I don't want a behemoth phone. I had the Note 2. Too big. The Nexus 5 size was perfect. Love it! How about the Nexus 6 and the Nexus 6 del Grande? I hear 6 Plus is already taken. :)

 

google may keep the N5 in the lineup for a smaller option.  nobody knows for sure yet....

6S is open I think, but they may need that one next year.

lol true.

 

You all are whimps. Shamu too big? Oh Please, Shamu has nothing on the Mega, size wise.  :P (insert deep cowboy voice here) Now that's a mans phone. <return back to wimpy voice> lol

 

All joking aside, If i wasn't going for the Note Edge (whenever that damn thing comes out) I would probably (85%) have turned in my Mega for the Shamu. Even with it not having a sd card.

Negative.  The Note Edge has been announced on all four U.S. national providers.  It is launching in Korea first.

more worried about spark compatibility than size

Here is a link to an article that states that device (Nexus 6) will be available on Sprint. Take it for what it's worth....

 

These guys also tell false truths about Sprint taking away unlimited data.

TKTechNews which that article said it had information that it would be on Sprint now says it is AT&T exclusive for 2 months then on Verizon too.

Oh wow! I would like to see that device come to Sprint. I'd probably go for it. By what I have seen so far, it looks pretty sweet.

 

I can't imagine Verizon letting it on their network. They like to have the upper hand all the time.

First off, it's hard to imagine any Nexus device being an AT&T exclusive. It's kind of counter to the whole marque. Second, Verizon getting back in on an open device? That's hard to imagine unless Google decided to close the ecosystem for Verizon. This just doesn't smell right. And consider the source. They already have contradicted themselves with the Nexus 6/Nexus X rumors. No matter what ends up happening, they were wrong.

 

It's hard for me to imagine the new Nexus not being released like the last one. Unless they went back and created provider specific devices like the Galaxy Nexus. And what a mess that was. The N4/N5 open environment is the only way to go.

 

If they kow towed to Verizon and created different devices in a non open platform, then I will no longer be a Nexus device owner and avoid the newest version. Might as well just get a carrier version of the Google Play edition of the device of my choosing. Or go back to modding.

I didn't mean to imply that its not coming to Sprint but just to show they change what they are reporting all the time. Trolling for clicks maybe.

Reading the TKTechNews article about the Verizon and AT&T exclusive gave me a headache. That author can't write grammatically correct sentences to save his life. An "and" was missing the "d." Snapdragon was spelled with a space. Nexus wasn't capitalized in a few places. There were inconsistencies all over the place. I definitely would read this article with a grain of salt, and if he turns out right, well, then either his sources were correct or it was pure coincidence, and good for him, but I cannot take that kind of writing if they are aiming for credibility.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
