What this hardware actually means

Editorial interpretation generated from the device's self-reported fields and our SoC tier database. Cross-reference with the raw fields below; if you spot a contradiction, please tell us.

Platform & performance positioning

The google Nexus 4 reports its platform as mako. The CPU configuration is 4-core, Krait, running up to 384 - 1512 MHz. The GPU is Qualcomm Adreno (TM) 320. Without a confirmed SoC tier mapping for this platform string, we treat the device as unverified. If you're using this entry to compare against a phone you're inspecting, focus on the raw fields below rather than tier-level conclusions.

Day-to-day workload

2 GB of RAM is below the realistic minimum for current Android — expect Android to aggressively kill background apps. 16 GB of internal storage is below current daily-use minimums. Display resolution is 1280x768.

This record reflects Android API level 30 (11). Android 10–11 — increasingly limited; expect some modern apps to refuse to install or downgrade features.

Trust & buying notes

For a second-hand purchase, also verify the security patch date is no more than ~12 months old, the boot count is plausible for the claimed age, and battery health is above 85%.
