For my intended use - streaming MP3 player - it's a great value. The only major fault is the onboard storage of 4GB (1.9GB of user available). Not much room for apps, since Android 4.1 won't allow app transfer to an SD card. After downloading my essential audio, music, and book related apps, I'm down to 0.7GB. This isn't a deal breaker, but 8GB would've been better. On the major plus side, it'll take 64GB mSD cards; so I ordered two. Plenty of room for my music and audiobooks.
Overall, I'm quite pleased with this "MP3 player".

If you already have the Nexus 4, why another Android non-contract cell? Is the Ring smaller?
I was thinking about getting an non-contract Nokia Win phone in the hopes that library WMAs would be easier to download, but I am not even sure that would be the case.
