AnonD-81031, 01 Nov 2013Why wont google/LG release their Nexus phones on other coun... moreDue to taxes and othet fees hehe. Yeah i hope it will be released here in the philippines at a cheaper price

    Such a disappointment for this when they made the G2 already available. I had the Nexus 4 and the battery life was terrible. I can barely get 3 hours screen time on a GOOD day. And I would lose 25-40% over night just on standby! And yes, even stock with nothing installed, the battery was terrible. Now this with bigger screen, faster CPU, and still crappy battery. You'd be lucky if you can get 2.5 hours screen time. Forget all the tests and reviews out there. They don't reflect real world usage at all. I've read many forums and other people have very similar experiences so it's not just me.

    On my first week, my G2 manages average 5 hours screen time and I'm a moderate to heavy user. There's pretty much no reason to get this over the G2 unless you REALLY need vanilla Android (which after using the G2, I don't really see what the big deal is). There are lots of neat features on the G2 that I love which the N4 didn't have. Yes, I know you can get apps for it but most aren't always complete and lack features. So you end up installing 3-5 apps just to get the same feature which is fully integrated into the G2 from factory.

    And that huge lower bezel is just plain ugly. Such a waste of space. I don't even need to mention the camera since it's pretty much the same as the N4 and will most likely be crap. I guess you get what you pay for.

        Great phone but outdated camera and battery should have been better. This phone is one of the most anticipated releases from Google with these specs a better battery would have nailed it sorry.
