My phone does get quite warm, warmer than any I've had before.
Other than that it destroys my old iPhone 4 in terms if performance, just a little painful buying in to another ecosystem but I still have an iPad so I've not lost everything I've spent in the apple ecosystem.

I believe you can get apps that track N4 Play availability.
I've not had any of the reported issues with my N4, I let my kid play a game on it and tbh I didn't think it was any hotter than my Note used to get after a similar play, sound is fine, vol is fine signal strength has been fine with better wifi all around my house than my N7, the camera seems to be pants but that's probably me not calibrating or augmenting properly.
Yep received mine yesterday as well and pretty much same impression from me, just a quick review after using it for about a day. It feels of decent quality, typical polyurethane case but it doesn't feel cheap, I also checked and tugged at it as I know some were saying the grey and black parts can come apart, bit it seems sturdy enough. It looks nice in grey and black with the poetic logo on the side, It's easy to get on and off and fits the phone very well, it does adds grip to it as it's not a slippery finish, the black areas are smooth and the grey a little coarse to add grip, not rough in anyway.
The moulded parts for the power and volume buttons work well and the holes for charger etc are cut out very well, all in all it seems like a good car for the money and a great alternative to the official bumper.
Hmm, I’m getting some strange battery usage at times.
My battery was at 90% when I left for work this morning, I used it a little bit now and then to check a few mails, check facebook, access a few websites. About 90 minutes later I noticed the battery was down to 70%, the stats showed 23% of the total usage by ‘email’. I’d briefly checked a couple of mails but no idea why it has chewed up so much battery.

Just a heads up, on Amazon.com there are some reviewers claiming that liquid armor isn't that protective, amongst all the positive reviews, the bad reviewers seemed to all be Apple users, so I'm not paying them that much heed as they almost certainly didn't apply it properly, in their arrogant haste to get it just working.
It is a non-issue it gets no warmer than my S2 did.
Hands free headphones = gay, get a grip

The vibration on this phone is so weak! I keep missing calls at work even though the phone is on my desk. The phone of the guy further down from me vibrates his desk so much that my desk vibrates. It gets scarily hot when using the gps too, and battery life is poor.
Sounds like you need to root and put a custom kernel on your phone.
My phones has stronger vibrate, undervolted and nevers gets that hot. I can easily get 4 hours screen time on 3G and over 5 on Wi-Fi.

That's what I thought, I read earlier about modding it go get stronger vibrate. Might have a tinker on the weekend.
I have N4 from the beginning of the sales and never experienced any of the issues you have mentioned.
As for loudness, it is louder than my old Gnex.
Jimlad:
Your headphones from gnex don't work at all????
Mine do....so not sure what's wrong.
But I would like to have a headset that I can use to skip music tracks etc.
At the moment click switches player on or stops music and accept calls
To those that got offered a refund on postage for their nexus arriving late.. have any of you actually received the refund? I was told nearly a month ago it would be in my account within a couple of days but still haven't received a thing...
Had mine over 6 weeks, never had to reboot it once and still as fast as the first day i got it..
), the price gouging on that famous auction house etc are ridiculous.
