LG Nexus 4 phone coming on Oct 29th?

[Tonestar1]

I was determined to go for the iphone 5 but having read these reviews it's just too good and too cheap not to go for. Running costs are pennies compared to every rival, especially if you use quidco for a 12 month only sim from voda.

Nexus 4 16GB at £290

Vodafone £20.50 12 month sim only contract.

900 mins

1Gb data

Unlimited txt

Annual Cost £246

Quidco cashbach £120

Annual cost reduced to £126

Total 12 month running cost of £416 or £34.67 per month, plus you have a Nexus 4 to sell or keep at the end of 12 months.

If you decide to keep the N4 for another year, move to giff gaff and save even more.

Edited to reformat. First post was mighty confusing.

Well that was easy!

Phoned up Orange Business, said I was on a SIM only plan and was getting a new phone that needed a microSIM. The woman from Orange asked which one, I said a Nexus 4. They couldn't find this in their system (I wasn't that surprised as it's a direct sale phone) and she said "No matter, it'll take the same microSIM as an iPhone 4, I'll order you one of those. Do you have a data plan?" I said I had a 1GB plan (which I want to keep!) and after she found I was happy with that and didn't go over it she said my new SIM should be with me in 3-4 days.

Simples :bounce:

Looks like it is good.

Really impressed. Feels better quality than the One X it's replaced, and makes the missus SGS III look and feel like a kiddies toy.

Just been streaming Tron Legacy (1080i recording) and the screen is superb, it doesn't have the 'pop' of One X, but would say the colours are more natural looking.

Being vanilla Android, it feels far slicker to use than the One X.

Used to be a big fan of Sense, but from ICS onwards (and since getting the 7 and now 4) vanilla Android had really improved and there's no need for OEM bloat, custom launchers and ROMs...

Sounds good, people have starting selling them on eBay looking to make a quick buck!

 

[daveh75]

Yes i know, and they're going for silly money too. Though i suspect Ebay may have to put a stop to it...

A 16gb one is up to £570 on the Bay, I missed out on a trick there!

£770 winning bid! Why so high?

More money than sense? Anyone that desperate could walk into CPW and pick one up immediately (on contract) for similar money (24mnths @ £33 = £792) or £399 pay as you go (though not sure about availability in store, as they're only offering them on contract in store at my local CPW)

I reckon. Cheers for the info.

I managed to have a play with the Nexus 4 in the O2 shop today, Blimey it is massive! Didn't realise it was so big! Couldn't work out how to use it, ended up taking a photo of myself! Lol.

Oops! Quickly got out the shop then!
