Nexus 4, it's $309 here in Canada.

 

No upgrading required, by the way. Very good hardware too, especially for the price.

It's £292.00 :(   http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-Nexus-Android-Smartphone-Sim-Free/dp/B00APXX7D4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1373054420&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+4

I can't access the UK site to purchase the Nexus 4 in the Play store since it keeps redirecting me, but is there any pricing when you click the "shop now" button here?

£279 for the 16gb version and £239 for the 8gb version... Is there a MicroSD input for expanding the storage if so then the 8gb option seems like one I could go for XD Just over my budget... A BIT :)

Nexus devices are notorious for not including a microSD slot. Are you sure that you'll need one, though? Remember that it'll add to the cost if you need to buy that as well.

I already have a spare microSD so yeah... but shame! I have about 6gb of music on my phone... always, so yeah I need it. I love my music XD then after a few apps and pictures taken from the camera, it gets full very very quickly :( I have a Lumia 800 with 8gb and I regret it... I used to have a LOVELY Sony Ericsson with expandable storage with 32gb microSD card.... Not anymore... sad times.

<p>Just ask over at XDA and pretty much any phone can haz Jelly Beanz</p>

<p> </p>

<p>For that price point you might be able to find something like a Huawei Ascend P1 (Great phone for the price, very unknown company keeps price down), if not their Honour is great too and is only like 130-140£</p>

<p> </p>

<p> </p>

<p>You might be able to get something like an Oppo Find 5 (Flagship phone from unknown company, it's great) or a Nexus 4 used or off Ebay though.</p>

<p> </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Btw found this at amazon, would be better than a S II <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009PIZCHY/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=electronics">http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009PIZCHY/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=electronics</a></p>

<p> </p>

Stuff I have I like: Moto G - Superlux HD681 Evo - Monoprice 9927

90% of what I say is sarcasm.

Oppo find 5 is an EXCELENT phone , Oppo was once one of the most premium blue-ray player brands you could get..

 

Other than that the support is kinda bad so no 4.3 ...

 

I would suggest looking at some offers on the Galaxy s2 plus

Isn't the Oppo Find 5 way out of the OP's price range

I was suggesting trying to finding a  used Find 5, from new they're only 300£ : P

Just root it and you'll be fine.
