The LG Nexus 4 is coming to carrier Three in the UK this December on the 13th day of the month, making it the device’s first launch on a carrier, a month after it went on sale on the Google Play Store.

The Nexus 4 is the flagship Android 4.2 device, and is powered by a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor with Adreno 320 GPU, 2GB RAM, 4.7″ True HD IPS+ LCD display, 8 megapixel rear camera, 1.3 megapixel camera, 8/16GB storage, Wi-Fi, HSPA+, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, and a 2100 mAh battery, all packaged in a body made of Gorilla Glass 2 on both the front and back.

The Nexus 4 will be available from the carrier on the Pay As You Go scheme for £399.99, and for £35 a month with an upfront cost of £29 on The One Plan, in both local stores and online, though Three doesn’t mention whether these prices are for the 8GB or 16GB storage variant.

Here’s the full press release.
