Yup. I upgraded to a Nexus 4 from a Nexus S recently and the Nexus 4 is a much nicer device and the Android experience is great: fast, smooth & pretty. It has to be hands down the best value smartphone on the market at this price (it was already great value at $100 more).
- virtualwhys 13y agoAgreed, Nexus 4 was already a great deal, IMO, at $350, $250 is a ridiculous price. Thing is unlocked to boot, great for working abroad. Unlocked iPhone, what, $650-750, no? Having ditched OSX for Linux a few years ago, Android just makes cents, literally, lots of them ;-)
- dobbsbob 13y agoDamn I just bought one at regular price lol. Nexus 4, if you build your own o/s is amazing fast. Runs SEAndroid like a charm too, you can lockout audio, camera and mic whenever not in use
- fein 13y agoThere's a buyer protection plan if you purchased after august 12th. $100 refund by the looks of it. You'll have to wade through the support prompts, but start at: https://support.google.com/nexus/4/ https://support.google.com/nexus/4/ and click 'Contact Us' to get to the form. Edit: you'll need the order number and the device IMEI
- dobbsbob 13y agoGreat success, thanks
- fein 13y agoI just stumbled across it looking for a 5 day pity refund. Props to Google for it being an automated process, not so much for total lack of promoting the refund.
- memsom 13y agoI'm a little irked. I ordered mine on the 7th, so miss out by 5 days. But it's a great phone so it's not all bad. But no one likes paying over the asking price, and had I waited a week, I'd be £80 richer.
- vidarh 13y agoBest value of well known brands perhaps. You get various Chinese brand ~5" phones with 1920x1080 resolution, 16GB ROM for that price or less now. And those are typicall dual sim, and take 32GB SD-cards too. Build quality for most of them are probably not as quite high as the Nexus 4, but the one I have at least is very well built.
- icpmacdo 13y agoWho sells these? I would like a cheap ultra phone.

- rorrr2 13y agoNone of them are 1920x1080.
- ajross 13y agoNor are any available with 2G DRAM, which is a big part of the N4's great interactive performance. In fact, if you limit the search on that site to 1G phones with Jellybean and 4.6-5" displays, you get a lot of units with prices significantly higher than the new price of the N4. And the ones that are cheaper seem pretty universally inferior (e.g. 480x800 screen, minimal internal flash, etc...)
- vidarh 13y agoTons of resellers on aliexpress.com. Note that they are shipped direct from China, so reading feedback is essential. You can also find some that sell via Amazon marketplace.
