LG has been having trouble keeping up with demand for the Nexus 4, Google's new flagship smartphone. It has been out of stock almost since its launch day, but a new shipment has come in.
This phone -- the first with Android 4.2 -- can now be ordered from T-Mobile. It sells for $200 with a two-year contract.
The Nexus 4 is also listed in Google Play. This version is sold unlocked starting at $300 without a contract... when it's available. Currently, a note on the Google Play site says, "We are out of inventory. Please check back soon." Many of those who pre-ordered this handset when it debuted two weeks ago were informed that they will get their unit in a few days.
Nexus 4 Overview
This handset built by LG sports a 4.7-inch display with a 1280 x 720 resolution.
The Nexus 4 has a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor with 2GB of RAM.
It runs Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), a new version that brings new features such as 360 degree panorama picture-taking capabilities and Gesture Typing, which lets users glide their finger over the letters they want to type on the keyboard.
The device features an 8-megapixel rear camera, as well as a 1.3-megapixel front-facing one.
Google Play has a version with 8GB of storage for $350, while a 16GB one is $350. T-Mobile's version has 16GB of storage.
