Nexus 4 vs Galaxy S III vs One X vs iPhone 5: size comparison

0. phoneArena posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:03

One of the interesting things about the LG Nexus 4, which was unveiled about two days ago, is that it is almost entirely based on the hardware of the Optimus G, but LG has given it a radically different appearance...

Nexus 4 every time... Such a great package.

The Nexus 4 looks waaaaaay too much like a GS3, even to the shape of the curves (especially the top one). LG has their own good design, why come so close to samsung's?

35. remixfa posted on 31 Oct 2012, 11:24 8

its neither.

Its following the NEXUS DESIGN language.. amazing since its A NEXUS.

lol

why do people not get it? Its not the "lg nexus 4", its the "nexus 4".

Its NOT "nexus 4".

Its:-

Google Nexus 4 By LG.

It looks nothing like the GS3 other than the fact that it has curves... The curves aren't even that similar. It looks like a Nexus.

That's because Samsung made the Galaxy Nexus and by the looks of it they wanted to keep the "Nexus" design.

Am I the only one who think that nexus 4 look sexier than iPhone 5?

Nevermind... I'll get the iPhone 5 anyway

because of the 4g LTE :P

Yes you are the only one.

16. remixfa posted on 31 Oct 2012, 06:09 18 5

which makes you a fool just like the rest.

HSPA+42 is just as fast and takes less battery

Not for safe work? Her/His picture used to be a girl. I'm thinking it's confused...

26. g2a5b0e posted on 31 Oct 2012, 08:15 8 2

So, you wanna get the iPhone 5 because of the 4G LTE even though it's not available in your country? -__-

27. blingblingthing posted on 31 Oct 2012, 08:15

I have to agree. Just so every one knows. In Antigua my carrier digicel has late here so I am getting 3g / 4gspeeds. Right now iin am charging my HOX like twice in a day. Going to charge now.

Not to say I am mad or would be silly to change os for this. Just saying this so people know.

That's b-c there's no Google Play presence in your country. Same with mine.

32. ddxmms1 posted on 31 Oct 2012, 09:17 1

and here too.

6. wendygarett (limited) 6 days ago posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:28 3

chill dude, you will get the same price on 32gb version soon just like the nexus 7 deal, just be patient ok? lol

4. MeoCao (unregistered) posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:25 2

"probably at Google's request"?

I think Nexus is Google's phone and Google has control of everything: hardware, software, sales...

The partners offer technologies and parts and build the device for a fee and the right to have their name appear next to Nexus branding.

This is cooperation with Google in charge.

9. chkee89 posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:46 1

nexus always the best one.

10. baldilocks posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:48 3

On screen keys = wasted real estate. Didn't like it with the Galaxy Nexus, don't like it with the Nexus 4. The One X and GS3 are a lot better in that regard.

12. Cyan3boN posted on 31 Oct 2012, 05:50 3

your picture is misleading PA. the one x looks shorter than the nexus 4 although its taller theoretically.

19. ScottSchneider posted on 31 Oct 2012, 06:48 1

Yeah.. The Same way the A5 looks good in the pic rather sick when you hold it... Change the pic...

14. bloodline posted on 31 Oct 2012, 06:05 2

iphone looks pathetic.

20. bucky posted on 31 Oct 2012, 07:09

Looks like a phone. Not a tablet.....

23. blingblingthing posted on 31 Oct 2012, 07:45 1 1

No bloodline; the iPhone IS pathetic (in my opinion)

24. BadAssAbe posted on 31 Oct 2012, 08:02

Dont like the on the screen buttons ATM because not enough apps take advantage of them.
Phonearena should have added the LG O. G to the comparison, Thats the biggest rivals it has (both LG LOL)

For 200 dollars more you get (AT&T)
SDcard
Thinner
Shorter
Narrower Phone
Better design
LTE

Conss
AT&T Bloatware
Wireless charging
Nexus Updates

25. remixfa posted on 31 Oct 2012, 08:09 2 1

so what your saying is ...
for $200 more you get.. a different design, an LTE radio that is useless in most markets and and SDcard slot..

sounds like a deal..

NOT.

29. BadAssAbe posted on 31 Oct 2012, 08:31

I know but i really, really like the design.
Pay more for a better design Maybe?

33. nsnk86 posted on 31 Oct 2012, 10:04

man!! this article is about size comparison........ so where is motorola razr series?? its THE thinnest phone compared to these four!!

34. deeoh1084 posted on 31 Oct 2012, 11:20 1

Of course the Nexus 4 is bigger than iPhone 5 b/c it doesn't have the 4.7" screen!! they have the tiny 4" screen instead!! and Nexus 4 packs with quad core w/ 2GB ram while iPhone 5 still using dual core w/ 1GB ram instead! pretty obvious Nexus 4 is bigger but better than iPoop 5
