This is what I hate about blogging and the internet:

Nexus 6 release date, specifications and features

Read that article and tell me you don't want to smash your head into your keyboard. Is this guy in 3rd grade? This thing is full of grammatical and spelling errors.

Then you have shit like this:

Unlike Amazon there is no news of 3D display in Nexus 6. So Google will go with its previous products.

OK. This is probably true. I highly doubt there will be 3D as well. But can you take the lack of a rumor as confirmation of non-existence?


One big news is also coming from Google’s side that Nexus 6 will be compatible with Android v4.5 Lollypop which will be announced in tech event. This time Google is planning to give big fight to all high-end featured smartphone with ts features. As we all know, because of nexus 4 and nexus 5 market value of nexus is too high. So this might be a bad news for brands like Sony, Samsung, HTC and Apple etc.

Wait... the next Nexus will be compatible with the next version of Android(apparently it's 4.5 'Lollypop' for sure)? KICK ASS!

I guess we all know that because of Nexus 4 and 5, the market value of the Nexus line is too high.....wut? Maybe he means that they are good value phones...not that the market value is too high......




I wish there was a council of elders who run the internet that could revoke his access to it. As well as any other bumbling fools.
 
Typical clickbait. Too many so-called "tech blogs" are like this - nothing but vanity sites scraping other, equally worthless blogs for content.

Please don't wish for something you may not like. In this country well call them the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Do something wrong on the internet, could get you put in the laogai (reform through labour).
 
You have to take the good with the bad.

Honestly, I'll take a badly written/easily ignored tech article to some of the insane things people are preaching on the interwebs and actually getting a following

That part was humor (referencing the IT crowd).

I'm too conservative/libertarian to really want such oversight of the internet.
 
Nexus 6? Isn't that name already patented? Ya, lots of grammar mistakes, and so much unconfirmed information. It's just bad. Ultimitly, I don't care about rumors unless the OEM actually says what they say at their keynote.

I am subscribed to many tech channels on YouTube, and many of them come out with Phone X vs Phone Y, and Rumor this, Rumor that, and honestly I just got sick of them...

I love phones for what they are, and what they can do for someone to better their lives. I don't care about what someone thinks it could be... Unless they have a vision for something great (i.e. Project Tango).

Most reviews I don't even read. If I want to learn about a new phone, I just go to the website and decide for myself if I would like the phone or not.

AMEN. I spent a long time deciding if I wanted to upgrade from my S1 to a Nexus 4(cash was really sparse for me at the time). And reviews just conflicted the hell out of me. You could read a review that made the Nexus 4 seem like the best thing since sliced bread. The next review would scare you away from it. Reviewers are generally not objective, and have their own quirks or perspectives that could lead them to describe something in an entirely different way than another person.

In the end I went with the phone and have not regretted it since (Well, maybe a little, since Straight Talk started offering LTE a few months after I bought it...would have waited for the 5 if I had known)

In a perfect world this would seem ok. That same council could govern and be benevolent and fair and understanding.

Unfortunately, that council would be staffed by humans who are known to be petty, dishonest, corrupt and close-minded.

Currently, the Internet is very 'democratic'...everyone has a voice. That's good in that anyone can be heard...but bad in that some people were never meant to be heard.

Reminds me of a quote from Churchill, Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.

Like that quote.

Yeah, the council would be a bad idea, but I was just joking about it.
 
All the reviews are praise. I'd like to know if any problems have surfaced before buying a phone. A lot of the time I can't find the specs I want. Most of the nonsense deals with stuff like Oh, Boy, 3D.
