I'll be heading on an overseas adventure, and I'm in the market for my first smartphone ever (believe it or not). I was wondering if the Nexus 4 would be a good choice, or if someone had another recommendation.
I'd be using it mainly for Google Maps, to get directions from point A to point B. Also to check on reviews of accommodations/restaurants, translation apps, browsing the net for info, etc. The usual travel stuff. Battery life is important.
Related question: I'll end up staying long term in various countries. I was wondering how that would work in terms of a date plan for the phone? Would I just buy pre-paid SIMS in each country, or sign up for a monthly plan in each country, then cancel when I leave?
Any replies would be much appreciated.
