Google and LG has teamed up for the first time to launch the company’s next big flagship device, the Nexus 4, with a crisp 4.7-inches 320ppi display which runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
Google has done something new with its new partner, LG. Both the companies have brought the next Nexus device to the market with an updated version of Android, the Android 4.2, which has got some device specific features like Photo Sphere. The new Nexus 4 comes with a Retina equivalent 320ppi 4.7-inches display, wireless charging and some more improvements.
While the device is tied up with Android 4.2 closely, this marks the new beginning for Google-LG Partnership in the mobile space. It was Samsung which was providing Google with Nexus devices previously, and now, LG has stepped in into the market with Google. This device might directly compete with Samsung’s Galaxy S III.
We’re still not sure about the complete benchmarks of the device, but Google has got a little more to say about the device:
Nexus 4 with Google Now and Photo Sphere
Nexus 4 is our latest smartphone, developed together with LG. It has a quad-core processor which means it’s super fast, a crisp 4.7″ (320 ppi) display that’s perfect for looking at photos and watching YouTube, and with wireless charging you just set the phone down on a charging surface to power it up, no wires needed. While Nexus 4 is incredibly powerful under the hood, it also features the latest version of Jelly Bean, Android 4.2—the simplest and smartest version of Android yet. Starting with the camera, we’ve reinvented the photo experience with Photo Sphere, which lets you capture images that are literally larger than life. Snap shots up, down and in every direction to create stunning 360-degree immersive experiences that you can share on Google+ with friends and family—or you can add your Photo Sphere to Google Maps for the world to see.Android 4.2 brings other great goodies like Gesture Typing, which lets you glide your finger over the letters you want to type on the keyboard—it makes typing fast, fun and a whole lot simpler. Android 4.2 also adds support for wireless display so you can wirelessly watch movies, YouTube videos and play games right on your Miracast-compatible HDTV.
