This is my first nexus device so I can't really answer your question but I know the nexus 4 blows all the android devices on ATT out of the water.

I like this phone more than my gnex except for not having a removable battery. It's much faster than both of my last 2 phones.

Yeah, I am perfectly happy with the Nexus 4 as well.
Initially didnt intend to upgrade from the Galaxy Nexus, but then that one died a painful, painful death on a Bar Counter.
Couldn't be happier, it feels extremely solid and is fast as hell. With the custom kernels out there you get the battery to get you through the day, I dont need anything else.
I have had the Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and now the N4. Hands down it is a better device. It feels like a premium device, rock solid with no squeaks etc.
You can keep holding out for better devices, but then you will never buy one! Bigger and better phones are always around the corner.
Besides, the differences now are so small, it really doesn't make sense to wait.

yeah definetely.
had the Galaxy Nexus, and altough I really liked, it doesnt feel like the N4.. and once you have the N4. the GN with that plastic back starts to look like a cheap cell
Im using my gnex while my N4 is charging and yes the N4 feels superior than my gnex, way faster too... The N4 is the best Nexus to date!

Best device I've used.

I miss the curved screen on my GNex. Otherwise I'm very happy to have made the upgrade. There isn't anything I have thrown at this phone which it can't handle.
I have owned all of the Nexi except the Nexus S.

I ask because this is the only nexus I've owned and I think I'll only replace it with another nexus. I came from a galaxy s 4g so yes my nexus is much faster, I like the feel of the custom roms the utility of the phone.

Best for me and I always prefer the latest Nexus!
I have actually owned the original Nexus One, Nexus S, and the Galaxy Nexus, and now the Nexus 4.
My top 2 choices would have to be the HTC One, but the N4 is the best with the Nexus S being 4th place.
I've had every nexus phone and it's my personal favorite and objectively the best all around Nexus device.
I do miss the car dock for the Nexus One though, who do we have to kill to get an inductive charging bluetooth car dock for the N4?
I've owned the nexus one, galaxy nexus and now the N4.
N4 gives me the same feel as the nexus one did when I first go it. Mainly "WOW. THIS IS AMAZING." Something that the GN couldn't do. Perhaps it's my samsung hatred.
But yeah, the N4 is by far the best nexus i've ever had.
Yeah it is. But Nexus One blew my mind when it came out. So to me its the best
This being my 3rd Nexus of course it is :good::good::good::good::good::good:

So I have seen the commercial for the new note 10.1 and its new feature, multiscreen. Is there any way to get this feature on the nexus 7? That's something I have been wanting since tablets have come out, it would be so handy to run two apps side by side.

I believe that's a touch wiz thing but I'm not sure.
There was one but it was never really taken up.

I loved the camera effects for the galaxy nexus and used them regularly. I was just wondering if I could some how get them into my nexus 4

I was wondering the same thing myself. I remember seeing this feature demoed on the GN but couldn't find it on the N4.
this deserves some looking into, I wanna see big eyed videos!

Actually with the gnex on 4.2 up I don't see it already. Ever since the camera became similar to the n4 the effects have gone. Either that or I'm doing something wrong because I can't get it to show anymore on my old gnex

I think they took away the feature from 4.2 onward cuz they thought it wasn't worth the gimmick.
But you can try to rename the Gallery2.apk from a Galaxy Nexus 4.1 rom or older and install it to the N4 and see if it work, maybe not though since it might not have the correct camera driver.
Dropping Sprint (have given them 3yrs to "fix" coverage in my area) and my Note 2. Going to T-Mobile and a Nexus 4. Anyone gone from a note 2 to a nexus 4?
I've went from a N4 to a note 2 and then back to my N4 . Both great devices the note is just to big

I did the same as the guy above. I bought it about a month ago and really didn't like how AMOLED displayed whites. When comparing displays, I thought the nexus was much better.
Also, I didn't find the spen to be all that useful, although came in handy once or twice. The phones are pretty equal in terms of speed. Battery life is much better on the note, camera is much better on the note, and the display size didn't make it stand out IMO. They have the same resolution so it displayed the same amount of stuff.
I figured the note would be out dated around August when the note 3 comes out and the nexus will continue to be updated for a while.

