[QUOTE]Consumers who wanted to grab the LG Nexus 4 may not be able to do so as Korea's electronics firm LG is claimed to have halted the production of the Nexus 4 to make way for its upcoming smartphones.
LG Nexus 4 seemed to have fallen down from priority list of LG as rumours have it that the company seized the production of the smartphone to focus on the development of its future offerings.
One of the upcoming phones consumers must watch out for is the successor of the popular LG Nexus 4. LG may be releasing the Nexus 4's successor next month.
LG hinted that it is planning to develop and release more Nexus devices in partnership with Google and some of it will make a debut next month at the Mobile World Congress event.
LG Electronics SVP James Fisher went off on a tangent during the firm's packed press conference at CES and revealed that the LG Nexus 4 is just "the first of many" Nexus products it is working on, and hinting that the two companies might be secretly developing another smartphone or tablet device.
Fisher said, "Through our collaboration with Google, we launched the LG Nexus 4 smartphone. This is the first of many devices to come from our growing partnership with this very selective company."
Fisher added that the firm will be launching its next generation smartphones at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next month. He said that "at Mobile World Congress next month and throughout the year, you'll see us bring to market more tier-one premium handsets in various screen sizes".
Recent rumours claimed that the successor of LG Nexus 4 will sport a powerful 2GHz quad core processor and upcoming Android Key Lime Pie OS.
The Google-LG Nexus 4 boasts a 4.7 inch screen display with 1280x768 resolution, 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro quad-core processor, 8 MP camera and 2100 mAh battery.
The new Google-LG smartphone runs with the new Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, which equipped the device with new features upgrade such as better camera options and controls. This has become the selling point of the device.[/QUOTE]

Nuke LG
But... I've been waiting for these to come back in stock for ages! It's why I've held off buying a new different overpriced branded phone.
Buy an iPhone. Problem solved.

Well this might be the last if you dickheads stop producing a smartphone that is in serious demand and you idiots seem to seriously underproduce them.
Hopefully I'll get one, my order status is marked as "pre-ordered".
I feel a price hike for people re-selling the N4.
I've got one, I'm posting with it right now.

quit teasing us
LG makes some pretty decent stock android phones thats for sure
So LG [B]WANTS[/B] to be hated?
Couldn't they have just thrown a truckload of kittens and puppies in a incinerator?
Seriously considering cancelling my order now. If LG aren't making it any more then getting a repair or replacement on warranty is going to be difficult.
i don't even get excited for nexus devices anymore
europeans get the shorter stick and retailers are greedy cunts that raise the price to almost twice

That's why you buy off the Play Store, in the UK it's £400 for a Nexus 4 in the Virgin Media shop, yet it's £240 to £280 on the Play Store depending on the model.

I recommended the Nexus 4 to my little sister because I thought it was going to be between 250$ - 300$ like Google said. Then they started to sell it in Finland, we looked it up and... around 700€. Yeah, fuck that. Play Store doesn't work in Finland.

You think you have it bad? Try Australia
The Nexus 10 sold out in 20 minutes of launching last year and they still haven't restocked :v:
The only two devices sold in retail is the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7

We don't even have access to the devices play store and the only devices sold in retail are the Galaxy Nexus and the 32GB Nexus 7. They cost twice as much than in the UK.

There's only playstore in the UK and germany
I got one. Best phone ive ever touched, but fragile as fuck.
anyone else reporting this, something seems fishy here
[editline]11th January 2013[/editline]
you wouldn't just stop making a highly anticipated phone like this out of nowhere
Some online shops have also stopped shipping because Google wouldnt deliver to them anymore.
Read this on XDA.
If this is the case then I don't see Google going with LG for the next Nexus.
I'd have thought Google would have some sort of agreement with LG to supply for a certain amount of time though.

Not that I care, I have one already :v:

Even better in Brazil: no devices store, no Galaxy Nexus and the Nexus 7 is $450~
love my N4
it would be a great shame if they stopped already, I really don't see the point
So this article is based on a rumours, it seems [I]very credible[/I].

You think that's bad? Remember the time I sang La Cucaracha for Paul McCartney?
there goes my hopes and dreams of getting one
I had planned to buy one next month too when my line was able to upgrade to it. Money set aside and everything.
I sold my iPhone with the plan of ordering one of these once they restocked... well...
