UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

[ivrimon]

Could be, or I was just one of the lucky few. It just arrived, so I best get on with setting it up

Luckily setting up doesn't take too long anymore so you'll be able to play soon . Though, I wish Google made a desktop client to sync music instead of doing it over the Internet. Would have made my setup so much quicker.

I just tried out photosphere and it worked a lot better than I expected. Still getting used to the size as it dwarves my last phone!

Good isn't it?? Sorry for those guys who haven't got theirs yet

Yes GadgetHoney I really like its sleek look. Shame to bulk up with cover but will probably go for flip case. Any more recommendations anyone?

Will try to post some photos later. I'm sure it won't be long for people still waiting.

BTW thank you very much for starting this thread. It's been great to share the agony and the ecstasy with fellow 6th Decembers!

Attempt to add a link to photo. Does it work? Quick snaps taken without playing with any settings. Not as sharp as I would like!

It was super simple, though the Nexus 4 did decide to use my Nexus 7's static ip address, even after I specified a different one.

I wish Google made a desktop client to sync music instead of doing it over the Internet.

Have you tried the Winamp app? I believe it syncs music between the desktop & mobile versions

Yea the crap case I bought is a no no! Had to make do with an equally crappy plastic cover (non flip) that I bought only cos it came with a free screen protector! Not bad for around ?2! So need to reinvest in a better flip case. Probably the one I originally saw. The screen is a real treat. It's also light and really really fast!!!

Hi all, got mine at last, but had to go to TNT depot as driver did not get to me due to delays caused by snow. First impressions very good but forgot I need a micro Sim. Makes my HTC Desire seem very tired.

My previous phone was the HTC Desire as well. I agree, it is a major upgrade.

Hi Desire was ok but over time became unreliable and unresponsive. More recently the camera failed! Still getting to know N4 but it looks very promising!

Reposting of link to photos as some problem with original.

hello!
I ordered a leather case from Expansys UK on 6th Dec - little expensive but I want that only
I used one like this for my Desire, it lasted really well and did a grt job for 2+ years - the old phone is still spotless

(PDair Leather Case for LG Nexus 4 (Vertical Pouch Type, Black) - Expansys.com UK)
They still do not have it in the stock - horrible customer service!
Now just have ordered a ?1.49 from Amazon until the leather one arrives later

Yea thanks saw that one. But just ordered this one. Looks like good quality StilGut, UltraSlim, executive case crafted from genuine leather for Google Nexus 4 / LG E960 Mako, in black:Amazon:Computers & Accessories

I love this damn phone, and if you guys want a good flip case get the poetic slimbook, its a really nice case, i've got it myslef

The headphone jack on my Desire died a few weeks ago and I kept running out of space so constantly had to delete apps.

I love my N4 but it hasn't left the house yet because my neighbourhood is currently a giant sheet of ice. I'm waiting until a) my case arrives and b) I can move around without slipping over!

After seven weeks from 6th Dec, the little beauty arrived this morning. Fired up and all's well with the world now. Just waiting for the Shenit Bumper Case to arrive from Hong Kong. I ordered a couple of weeks ago as it looks exactly the same as the 'Official' version which is of course unobtainable, but is half the price. The old HTC Desire has served well over the last couple of years but like barquentine says, kept running out of memory. the 16 gig should be more than ample for me.
