Galaxy Nexus vs. Nexus 4 (Video)



The Nexus 4 is faster than the Galaxy Nexus in launching apps by about one second in every case

Web browsing performance is about equal, probably because the Nexus 4 uses Chrome, which still isn’t as fast as the stock Android browser

The display quality of the Nexus 4 is better than the Galaxy Nexus, but touch responsiveness is worse because of the use of in-cell display technology

The hardware of the Nexus 4 is more unique and handsome than the Galaxy Nexus, but the Galaxy Nexus seems to have a better in-hand feel thanks to better weighting and grippy textures
Sigh....such videos make me hesitant about upgrading from GN. :(

Nothing u can do. Consumer rights in SG is an utter disgrace.

I've been "whining" to Suckhub about 3G connection for years, and every time they basically say "We're going to improve in time, just wait", which is an outright lie. :)

I just don't understand why 3g speeds in Singapore suffer such a huge difference compared to those in other developed countries..

Does anybody have any news on LG providing warranty for the Nexus 4? Rather than just the servicing they mentioned on the facebook page.

If you can get it cheap, upgrade. If not, wait for the next one. Gnex still gets update. Learn to hold out. i got it because i ddnt get the Gnex.

I am still using Nexus S. Waiting for Google to release more Nexus 4.

I need at least 32GB. Hope google will make one. Will wait and see first. If no news by end of Dec, have to settle with 16GB. haha

The lack of 4G feels like a slap in the face...

4g isnt a big deal for me in SG. 3g still sucks. how much more 4g. maybe 2yrs from now. den time to geta new phone.
16gb, still enough for me. i used 16gb iphone 4s and was good enough.

4G is miles ahead of 3G, there's really no real comparison. 4G signal everywhere and websites load fast.

in Singapore? for now probably fast until everyone start choking it up or maybe not since telcos are so stingy about the data now. i see no use in speed if we don't have the GB we need.

It's either suffer 3G terrible speeds with 12GB you can't even utilise or great 4G speeds with 2GB.

I don't watch/stream videos on the go or download 1GB apks from the Google Store so I'm ok. :)

My first impression. The screen is slightly washed out but it's cool and gentle to the eye. Nice clear screen. Gesture typing is nice!!!
