                AnonD-59657, 26 Apr 2013I feel LG can produce a better quality smartphone than Sams... moreGoogle need not partner to release the Next Nexus. it should be Motorola, and its the X phone. almost all nexus product is value for money, irrespective of the manufacturer.

                Nexus series is built with good h/w at affordable prices, Google dictates the h/w and design specifications. While i commend LG for Nexus, still feel Galaxy Nexus & Nexus S were better built in their time.
                To keep the momentum, Google should have Partners apart from moto to release market specific products.

                      Where is htc(heavily relies on android) or sony(only android),wait for nokia's gamble to grow its margins,its already getting a positive response.i bet nokia eos will be a game changer,nokia will again deal in bestsellers.41mp pureview cam with ois,latest snapdragon 800(current snapdragons don't support resolution of 41mp or 38mp,so that becomes a necessity),upcoming and promising wp8.1(wp8 doesn't support cam sensors above 13 mp,again that becomes a necessity) windows phone 8.1 will have 1080 p support(announced by microsoft),and above all great software perks and exclusive hardware(e.g. Puremotion hd+,haac rich recording) from the finns.

                        Please release G pro or G2 this year in the Philippines :D

                        we can't say that Nokia is falling because it sells a lot... even tough their not smartphones. Nokia started this all and i grew up with it :DDD before switching to LG

                              Nokia still selling loads of phones which is great...but still slipping away when it comes to smartphones...why only back windows phone? it has a seriously uphill battle with Android and ios in a basically 2 horse race...Nokia should bring out windows AND Android phones if it wants to compete with Samsung!

Nokia's share is down, but in the last 2 quarters, it's gone up. I expect Nokia's 2014 figure to be positive. And NO, they should not adopt Android.

                                        I hope Goggle will continue to work with LG as the strategic partner to produce the best affordable smartphone like Nexus 4!

                                        LG provides the best hardware for Nexus Phone!
                                        Google provides the lastest Android OS like JB 4.2.2 for Nexus Phone.
