Google cuts price of Nexus 4 smartphone as it launches Nexus 7

Following the launch of the updated Nexus 7 tablet in the UK, Google are continuing their British Nexus blitz by lowering the price of the Nexus 4 smartphone to just £159.
Designed by Google and manufactured by LG, the Nexus 4 was first released towards the end of 2012 but remains a relatively high-end smartphone. Customers can purchase the 8GB version of the handset for £159, or the 16GB version for £199.
In comparison a 16GB iPhone bought off contract will cost you £529 directly from Apple, and a Samsung Galaxy S4 will set you back around £550. Both of these phones may offer slight improvements over the Nexus 4, but this cut in prices by Google still represents incredibly value.
Our review of the Nexus 4 in January 2013 described its build quality as “second to none”, deciding that the handset was attractive enough to rival the iPhone 5:
“Overall, I’d say the Nexus 4 is currently the best smartphone available on the market here in the UK. Android 4.2, combined with the Nexus 4’s powerful hardware, game-changing price and stunning display, is a combination that’s hard to beat,” wrote Alex Masters.
The Nexus 4 includes an 8 MP rear facing camera, a 4.7-inch display with a 1280 x 720 resolution, a quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM.
