I saw one at my daughter's daycare recital last week. I asked the dad about it. He had ordered it the first day and waited 3 weeks.
Sorry if this thread has been done before. But has anyone seen a Nexus 4 in the wild besides the one they own? I haven't but I'm always looking.
Before I bought mine 2 people at work had them..
Bought mine off of one of them.. The other was sold to someone else in the store.
I work in Geek Squad.. The other went to a Best Buy Mobile employee.
Lol...
He thinks its the best and we compare a lot.. He gets Fantastic battery I get horrible.. Lol. Quite funny.

I haven't seen anything but yesterday when I went to t-mobile to get my sim card changed the girl who did it kept repeating how beautiful the phone was and what a great screen it had.
Honestly I don't ever expect to see one in the wild. My coworkers have seen my phone and when asked what it is, I tell them and they never heard of it. All everyone knows is GS3 or iPhone.

I haven't. But its kinda difficult to distinguish this from the galaxy nexus if you don't see the back

Yeah, only real difference is the earpiece location. I keep getting them confused on the front
The only nexus 4 I've seen in the wild is the one I have and the one I sent back lol I like that fact that a lot of people don't have the phone reminds me of when I had my nexus one and no one knew what phone I had

Haven't, but a friend ordered one and is waiting on it to ship. Another friend got an N10 and adores it.
I will admit that it's been a long road to 4.2 and the N4. Three years ago, the entire Android ecosystem was different and the hardware to push what we wanted out of phones wasn't correlating to those capabilities. Now we're past that point. This year was a huge turning point. Once we start seeing A15 based CPU's in phones, the hardware capabilities will be beyond what we now expect.
A fellow at my work (site with a couple hundred employees) had one that he ordered in the first 10 minutes they'd gone on sale and received within a few days IIRC. (Jerk.) He was showing it to another fellow in the kitchen area and I recognized it for what it was. That night I went home and got the email that they'd start shipping that week and had it a couple of days later. Haven't seen another one and most people don't seem to realize what's special about it when I show it to them.
OTOH, I'm seeing TONS of GS3s. I can name five friends/co-workers who have them off the top of my head. Meanwhile, there are still people excited about getting an iPhone for some reason. I occasionally see someone celebrating getting one on Facebook and I have to resist the urge to point out that it's not 2009 anymore and when everyone has something, you're not special when you get one too. At this diner I had breakfast at today for the second time, every. single. freaking. other. customer. has had an iPhone. I'm sitting there with my N4 and these poor saps are squinting at their dinky iPhone 4s and I wonder why they bother living.
And people wonder why they can't see anything on their iPhone. Their screens are way too small.
