    When do you guys think they next Nexus will be released?

    Logically it would be late this year, but Nexus releases usually coincide with Android updates. Jelly Bean was just rolled out, and seeing another update show up by November doesn't seem likely.

    But if they don't update it, the iPhone and WP8 devices will probably regain a hardware advantage.

    I can see a new Nexus showing up in November with Android 4.2, but that's fully dependent on whether Android is going to be updated this quickly.

    If they do release one, I hope HTC is the manufacturer. A metal unibody Nexus would be an awesome successor to the Nexus One. (Something like this: http://www.tdevelopers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/HTC-Edge1.jpg)

    Honestly, I would LOVE if they kept the current Galaxy Nexus form factor and just upgraded the internals. Samsung will probably, and rightfully be the manufacturer again.

    Same here. I like the way it looks and I like the on-screen buttons. The design of the phone is just perfect also!

    But the back of it looks awful... and a good portion of it is plastic. Imo the Nexus One was the nicest looking Nexus. The only thing it was missing was a curved display.

    Are you talking about the first result? (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gsu1kFQOKqw/UBT-A1EzXmI/AAAAAAAAUsc/AeYn3AeF1fY/s1600/Next Galaxy Nexus Mockup.jpg)

    Because that looks hideous.

    Or your link is broken. I just see a general Google image search for "Nexus Mockup".
