    The Nexus 4 requires jumping through a few hoops to get in Ireland, if you are prepared to do, i would go for it.

    I did.

    Spec and screen size are fairly similar. N4 has 2GB RAM, S3 has 1GB I think depending on which model.

    Build quality (materials at least) are better on the N4.

    S3 has a removable battery and expandable storage (16GB max on the N4).

    N4 has stock android (very nice) while the S3 has Samsungs touchwiz (not nice at all IMO but some people like it).

    I've got an N4 and I can't fault it at all.

    Thanks for replies "illdoit2morrow" & "EGriff"
    I'll go for Nexus 4 then, only thing on S 3 now appealing is additional memory slot & little bit cheaper than N4.

    I don't have much experience with the S3 but I have the Nexus 4 and I couldn't be happier with it.

    They're both great phones so you can't go wrong either way.

    For the updates alone the Nexus 4 is worth it if you can live with its storage.
