Verizon? :<

Actually, yes

 

[Jeff-DSA]

I said, "too big, don't want." Now that I've seen it, I want it.

Eff me, Google.

 

[hom3land]

I want the player! If it plays xbmc I'm throwing my fire TV out the window!

 

[Shadow780]

How much?!

 

[Deleted member 325805]

How much faster is the Nexus 9 over the Nexus 7 v2? Web browsing is a bit slow on my v2.

 

[butalala]

N9 might be the most tempting tablet I've ever seen... I've always preferred the 4:3 aspect ratio but I'm in so deep in the Google world that it doesn't make any sense to switch to an iPad.


Probably won't get one unless Santa picks it up for me, but that thing looks real nice.

 

[Hasney]

If the N6 gets a Z3 level of battery life, I may be there day 1 depending on the price. Goddamn.

 

[Vic]

That price killed the hype... No way I'm buying it now.

 

[studyguy]

That price is as big as the phone.

The Verge says for Nexus 9
16GB for $399
32GB for $479
32GB (with LTE) for $599

[Razdek]

I read $649 on Motorola's official blog

"Nexus 6 will be available for pre-order through the Google Play Store in late October starting at $649"

http://motorola-blog.blogspot.com/2014/10/nexus-6-from-google-and-motorola-more.html?linkId=10037351

Pretty much secures a Note 4 for me....

So it says starting at $649 so that means the 32GB. Probably $700 for the 64 one. Those are significant price increases from the Nexus 5.

 

[popeutlal]

Finally, an expensive phone.

[Drifters]

Verizon? :<

Hahhahahahahahahaahs

 

[belvedere]

N9 looks good, N6 not so much.

Just you and me now, OPO.

 

[outunderthestars]

Any idea on the aspect ratio on the 9?

 

[Somnid]

How much faster is the Nexus 9 over the Nexus 7 v2? Web browsing is a bit slow on my v2.

It will destroy it, completely and utterly.

 

[alatif113]

What?

Camera
13MP front-facing with optical image stabilization
2MP rear-facing

 

[RoadHazard]

Nexus 5 staying as a smaller, cheaper option? They have a new page for it, right?

 

[Divvy]

650 is going to mean like 750 in Canada isn't it...

 

[Winterfang]

What's the price for the Tablet? are they bundles I can buy?

 

[Hasney]

Earlier today, the N6 appeared on AT&Ts site on contract for... $50. So there may be some hope.

 

[-Horizon-]

Any idea on the aspect ratio on the 9?

4:3

 

[Prelude.]

4:3 aspect ratio

Absolutely disgusting.

 

[Deleted member 325805]

It will destroy it, completely and utterly.

I just noticed it's much bigger, do you know if they'll be doing another v2 sized tablet? I use mine in bed and hold it with one hand and I couldn't do that with the Nexus 9.

 

[manfestival]

I hope there is a smaller nexus soon cause this is a load of donkey nuts

 

[Enco]

Nexus 9 bezel is gross.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Actually, yes

Where do you see that. If it were true I'd almost sell my 6+ for a profit.

 

[Haint]

Looks like the premium priced Android Silver program was real and they just rebadged it Nexus. Six hundred forty nine US dollars. Samsung is happy.

 

[Trouble]

Earlier today, the N6 appeared on AT&Ts site on contract for... $50. So there may be some hope.

I can't imagine AT&T giving $600 in subsidies.

 

[ghostofsparta]

The era of the Nexus superiority ends here.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

$650?

Man, fuck that noise. I bought my nexus 5 for 300. For that price, I ain't upgrading.

 

[Shiina]

$649 wow
the entire point behind the nexus line just went out the window

 

[Cheebo]

I hope there is a smaller nexus soon cause this is a load of donkey nuts

If there was anything else it would have been part of this.

 

[teiresias]

The tablet price isn't bad actually. The phone is just way too expensive, unless they plan to keep the Nexus 5 around (glad I have mine).

 

[Nakazato]

Earlier today, the N6 appeared on AT&Ts site on contract for... $50. So there may be some hope.

At 300 I would be fine

I just want to make sure Id be getting updates day and date

 

[CharmingCharlie]

Hmm no mention of wireless charging. I hope they haven't ditched that feature I love just being able to put my Nexus down on the charging pad. Also keeping my excitement in check till I see the pricing. I get the feeling the prices are going to be too high for my tastes.

 

[KarmaCow]

What?

Who uses the back cam on their tablet? Makes sense for a tablet vs a phone.

edit: derp read it wrong.

 

[JCizzle]

Goodness, I thought these were supposed to be reasonably affordable. Nearly $700 is nuts even if it does seem like a beast!

 

[Enduin]

So no expandable memory. Oh well.

 

[Tathanen]

Yup, looks like the 2014 Moto X is the "actually usable by human beings" version of this phone. Glad I bit the bullet instead of waiting for this.

 

[DrFunk]

Earlier today, the N6 appeared on AT&Ts site on contract for... $50. So there may be some hope.

...probably a placeholder price

 

[threetri333]

I wonder how much money will I lose from selling my Oneplus One 64GB?

 

[Somnid]

I just noticed it's much bigger, do you know if they'll be doing another v2 sized tablet? I use mine in bed and hold it with one hand and I couldn't do that with the Nexus 9.

They won't this year.

 

[veryslowhand]

4:3, take my money

 

[Divvy]

Looks like the Nexus 5 is being kept around, unupgraded

wat are you doing google?

 

[The Iron Yuppie]

The VZW branding is on the page for the Nexus 6. I'm still clinging desperately to hope!

The pricing is pretty disappointing though

 

[soul]

Google chose a great game to feature - Monument Valley. Beautiful, beautiful game. Very short, though.

 

[TeegsD]

400 bucks for the Nexus 9? Day one!

 

[phazedplasma]

lol wut google?

650 and too big

no thx
