Egad! Straight out of left field, Google/LG just dropped a huge surprise on us. We’re still a few months away from the rumored “refresh” but Google’s not wasting anytime. They’ve dropped the price of the Nexus 4 in the Play Store by around 25% or more in:
Australia: $249
Canada: $199
Germany: €199
Spain: €199
Korea: ₩ 359
US: $199
UK: £159
That’s right, starting right now, you can now pick up a Nexus 4 8GB for $200, and the Nexus 4 16GB for $250 — that’s $100-off the original price. No contracts. No long term commitments. Just pure AOSP for the same price as many upgrades.
Keep in mind the Nexus 4 only works on AT&T and T-Mobile’s networks, and doesn’t have LTE functionality (unless you hack it). If you can live with that, then you know what to do. Link provided below.
