Nexus 6 - Best phone I've ever owned.
An aside and regarding the name change for their phones, how on earth did the marketing geniuses at Google ever think that "Pixel" sounded better than "Nexus" for a premium product? Astounding.

Add another vote for an HTC One (M7) revival. Boomsound speakers, 3.5mm, small enough for 1 handed operation, great Sense UI... Add wireless charging somehow (flattened section on the curved back?), IP rating for splashes/submersion, and pack it as efficiently as possible to squeeze in a larger battery. Take my money!

I would REALLY like to see an 808 revival, with the 41MP camera still, but with stock Android (Nokia's usual), and an affordable price. I wouldn't care about the size or weight of it, as long as it kept the simple and unique looks of the original one, with mid-range specs. Just like the original.

I'd like to see another OnePlus X type phone. 5" OLED display, no BS notch or camera bump, capacitive buttons below the screen. Another phone like that, with updated specs, better battery life and wireless charging would be great

The device in my imagination (Alpha 2) will have the classic no-sides-bezels and decently sized (by today's standards ofc) chin and forehead to accomondate the mentioned specs.
as far as I remember. the 8MP sensor with 1.12um pixels can accomondate a 1/1.35" sensor. that yields a DECENT result. so camera CHECK!
For battery: 2950mAh can be placed in a 8+mm thickness. so I can use that thickness (in my imagination 8.46mm would be perfect. or 0.04mm more to fill to a 3k mAh in 4.7inchs.
and usability would be perfect. it's 4.7inchs!

Camera is a 1/1.33inch sensor of 8MP according to my plan. And 1.12um pixels. (For selfies)
And it's weight should be about 118grams. If I am not mistaken.

AnonD-174235, 15 Apr 2018cheap nexus all the way, sure motorola is the new nexus but... moreYes! Glass back of Nexus 4 was too beautiful. Wireless charging and fast updates makes it way ahead of time. There is also a Oreo ROM for this device on XDA, shows how popular this device was.

sony xperia walkman with high emphasis on audiophile features, such as 3.5mm balanced output and 4.4mm balanced output, digital noise cancellation for music, high bitrate audio, ldac, aptx hd and bluetooth 5, sd card, maybe even funky in line oled remote or small oled second display on the top edge of phone for track details and caller information
considering walkman nowadays doesn't use android os, both markets won't clash, even Onkyo does this with the true audiophile phone dp-cmx1
