Google has officially announced its new Nexus smartphone which is manufactured by LG and is called the Nexus 4. At the same time (although unofficially available in India) the Samsung manufactured Galaxy Nexus is now up for grabs in India for as low as Rs. 18,000.

So far I have confirmed this with two retailers which include Alfa Mobiles Store which is located in Andheri and the second is the Indrapasth Mall which is located near Borivali railway station. This pricing is for the factory unlocked GSM variant.
It is the previous generation Nexus smartphone which means it will be one of the first devices to get the new Android updates. In terms of the specifications the device sports 4.65-inches Super AMOLED display, 5 megapixel rear camera and a secondary front facing 1.3 megapixel camera. The device is powered by a dual-core 1.2GHz Cortex A9 processor and it has 1GB of RAM.
While the Galaxy Nexus will run Android 4.0 ICS out of the box the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update will be available as soon after you boot up your devices as it has already started rolling out to this smartphone. We have to disclose that the device is not officially available in India and hence you will not receive any warranty for purchase and if you are still interested in purchasing the smartphone we suggest you buy a good case which will prevent most damage from accidental drops.
