Google Nexus 4

Esquire prices on the N4 are +6K ... (Vat incl). I Initially got 2 of them from Esquire in December, then 1 from ZakDoc. ZakDoc was cheaper...

Google's latest software update has closed that backdoor, so the few users who are able to take advantage of it to get faster data speeds may want to hold off on updating for now. If you want to keep your Nexus 4's partial LTE intact, you'll have to hope that third-party ROMs restore the hidden feature—likewise, if you were holding out for a software update to make the Nexus 4's LTE support official, this is a pretty clear message from Google: it's not happening.

So could be that the XDA guys can still get it going...
 
Nope, it's not Qi compatible. It's maybe not a bad deal for the portable battery and stuff, but not as a wireless charger for the N4.

Don't know why people go on and on about LTE. LTE is overrated, I doubt the service providers have the bandwidth to make it possible and probably won't for a long time.

Don't really see how you can justify the NEED for LTE over HSPA+ (42mbps/21mbps).

Sure it is a nice to have, but the way people go on about it, you'd swear this phone is unusable because it doesn't have LTE.

You can downgrade the radio firmware and you have the option again.

Still, it is hardly usable: To enable LTE you have to force the radio to LTE Only. Here is the problem with that option, unless there is LTE you have no connection.

Agree 100% how much of a difference does it really make... And the fact that we pay for every KB makes it pointless to justify..

On a side... Bumpers are now available.... And I have stock of the 16GB readily available.
All purchases will include Free Overnight shipping to door, and a Screen protector.
