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

[frettfreak]

What I really want to know is how does the camera compare to the HTC One camera?

 

[willgfc]

Those photo samples make the camera look pretty damn sweet.
This is the first time ever I have seriously considered buying a phone outright instead of getting it on contract

Does it use mini or micro sim?

Google didn't mentionned it, so I ask to be sure : does it supports USB OTG?
Also, in your opinion, will we have accessories such as docks or MHL adapaters? (because Samsung promised accessories for the GNexus but they never came out :/)

Mini SIM? I didn't know it exists
It's Micro SIM, same as iPhone 4/4S.

wow, if those are real, I am impressed. especially after how the optimus g 8mp shooter has performed. there must be some major software tweaks...

It's a completely different camera sensor in the Nexus 4 than in the Optimus G. Nexus 4 uses a Sony 8MP BSI sensor at a supposed f/2.4 aperture.

I'm sure there's also software tweaks though too. With the revamped camera app in 4.2 it seems like Google is taking photos a little more seriously now.

will there be an upgraded model in the future like a 32 gig version I don't really care for lte since its not im my town yet? I don't want to buy this and then find out that there's going to be a new one coming out , like I did when i bought my nexus 7 and hiw there's a 32 version now

Well, it's logic that Google takes it seriously, most users takes a lot of photos with their smartphones now. And yes, the new camera app looks great! (but it could be disappointing for newbies)

Can you run an app from the play store, like 'GPS Test', to test for GLONASS satellites?

Actually, I think he confused Micro and Nano SIM.

The ATT Optimus G has the same Sony 8mp 2.4 lens- I am almost positive of this. anyone else have confirmation? Either way, those pics look much better than on the Optimus G- could be LG does not have strong software to support the sony lens.

when can we expect a full review?

I think you confused SIM and Mini-SIM

Original SIM = Creditcard sized plastic card
Mini SIM = What people usually regard as "normal SIM"
Micro SIM = The one for SGS3, iPhone 4S, etc. (Also the Nexus 4)
Nano Sim = The one currently only in use by the iPhone 5.

Edit: A question if it hasn't already been asked, is there any noticable backlight bleed?

We should disassemble the Nexus 4 to check if it's the same sensor as AT&T Optimus G
For the software, LG always sucked with it. I'm glad it's pure AOSP and directly supported by Google.

Please compare it to the GNex. I bought one recently and I am wondering, if I should sell it again. The N4 does not cost much more.

Also, can you please find out what could be done when the battery needs to be replaced (when it is showing age, not because running out of juice)? Could it be replaced by opening the phone (like some other phones with "normally" non-replacable batteries) or does it have to be send to Google/LG? Can you probably open the phone and make pictures from the inside? Thanks!

 

[michaelschiffer]

Right now I have the worst samsung phone ever made, the Droid Charge, and I'm due for an upgrade. Is it worth buying an unlocked Nexus 4 and using At&t in the North East? or should I go Galaxy S3?? I have Verizon

Please reply,

Thanks

Oh, I dind't know SIM was for the credit-card sized SIM. And I'm kind of too young to have known these SIM cards

Do you ever get confused for John Belushi when you're out in public? =)
