I am seriously thinking about it.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

I will be getting it, probably in the New Year once stock levels are back to normal.  I've got an upgrade coming up anyways.  I mean, by that point I'll have had my current phone for almost 9 months!  Way too long without an upgrade.

Had I not just pulled the trigger on the Nexus 4, just before the price drop I must add, I'd consider it, but at the time I really wanted to replace my aging phone with something functional, and I'm quite happy overall with my Nexus4 so far! Can't wait for KitKat to roll out...
The difficult we do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

9 months!?! Yep, I'd say it's time for an upgrade! :D.

Nice phone but I'm happy with my new S3 at the moment.  Upgrading phones and laptops is a huge inconvenience for me so I only do it when it's absolutely necessary.

I won't be 'upgrading' from my Nexus 4.

The N4 works fine, and I believe it's slightly smaller (a good thing for me) than the N5.

The non-replaceable battery would be a deal breaker for me, but I tend to keep my phones long enough that battery replacement can become an issue.  I'll be like "white on rice" when the Samsung Skyrocket 5 is out allegedly in Q1 or Q2 of 2014.  I'm still rocking the Skyrocket 2, which I haven't had a reason to upgrade.
