I have a Nexus 4, you have questions. Fire away.

[Astagar]

What about DLNA support?

 

[blackmannx#AC]

Does the native video player was updated? If yes, can it play formats such as H/X264, XviD and MKS-encapsuled videos natively?

it does not... sorry.

 

[TheUI]

Phil, will there be anything to complain about? If not, I may have to go back to reading books instead of web battles.

 

[Paper_Tiger77]

I always ask that of all my prey.

Well played sir

 

[mzanette]

What about DLNA support?

I believe it's Miracast enabled, have no idea about DLNA but haven't heard anything about that. The Optimus G has miracast technology so I assume this does too.

Edit: Hmm, some googling has revealed the Optimus G has DLNA too...interesting.

No. The front is Gorrilla Glass 2. The back is "not glass".

Have you tried miracast wireless display? How is the performance? Are you planning to cover it in your full review?

thanks

the Miracast works quite nice in real life depending on the content. Some higher bit rate looks a lil choppy to me but I am a home theater nut and most others dont notice it...

 

[ymshulman]

About the new lockscreen widgets... can you add any widget?

 

[blackmannx#AC]

does the nexus 4 have all the Gnex languages?

yes.. n it speaks them quite well.

 

[yanes]

what about new dictionarys? let's say..for hebrew?

 

[anon(847090)]

I am checking the front page every 10 minutes to see if phil posted the review

[asianrage]

I would also put the Lumia920 in there, cause it seams to have one of the best screens out there

Oh yeah, let's ask him to compare the screen to a non-announced, not-soon-to-be-released product on a different platform.

A non removable battery is the same as a removable battery except that you can't remove it. So ask yourself why you need to remove your battery at all, and if the answer is an absolute MUST ability to remove the battery then you have your answer. But I personally can't think of a reason that you need to do so.

The battery is plenty big. I use it all day and it lasts about 10 hours. there are always small external battery packs if needed or maybe this device isnt for you and a device like the Maxx or one with a removable battery would work.

Does anyone know how the internal audio (through headphones) is? Perhaps compared to the international Galaxy S III?

A few questions:
* can you still set up a wifi hotspot? (Galaxy Nexus seemed to allow for this regardless of carrier plan)?
yep..
* how well/quickly does the GPS lock in?
less then 15 secs in most places.. much better then the gnex
* did the wireless charging unit come with it? or is that extra? how long does it take to charge?
its extra and wireless charging will take longer then plug in.. I dont have a puck so I cant confirm the exact time.
* how well does the "swype-like keyboard" work? how well does predictions work compared to Swiftkey?
works really well. I will say that I feel that swype has a better learning system.. either that or my phone shuns my potty mouth..
* how well does the new panorama camera feature work?

works really well, the photosphere is a really new feature that I hope users like... it makes some shots truly epic
