Ok Now some time for the comparisons. I have been using GS3, Nexus 4 and Iphone 4 for a while now, so have made a few comparisons. I know Iphone 4 is kind of anomaly, but I did not feel like upgrading to IP 5 when it was launched as there was no dramatic change. So bought a S3 instead. Although I have used the my friends IP5 for a while and I can say that I was still not impressed.

1. Processing power

Nexus 4 wins here because of the quad core processing. Shame GS3 is offered only in dual core mode in US. Iphone 5 ranks last here. The top in the list is however Optimus G by LG, have not tried the phone hands-on though. Overall, considering the cost factor, the Nexus 4 is hard to beat. Also the operating system is unique for the Nexus phones, so you get a priority in getting future updates.

2. Display
I personally like vivid colors and bright picture. So I will go with the super amoled display of GS3. However, if you like natural skin tones and colors, better stick with the Nexus 4 or IPhone 5. The display is crisp in Nexus 4. The display size just a teeny bit small than GS3 in case of Nexus 4. The iphone 5 has an odd kind of aspect ratio as well, so if you are into HD video viewing, stick to Nexus 4 or GS3.

3. Built
The built quality and looks are the best on Iphone 5 due to its aluminum casing and gorilla glass display, followed by GS3. The Nexus 4 looks the most fragile of them all. Nexus is also the most bulkiest phone.

4. Battery life
Battery life is almost similar on the Nexus 4 (around 12 hrs), GS3 and Iphone (around 8 hrs) have a decent battery life as well, but still cannot compare dual with quad core processing. GS3 has a removable battery which is kind of an advantage here.

5. Connectivity
GS3 and Iphone both support LTE which is absent in the Nexus 4. So thats a major drawback, atleast in the US, however for India its fine, as we still use gprs, edge and 3g. NFC is present is both Nexus and GS3, but not on iphone.

6. Memory
All the phones have 16gb memory, but only GS3 has the expandable memory slot and OTG, so it wins in this segment. The bad thing is that Nexus 4 does not support OTG as well. So you’re stuck with 16 gb, unless they put the feature in next firmware update.

7. Camera
Camera is the best on Iphone, followed by GS3. I found the camera on the Nexus a bit disappointing. For skype video call, I found the front camera quality to be the best on GS3 followed by iphone 5. The nexus was not per my expectations on the video calling dept, maybe because of the poor front camera.
