    I tried to add to cart and it says:
    Due to high demand, your order could not be processed. Please try again later.

    Google Play is currently experiencing very high traffic. Nexus 4 is not sold out and will still be available for purchase. Please try again shortly. Thank you for your patience.


    Hah, they changed it to "Ships when Available"

    yeahhhh after like 2hrs, finally scored a 16gb!! Kept getting stuck at the shopping cart, yellow message after clicking "proceed" and greyed out. So I switched to IE, add to cart, highlighted the proceed button with tab and kept pressing enter. After 5 mins, it went to check out!

    Took some work but got it. Now to sell my galaxy nexus...

    You can get the S3 for free @ tmobile with a new contract. I just received my S3 and it's a BEAST compared to my galaxy St. I think either way you can't go wrong with either S3 or nexus 4. There are some really nice phones out there that can be had for great deals. Good luck!

    Not really... one thing (the screen) doesn't make a phone better. The DNA is nice, a beast infact, but to claim it's the best Android or non-Android phone is a reach.

    Besides the price... it's definitely software updates. No other Android smartphone gets more timelier updates with stock Android than the Nexus. As far as specs go, there isn't much of an upgrade. The processor is supposed to be faster, but not by much. I'd say the S3 has better battery life and a better camera. The screen is really subjective, I can't tell which one's better.

    That's if you get the 8gb one. the 16gb appears to be shipping faster. *hopefully*

    Mine said 1-2 weeks. I'll probably sell mine since there will be a lot of people wanting the phone before Christmas.

    Don't forget stock android vs touchwiz android. Not sure if my buddy was exaggerating but she said that she had 40+ apps running in her processes on day 1 of getting her S3. Most of it touchwiz apps. Talk about resource hog.

    Are you serious about the processor? This is the biggest spec bump between nexus phone and the nexus 4 processor obliterates the S3 's processor. The Nexus 4 has a snapdragon s4 pro(the same as the HTC DNA). Its not only quad core but has an entirely new generation chipshet compared to previous quad core CPUs(tegra 3). It also has twice the amount of ram as the S3. The nexus 4 screen also much better than the galaxy nexus or the S3. Its not pentile like those two phones so the screen is much sharper. The nexus 4 is considered to have the second best screen in the market behind the super lcd 2 and 3 panels on htc devices.
