I'll reserve my judgement until I see reviews and hear some anecdotal evidence from friends who are planning to buy it. I'm a bit wary as well, but that's mostly just 'cause LG bloatware is

With a pure Android experience...who knows? And since I use my phone a lot to read news and wahtnot, it'd probably be better on battery life for me. Damned AMOLED.

Google and LG officially announce the Nexus 4, available in Canada November 13th | MobileSyrup.com

$299 for the 8GB model, and $349 for the 16GB model via Google Play store.

EDIT: Canadian prices are $10 more than listed.

No LTE but a great price for the specs:

True, no expandable MicroSD slot either, which is surprising and kind of disappointing.

No LTE No Talk.

If you are going to force users to use cloud service by not having expandable memory at least let them have a faster connection speed...

oh Hai!

pre sale notifications

sad, no micro SD again.


$309 for 8GB

$359 for 16GB

the 8GB may be cheap enough for a backup phone when i don't need my behemoth Note.

I swear people act like I pulled out my cock when i use my phone. eyes bulge and give me a wtf look.

I'm suprised at the complaints over LTE lol. It makes sense for the people who stream video and whatnot on their phones but HSPA+ speeds are fine for me when browsing.

Tbh I haven't been getting a good LTE connection with my S3 and tons of iPhone users are reporting on and off LTE service as well.

That funky back finish

Maybe for my girlfriend. I like the specs but I may stick with my S3 until they release an LTE Nexus.
