Simple question. After seeing the razr maxx and the htc one series I really hope htc or moto gets a shot at the nexus this year. Maybe the GSIII will impress but the others have steped their game up.

As for what I want in the phone.

1. Good to great camera. (Its the flasgship)
2. Great scrren (now sure what's better super lcd or amoled)
3. Non removable battery.
4.nicro SD slot.

why do you want a non-removable battery? I want to swap batteries, plus when working on my phone if I mess something up and it gets frozen i need to pull the battery to restart it.

I wanna see LG take a crack at it haha :)

But the HTC one X is beautiful and I think if HTC does a quad core phone for Jelly Bean I will be happy enough.

HTC.

LG...meh. The Chocolate really ruined me in that I will never consider them to be a decent manufacturer. I'm sure that's wrong/naive, but meh.

How about as a wild/odd ball--ASUS?

ASUS is interesting but I don't see them really surpassing anyone else (and certainly not Motorola or LG) for the Nexus line.

Aye I hear ya...Atrix 2 and Droid 4 really disappointed me with the pentiles...

The Atrix 2... having a disappointing pentile display?! Are you kidding me? It doesn't have pentile, it uses a standard LCD and the screen it uses is one of the best screens found on any Motorola phone.

Yes. The RAZR, on the other hand, looks like a Game Boy Color in comparison to the Atrix 2.

I would like to see Motorola get a chance, mainly for their awesome radio hardware, they seem to make the best chipset for great network connection, and are best on the battery life.

Samsung has had two Nexus releases already, would be shocked if they get a third in a row. I would think the Nexus-4 Jellybean will be built by HTC or Motorola.

But rumors last year were that LG and Sony were also in the running for Android 4 ICS, would hate to see a LG Nexus, but a Sony Nexus would be interesting.

If am I betting hard cold cash on this, I say it's 50/50 HTC or Motorola

I honestly don't care who makes the next one. The nexus line has lost some of its luster with the vzw fiasco. I want the best hardware wise phone at the time, since updates dont seem to be coming that fast to cdma nexus devices

I'd like to see a Motorola built Nexus, but after seeing their screens I don't want to have to deal with that.

I love my GNex, but I don't want Samsung to have a third Nexus.

I don't want LG or any of the smaller companies anywhere near it.

So I guess I'm stuck between HTC and Sony. Hmm... I'd say they're about even.

On a side note does anyone else want some sweet Krait cores in the next Nexus?

Motorola. Asus sounds good. LG and Sony too.

First pick would be Motorola tho. Overall I think its time for some new ppl to make a nexus.
