Best way to show off your Nexus 4?

If someone asks "whoah! You have a Nexus4?!?!? Sweet! Can I check it out?" You say "Sure, have at it" and hand it over. Done. No need to showboat...unless you're a ******.
 
I guess. Then there are the normal people that like to have nice things and "show them off" to other people. Sure, senior citizens don't care much, but that's another story. They are allowed to not care.

Who buys stuff to show it off? How shallow are you? I get what I want for myself and I could give a crap what people like

Yeah, only I really didn't have it with me.

Yeah you are totally right. No one said ANYTHING about buying it just to show off. You buy it cause YOU like it. Being able to show it off is a plus. You buy a lambo cause you want it...the stares that come with it are just gonna happen whether you like it or not.
 
What about apps? Any suggestions on cool apps that push the phone's capabilities?

I was thinking GTA3 or something along those lines.... something that gets the 'damn, that's pretty cool'?

Pretty accurate. I bought my mustang because I wanted it in grabber blue because that's what I wanted. I didn't go there thinking hmmmm how am I gonna show those off that's just lame. Same thing with my SGS3 or nexus 7 I didn't buy it to show it off
 
Like the others said just get what you like. The phone will do the rest. You won't have to have a public viewing.
 
On behalf of some under-aged members of this forum, I state the following with the pretense of raising confidence in the younger members. Not all under aged teenagers as I are tech-fanatics and aren't sucked into such pretenses with his or her companions. Man, that was really formal. Well to dumb it down, I'm not like what you said about (showing off and being a dick about it) and i'm 16.

Good on you
 
There's really nothing extraordinary (other than photosphere) to show off about the N4 right now. It's an exceptional phone, but so are the Galaxy S3 and many others. That said, if I were so inclined, I'd be looking forward to about 2 years down the road to demonstrating how my N4 (if I still have it) will have 'just' been upgraded to 'Macaroon' or whatever that rendition will be, while people who'd bought their phones just a few month prior to that future time will still be stuck on 'Key Lime.'

Best thing about the N4, imo, is that even when its hardware starts to fall notably behind other more newly released phones, its overall value will still generally leapfrog them as it receives major software updates faster and beyond those its competitors will receive.
 
I'm secure with my phone purchase and don't need to seek the envy of others to validate what a good phone I have. Just a smile of content on my part is all I need.
 
If they have an iPhone its easy to show off. My friend couldn't even upload movies to his Facebook.
 
So you got your brand new N4 and want to show it off to your friends.....

What do you show them first? And what get's the 'wow - that's pretty cool'?

Are there any features of the phone that are best of show? How about apps that really pop? Or something that no other phone can do, perhaps photosphere?

Competing systems are Samsung Galaxy S3 and iPhone5.

I've got my Nexus 4 and I'm looking for ideas that are sure to cause phone envy.

If you do that in my neighborhood, someone just might decide to make your phone his.
