Hey forum what's up? So I'm looking to get myself an android (currently using an Iphone 4) and the nexus 4 really caught my eye because it's google and because it's relatively cheap compared to like an s4. I foudn an ad on craigslist for an unlocked 16gb nexus 4 for 240$. Is that a good deal? You guys think I should go for it?

Wait for Android Kitkat... and see what happens.

Wait for the Nexus 5! Worth it in my opinion, I held off buying the 16GB Nexus 4 for $250(all sold out now) because of the Nexus 5 and I think it's worth it.

Know the pricing? If it's 300 or less I can get it. I'm on a tight budget and 240 is kind of the sweet spot for me right now :P Still think I  should wait?

yeah, that and you get latest Kitkat already on it, plus it's pretty fast out of the box, unlike touchwiz or Sense

Indeed. It should be $300 for the base model (apparently 16GB) and it'll be supported for a longer time.

We can be phone buddies! :D
