gosompoi Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I can buy a LG Nexus 4: $249 + Asus Nexus 7 tablet: $229 + Acer Chromebook: $199 = $677 USD. That is still less than a Iphone 5c in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooloomooloo Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I'll have agree that iPhones are expensive but they are functional and look forward to iOS 7 update this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosompoi Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) Rather have android with a bigger screen and micro-sd slot all plus usb port than overpriced Iphone with thunderbolt. Edited September 15, 2013 by gosompoi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muratremix Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Nexus 5 wont have 64bit cpu because android does not support 64 bit cpus. There wont be fingerprint sensor either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmugghc Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 All the rumors point to a S800 SoC for the new Nexus, which is 32 bit. I plan to get that one. The LG G2 looked attractive, but now some strange stuff has surfaced, e.g. no Recent apps button in the configurable navigation bar, changeable system font but not including the Roboto. But its camera seems to be awesome so I hope they use that in the Nexus. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fvw53 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks for the valuable comments. I have not yet bought a smartphone because I am puzzled by the many offers on the markets and the absence of English explanations : now I have an idea of prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shurup Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I'd never get an iphone even if they were cheaper than the leading android phones. And I'd never get a device with a fingerprint scan (not to mention the DNA), it's actually a turnout feature rather than the bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 The GNEX 5 (LG G2?) does not look to be earth-shattering, and neither does KitKat (Android 4.4). Both rumored for Oct. 14, 2013 launch/release. The LTE would be nice, mostly for use in other countries. You may have to wait for Key Lime Pie (Android 5) and a GNEX 6?

sensei Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) All the features if the iPhone is relatively pointless being viewed on that tiny screen and coming out with the S version every other year doesn't cut it anymore.

There wont be fingerprint sensor either. 64 bit is not going matter on a phone for at least several years in to the future. The fingerprint sensor is a 50/50, love to have it but I have a feeling I rather wait till this is proven tech for a phone. I know the apple home button breaks often, so then what?

Right If arm releases 64 bit cpu, then samsung can release it whenever it is ready. But then Android is not 64 bit, and optimizing android to 64 bit will take some time. So dont get your hopes up for next year. Apple makes fully custom arm chips like quallcomm, samsung uses default arm template with no customizations in cpu and gpu part.

lomatopo Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) The K release used to be called Key Lime Pie, now officially renamed KitKat. Next release will be something starting with L. Since it (Android 5.0) has yet to be named, at least publicly: Licorice, Lemon Drop, Lollipop, I was simply referring to the name it was called until this change for Android 4.4. Maybe Lemon Meringue Pie? Looks like the earliest release would be at IO at the end of June next year?

GirlDrinkDrunk Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 i will never buy an iphone again.Why wouldn't you buy an iPhone again? Serious question. You can buy something equivalent in functionality with far less restrictions for a fraction of the price. Having owned an iPhone 5 and an I mobile iqx, I would buy the iqx again should it be lost or stolen. Not the iPhone. Getting away from iTunes is a truly good thing.

pmugghc Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Looks like the earliest release would be at IO at the end of June next year? Since Samsung has announced they will ship a 64-bit phone next year we'll need a 64-bit Android. That should be such a big change to warrant a 5.0, agree IO will be the most likely time to discuss the implications for developers. Or is that too late? Sorry for going OT.

Restrictions keep your data and phone safe from viruses. It is a phone for f... Sake. Why would anyone want to use it like a computer? An unstable computer actually (android). For an average user there is nothing you miss on ios that you can get in android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is still less than a Iphone 5c in Thailand. The N4 is sold out on the U.S. Play Store, and will not be re-stocked. The GNEX 5 (LG G2?) does not look to be earth-shattering, After reading more about the GNEX 5 it does sound pretty spiffy. I think I will get one on a trip to the U.S. during Christmas/New Year's.
