Don’t have the money for a Nexus 5 or simply still satisfied with your Nexus 4 and not interested in paying the $349 upgrade fee? Leland Sindt, the owner of thinWood on Etsy has designed beautiful wood backs for the Nexus 4 that can give your old phone a facelift and give you that new device feeling all over again.
They come in a wide variety of wood types, including tiger-eye, curly maple and burlwood. The back only costs $20 and is as easy to install as any other. If you’re unsure of how to pull off a DIY fix just watch the video below to see how it’s done – keep in mind the video shows the repairman switching out a broken glass back. All you need is a screw driver and a few minutes.
