"I rarely use anything but a weather app, maps, and the web browser, though."
This and cost were the reasons I initially thought about switching. I do almost all of my real iOS use on my iPad. The phone just does calls, checking email, and some web browsing when I'm out and about.
That said, I have expanded my phone use with the Nexus 4 considerably since I've found it to be more pleasant. For example, I send emails from the Nexus 4 regularly, as opposed to never (or maybe in an emergency) on iPhone.
"Also, the Nexus 4 is just large enough, it's actually difficult for me to operate with one hand sometimes, because I can't reach my thumb quite as far across the screen."
This is probably the main thing I dislike, although it's hard to totally fault this as I enjoy the larger screen when reading or web surfing. And apparently the iPhone 5 is starting to have similar issues.
Better idioms for navigation that don't require long stretches to the top edges of the screen will probably mitigate this in time.
