It's pretty clearly from reviews so far that Nexus 4 is just another mid range Android phone.

No LTE, poor build quality, slow CPU/GPU, average camera.

What reviews are you reading? Every review I've read has been praising the build quality, the CPU/GPU performance and the camera.

Engadget and Anandtech.

Engadget complained that the glass back easily cracked and that the camera was average. And we know from Anandtech benchmarks that the CPU/GPU is about half that of the iPhone 5.

So you'll agree that the iPhone 4 & 4S are also poorly built? Lots of people cracked the back screen on those phones.

Nice cherry-picking on the benchmarks. So the second fastest phone in the world is "slow". Gotcha.

Did they actually crack one or were they inferior based on the iPhone and ignoring all of the work they did to make it more damage resistant?

Mid-range phone? Quite the opposite. At least according to most of the reviews. E.g. Gizmodo:

"As of right now, it is officially my favorite phone by a healthy margin. It’s just so fast, so smooth, and the software is great."

NFC, 2 times bigger RAM, gerat build quality, quad-core processor.

Even if you think that iP5 is superior, you have to admit that N4's value / price is way higher.
