Wow
im in love,,, i WANT IT, I NEED IT!!!
*****, MONEY, NEXUS S
is gonna be my life style now..
Wow. All I can say. I hope this is good...
Front facing camera, nice
I hope there are some capacitative buttons at the bottom, love those on my N1.
Hmmmm....Back cover seems to be plastic like the Galaxy S. So build quality is **** compared to the N1/Desire. Hope it has a few surprises to make up for that.
hmm, looks cheap vs. N1, too glossy and plastic imo
Nexus One looks better.
Spec wise this is better though.
Finally something we can wait for My next phone for sure
Looks cheap n nasty
too much plastic

100% agree with you...
I'm disappointed by the plastic...Nexus One is staying with me for another year or so it seems...
Specs???????

Most likely Vibrant with Gingerbread and flash?
I will NOT be getting this. I am absolutely disappointed that the next nexus is a effin samsung. I just hope htc will release another true nexus in the future. Until then ill stick with the n1 which looks better than that POS
I'm in the market for a new phone (n1 has a broken screen)... this is tempting for sure. Waiting to hear more about specs and if we are going to see one on AT&T bands..
Am I right in thinking that the Tmobile US bands are the same as a majoritory of the UK bands?
HTC probably said : lol we're not dealing with more unlocked bootloader replacements.
Superamoled + better multitouch isnt enough for me to give up my N1. Solid build and design trump both of those features for me.

HTC's hipsteriffic invitations for a June 24th event in London contained precious few clues (DUDE'S WEARING A ROSE), but the Economic Daily News is now reporting something totally reasonable: it's for the Hero and Lancaster, HTC's presumed next Android phones.
Curiously, the paper refers to the two phones as one device, in two versions differentiated only by a keyboard.
The HTC Hero will be available in two versions, with and without a QWERTY keyboard. The model with a keyboard will be named HTC Memphis, or HTC Lancaster for sale by AT&T exclusively in the US for six months starting the third quarter, the paper indicated.
It certainly looks like there'll be a bit more than that to set the devices apart, and for the sake of variety, I hope there is. In any case, we'll be there. [Economic Daily News via Digitimes]

Looks like we won't be getting the Hero, or we have to wait until after the 6 months AT&T has it exclusively?
that phone is UGLY!! the mytouch 3g or what ever their calling it . looks way better
The version without the keyboard will probably be Hero, since the Lancaster is the one for AT&T.

how about this one?
http://ow.ly/b3EG
Anyone noticed that at least the Lancaster version has only a 240x320 display?
If this is also true for the HTC Hero version, it would be a clear disadvantage.

LMAO!!!!..............You are absolutely right. And why do they intend on doing the "Chin" thing on these devices. I mean im not really complaining(Lie) but i really want to know why and what purpose dos it serve.......lol im just saying.
this means that we're gonna have a better hero build with bluetooth that works
For those of you that hae the PURE or have looked at (touched/played with) the PURE I was wondering what you all think of the build quality.
I walked into a AT&T store and they didn't have any on display so I asked if they had any I could look at to compare to my TD2 and they pulled one out of the box.
The phone looked nice and everything. Same size as my Topaz, a lttile lighter, and plasticky.
Do any of you feel that it feels cheap? Compared to my original Diamond2 it felt wrong.The shape and all was good just the quality and material. In all honesty I was happy the US got a decent phone but I was dissapointed @ HTC for building such a cheap quality device. I guess it would make sense to build it cheaper so it would sell for less due to material cost but man was it a dissapointment.
Thoughts please.
I never held the D2 but my Pure is very solid. Sure it's all plastic but I'm yet to hear it creaking.

Got mine in the mail today, and so far it feels solid. The USB port cover feels a little flimsy, but that's been the case with every phone I've owned, and I haven't had one break off yet. I'm quite happy with it so far.
So anyone knows the PURE equals to? Is it a Topaz?

