And money wasn't an issue, what would it be and why?
Wait for the Note 3. I like a big ass full HD screen and the specs are gonna be monstreous.
I'm probably going to jump on the Note3, I am due for an upgrade around Sep.

I don't like too big screens for a phone, so I would go for an SGS4, kinda ironic isn't it ?
Iam also due for an upgrade around september, by then, many phones will be released....
If my GNex suddenly died on me, I'd pop my sim in my XPlay. Why?
I hate 5" phones, so that takes care of the S4 and the Xperia Z line (a shame cause I love the Z otherwise). The Note line is even worse for that. The HTC One is a beautiful phone with some great features and a good size..but you know it's locked down like area 51 because it's an HTC. Nexus 4 is tempting, but LCD screen, 720p screen(what with all the 1080 now), and it's LGness steer me away.
So in short, no new bleeding edge phone right now is tempting. Hopefully the X phone, or Nexus 5 or whatever doesn't go all 5 inch on us, and get's a 1080p SAMOLED (4.7" ideally)
My upgrade is also in September and a bunch of new phones will be out by then, but at the moment the only phone I would upgrade to would be the GS4.

Samsung may be locked down on AT&T and Verizon. The S3 was locked on Verizon and AT&T is just as evil about locking phones so the same will probably happen there.

After owning a nexus, I can only replace it with another nexus. So probably nexus 4 if I REALLY needed a phone but otherwise I'd wait for the new one to come out.
On Verizon, with no nexus, I'd probably have to say RAZR m.

The s3 was at launch. Remember the developer edition? Did Samsung actually unlock bootloaders on later s3s for Verizon? If so I'm mistaken.

I'm leaning towards the DROID dna..
I was actually able to upgrade back in February. There's no phone out right now that I really want to shell out the money for. The Xperia Z looks very nice, but no radios for 4G service here in the US as far as I know. As long as my GNex hangs in there, I'll probably wait at least a few more months before I consider upgrading. Possibly even until the big releases over the holiday season.

No they didn't. An insecure bootloader was leaked.
Note II, there was an exploit to flash an insecure bootloader as well.
As for both phones factory? The S3 came with a signed boot partition. Note II came with locked bootloader though.

if my verizon Gnex died today, i would probably ditch verizon and jump over to a nexus 4. the specs are good enough where i wont have phone envy any time soon. the size is just about right as i think the 5" phones are a little too big for me.
and there is just SOMETHING about stock android that i just love.
today? Nexus 4, specs are awesome for me and the price is just great!
Im planning on staying with Verizon, and I want to upgrade right now lol.
Went to the store today and played with the DNA and S3 and both were amazing. DNA is 200 and S3 is 100 bucks..
I love the way to DNA looks and feels, and i like sense. But currently there isnt any root for it, i don't think.
The S3 has a better camera, dual core, but its not even close to the benchmark scores to the DNA
DNA's benchmark was over 8k, S3 was at 3.k and my nexus, 1.7k.
WHAT DO I DO!?
Wait 2 weeks for s4 but it won't have Aosp. I said I wanted the one but the voice of reason (my brother) knows I love aosp so he is encouraging me to wait for cm.

I still have a week left in the 14-day window. It's my understanding that the EVO LTE comes out in a couple weeks. Should I return this phone and pre-order the EVO? It seems like it will have much better hardware than this, but I'd like feedback from fellow enthusiasts.
I'm torn because I just spent $550 on this phone and if the new EVO is better and close in price, I want to get the most bang for my buck, you know?
I'm asking this here because I want to know what any of you fellow Nexus fans/ owners would do in my situation.
Thanks in advance!

Honestly , it really comes down to customization and stock android. If u want stock ics with the best developer support stay nexus.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Do you want stock ICS or Sense? That makes up your choice for you.
I'm about to buy the Nexus, I'm done with HTC and their locked bootloaders and closed source drivers.
All of the newer HTC devices have really weak developer communities compared to every other OEM due to the way HTC locks their phones down.
Why would you ask Nexus owners if you should return it and get an EVO LTE. We all own a Nexus for reason because that is the phone we want.
All the specs for the EVO LTE are known so compare the 2 phones and decise which one fits your needs the most.
With what went on with the 3d and how long it took too unlock the bootloader ....it's a clear answer you should buy nexus or wait until may 3 to see what Samsung announces about the galaxy 3...which well be easy to root and flash with odin

