QUOTE(andrewtho @ Nov 5 2012, 09:09 PM) It's based on one's opinion. Don't jump into conclusions just yet. Heck, it's not even released in the US also. Ps: messy quotings above. Pening yeah,ppl should'nt be so jacked up about the price,wait until lg malaysia oficially announce it.if cant afford it,  wait until iphone 5 comes out.by that time other quad core flagship will be cheaper.

http://www.androidauthority.com/nexus-business-model-128423/QUOTE How then is Google selling the 16 GB model [of the Nexus 4] for just $349? Easy, Google isn’t making any money on the hardware. In case you haven’t noticed by now, Google is an advertising company. During the third quarter of 2012, 94% of their revenue came from ads. In other words, Google’s in the business of showing you little blue links for <removed>. They make compelling services that are addictive and charge nothing for them because at the end of the day it’s the ads that are displayed within those services that make the company money. QUOTE Talking about electronics stores, the Spanish retailer Phone House has recently said that they’re not going to sell the Nexus 4 because LG wants them to price it at 599 EUR. Meanwhile, Google is selling the Nexus 4 in Spain for 350 EUR online. I still remember Galaxy Nexus was launched in Malaysia with a 2k+- price tag, while it's sold in Google Play for 399USD. So don't hold your breath.

Not really an issue, i never have battery problem unless it wear out after 2 years maybe? By that time the phone itself might ald recycled.. Non-removable batt can be make super slim & lightweight, y not? LOL QUOTE(andrewtho @ Nov 6 2012, 12:21 PM) So what? iPhones don't even have removable batteries since the first model too.

Normally after 1 year the battery power will deteriorate. Somehow still prefer removable battery for the same reason.

LG Malaysia themselves have not even give out an official statement regarding the price of the Nexus 4, what makes you so sure that it WILL? EU pricing may not be applicable for every country, mind you.
