Just watched the Nexus 4 advertisement. The side bezel looked really small from the video compared to photos. Cool!

Planning to get 4 units off US Play Store this weekends, anyone wanna fill up the 2 slots so we could share the cost of Sirim as well as forwarder freight?

Just asking though, with or without, I still have to proceed. smile.gif

i thought the sirim cert only for 3 phones only? if u buy 4 phones need to get another sirim cert?
*
4 phones will need 2 Sirim cert, hence 2 available slots, to round it up to 6 units.

that's what i readh in tech blog.. i dont know.. if not, LG mark up the price?

I believe all tech blogs used the word "rumored" ("rumoured" for UK sites)?

Google made that statement, they laugh it off that the idea of subsidising the phones. At most is selling at cost.

See this and 1GB or 2GB also doesn't matter d.

That is storage, not RAM. I will not have direct impact on the performance.

Hi guys... My N4 is arriving soon. So might as well get a decent cover for it.

I have been using the Rearth Ringke Slim for my GNex till today and loves it so much.
Decided to get the slim cover for my N4 as well.

Anyone wanna join in the BULK? so we can split the shipping fees?

And, since you are away from the phone. Why would you needed it to power up to receives sms and etc? Those sms could be auto-retrieved once your phone are powered on (connected to telco).  hmm.gif

Telco only keep your SMS in the inbox for 1 week (if you specify that in your phone settings), otherwise I think they will be deleted within 3-5 days (if you set to max on your phone).

*tested on Maxis Hotlink last time, with Nokia phone. tongue.gif

RM 100 for sirim permit , USD 1 million for the stress that took me 3 hours to place that order with google play on 27th nov, countless email bombardments to google for putting my order in limbo and another  million for themental anguish in the waiting

Damn expensive man, your gadgets.

I can get a bungalow and an Italian sports car with that amount of money.

Pretty good review, even though she never throws it into her handbag for an actually scratch test, but she did mention about the Gorilla glasses.

I don't agree with her on the camera shot with flash, which I find Nexus 4's looked nicer and more balanced on the histogram graph than the S3 does.

Conclusion: battery sucks. lol

Seems like this will be the ONE and ONLY Nexus ever made by LG. Google would be pissed too.
