so no 13MP camera (best phone camera for Android phone) and 3000mAh battery from LG G2...This phone better be cheaper than LG G2... I would still choose Nexus 5 over LG G2 (or GS4) because it comes with stock Android (no bloatware from LG/samsung) and update directly from Google.

Basically a phone almost as good as a 6 month old Galaxy S4 but without an SD card. Why doesn't google want SD cards in android phones? Because they make money from you being forced to use google drive or other some other remote storage solution.

Save yourself some money and put whatever ROM you want on a Galaxy S4. You will have a better phone made by an actual hardware company.

Specs look good, I'm never really excited for nexus devices because they aren't known to push the envelope. However, it always becomes the device of my choice. Hopefully it's battery suffices

Talk of a snapdragon is just a rumor right? Repeatedly posting leaks that are nothing more than speculation seems dumb. It's not a leak if it's a rumor. I expect an article with this title to say "CONFIRMED" this or that. Not "well, we have here some rumors again that we're going to call specs today".

Perhaps it is a better phone, but the Galaxy S4 is currently $600 off contract. I doubt the Nexus 5 will cost more.

And I'm pretty sure LG is also an "actual hardware company".

"Ho hum. Where's the innovation? "

The innovation is you can buy a pretty high specs phone without selling your kidney. Galaxy S4/Note 3/iPhone 5/LG G2/Nokia 1020 are all $600+ phone. For me, I really don't want to spend too much for a phone. Phone tech just evolve TOO FAST!! (specially compare to computer)

Support for CDMA and GSM and LTE, they are probably covering all big four networks this time. This has the makings of becoming a popular phone. I'll just enjoy KItKat on my Nexus 4 for a while. Can't wait.

True, but there may be multiple versions of the device pitched etc. Too many ways it could turn out wrong. At this point it's just a better version of a rumor ;) They print this crap daily these days. It just not that news worthy.
