want to win a HTC One X+

I don't have one, but my main concern with this phone was the size, and specifically one handed use, until I saw the ThingSling/FlyGrip/etc. These look like they would make it much more manageable.

Yeah, I am a bit disappointed in the limited storage of the N4 with no SD slot, and the sealed battery is a bummer too, I just don't think the phone will work for me. I am also hoping that Google rethinks some of the directions it is going in with the Nexus line. I do actually agree with their...

Actually the T-Mobile subsidized version does not seem like a good deal to me, it is only $150 off of the un-subsidized device. If you are on a value plan the total cost for the subsidized device after 20 months will be $600 vs $350 for the 16GB unlocked version Google sells. See here...

Hope so, but it looks like it has a couple screws on the bottom holding the backplate on, and the battery itself also has a couple screws holding the battery cord down.

Yeah, I would say if limited storage and sealed battery are not big deals to you, then hands down go for the Nexus 4. The benefit of direct Google software support seems tremendous, and based on current Nexus trends I think it will be a lot of phone for a very good price (unsubsidized). Or if...

Re: Should I get the Galaxy S III, or wait for the LG Nexus? Android does have native support for stylus input since ICS, and I have heard that the stylus on the Note 1 works just fine in CM, so I am guessing that the devs could get it working on the Note 2 as well, but there is no way to know...

Re: Should I get the Galaxy S III, or wait for the LG Nexus? I am leaning towards the Note 2 personally. I have always wanted a Nexus, but the sealed battery and lack of SD slot (especially with such low internal memory) may be deal breakers for me. I'm not sure about touchwiz, but I will...

congratz!

I would buy any Nexus that had a removable battery and SD slot. But if I had my choice of manufactures it would probably be: 1. Asus 2. Sony 3. Samsung 4. Motorola 5. HTC

Yes, I have everything backed up online, including the entire contents of my SD card. But I have a limited data plan so I can't afford to access videos or music when I am away from wifi.

Lol, SD cards are not bad. Yes, I want a reasonable amount of internal storage regardless, but it costs almost nothing to add an SD slot as well and it gives you a lot of flexibility. Look at the GS3, it includes an SD slot for those who want it, but they are supposedly coming out with a 64GB...

Seems like this article gets always gets linked whenever SD cards on a Nexus are discussed. But quite frankly, it is not accurate. If you look at the reddit source for the article, the quote from Dan Morrill that the article cites as the primary reason there is no SD card is actually not even...

Yes, I am definately bummed... But there are also rumors of a "Samsung Galaxy Nexus Plus" (GT-i9260) which is supposed to have an SD slot (and an upgraded camera). If this is true, it will likely be my next phone.
