BTW isn't Kit Kat supposed to be lighter (to support older hardware or whatever) ? So who knows what battery life will be. I would say "let's stop talking about the battery until we see results," but I see how great that worked out the last 10 times lol.

Unfortunately the best CM experience on non Nexus is not on par of Nexus!
Then AOSP roms take much longer to get stable compared to pure Android!

This is exactly on point! If anyone says to go get another phone and flash Roms to be on the latest update has never owned a non Nexus device and flashed AOSP Roms or does not care about bugs and a non stable device.

Kit-Kat will probably take months to hit other devices in a usable state and it still will be buggy no matter how many poeple post in the threads the Rom is perfect, because it is not!

Now for battery which seems to be a hot topic here. I have to agree with the users who want more battery life. I would rather see the N5 offer more juice and be slightly thicker then a smaller battery in a thinner device. I want a phone that can really shine in on-screen time. People who post pictures of their phone with 2 days of battery don't use their phone, period.

I will say the N4 has not been a true failure in battery but I am always looking for a bump up with each new device. When I am finally able to run a live wallpaper all day in addition to my regular daily use and have a nice amount of battery life left before plugging in, then I know we are where we need to be.

Right now, I still would not run a live wallpaper. People also need to realize if you are able to sit on wi-fi all day your battery will perform better. Unfortunetly a lot of people still need to rely on a data connection and it just eats into your batter all day.

We pretty much know what to expect. The SD800 does better standby than the S4 Pro, the battery is slightly larger, the screen may be more efficient, but that's about it, nothing game changing. The G2/N3 delivers with their 3000mAh+ battery and 2300 just won't last through the day using pure Google experience. Why complain about a $350 product? Fair enough, but if the top-end SoC and screen made it through the competitive price, it's really puzzling why a larger battery that's neither expensive nor that large didn't. Most would agree that we'd rather have SD600, a 4.8" screen and 3000mAh no matter of 4.4 efficiency, either way, it's our opinion and don't tell us not to express it on a free forum.

Not telling you what to do, just saying we shouldn't judge a product based off what we think and not know. 4.4 is supposed to be one of the lightest versions of android in a while, I'm pretty sure it won't suck battery like previous versions. But who knows? And who cares? And the end of the day I'm going to get it.

What is this comment based on? The only thing we really know about 4.4 is that we know nothing at all about 4.4. lol

Nothing yet but I can sum up some XDA rumors for you....

Battery life will suck. The camera will only be 8MP and because of that it will also suck. 4.4 will be the lightest version of Android to date. There will be 32GB version. Battery life will suck. The camera will suck.......The camera will suck, battery life will suck.

The N5 or N4 (2013) will only be marginally better then the N4 (2012). It will be the same size, it will be smaller, it will have a 5" screen, nope it will have a 4.95" screen or somewhere in between....

It will be lighter then the current N4, it will weight the same......

One guy is buying all the stock and reselling at higher prices. Now he changed his mind after XDA backlash...oh, looking to buy and sell again.

The N5 will sell out, no it won't.....

It will be $600, nope it will be $350. Will have 4megs of ram, it will have 3 megs of ram, it will have 2 megs of ram. Will have OIS, won't have OIS.

Okay, that about sums up the last 3 days....:laugh:

That's just one of the articles. Maybe I didn't quote it right by saying one of the lightest versions but it's obviously going to be lighter than a lot of versions of android in order to be ran on older hardware.

Pretty much this. I would add, however, that the battery life will suck so don't buy the phone.

Oh, and the battery life will be amazing, so buy it day 1.

Oh sorry, forgot about battery life.

Well rumor has it that it will be good, suck, good, suck, better, worse, suck, good, great, who even needs a battery in their phone just keep it plugged in, great, sucks, ok, not bad, terrible, non-replaceable, replaceable, gets hot, stays cool, wonderful, plug it in, don't need a plug, solar powered.......

You know its really too bad that with a fixed battery there will be no opportunity to swap with a larger 3rd party battery. To make matters worse, if you're hard on the battery, which many clearly will be, then depending on how long you own it you will probably wear the battery or kill it and then not be able to easily replace it

If you're hard on the battery this may be a one year phone.

That is a great point that people overlook about non-replaceable batteries. They get worse over time and stop holding a charge.

So longevity is kind of loss with a device that has a built in battery when you might only need a new battery, you now need to purchase a new device.

When Apple released their phone with non-removeable batteries and no extended storage Android users cringed and could not believe any company would do such a thing. We were all happy to not deal with this on Android devices.

Now Android manufatcures are following suite of some of the worst things Apple has brought to the table and becasue of it the users are no suffering!

Apple does soemthing right in the sense they at least copy the good things from Android each year while Android manufacturers copy the bad from Apple.

So reasonably let me tell you what I would like to see at this point.

I want Google to announce this phone by the end of the day.
I want to be able to pre order my pre order by the end of the day.
I want Google to send me an early version of this phone to try out in preparation for the final version. (2 day shipping have it by wed)
I want Google to call me every morning at 10am to give me pro-tips and ask what last minute changes I would like to see made.
I want a Google representative to come to my door on or around Oct 30th to hand me the final version and port over all my settings from my test build.
I want a large Kit-Kat bar erected in front of my home.
