quote:Yep. That's why I'm keeping the Nexus 5. Lollipop should run beautifully.
The nexus line just lost a lot of appeal to me.
quote:Having used every legit tablet out there (through work), it is my opinion that 4:3 is the way to go when you get above the 8'' range. Wide screen tablets that are bigger are awkward to handle. I think the $399 price is pretty good for what you get. It's not the great deal that it used to be, though.
I really liked the size (and price!) of my Nexus 7 tablet, but it was the 2012 model, and is losing steam every day. I'm not sure the Nexus 9 is going to be my replacement - especially at a 4:3 ratio and $400 price point.

Where did you guys see pricing info?
I'd love a new tablet, so I may pre-order the Nexus 9...I like that it is closer to the iPad size, as I prefer bigger tablets, and Lollipop looks pretty sweet (sorry).

N6 is $649 off contract.
Guess elGoog finally got tired of subsidizing phones.

Barry, I'm really sorry to tell you this.......I know this is tough to hear but.........pretty much all of the Android fans here agree with you on this point.

Isn't the nexus 6 the same dimensions as the iphone 6+? Bigger screen, smaller bevel?
quote:
That pretty much confirms me getting the nokia 830 whenever it comes to tmobile.... was hoping the nexus 6 would be good but not at that price. Even the nexus 9 is too expensive and really expensive for the lte version (the one I would want).
Seems like in general the "innovation" has slowed significantly in the phone space and people don't need or want to upgrade every 6 months anymore. ipad saw the same thing when the newer models really didn't do anything better than the old versions and sales stopped growing. I think we are getting really close to that point with cell phones and things like this won't help that trend.

They (Apple and Google) are going to press the whole "phablet in your bag, phone on your wrist" with the size of these devices.

So, what? Few weeks until release?
quote:Not sure. The Apple Watch and Google Glass are supposed to be standalone wearables that serve functions beyond simply being an additional peripheral for your phone.

Take the watch for instance. It does many things on its own, like storing and playing music as well as measuring heart rate. I can see runners liking the Watch by itself because they can play their music through Bluetooth headphones while measuring their speed, heart rate, and run time. When they get done, the Watch connects to their iPhone and interacts with it as they go about their daily business. They're independent while still complimentary.