I own a D2 and i didn't held a Pure yet but Pure looks a bit like Blackstone. Black, oval, plastic. D2 looks very nice BUT of course they're both same devices.
it look just like the t mobile version of TD2 to me

Yes that is the T-mo UK MDA Compact V (TD2) I have US T-Mo with an unlocked D2. The original styling. Compared it doesn't feel the same. Mebe I should have asked Compact V owners the Q since they would more likely have experiance with both versions since it is readily available almost everywhere in EU.
So, I was bored tonight, and I had some 3M Di-Noc vinyl laying around. Here's what I did:

It's totally removable (doesn't leave residue behind), but I think it came out pretty well. The cutouts for the speaker and flash aren't nearly as noticeable in real life.
That's pretty good.
Sent From My HTC Evo Using Tapatalk Pro!
it looks really good, personally I would have changed the light and speaker holes and not cut out the HTC
Freaking Awesome! I would defiantly get that case for my phone.... love it dude. Give info if u ever plan on actually selling or wanting sum1 to try it out... let me know!
Sent from White Evo to Xda forums
wow this looks amazing! you should sell these, or at least do a tutorial! I'd love to do this to my Evo.
I like the look, but not as much as the carbon fiber. Also, if you have some left over, I think it'd look a lot better without the blocky holes cut out.
Perhaps follow my diy, if you'd like.

I don't like the poked out speaker hole look, but with I should've done the LEDs like you did yours (and like I did my original one).
This is the first one I did (white carbon fiber) a while back:
http://androidforums.com/accessories-evo-4g/92653-evo-white-carbon-fiber-back-pics.html
On ^ that one, I didn't bother doing the speaker holes because I didn't like the look of the white, and I took it off right after taking those pics.
I also have a lighter woodgrain one that I'm going to try to see what it looks like. The samples I'm using were all free, and I should be getting some more in the mail soon.

exciting!
the "original" cache disappeard?
mistery
PLEASE let this alleged hardware issue be the addition of a trackball/trackpad and a better casing than cheap plastic that gizmodo reported.
Let this be a standalone phone and not a Galaxy S with Stock Android.
i think i read on giz that it will be plastic. think i may wait for nexus 3

word...
Google needs some damn designers...lol. People with vision...the Nexus S/2 should looked like the HTC ONE concept some design student mocked up...with a few additions for usability.
You guys know Google doesnt' actually design phones right?
They basically call up sony/htc/apple/samsung and ask what new platforms/devices they have coming up. The respective companies show them a line up, google bids on them, and then they tweak it slightly (color/finish/very minor hw changes).
Cool, so rumour was true I hope it will be released soon...
I really hope it lives up to the nexus name. Not just a galaxy-S running stock android with an unlockable bootloader...
yay! coming soon with Gingerbread. 4 inch screen with trackball please.

As one of the XDA reviewers and long time users of both STRATA and FRAME, I'm drooling over this
The Verge just did a write up as well: http://www.theverge.com/2014/1/6/5277128/metawatch-meta-premium-smartwatch-brand
Coincidentally, Pebble going to introduce Pebble Steel which is the same as regular one but with a metal frame/bracelet, but it's nowhere near as elegant as this one. Sorry, but I think it was brilliant how they incorporated 4 corner buttons as part of the bracelet buckle (obviously Frank Nuovo design). Also, fantastic move to switch to epaper display.
Can't wait to test it out!!!
yeah really like the new steel pebble, the matte black with leather strap looks really nice
still, wish HOT Watch would be getting here sooner, really want to try the private calling function, if it's not to my liking i'm interested in something else
Btw, I haven't seen anybody confirm those hinges are secured by 4 corner buttons. I'm just assuming they are keeping functionality unchanged since the original MW has 6 buttons and going down to 2 would be too much of a change. I'm also curious if it's going to be waterproof like FRAME and if they're going to use a similar charging clip or something else, maybe magnetically attached one? As soon as I find out more details, hopefully after CES, I will post it in here.
I am more excited if there are much faster development on the Android software front!
I like the new hardware of course but at the moment pebble steel wins overall due to the solid development work on both official and unofficial software.
Still praying hard for my metawatch frame to be revived with this new announcement!
