Nexus 4 phone price lowered by $100

Google has lowered the price of the Nexus 4 by $100. The 8GB model is now $199, down from $299. This may be in preparation for the announcement of a new Google phone, presumably to be named the Nexus 5.

Google introduced the Nexus 4 smartphone in November 2012. The phone, designed by Google and LG, has a 4.7 inch display, a Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2 GB RAM, and 8 GB or 16 GB storage memory. The Nexus 4 lacks support for LTE. Otherwise, it's still a competitive phone.

The Nexus 4 is a good choice for travelers. The phone is unlocked, meaning you can use it on GSM networks around the world (with contract and suitable microSIM).

It will be interesting to see if Google continues to sell the Nexus 4 after the Nexus 5 is introduced.

i had it, sold it. the speaker phone sucks so bad. and it wasnt on one, its a common complaint. Its a great phone otherwise.

Samsung seems to do it better- im using what would be called the Nexus 2- or "galaxy nexus" - it also does not have LTE, and its not as fast, but it does have swappable batteries. I do burn through about 1 battery a year.

The Galaxy S3 has LTE, and it has a micro sd card. Just don't rule out that phone either, though it may not come unlocked.
