Google Nexus 4 by LG is official

The Nexus 4 smartphone is official, becoming the latest member of the Google Nexus family.

Designed collaboratively by LG and Google, the Nexus 4 UK release date has been confirmed for November 13th.

Also inside the Nexus 4 is an 8MP front camera and 1.3MP rear cam, 2GB RAM, wireless charging, NFC technology and support for HSPA+ – but no sign of 4G.

It will support NFC and feature a quadcore processor, as well as an 8MP camera. As with all flagship Google products, it will ship with Android 4.2 Jellybean. It's expected to have just 8GB of storage.

It can be preordered from £31 on O2 and Vodafone, and could be available as soon as October 30. That’s just one day after Google is expected to unveil the Nexus 4 officially.

We’ll be covering the event on Monday so stay tuned for full details on the Nexus 4 from Google and LG, and to see what other surprises Google has up its sleeves.
