I've just ordered an Ultra Z with a 6.4 incher. It was only £220 sim free so couldn't really resist shiny new toy syndrome. So this Nexus is seeming a little small all of a sudden.

The Nexus 4 was ideal for me. It's just a pity the only decent replacement at the moment seems to be the Samsung Galaxy Alpha :/ I'll be sticking with my 4 for the foreseeable future.
Take a look at the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact.

Thanks for the headsup! Still expensive compared to a Nexus of any description unfortunately :/
It's around £350 sim free from Clove. Not too bad. Think same price at Handtec too.

Xperia Z Ultra is now just £209.

Got mine last week. Lovely, lovely bit of kit.

The camera was slated though. Have any updates made it better? The Nexus camera is supposed to be very good, better than the 5 which was OK were it not for the focus issues.
Haven't really used the camera much to be honest. Sony have been good with the updates in general though. I'm on 4.4.4, which more than I can say for my Galaxy S4.

Taken a few photos now, and the camera is absolutely shocking. Actually didn't realise you could buy a phone that takes such bad photos in this day and age. Not a deal breaker for me though, as knew what I was buying into. And if it had decent camera I'm sure it wouldn't be going for as little as £209. Still a very happy customer.

It's the same unit as in the Z. So by that, I reckon there must be a way of rooting it and patching it with the Zs software. Maybe I'm being a bit adventurous in thinking that.
I'm not sure it is the same unit. It's only 8MP.

My order got cancelled. I was a victim of identity fraud earlier in the year, and because of that CPW say they can never sell me anything again (not even kidding) and cancelled my order.

Probably for the best. You'd have only sent it back. hehe

My Nexus 6 (1yr old) has been pretty faultless. Love the big screen but shocked to se it is only the 13th largest phone screen available!
Think my Z Ultra's still no.1 with it's 6.44 incher...
