Nexus 4 - Did you get it yet?
JoonasTo:
Kind of off-topic but why would you go for 1080p videos on a 768p screen? Seems waste of battery to me.

edit: rather than being a waste of battery its a waste of precious 16GB of free space, nexus4 doesn't have the luxury of expanding it's storage space.

Which does suck certainly for the storage feature.
Played Guilty Crown 720p BD from Doki without problems. No stutters. So now it's really just the ... encode? on My Little Monster.

Phone died today.
Ordered. Found a cheap unlimited data plan that looks like will get a 20Mb connection. HDD size sorted, just stream everything :P

looks like it, i tried playing it on my PC too and CPU usage spikes to over 30%, for a 720P thats quite weird, only 1080P and only Hi10P high bitrate encodes does that to my PC.
