Google Nexus 4 Unboxing
The Google Nexus 4 made headlines because of the combination of top-of-the-line specifications and an affordable price tag. Unfortunately that’s the not case here in the Philippines since apparently the SRP of the Nexus 4 locally is at Php24,990 which is way higher than the $350 US price tag. The good news though is that Smart is offering it at zero cash out with their Unlimited Data Plan 1500 (30 months lock-in). Anyway, one of our good friends, Mike Palacios, got a unit from the US so we were able to do a quick unboxing video. Before that though let’s quickly go over the specs again.
Google Nexus 4 Spec Sheet
- 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Processor
- 2GB RAM
- 8GB and 16GB Internal Storage Options (not expandable via microSD)
- 4.7-inch True HD IPS Plus LCD Display with 1280×768 Resolution

- Can record 1080p video @30fps
