Another Nexus 4 owner! My girlfriend has been giving me crap about how my phone is going to be 3 years old in a month and how I need a new phone. I don't. They are all plastic/glass bricks with the same Android operating system in them. I wish my battery life were better, which I guess would warrant a new phone.
I don't like that the battery is under 3000 mAh but it is only $380...though I guess others are saying that the Moto X Pure and the Xperia Z3 are around the same price point but better?
- davidw 11y agoThe Nexus 4 had great battery life initially - you could get through nearly 2 days with it. After a lot of use, mine is not so great any more, but still quite usable - I don't have to worry about whether it'll make it through the day.
- cheald 11y agoMy N4's battery life is really hit-and-miss. If I wander into an area with poor HSPA+ coverage the battery just tanks.
- MrBusch 11y agoSame here - actually the Nexus 4 still is a great solid phone. But besides the battery life, storage space for apps is a problem for me. Since the latest Android updates, apps got a lot bigger and I regularly need to delete stuff to be able to get all the app updates. Maybe it's time for a new phone now.
- cheald 11y agoSince Lollipop it's been agonizingly slow for me. Apps take 4-6 seconds to open, opening a web page can render the phone unresponsive for seconds at a time. My wife's has become unstable, hard-locking and/or rebooting several times a day. Using the camera in particular seems to cause it to misbehave, which is unfortunate as she loves taking pictures. It's been a great phone, no doubt, and we've loved ours, but it feels like it's time to move on to the next thing.
- Kluny 11y agoI miss mine so much! I lost one in a motorcycle accident, and another in a Nicaraguan taxi.
