a moto x 2014

google

phablets

[Tasty]

Not a fan myself. Looks to be a solid phone though.

Moto X is still a great choice. Lollipop is gonna be hot.

[Human Snorenado]

Looks fine to me

you mad

I GUESS YOU HAVE BIG FUCKING MONGLOID HANDS

SOME OF US ARE CURSED WITH DAINTY LADY HANDS, ESCH

[TakingBackSunday]

Wayyyy to big.  The nexus 5 was so hot  :'(

[Pringo]

I wish phone manufacturers would go back to 4.X" screen sizes. I find even my Nexus 4 is a tad bit too big for my liking. I'd love a ~4.5" Nexus with minimal bezel but it looks like something like that ain't happening.

[CajoleJuice]

Definitely way too fucking big. But like you said, Creepy, there's the Moto X.

I actually have dainty lady hands, and I'm using them to type on my 1520 phablet. Pussy.

[Human Snorenado]

I'M OLD AND HAVE CARPEL TUNNEL

[lennedsay]

Did I mention I have a condition affecting my hands, similar to carpal tunnel, only surgery isn't an option?

Pussy.

[lennedsay]

On a serious note... My husband has the One Plus One, and its kinda perfect. If I could've gotten one, I would've, but I had just picked up my gigantophone and we only had one invite.

I only went for this one because I wanted the newest WP I could get. It's huge but I got used to it within a day or two. (pause)

[fistfulofmetal]

not a fan of the curvyness. i like the edges of the nexus 5 plus the soft plastic back is cool too.

We still love you, its ok. Gotta get a small phone and make your hands look big and meaty.

[Human Snorenado]

FIVE INCHES IS PERFECTLY REASONABLE (pause)

I'm with Charlie Brown, phones are gettin too damn big. It's like they're just getting lazy and want more space for batteries, chipsets, etc. I really don't get the trade off of not being able to put it in a pocket comfortably, is it for people with bad vision? That's what it always makes me think of, phones for old people

Just buy piece of shit Android phones (Redundant. -ed.), mine is pretty tiny and I didn't spend a buncha scratch on it.

[Human Snorenado]

I'm gonna get a 2014 Moto X. Probably tomorrow.

[Tasty]

It's a good choice. Get the wood back one.

[CatsCatsCats]

My 97¢ 5c is perfect for me

[El Babua]

Not too impressed with the Nexus 6. Hopefully the 5 gets Android M, otherwise I might be forced to upgrade next year.

[pilonv1]

Why couldn't they just update the Nexus 5

[Reb]

Andy, where is my Nexus 7 2014 update?

Seriously, do I have to take 9 inches if I want a new Nexus tablet?

[Joe Molotov]

not a fan of the curvyness.

We all just gonna let this one slide?

Nexus 7 (2013) is still available to purchase at reasonable prices.

The Nexus 9 won't be much bigger in size since the aspect ratio is going to be 4:3.

The N7 has been removed from the site.

Google just needs to buy Nintendo now and I can go full Google.

[Tasty]

There's one day a year new Nexus devices are announced OK let me have my moment.

Nexus 9 looks perfect for comics.

It's considerably larger

[Pringo]

And it looks like Google has already dropped support for the Nexus 4 despite the fact it's not even two years old yet. People like to give Apple a lot of crap over stuff like this but I honestly think Google's worse about it.

Edit: False alarm. The Nexus 4 is getting Android 5.0.

[Tasty]

N6 is $650. Gonna have to pass.

Not sure I'd say "considerably."

Was afraid of that. Surprised the Nexus 10 is getting it though.

It looks like leaving out the Nexus 4 might have been an accidental omission. I guess we will wait and see.

They should've bumped the specs for the 5.

You'll be surprised,  9 inches isn't much smaller than a full-sized iPad (9.7). Looks like a good comic reader,  but I prefer 16:10 ratio for full page comics. Actually,  the nook HD plus had the perfect ratio, 3:2.

[Reb]

Yeah, it's much larger. This is not pocket sized any more.

[cool breeze]

andrex, what's your opinion on the nvidia shield tablet? nexus 9 is too big, and it's looking like the best in that 7 to 8 range.

[Eel O'Brian]

Ha, everyone's complaining about tablets getting too large,  but now that I'm having to wear reading glasses I'm loving the trend.

[Shaka Khan]

Not gonna lie. I already started saving for the iPhone 6 Plus after trying it, so this is perfect for me. Assuming it has a better battery life and camera, cause those are my biggest gripes about my Nexushite 4. Lollipop looks cute too.

[Howard Alan Treesong]

I need a TV box, wondering what I should get.

Nexus Player looks good but no Prime video app. Chromecast built in is nice, tho (I use the hell out of mine, amazing $35 tool). It is a circle though and I hate round shapes.

Fire TV has similar specs but no Google Play store & no automatic Chromecast.

Roku 3 is more "neutral" but getting a bit long in the tooth.

Also rumors of a new AppleTV, though I'm definitely more about that Chromecast life than Airplay.

I guess I can wait and see how Plex runs on Nexus Player and how hard it is to add the Amazon Prime Video app.

[Tasty]

[Shaka Khan]

I'm in the market of a TV box too. Apple TV, while nice, was a consideration until I got rid of all my iDevices. Anything but consoles.

That man has very bad teeth.

Probably can sideload the Prime app at some point. Some smart motherfucker on XDA will figure it out. The one bummer about the Nexus player compared to the older Google TV devices (I still rock a Vizio Co-Star) is that they 86'ed HDMI in. It was such a convenient feature IMHO.

[Shaka Khan]

Thinking out loud:

I always thought to myself that Nexus 4 was an excellent phone and a jumping point into Androids... but I really, really got burned on the camera and battery. The stock OS also started feeling dated next to the recent skins and OS's by other competitors. I told myself, even way before the Nexus 5 reveal, that I'm upgrading the minute Google cleans up those three areas.

I had already set aside some $ for a iPhone 6 Plus, mostly because of the good balance between camera, battery, and OS. But now? I can get a Nexus 6 *and* a Google Player for less than the price of a 6 Plus (all off contract).

... Now to wait for the performance comparisons.

tl;dr— I'm getting a Nexus 6

[Human Snorenado]

You getting a midget to carry that thing around for you?

Have you seen how big my hands are?