S3! Lol. The note is bigger than the S3 but I'm more than happy with the size and capability with my S3.
Its a tough choice. My buddy as an att note and it is really cool. Definitely an attention getter. But the s3 is going to be top dog for a while and should have some awesome development for it. Check both out and get the one that fits you best.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
For me, the S3 isn't enough to leave my S2, especially with the price drop of the GNex AND the new nexus devices that will be released shortly, AND the other new phones that will be released shortly as well.
The TMo Note? That depends. Is it based on the Note 2 that will he released shortly, or is it based on the previous Note, putting it behind in rom development and basically another S2 type situation?
The TMo S2 was released so late that development was very, very slow and I see the TMo Note possibly having the same problem.
I DO like the Note, and would have gotten it in Feb had it been available on TMo then. But 5 months later? I'm gonna wait and see what else is coming along.

The GNex is a great deal right now. I'm debating getting it as well, but am trying to hold off to see what the Nexus line is going to be like this year. The price will either stay steady, or continue to go down, so there is no drawback to waiting (unless you wait until a point where it's no longer made and out of stock, that is).
The only real drawbacks are it's last years Nexus, with new models a few months away, and the lack of SD card expansion (Google seems to have done away with that on their developer phones, but we'll see if that continues with the next series of Nexus phones).
However, it's guaranteed to get Jellybean (next month, confirmed), and will most likely get next year's update as well.
BTW, I'm only talking about the GSM GNexus. I don't even consider the Verizon version a Nexus device.

Well I thought about the Gnex for a while and decided that I wouldn't ever get it. I mean sure its got the curved and high resolution display, but its lacking key features like a micro SD card.

Simply put, Verizon got their dirty paws on it. Came without Wallet (although it was able to be sideloaded), had some Verizon bloatware, and updates have been a nightmare for users (took months after ICS updates were released for Verizon GNex users to receive them). In fact, Google has since dropped support for it as a Nexus device (CDMA is a dead technology).

Funny cause I just got an S3 for my wife about an hour ago. I haven't really played with it that much beside installing some of her apps. Me personally, I wouldn't be able to switch. There are some really neat features and the 2 gigs of ram is very nice but for me the nexus with jelly bean is still the better device.

Completely agree with this. Ive had an iPhone 4 for a year and before that an HTC Evo 4G. I grew tired of the iPhone so I decided to take a chance with this Nexus. I've got to honestly say as long as this device stays in working condition for the next few yrs, I won't buy another phone until they stop sending OTA updates to this phone. Which might not be for a loong time considering I bought this straight from Google.

Why you downgrade to an SGS 3?

Overall the S3 is underwhelming. AOKP running on both devices, the Nexus perform just the same. The S3 is faster in some tasks like installing apps and gaming, but for the most part its not a noticeable difference. And the Nexus have more up to date software and roms. I like the feel of the Nexus more, the S3 feel very flimsy.
I'm in a dilemma about which device I should sell, I can store more stuff with the S3 and take nicer photos, but for almost anything else I prefer the Nexus.
I do know for a fact that the T-Mobile of version of S3 will probably get Jelly Bean as its last official update, while the Nexus will get plenty more updates from Google in the future.
Also S3 factory firmware is unusable for me, very bloated and slow, I guess once you're spoiled by stock Android everything else feel slow.
Yes, then sell the gs3, buy a new nexus, and pocket the difference.

Pocketing the difference feels great.
traded my iPhone 4 32GB + $100 for a 4S back in January off craigslist. The dude couldn't wait for jailbreak any longer and valued a bit more cash.
Flipped my iPhone 4S (that I got an AT&T sanctioned unlock for as soon as they started doing that) three days after playing with my GNex for $550.
Pocketed $170. Almost enough to cover iPhone "5" since I'm eligible for an upgrade. Might do that and flip it for Nexus 2 when the time comes.
Either way, in a great spot and happier than I could imagine with my Jelly device

I have a GSM G-Nex and love it, as well as my $30 T-Mobile plan. Unfortunately for some weird family plan related reasons I may grudgingly go Verizon. The only phone I have had my eye on as of late is the Nexus 4, but that is not an option. What is a good alternative? I like big screens, and up to date software, and I usually flash custom ROMs from this wonderful site anyway. (only running stock right now because 4.2 is really nice, great on my battery).
Gnex, gs3, or wait a week and check out the new HTC coming out.

