I was so hyped to get one, and finally, I did, but then I quickly replaced it with an even better Nexus 4 🙂
My favorite Nexus
Now i know how old I'm 😭
I still have this phone.
I was one of those forced to live with the Verizon version. All you say is true: hugely delayed updates and the free extended battery that came with it always had to be in my pocket for that mid-day battery swap. Still in all, the first Android phone I truly loved. Great throwback dude.
Great phone, at that time seemed gigantic. And the plastic was just good and light. Why should i nowadays wear a stone with excessive metal frame and glass, just for estetica?
“The G O O G L Y apps”
Blast from the past.
Is the status bar taking the colour of the wallpaper?! That should certainly be implemented in the next version of material you!
I remember it being so easy and cheap to swap out the battery and just keep going all day
golden age of Android Gnexus with cyanogen was amazing
My memory of my GNEX was it was buggy as hell on 4.0, especially when using it with the official car doc, which you didn't mention. 4.1 changed all that and it was a great phone until 4.2 made it so laggy it was unusable. But the Nexus 4 was out by then and it was time to move on.
UwU
I still have mine.
That Google Pixel 6 Pro be looking sharp af 😎🤙🏻🔥
