Dodgyknees Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Was there ever a 32gb Nexus 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Don't think so. Tamuff - Did you consider the Moto G before going for the Nexus 4? Seems a good chunk more money for not a lot more phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I did but I thought for £80 more it was worth it for the better camera (young children, mine of course) as well as the other marginal improvements like processor, screen and general "premiumness".

darrenm Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 (young children, mine of course) Never in doubt Fair enough. Can't beat a Nexus. Just protect that glass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 If I hadnt added the "mine of course" the smart arses of VT would have been queueing up to take the piss Got a bumper ordered but yes, as you say, I'm a bit concerned about protecting the rear glass.

villarule123 Posted December 16, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 16, 2013 I don't use screen protectors, as my S3 will tell you Mine was a freak accident, my leg scrapped a concrete post as I was working, and the screen took all the damage. Now I have the screen facing my leg in my pocket, so the phone case will take any hits next time. I'm quite excited about it coming tomorrow, even though I don't think it's that much of a step up from my S3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Anyone heard any rumours re the S5? It will have pink text. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the phone in my pocket, screen pointing outward when I walked into the corner of a metal table. Took the phone out of my pocket later that day to reveal a pretty hefty smash.

villarule123 Posted December 17, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2013 Do I need to charge my N5 before using it? If so, how long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Yes. This can be achieved wirelessly by putting in the microwave for 5 minutes. The "ding" lets you know when its done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Apparently dropping it from a 6th storey window does the same job. Speed x Mass = Energy or some bollocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Do I need to charge my N5 before using it? If so, how long? That's not been a thing since phones moved from nikel to lithium ion batteries about ten years ago. You are showing your age, grandad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted December 17, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2013 Leave me alone! I'm sure I read someone saying you had to, but never mind. Rev you will be a grandad long before me old man This phone is amazing! It's like a classier, quicker, better quality version of the S3, best of all I won't be tied down to a contract after May and I can keep upgrading my phone every year. Do you think they'll keep them at around £300 in the future? They seem to be getting more popular every year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just swipe down from the top and then select the icon top right, I don't know what's its called. Then it gives you a number of settlings like bluetooth, brightness etc. Your battery percentage is displayed here. Granted it doesn't show all the time but its not a million miles away if you need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
