TheVerge: The Nexus 4 is absolutely wonderful, but it's also vexing. Frustrating. Annoying. It's easily the best Android phone on the market right now, and has some of the most powerful software that's ever been put on a mobile phone. It's an upgrade from last year's Galaxy Nexus in every way. It's terrific — save for one small thing.
In the US, a flagship phone without LTE is like a muscle car with no wheels. For other networks in other countries, and for the lucky T-Mobile customers out there that are getting great speeds on its HSPA+ network — great. No problem. Go get this phone. But for others — many others — it's hard to imagine buying this device when you know it's a generation behind in terms of network technology.
TechFrag - The Android 5.1 Lollipop update was made available to only select users in March when Google announced the latest update. The update is now being rolled out to additional users of Nexus 5.
There was a battery leak issue with the 5.0 but now it seems it's resolved with the 5.1 update. I have this phone and I have got the update.
"Until now this version was only available for the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013), but developers recently got it working on the Nexus 4 as well."
Hardcore Droid-Usually, when you go to buy a phone, the vital stats will list the number of cores and the clock speed as an indicator of performance, but this doesn’t really tell the whole story. One CPU may be able to process more instructions per cycle (IPC) than another, and it may be able to process them more efficiently. The GPU in a phone is almost never advertised and is usually clocked independently from the CPU, despite being on the same die. It’s usually best to look at the overall performance of the System-on-Chip, but even then things like memory bandwidth can impact performance.
