Interesting, mine is slower, about 3 times. Im on 4.1.2 now, not rooted. FB, Fliboard crashes all time. Screen is minimum and flickers again, battery cannot go over 4 hours. Internet speed, well cannot compare it with SGS3, meaning slower. In one word, very disapointed with this device. :banghead:

Turn off Wifi in standby and it would be alot better
I got a nexus 7 for Christmas and don't even use it because of my nexus 4. I mean sure it has a bigger screen but it's slower and with the latest Paranoid Android update the screen on my nexus 4 is better as well!
I have a top of the line laptop and top of the line smartphone. Where does a dated tablet belong in this scenario? Maybe I could use it to watch Dragon Ball Z at the gym. Or load it up with porn and use it as a mobile fap station.
I think I'm just going to sell it, what do you guys think I could get for it? It's a mint 32gb wifi model.
Thanks a ton XDA!

You can't compare a phone with a tablet, but still I understand what you mean. The Nexus 7 is a value for money tablet with feature pack functionalities, but the screen is not up to par.

Why not use it for porn? Sounds fine to me. 7 inches is a usable size for anything sex-related (badum-tish)
the nexus 7 is much better for gaming(especially tegra optimized games) then the nexus 4.

dont think theres anything right now the adreno 320 can't handle. i mean come on, the unreal engine demo (epic citadel) ran on 60 fps on the N4. so it doesn't really make any difference. and the screen on the nexus 4 is significantly better than on the nexus 7.

My mate ran the spiderman man game on his nexus 7 and it lagged slightly, yet on my nexus 4 smooth as butter, yet it lags with vice city maxed out, not hard lag but in high intensity areas
But a lot of games are optimized for tegra and have added effects and graphics. I don't think he meant that it can't handle it, the nexus 4 is way more powerful. But games look better on the nexus 7.

Maybe wait for 4.2.2, because 4.2 runs like crap on Nexus 7.
I've noticed too that I'm not using my N7 much since I got the N4. For me though, it's more of a convenience thing. I kept close tabs on where the tablet was before I got the N4, but now I'm not caring as much where my wife leaves it.

I absolutely despised the N7. Hated the screen, headphone out sound quality, and the build quality. I bought an iPad for my tablet needs. Most of the time you get what you pay for with the Nexus 4 being an exception. It's a sweet piece of hardware that's definitely under priced.

The Adreno 320 is way faster than Tegra 3, that's not the point. Gaming is still better on a tablet than a phone. Unless you have to tilt the device a lot .

Currently using an iPhone 4s alongside my nexus 7, OK its nice to have best of both world type devices, but I would like to use my nexus to be able to use mighty text type apps so I think its time to grab another android phone, got an option locally a guy wants to swap his galaxy note, but I'm thinking this is pretty close in size, what would you recommend?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Galaxy Nexus all the way. The Nexus 4 is too fragile and not worth the hassle in my opinion. Sure it has a quad core processor and 2Gb of RAM, but honestly.. who uses that on a phone.
I would recommend the HTC One X, but seriously... After some of the stuff HTC have been doing nowadays, I struggle to recommend HTC.
I have an original GNote and can't imagine having any thing else. There is a bigger difference in size then you would think.
And remember "When you go Note, 4 inches is a joke".
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I am finding N4 compliments N7 greatly. Basically you get some great raw power on both devices, but the tegra in the N7 give way for different, but complimentary usage. Tegra exclusive games run with great power, while N4 runs non tegra with even greater power.
Maybe it was a design decision so that both devices have equal usage. XD
Well screen size is also a factor. I am not so interested in watching video on the N4. Still I find myself using both devices at once a lot. N7 definitely being the couch/bed lazy movie viewing device.

Yes in terms of smoothness the nexus 5 is the best when it comes to android phone. My only downside with this phone is the speaker, its volume is just too low.

I must be the only one that likes the camera. Sure things can always be better, but it's way better than the N4 i was used to before. Only complaint is the slow shutter speed. My pics come out great. /Shrug

First full day with mine after messing with it for 6 hours last night. After modding the hell out of it last night I can say I'm really happy with it, I might change my DPI up a little more, at 320 and the icon's are a little too small. Overall though one of the better pieces of hardware I've seen in a while, love the soft touch back.

Yeah, I hear ya bro. I initially was very happy with this phone and I mostly still am. But little things are starting to wear on me and I've been having thoughts of jumping ship.
The community for this phone is surprisingly the least active of any phone that I've ever owned. It's kind of a downer. I understand the whole locked bootloader thing, but it seems like interest is low in this phone but I'm not sure why other than the locked bootloader.
Another reason is the wifi issues. I frequently get the unstable connection message and lately my wifi performance has been terrible. I can't even watch a YouTube video without it constantly buffering.
And it seems like there is no fix in sight from Samsung. Not sure when or if there will ever be a fix.
I got in on that $150 promo code for the Moto X and I'm heavily considering getting one as an extra phone worst case scenario. But if I somehow like it, I might dump this phone and make a little profit in the process. Not sure yet.

I personally wouldn't get rid of your phone either ...You have to remember this phone is still newer, Wait till after Christmas and watch how many more at&t note 3 users come...Development is still young I've seen this stage in almost all my experiences with prior phones.
