QUOTE(benny888 @ Dec 13 2012, 07:56 AM) The laggy touchscreen based on earlier web reviews is always there due to the LCD construction n nothing to do with software I follow android authority review about nexus 4. Touchscreen laggy is not a sotware problem, but problem only appear when using google chrome. |

I'm one of the unlucky ones who ordered 3 weeks ago still no news, whereas every day ppl are saying "oh yeah baby I ordered on 9th Dec and shipped on 11th Dec liao." Meanwhile my other more recent orders all go into "pre-ordered" status on play store  |

Same here, my 27 nov, 1-2 week order had its status changed to pre-ordered from pending today. And according to the xda guys, it's a prelude to a new charge to replace the expired floating charge on the credit card earlier. If ok, a shipping confirmation is finally due today.Meanwhile my other more recent orders all go into "pre-ordered" status on play store I've tried the reorder lottery and nay, it didn't work. |

QUOTE(sexbomb @ Dec 13 2012, 12:00 PM) thanks for the review, watched a few long comparison on utube about the nexus4 vs s3 and the s3 seems to top it everytime. for me i dont mind a little flaw, if the price is good. still gonna be way better than my dino-ifon3g yea same here, for that price, a lil flaw is totally fine for a nexus. aite thx for the info~ hope it does arrive around christmas time as said in LG's fb page im just worried about the price  I doubt that LG will sell it below RM1500 and they probably let telcos to launch it instead. I'll just place the order at play store 1st, by the time LG launching I will still have a choice whether to cancel the order or not since google ships it in 6-7 weeks. The only concern of that would be warranty issue. |

QUOTE(Norameen @ Dec 13 2012, 05:47 AM) nice review..it helps me make up my mind ..thanks..... so what's on ur mind ?  QUOTE(ogiveyakuza @ Dec 13 2012, 06:37 AM) Sell urs to me, might help u a lot help me some more by offering me rm2-3k for this phone.  btw overall i'm happy with the phone, and i think i gonna stick with it until better phone come out from htc / samsung. QUOTE(ellimist @ Dec 13 2012, 07:52 AM) Nice review, great to see some honest opinions about touch responsiveness as well. Interesting that phone tends to get laggy over time, it does have 2gb of ram right? QUOTE(benny888 @ Dec 13 2012, 07:56 AM) The laggy touchscreen based on earlier web reviews is always there due to the LCD construction n nothing to do with software yups. the same thing happens on iPhone 5.in terms of lagginess that i mentioned above, it normally relates to 3rd party apps. that app does not responding, but the phone itself is okay. i can press home button and do other thing like swiping or open menu screen. i have the same apps on my note2 but never experience such issue. perhaps it's just incompatibility issue between that apps and android 4.2.1? |

although the lcd construction is like iphone5, and most reviews said the irresponsive touch screen happens on both, I must stress it's much more serious on nexus 4.
and I'm not and never an iPhone die hard fan. |
