I ordered a new Nexus 4 from the play store last weekend and it is supposed to be delivered the end of this week. In the mean time, I started looking at a few Nexus and Android forums for advice on apps and I seem to find a rash of complaints about this phone:
Screens that crack by themselves
Bluetooth cuts out
Wifi cuts off
Messages won't push to phone when screen is dark
Screens that creak
Battery issues requiring a complete reset of phone ( recommended by Google)
Customers having to RMA multiple times to get one that works properly
Screen turning off during calls
Random rebooting
Buzzing earpiece
These are complaints I have read on multiple threads in different forums by multiple people. Many times the poster says that they have RMA'd the phone, and received a replacement that has the same problem. I am starting to think that this phone is a Beta product and should never have been placed on sale, and am regretting that fact that I ordered one. It would seem that the failure rate in this phone, for an electronic product, could only be called "epidemic". Am I alone in this thinking?