I just traded my note 2 for the N4 I have now. Couldn't be happier. Even with the drop in specs/screen. I love this damn phone.

Agree, for flashing hoolic like me, I prefer Nexxus 4 the awesome device ..
I just feel its so much more comfortable to use. I used the note 2 for a week straight to see if I could get used to it but it just didn't feel right . To me the only thing that's great on the note is the battery life.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I have nevered used a Note before but I'd like to try it. The batter battery life and camera are huge attractions to me. It's just the size that I feel will be too big for me as I have a Nexus 7 already.

Once you go Note, you can't go back. I miss the size of the Note 1's screen and still not used to the Nexus 4 (had it since Dec). The Note 2 basically fixes all the problems of the Note 1, but costs $700. I didn't want to spend that much so I "settled" for a Nexus 4. For the price, the Nexus 4 is worth it, but I would have bought a Note for the same price.
I have had both. I don't understand how someone can say the note 2 has a better camera.
Only pros of note 2 : better battery. S-pen , Case options . Bigger screen & features 'if' that is for you.
Other than that, that's it.

Nothing quite like some guy with an otterbox defender on a note 2, holding the phone to his ear. It's one of the most ridiculous things to witness. It's kinda like me holding my N7 to my face like I'm making a call. Hilarious.
I used Note 2 for six months and I loved it then sold it and got N4. I miss the Note 2's camera and big screen but N4 is much better looking phone with much professional built quality. I will keep N4 for a while.
I went from a note 1 to an n4 after 3 months. Just couldn't get used to the size of the note. The n4 works much better for me.

Sold mine for this. Not going back. The hardware on the galaxy nexus won't live to see another year I'm afraid.

i use both my n4 and gnex, but keep the sim in the n4.
I loved my GNex but my N4 is leaps and bounds better. I can't think of any reason I'd go back.
Why?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
As fan of nexus series can't see any point to return on Gnex (I had it before n4). Just my opinion.
No.

Have both. But N4 is my major, I barely touch my Gnex or Nexus S now
No ways that I am going back
not even in my wildest dreams...hell no
My GNexus died. It was great device, i mean it provided great user experience in spite of really average specs (like very poor GPU). I think optimization in case of ti-omap was relatively more advanced than it is in case of snaprdagon s4 pro maybe due to ti's more open policy. Gnex cannot measure up hardwarewise to N4. It can hardly handle more demanding live wallpapers without lag. Its screen is the biggest flaw -grainy, horrible horizontal banding. But still touch responsiveness and scrolling experience is very smooth. To be honest I preferred stock browser experience on my gnex than the one provided with n4 and chrome. Just pinch to zoom and scroll. Literally, heaven and earth difference. But that's the end of gnex's advantages over n4 I noticed so far. I completely disagree with those criticising our lcd-ips screen. It's awesome! I really don't feel the need for 1080p screen. And... 2 GB of ram + 1,5 GHz x4 krait. Why would I downgrade to Gnex? N4 is all I need

Is it still relevant or a good choice to purchase a nexus 4 from play store I'm got a Galaxy Nexus which is in horrid condition cracked screen broken headphone jack horride battery life but with the "nexus 5" coming up should I hold out
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
The Nexus 5 may or may not come but people switch phones anyway so for now I would recommend the Nexus 4.
In fact the battery is just out of this world and standby is even more impressive.
Despite some minor hardware issues such as the speakerphone buzzing sound which you can only hear in a silent place placing your ear to it, it is a really good device.

Like andyabc said and also IMO it's a very good device
However, since the Moto X will be released within two days from now, you should wait a couple of weeks, the Nexus 4's price may hopefully reduce.
