Have been using the nexus 4 in India since March 2013 bought it from the America. It is an amazing mobile super smooth, smart, never stalls has a good battery back up on an avg abt 14 hrs with regular internet use on 3g network. On only WiFi lasts lasts abt 20 hrs with calls. The camera is good, far better than that of the galaxy S3, the flash is effective but, low light imaging is grainy. The screen is full HD very clear and the colours are more real than on most Super AMOLED screens
Am very happy and satisfied with the Nexus 4

Got my Nexus 4 about a month ago on a whim as an upgrade from a Galaxy S (I9000) that I bought used a couple of years ago. Overall I'm pretty happy with the phone - the display is excellent, and performance is very smooth. It's definitely lacking in the battery life department, though. Lots of standby time, decent talk time, but doing anything with the screen on (web browsing, email, etc) drains the battery rather quickly. Add in anything CPU-intensive (games mostly) and the remaining charge drops like a rock. My Galaxy S was better in this regard.
Still, not a bad phone, and I like the vanilla Android UI. I wish something like a Google Galaxy Nexus S4 existed - that would be the best of all worlds (can't stand TouchWiz). Or an HTC One with a normal (8-13 MP) camera and normal buttons (or ditch the buttons and just use soft buttons like the Nexus 4). I guess I will hold on to this one for a while, until something better without big drawbacks of its own comes along.

Please, I got my phone Google nexus 4 since last year December. The issue is that some certain games don't work on it like fruit ninja, temple run, the sim, subway surfers, etc. I know people that have the same phone and they are not experiencing this problem.
I am thinking that since I got the phone barely a month after it was released, maybe the manufacturer left out a few settings that were very important. Someone advised me to do a factory reset and update the firmware. Should I do it? Please, I would be expecting your reply. Thanks.

The camera app does NOT ALLOW for ISO adjusting. Gosh, I read that for the third time in different reviews.

...it's been over eight hours since the 100% charge on my Nexus 4. Made 10 mins of calls, read/sent a dozen emails and ten minutes online. Battery level is now 70%.
So I'm very happy with my Nexus 4.

Coming from a GSII. Nexus 4 is fantastic! Looks, feel, but will purchase a cover - afraid I'll drop it outside...
HOW I STOPPED MY NEXUS 4 VIBRATING FOR EVERYTHING:
For all mail and sms, I selected 'Silent' tone and set vibrate to 'Never'. I downloaded "Light Flow Lite" free from Android Market and used this to set tones, vibration, even choose colour of notification light!
No more vibrate for my emails!
HOW I INCREASED MY NEXUS 4 BATTERY LIFE:
Force-closed and disabled EVERY Google app I never use (I only use Gmail and Google Play, and I surf with Opera Mobile) and uninstalled apps I don't need - some apps are sending info from your Nexus 4 all day, hence battery drain.
Yesterday (before I disabled/removed apps) I left home 7.30am with battery charge 100%. By 1.00pm it was around 15% with average use.
This morning (after apps were disabled/removed) I unplugged charger 5.30am 100% charge. It is now 10.30am. Battery level with similar useage is 84% HUGE difference!
I had wifi and bluetooth off the whole time and I don't use my phone for music or watching movies.
Yesterday, I was contemplating sending it back.
Not now the battery's gone from W.T.F? to A.O.K!
