The Nexus 4 Thread

[lamezy23]

Dunno if zekai referring to this news.

Will singapore be 1 of the 50 countries by end May?

Is the Nexus 4 about to get a boost?

So here's me tracing the news source.

From the link you provided,

1. Is the Nexus 4 about to get a boost? [dated 22/04/13]

said that this site:

2. 32GB Nexus 4 With LTE Chip Reportedly Set To Be Announced At Google I/O | Redmond Pie [dated 20/04/13]

said that this site:

3. Nexus 4 with LTE and Android 5.0 said to debut at Google IO 2013 | News | TechRadar [dated 19/04/13]

said that this site:

4. 32GB LG Nexus 4 LTE With Android 5.0 At I/O, Not Nexus 5? | SidhTech [dated 18/04/13]

reported that they heard a rumour going around that a 32GB LTE Nexus 4 will be released this May.

Note that number 4, an article written on 18/04/13 quoted a forum post, I repeat, a forum post from Android Central (which I regard as a reputable site) here:

5. Sprint Nexus 4 - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

which was dated 21/11/12

By the way, even if all that's true, I doubt LG SG will start selling the Nexus 4 here. They're too preoccupied with their own Optimus line.

Hi guys, just got my nexus 4 for less than a week, but I realised my phone is always very warm to the touch even on just viewing hardwarezone using aosp browser or chrome

my CPU temp is always around 50 degree is this normal?

I doubt that it is.

I get around 30s to 34s when it's on idle.

It jumps to the 37s when I've been using Chrome for some time.

will the price for 32gb be higher than the 16gb if it is released at may.

nope! its very likely the 16GB will be cheaper than the 32GB~! because less is more! more is less!

 

[expositox]

Based on past Nexus sales, 32GB will be sold @ current 16GB price, 16GB's price will be reduced.

But I don't think they'll release a 'new' N4. Great way to piss those 16GB buyers off.

 

[kennyboy]

There's no restriction? Really? Okay will apply for one. Thanks for the info

Last time on iOS used to pay 130% of the original price for apple's gift cards because they're not sold in SG, if I knew could use debit, would've used it long ago lol..

I presume you are at least 16 yrs old? And it will be linked to ur current bank account.

Don't think too much. Nexus 7 also similar fate.

No debit. Only got normal ATM card. Underage for PayPal

If you above 16, can go bank change to a debit card.

Do consult your parents first as they may feel offended..

Most likely 32gb will take the current 16gb price, then the 16gb will take the current 8gb price. 8gb will be EOL.

Hope that 32gb doesn't come out

Lol this is funny. Shows exactly how news work. When lies are repeated too often, they become the "truth". LG previously already stated that they are not launching Nexus 4 here. Google shouldn't have picked LG as a partner..........

Don't think they'll allow.. they don't lend me their CC in their first place as they're afraid I might anyhow buy stuff. If I use their CC at least they can track my expenditure but if I get debit, I myself know I'll spent a lot.

Btw, any websites selling Google Play cards? I don't care if they're overpriced lol.

Precisely.

IMO LG > Samsuck. I'm extremely biased against SS, I refuse to buy any of their phones until they stop using cheap plastic. Just look at the previous Galaxy Nexus. Yes it has removable (and this expandable) battery but the build quality is ASDDGHJKL, it just screams PLASTIC PLASTIC.

I think the plastic saved my screen a few times, but i still don't like how it felt cheap...

Problem about debit card is, if the merchant do a pre-auth, ur $$ in ur savings account will be "reserved" by them, hence can see the $$ but cannot use.
