"Better than expected" By GUERRILLA25REAL on April 13, 2013
When the Nexus 4 was first released, I wanted it really badly. Unfortunately, I could not get my hands on one due to the stock shortages. I watched plenty of reviews on the phone and I had concluded that it ran nice software but was probably a very cheap feeling phone. I was wrong. The Nexus 4 feels excellent in the hand and the screen is amazing! Even though the screen is 4.7in, it is easy to reach every part of the display because of the great form factor. The glass on the screen curves at the edges of the phone so swiping gestures are very smooth! Another bonus for the screen is that it is super smooth; my fingers just glide around. In order to use the screen you need some juice! The battery life hasn't been fantastic but has been better than originally expected. I usually get about 14hrs out of it with 3hrs of heavy screen on time. It is an excellent phone that should last awhile!
