Sprint Gets new Nexus.

[chrlswltrs]

If they really do upgrade the processor and camera I will have no reason not to upgrade from the E4GT. Add in NFC and the Nexus will win in every category!

LOL I just had to quote myself from last month. It's only right that Sprint gets an upgraded version of the Galaxy Nexus since we are getting it so late. This will make it even more interesting. I'm still waiting for what the GS3 brings.

I would be extremely excited if that is the case. As for the GS3, all signs point to it having quad-core and all that goodness. Personally, I could not care more for quad-core in a phone. Dual-core is the sweet spot for me, right now.

I think Samsung is debating which chip to use. They have the Quadcore Exynos 4412 cortex-A9 chip. I'm with you on the dualcore. Why? Samsung is also working on dualcore Exynos 5250 cortex-A15 chip.......which is more faster and powerful than the actual Quadcore! But that one will take awhile. If they use that chip on the Galaxy S III.....game over.

I think that A15 chip you mentioned is using 28nm manu. That sh*t cray!

Sprint just released this video for the Galaxy Nexus on their Youtube page. Seems a little odd to release the video if the release of the phone wasn't too far away..no?

Everyday? They make you work for it.

 

[NYCHitman1]

Lol, I'll work for a Sprint GNex for free.

I'm assuming this is coming out in April?

I'm assuming this is coming out in April?

I want to say it just might be. Mid-April/early-May release sounds like an accurate assumption at this point.

I am doing the entry everyday to try to get one, but with the progress being made on E4GT ROMs lately I might just stick with it until the next Nexus is released, hopefully quad core 8+ MP camera and Sprint LTE.

Who knows though, I have been wanting the Nexus since it was announced back in October, so I might just switch anyways

Do you know when they are announcing the winners? I was on there everyday using my email and the misses email. I would use it as a backup device for when I get my EVOLTE.

I believe April 16th.

Anything confirmed on release date yet? Heard rumors of today April 15th and April 22nd. Seems Sprint has forgotten about the Nexus, only talk about LG in April and EVO in late May or June

TD believes the 16th, but I'm thinking the 22nd, which is the same date as the LG Viper.

While we are playing the guessing game, I want to clarify that an announcement about arrival of GNex may happen the week 4/23 thru 4/27. I doubt it will be available immediately.

Yes, there is always a new/better/faster/prettier *enter electronic product here* coming out soon and *enter electronic product here* is already outdated but I will just be happy to replace my Hero with something better...now. HTC served me well but the good old Hero is on its last legs...

HELLO GNex. Roll on 4-22.

Any pricepoint rumors out there?

Well its official now but here are my problems with it.

1) They are about 5 months late. Why is Sprint so behind on getting everything? Most phones seem to come later to Sprint and lets not even get into LTE.

2) Its being advertised as a "pure Google" device. After the Nexus S 4G debacle, does anyone REALLY believe this is a "pure" Google device? The whole point of owning a Nexus branded phone is to not have carrier bloatware and to get the newest version of Android as soon as its released. Two things the Nexus S 4G failed miserably at. This is NOT a pure Google phone.

3) Sure, its LTE capable, but where is LTE available on Sprint? Like nowhere. Its not Wimax capable which means you will be running this on 3G until LTE becomes available to your area? Yea, no thanks. That could be 2014.
