Nexus 4 or S4 mini?

[outostioncen]

Friends my budget is around 25k there are two options set by myself(no need to think about any other one) I.e., Nexus 4 and S4 mini...and I'm so much confused which one I should go for????Please put some light favoring both phones or their merits so that I can chose one by myself......

If you want a non nexus phone, then I'd take the Sony Xperia ZR over the Samsung S4 mini any day.

Righto! I find it baffling that people still do not take Sony seriously. They are making some great devices though their track record with software updates is still quite disappointing. Sony Xperia S is not on the list to get Android 4.3 right?

After using N4 for 2 months, I can say that battery is not something which is great! Although installing custom Kernal's does a pretty good job.

N4 was launched on November 2012 and its hardware upgraded version may launch in October 2013 while s4 is pretty fresh in terms.So n4 may make me feel little updated in future when n5 will arrive. That's my point.Btw I was surfing internet and found blackberry q5 at same price ..what about that, comparing with n4 and s4 mini?

Please maintain a safe distance from Blackberry. Period.

I have used Samsung. I currently use Nexus 4. Believe me, I know the difference. I used to think that Samsung made great phones but after using Nexus I realized that they 'bloat' the UI and the whole Android experience. I would suggest you to get Nexus 4. 16 GB is more than what you think it is. Plus the ease of use will be better than S4 Mini. Regular software updates is another advantage. Touch sensitivity is much better in Nexus 4.

If rooting and installing custom ROMs is something you are not averse to, get the phone with better hardware.

N4 any day. Reasons have been specified above already. Have used blackberry for 3 years and would strictly advise against it.

16GB is not enough. Period. I hate that I can't carry all my music along with me.
