Is there anyone with a Nexus 4 without any imperfections on the chrome bezel?

Just wondering since I haven't seen one yet.

What kind if imperfections are you talking about? I haven't seen anything noticeable on mine. It seems perfect to me.

No problem with mine either.

There is a bit of an accumulation of the chrome it seems on the left side near the top of the volume rocker. You can see it when you hold it with the screen facing towards you and more easily with good lighting.

I still don't see anything.

I have the exact same thing! I thought I'd caused it, but it's on the same spot. It looks more like very tiny bubbles.

There are multiple hardware iterations of the nexus 4, which I assume have systematically fixed problems like the speakers, nibs on the back, chrome imperfections, etc. Having bought mine just a few weeks ago I haven't experienced any of these problems with my Nexus 4

Yeah, I feel kinda bad about it since I bought mine about a week ago and it's got this imperfection. I got it replaced, but I guess the whole batch has it.

If you bought from Google Play they have a pretty easy return policy so long as you are within 14 days of delivery. There is a 15 percent restock fee.

Unfortunately I live in the Netherlands and bought it from a local retailer called Coolblue. They were already reluctant about the first return...

Just some words of wisdom. If you are one of those people that have an issue with imperfections on your devices (I'm not judging because I am one of them) then you shouldn't scour your device for dings and scratches. It will only drive you nuts. The old adage if you look for it you will surely find it applies here. Just out a case in it when you get it and don't look at it too much.

Owning an electron microscope make it even worse.

I never looked at the bezel close enough to notice and I really didn't care. It's a phone, it will get some scratches with normal usage.

 

[Nathan-NL]

Yeah, you are right. But I don't like buying a scratched phone for the price of a mint one.

 

[Fairclough]

Perfect, cannot agree more with the posts above. Damage will always occur unless you build your phone out of sand.

 

[Nathan-NL]

Yes, but this is factory damage.

I don't know because I can't be bothered to spare the energy to take it out of its case to check.

And what rev do the people with a perfect Nexus 4 have?

Nothing wrong with mine, which is from the second ordering round back in November.
