Any bricked rev11 nexus 4? My rev10 just got bricked, red light. Servive center told me dead battery.
I'm on my second Nexus 4 - first one had strange darker spots on the front bezel, at first thought it was something behind the glass but smudges reacted differently over the two spots so no idea what it was.
On my second phone and it's a Rev10, not sure what the first one was but guessing Rev10 since I got mine from a carrier store here in NZ. This second unit has a bit of a rattle but it's inside the device, not the volume rocker. I have to really shake the phone to hear it but I didn't have anything like that on my first unit. I also have some backlight bleeding along the right edge of my screen. Noticeable when using apps like Google Maps and the top bar that's greyed out - it takes up the height of the greyed out bar. Only really noticeable on grey backgrounds, can't see it on blacks which kind of surprises me. I'm not sure if I should return my phone and try again with another unit. - not sure if I'll get something better or worse.
I guess you got yours from 2degrees or wherehouse stationary,I couldn't wait so I brought mine off trademe. I got a rattle inside mine but overall no issues uk version, how long did your first rma take?
i would rma yours being protected by the CG act.
I think for most of rev10, the build quality is not so good, not to mention the white band of the screen at max brightness and gray background.
i have a rev 10 and a rev 11.
the rev 10 has louder speaker buzz in ear and a whiter screen, but the on the rev 11 the screen could get whiter after time from what ive heard. i havent used the rev 11 long enough to say anything about battery life, but the performance on both is equivalent. i got a rev 11 and it just came as a replacement because the speaker buzz in rev 10 was pretty loud and annoying in call, and sadly on the new rev 11 the speakerphone speaker on the back is messed up and it sounds really bad. also the volume rocker is really bad on the rev 11 i got. i think im just gonna send back the RMA rev 11 and keep my rev 10 because i dont want to deal with it again. i guess ill get over the buzz
ya i know i ended up getting an RMA for the RMA hopefully this one will be issue freeYou must just have another bad one as my rev 11 is definitely better.

Finally I have a newer rev11, listen to music via Google Music doesn't suck battery like a monster like my rev10 anymore
I guess I could post a picture of my 14 Nexus 4 invoices from Google but am feeling lazy as I just woke from a nap.
No I'm not RMAing them all. I bought the phones (tablets too) for profit/resale and in the process kept the best one for myself. Keep in mind the N4/N10 is only available in about 2% of the world's nations so many non-US residents are doing backflips to have one.

Btw, Google doesn't want you to know this (looks over shoulder).

I'm done here. No need to post proof as I really don't care enough.
Absolutely not. I have had 14 different Nexus 4s and am preparing to order a few more. I STRUGGLED to see 4 hours screen on with the rev 10 and usually never made it. The UI was fine but I saw choppiness every so often, especially on Tapatalk. With rev 11 I honestly see about 5 1/2 to 6 hours screen on and Web browsers, tapatalk, etc are much smoother. I have tapatalk set to load 30 posts per page and can load a page and scroll from top to bottom without a single chop, impossible on the rev 10. The improvement is humongous. I'll take a screen shot of my next screen on at the end of the charge.
Now I see why many said they would wait a few months to purchase. This is now a hell of a phone (well was before too) and I can't possibly think of a reason to ever upgrade other than finding a thinner phone with stronger vibrate.

Also, do not worry about the light bleed unless it's severe. It will gradually dissipate over time which will leave you very happy in the end.
can anyone else verify the differences the guy is saying about the different revisions? i am considering doing an RMA
Skipping the glitter back sure helps speeding up production. It would also be interesting if someone can do a tear down and see if the lte chip is still there.
I'll be a bit jealous if rev_11 does in fact have better battery life. But we can always wait a few more months for better hardware, don't we?
