The Nexus 4(image: LG ) I had planned to do a write up of how my Nexus 4, a 2012 device bought in 2013, was functioning in 2016. Amidst lots of procrastination, someone conned me off the phone . So we will now have to do with a “eulogy”. *** My beloved phone, a Nexus 4, was lost to a con man on the 26 th of February. It is a phone I had owned for 2 years and 4 months. Technically, it was known as the LG E60, or the code name LG Mako . It did not have a pet name. It was a phone that was purchased in the United States in October 2013. It had to be purchased by my pal’s brother, because Google, the company that sells the device, does not accept purchase of the same with debit or credit cards issued in Kenya. While it originally cost about KSh. 33,000, I was lucky enough to purchase the phone at a time Google was having a clearance sale, meaning I got it for KSh. 25,000. The model was later to be replaced by the Nexus 5 in November 2013, hence the clearance.
