Nexus 4, months after launch is now available in Singapore.\u00a0 It is available only on the open market without telco subsidy.\u00a0 It sells about S$668.\u00a0 Before this, some parallel importers were selling at S$600-650.\u00a0 It is one of the cheapest smartphone with 4 cores that is the most open.\u00a0 You can get a Samsung Galaxy SIII for the same price.\u00a0 Putting a third party ROM on it is another matter.\u00a0 The current build of CM10.1 is still suffers from sudden lags, which the devs have attributed to the Exynos processor driver.<\/p>\n
Interestingly the LG Optimus G seems to be a close match except for a 13 megapixel camera.\u00a0 Both cameras have non removable batteries.\u00a0 Hmmmm\u00a0 not good.<\/p>\n
At this point I am thinking of replacing my current phone battery.\u00a0 After nearly 2 years of service, I think the battery is tired.\u00a0 I think third party ROMs on Samsung has run its course.\u00a0 But they make oh such nice hardware.<\/p>\n
