Is Nexus 5 Really Coming Along? (Please Read)

[Farish]

It won't be a nexus 5. It will still be a nexus 4.

But all the leaked specs have all involved a 5 inch phone so wouldn't it be a Nexus 5?

If you rearrange the letters in "Nexus Four", it spells out "Our Fun Sex".

This is such an obvious clue from Google on what this new device will be named.

Remember, this is the Rumored Device forum.

Well if you take away the S and the G you have a Nexus 4 also. Or a Nexu S 4.

Then why was the 4th called the Nexus 4? It doesn't have a 4" screen.

So two more years from now will it be called the nexus 7 (haven't we seen that name somewhere before)? Exactly, this will be a new nexus 4 2013 edition. Frankly, why are we debating about a name for Christ's sake.... Does it really have that much of an effect on the product?

There are no leaked specs though, no one has said anything about a device except, "made by moto" and the assumption that it is the g2.

what if all of this is just what we want the Nexus 5 to be, and not what it really is going to be

What if? Yes, you really are new here.

Well whatever it's going to be called and whomever makes it, put me down for 3 please. I just hope they don't have the supply issues of the nexus 4 release. I almost want to pick up a couple of Nexus 4's for my mom and my gf. But if the nexus "5" is the same price......

Wait until end sept the rumor mill will probably be grinding more around then

 

[Ryandroid86]

I see the OPs point. Does this phone even exist? Last year the Nexus 4 was leaked around July 18th, 2012.
Here we are on 08/22/13 with nothing. We dont even know who is making, what it looks like, or if it even exists.
And no one has left anything at a bar in a while either. (just saying)

Apple and Google are going to merge. The new device will be called the iNexus and will run ubuntu. I read it on crackberry. Nokia is building it.

They just changed their mind and are going with the Gtx titan

 

[Rule9]

Steve Ballmer is going to be the new celebrity for Nexus commercials which will feature him having pillow fights in a speedo thong mankini

 

[TheLibertarian]

The headphone jack will be on the side.

Mind. Blown.

There will certainly be a new Nexus..Almost assuredly sporting the new Android OS...Key Lime unless some one wants to argue that name too. Hence 5.0=Nexus 5.

I'll also guarantee that it will be about the software and not about the latest spec's. The last thing Google is going to do is try to outspec their, OEM's. One because it doesn't make financial sense...and also because that is not what the Nexus has ever been about. Anything with spectacular specs is just a bogus rumor...

The Snapdragon 800 would make sense with its support of Bands, but beyond that I wouldn't expect too much. No need for them to do 32GB(Storage) or anything beyond 8MP camera. Yes I wish they would...but wishing doesn't pay the bills..

I won't even go into why we won't see this on Verizon...Tho it won't do CDMA it might support all the LTE bands(World wide)

There have already been several N5 rumors. Sure, maybe not as many as the N4, but maybe, Google's just improving at hiding what they're doing. Plus, there's no evidence or reason to not make an N5.

The os version number has nothing to do with the name.

The name is more or less a marketing decision. With the 5.0 OS and (presumably) a 5" or 5.2" screen, Nexus 5 sounds like a good a name as any.

Then again, it could be the Optimus Nexus or the Moto Nexus.

Make me happy make a Nexus 4S and incude CDMA
