Nexus 4 anyone?

Obviously in the States I know the lack of 4g could be a problem. But for the rest of the world I can't think of a better phone especially at that price. Only problem at the moment is the terrible stock issues.

the nexus 4 is the best phone out there aside from lack of 4G. for the price, i was gonna get it, but... no 4G, so no

the optimus g then is the nexus 4 with 4G and with LG's bullshit in it, plus it costs twice the price. i'm not sure if i should wait to see if a nexus 4 4G edition comes out (it just needs the antenna, it has the chip in it) or go with optimus g. i need a new phone -- ive got original droid still -- and if i buy it to keep my unlimited data plan i need to buy it straight up anwyay (they would force me into data caps if i got a subsidized phone... once i got my nexus 7 and was streaming videos with it over wifi, i reached the highest cap they have within a week lol). the nexus 4 would have been amazing for that, if not for lack of 4G

well gla, i think that's why google is pushing "nexus" products, to be thier gold standard. and they are quite good, and made by a range of manufacturers.

the nexus 10 tablet has everything better than the newest ipad (well their rear facing cameras are the same, but other than that) including the display's ppi. although, to be fair, you can't get a data plan for nexus 10 though but why would you with any tablet... similarly the nexus 4 has better hardware the the newest iphone

as for lack of 4G... it's 30mbps. once i used it, no way im not getting 4G phone

The Nexus 4 can work on 4g in Canada just not anywhere else.
