Anyone gotten a Nexus 4 lately?

I keep waiting for them to come back in stock so I can buy without contract. Just curious if anyone has received one lately.

friend of mine gave up on waiting and had to go to ebay for one. going rate is about $450 right now for the 8gb.

I gave in and bought one from O2 in the UK. Cost me £399 for the 16GB model, but I was happy to pay it.

I could probably still sell it now for a profit.

It's a sweet, sweet device - as is the Nexus 7.

Ordered an 8 GB model on 11/27/12, finally got it on 1/5/13. I've read about people who ordered in December and received theirs within a week, which is kind of messed up.

I generally don't go crazy over smartphones, but the Nexus 4 is really sweet. Still waiting for the official wireless charging orb to become available, hopefully next month. Overall the Nexus 4 feels a bit faster in UI response compared to the Nexus 7.

I would but my current phone does not use a sim card

I was looking at this phone but hesitated due to the lack of LTE (not that I care too much) but now that I educated myself on the different networks and speed capabilities I am not as hesitant.

Thinking of getting off Verizon and the Nexus phone was pretty much the only Android phone I might get since I don't like all the carrier junk, but the no SD card in Nexus lines now bugs me even though it was never a big deal to me before. Primarily it is due to using it for backups, music and podcasts.

I think not having enough stock is one thing, Google not being able to handle webtraffic with crashing cart / ordering system and frequently changing stock numbers / double charging / charging too early / cancel successful orderts and so on - another.

I have a nexus 7 and love it, but i like the sleek design of my motorola razr for a phone
It is pretty powerful as well. I prefer to have the lte.
