The design of the nexus is has a premium feel. The back is a glass panel similar to the iphone 4 and 4s with small reflective squares on the back which I think looks nice. The front of the device is flat and has no buttons, the buttons which can be seen on the picture are onscreen buttons, the only physical buttons are around the edge.
Google Nexus 4 review

The nexus 4 is a very good phone for it price at just £239.00 for the 8GB model it is superb value for money. The nexus 4 is quick as it has a quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM, it also has a large screen with almost the same ppi as an Iphone 4 (326 ppi). This phone will get updates before any other non Google devices which means you will have the most up to date android and wont have to wait for the phone carriers to send the update. The main downside to this phone is the lack of 4G and expandable storage. Though lack of expandable storage seems to be more common with modern phones. There is also limited availability at the time of posting this due to the lack of stock.It is rare to see it available to order.


Overall I think that this is a very good phone and would be a purchase that you wouldn't regret. Though there is limited storage there is always ways to store data in the cloud and access it on your phone. Like putting your music on Google music and streaming it to your device. Also at the moment only EE has a 4G network.
