Nexus 4 - Did you get it yet?
bloody000:
So I've been playing with mine since Monday and I am overall impressed by how fast and nice the phone is with two exceptions: poor touch sensitivity(caused in part by firmware according to xda people) and poor color(especially skin tone, people all look like they have jaundice).

Just had to take a look at this thread after reading such a bold title that suggested that there is an item out there that everyone must have, but not everyone does, "yet".
Then I had to google "Nexus 4" (no pun intended). Now with a knowledge that we are talking about another brick of a smartphone... and probably the severe lack of imagination among the designers that have been making these phones lately, I dug for important specification info.
Glass cover on all sides, obviously making it fail the drop test miserably.touch screen is the ever popular capacitive type which does not work in cold conditions and not if you have gloves on.
With both the durability and local temperature in mind, this is not an item I will be getting yet or any time until the global warming put local average winter temperature above zero degrees and pavement is made of soft rubber instead of asphalt.

Get a good screen protector and a good thick case ... a TPC case. This phone is super awesome for the price thou' I still dislike the fact that it doesn't have SD slots.
Looking forward to google's new phone this holiday ... and Android 5.0!

Doesn't just about every phone fail it these days? You can't expect a touch screen phone of that size to survive tbh, and mine ain't leaving the house until I get a thick leather wallet case to house it.

Oh, they exist, mostly by really unknown companies with outrageous prices geared towards work related environment.
