Recently, the smartphone industry has been full with news of the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One, and older smartphones have taken a backseat. Released in November 2012, the Google Nexus 4 is still one of the most popular Android smartphones on the market, and if you are looking to buy a new handset, the T-Mobile version of Nexus 4 is available for $79.99 from Costco.
The Nexus 4 has been dogged by supply issues ever since its release but now the handset is available in many markets with normal delivery times. The smartphone is popular due to its impressive specifications, coupled with Google's low pricing strategy.
If you are a new T-Mobile customer and sign up for an unlimited 4G data contract for two years, you can buy the Nexus 4 for $79.99. You will also receive $30 credit on your T-Mobile bill. However, the Google Nexus 4 will cost you $99.99 on a two-year contract if you buy the handset on an eligible upgrade.
The Nexus 4 is one of the best Android smartphones on the market, as it combines both powerful hardware and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, which is currently found only on Google's Nexus lineup of devices.
The Nexus 4 packs in a 4.7-inch TrueHD IPS Plus Display with 1280 x 768 pixels resolution and 318 pixels per inch (ppi). A 1.5 GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor with 2GB of RAM powers the handset. The Nexus 4 is equipped with an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera and 1.3-megapixel front-facing snapper. A 2100 mAh battery fuels the device.
The Costco T-Mobile Nexus 4 offer is valid from April 11 to April 16. So if you are interested in buying the handset, visit your nearest Costco.
