The problem with the Nexus phones is that they never come with a
MicroSD slot. That, for me, is a deal breaker. I use a 64GB MicroSD
for all of my music (down from the 128GB I broke in transferring from
one phone to the other) and I can't imagine using the very limited
built-in storage for all of that media.
