Nexus is definitely a hot phone but I haven't really had good experience with LG. My LG Chocolate from way back when had terrible battery life compared to the other phones around at the time.

Just because tons of people enjoyed lining up days in advance to get ripped off doesn't mean these phone are expensive to make.Last edited by elty; Oct 29th, 2012 at 01:21 PM.

So this phone will work with Wind mobile, right? And only one version, no seperate big 3 version and wind version I assume. I can't believe how S3 is going to sell for $650 now.
I think google is killing their OEM partner with move like this.Last edited by rivet; Oct 29th, 2012 at 01:23 PM.

They had to cripple sth. so people will still buy phones from Samsung, HTC and other partners. To me, those are price minor things.