Droid DNA, GS3, & Note 2 seem cool. Verizon G-Nex could probably be had for very cheap though. I hope I can just adjust their family plan and not have to join. I went prepaid because I had to, but now I really really don't want to go back to contract/locked-phone land!
I like the Note 2, if the bootloader gets unlocked I think I will be jumping on that one.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised to see the Nexus 4 eventually hit VZW, but who knows.
Ended up putting off switching until my GNex died a violent death. The Moto X has been a worthy successor thus far, 3 days in.

Not on Verizon lol
Edit: for me, I like specs. This phone will not keep my interest with mid range specs. Maybe if I see the software on this phone with the Google optimizations, I might consider. For now, eyes are on a potential Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 smartphone.

But I'm also curious if this IS the new nexus or if they'll be releasing another $350 Nexus with better specs later this year.

dancingtortoise, it's not a new Nexus phone: the Nexus 4 will still be in available for sale. We can probably expect a new Nexus phone for Oct-Nov 2013.
Yeah, I like the customization options for it, only thing holding me back (and only by a small bit) is the last year specs. That said, if the price is right then I'll pick it over the Nexus 4 and finally drop Sprint to switch to TMobile. Regardless, the Moto X price I think will be the deciding factor, if it's $200-ish then alot of people will probably get it just based on the hype alone. If it's $300-ish or more then I imagine it will fall more into a niche market.
I started with the original moto droid but I swore off Motorola after I got the droid 3. I was very disappointed. I used a fascinate in between selling the d3 and getting the gnex. I was running hellybean 4.2.2 and loving it, on a single core! The new moto phones look nice, but I will wait until the next Google nexus comes out, no matter who makes it. I just hope the phone comes out for Verizon too this time!

The Nexus 4 was too flimsy, heard waaaaay too many horror stories about build quality, easy breaking and lock ups. And anyway the hardware improvements were not a big enough upgrade to me, and I already had the software on my GNex. The hardware upgrades here seem more of an actual upgrade(i like the alleged 32gb option). Even though as before I will have to wait and see, and I will already have the new software upgrades since I am assuming this thing runs 4.3

From everything I have heard, and certainly this has not been confirmed, there will never be another nexus phone on Verizon. Ever. Google was pissed the way Verizon dealt with them on the GNex and supposedly has unofficially said they will never do that again. So at the very least you may want to think of a plan B

And what device on Verizon DOESN'T have a locked bootloader (GNex doesn't count)? The One when/if it hits? Well, if you like the One, go for it. Based on what was released earlier today, the Moto X/Droid line is far from "mid range specs". Hogwash, pure hogwash. The mid range spec thing was a rumor based on rumor. Motorola didn't say that and neither has any carrier. It was assumed because the processor was listed as "dual core" on FCC filings. Further, we haven't really seen the device in action yet. So far it looks like stock Android with a couple of Motorola widgets and some custom icons tossed in here and there along the OS. Looking at Motorola's X8 processor, it seems far from "old". Just because you read "Dual Core" online, it doesn't really mean a whole lot in this case. Is it going to be developer friendly? Probably not. But it depends on what you want. If you want to spend the life of your device flashing buggy roms and waiting for CM XX.XX to finally finish right as the next version of Android comes out so you do it all over again, well, then it's probably not for you. I think the X8 looks very intriguing.
For me, if it runs smooth, fast and lasts as long as my GNex does with my Hyperion then frankly it's a home run. I've always looked to Nexus devices to get the latest updates. Now, with Google's new APK's, that's less of an issue to me. Further, with Motorola having exclusive right's to develop the "Droid" line for Verizon and talks of them slowing down device roll outs, I'm thinking that this might provide opportunities for more updates (Especially with Google having a hand in Motorola now).
Don't like it, don't buy it. Personally, I moved to Verizon for the GNex knowing full well that it might be the only thing remotely close to "Nexus" that the carrier ever got. If it runs smooth with zero lag then that puts it up there with the One, and both will stand above the S4. Looking at a Spec Sheet is right up there with a redneck showing off their belt buckle size. People are duped into buying laggy crappy phones with awesome spec sheets every quarter.
Chase those quad cores that don't even have software and apps optimized to use them.
Do you optimize, bros!?

From what I've read around the web.. Nothing official, of course.... The Moto X looks to be similar in specs as the Droid Ultra.
I don't know if Verizon cares or not, but there are a lot of g'nex users keeping their phones due to lack of a satisfactory replacement. Maybe that will put a little pressure on big V to have 1 nexus phone on their service.
