New Phone - Nexus 4 -


I am sure most of you are aware of the New Google Nexus 4. But in case you are not aware due to hectic life, workloads, family commitment, blah blah blah... here are some info.

The new Nexus 4 are the latest Google Phone produced in partnership with LG Mobile. It was supposed to be officially launched on the 26th October 2012 during the Google Event. Unfortunately, the event was called off since Sandy came earlier to US. Who is Sandy anyway, hmm... her full name was Hurricane Sandy. Hurricane Sandy was a tropical cyclone that are very much interested with the Google Event. Many was curious on why I said so... reason? As mentioned, she came in a rush and destroy everything that was in her way.... Haha... Sorry for the lame joke. Anyway, I really feel sorry for those who are affected, let's pray that everything will goes back to normal.

Ok. Enough of Sandy. I should focus on the Nexus 4 since he is the real starring for the day!

Let's share some of the features of Nexus 4.

Software
Android 4.2 Jelly Bean

Nothing special?
Wait till I drill down to the details...

While Apple was very proud with their Retina Display on the iPhones, the Nexus 4 comes with a WXGA IPS Screen that offers resolution of 320 ppi which is only 6ppi lesser than the new iPhone 5 (326ppi). This would means that with a bigger screen of 4.7", Nexus 4 will definitely impress the on lookers. 

As for the battery capacity, it's the same as the Samsung Galaxy S3 at 2100mAh. However, due to the lack of LTE technology with the Nexus 4, it is expected that the battery will last longer than S3 as the current LTE technology are a pure battery drainer. While the speed of LTE are fast, they are also fast in draining the battery capacity. With Google taking off the feature, it might not be a bad idea.

With Android 4.2 Jelly Bean comes as the stock ROM, the Nexus 4 offering better features as compare to the Galaxy S3. With the latest Google Apps, you will be enjoying a brand new experience in using Android. Gone are the days where all the flaws are been seen in the OS, but with Jelly Bean 4.2, you can rest assured that you will be a happier person using the Smartphone. 

Another feature of Jelly Bean 4.2 worth to be share is the AMAZING PHOTO SPHERE CAMERA!!! With Nexus 4, you can take a 360 degree panoramic photos !!! This is the 1st phone which offer a full 360 degrees experience. You can even feel that you are there while looking on it.

Oh, before I forget, the recommended retail price are USD 299 for the 8GB and USD 349 for the 16GB. Are you going to get one? I sure interested. So let's see how it goes when it reaches our shore. Will grab one if the price is lower than RM1200!

That's all for tonight. 

See ya...
