That looks like a great deal, like all the other nexus devices. If google keeps up with this they might force the other big players like Samsung and Apple to drop their ridiculous prices a bit.

The $349 is without contract?

Bit too big of a phone for my liking, the white version looks gorgeous though. Really good specs too.

This looks great. Being both generous on system specs and having a small price tag, I think that this will be a successful phone. I don't really like the white model though, as it looks "cheap," but maybe I'll pick up a Nexus 5, as my HTC is gradually dying. What I really like though, is that the screen size is quite large, as smaller phones are really annoying to use in my opinion. For example, I dislike my HTC as the screen size is small, although it is larger than the iPhone. Small screen size make browsing more difficult, which is why I rarely use the internet on my current phone.

Yes.


The interesting thing is that even if the phone is as big as the Nexus 4 the screen is larger, they achieved this with the smaller bezel.
