Hmm, no removable battery or expandable memory. It's kind of like that one phone that everyone here loves to hate, the iPhone.

Yeah, I agree with you. I might get the 8GB version.

Holy crap what happened? I mean I also don't like iOS but this is a major killer for me.

If it has good battery life I can deal with no battery (iPhones in MY experience don't) but SD is a must. No ifs, no buts.

8GB isn't a bad choice at all if you just plan on it using it as a phone and not a day-to-day entertainment system tongue.gif But storage is limited (people will come and QQ about lack of sdcard blah blah blah)

Wish they offered a 16GB variant and learned from their previous Nexus 7 8GB/16GB combo variant that was eventually replaced by Nexus 7 16GB/32GB (at the same prices)

Looking at getting this as a replacement for my Sensation XE, waiting for updates on old phones is pointless.

I've never had a problem with batteries and I don't need the storage space as I don't keep alot of media on my phone so this is perfect. Just gonna wait for a few reviews before diving in.

No thanks. Maybe next time. Give me a $199 Nexus, with toned down specs and a beefed up battery, please.

If you're talking about the Nexus 4, it does come in a 16GB flavor for $350 unlocked.

$199 is a lot to ask for an unlocked flagship phone, seeing how most of them are $500-$600.

The nexus is by no definition a flagship.

That's like calling the Razr i a flagship.
