LG Nexus 4
Reviewed by theching14 (Currently owns)
In my opinion, this is the best phone on the market, especially considering the price.
Design (9):
It looks and feels awesome - and is high quality. I would have preferred something other than glass on the back and the speaker is muffled when placed on a table, but those are very minor complaints in an otherwise very well designed phone.
Display (9):
Excellent display that is good in bright light. Since there are 1080 p screens now, I can't give it a perfect score.
Camera(s) (9):
The cameras are great - especially when combined with the photo sphere software which I've taken advantage of more than I thought I would. However, I don't think it's as good as the iPhone 5 camera.
Reception/Call Quality (10):
Great - not much else to say other than gps lock is very fast.
Performance (10):
By far the fastest and snappiest phone that I've ever tested. And it hasn't slowed in the more than 2 months that I've had the phone.
Software (10):
Love Android 4.2 - never thought I'd say this, but the multiple screens on the lock screen is brilliant. It allows the music player to have it's lock screen buttons, and I can swipe to see my normal weather forecast.
Battery Life (8):
I've been happy with my battery life - I've been consistently getting 9-10 hours with 2.5 screen on time and average use. However, I would like to see a lot more, and I think that this is the area where the phone needs the most improvement. Also, it's no where near Motorola's maxx phones.
Ecosystem (10):
I'm pleasantly surprised at the number of new very well designed holo apps that are showing up in the play store.
